Most researchers may not agree with it. But this spring, experts on health discovered that for some, obesity(肥胖症) is "an addiction like smoking". One month earlier, a lecture showed that food and drug addictions have much in common, especially in the way that both damage the parts of the brain involved in pleasure and self-control.    Earlier this year, some scientists carried out brain-scan studies on children who looked at pictures of chocolate milkshakes (奶昔) and later ate the milkshakes. Children who are regular ice-cream eaters may require more and more ice cream for the reward centres(奖励中枢) of their brains to tell that they are satisfied.    However, meditation and exercise can help the brain to overcome food addiction. Food addicts(嗜食者) should look for alternatives that still give pleasurea fruit smoothie, for example, instead of ice cream.    Food addiction seems to be linked to the types of foods we're eating. It's easier for human body to deal with foods found in nature, not processed(加工的) foods. When a highly processed food is eaten, the body may go uncontrollable. Potatoes are not addictive, but when they are processed into chips, what happens? Products like chips are described as super-delicious foods. They were the right combination of something salty, sweet and fatty along with "mouth-feel".1.Why may regular ice-cream eaters need more ice cream over time?A.To stop being addicted to it.B.To meet the needs of the brain.C.To control the centre of the brain.D.To satisfy the needs of the stomach.2.What does the underlined word "alternatives" in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Replacements.B.Fruits.C.Methods.D.Drinks.3.What can we know from the last paragraph?A.Processed foods are healthier.B.People are born with food addiction.C.Processed foods usually have a better taste.D.Processed foods are usually more expensive.B    According to a recent study in the Journal of Consumer Research, both the size and consumption habits of our eating companions can influence our food intake. And contrary to existing research that says you should avoid eating with heavier people who order large portions, it's the beanpoles with big appetites you really need to avoid.    To test the effect of social influence on eating habits, the researchers conducted two experiments. In the first, 95 undergraduate women were individually invited into a lab to ostensibly participate in a study about movie viewership. Before the film began, each woman was asked to help herself to a snack. An actor hired by the researchers grabbed her food first. In her natural state, the actor weighed 105 pounds. But in half the cases she wore a specially designed fat suit which increased her weight to 180 pounds.    Both the fat and thin versions of the actor took a large amount of food. The participants followed suit, taking more food than they normally would have. However, they took significantly more when the actor was thin.    For the second test, in one case the thin actor took two pieces of candy from the snack bowls. In the other case, she took 30 pieces. The results were similar to the first test: the participants followed suit but took significantly more candy when the thin actor took 30 pieces.The tests show that the social environment is extremely influential when we're making decisions. If this fellow participant is going to eat more, so will I.    Call it the "I'll have what she's having" effect. However, we'll adjust the influence. If an overweight person is having a large portion, I'll hold back a bit because I see the results of his eating habits. But if a thin person eats a lot, I'll follow suit. If he can eat much and keep slim, why can't I?1.What is the recent study mainly about?A.Food safety.B.Movie viewership.C.Consumer demand.D.Eating behavior.2.What does the underlined word "beanpoles" in paragraph 1 refer to?A.Big eaters.B.Overweight persons.C.Picky eaters.D.Tall thin persons.3.Why did the researchers hire the actor?A.To see how she would affect the participants.B.To test if the participants could recognize her.C.To find out what she would do in the two tests.D.To study why she could keep her weight down.4.On what basis do we "adjust the influence" according to the last paragraph?A.How hungry we are.B.How slim we want to be.C.How we perceive others.D.How we feel about the food.C    My grandma is the best pie maker in the world. So when she called me to say that one of her pies was missing, I knew that it was serious. I hurried to Grandma's house and suddenly realized that I hadn't visited her in a long time.    "Start from the beginning," I said. "I cut the pumpkin pie into six pieces," she began. "A pumpkin pie! My favourite kind! This is even more serious than I thought."    I took out a small notebook and a pencil. "Now, when did you last see this pie?" "You mean the whole? I baked it this morning, " said Grandma. "Then the doorbell rang. It was the leaf collector."    "Just as I suspected," I said, writing down "leaf collector". "He stole the pie." "Oh, no," Grandma said. "He just  wanted me to know that he had finished. I gave him a piece for his good job." I put a line through "leaf collector". "Then what happened?"    "When I went outside with his piece, the mail carrier was there. She told me she could smell that pie all the way." "Aha!" I wrote down "mail carrier". "She stole the pie." "No, I gave her a piece myself." "Go on, please." I said.    "Then the phone rang, and it was my neighbour, Gloria Ketchum with the cats." I nodded and wrote "G. K.". "She calls me every day to see if I need anything. So I invited her and her daughter over for some pie."    "Grandma! No one stole the pie. You gave away all the pieces. One to the leaf collector. Another to the mail carrier. You and Gloria each had one. And her daughter's is five."    "Altogether six pieces!" Grandma said. "Maybe it was one of Gloria's cats, or maybe a monster took it." Grandma hid her face in her handkerchief; I couldn't tell if she was laughing or blowing her nose.    I had to search for more clues.    I opened the door of the refrigerator and asked, "What's this?" Grandma looked surprised. "That's it!" she said," I'll just warm it up. You must be hungry from the work, Jane!"    I did find the pie. And it was delicious, just as I suspected.1.Who got a piece of pie for bringing Grandma's groceries?A.The leaf collector.B.The mail carrier.C.The neighbour.D.The author.2.What is Grandma's real reason for calling the author?A.She found a piece of her pumpkin pie missing.B.Someone was needed to look into the strange case.C.The author did well in making the right judgement.D.She wanted to find a good excuse to meet the author.3.Why didn't the author open the fridge at first?A.Because she believed the pie was stolen.B.Because she didn't know where the pie was.C.Because she didn't want to ruin the game.D.Because she thought Grandma made a mistake.4.What does the passage mainly tell us?A.He who laughs last laughs best.B.You are the apple of my eye.C.Honesty is the best policy.D.Observation is the best teacher.D    One of the most popular street food found in China is no doubt the barbecue. A new programme, called Chinese Barbecue, tells the story of this popular food cooked over hot coals on just about every street comer in cities and towns across the country. Barbecued meat is an important part of people's nightlife.    Shown on June 20, the programme has had more than 25 million clicks on the video site . To find the most popular barbecue stalls (摊位), the production team travelled to more than 500 locations in 30 cities across the country. Some viewers compare Chinese Barbecue to Midnight Diner, a Japanese TV programme telling stories from late night informal Japanese bars.    "I'm happy to hear this comparison because Midnight Diner is a good programme, and we share the same topicnight food," Chinese Barbecue's director Chen Yingjie said. "However, they are quite different." He said that Midnight Diner focused more on food itself, though there was some conversation while people were eating. However, the night food scene of Chinese people means joy and a more lively atmosphere. People eating these barbecue snacks develop a feeling of connection, which can be a cure for loneliness.     The barbecue, regarded as the most ordinary and common night street snack, is different from homemade food by mothers as that is a symbol of family and kinship. The barbecue is where you go to become connected to people in society. And unlike official business lunches, during which people are rather polite, the barbecue lets people relax with old friends and new friends, leaving a lasting impression of friendship.    The world, as a whole, holds deep-rooted good feelings toward the barbecue, either for the taste or the warmth produced by fire. "What we should do is to present the Chinese barbecue just the way it is because with its special ingredients(食材), ways of cooking and more importantly, the special environment and people, the world will recognize it and might fall in love with it just as we do," said Chen.1.What do we know about Chinese Barbecue?A.It has been becoming very popular on the Internet.B.It is thought highly of by most of the foreign tourists.C.It mainly talks about the most famous Chinese food.D.It shows the colourful nightlife in large cities of China.2.In which way was Chinese Barbecue different from Midnight Diner?A.It showed more kinds of food.B.It focused more on the diners.C.It showed the eating habits.D.It was less popular than Midnight Diner.3.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A.The importance of the barbecue to family.B.The influence of the barbecue on people's manners.C.The influence of the barbecue on people's lifestyle.D.The role of the barbecue in people's relationship.4.Why did Chen Yingjie choose the barbecue as the topic of the series?A.To show the feature of Chinese food.B.To research a special way of cooking.C.To help the world understand China.D.To introduce the history of the barbecue.第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。    Ketchup(番茄酱) is a magical little dressing. It has a sweet and salty bite and makes just about any food more appetizing. _ So how did ketchup become best friends with French fries? Let's start at the beginning.    _ In fact, the first ketchup recipe did not include tomatoes! Instead the Chinese made it from salted fish. Doesn't sound as appetizing as today's dip, does it? _ In the 1900s it started making its way to everyone's dinner tables and refrigerators when the Heinz family bottled and sold it. Ketchup underwent another makeover in the 1970s with the rise of high-fructose com syrup (高果糖玉米糖浆).America's favourite way to eat vegetables originated not in France as the name suggests, but in Belgium. When French fries made their way onto the scene in Europe in the early 1800s, ketchup, as we now know it, had not been invented yet. Americans accepted the side dish in the 1930s and enjoyed them fried in beef fat. _ There are reports of early adopters dipping their fries in ketchup from as early as the late 1800s, but the trend didn't take off in America until the 1940s. As the popularity of fast food restaurants grew, so did the desire to dip our fries in that tasty red sauce. Fast food restaurants started serving French fries with ketchup. _ A. You can even clean with it!B. We have been hooked since.C. They didn't find ketchup delicious at all.D. Then French fries were invented to go with ketchup.E. In their birthplace, fries are served with salad dressing.F. Red, tomato-based ketchup didn't appear until much later.G. Ketchup has been around for centuries but in a completely different form.第二部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。    I sat with my friend in a well-known coffee shop in a town of Italy.    As we enjoyed our coffee, a man entered and sat beside us.
