Our favorite was The Price is Right. We would call out our answers along with the contestants.‎ When I got older and started going to school, we couldn’t watch our game shows regularly. That was okay with me, though, because the one thing I liked better than watching game shows with my grandmother was helping her bake. Watching her in the kitchen was amazing: she never seemed to need the recipes but everything she made tasted delicious.‎ At first, I would just sit in the kitchen and watch, even though I didn’t understand what she was doing. As I got older, she let me help with the easy parts, such as measuring the sugar. The day she let me separate the eggs，I felt like I had found complete pleasure.‎ At last, my parents decided that I could take care of myself，and my grandmother stopped coming over every day. The love of baking, however, stayed with me. I started baking by myself, and even if the cookies ended up burnt sometimes, more often they turned out pretty well. I tried out new recipes, and whenever I got to a thorny part, I would call my grandmother for advice. Sometimes I would call her just to talk, too. I felt like I could talk to her about anything.‎ My grandmother passed away ten years ago, but I still think of her every day. Last week, I found a recipe book she made for me. It included her recipes for brownies, cookies, and my favorite, lemon pie. As I looked through the pages, I thought I could hear her voice. She was the one who taught me not just about baking, but about life.‎ ‎24. While helping her grandmother bake, the author .‎ A. missed the game shows B. refused to go to school C. showed great interest D. could take care of herself ‎25. What does the underlined word “thorny" in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?‎ A. Basic. B. Common. C. Difficult. D. Special.‎ ‎26. From the passage we know the author's grandmother .‎ A. lived with her family B. was very skilled at baking C. published a recipe book D. had been on a game show ‎27. What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage?‎ A. To show her good baking skills. B. To remember her grandmother.‎ C. To talk about her happy family life. D. To describe her childhood memories. ‎ C As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet ‎ is changing what we remember and how.‎ In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know how the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.‎ In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the computer. The information was in a specific computer folder. Surprisingly, people later remembered the folder location better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called “transactive memory (交互记忆).”‎ According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories: that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn’t mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.‎ ‎28. The passage begins with two questions to _________.‎ A. introduce the main topic B. show the author’s attitude C. describe how to use the Internet D. explain how to store information ‎29. What can we learn about the first experiment?‎ A. Sparrow’s team typed the information into a computer.‎ B. The two groups remembered the information equally well.‎ C. The first group did not try to understand the information.‎ D. The second group did not understand the information.‎ ‎30. In transactive memory, people _________.‎ A. keep the information in mind ‎ B. change the quantity of information C. organize information like a computer ‎ D.remember how to find the information ‎31. What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow’s research?‎ A. We are using memory differently. ‎ B. We are becoming more intelligent.‎ C. We have poorer memories than before. ‎ D. We need a better way to access information. ‎ D The United States government has decided that food from cloned cattle, pigs and goats is safe to eat. The Food and Drug Administration also says it found no risks in meat and milk from cloned animals.      The F.D.A. looked at studies for several years before it announced its decision in a final report this month. The United States Department of Agriculture supported the findings. But it says time is needed to smooth the way for marketing meat and milk from clones.      The F.D.A. will not require any product to be registered as coming from clones. A producer would need to label (标注) a product "clone-free". The agency says that could be misunderstood because the food is not different from other food.      But activists argue that the F.D.A. based its decision on incomplete research into possible risks. The Center for Food Safety criticized the use of studies supplied by cloning companies. Animal rights activists point out that cloning attempts often fail. They say cloning is cruel and can lead to suffering.      Congress (国会) has been trying to get the F.D.A. to do more studies. But the agency noted that experts in New Zealand and the European Union had come to the same findings about the safety of food from clones. Japan, South Korea and Taiwan say they want to study it further before taking action.      Products from cloning may not be widely used for several years. Clones are costly, which is why they are not widely used for feeding. The Agriculture Department says few clones will ever become food. Their traditionally raised animals would enter ‎ the food supply instead. ‎ ‎32. What does the underlined word "costly" in the last paragraph probably mean?‎ A. expensive B. dangerous C. useful D. cheap ‎33. All the following are sure of the safety of cloned products EXCEPT ______.‎ A. New Zealand B. America C. the European Union D. Japan ‎34. We can get from the passage that ______.      A. the American congress has no doubt about the cloned food project B. animal rights activists are against the cloning project for its cruelty ‎ C. it seems cloned food will replace the traditionally produced food one day D. cloned products have been widely used for several years ‎35. What is the best title for this passage?      A. A New Clone Policy B. Is Food from Cloned Animals Safe? ‎ C. A Big Danger —Cloned Food      D. Cloned Products —A New Choice ‎ 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分)‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ I've always wanted to start my own business. I've always wanted to start working for myself.
