     Visitors to Britain are always complaining about English food. But they do not really know what they
are talking about because they rarely get a chance to eat it. Most of the restaurants in large towns have
foreign owners and serve foreign food. When visitors are invited to eat in an English home, their hosts
often feel they must offer them something foreign and exotic (奇特的) .
     Those of us who do know English food realize that at its best it can be really very good. On the other
hand it is true to say that it is sometimes terrible. Part of the problem is that we are not really interested in
food-we eat to live, we don't live to eat. So we don't generally spend necessary time and effort needed
to cook really good meals or ready prepared food which only needs heating up before eating.
     You can find the best English food in the country away from large towns, where life is slower and
people are not in such a hurry. But more visitors come to London because they are interested in shopping and sightseeing. They do not come because of food, so why should they complain about it?
1. Visitors to Britain are always complaining about English food because _____.
A. they don't often eat English food
B. they know little about English food
C. they only eat English food in English home
2. When English people have guests they prefer to ____  .
A. cook some unusual food
B. offer them some prepared food
C. serve them food they are used to
3. Which of the following statements is right?
A. People don't want to spend time and effort in cooking.
B. People like to cook in a quick easy way.
C. English food is neither good nor terrible.
4. Visitors can find the best English food _____ .
A. in the restaurants in large towns
B. in the country
C. in English homes
5. The conclusion suggests _____.
A. visitors have the rights to complain about English
B. as well as food people come to shopping and sightseeing
C. the criticism (批評) of English food is unfair

     The undersea world is very beautiful. Now more and more people want to dive in the water to find
the secret there. Scuba diving is a new sport today. It can take you into a wonderful undersea world.
You will find many strange animals in the sea. Some are as large as a school bus. Many sea animals give
out light in the dark and some have sharp teeth. During the day, there is enough light. Here, under the sea,
everything is blue and green.
     When fishes swim nearby, you can catch them with your hands. When you have bottles of air on your
back, you can stay in deep water for a long time. However, you can't dive too deep. And you must be
very careful when you dive in deep water.
     The deep sea is not an easy place to live in. It's cold. And it's dark, too. The deeper it is, the less
sunlight there is. At about 3,000 feet, there is no light at all. It is very dark in the sea. Many fishes have
no eyes. Some have big eyes. A few have eyes on one side.
     Besides(除了) the cold and the darkness, deep-sea animals face a third danger than other animals.
    Animals eat! They must find food to eat. Many animals eat plants. However, some animals eat meat.
This means these sea animals have two big jobs. They need to find animals as food, and they have to try
not to become other animals' meal.
1. Why do people want to dive in the sea? Because __________.
A. they want to catch fish
B. they want to find the secrets of the undersea world
C. the sea is deep
2. In the daytime, when you dive in the sea, you __________.
A. can see everything green and blue
B. can't be in danger
C. can catch nothing
3. How many dangers will animals meet in the deep sea?
A. One.
B. Two.
C. Three.
4. When you do scuba diving, you can __________.
A. stay in deep water for a long time
B. dive very, very deep
C. live in deep water easily
5. The WRONG sentence is __________.
A. one animal finds something to eat, and it may be eaten by others
B. at the depth of 3,000 feet under the sea, many animals can find their way by hearing and feeling
C. at the depth of 3,000 feet under the sea, all animals can find their way by seeing
