Is It Worth Buying Organic Food?

Organic food, grown without artificial chemicals, is increasingly popular nowadays.Consumers have been willing to pay up to twice more for goods with organic labels (商标)．However, if you think paying a little more for organic food gets you a more nutritious and safer product, you might want to save your money.A study led by researchers at Stanford University says that organic products aren't necessarily more nutritious, and they're no less likely to suffer from disease­causing bacteria, either.

The latest results, published in the Annuals of Internal Medicine, suggest that buyers may be wasting their money.“We did not find strong evidence that organic food is more nutritious or healthier，” says Dr.Crystal Smith­Spangler from Stanford.“So consumers shouldn't assume that one type of food has a lower risk or is safer.”

For their new study, Smith­Spangler and her colleagues conducted a review of two categories of research, including 17 studies that compared health outcomes between consumers of organic against traditional food products, and 223 studies that analyzed the nutritional content of the foods, including key vitamins, minerals and fats.

While the researchers found little difference in nutritional content, they did find that organic fruit and vegetables were 20% less likely to have chemicals remaining on the surfaces.Neither organic nor traditional foods showed levels of chemicals high enough to go beyond food safety standards.And both organic and traditional meats, such as chicken and pork, were equally likely to be harmed by bacteria at very low rates.The researchers did find that organic milk and chicken contained higher levels of omega­3 fatty acids, a healthy fat also found in fish that can reduce the risk of heart disease.However, these nutritional differences were too small, and the researchers were unwilling to make much of them until further studies confirm the trends.

Organic food is produced with fewer chemicals and more natural­growing practices, but that doesn't always translate into a more nutritious or healthier product.The U．S.Department of Agriculture (USDA) states that “whether you buy organic or not, finding the freshest foods available may have the biggest effect on taste”. Fresh food is at least as good as anything marketed as organic.

4．The new research questions whether organic food         ．

A．should replace traditional food

B．has been overpriced by farmers

C．is grown with less harmful chemicals

D．is really more nutritious and healthier

5．Smith­Spangler and her colleagues found that         ．

A．organic food could reduce the risk of heart disease

B．traditional food was grown with more natural methods

C．both organic and traditional food they examined were safe

D．there was not a presence of any forms of bacteria in organic food

6．Which of the following is relatively healthier according to the passage?

A．Organic chicken and pork.

B．Organic milk and chicken.

C．Traditional chicken and pork.

D．Traditional fruit and vegetables.

7．What is the author's attitude toward organic food?

A．Skeptical.　　　　　 B．Neutral.

C．Unconcerned. D．Approving.

The Global Heritage Fund,a nonprofit organization,aims to protect places of cultural importance in developing countries for the reasons that these countries often have few resources to protect such places and that other major cultural organizations often pay more attention to protecting places in developed countries.For example,UNESCO has 45 World Heritage places in Italy,42 in Spain,but Peru,famous for its ancient Incan buildings,has only 9 World Heritage places.Guatemala has only 3.

The fund recently released a list of cultural treasures in the developing world that are in danger of disappearing.These places are important because they are records of our human civilization.Globalization has created an international culture that is about sameness.But the endangered places are trying to protect the rich differences of human culture throughout history.

One of the fund’s current projects is in Guatemala’s (危地马拉) Mirador Basin,which contains several important examples of ancient Mayan settlements.The buildings are surrounded by forests.

Centuries of tree growth has covered the pyramids and religious buildings,which provides some of the finest examples of the early part of the Mayan civilization (玛雅文明).But this area is in danger from robbers and people cutting trees illegally.Also,over the past ten years,over 70% of the natural environment in the area has been destroyed by fires.

The fund has 3 goals for its Mirador project.One is helping the government obtain UNESCO recognition.Another is establishing permanent protection for the area.And the third is working to make the area a sustainable protected area within 10 years.

To meet these goals,money from the fund will go toward restoring the buildings of El Mirador and mapping and exploring newly discovered buildings.The fund is also paying to train local guides on how to stop theft and illegal tree-cutting.Educational programs are helping to give people in the area the skills they need to have jobs that do not endanger this protected area.

The Global Heritage Fund says we have a duty to the people of the past,present and future to make sure we do not lose these examples of human history.Every country,organization and individual can play a role in helping to protect this rich history.

8.Why does the Global Heritage Fund focus on protecting cultural places in developing countries?

A.They are poor and often ignored. B.They are more important to mankind.

C.They are attractive to tourists. D.They are fascinating and dangerous.

9.Why is protecting the endangered places important in the time of globalization?

A.Because we should create an international culture about sameness.

B.Because the developing world needs them to make money.

C.Because they can help speed up the process of globalization.

D.Because the rich differences of human culture should be preserved.

10.What does the Mirador project mainly want to achieve?

A.Sustainable protection. B.National recognition.

C.Financial cooperation. D.Employment promotion.

11.What can be a suitable title for the text?

A.World Heritage in Danger B.The Global Heritage Fund

C.Every Project Matters D.Every Individual Matters

In a weightless,microgravity environment like space,how can someone with sight or mobility problems navigate on the space station?As scientists continue to push the boundaries of spaceflight and the possibility of human life on other planets,how can we build space infrastructure (基础设施) friendly to all humans?

The Mission AstroAccess project aims to answer these questions,starting with a historic parabolic (抛物线的) flight that took off from Long Bench on Oct.17,2021.A group of 12 disabled scientists,students,athletes and artists launched into a zero-gravity environment as a first step.To get a better idea of what is needed for more inclusive (包容的) space travel,AstroAccess plans to conduct a series of follow-on parabolic flights after the first launch.On these flights,a plane flies up to an altitude of around 32,000 feet and then begins a descent at about 4 miles per second.This quick descent creates a microgravity,weightless effect lasting roughly 30 seconds.Afterwards,the plane climbs back up to a stable altitude,and repeats the process again.

The 12 AstroAccess ambassadors selected for this first microgravity flight included four blind or low-vision ambassadors;two deaf or hard-of-hearing ambassadors;and six with mobility disabilities,all carrying out various tasks in the weightless environment.One of the challenges was seeing whether all members could perform basic safety and operational tasks.The crew also tested whether sound beacons (声信标) could be used for blind members to detect themselves.They are also investigating how American Sign Language will be impacted by microgravity.

“My whole career goal is to make the average person able to go to outer space,where you don’t have to be a crazy trained astronaut with perfect physical abilities and health to visit outer space,” said Brenda Williamson,head of the AstroAccess logistics committee.“I grew up on Star Trek,so the idea of exploration is really important.”

12.Why is the Mission AstroAccess project carried out?

A.To expose the disabled to zero gravity.

B.To train a group of disabled astronauts.

C.To involve all humans in spaceflight.

D.To build mobile space infrastructure.

13.What does the underlined word “descent” in paragraph 2 mean?

A.Going down. B.Going up. C.Taking off. D.Touching down.

14.What do we know about the 12 selected ambassadors?

A.They all have mobility problems.

B.They communicate by sign language.

C.They do scientific research in the lab.

D.They perform tasks in weightlessness.

15.What does Brenda Williamson think of the project?

A.Meaningful. B.Successful. C.Unrealistic. D.Challenging.

Weight loss is a hard topic.Lots of people aren't satisfied with their present weight, but most people aren't sure how to change it.You may want to look like the models or actors in magazines or on TV, but those goals might not be healthy or realistic for you.   16 

So what should you do about your weight control?

   17   The best way to find out if you are at a healthy weight or if you need to lose or gain weight is to talk to a doctor or dietitian (营养学家).   18   If it turns out that you can benefit from weight loss then you can follow a few of the simple suggestions listed below to get started.
