We all know eating out can be a lot of fun. There’s the experience of having someone wait on your every need,the social aspect of being in a restaurant with friends and,of course,the great benefit of the lack of in—home cleanup.

2We all also know eating out can be expensive,and I’m pretty sure college isn’t the most

financially successful time in a normal person’s life. That’s why eating at home for a majority of meals really is the only option for many college students.   

Eating at home doesn’t have to be dull,boring,or difficult. —It can and should be an energetic,creative experience that transforms the way you look at food. When you cook for yourself, you know exactly how your pasta(意大利面)is going to turn out. You know where the greens in your salad come from. You know the olive oil you’re using really comes from olives that are pressed for the first time. Use eating at home as all opportunity to learn and develop your kitchen skills. I promise you they will remain useful and rewarding for the rest of your life.

Another important concept is to keep in mind that when it comes to shopping for food—less quantity, more quality. Buy base ingredients that are fresh,as local as possible and beautiful,and anything you cook will improve greatly. I promise you will be just as satisfied by eating a little bit less of something with a lot more quality.

I am not saying eating out is a bad thing. But I insist there are many more places that are not worth your cash. Put a little more effort into cooking for yourself at home and you will gain experience and appreciation for the world of food.    

1.. List three benefits of eating out according to the text. (no more than 20 words)

①_______________   ②_______________ ③_____________

2.. Complete the following statement according to Paragraph 2. (no more than 4 words)

Swimming is one of those activities that can be learned early in life. Little children can learn to swim as soon as they walk. In fact, you need the same skills in walking as in swimming. However, I believe that five is the best age to learn. By five or six, a child knows fear of water, a very important thing to know. It’s wise to be afraid, to recognize true danger. Young ones understand that the water can sometimes be very dangerous.

To really benefit from swimming, every swimmer should learn ____________:butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke, and crawl. I feel that one of these—the breaststroke—is different from the others, since some young swimmers use this stroke naturally, without any training.

In swimming, there are certain rules every swimmer should follow:

(1) Never swim alone! No matter how good you are in the water, don’t risk drowning by swimming alone. If you swim by yourself, with no life guards or friends with you, you may get into trouble.

(2) Don’t go beyond your abilities. Most swimmers know enough not to swim too far from the bank or the beach. Showing off by doing dangerous tricks is no good. Swim safely and you will continue to swim and alive.

(3) Don’t smoke. Swimming depends on a healthy body; good lungs are part of it.

(4) Work at any activity that builds muscles.

1.What is the main idea of the passage? (no more than 10 words)

___________________________________________________________ 

2.Please complete the following statement with proper words. (no more than 5 words)

__________________________and the recognition of its danger are sensible.

3.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 2 with proper words. (no more than 7 words)

_______________________________________________________________

4.Why should not you swim alone according to the passage? ( no more than 10 words)

_________________________________________________________________

5.What does the underlined word “it” refer to? (no more than 3 words)

阅读下面短文并回答问题,然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上(请注意问题后的词数要求)。

[1] Fishing is probably the world’s most popular sport. People spend many dollars each year on items like boats and four-wheel-drive vehicles. In addition, they spend money on fishing equipment, bait, fuel and boat repairs. And you can see that fishing can be an expensive pastime. Fishing lovers believe that their hobby is worth it. Others say that fishing is spoiling the environment and that it is a cruel hobby.

[2] Supporters of fishing say that it is a nice hobby. Firstly, of the millions of people who fish for fun, most only catch enough fish to feed their families. They catch fish that are found in large numbers, so there is little danger to the species (种类).

[3] Secondly, recreational fishermen contribute to the economy. They spend money on equipment and other items, and they also spend it indirectly by paying taxes on their equipment and fuel. Those who travel to fishing spots pay for accommodation (食宿) and airfares. This money keeps people in work and provides new jobs each year.

[4] Thirdly, fishing is relaxing and fun so it lessens stress. Instead of turning to drugs or alcohol, it is far better to go fishing. People who are relaxed are generally healthier and much nicer to be near ----- except for the smell of the bait!

[5] Those who _________________ say that there are too many fish thoughtlessly taken from rivers, lakes, streams and oceans. This could lead to the dying out of some species. Modern cars and boats mean that people can fish in remote areas of the world, so no place is safe from greedy fishermen who take both males and females, leaving few fish to produce young.

[6] Those against fishing also say that it is a blood sport, which means that an animal must die so that a human can have fun. Many of the fish caught for sport are not suitable for eating, so they are thrown away. Once hooked, fish have no chance of escape.
