5、Everyone knows how a fishing calendar(日歷) works: it tells you when you have the best chance of catching the most fish. This year, though, Kelson Poepoe, a conservationist on Hawaii’s Molokai Island, helped publish an unusual version on this model. Poepoe and his colleagues decided to print a calendar telling people when not to fish.
Many of the Homestead’s residents still follow an existence lifestyle, gathering roughly one-third of their food by fishing in nearby Mo’omomi Bay. But, even though overfishing has exhausted fish populations throughout Hawaii, Mo’omomi Bay’s fishery is booming, with a higher fish density(密度) than nearly anywhere else in the main islands.
The new calendar is based on the ancient fishing practices that have helped keep those populations strong. Hawaiians have long known that carefully tended resources will renew themselves. To make this process easier, fishermen traditionally worked hard to understand and adapt to fish behavior. For example, they closely monitored where and when key species gathered to reproduce, and they prevented fishing during those times. By contrast, most of today’s fishermen see spawning(產(chǎn)卵) periods as a chance to get large numbers of fish, which can cause population break down.
While these traditional methods have largely died out, they are still practiced by Poepoe and his fellow men at Mo’omomi Bay. “We have a rule of conduct that basically says, take only what you can eat fresh, don’t stock your fridge, and don’t take the fish when they spawn,” Poepoe said.
In 1993, Poepoe helped found the conservation group Hui Malama Mo’omomi to teach those practices to new generations, and publishing the calendar is a key part of this move. It follows the lunar cycle, declaring when certain species are not available or “taboo.” It also includes helpful hints about fish lifecycles, detailing exactly where in the bay certain kinds of fish like to gather, how to tell males from females, and which fishing methods are least likely to harm fish populations long-term.
So far, these methods have helped keep Mo’omomi Bay’s fish number totals far higher than elsewhere in the surrounding islands.
With hopes of copying this success, a number of local groups are interested in creating similar calendars for other coastal areas. But that’s a difficult project, partly because fish habits are highly local, meaning that the information in the calendar applies mainly to Mo’omomi Bay. Still, these groups believe the basic methods are transferable.
51. What does the passage mainly tell us?
A. New lunar calendar tells Hawaiians when not to fish.
B. Traditional methods prevent fishermen from fishing.

4、We have proof that you become what you eat. When you know the effects of different types of food, you can use your knowledge well and eat what you want to become.
Food has an impact on our physical and mental health. Have you ever heard any of the following advice?
Lettuce or milk can make you sleepy.
To stop feeling sleepy you should eat peanuts or dried fish.
Everyone has their own advice to give, which they have read about or have been told by older relatives. Some of these pieces of advice seem to contradict each other.
Eating chocolate makes you fat and gives you spots.
Chocolate contains the essential minerals: iron and magnesium.
What we need to figure out is what type of chocolate to eat to get the benefits and how much of it to eat. We can do this by reading the list of ingredients on the chocolate bar package. Exactly how much real chocolate is in there? And how much of that do we need to eat to get the benefits of the minerals it contains?
Future restaurants might be named after the physical or mental state they hope to create. Their menus will list the benefits of each dish and drink. Some restaurants have already started this concept, and list the nutritional content of their dishes on the menus.
Let’s take the restaurant “Winners” as an example. Their menu would list dishes specifically designed to help you win sports competitions. Or you could choose the Go-faster salad, which is a large bowl of mixed raw vegetables in a light salad dressing, giving you energy without making you gain weight. And what kind of dishes do you think would be on the menu at the “Clever Café”?
So what’s going to happen to hamburgers and biscuits? Will the concept of eating food, because it’s tasty, go out of fashion? Of course not! Junk food is also changing. If ice-cream is not good for children, can’t we give them fat-free, sugar-free tofu ice-cream? Unhealthy food is going out of fashion, so brands are changing. We are told not to drink cola because of the sugar and caffeine content so cola companies are making sugar-free and caffeine-free drinks. We are told dried fruit is a healthier snack than biscuits so some biscuit companies are making biscuits with added vitamins.
46. By saying “you become what you eat”, the writer means that ________.
A. you will become your own food
B. you will know what food is good by its appearance
C. food has an effect on your health
D. you will know the effects of different types of food
47. What does the underlined word “contradict” mean in the text?
A. Have influence on. B. Help with.
C. Oppose to. D. Benefit from.
48. How can we eat chocolate properly, according to the passage?
A. To eat chocolate containing the essential minerals.
B. To read the list of ingredients on the package.
C. To get advice from others before eating real chocolate.
D. To learn how much chocolate we can consume before eating.
49. Which is true about the future restaurants?
A. The food in “Winners” can ensure you to win sports competitions.
B. They might list the nutritional content of their dishes on the menus.
C. Hamburgers will disappear in these restaurants.
D. The Go-faster salad helps you go faster.
50. The concept of eating tasty food will not go out of fashion because ________.
A. the junk food companies are changing their brand names
B. biscuit companies are making dried fruit
C. junk food will become healthier than before
D. Cola companies are still making cola

3、I was interested to read a newspaper article about a new concept in old people’s homes in France. The idea is simple, but revolutionary―combining a residential home for the elderly with a nursery school in the same building. The children and the residents eat lunch together and share activities. In the afternoons, the residents enjoy reading or telling stories to the children, and if a child is feeling sad or tired, there is always a kind lap to sit on and a cuddle. There are trips out and birthday parties too.
The advantages are enormous for everyone concerned. The children are happy because they get a lot more individual attention, and respond well because someone has time for them. They see illness and death and learn to accept them. The residents are happy because they feel useful and needed. They are more active and more interested in life when the children are around and they take more interest in their appearance too.
Nowadays there is less and less contact between the old and the young. There are many reasons for this, including the breakdown of the extended family, working parents with no time to care for ageing relations, families that have moved away, and smaller flats with no room for grandparents. But the result is the same―increasing numbers of children without grandparents and old people who have no contact with children. And more old people who are lonely and feel useless, along with more and more families with young children who desperately need more support. It’s a major problem in many societies.
That’s why intergenerational programmes, designed to bring the old and the young together, are growing in popularity all over the world. There are examples of successful attempts all over the world. Using young people to teach IT skills to older people is one obvious example. Using old people as volunteer assistants in schools is another, perhaps reading with children who need extra attention.
41. A nursery school is a place where _______.
A. future nurses are trained
B. the elderly live

A. A number of assistants are employed to take care of the children.
B. The new concept benefits both the elderly and the children.

A. The reason why the old and the young are separated.
B. One reason why children don’t live with their grandparents.
C. The support children need.
D. The problem that the old and the young are separated.
44. What does the “intergenerational programmes” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Combining elderly homes with nursery schools.
B. Letting the children and the residents eat together.
C. Asking young people to teach IT skills to older people.
D. Using old people as volunteer assistants in schools.
45. What is the best title for the passage?
