Explorers returning from Mexico introduced the tomato into Europe, where it was first mentioned in 1556. The French called it “the apple of love”，the Germans “the apple of paradise（乐园）”.Tomatoes are rich in vitamins A and C and fiber， and are cholesterol（胆固醇）free.An average size tomato (148 grams or so) has only 35 calories. Furthermore,new medical research suggests that the consumption of lycopene（番茄红素），the stuff that makes tomatoes red，may prevent cancer.Besides,the fruit now appears to have two more health giving benefits. Protection against sunburn and helping keep the skin looking youthful are the latest pluses,a study has found.Professor Mark Birch-Machin said tomatoes could provide a cheap and easy way of improving health.Researchers at Manchester and Newcastle universities recommend two tomato-based meals a day for health. Possible menus include a glass of tomato juice with breakfast and a salad later or tomato soup for lunch and pasta（意大利面）with a tomato sauce for dinner.To test the fruit's ability to protect the skin, ten volunteers were asked to eat five tablespoons of tomato paste mixed with olive oil every day for three months. Another ten had a daily dose of olive oil-minus the tomato paste. The tests showed the tomato-eaters were a third better protected against sunburn at the end of the study than at the start,the British Society for Investigative Dermatology's annual conference heard.The researchers stressed,however, that their findings were not an excuse to throw away the sun cream. Professor Lesley Rhodes, a Manchester University dermatologist,said: “People should not think tomatoes in any way can replace sun creams but they may be a good additive.”24.Why does the writer talk about the history of tomatoes in Paragraph 1?

CThere is more of a connection between food and culture than you may think. On an individual level, we grow up eating the food of our culture. It becomes a part of who we are. Many associate food from our childhood with warm feelings and good memories and it ties us to our families, holding a special and personal value for us. Food from our family often becomes the comfort food we seek as adults in times of frustration and stress.On a large scale, traditional food is an important part of culture. It also operates as an expression of culture identity． Immigrants（移民）bring it wherever they go，and it is a symbo1 of pride in their culture and means of coping with homesickness.Many immigrants open their own restaurants and serve traditional cuisine. However, the food does not remain exactly the same. Some ingredients needed to make traditional cuisine may not be readily available, so the taste and flavor can be different from what they would prepare in their home countries. Additionally, immigrants do not only sell cuisine to people from the same countries as them, but to people from different countries. Therefore, they have to make small changes to the original cuisine to cater to a wider range of customers. Those changes can create new flavors that still keep the cultural significance of the cuisine.We should not only embrace our heritage through our culture's food but also become more informed about other cultures by trying their food. It is important to remember that each dish has a special place in the culture to which it belongs, and is special to those who prepare it. Food is a window into culture, and it should be treated as such.28. What's the function of the traditional food?A. It helps motivate homesickness.B. It shows culture identity.C.It reflects a country's history.D. It shows a community's superiority.29. Why do some immigrants have to change the original dishes in their restaurant?A.To attach cultural importance to thei dishes.B. To announce the beginning of their life on foreign soil.C. To make the dishes popular among customers.D. To present their own food culture in a new way.30. What's the author's attitude towards different food cultures?A. Negative.B. Balanced.C.Unfair.D. Unchangeable.31.Which column does the passage come from?A.SpaceB.ScienceC.FoodD. EntertainmentDFinding the perfect spouse（配偶）can be impossible for some people. But if you live in Japan, the government there is willing to help you find your potential life-long partners through the use of artificial intelligence.With fewer babies being born each year than the previous year, the government has been trying to help single men and women find true love so they get married and start new families. The number of annual marriages in Japan has fallen sharply. Roughly 25 of Japan's 47 prefectures（县）currently have some sort of government run matchmaking service for singles where the users input their preferences for a partner including age, income and educational level. The dating services then provide a list of other users who meet their criteria（标准）.However, the current dating services aren't advanced enough to fully aid in directing singles towards lasting romantic connections. That's where artificial intelligence could come to the rescue.The new AI powered dating system will work by having users answer more specific questions to indicate their personal values on a variety of topics. The users will also have to share more information about their own hobbies and interests, like Pokemon in case they want to. have a Pikachu-themed wedding. This new AI service will help increase the probability of marriage for couples compared with a system based only on income, age, and education. The government will pay two-thirds of the introduction and operation costs of the new AI system.The news quickly stirred up a heated discussion on China's Sina Weibo. “It is surprising that a plot in a romance novel I read has come true in real life, but I still believe in my own personal feelings rather than some emotionless machine,” one Chinese netizen named Xiaosha posted on Sina Weibo.32. What makes the Japanese government try to match spouses for singles?
A.The aging problem.C. Young people's demands.B.The declining birth rate.D.The gender imbalance.
33.What can we learn about the AI dating system?A.It focuses on users' conditions such as age and income.B.It is a service based more on users' personality.C. It takes users' education levels into consideration.D.It works by providing a list of users who meet criteria.34. Which word best describes Xiaosha's attitude to AI dating systems?A.Favorable.B.Objective.C. Tolerant.D.Distrustful.35.What's the best title for the text?
A. A New AI Dating SystemC. Japan Considers AI to Match SpousesB. Criteria for Partner SelectionD. Advantages of AI Dating Systems
