My grandmother was from a town in Michigan. Summer after summer, I enjoyed staying with my grandparents as a young child. 1 was from the city and loved the small town they lived in. People knew everyone, their kids, their pets, and their ancestors. The bond with them continued to grow as I grew and they got older. Grandma was always using her hands for something exciting. She would make ltte sandwiches and we'd have tea parties. She'd make beautiful quilts for each one. 1 remember the small thimble (顶针) she would use while doing her needle work.

A few years ago, when Grandma left this earth, I bid farewell to a loving grandmother. How quickly our lives can change. We had just had tea together a couple of months earlier, on her 91st birthday.

I missed her very much. On one particular birthday , when I was feeling a lite low, something happened to make me feel like she was sharing that special day with me. I was arranging some colorful pillows that she had made, and suddenly I felt something inside one pillow. It was small and hard. I moved the object to a seam (接缝) that I carefully opened, and to my delight out came a tiny silver thimble! How happy I was to find something that had been a part of her. Not realizing it had fallen off her finger, I pictured her sewing it in that little pillow that I just happened to place on my bedspread (床罩) that day. I carefully laid the thimble alongside the others I've collected over the years, where I could continue to see the gift God chose to reveal to me. What a precious memory of a very special lady who somehow, I knew, was laughing in delight at sewing her thimble inside my pillow.

I made some tea, using my best china, as Grandma always did, and enjoyed my tea and Grandma's thimble.What a wonderful birthday that was!

The World Health Organization says the widespread use of sugar in food products and drinks is a major concern in many areas. So WHO officials are calling on governments to require taxes on sugary drinks in an effort to limit their usage and popularity. The officials believe the taxes also would reduce the risk of health problems resulting from obesity.

Obesity is a condition in which the body stores large， unhealthy amounts of fat. Obese individuals are considered overweight. A new report says that in 2014 more than one-third of the adults in the world were overweight, and 500 million were considered obese. The United Nations agency estimates that in 2015, 42 million children under age 5 were either overweight or obese. It says that number represents an increase of about 11 million during the past 15 years. Almost half of these boys and girls live in Asia and one-fourth in Africa.

The U. N. agency blames unhealthy diets for a rise in diabetes cases. There are 422 million cases of the disease worldwide. WH0 says 1. 5 million people die from it every year. It says the use of sugar in food products,like sugary drinks, is a major reason for the increase in rates of obesity and diabetes.

Temo waqanivalu is with the agency's Department for the Prevention on Non-Communicable Diseases: He told VOA that taxing sugary drinks would reduce consumption and save lives. Waqanivalu noted that Mexico enacted a law of a 10 percent tax on sugary drinks in 2014. He said by the end of the year, there was a 6 percent drop in the consumption of such drinks. Among poor people，the number of people who consumed sugary drinks dropped by 17

percent.

The WHO says people should limit the amount of sugar they consume. It says they should keep their sugar intake to below 10 percent of their total energy needs, and reduce it to less than 5 percent for improved health.

29. Why are taxes on sugary drinks required?

A. To warn people to change their life style.       B. To readjust the economic structure.

C. To limit their use and popularity.        D. To ensure the market's diverse development.

30. What do the figures in the second paragraph suggest?

A. Obesity is a severe worldwide problem.

B. Adult obesity is ignored at present.

C. Obesity can block economic development.

D. Obesity is most serious in developed countries.

31. What does the underlined word“enacted”mean in the passage?

A. Abolished.      B. Passed.        C. Promised.        D. Reduced.

32. What does the example of Mexico prove?

A. Tax policies are unfair to the poor.

B. Taxing sugary drinks makes a difference.

C. The poor consume more sugary drinks. .

D. Sugary drinks are a threat to health.

D

Silence is unnatural to man. He begins life with a cry and ends it in stillness. In between he does all he can to make a noise in the world, and he fears silence more than anything else. His conversation is an attempt to prevent a fearful silence. If he is introduced to another person, and a number of pauses occur in the conversation,he regards himself as a failure, a worthless person, and is full of envy of the emptiest-headed chatterbox ( 喋喋不休的人). He knows that ninety nine percent of human conversation means no more than? the buzzing of a fly, but he is anxious to join in the buzz and to prove that he is a man and not a waxwork figure ( 蜡塑人像).

The aim of conversation is not, for the most part, to communicate ideas; it is to keep up the buzzing sound. There are, it must be admitted， different qualities of buzz; there is even a buzz that is as annoying as the continuous noise made by a mosquito. But at a dinner party one would rather be a mosquito than a quiet person.Most buzzing, fortunately, is pleasant to the ear, and some of it is pleasant even to the mind. He would be a foolish man if he waited until he had a wise thought to take part in the buzzing with his neighbors.

Those who hate to pick up the weather as a conversational opening seem to me not to know the reason why human beings wish to talk. Very few human beings join in a conversation in the hope of learning anything new.Some of them are content if they are merely allowed to go on making a noise into other people's ears，though they have nothing to tell them except that they have seen two or three new plays or that they had food in a Swiss hotel.At the end of an evening， during which they have said nothing meaningful for a long time， they just prove themselves to be successful conservationists.

33. According to the author, people make conversation to        .

A. overcome their fear of silence      B. prove their value

C. achieve success in life            D. exchange ideas

34. According to the passage, people usually talk to their neighbors       .

A. about two or three plays they have seen     B. about whatever they want to

C. in the hope of learning something new      D. in the hope of getting on well

35. What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?

A. To discuss why people like talking about weather.

B. To encourage people to join in conversations.

C. To persuade people to stop making noises. .

D. To explain why people keep talking.
