2．How to become a better reader
Language and literacy（读写能力） are among humans'greatest inventions．Evolving（演变） over the course of human history，languages are a reflection of our cultural and societal attitudes．Today，surrounded（包围） by social med ia，television，movies，and，of course，books，the ability to read and write is important to expressing one's feelings．Most humans acquire language in early childhood and speak fluently when they are about three years old，but our continued relationship with language gives shape and meaning to our lives．（36）E

Dear Li Ming，
I have received your letter yesterday．Don't worry about you．I'm getting along well with my research works in the lab．But，to my surprising，you say you will give up learn English．The reason are that you have not done well in it recently and you have lost interest．I'm afraid I can't agree with you．I know it is not easy to learn English，and English is widely used in the world today and it will be important tool in your future work．Besides，it is becoming more and more important at our daily life．If you study hardly，you will succeed．Do remember where there is a will，there is a way．

6．Even in the fanciest pizza restaurant，you will never feel weird if you ask for a box to take your leftovers （剩饭）home．In Italy，that will soon apply everywhere，with a new law that encourages restaurants to give people doggy bags，although in Italy it's called a"family bag．"
The new law is designed to reduce food waste and open doors to companies wishing to donate wasted food．Family bags were made to avoid embarrassment at asking for leftovers，turning it from begging into good behavior．
In the U．S．，taking uneaten food home is normal．In the U．K．it is fairly common．To the south，though，this practice is rare．In Spain and Italy，people might take the bones from their meat and give them to their dogs，but culturally，it's not the done thing．Also，there aren't often many leftovers，as dishes are sized according to how much people will actually eat and are rarely too big to finish unless you over-order．
In France，the laws are tougher．Last year，the French began to forbid supermarkets to throw away food．They must either give it away to charity，or make it available to be used as animal feed and compost（堆肥），If they fail to follow the law，they will be fined．
Perhaps Italy's new law is right．Food waste is now attracting international attention，but the only way to really stop it lies in weather individuals are willing to change their ways．If it becomes socially unacceptable to waste food，or to serve a huge portion in restaurants，then we have a chance．

28．What does the underlined word"weird"in paragraph 1 probably mean？B

30．According to the author，how can we reduce food waste？D
A．By introducing stricter laws．
B．By donating food to the needy．
C．By restaurants only serving small portions．
D．By everyone taking action and saying no to it．
31．What's the text mainly about？B

C．How doggy bags come into being．

5．Revealed to the world by the famous British explorer，Dr David Livingstone，in 1855，the Victoria Falls are one of Africa's best-known natural wonders．They form a natural border between Zimbabwe （津巴布韦） and Zambia （赞比亚）．
The falls are named after Queen Victoria by Livingstone．They were known to the native people in the 18th century as："the smoke that thunders"．The waterfall is formed as the two-kilometer-wide Zambezi River spills （溅） over the edge of its giant stone riverbed and falls into the gorge （山谷） below．At their highest point，the Victoria Falls drop a distance of 108m，almost twice as far as the Niagara Falls．As much as 546million cubic meters of water per minute falls over the edge from that height．
Viewing the falls from the Zambian side means that visitors can follow a path that goes right up to the falls．The falls can also be viewed from the Boiling Pot，right in the depths of the gorge at the bottom of the falls．The 111-meter-high Victoria Falls Bridge，a railway crossing，is now a popular place for Bungee jumping．It can be crossed on foot for excellent views of the falls and the winding blue-green waters of the Zambezi River．It is also possible to see the falls from a plane．
The area around the falls is a major game-viewing place．The best time to view the Victoria Falls is between December and July，when the water level is the highest．Contact Addresses Tourist Centre，Livingstone，Zambia Tel：（03）321 404E-mail：zntb@zamnet．zm Website：www．zambiatourism．com
