A
When I was at school, our teacher told the class\are what you eat. \friends and Iwould laugh and call each other“ hamburger”(汉堡)and“ biscuits”. Our teacher was trying to show us the importance of eating the right food to stay healthy.
This was 30 years ago when there were big movements to make British people healthier. We started to eat boiled potatoes instead of French fries and drink fat-free milk instead of whole milk. At first I felt my potatoes had no taste at all. But after a while I started to prefer healthier food because I felt stronger and I didnt get sick so often.
So we agree that you become what you eat. Do you know what your friends eat just by looking at them? When you know the effects of different types of food, you can use your knowledge well and eat what you want to become.
Food has been so important to our health. Everyone has their own advice to give, which they have read about or have been told by older people. However, some of these pieces of advice seem to disagree with each other. For example, some say \others say \矿物质) like iron and magnesium(镁).\In fact,what we need to find out is what type of chocolate to eat and how much of it to eat. 36. What did the teacher mean by\
A It's fun to be called hamburger or biscuits B. Your life looks like what you eat C. It's important to eat what you like. D. Your health depends on what you eat
37. Which of the following does the author probably like now?
A Boiled potatoes B Fried chicken C. French fries D. Whole milk 38. What is the author's opinion on advice?
A Refuse it if you don' t like it B. Pass it to your friends.
C. Accept it if you have read about it
D Consider it when making your decision

A world like no other--perhaps this is the best way to describe the world of the rainforest. No rainforest is the same-yet most rainforests can be found in the small land area 22. 5 degrees north and 22. 5 degrees south of the Equator(赤道). You can find rainforests in South America and Indonesia. Other rainforests exist further from the Equator, in Thailand and Sri Lanka.
Rainforests have a great role to play in supporting the world. They are home to a rich variety of plants, birds and animals. Can you believe that 480 varieties of trees may be found in just one hectare (公顷) of rainforest? These forests have around 50% of all the plants, birds and animals on Earth.
Rainforests have their own perfect way for living. The tall trees make a huge umbrella of branches and leaves which protect themselves, smaller plants, and the forest animals from heavy rain,dry heat from the sun and strong winds. Rainforest trees grow in such a way that their leaves and branches, although close together, never actually touch those of another tree. Scien-tists think this is a way to prevent the spread of any tree diseases and make life more difficult for leaf-eating insects (昆虫). To live in the forest, animals must climb, jump, or ly across the branches and trees.The ground floor of the forest is not all leaaves and bushes, like in films, but is actually fairly clear. It is where leaves become food for the trees and other forest life.
Rainforests around the world are disappearing at a high speed. A few thousand years ago, rainforests covered as much as 12% of the land surface on Earth, but today this has fallen to less than 5.3%. We hope that the world governments work together with scientists to use their power and knowledge to keep the rainforests for our existence. 43. According to the text, we can find rainforests in .
