● Set a budget. Before making a plan for the holiday, the most important thing is to set a budget. 1.

● Plan ahead. The first thing you need to do is to be sure of what you need from this trip. Do you want to experience the local culture or just have fun on those sandy beaches? 2.

● Read up before you go. 3. Buy a good guidebook and read up on the culture, history, local attractions of the place. You can read the local publications online or surf the Net for more information. The more you know, the better you can enjoy the place and its traditions.

Carrots are easy to raise and easy to harvest. They taste good. 1.

When people think of carrots, they usually picture in their mind a vegetable that is long, thin and orange. 2. And not all carrots are orange. For example, Paris Market carrots are about five centimeters around. Rome carrots are thin and about twenty-five centimeters long. And Belgian White carrots are, as their name suggests, white.

For the best results, carrots should be grown in sandy soil that does not hold water for a long time. The soil also should have no rocks. To prepare your garden for carrots, dig up the soil, loosen it and turn it over. Then, mix in some plant material or animal fertilizer (肥料).

3. Experts say warm days, cool nights and a medium soil temperature are the best conditions for growing carrots that taste great.

Carrots need time to develop their full sugar content. This gives them their sweetness if you wait too long to pull them from the ground. 4. Usually, the brighter the color, the better the taste.

5. If the winter is not cold enough to freeze the ground, you can grow and harvest carrots the same way as during the summer months. If the ground does freeze, simply cover your carrot garden with a thick layer of leaves or straw. This will prevent the ground from freezing.

A. But carrots come in many different sizes and shapes.

B. They are economic crops.

C. The best time for planting carrots is during the winter months.

D. Weather, soil conditions and age will affect the way carrots taste.

E. The best way to judge if a carrot is ready to be harvested is by its color.

F. And they contain a lot of carotene (胡萝卜素), which the body make into vitamin A.

G. Many people do not know that carrots can be grown during the winter months.

Children in the United States eat too much pizza that some researchers now argue the food should join the ranks of sugary drinks and fast food for the harm they do to health.

In a new study, the researchers found that pizza is a large source of calories, saturated fat(饱和脂肪)and salt in children’s diets.Children should not eat more than two slices of pizza for a meal.and should pair that with salad, rather than with another high-calorie food,the researchers concluded.

“Parents should aim to control pizza consumption(消费), particularly as a snack where it was shown to have a very adverse impact on children, and they should put their pizza dollars toward healthier brands.” said Lisa Powel, director of the Illinois Prevention Research Center.

Pizza has become a matter of focus in recent years for researchers who look at the meals children eat, rather than the nutrients within them.Studies have found pizza is among the greatest sources of calories for children.

“Since pizza remains a common part of children’s diet, we need to make ‘healthy’ pizza.”Powel said.To make pizza healthier, food producers should reduce its saturated fat and salt, and increase its whole grain content,she said.

Whether or not pizza is harmful enough to be picked out as an unhealthy food, the study attracts attention to a larger issue with the modern American lifestyle, said Alexis Tindall, who was not involved in the flow research.Many foods arc eaten too frequently and in large sizes.said Tindall.To solve the problem, people don’t have to give up eating pizza, but instead, they can eat smaller and healthier pizza,she said.

“Make it at home, instead of ordering it out where you don’t have any control over how it’s made.”Tindall said. “When we make it at home, we can choose healthier ingredients,increase the vegetables.reduce fat, and put in less cheese.Pizza doesn’t have to be just pepperoni(意大利辣香肠)and cheese.”

1.According to the research.children shouldn’t eat

A.more than two slices of pizza in a day

B.two slices of pizza for a meal

C.more pizza with French fries

D.pizza along with salad

2.Powel suggests healthier pizza should be made

A.with less salt B.with more ingredients

C.in smaller sizes D.at home

3.The last sentence of the passage implies that pepperoni and cheese

A.are not necessary ingredients of pizza

B.should be reduced by adding healthier ingredients.

C.should all be replaced with healthier ingredient.

D.are not the only healthy ingredients of pizza

4.What is the best title for the passage?

A.Pizza—a real junk food!

B.How to prepare better meals for your kids?

C.Bring in healthier pizza for Americans

D.Discover the harm of eating pizza

Liberal Party leader Justin Trudeau stands with his wife, Sophie Gregoire, as he gives his victory speech after Canada's federal election in Montreal, Quebec, Oct. 19, 2015.

“Tonight I'd like to toast(为……干杯) the future prime minister of Canada: to Justin Pierre Trudeau."

American President Richard Nixon had that to say in 1972 at a state dinner to Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau about his newborn son, Justin. Forty-three years later, Justin Pierre Trudeau has become the second-youngest prime minister in Canada. His Liberal Party(自由党) won a majority in Monday's national election over the Conservative Party(保守党).

Justin Pierre Trudeau came from Canada's political royalty. He is the son of Pierre Trudeau and Margaret Sinclair Trudeau. His father, Pierre Trudeau, served two terms as Prime Minister between 1968 and 1984. His mother, Margaret Sinclair Trudeau, came from a well-known family of politicians. She married the 51-year-old prime minister when she was 22. Margaret Trudeau was known for her partying at New York nightclubs with stars like the Rolling Stones. The couple inspired "Trudeaumania" and was frequently compared to the American Kennedys, another political royal family.

Young Trudeau graduated from McGill University in 1994. He spent his early years as a schoolteacher in Vancouver. He is married to Sophie Grégoire, a former broadcaster. They married in 2007. They have three children.

Justin Pierre Trudeau is promising "real change" in domestic and foreign policy. He told supporters earlier Tuesday that a positive campaign led to the victory.

"This is what positive politics can do," Trudeau said. "Canadians from across this great country sent a clear message tonight."

Mr. Trudeau promises to invest(投资) in rebuilding roads and bridges. He also plans to raise taxes on wealthy Canadians.

Like his father before him, the young Trudeau has already received international attention on his election as prime minister. Major American newspapers like the New York Times and Wall Street Journal published his victory on the front pages. News websites from Le Monde of Paris to the Times of London headlined the return of "Trudeaumania" in their coverage.

1.How old is the new Canadian prime minister?

A. 51 B. 47

C. 43 D. The text doesn’t tell us.

2.Which of the following statement is WRONG?

A. There is more than one American president coming from Kennedy family.

B. Justin Pierre Trudeau will continue the political view "Trudeaumania"

C. Justin’s positive campaign won many voters(选民).

D. Justin Pierre Trudeau has attracted wide attention of the Press.

3.What’s the main idea of the text?

A. Liberal Party has been the leading party in Canada.

B. Justin Pierre Trudeau won a victory in Canada's election

C. A great political royal family in Canada.

D. A new political star and his happy family.
