Winners of the third Healthy Lunchtime Challenge came to

the White House on Friday, July 18, for a Kids' State Dinner hosted

by First Lady Michelle Obama. They all came from America for a

meal that featured a selection of kid-created recipes (食谱).

Mrs. Obama told the winners and their parents that they set

a strong example. The First Lady advised winners to “pay it

forward”like last year's winner fromDelaware, 10-year-old

Braeden Mannering. He helped the homeless get food and clean

water.

President Barack Obama made a surprise appearance at the

event. He spoke about the First Family's favorite food. “You guys

are leaders in your schools,” the president told the kids, “and

you're helping to teach people the importance of good nutrition

(营养), the importance of putting good food in your bodies so

that you're living healthy, active lives.”

The Healthy Lunchtime Challenge was open to young people

between the ages of 8 and 12 and their parents. The competition

received about 1,500 recipes. They were judged in the first round

on nutritional value, taste, creativity and affordability, and the

story behind the recipe. Chefs then prepared the recipes in a

second round of judging. The winners were chosen by a group of

judges that included great chefs and nutritionists, etc. Before

heading for the White House, the winners and their families

visited the National Museum of American History to see the Food

exhibit and received healthy breakfast bags from the Walmart

Foundation. After the dinner, the group headed for a tour of the

White House Kitchen Garden. They all had a wonderful time.

Like all big cities, Paris has a traffic problem: lots of cars, lots

of traffic jams (阻塞) and lots of pollution from exhaust fumes (废

气). ) to improve the situation.计划So the city began a scheme (

Under the Velib scheme (‘Velib' comes from vélo liberté, or

‘bicycle freedom') people can take a bicycle, use it for as

long as they want, and then leave it at the same or another

bicycle station. The first half-hour on the bike is free, but if you

don't return it after 30 minutes, you have to pay. But it's only €1

a day or €29 a year! The bicycles are heavy (25 kg), and they are

all grey and have baskets. There are about 20,000 of them in the

city, and around 1,450 bicycle stations. So there are a lot more

Velib stations than the 298 subway stations!

Paris is not the first city to have a scheme like this. But not

everybody thinks it's a great idea. One Parisian said, ‘These

bicycles are only for short journeys. If people want to travel

across the city, they won't use a bicycle — they'll still use their

cars.'

A city spokesman said, ‘The bicycle scheme won't solve all

our

traffic problems, of course. But it might help reduce air

pollution. Traffic, together with factory fumes, is a big problem.

There aren't any simple answers to traffic problems and pollution

in cities. But unless we do something now, there will be more

traffic jams and temperatures will continue to rise, so the

problems in our environment will get worse. The bikes might help

people to lead a healthier life, too.'

A. The cost is rather high.

B. It's hard to find a Velib station.

C. It's not suitable for a long journey.

D. The distance between two Velib stations is long.

28. What's the city spokesman's attitude towards the bicycle

scheme?

A. Doubtful.

B. Positive.

C. Uncaring.

D. Worried.

At any given time, there are thousands of pairs of shoes in

the Share Your Soles storehouse in the South Side Pullman

neighborhood. They come from churches, schools and men's and

women's clubs all over the country. There is seldom a shortage

of shoes, said Director Mona Purdy, but she can't always say the

same for the money that will allow them to get where they're

needed. “Shoes are step one,” Purdy said. “But shoes don't

get boxed and shipped without money.” So, Purdy said, she is

giving an open invitation to the society to support the

organization's yearly fundraiser (资金筹集活动). It will take place

this year on Thursday, Sept. 18, at Burnham Park Yacht Club, from

6 to 10 .

Set up in 1999 by Purdy, Share Your Soles has given out more

than two million pairs of new and gently used shoes to men,

women and children in developing countries throughout the

world. Purdy first learned of the crying need for shoes during a

trip to Central America, where she saw children painting tar (沥

青) on the bottom of their feet so they could run a race at a

festival in their village. She later met a visiting American doctor

who told her there would be less need for him to cut off the

infected (被感染的) legs of the children in the area if they had

shoes to wear. Since then, Purdy has started to help people with

this basic need. While many charities (慈善团体) may share the

same work, Purdy said, Share Your Soles is different in its way of

giving. She insists that receivers perform an act of kindness

before they are able to choose a pair of shoes to wear.

Despite (尽管) working 90 hours a week, Purdy said, her love

for Share Your Soles remains strong. “This is my life,” she said.

29. What is the main problem for Share Your Soles?

A. It is short of money.

B. It receives fewer shoes.

C. It has no place to store shoes.

D. It is little known by the public.

30. According to the text, Share Your Soles _____.

A. was created by a group of church members

B. has helped a large number of people

C. opens from 6 to 10 . every day

D. is at Burnham Park Yacht Club

31. What did Purdy learn from the visiting American doctor?

A. A local tradition of painting tar on feet.

B. The serious effects of having no shoes.

C. The common diseases of poor children.

D. An important festival in Central America.

32. Those who want to receive shoes from Share Your Soles

should _____.

A. pay a little money

B. be young children

C. be a charity worker

D. do a good thing first

Researchers have recently noted that Californian Blue Whales

have been making a comeback!

Blue whales are the largest animals ever to have lived on the

earth. They have been on the list of endangered animals for a

while now. Humans hunted blue whales more than 100 years ago,

and the animals almost die out. It is only recently that some of

their cousins are returning. It has been found that there are now

about 2,200 Californian Blue Whales today — nearly 97% of the

original (原先的) population, before humans started whaling.

Blue whales can live up to about 80 to 90 years. They are also

one

of the loudest animals on the earth. They make noises that

other whales can hear, up to 100 miles away. They spend winters

in warm waters to give birth and travel to the Arctic (北极的) seas

during summer in search of food.

Long ago, blue whales used to be plentiful in the oceans and

numbered in the hundreds of thousands. Now, there are only

10,000 to 25,000 of them worldwide. In the eighteenth and

nineteenth centuries, people would hunt whales for their organs

(器官). Japan and Russia were among the

best-known whaling nations. They hunted whales for food,

clothing and other valuable products. Over-hunting caused the
