One day in autumn Squire Gordon, my master, went on a trip into town. John, my caretaker, went with him. I pulled the cart. The weather was rainy and windy, but we travelled happily.
Gordon’s business took a long time. We didn’t leave until late afternoon. The wind was then much higher. My master said to John, “I have never been out in such a storm!” Mr. Gordon and John could not see well in the rain.
We came to a wooden bridge. It was nearly dark. We could just see that the water was over the middle of the bridge. But as that happened sometimes when the floods were out, master did not stop. The moment my feet touched the first part of the bridge, I felt sure there was something wrong. I dare (敢于) not go forward, and I made a dead stop. “Go on, Black Beauty,” said my master, and he gave me a touch with the whip (鞭子), but I dare not move. “Go forward, stupid horse!” He shouted at me and gave me a sharp cut and I jumped, but I dare not go forward.
“There’s something wrong, sir,” said John, and he got out and tried to lead me forward. “Come on, Beauty.” But I knew that the bridge was not safe.
Just then the man on the other side saw us
“Hey! Halloo! Stop!” he cried.
“What’s the matter ” shouted my master.
“The bridge is broken in the middle, and part of it is carried away. If you go onto it, you’ll be into the river.”
“Thank you for saving us, Beauty!” said John. He gently turned me round to the right hand road by the river side. It grew darker and darker, stiller and stiller.
When we returned home the Squire told Mrs. Gordon, “Black Beauty saved our lives. He knew the bridge was dangerous.”

From a black bear and a wild pig to a snake and a bee’s nest, from landslides and thunderstorms to getting lost and car accidents, Zhou You has met various difficulties during his trips. He describes himself as someone who looks dirty in poor clothes with two cameras. However, when he sees a plant, his eyes light up.
Zhou lives a lonely life each year from April to October. He is never home, either taking photos of plants in the mountains or on his way to find plants. As for the rest of year, he never leaves his chair at home, writing down the information about plants that he’s got from his trips for books.
The 60-year-old is a retired professor of a university in Jilin province. His decades of hard work has recently turned into a book series Atlas of Medicinal Plant Recourse in the Northeast of China, which is made up of nine books about over 1,800 wild medicinal plants with 5.5 million words and over 13,000 photos. It has been well known as Northeast China’s modern version (版本) of Bencao Gangmu, an encyclopedic work of medicine and natural history, by Li Shizhen from the Ming Dynasty.
During his first trip to Changbai Mountain, he was deeply impressed by its beauty. He started to collect information about plants in his 20s when he realized that the information of many plant species was incomplete. Since then, he has decided to visit the mountain and take photos of the plants and their environment to fill in the missing parts.
The book series is believed to have important reference (参考) value for experts who study medicinal plants in Northeast China and it provides first-hand information for the development, usage and protection of the plants in the area.
33. What do we know about Zhou You’s work from the first two paragraphs
A. Danger is part of his field work. B. His work is to take photos of plants.
C. He takes plants home for further study. D. He feels lonely working in the mountain.
34. Why does the writer mention Bencao Gangmu in Paragraph 3
A. Bencao Gangmu is a well-known historic book.
B. Zhou’s book is thought to be as important as Bencao Gangmu.
C. Zhou’s book is an important part of Bencao Gangmu.
D. Bencao Gangmu is also about medicine and natural history.
35. Why does the writer include the last paragraph
A. To tell how the experts make good use of Zhou You’s book series.
B. To praise Zhou You’s famous book and his great life achievements.
C To show the influence of Zhou’s book on the research of medicinal plants.
D. To explain why people accept Zhou You’s information about medicinal plants.

A. It’s never too old to learn. B. The early bird catches the worm.
C. One can achieve success on his own. D. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
(D)
As we all know, eating vegetables is good for us, but why do some people like them while others don’t A new study has found that other people’s likes and dislikes could be a reason. According to the research, people who eat vegetables and show a clear dislike for them can influence others.
People may make facial expressions when eating. How does it affect a person watching them A team of scientists in the UK did a study. They asked more than 200 young women to watch videos of other adults eating broccoli (西兰花). The people in the videos had different expressions while eating. They would smile, seem neutral (neither happy nor sad), or look disgusted.
The study found that when people in the videos look disgusted while eating broccoli, people watching them began to like broccoli less. The opposite was not true, however. When someone had a smile while eating broccoli, people watching them did not like broccoli more.
By watching others, humans learn which behaviors will be good for them. Scientists believe that people might avoid food that looks terrible. In this way, people can protect themselves from eating something bad or dangerous.
The research focused only on adults, but the team believes that the results could also work for children. This means, if children see their parents not enjoying certain foods, including vegetables, they might not want to eat them either.
How does the behavior of adults influence children’s choices of food The team said they hope to understand more about it. This could help find ways to encourage children to eat more healthy foods.
37. What does the underlined word “disgusted” in Paragraph 2 mean
A. Unhappy. B. Surprised. C. Excited. D. Worried.
38. What is the result of the study
A. People may prefer the food others like.
B. Children dislike eating certain vegetables.
C. Young women are easily affected by others.
D. People may not choose the food others dislike.
39. What may the team study next
A. The safety of children’s food.
B. The advantages to encourage children.
C. The influences of parents’ behavior on children.
D. The ways to produce healthy foods for children.
40. What is the best title of the passage
A. Studies on Vegetables Help a Lot B. Eat More Vegetables, Live longer
C. Videos Affect People’s Choices of Food D. Opinions on Vegetables Influence Others

Dear fellow students, welcome to our English Channel today! I’m David, the chairman of Students’ Union. We did a survey on students’ health problems last week. Here are the results.
15% of the students have unhealthy diet, which can lead to obesity and health problems. 30% feel stressed about study. They are under much pressure and often fail in the exams. 55% don’t have enough sleep every day because of the heavy schoolwork. They often stay up late to finish their homework, making it difficult for them to concentrate in class.
To develop good habits, I think we should have more fruit and vegetables every day. What’s more, we can manage our time more wisely so that we can have more time to relax.
That’s all! Thanks for your listening!
