Nowadays, the food that you buy comes from many different countries: Have a look in your
fridge: cupboard and fruit bowl and check the origins（来源）of the food. Perhaps there are apples
from California, lamb from New Zealand, or potatoes from Egypt? You may be amazed how 75
food travels to get to your plate. This journey, from “field to plate", is called "food miles". A food
mile is the distance that food travels from the farmer's field to the person who buys the food.
Nowadays, food often travels thousands of miles to get to the consumer. Why is this, and what are
the effects of these long distances?
In the past, farmers sold their food in the local market and the consumers did not travel long
distances, because they went to their local market to buy the food. This was a good system for
farmers arid consumers. However, there were some 76 . For example, consumers could only buy
food that farmers produced locally. They could only get food that was in season. Now, because of
modern technology, food comes from all over the world. We do not have to wait for spring or
summer to buy strawberries or tomatoes. They are 77 in winter if we want.
Some countries have to import(进口) most of their food. This is because they have difficult
climates. The United Arab Emirates (UAE), for example, gets 85% of its food from other
countries. 78 food made in the UAE often uses imported materials.
What's wrong with "food miles"? Is this not a good way of increasing international trade? I believe
these "food miles" are 79 people for a number of reasons. First of all, because food travels such
long distances, we need more planes, lorries and ships to move the food. This means we use more
oil or petrol, so there is more pollution and more global warming. 80 , food that travels a long
way is not fresh and usually not very tasty. Tomatoes, for example, are picked early and stored for
their long journey. For this reason, they are usually tasteless when they get to the consumer. Local
food has a better taste, and it reduces the amount of global pollution as well. We need to buy more
local food.
75.A)early B)interesting C)far D)accurate
76. A) disadvantages B) results C) methods D) links
77. A) delicious B) dramatic C) colourful D) available
78.A)Yet B)Even C)Still D)Again
79. A) worrying B) affecting C) encouraging D) changing
80. A) For the time being B) On average
C) In addition D) In return
C) Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（在短文的空格内填入适当的词，
使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给):（14分）
My father will always live in my heart- though he passed away many years ago. My earliest
m 81 of dad is grabbing his hand while we walked together. As I grew older, I remembered my
father and me listening to basketball games on the radio. I always fell asleep before the game wasover. When I woke up in the morning, the score sheet（纸）with the f 82 score on it would be
lying next to me. I'll always remember that.
On cold mornings my father would bring his bread truck by the house. I used to ride on the
floor of that bread truck as he delivered the bread to the stores. The smell and the warmth from the
bread made my mouth water and kept me warm. I'll always remember that.
My father would be present at all my games. One night before an important game my father
looked at me s 83 and told me that he wouldn't be able to watch the game because he had to
deliver the bread and it was a three-hour drive. The next day as the game drew near I thought
about my dad. I happened to look across the field and surprisingly saw his bread truck pulling into
the stadium. He m 84 to make the game. I'll always remember that.
Years later I became a teacher. I'll never forget the v 85 on the phone early one morning
telling me dad had just been killed in a traffic accident. I could hear my heart beat in my ears. I
hung up the phone and went back to my bedroom. After that nothing really mattered to me. I still
taught in school but I couldn't focus attention on my teaching. One day I was on the playground
when a little boy walked up to me and grabbed my hand. His handheld m 86 the same way I
used to hold my father's by the last two fingers. At that moment I found my purpose in life again.
Though my father was gone, he left me s 87 I started. I'll always remember that!

Dario and his mother loved their new apartment. The living room was large enough for their
piano. One night, the two of them sat side by side at the piano. They played jazz music to
celebrate their new home. The loud music filled the room and made them feel very happy.
The next morning, however, their happiness disappeared. Someone had left a note under their
door during the night. One of their neighbors had written to complain about the sound of the
piano. Dario's mother asked the building superintendent(管理员) if he knew anything about it. But
he said that they were all nice people and he couldn't imagine any of them had done that. Later
that morning, Dario suggested that they write a letter to their neighbors and apologize for their
playing.
"Maybe we could go and visit everyone in person." his mother said.
"How about inviting them to come here for a party instead?" Dario asked.
They both loved the idea. Over the next few days, they sent out invitations and prepared
desserts for their guests. They decorated the apartment with streamers（彩带）and party lights.
In the end, the day of the party arrived. Some guests brought presents and flowers, and others
brought desserts to share. One woman, Mrs Gilbert, gave Dario's mother a book of piano music by
Chopin.
"I heard you playing the other night," she said. "The sounds woke me out of bed. I was afraid
that you might play like this every night. So I wrote a short note. I hope you don't think I disliked
the playing."
Dario's mother smiled at Mrs Gilbert. "I think maybe we should apologize to you." she said.
"I didn't realize how late it was when we were playing. Maybe we should play some quieter music
at night.
"I like what you play! Just try not to be so loud at night." Mrs Gilbert said. She pointed to the
book she had given them. "These songs are not such loud music."
"These songs are beautiful music." Dario's mother said. "We will be happy to play them inthe evening."
"And we won't play so loud or late!" Dario said. He was already looking forward to
practicing the new music. More than that, however, he was happy to see the big smile on his
mother's face. It gave him a feeling of warmth and made him feel that they were home at last.
