4. Passage SixteenJustin was always prepared.His motto was “Never throw anything out， you never know when it might come in handy.” His bedroom was so full of flat bicycle tires， bent tennis rackets， deflated basketballs， and games with missing pieces that you could barely get in the door.His parents pleaded him to clean out his room.“What use is a fish tank with a hole in the bottom?” his father asked.But Justin simply smiled and repeated his motto， “Never throw anything out， you never know when it might come in handy.”When Justin was away from home， he always carried his blue backpack.He liked to think of it as a smaller version of his bedroom——a place to store the many objects that he collected.It was so worn and stretched that it hardly resembled a backpack anymore.It was full of the kind of things that seemed unimportant， but when used with a little imagination， might come in handy.Justin had earned a reputation for figuring things out and getting people out of otherwise hopeless situations.Many of his classmates and neighbors sought him out when they needed help with a problem.On the first day of school， his friend Kenny， came looking for Justin.“Do you think you have something in your bag that could help me remember my locker combination?” he asked.“I lost the paper it was written on.I have science class in two minutes and if I’m late on the first day it’ll make me look bad for the rest of the year.” Kenny looked genuinely worried.“Relax，” Justin said， taking his backpack off and opened it.“Remember how you borrowed my notebook in homeroom to write the code down? Well， I know how we can recover what you wrote.”He took the notebook and a soft lead pencil out of his bag.The page that Kenny had written on had left faint indentations (旧凹痕)on another page in the notebook.Justin held the pencil on its side and rubbed it lightly over the indentations.Slowly but surely the numbers of the locker combination appeared in white， set off by the gray pencil rubbings.“That’s amazing!” Kenny said.“I owe you one.” And he dashed off to open his locker.How come Justin could help Kenny recover his locker combination?

32. Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.To write his 2010 book， The 5-Factor World Diet， nutritionist Harley Pasternak traveled to the healthiest countries around the world to learn more about what made their meals extra nourishing.He noted that Japanese people ate a wonderful variety of seaweeds， and that Chinese people tried to include at least five different colors in every meal.Pasternak also came away with some valuable observations about how different the North American way of life was， compared with many other countries.For starters， Americans eat much bigger portions than people in other countries.“We don’t prioritize eating seasonally or locally， and we also add lots of salt， sugar and thickening agents to our foods，” explained Pasternak.Contrast that to the healthy Mediterranean， Nordic and Okinawan diets listed in Pasternak＇s book.They all seem to stick to the ethos (特质)of regional， seasonal produce.For example， a traditional Mediterranean diet includes fruits， vegetables， whole grains， nuts and olive oil as the main components of nutritional intake.Fish， chicken and red wine make moderate appearances， while red meat， salt and sugar are used much less often.The benefits of a traditional Mediterranean diet have been studied since the 1970s， and researchers have found that living that olive oil life can help people lose weight， lower their heart disease risk and reverse diabetes.Most other healthy eating cultures also make meals an event—say， multiple courses around the family table， or a glass or two of red wine at a long lunch—opposed to hastily wolfing down handfuls of cereal above the kitchen sink and calling it dinner.Each of the healthy eating cultures has its own unique feature.But Pasternak did take note of one unifying factor in all of the healthy societies he observed.“The only overlapping feature in most of these healthy countries is that they all walk way more than the average American，” said Pasternak.“So really， regardless of what you’re eating， if someone’s walking four miles more than you each day， they are going to be a lot thinner and live a lot longer than you.”What is typical of Americans in the way of eating?

A. 　They emphasize nutrition.C)They prioritize convenience.

B. 　They tend to eat quite a lot.D)They care about flavors.

C. 　They prioritize convenience.

D. 　They care about flavors.

4. Passage TenNowadays， children heavily cling to digital devices such as computers and smart phones.Some spend up to six hours a day on their digital devices.They can be playing games online with people elsewhere， updating their status on social media， texting friends， or looking for the latest apps to download to their computers or smart phones.This worried Martin Strott.He is the headmaster of the Old Hall School in Wellington， England.He was so concerned that he challenged his students to take part in a week of (“digital detox”)， a program to reduce their reliance on digital devices.Mr.Strott told the local newspaper， the Shropshire Star， that too much screen time would affect the development of their social skills.At another interview with a magazine， he mentioned that this over-reliance on digital devices “takes away family time and reduces their chances of face-to-face communication”.The parents are happy with the program.But what about the children? Nine-year-old Fred usually spends around two hours on his digital devices at home after school and around 12 hours on weekends.For him， the digital detox experience was “really hard”.He said that he had been engaged in many interesting outdoor activities organized by the headmaster， but still missed his phone and online games.The idea of keeping children away from their digital devices for a while to prevent too much dependence on them is not particularly new.There have been similar practices in the United States.But are they effective in the long run? According to Mr.Strott， even if kids go back to their digital devices， the hope is that at least they will think about how they will use their time.How did Fred feel about his “digital detox” experience?

5、Next morning， four words from the book--- “take the long view” --- were still in my mind.At my desk， I had a long-view look at my problems.Once more， super-slow reading had given me not only pleasure but perspective， and helped me in my everyday affairs.I discovered its worth years ago … Previously， if I had not been really interested in a book， I would race from page to page， eager to know what came next.Now， I decided， I had to become a miser(吝啬鬼，守财奴)with words and stretch(拉伸，拖延)every sentence like a poor man spending his last dollar.I had started with the practical object of making my book last.But by the end of the second week I began to realize how much I was getting from super-slow-reading itself.Sometimes just a particular phrase caught my attention， sometimes a sentence.I would read it slowly， analyze it， read it again --- perhaps changing down into an even lower gear(速度，变速)--- and then sit for 20 minutes thinking about it before moving on.I was like a pianist studying a piece of music， phrase by phrase， rehearsing(演练，彩排)it， trying to discover and recreate exactly what the composer (作曲家)was trying to convey(表达).
