1 . In your family you may find it difficult to form new eating and exercising habits for yourself without changing their habits at the same time.
Your family may prefer high-sugar and high-fat foods. But they don’t realise the fact that those foods have negative influence on the heart and blood pressure. So you should first let the whole family know the importance of changing bad eating habits. It is evident that low-sugar and low-fat foods contribute to good health.
In order to get the entire family’s support for changing eating habits, you should try to put your new lifestyle into your family’s routines. Perhaps your parents or other family members don’t want to abandon their favourite dishes. But you can advise your family to adjust their favourite recipes by gradually reducing fat and sugar. It may be an effective start to change their eating habits.
Your family may prefer watching TV in spare time. To deal with it, you should persuade everyone to move away from the television little by little. For example, you can begin by taking a walk with them, then move on to more activities like jogging or swimming.

3 . When someone asks me what my goals are for the coming year, I don’t usually know how to reply. Of course I, as most people do, want to see an improvement in my grades. This year, however, I’m hoping for something different.
Through the course of my school life, I’ve developed a new understanding of the word “prioritization(优先次序)” little by little. The first thing I wish to get in Senior 1 is the ability to manage my time better. I’ll surely become busier with the coming term, and proper organization is important. From school clubs to academic competitions, everything should be set up in a way that doesn’t influence my health, which leads me to my second goal.
My mother has always told me to put my health first, so in the future, I hope to be both physically and mentally(精神上) healthy. A person can’t study without having the energy to do so. In order to stay energetic, they must put their health first, no matter how busy they are, or how much work they have to complete.
And finally, I hope that I won’t be discouraged by my failures and never give up on my dreams. I hope that I’ll have the courage to try new activities and clubs. I believe my final goal is similar to every student’s goal around the world. We should all respect one another’s likes and dislikes, and focus on each other’s strengths, not our weaknesses. Everyone should strive(努力) to take part in all of life’s chances.
Albert Einstein once said, “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.” In my case, it’s the other way around. In order to keep moving, I must keep my balance—the balance between studies and activities, academics and health, likes and dislikes. The new journey is going to be a hard one, but if I set these goals, I believe I will make it through to the end.

4 . Food Ink, the World’s first 3D printing restaurant, opened to a group of guests who dined on a nine-course meal prepared right before their eyes using 3D printers. With London just the beginning, Food Ink plans to bring its creative restaurant idea to a number of other cities around the globe.
Like other 3D applications, printing food is a process that builds layers upon layers of material on top of each other. Unlike other 3D printing, which creates objects out of plastic, food materials in 3D printing are loaded into a syringe-like container which are then pressed into the shape required. Any food that can be pureed (研磨成糊) can be used in 3D food printing.
Fine dining is only one aspect of the food industry about to be completely changed by 3D printing. Researchers have been exploring ways to fight world hunger with 3D printing. Using powdered nutritional materials, it could produce large amounts of food to help feed a growing population. This is especially important with the world population predicted to be 8.5 billion by 2030. The 3D-printed food would also have the advantage of being produced cheaply and having a long shelf life.
The technology will enable consumers to quickly make meals to suit their specific health needs. Take the example of feeding elderly people, who often need to have their food pureed because they have trouble with swallowing and chewing (咀嚼). Many of them did not like food like this and so it discouraged them from eating, which can result in poor nutrition and medical issues. The Netherlands Organization is turning to 3D printing to produce 3D-printed vegetables to hold their shape.
It seems that there is no end to the potential of 3D printing. From creating special restaurant meals, to improving nutrition, to potentially feeding the world, 3D food printing is creating exciting new possibilities for food.
1. Why is Food Ink mentioned in paragraph 1?A.To stress the restaurant’s creativity. | B.To present the restaurant’s future plan. |
C.To recommend a 3D printing restaurant. | D.To introduce the topic of 3D food printing. |
A.Easy access. | B.Mass production. | C.Low cost. | D.Extra safety. |
A.It shapes their eating patterns. | B.It assists their medical treatments. |
C.It solves their chewing issues. | D.It satisfies their nutritional demands. |
A.Confident. | B.Worried. | C.Unclear. | D.Doubtful. |
5 . VR is like something simply wear a headset and open your eyes in a completely different world, without having to leave the one you’re in. It’s great for gamers and fun for thrill-seekers, but honestly I think VR’s real potential lies in travel.
From holiday inspiration to making a booking, the future of travel ties firmly online. But I’ve spotted a trend: We don’t simply base our bookings on great deals any more. While at Expedia—an online traveling company, I’ve noticed that more and more holidaymakers want to guarantee they’ll be getting an authentic (真实的) experience: local produce, authentic dig sand adventures they’ll never forget.
Picture the scene: I can wear a headset and stand on top of Iceland’s Gulfoss waterfall, or, perhaps, Peru’s Machu Picchu. I could even find myself wandering the busy streets of an Asian city, where the tourist industry may or may not have taken away some of the local charm. VR has the potential to attract potential travelers with style and substance, offering true-to-life expectations and matching wearers to their ideal experience.
If you’ re sick of spending hours searching the Internet for your dream hotel, then don’t worry. Booking bot, an app, does all the hard work. I begin a message to Expedia with a friendly ”Hi“, input where I’d like to go, when and for how long, and in seconds, I’ll be shown the best deals. There’s little annoyance and I could be making a cup of tea in the time it takes to chat.
With the unavoidable airport check-in experience complicated, making it easy will be key in the future. Some experts are even going so far as to predict the fall of human interaction-front desk staff replaced by holograms (全息图), waiting staff exchanged for robots and smartphone apps.
I haven’t only seen VR making waves: AR is coming to the front as a holiday must-have, too. Travel is changing, and the future may not be as far away as we’d first thought.

I am 16-year-old teenager. Recently, I have any problems at home, and the main one is that I can’t get along well with my father. Whatever I want to do something or suggest an idea, such as a restaurant who we can go for dinner, he never listens to me. However, when I refuse to listen to him, he shouts at me angry. And he always makes me do things I don’t like, such as playing the piano and do the housework. He gets annoying if I play foreign music. Every time I watch a DVD, he sends me to bed or tells to me to spend more time studying. He even stops myself from chatting with my friends in the Internet cafe!
I love him a lot, but I don’t understand why he is so hard on me. He is once a teenager—he should understand me better than he does.
7 . The Dangers of Secondhand Smoke
Most people know that cigarette smoking is harmful to their health. Scientific research shows that it causes many kinds of diseases.
Environmental Protection Agency reports that about 53,000 people die in the United States each year as a result of exposure to secondhand smoke.
The smoke that comes from a lit cigarette contains many different poisonous chemicals. In the past, scientists did not think that these chemicals could harm a nonsmoker’s health.
Research shows that children who are exposed to secondhand smoke are sick more often than children who live in homes where no one smokes and that the children of smokers are more than twice as likely to develop lung cancer when they are adults as the children of nonsmokers. The risk is even higher for children who live in homes where both parents smoke.
A.Recently, though, scientists changed their opinion after they studied a large group of nonsmokers. |
B.As a matter of fact, almost all of us breathe tobacco smoke at times, whether we realize it or not. |
C.In fact, many people who smoke get lung cancer. |
D.However, secondhand smoke is dangerous to all people, old or young. |
E.People are becoming very aware of the dangers of secondhand smoke. |
F.No one knows for sure why Mr. Gilson has lung cancer. |
G.Many people, including doctors, parents, teachers, and others, are concerned about the health risks of cigarette smoking. |
