A
When early humans killed a mammoth, how did they keep the meat before they could eat it all? We don't know; maybe they didn't. But perhaps they preserved their mammoth steaks in salt. However, it is hard to know for sure. We do know for certain that by 3,000 years ago, the Babylonians, Egyptians, and Chinese were all expert at salting. They used salt to preserve food.
For thousands of years, salting had been a common way to preserve food. But for a long time, no one knew why salt worked. Then, in the 1800s, a Frenchman named Louis Pasteur discovered the secret: bacteria. What does salt have to do with bacteria? First, bacteria need moisture to grow and multiply. Salt pulls moisture out of food, so the bacteria no longer have enough moisture. Besides, salt is poisonous to many bacteria. If you cover food with salt, bacteria outside the food will die before they get in, and bacteria already in the food will be poisoned by the salt.
So how do you preserve food with salt? For meat or fish, you pour a layer of salt, then rub it in well. Hams are often made this way. Another way is to alternate layers of food and salt in a big container. The salt will draw the moisture out of the food, creating brine that the food sits in. You'll need to make sure the brine completely covers the food; any food left exposed to the air will spoil. If you preserve cabbage this way, you'll make sauerkraut.
How well salt preserves food depends on how much it is used. The more salt, the longer the food is preserved. Unfortunately, using enough salt to preserve food for a very long time can cause problems. It can make food tough. It can destroy the flavour. And, of course, it can make the food too salty to eat, which is harmful to our health.
Today, even though we no longer rely on salt to keep our food fresh, we haven't lost our taste for salt. We don't want to give up our bacon, salamis, and watermelon pickles!

A.To make an introduction to the topic.
B.To explain our ancestors were very clever.
C.To tell us the ancient people had a lot of food to eat.
D.To show the ancient people were good at preserving food.
2.Which of the following will the author probably agree with?
A.If you want to make a ham, you should keep it in brine.
B.If you want to make sauerkraut, you'd better pour a layer of salt and rub it.
C.To keep our food preserved longer, you should put as much salt on the food as possible.
D.People needn't give up salty food completely as long as they control the amount.
3.What's the author's purpose in writing the text?
A.To explain how the ancient people preserve food.
B.To tell us how salt works in preserving food.
C.To persuade people to give up salty food.
D.To introduce the way of preserving food with salt.

My high school life has been filled with many ups and downs, whether they were social or academic. Even though my current high school was not my first choice, I never regretted attending Southside High School. "Since you have chosen it, then it is the best for you," said my parents.
Up until the junior year I did not realize my capabilities(能力) as a student. Being in the IB programme, I was told that my junior year would be the toughest in all the years of high school. With this "little" piece of information, I walked into my junior year, scared of my grades. As weeks went by, I started to believe that the junior year was not as hard as everyone had said, but I was wrong. My grades were rapidly declining(下降) and by the end of the first term I had had five Cs in seven of my classes! I could not believe it—I did not want to believe it. I tried my best to get better grades myself without any help from anyone, but my pride just made my grades worse. And I had to miss out on one of the most important speech and debate competitions that year. I was heartbroken. I realized that I could not survive my junior year on my own, so I had to get help fast.
Once I got a tutor, my grades went from Cs, Ds, and even some Fs, to As and Bs. I slowly started to gain my confidence back in all of my classes and even myself. By the time the third and fourth quarter came around, I had been on the honour roll twice, and I was receiving awards from speeches and debates competitions.
Southside has taught me to always keep my head up and never give up on myself no matter what life throws at me. I am proud to be a Southside Tiger.

Carrot juice, because of its healthy benefits, is commonly called the "magic juice". It has been found that adding carrot juice to people's diets greatly improves their health. And its delicious taste makes it popular with all members of the family as a beverage.
Carrot juice is one of the richest sources of vitamin A that can be used in the daily diet. Lack of vitamin A can cause dryness and damage to the skin, nails and hair. Drinking carrot juice to increase the vitamin A in the diet is said to be good for many parts of the body, including the bones and teeth.
Drinking carrot juice is thought to be extremely helpful to the liver(肝脏) because vitamin A helps to clean the liver and reduce fat in it. And it is suggested that drinking carrot juice should be done regularly, rather than just from time to time.
Drinking carrot juice is also thought to improve the eyesight because of the vitamin A in the juice. Lack of vitamin A can lead to night blindness, which can be very dangerous, especially when the person is driving a car. An easy way to find out if you are lacking in vitamin A is to walk from a bright room into a dark room. Your eyes may have some trouble in getting used to the change of light if you are lacking in vitamin A.
How can you prepare carrots for juicing? Wash some carrots well in cold water. Scrape(刮) them lightly, but do not peel them, as this will take away valuable vitamins and minerals that lie close to the skin.

"I'm going to miss you so much, Poppy," said the tall, thin teenager. He bent down to hug his old friend and said goodbye. He stood up, hugged his parents, and smiled, trying not to let his emotions get the better of him.
His parents were not quite able to control theirs. They had driven their son several hours out of town to the university where he would soon be living and studying. It was time to say goodbye for now at least. The family hugged and smiled through misty eyes and then laughed.
The boy lifted the last bag onto his shoulder, and flashed a bright smile. "I guess this is it," he said. "I'll see you back home in a month, okay?" His parents nodded, and they watched as he walked out of sight into the crowds of hundreds of students and parents. The boy's mother turned to the dog. "Okay, Poppy, time to go back home."
The house seemed quiet as a tomb without the boy living there. All that week, Poppy didn't seem interested in her dinner, her favorite toy, or even in her daily walk. Her owners were sad too, but they knew their son would be back to visit. Poppy didn't.
They offered the dog some of her favorite peanut butter. They even let her sit on the sofa, but the old girl just wasn't her usual cheerful self. Her owners started to get worried. "What should we do to cheer Poppy up?" asked Dad. "We've tried everything."
"I have an idea, but it might be a little crazy," smiled Mom. "Without anybody left in the house but us, we could use a bit of fun. Let's get a little dog for Poppy."
It didn't take long before they walked through the front door carrying a big box. Poppy welcomed them home as usual but when she saw the box, she stopped. She put her nose on it. Her tail began wagging(摆动) ever so slowly, then faster as she caught the smell.

Dad opened the box and a sweet little dog appeared. ________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2:

Li Hua 第二节
答案：
Paragraph 1:
Dad opened the box and a sweet little dog appeared. She was all white with shining big eyes, a black spot on its forehead making her more attractive. Her new owners gave her a new name, Spotty. Mom took her out of the box carefully, putting her beside Poppy's feet. Poppy's eyes were first filled with surprise and curiosity and then brightened with joy. Looking at this, the parents relieved because Poppy accepted Spotty and their plan worked.
Paragraph 2:
A few weeks later, the boy arrived home from university. The first thing that caught his attention was the happy noise made by Poppy and another dog. When finding the boy went back home from university, Poppy was overjoyed and introduced Spotty to him. The three immediately became just one solid alliance. From their story we can see the fact that happiness among three is much more than between two or just having it alone.。
