In China, wild spring greens are traditionally thought of as a healthy food. They are still common in many dishes today. Chinese Toon shoots香椿芽Toon shoots are usually the best just before gu-yu, the sixth of the 24 solar terms(节气). Guyu means that spring is almost to end. This is when the leaves are very tender(嫩的). It is often cooked with eggs to balance the sometimes strong tastes of the leaves. It can also be prepared with tofu.Indian aster 马兰头    The meaning of Indian aster is to make a horse turn its head. It is said that its tender-taste could make a horse stop moving on. Perhaps because of the name, the green has become a goodbye gift, cooked when one wants to wish a friend a safe journey, according to the website The World of Chinese. The vegetable is usually boiled in water, cut and mixed with tofu and sesame oil.Shepherd’s purse 荠菜    Shepherd’s purse is a green herb(草本植物) with an unusual smell.

In traditional Chinese medicine, it is used to improve eyesight, deal with high blood pressure and stop bleeding. Luhao 芦蒿Taken as a symbol of spring, luhao was thought highly of by a famous Chinese poet. He said: “When the land is green and luhao is everywhere, spring has truly arrived.”Before or during guyu, luhao is very tender and is usually cooked with meat. It tastes light and can be simply cooked with ginger, spring onion and a little chilli.Tips for eating wild vegetables※Do not eat wild vegetables you don’t know.※ Do not eat polluted wild vegetables.※Do not eat wild vegetables which have been kept for a long time.

So in both East and West, people have festivals to celebrate family reunions(团聚).These festivals include the Mid-Autumn Festival in China and Thanksgiving Day in the US. How are they celebrated and what are the differences? Let's take a look. Sharing the moonlightThe Mid-Autumn Festival is the second most important traditional festival in China after the Spring Festival. It's on the 15th day of the eighth month of Chinese lunar calendar.In ancient China, the day was considered as a harvest festival since fruits, vegetables and grain(谷物) had been collected from the fields. All the family got together and had a big dinner. They ate a special festival food-moon cakes and enjoyed the full moon.On that day, the moon is full. The full moon is a symbol for family reunions which mean tuanyuan in Chinese. Now people also celebrate the festival by getting together and having a big dinner.When it gets dark, people look up at the full moon, eating moon cakes and missing friends and relatives who are far from home. “We wish each other a long life so as to share the beauty of this graceful moonlight, even though miles apart!” wrote Su Shi, a famous Song Dynasty poet. Showing thanksThanksgiving Day is one of the biggest holidays in the US. It's on the fourth Thursday of November. People visit their friends and relatives to remind themselves that they are lucky to have happiness, health and family and also to have a roof over their heads.In 1621, about 100 English people took a ship, the Mayflower, and arrived in the northeastern US. The winter there was very cold and life was hard. As the American Indians helped them a lot, the English people asked them to have a big meal with then in order to express their thanks. The celebration lasted for three days.Today, people usually have a family meal on Thanksgiving Day. They enjoy delicious food such as pumpkin scorn and a big, golden turkey.There are other traditions on the day. For example, the turkey has a V-shaped bone in the breast. It’s called a wishbone. After roasting(烤), two persons each take one end of the bone. They make a wish and then pull it. If one gets the larger part of the bone, he or she will get good luck.The most important part of Thanksgiving Day is to say “thanks”— this is the spirit of the holiday. People also like to watch the Thanksgiving Day Parade on TV.24.Why did people celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in ancient China?A. Because people could eat moon cakes. B. Because people enjoyed the full moon.C. Because people could get together with relatives. D.

Then he lived with his grandpa in a small house. Life was harder for them.Their life depended on Nello's grandpa. Every morning, the old man would collect fresh milk from one house to another. He then had to load(装载) the milk on a cart and sent it to the city. Growing up a little older, Nello would try to help his grandpa to travel from Flanders to the city.One day, as Nello and his grandpa were going home from the city they saw a large dog lying on the side of the road. The dog was motionless.“What happened? "asked Nello. “ls the dog dead?” His grandpa touched the nose of the dog with his hand and examined the body of the dog. He then said to Nello,“The dog is seriously ill. We have to take him to a vet(兽医), or he will die." With the words, his grandpa put the dog on the cart and the two went home. The fact was that the dog was abandoned(抛弃) by his master because of his serious illness. Seeing the dying dog, Nello was heart-broken. The kind hearted boy took good care of him. Even though Nello and his grandpa did not have enough to eat, he would still feed the dog with milk and bread. Day by day, the dog began to stand on his feet and became stronger and stronger.“We should give him a name,” said Nello one day to his grandpa.“That's a good idea," replied his grandpa. “What name do you want to give him? “How about Patrasche?"said Nello.“Patrasche is a beautiful name," said his grandpa.From then on, Patrasche became a member of the family.One day, as Nello and his grandpa loaded the cart with milk and were ready to start their journey to the city, Patrasche stood in front of the cart.“Out of the way, Patrasche,”said Nello.“We'll be late." But Patrasche refused to move. He was simply staring at Grandpa and wagging(摇摆) his tail.     “What does he want to do?” asked Nello.His grandpa smiled and said. “I believe our Patrasche wants to help pull the cart." Hearing Grandpa's words, Patrasche was wagging his tail even harder.Patrasche had been badly treated by his master all his life. Never had anyone treated him nicely as Nello and his grandpa. Patrasche was thankful for the kindness he received, so he wanted to help, Grandpa tied a stripe on Patrasche, and he started to pull the cart right away.From then on, people in town would see such a scene a large dog was pulling a cart loaded with milk with the grandpa pushing behind and Nello helping at the side.(Adapted from A Dog of Flanders)28.

Traditionally, zoos have focused on more straightforward measures such as whether animals are eating and sleeping.The new review, by the University of Exeter and the University of Winchester, says zoos have made great improvements in recent years, but closer observation of animal behaviour — a method called Qualitative Behavioural Assessment, developed in farming — could show even more about their state of mind.An animal’s positioning of its body, facial movements and activity levels are among the things that might tell whether it is excited, calm, interested, nervous, relaxed, etc.“Zookeepers are knowledgeable about their animals, and they will often recognise an animal’s state of mind by its behaviour and body language,” said Dr. Paul Rose, of the University of Exeter.“What we are suggesting is a more scientific method of this, carried out over time.”“Certain behaviours will show certain moods (情绪) in an animal, and we should build our knowledge of this for different animals that live in zoos. For example, lions have a lot of facial expressions, and research on these expressions could help zoos understand the animals’ state of mind. This information could then be used to improve welfare by changing diets, feeding times or any number of other aspects of the way animals are kept.”Dr. Rose carries out much of his research at WWT Slimbridge Wetland Centre, and is now examining how the swans (天鹅) there might show their state of mind through their behavioural expression.“We’re looking at how much time they spend exploring their habitat, which could show what they’re feeling,” he said. “When they’re unsure, they appear to move less and be more careful, and draw their feathers (羽毛) close to their bodies.”The study suggests research opportunities for Qualitative Behavioural Assessment and practices that could be used by zoos. “Animal welfare in zoos has improved greatly in the last 10 or 20 years, and this method gives zoos another way to recognise and improve the welfare of animals,” Dr. Rose said.32. What do the university researchers suggest?A. More studies on the welfare of zoo animals.B. Closer observation of zoo animals’ behaviours.C. More attention to farm animals’ body language.D. Greater improvements of farm animals’ welfare.33. Why does the author mention lions?A. To show body language differs in different animals.B. To show the uncertainty of animal body language.C. To show lions change their expressions easily.D. To show lions are treated badly in zoos.34. What has Dr. Rose found about the swans?A. They have more facial expressions than lions. B. They appear confident most of the time.C. They move little in fearful situations.D. They spend little time in their habitat.35. What does Dr. Rose express in the last paragraph?A. Animal welfare in zoos is worrying.B. Qualitative Behavioural Assessment is purposeful.C. Farm animals enjoy greater welfare than zoo animals.D. Zoos do a good job in recognising animal body language.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）Life is full of unexpected（始料不及的)moments.

In order to protect our environment, it is high time that we should go green.Firstly, we should raise people's awareness of the importance of going green. Secondly, using public transportation or riding bicycles instead of using cars can make a great difference to the problem. What's more, we should take full advantage of water, electricity, paper, food and so on. Last but not least, it is a good idea to classify our rubbish and recycle it in our daily life.Let's join efforts to create a green and harmonious environment. The Students' Union
