An environmental group called the Food Commission is unhappy and disappointed because of the sale of bottled water from Japan. The water, it angrily argues an public, has traveled 10,000 "food miles" before it reaches Western customers. "Transporting water halfway across the world is

surely the extremely stupid use of fuel when there is plenty of water in the UK." It is also worried that we are wasting our fuel by buying prawns(对虾) from Indonesia (7,000 food miles) and carrots from Sooth Africa (5,900 food miles).

Counting the number of miles traveled by a product is a strange way of trying to tell the true situation of the environmental damage clone by an industry. Most food is transported around the world on container ships that are extremely energy-efficient (高能效的). It should be noted that a ton of butter transported 25 miles in a truck to a farmers' market does not necessarily use less fuel on its journey than a similar product transported hundreds of miles by sea. Besides, the idea of "food miles" ignores the amount of fuel used in the production. It is possible to cut down your food miles by buying tomatoes grown in Britain rather than those grown in Ghana; the difference is that the British ones will have been raised in heated greenhouses and the Ghanaian ones in the open sun.

What the idea of "food miles” does provide, however, is the chance to cut out Third World countries from First World food markets. The number of miles traveled by our food should, as I see it, be regarded as a sign of the success of the global (全球的) trade system, not a sign of damage to the environment.

A. UK wastes a lot of money importing food products

A. British tomatoes are healthier than Ghanaian ones

B. Ghanaian tomatoes taste better than British ones

C. cutting down food miles may not necessarily save fuel

D. protecting the environment may cost a lot of money

We are all interested in equality, but while some people try to protect the school and examination system in the name of equality, others, still in the name of equality, want only to destroy it.

Any society which is interested in equality of opportunity and standards of achievement must regularly test its pupils. The standards may be changed ---- no examination is perfect ---- but to have no external(外部的)tests or examinations would mean the end of equality and of standards. There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in external examinations or in any controls in schools or on teachers. This would mean that everything would depend on luck since every pupil would depend on the efficiency, the ideal and the purpose of each teacher.

Without external examinations, employers will look for employees from the highly respected schools and from families known to them ---- a form of favoritism will replace equality. At the moment, the bright child from an ill-respected school can show certificates（证书）to prove he or she is suitable for a job, while the lack of a certificate shows the unsuitability of a dull child attending a well - respected school. This defense of excellence and opportunity would disappear if external examinations were taken away, and the bright child from a poor family would be a prisoner of his or her school's fame, unable to compete for employment with the child from the favored school.

The opponents（对手）of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils. According to these people, there must be no special, different, academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area: all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection. The selection would be made by people who themselves are probably selected by some computer.

These people are not just against school organization, but are at war with the whole idea of modem competitive society and they are using children in schools for their destructive purposes. There is no reason why we should allow such people to determine the way our schools are organized when it is to the obvious disadvantage of the pupils, of the schools and of our society as a whole.

A. many children who are suitable for a job have no proof of their suitability

D. a bright child doesn't need a certificate a t all to get a good job.

More than I realized, Dad has helped me keep my balance.
When I was growing up, I was embarrassed to be seen with my father. He was severely disabled and very   31 , and when we would walk together, his hand on my arm for    32 , people would stare. I would inwardly feel uncomfortable at the unwanted   33 . If he ever noticed or was    34 , he never showed that he knew.
It was difficult to coordinate our steps — his hesitant, mine   35   － and because of that, we didn’t say much   36   we went along. But as we started out, he always said, “You set the pace. I will try to follow you.”
Our   37   walk was to or from the subway, which was   38   he got to work. He went to work despite illness and nasty weather. He almost never missed a day, and would   39   it to the office even if others could not. A matter of   40 .
He never talked about himself as an object of pity, nor did he show any envy of the more fortunate or   41 . What he looked for   42   others was a “good heart,” and if he found one, the   43   was good enough for him.
Now that I am older, I believe that his idea is a proper   44   by which to judge people, even though I   45   don’t know exactly what a “good heart” is.   46   I know the times I don’t have one myself.
He has been gone many years now, but I think of him often. I wonder if he   47   I was unwilling to be seen with him during our   48 . Now that I am older, I’m sorry that I never told him how sorry I was for my feeling   49   to be with him in public and how unworthy I felt to be his daughter. I think of him when I complain about trifles (something unimportant), when I am envious of another’s good fortune, and when I don’t possess a “good heart”.
At such times I put my hand on his arm to   50   my balance, and say, “You set the pace. I will try to follow you.”
