The freezing Northeast hasn't been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter, so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota, Florida, my bags were packed before you could say “sunshine”. I left for the land of warmth and vitamin C, thinking of beaches and orange trees. When we touched down to blue skies and warm air, I sent up a small prayer of gratefulness. Swimming pools, wine tasting, and pink sunsets(at normal evening hours, not 4 in the afternoon) filled the weekend, but the best part—particularly to my taste, dulled by months of cold-weather root vegetables—was a 7 am adventure to the Sarasota farmers' market that proved to be more than worth the early wake-up call.
The market, which was founded in 1979, sets up its tents every Saturday from 7 am to 1 pm, rain or shine, along North Lemon and State streets. Baskets of perfect red strawberries; the red-painted sides of the Java Dawg coffee truck; and most of all, the tomatoes: amazing, large, soft and round red tomatoes.
Disappointed by many a broken, vine-ripened( 蔓上成熟的)promise, I've refused to buy winter tomatoes for years. No matter how attractive they look in the store, once I get them home they're unfailingly dry, hard, and tasteless. But I homed in, with uncertainty, on one particular table at the Brown's Grove Farm's stand, full of fresh and soft tomatoes the size of my fist. These were the real deal—and at that moment, I realized that the best part of Sarasota in winter was going to be eating things that back home in New Y ork I wouldn't be experiencing again for
months.
Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight, my happiness deepened when I learned that Brown's Grove Farm is one of the suppliers for Jack Dusty, a newly opened restaurant at the Sarasota Ritz Carlton, where—luckily for me—I was planning to have dinner that very night. Without even seeing the menu, I knew I'd be ordering every tomato on it.
24. What did the author think of her winter life in New
Y ork?
A．Exciting. B．Boring. C．Relaxing. D．Annoying.
25. What made the author's getting up early
worthwhile?
A．Having a swim. B．Breathing in fresh air.
C．W alking in the morning sun. D．Visiting a local farmers'
market.
26. What can we learn about tomatoes sold in New Y ork in
winter?
A．They are soft. B．They look
nice. C．They taste great. D．They are
juicy.
27. What was the author going to do that
evening?
A．Go to a farm. B．Check into a hotel.
C．Eat in a restaurant. D．Buy fresh
vegetables.

The W orld Health Organization warns that millions of people are dying every year from indoor air pollution. The WHO finds that poor cooking, heating and lighting technologies are killing millions of people each year. Indoor air pollution results from the use of dangerous fuels and cook-stoves in the home. To help fight the problem, the WHO announced, new guidelines aimed at reducing household pollutants.
WHO officials say nearly three billion people are unable to use clean fuels and technologies for cooking, heating and lighting. And they say more than seven million people die from exposure to indoor or outdoor air pollution each year. Of that number, the WHO says about 4. 3 million people die from household air pollution given off by simple coal cook-stoves. WHO officials say indoor pollution leads to early deaths from stroke, heart and lung disease. The main victims are women and girls in developing countries, where they usually stay at home and do the household work.
Carlos Dora is Coordinator in the WHO’s Department of Public Health, Environmental and
Social Determinants of Health. He says people should not use unprocessed coal and kerosene (煤油) fuel indoors. He says opening a window or door to let out the harmful air will not improve the situation. It will only pollute the outdoors.
Nigel Bruce is a professor of Public Health at the University of Liverpool. He says researchers are developing good cook-stoves and other equipment to burn fuels in a more efficient way.
WHO experts note some new, safe and low-cost technologies that could help are already available. In India, you can buy an induction (电磁) stove for about $ 8.00. And in Africa you can
buy a solar lamp for less than $ 1. 00. But, this, the agency says, is just a start. It is urging developing countries to use cleaner fuels and increase access to cleaner and more modern cooking and heating appliances.
28. What does “the problem” in paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Indoor air pollution.
B. Cooking habits.
C. Poor cook—stove.
D. Use of natural gas.
29. Why are women and girls the main victims of the indoor pollution?
A. They are very weak in the developing
countries. B. They are more sensitive to the
indoor pollution. C. They are exposed to the
indoor pollution more. D. They are lack of
doing more exercise outdoors.
30. Which of the following is a good way to avoid indoor air pollution?
A. To open a window while
cooking. B. To use unprocessed
coal indoors.
C. To promote the cleaner and modern cooking
appliances. D. To popularize the traditional cook—
stoves in the home.
31. What is the best title of the text?
A. How to prevent pollution
B. How to protect women and girls
C. Indoor pollution kills millions each year
D. The importance of health in developing countries
D
Decision-making can be extremely difficult. Decision-making styles are significantly different. in different cultures.
In any approach to a problem and in any negotiations, the Western world turns to the "I to you" approach while Japan, the "you to you" approach. The former means both sides present their
arguments openly from their own point of view. Naturally, often comes a confrontation (冲突)
situation, which Westerners are very skillful in dealing with. The latter is based on each side trying to understand the other person's point of view. Thus, the direction of the meeting is a mutual (相互的) attempt to reduce confrontation and achieve harmony.
Besides, Western decision-making goes mostly from top management and often does not consult middle management or the worker. However, in Japan great consideration is given to the thoughts and opinions of everyone at all levels. Based on "bottom-up direction", ideas can be created at the lowest levels, travel upward through an organization and have an effect on the final decision.
Difference in decision-making also comes from different communication styles. The Japanese business person works to achieve harmony, even if the deal falls through, and will spend whatever time is necessary to determine a "you to you" approach, communicating personal views only indirectly. They put a thorough job above the Western deadline approach. So the Japanese are thorough in their meetings. Thus Americans are often annoyed by the many meetings in many Japanese businesses. But where the American is pressing for a specific decision, the Japanese is trying to think up a rather broad direction.
On the other hand, once a given agreement is made, it is the Japanese who sometimes wonder at the slow pace in which Westerners carry out the decision. The Japanese are eager to move forward and Westerners, perhaps, lag behind as they take the time for in-depth planning.
32. A Japanese business bases its
decision .
A. on top-down direction
B. on nothing but its workers' views
C. on bottom-up direction
D. only on its top leaders' opinions
33. The text mainly tells us that Japan and the Western
world .
A. face great difficulty in making decisions
B. are different in decision-making styles
C. have all members contribute to a decision
D. have two approaches:"I to you" and "you to I"
34. Which of the following is TRUE of the
Westerners?
A. They carry out the decision once it is made.
B. There are many meetings in their businesses.
C. They work to achieve harmony in doing business
D. They are good at handling confrontation situation.
35. The author's attitude towards Japanese decision-making is .
A. positive
B. critical
C. negative
D. casual

include cleaning up a polluted river, working in a soup kitchen, or tutoring a student. 44 a service experience, students must keep a journal and then write a 45 about what they have learned.
Supporters claim that there are many 46 of service learning. Perhaps most importantly, students are forced to think 47 their own interests and become 48 of the needs of others. Students are also able to learn real life skills that 49 responsibility, problems solving, and working as part of a team. 50 ,students can explore possible careers 51 service learning. For example,if a student wonders what teaching is like, he or she can choose to work in an elementary school classroom a few afternoons each month.
52 there are many benefits, opponents 53 problems with the new requirement. First, they 54 that the main reason why students go to school is to learn core subjects and skills. Because service learning is time-consuming, students spend 55 time studying the core subjects. Second, they believe that forcing students to work without 56 goes against the law. By requiring service, the school takes away an individual’s freedom to choose.
In my view, service learning is a great way to 57 to the community, learn new skills, and explore different careers. 58 , I don’t believe you should force people to help others-----the
