You probably know that it’s better for both you and the environment if you buy an organic tomato instead of one that’s been doused in pesticides, but there are lots of other things to consider before venturing down the aisle of your local supermarket (or farmer’s market).

The explosion in　1　produce and other foods during the last few years has been an extremely　2　development in the food industry. However,　3　still exists about exactly what the organic　4　means. Do you know the difference between a cereal that’s “organic,” “100% organic,” and “made with organic　5　?” The USDA has clearly defined standards that　6　which of those labels can legally go on your raisin bran. You can learn more about them at www.usda.gov.

Organic foods are great, but the jury is still very much out　7　another new development in the food world: genetically　8　organisms (GMOs). No one knows for certain the short and　9　effects of these products of gene engineering,　l0　there’s a chance they could lead to the　11　creation of “superweeds” or　12　with natural plant stocks, for more information on GMOs, we recommend visiting www.saynotogmos.org.

13　you’re shopping, don’t forget to consider the companies behind the　14　names. One cereal company might be an environmental champion,　15　the other manufactures its corn flakes via　l6　environmental practices. An easy way to compare two companies is to use　17　such as www. Responsible shopper.com. They present both the good and bad sides of every company they　18　, and they grade hundreds of companies on social, ethical and environmental issues.

Remember:　19　conscious shopping is a powerful tool for effecting change. You can make a difference every time you fill your 　20　cart.

Responsibilities. We all have them; most of us have more than we’d like. That doesn’t change the reality that, sooner or later, we all have to　1　up to them. But perhaps it does explain our　2　to add to the ever-growing list. There’s already so much to do in a day, why tack on an　3　burden?

Unfortunately, it’s this kind of defeatist mentality　4　keeps people from enhancing their lives through proper　5　and exercise. Here is the salient point, though: The health and fitness benefits you’ll derive from　6　the necessary work are worth whatever sacrifices you must make　7　the way. I can’t count how many times I’ve heard the same　8　. Each time, I always give the same response: Yes, I say, working out is work. So is taking the　9　to eat right.　10　yourself on the couch or having drinks with friends after work is a lot easier than exercising, and hitting the McDonald’s drive-thru takes a lot less time than cooking a　11　at home. But channel surfing, margaritas and a Quarter Pounder With Cheese aren’t going to produce some of the things worth having--a low cholesterol level or the　12　to go shirtless on the beach. Those benefits demand a　13　 effort. I’m not saying you should eschew the　14　night on the town or gourmet meal at a five-star restaurant. Both have their　15　and are components of a well-rounded life. I’ve enjoyed my　16　of revelry and fine　17　and look forward to those special opportunities to experience more of the good life. But I’ve managed to find a balance between those　18　.pleasures and a permanent　19　to a regular workout and a healthy diet. Because,　20　, it is the latter that will have a lasting improvement on the overall quality of my life.

A potful of evidence suggests that the antioxidants and polyphenols in tea help protect you from stroke and heart attack, Alzheimer’s disease, arthritis, and cancers of the lung, mouth, breast, pancreas, prostate and skin. The essential oils found in the leaves even aid　1　by increasing the flow of digestive juices.

Now it turns out that tea,　2　chicken soup or echinacea, is what can give your body an extra　3　to help it battle infections.

Given 20 ounces of tea daily, non-tea drinkers were better able to fight　4　bacterial diseases, according to a study at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston. The researchers　5　L-theanine, an　6　found in black, green, oolong and pekoe teas--but not in　7　teas, which usually don’t contain Camellia sinensis, the one true tea　8　.

When broken down by the liver, L-theanine becomes an antigen called ethylamine,　9　primes the response of gamma-delta T cells against a　10　of bacterial, viral, fungal and parasitic　11　, and possibly tumors. (Ethylamine is also found in other plant-based foods, such as apples, mushrooms and wine.)

In the study, blood samples from new tea drinkers were　12　to E. coli, bacteria　13　food poisoning and ulcers. The　14　cells in the tea drinkers produced five times the interferon―an important element of the body’s　15　system--than they had before tea was　16　. No change was noted in a　17　group of coffee drinkers.

“I don’tthink there’s a　18　to [drinking tea],” says co-author Jack F. Bukowski, M.D, of Harvard Medical School. While tea won’t　19　you or make you immune from illness, “people who do get sick will probably get a milder　20　,” Bukowski says.

Alcohol use is the number one drug problem among young people. It’s easy to understand why. For adults, alcohol is legal, widely　1　in American culture and easily.　2　. Many kids can get a drink right in their own homes.　3　are drinking younger and more frequently than　4　, often beginning around age 13, according to studies. The average number of alcoholic drinks among college students is five on a single　5　, according to a recent survey. Among those younger 21, it is 5.5 drinks, and among　6　21 and older, it is 4.2 drinks.

Young people almost always begin drinking because of　7　.pressure, in an attempt to be accepted and　8　in the group. According to the U.S. Surgeon General, more than half of junior and senior high school students drink alcoholic　9　. More than 40 percent of those who drink admit to drinking when upset, 31 percent admit to drinking　10　, 25 percent admit to drinking when　11　and 25 percent admit to drinking to get"　12　."

This is a　13　, serious problem　14　college campuses today. In 1997 Harvard University’s School of Public Health surveyed students at 130 colleges for a college　15　study and found about two of every five college students　16　in binge drinking.　17　binge drinkers at college were 22 times more　18　than non-binge drinkers to have problems,　19　missed classes, falling behind in school work, getting in trouble or hurt and engaging in　20　sexual activity.

One hundred and thirteen million Americans have at least one bank-issued credit card.

More and more of those credit cards can be　3　automatically, making　4　possible to withdraw or　5　money in scattered locations, whether or not the local branch bank is open, For many of us the "cashless society" is not　6　---- it’ s already here.

7　computers offer these conveniences to consumers, they have many　8　for sellers too. Electronic cash registers can do much more than simply　9　sales. They can keep a wide　10　of records, including who sold what, when and to whom. This information allows businessmen to　11　track of their list of goods　12　showing which items are being sold and how fast they are moving.　13　to reorder or return goods to suppliers can then be made. At the same time these computers record which　14　are the busiest and which employees are the most efficient, allowing personnel and staffing assignments to be made　15　. And they also　16　preferred customers for promotional campaigns. Computers are relied on by manufacturers for　17　reasons. Computer-analyzed marketing reports can help to decide which products to emphasize now, which to develop for the future and which to drop. Computers keep track of goods in　18　, of raw materials　19　hand, and even of the production process itself.

Numerous other commercial enterprises, from theaters to magazine publishers, from gas and electric　20　to milk processors, bring better and more efficient services to consumers through the use of computers.

About 40 percent of Americans think of themselves as shy, while only 20 percent say they have never suffered from shyness at some point in their lives. Shyness occurs when a person’s apprehensions are so great that they　1　his making an expected or desired social response.　2　of shyness can be as minor as　3　to make eye contact when speaking to someone,　4　as major as avoiding conversations whenever possible.

“Shy people tend to be too　5　with themselves,” said Jonathan Cheek, a psychologist, who is one of those at the forefront of current research on the topic. “　6　, for a smooth conversation, you need to pay attention to the other person’s cues　7　he is saying and doing. But the shy person is full of　8　about how he seems to the other person, and so he often　9　cues he should pick up. The result is an awkward lag in the conversation. Shy people need to stop focusing on　10　and switch their attention to the other person.”

11　, shy people by and large have　12　social abilities than they think they do.　13　Dr. Cheek videotaped shy people talking to　14　, and then had raters (评估者) evaluate how socially skilled the people were, he found that, in the　15　of other people, the shy group had few　16　problems. But when he asked the shy people themselves　17　they had done, they were unanimous in saying that they had been social flops (失败).

“Shy people are their own　18　critics,” Dr. Cheek said.　19　he added, shy people feel they are being judged more　20　than they actually are, and overestimate how obvious their social anxiety is to others.

What is your earliest childhood memory? Can you remember learning to walk? Or talk? The first time you heard thunder or watched a television program? Adults seldom　1　events much earlier than the year or so before entering school,　2　children younger than three or four　3　retain any specific, personal experiences.

A variety of explanations have been　4　by psychologists for this "childhood a mnesia" (儿童失忆症). One argues that the hippocampus, the region of the brain which is　5　for forming memories, does not mature until about the age of two. But the most popular theory　6　that, since adults don’t think like children, they cannot　7　childhood memories. Adults think in words, and their life memories are like stories or　8　―one event follows　9　as in a novel or film. But when they search through their mental　10　for early childhood memories to add to this verbal life story, they don’t find any that fit the　11　. It’s like trying to find a Chinese word in an English dictionary.

Now psychologist Annette Simms of the New York State University offers a new　12　for childhood amnesia. She argues that there simply　13　any early childhood memories to recall. According to Dr Simms, children need to learn to use someone else’s spoken description of their personal　14　in order to turn their own short term, quickly forgotten　15　of them into long term memories.

Without this　19　reinforcement, says Dr Simms, children cannot form　20　memories of their personal experiences.

1. 【答案】B

【解析】做完形填空时不能急于下手，一般要先通读全文，把握文章大意，上下文信息能帮助我们做出正确选择。通读全文后我们知道这篇文章讲的是农产品的新变化。第一段第二句话和第二段第一句话都提到了organic一词，由此可见本文开头部分讲的是organic produce，因此正确答案是B。

2. 【答案】A

【解析】本题的四个选项是两组反义词。Positive的意思是“正面的，积极的”，negative的意思是“负面的”，active是“活跃的，主动的”，而passive是“被动的，消极的”。根据语篇信息，文章开头提到有机农产品，后面还提到转基因产品，而这些都是农产品发展中的巨大突破，所以应当是positive development，答案为A。

3. 【答案】D

【解析】本题中容易排除的是B、C选项，contribution为“捐献，贡献”’conversion为“变化，转换”，它们都与上下文不协调。正确选项只能是controversy和confusion其中之一。这两个词意思相近，但controversy意思是“论争，辩论”，指的是对同一事物不同的看法或意见上的分歧，而confusion意思是“混乱，混淆”，指的是对事物正确理解方面的困惑。而原句中exactly(准确地，精确地)和means说明此处应当是准确理解意思方面的困惑。 正确答案为D。

4. 【答案】A

【解析】label意为“标签，商标”，mark是“标志，标记，痕迹”。我们在第二段倒数第二句话中也可发现label――词。因此应选A。

5. 【答案】C

【解析】gene是“基因”，composition是“合成物，作文”，都易排除。Component(成分)一个物体的各个组成部分，相当于part，例如：the components of a camera; ingredients(成分)指混合物的组成成分，例如：the ingredients of a medicine。根据上下文，这里意思是产品部分成分为有机物，所以应选C。

6. 【答案】A

【解析】determine意思是“决定”，illustrate意思是“举例说明”，recommend意思是“推荐”，demonstrate意思是“示范，证明”。待选动词的主语是standard(标准)，determine与其搭配最合适，所以正确答案为A。

7. 【答案】D

【解析】句子前半部分意思是陪审团退庭审议，这里指人们现在对有机产品和转基因产品的利弊仍无法做出判断。此处被选介词应当是关于的意思，只有on有此意，正确答案为D

8. 【答案】B

【解析】modify意思是“转变，改良”，model意思是“模仿”，motivate意思是“激发”。转基因产品的正确说法是genetically modified organism，因此答案是B。

9. 【答案】B

【解析】C和D易排除，不能和effect搭配。Long-run意思是“长远的，最终的”，long-term意思是“长期的”。待选项应该与and前面的short是对应的，因此正确答案为B.

10. 【答案】C

【解析】前半句的意思是没有人明确知道转基因产品的短期和长期效应，后半句的意思是它们可能导致某种情况，前后意思有转折，因此答案为C。

11. 【答案】C

【解析】unconditional意思是“无条件的，绝对的”，unexceptional意思是“非例外的，不独特的”，unintentional意思是“非故意的，无意识的”，uncontroversial意思是“非争论性的，未引起争论的”。Unintentional最符合句意，对杂草的creation不是故意的，所以应选C。

12. 【答案】A

【解析】intervene(插入，干涉)和介词between或in搭配，intrude(闯入，侵扰)和介词into或on搭配，可排除。interfere和interact都能和with搭配，interfere的意思是“干扰，干涉”，interact的意思是“相互作用”。本句意思是基因工程可能会对农作物自然生长有扰乱。正确选项应为A。

13. 【答案】B

【解析】从句子结构分析来看， you’re shopping是从句。据此只能选anytime，四个选项中只有anytime可引导从句，它的用法相当于“no matter when”或“whenever”。正确答案为B。

14. 【答案】A

【解析】brand name是“商标”，codename是“代号”，product name不是固定搭配，意思是产品的名字，family name是“姓”。显然brand更符合句子的意思，因此答案为A。

15. 【答案】B

【
