What to Eat—and What to Skip—When It Comes to Takeout Food
If the burden on your wallet doesn't bother you much, the effect your takeout habit can have on your waistline just might arouse your attention. Here's the best and worst of the lot for your belly.
Steamed Vegetable Dumplings: Order This.
When she orders Chinese, registered dietitian nutritionist Elisa Zied gets an order of steamed vegetable dumplings. "I often pair them with either chicken and broccoli in brown sauce（I ask for a little saucemade without sugar）or steamed shrimp dumplings," she tells us.
Crab Wontons: Not That!
When you deconstruct crab wontons, it's easy to see why they're a "Not That!" The inside is filled with crabmeat and cream cheese（which is just a fancy, spreadable fat）.The wonton is made of refined flour, egg and salt and the crispy（脆的）coating is a result of a deep oil bath.
Peking Duck: Order This.
Most of the fat from the skin flows out of the duck over the course of cooking, making this a healthier choice than most of the stir-fry dishes available. Order a side of steamed vegetables and serve it with a small scoop of brown rice. Done and done!
Sweet and Sour Anything: Not That!
Anything with “sweet and sour” in its title is a powerful cue that something has been deep-fried and covered in a sickly-sweet pink sauce. If you pair your selection with a side of rice, you're looking at a 1,000-calorie meal.
Summer Roll: Order This.
Summer rolls are steamed instead of fried—and typically filled with lean proteins and vegetables, making them a winning appetizer in our book. Pair them with an order of edamame（毛豆）and a broth-based soup for a satisfying, filling meal.
Spring Roll: Not That!
Spring=deep-fried, which is why we say to skip them! They're filled with fat and calories your belly doesn't
need.

Gerardo Ixcoy is a 27-year-old teacher in Guatemala. He teaches in the area where having electricity is something of a luxury and students have no access to mobile apps or computers, which became a problem when Guatemalan government had to choosedistance education for students at home because of COVID-19 inmid-March.
Gerardo Ixcoy felt that he had to teach those children living far from the digital world. After all, education is a universal right. But what was the solution?
Gerardo bought himself a secondhand tricycle with his savings. Once he had the tricycle, the next step was to change it into a classroom on wheels. He put a roof with a solar panel（太阳能电池板）on it, along with a screen to avoid the spread of COVID-19. He fixed a whiteboard on it so he could explain to the students the basics of primary education：math, the local language and the national language Spanish.
The purpose of the solar panelis to provide constant power for a small loudspeaker so he can teach from a distance. It's a matter of respecting the healthy distance required to be safe from the virus. He, the teacher, stays outside, and the student participates from his or her house.
He tries to visit his students at least twice a week, riding his classroom — cycle. The children he serves say that, although he visits them for only a few hours a week, they look forward to it. They appreciate his visit because they know he has limited time he can devote to them. They must take advantage of it to learn.
4. What happened to Gerardo Ixcoy's students because of COVID-19?
A. They chose to have classes in groups.
B. They had to stop all the classes.
C. They continued to have classes online.
D. They started to learn about computers.
5. Why does the teacher stay from a distance while teaching?
A. Because healthy distance is reqired.
B. Because he doesn't want to see his students.
C. Because he wants to show his authority.
D. Because the local custom reqiries him to.
6. Where did Gerardo Ixcoy teach his students?
A. In his own house.
B. In his student's house.
C. On the school playground.
D. Outside his student's house.
7. What can be the best title of the story?
A. Love breaks down barriers.
B. Hard work pays off.
C. Time is money.
D. Education is the key to success.
C
The shade of a single tree can provide welcome relief from the hot summer sun. But when that single tree is part of a small forest, it creates a considerable cooling effect. According to a study published today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, trees play a big role in keeping our cities cool.
According to the study, the right amount of tree cover can lower summer daytime temperatures by as much as 10 degrees Fahrenheit. And the effect is quite noticeable from neighborhood to neighborhood, even down to the scale of a single city block. “We knew that cities are warmer than the surrounding countryside, but we found that temperatures vary just as much within cities,” says Monica Turner, a professor in the department of Integrative Biology, Wisconsin-Madison University and a co-author of the study.
With climate change making extreme heat events more common each summer, city planners are working on how to prepare. Heat waves drive up energy demands and costs and can have big human health impacts. One potentially powerful tool, the study's authors say, are organisms that have been around long before human civilizations could appreciate their leafy benefits. And those trees may be the secret to keeping the places we live livable.
Essentially, says Turner, roads, sidewalks and buildings absorb heat from the sun during the day and slowly release that heat at night. Trees, on the other hand, not only shade those surfaces from the sun's rays, they also release water into the air through their leaves, a process that cools things down.
To get the maximum benefit of this cooling service, the study found that tree cover must be more than 40 percent. In other words, an aerial picture of a single city block would need to be nearly half-way covered by a leafy green network of branches and leaves.
8. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?
A. Temperatures in cities mainly depend on their green coverage.
B. People living and working in cities must plant trees in summer.
C. Cities are warmer than the countryside because they don't have trees.
D. An area with more trees can be cooler than the other parts within a city.
9. Which of the following problems is caused by extreme heat events?
A. Severe damage of city facilities.
B. Serious human health problems.
C. Residents' growing demands for plants.
D. Unnecessary waste of energy resources.
10. Why are trees crucial to cities?
A. They help shade and cool the cities.
B. They make urban scenery beautiful.
C. They build up city cooling systems.
D. They essentially block and release heat.
11. What can city planners conclude from the study?
A. They should publish the study in a newspaper.
B. They should educate citizens to protect forests.
C. They should plant trees on roads and sidewalks.
D. They should cover nearly half the city with trees.
D
The idea of growing food in a desert would make most people laugh but this is quickly becoming a reality. There are currently two desert farms in the world where quality vegetables are being planted cheaply and easily.
Sundrop Farms, based in South Australia, uses experimental greenhouses to grow tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers. The biggest challenge of growing food in a desert, obviously, is the lack of available water. The researchers at Sundrop Farms have gotten aroundthis problemby using the sun to desalinate (淡化) sea water. It can also be used to control the temperature of the greenhouses.
Without depending on limited resources such as land and fresh water Sundrop Farms has made farming a practice. This can increase the world’s food supplies. Another benefit ofthis kind of farming is that it can be done anywhere, thus reducing the costs of transporting food to distant locations. Yet another benefit is that it reduces the need for pesticides (杀虫剂).
Another experimental desert farm is the Sahara Forest Project, which began in Qatar in December 2012. Greenhouses in the farm are cooled by saltwater. Solar power and other technologies are used together to help make vegetation (植被) grow in the desert environment. As deserts have expanded over recent years around the world due to global warming, this project could solve the problem.
The result form the Qatar project were better than expected and in June of 2014, Jordan agreed to host another one. This will be much bigger than the Qatar project and the project members will have even more opportunities to test their experiments on a much larger scale. It is not clear yet that desert farming resents the future of farming but these projects have shown some success in the field.
12. What does “this problem” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Sea water is bard to purify.
B. The desert is short of water.
C. The temperature is high in the desert.
D. Desert farms aren’t fit to plant vegetables.
13. What is one of the characters of desert farming?
A. It needs more pesticides.
B. It saves delivery costs.
C. It has a location limit.
D. It solves food waste problems
14. What can we know about the Sabara Forest Project?
A. It lives up to expectations
B. It can help produce more food
C. It is started to prevent global warming
D. It uses technology to produce saltwater
15. What can be inferred about desert farming from the last paragraph?
A. It still has problems to solve.
B. It represents the future of farming.
C. Its early success has aroused interest in it.
D. Its aim is to create more job opportunities.

It was a cold December day. After saying goodbye to his neighbour, David, Tom set out for a run with his dog, Taz. As a professional athlete, Tom often went for training runs by himself and had done this particular route many times before, but that day something unusual happened to him.
About an hour later, Tom hit some black ice. He found himself slipping down the rock face, which became steeper（陡峭的）and steeper until suddenly he was in free fall. He fell 60 feet into the canyon（峡谷）, landing on grass and dry branches. If he'd missed them, there was, no way he would have survived. He could feel his legs, so he knew he wasn't paralyzed（瘫痪的）but he was in great pain. Taz had managed to find his way back to Tom, so Tom knew there must be a way out of the canyon, but he couldn't stand or even crawl（爬）. He later learned that he had broken his right leg.
Tom shouted for help, and tried to pull himself forward. Every inch was an effort. It took him five hours to go a quarter of a mile. Eventually it got so dark that he couldn't see where he was going. He decided to stay next to a river which he could drink some water from. All he had on him were his jogging clothes, a water bottle, two boxes of medicine, a bar of chocolate, and a shower cap which adventure racers often wear to prevent heat loss.
At night, the temperature dropped below freezing. Tom couldn't go to sleep or he would die, so he stayed awake lifting his head a few inches over and over. Throughout the night, Taz curled up next to him and kept him company. The next morning, he couldn't move any more. He tried to stay positive. He was sure somebody would find he was missing or hear him screaming for help. But there was nobody around.
Paragraph 1:
As time went by, Tom felt himself growing weaker and he knew he must take action.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2:
About three hours later, Taz returned and Tom heard an engine in the distance.
