阅读下列短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的选项中，选择最佳选项。
I didn't want to be a bodybuilding champion. I wanted to be the best bodybuilder of all time.
Deep,deep down ask myself, "Who do you want to be " Not what, but who. I'm talking about thinking it out for yourself, "What makes you happy "
You have to think outside the box. That's what I believe, after all. What's the point of being on this Earth if all you want to be is be killed and avoid trouble
We have so many rules in life about everything. I say break the rules. Don't break the law, but break the rules.
I remember that after I had finished with my bodybuilding career I wanted to act. I wanted to be a star in films. Everyone had the same thought that I couldn't be done. They said, "Look at this body, you have this huge monstrous (巨大的) body, you're overly developed." They thought I wouldn't fit into movies. But I didn't listen to them.Those were their rules. I was completely certain that I could do it.
Then I got my big break (重大转机) in Conan the Barbarian. That shows you should trust yourself no matter what anyone else thinks.
On that movie the director said, "If we didn't have Schwarzenegger, we would have to build one." Then when I did The Terminator, I said, "I'll be back…" One of the famous lines in movie history, all because of my crazy accent (腔调). It just shows that you should never listen to those who say you can't do something.
Don't be afraid to fail. In everything that I have tried, I've always been willing to fail. Don't be afraid of making decisions. You can't be paralyzed (吓倒) with the fear of failure or you will never push yourself. You can push because you believe in yourself and your imagination. You know it's the right thing to do and success will come. Don't be afraid to fail.

阅读下列短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的选项中，选择最佳选项。
Today, the food that you buy comes from many different countries. Have a look in your fridge and fruit bowl and check the origins (来源) of the food. Perhaps there are apples from California, or potatoes from Egypt. You will probably be surprised how far food travels to get to your plate. This journey, from "field to plate", is called "food miles". A food mile is the distance that food travels from the farmer's field to the person who buys the food. Nowadays, food often travels thousands of miles to get to the consumer (消费者). Why and what are the effects (影响) of these long distances
Traditionally, farmers sold their food in the local market so the food didn't have to travel very far. The consumers could go there to buy food. This was good for farmers and consumers. However, there were some disadvantages. For example, consumers could only buy food that farmers produced locally. In addition, they could only get food that was in season. Now, because of modern technology, food comes from all over the world. We do not have to wait for spring or summer to buy strawberries or tomatoes. They are available in winter if we want.
Some countries have to import (进口) most of their food. This is because they have difficult weather. The United Arab Emirates (UAE), for example, gets 85% of food from other countries.
What's wrong with "food miles" Is this not a good way of increasing international trade I believe these miles are worrying for a number of reasons. First of all, because food travels such long distances, we need more planes and ships to move the food. It means we use more oil, so there is more pollution and more global (全球的) warming. In addition, food that travels a long way is not fresh. Tomatoes, for example, are picked early and stored for their long journey, so they are usually tasteless when they get to the consumer. Local food has a better taste, and it also reduces (减少) the amount of global pollution. We need to buy more local food.
(1) What is called "food miles" according to this passage
A．The origins of the food.
B．The effects of long distances.
C．The journey from field to plate.
D．The disadvantages of imported food.
(2) The underlined word "available" in Paragraph 2 most probably means _____.
A．easy to get B．not busy
C．willing to talk D．impossible to get
(3) Some countries have to import most of their food because of _____.
A．long distances B．difficult climates
C．fresh and tasty food D．modern technology
(4) The writer uses the LAST paragraph mostly to encourage readers to _____.
A．buy more local food B．increase international trade
C． travel long distances D．use imported materials
(5) This passage is mainly about _____.
A．how local food travels from field to plate
B．what "food miles" is and its effects
C．how some countries import their food
D．where different kinds of food come from
阅读下列短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的选项中，选择最佳选项。
We usually see ancient plants or insects in amber (琥珀). But recently, a group of researchers found something unusual in amber—a feathered tail!
The tail includes bones, soft tissue and even feathers. It is 37 mm long, which is about the length of a matchstick. It looks like a plant at first sight. But researchers later identified (确定) it as part of the tail of a dinosaur that couldn't fly almost 100 million years ago.
Xing Lida of Beijing's China University of Geosciences discovered the amber in a market in Myanmar in 2015. "It is an amazing fossil (化石) and the finest details of feathers can be seen in 3-D." he said.
The researchers note in their paper that this finding is particularly special because, although dinosaur feathers have been found in amber before, we don't know which dinosaurs they came from. But this time researchers know more.
The tail is likely to belong to a tiny dinosaur called coelurosaur. Famous coelurosaurs include the T-rex (霸王龙) and Velociraptor (迅猛龙)—the latter of which would finally evolve into birds.
So with the "once in a lifetime" finding, can we hope for the possibility of a real Jurassic Park (侏罗纪公园) In the movie series, scientists bring dinosaurs back to life by getting their DNA from blood found in amber.
But Canadian scientist Ryan Mckellar said that although soft tissue and blood of the tail were found in the amber, no genetic material was kept. "The Jurassic Park answer is still a 'no'—this is in the science fiction." he said.
(1) What did a group of researchers find in amber recently
A．Ancient plants.
B．A tail of some ancient birds that couldn't fly.
C．Ancient insects.
D．A tail with feathers that belongs to a dinosaur.
(2) What do you know about the amber
a. It is about 100 million years old.
b. It was discovered in Myanmar.
c. It was discovered this year.
d. It is a valuable fossil.
A．ab B．bc C．ac D．bd
(3) What does the underlined phrase "evolve into" in Paragraph 5 mean
A．come into B．break into C．grow into D．get into
(4) Why is the finding particularly special
A．Because it is the first time that dinosaur feathers have been found in amber.
B．Because researchers know which dinosaur the tail might belong to.
C．Because researchers learned that Velociraotpors evolved into birds.
D．Because researchers learned that there were two types of coelurosaurs.
(5) The movie Jurassic Park is mentioned to _____.
A．talk about the use of DNA in this area
B．call on people to watch it
C．compare different dinosaurs
D．talk about science fiction
