Chemistry is about the smallest things that other bigger things are made of，and what happens when theychange.The word chemistry comes from chemical，which is an example of one type of the very small things that other bigger things are made of.The words you are reading now are made of a dark liquid called ink （墨水），which is written on paper.The paper itself is made out of the chemicals that wood is made out of.Both the ink and the paper were made by different chemical processes.A chemical process is what happens when chemicals come together to make other chemicals，and therefore other things.

Cooking makes chemical changes.Your different ingredients are made of different chemicals，and when you put them together and make them hot and cook them，the chemicals change into new chemicals and the different ingredients make something new.That tomato sauce you're making is made of tomatoes，onions，garlic，salt and pepper.Those ingredients each have their own chemicals and their own flavors，but now with your sauce you've made something different，something that has its own flavor，all the ingredients mixed together，all the chemicals mixed together，something new.

You can smell the chemical changes，too，as they go up into your nose，especially when you forget about your sauce and it doesn't just cook but bums and becomes black and has a really bad flavor.You can't make it better，either，because once chemicals change，they can't be changed back again.

Which country grows the most tea？The answer is India.It grows three times as much as China.Which country drinks the most tea？It's neither China nor Japan.It's Great Britain.

In the wild，tea plants may be 9 meters tall.But a plant grown for market is pruned.Pruning keeps the plant only 0.9 or 1.2 meters tall.This is an easy height for tea picking.Only the two top leaves and bud（芽）of each new shoot are picked.So to make money，tea plantations （种植园） must be huge.

In general，there are two kinds of tea：black tea and green tea.Black tea is fermented （发酵）.In the process，the tea loses nearly all of its healthy parts.Green tea is steamed （蒸） right after the leaves are picked.Green tea keeps its healthy parts.For example，it may prevent heart illness.

How did we get tea bags？The answer：by accident.Tea businessmen used to send samples（样品）in tin（锡）boxes.This was very expensive.One businessman thought of a cheaper way.He sent samples in small silk bags.Customers would open the bag.They would make tea as usual.One customer put the bag into a pot.Then he just poured hot water over it.And the tea bag was born.

Shen Nong was the first to drink tea.He was a Chinese emperor.This was about 2737 B.C.Shen drank several cups of hot water daily.One day something happened.Leaves from a wild tea tree fell into the hot water pot.The next cup was poured.The water was now colored.Shen tasted it.He liked it.He drank it all.Shen was proud of his new drink.He served it to his guests.Word spread.People thought this way：tea is good enough for the Emperor，so it must be good enough for the people.Tea became the drink of China.

Think about what you like to wear on the weekend.There's a good chance that you like to put on a pair of blue jeans.At any moment，about half of the world's population is wearing jeans.But according to a new study，our love for jeans may be bad for Earth.Denim （牛仔布）might be putting some sea animals in danger.

Every time we wash our jeans，tiny bits of denim will flow out of our washing machines，down into the world's rivers，lakes and oceans.

You might wonder：Isn't denim made of cotton，a natural material？How can it become a danger to nature？Well，in the process of making jeans，denim is treated with many types of man﹣made chemicals.Some improve its durability （耐用性）and feel；others give jeans their blue color.

Scientists studied the Great Lakes in America and the Arctic Ocean in northern Canada.They found denim waste in all of the samples （样本）they had collected.It is feared that the harmful chemicals in denim have spread far and wide.Scientists aren't yet sure how these chemicals might harm animals.

In the study，the scientists also washed jeans to see how many bits of denim each pair would drop per wash.The answer was frightening：About 50，000.Not all of them make their way into the environment.Wastewater treatment plants hold back 83 to 99 percent of them.This may sound pretty good.However，one percent of 50，000 bits are still 500 per wash.Now think about the number of jeans around the world and the times each of them gets washed.As a result，a large amount of denim waste still gets into the environment.

Does this mean we shouldn't wear jeans？Probably not" We need to buy fewer jeans and only wash them when we truly need to do it，" says Sam Athey，one of the scientists. " You don't need to wash your jeans after having worn them only a couple of times. "

（1）What influence might denim have on sea animals？ 　 　

A．	It might do harm to some sea animals.
B．	It has no influence on sea animals.
C．	It is good to all the sea animals.

（2）Why do people add man﹣made chemicals when making jeans？ 　 　

①To save the materials and make more money.

②To improve denim's durability and feel.

③To make jeans blue.

A．	①②
B．	①③
C．	②③

（3）How many bits of denim might get into the environment every year？ 　 　

A．	Five hundred.
B．	Fifty thousand.
C．	Too many to count.

（4）What should we do according to Sam Athey's words？ 　 　

A．	We are not supposed to wear jeans.
B．	We need to wash our jeans every day.
C．	We should buy fewer jeans and wash them fewer times.

If you think a 5﹣year﹣old boy is too young to save the pangolins，you'd be wrong.Landon told us nobody's too young to save anything.

When most people decide to buy food, they go to a grocery store. Grocery stores sell many different kinds of food in just one store. Some grocery stores also sell household goods such as kitchen paper, cleaning things, and diapers （尿布）. A grocery store is a convenient place to shop for the kitchen and others.

Although it is comfortable and relaxing to shop at a grocery store, some people decide to buy their food from other places like farmers' markets. At a farmers' market, local farmers sell the foods they grow to customers. The foods they sell often include fruits, vegetables, and meats. Most of these foods are freshly harvested（收获）with no man-made additions.

There are several ways in which farmers' markets are less convenient than grocery stores. For example, packed foods usually are not sold at farmers' markets. Besides, many farmers do not accept credit（信用）cards or checks （支票）as payment for their goods. What is more, most farmers' markets are only open for business once or twice each week. This makes some people not want to shop at farmers' markets, but others are willing because of the fresh and local food there.

Deciding whether to shop for food at grocery stores or at farmers' markets is a personal choice. This choice reflects a person's values about life and about food. Those who value convenience and（多样）will probably choose to shop at a grocery store. People who value freshness and enjoy supporting local farmers will probably prefer the farmers' markets. Luckily, most communities provide choices for both kinds of shoppers.

（1）According to the passage，which of the following may not be sold at a farmers' market？ 　 　

A．	Apples.
B．	Potatoes.
C．	Beef.

C．	grocery stores sell fresh and local food with no man﹣made additions
D．	grocery stores are open for business more often than farmers' market

（3）In Paragraph 3，why does the writer mention that farmers' markets "are only open for business once or twice each week？ " 　 　

A．	To complain（抱怨）about the business time of farmers' markets.
B．	To help readers look for a better farmers' market.
C．	To explain why farmers' markets are less convenient than grocery stores.
D．	To make readers believe that farmers' markets are too uncomfortable to visit.

（4）What's the main idea of the last paragraph？ 　 　

A．	If people want to have more choices，they'll probably prefer grocery stores.
B．	Where a person decides to shop depends on his or her personal values.
C．	If people want to support local farmers，they will probably prefer farmers' markets.
D．	In most communities，people can choose to shop either at grocery stores or at farmers' markets.

Although it's said Van Gogh（梵高）（1853﹣1890）sold only one painting during his lifetime，different theories（理论）exist（存在）.

It is true that The Red Vineyard is the only painting sold during Van Gogh's lifetime，and that was officially（官方地）recorded and accepted by the art world.It's recorded that Van Gogh started painting at 27，and died at 37.His famous paintings were produced after he went to France in 1888，only two years before he died.So it would be clear that he did not sell many.

However，others disagree.The leading Van Gogh scholar（学者），Marc，is one of them.Though the story that Van Gogh sold just one painting still goes around，he insists（坚持说）that Van Gogh sold at least two.

Also，according to the Van Gogh Museum website，Van Gogh actually sold a number of paintings for living during his lifetime.His first money came from his uncle，who was an art dealer（经销商）.In order to help Van Gogh's career（事业），he ordered 19 paintings.And Van Gogh himself would often trade his paintings for food or art supplies（美术用品）when he was younger.

V died in July of 1890.His brother was a wise dealer and saved lots of paintings by Van Gogh.His greatest wish was to make the works more widely known and make much money.Sadly he himself died just six months later.He left a large collection of art to his wife，who "sold some of Van Gogh's works，lent as many as she could to exhibitions，and published（出版）many of Van Gogh's letters to his brother.Without her，Van Gogh would never have become as famous as he is today." After her death，her son founded the Van Gogh Museum.

We see humans all around us.But when was the first human seen？Early humans did not leave behind any written records.However，they left behind many paintings on the walls of the caves（洞穴）where they lived.These paintings tell about their life，and we know these early humans walked on four limbs（四肢）like apes（猿）.Also，they did not live at one place but moved from place to place in search of food and water.

Without any tools，early humans used stones，bones of animals，and sharp pieces of wood to dig，hunt and cut their food.They also used these to protect themselves from animals.Since stones were used to make tools，this age was called Stone Age.

With time going，tools made of bones and stones were replaced with metal（金属的）ones which were stronger，sharper，and long﹣lasting.Metals were also used for farming and making knives.Copper（铜）was the first metal to be used.

The first fire that early humans noticed was natural fire caused by lightning（闪电）.With fire，early humans could light up dark caves.They could keep themselves warm during cold weather and cook meat.Also the fire could drive animals away.

Early humans noticed new trees growing from the seeds（种子）that fell to the ground from the fruits.This gave them the idea that they could make their own food by planting seeds，which led to farming.With the beginning of farming，early humans began to settle down（定居）.They moved out of the caves and lived on farms and near their fields together，then the first villages came up.

Raising animals was a big event in human history that changed the life of early humans.The wild dogs were probably the first animal to be raised.As time went，goats，sheep，cows，donkeys，and horses were kept，too.This led to herding（畜牧业）.Milk，meat and wool came from these animals.

Isn't fast food delicious？Aren't fast food restaurants cool？ ...The answer to these questions is yes.

However，there are growing facts that fast food is one of the worst parts of modern life.And studies have shown that burgers and fried chicken，which we enjoy so much，can cause a lot of health problems.

In spite of （尽管） this，why are fast food restaurants so attractive（吸引人的）？The first and most important reason is that their service is fast.Their staff（员工）are friendly and very smart﹣looking in their clean and bright uniforms（制服）.Moreover，most fast food restaurants are near places that people always pass by.It is so easy to graba burger and eat on the way to work.

Fast food is often so conveniently packed（包装方便）that it will not cause a mess even if you stand and eat it.Fast food restaurants are also very clean.A lot of clever ads（广告）have made them the coolest places in town，but none of them has ever told and will never tell you that too much fast food is not good for your health.

Such attractive places are selling junk food!Isn't it a pity？Is there a way to change the fast food restaurants into special places where you get the best possible，healthy and fresh food？

Well，why not？

As people realize the health problems that fast food causes，it is quite likely that fast food restaurants may go out of date.It may happen sooner or later.

Therefore，instead of resisting（抵制）fast food restaurants，a better idea may be to persuade（说服）them to change their menu!Fast food restaurants can be places to go to when you want to eat something that will be good for your body.If they could combine（结合）healthy food with their speed of service，delicious tastes and comfortable feelings，that will be the next best thing on the earth for the human beings!

（1）What does " this" in Paragraph 2 refer to？ 　 　

A．	Fast food is delicious.
B．	Fast food restaurants are cool.

It seems that food deliverymen （送货员） are always rushing in haste.We can always see them running every minute，and they seem to have lots of things to do the next minute.They wear blue，red or yellow helmets （头盔） and many of them don't follow traffic rules.They drive on the wrong side of the road and run red lights.They use mobile phones when they are driving.

To solve the problem，food delivery service companies need to do some changes.Some cities are also taking action.Shanghai has asked companies to train their deliverymen on traffic rules and safety.Now in Shenzhen，if a deliveryman breaks traffic rules more than twice，then he can't do the job for a whole year.
