One day a mother camel and her son walked through a desert. They were looking for water and grass.
The son asked, “What do water and grass look like, Mum?”His mother answered, “Water looks like the sky, blue and clear.While grass is green, fresh and nice.”
After they walked for a day and a night, the son suddenly cried, “Look!Mum,there is water and grass over there!”
“What a foolish talk,my boy!”
The water and grass were on the left,while the desert was on the right.But because the mother camel was blind( 瞎的  )in her left eye,she could only see a sea of yellow sand with her right eye.So she didn’t believe what the young camel said.
The next day they went on walking ,the young camel found a second oasis ,but his mother still did not believe him. She said angrily, “No,that’s not an oasis,but a desert. I have more knowledge and experience than you. You are wrong again. You should listen to me.”
This time the young camel was angry with his mother,too. So when he saw an oasis for the third time, he left his mother without telling her.He ran to the grass and ate his fill. But his poor mother was still walking on and she was still hungry and thirsty.

For 99% of human history, people took their food from the world around them. They ate all that they could find, and then moved on. Then around 10,000 years ago, about 1% of human history, people learned to farm the land.
The kind of food we eat depends on which part of the world we live in, or which part of our country we live in. For example, in the south of China they eat rice, but in the north they eat noodles. In European countries near the sea, people eat a lot of fish. In central Europe, away from the sea, people don’t eat so much fish, but they eat more meat. For example, in Germany and Poland, there are hundreds of different kinds of sausages.
In North America, Australia, and Europe, people eat with knives and forks. In China, people eat with chopsticks. In parts of India and the Middle East, people use their fingers to pick up food.
Nowadays it is possible to transport food easily from one part of the world to another. We can eat whatever we like, at any time of the year. In Britain, bananas come from Africa; rice comes from India or the U.S.A.; strawberries come from Chile or Spain. Food is a very big business. But people in poor countries are still hungry while people in rich countries eat too much.

科目:初中英語 來源:不詳 題型:閱讀理解

Nearly all kids have had the same experience. They are eating in a restaurant with their parents. They finished the spaghetti minutes ago. Now, they are bored. Their little brother is kicking them under the table. He is also complaining about the desserts(餐后甜點(diǎn)). Yet their parents are still eating and talking…and talking…and talking.
“Be patient.” One parent says. “We’ll have dessert soon.”
All kids know what happens next. After dessert, their parents drink coffee. Then they talk some more. Again, the children must wait. They have been in school all day and would rather be running and playing. Instead, they must sit in a chair and stare at a wall.
Going to a restaurant doesn’t have to be this way. Many restaurants say they are “family-friendly”. Family restaurants, such as fast-food restaurants should play areas for children. At these restaurants, almost every play area is a big room full of climbing equipment. The room is usually, packed with happy kids. Parents can eat while the children play. Everyone is happy.
The real problem begins when families want to eat a fancier meal(大餐). The parents don’t want to hurry through the meal but talk to each other. They do not have bored children pestering(煩擾) them about leaving. That’s no fun for kids either. For them, going to a nicer restaurant means just one thing: sit still and be quiet.
On family blogs across the Web, dozens of parents post the same question all the time; are there any nicer restaurants with play areas for kids? Research shows that some nicer restaurants do have play areas. In warmer cities, it is easier for restaurants to build play areas outside. For example, at one restaurant kids can sail tiny little motor boats in a small, shallow pond. Parents can sit on a beautiful yard and watch the kids play. Some nicer restaurants even have indoor play areas. Research also shows that these restaurants serve more than just burgers, chickens and fries.
So, it’s possible for a restaurant to provide both food and a place where kids can play. These restaurants seem to be popular, too. For some, families must have reservation days in advance. For others, families might be forced to wait in long lines. Clearly, quality food and safe play areas are both good for business.
小題1:Why do children get unhappy at the restaurant?
A.Because they can’t join in their parents’ talk.
B.Because the dessert isn’t served in time.
C.Because they can do nothing but wait.
D.Because the food there isn’t delicious.
小題2:What is the real problem mentioned in the passage?
A.Children don’t like eating fancier food.
B.Not many nicer restaurants provide play areas.
C.Parents don’t trouble to comfort their bored kids.
D.People have to wait for seats in nicer restaurants.
小題3:What conclusion can we draw from the research?
A.It’s common for nicer restaurants to provide good food and play areas.
B.Building play areas is more difficult for restaurants in colder cities.
C.Serving more kinds of foods may help restaurants to make more money.
D.It’s possible for restaurants to find a balance to make both happy.
小題4:What does the writer mainly want to tell us?
A.Cities need to help develop restaurant business.
B.Children are supposed to be much more patient.
C.Restaurants are supposed to give kids some space.
D.Parents need to care more about their kids when eating.

Dear Mr. King,
Your supermarket chain is excellent in many ways. I enjoy the things you sell, such as the selection of produce (農(nóng)產(chǎn)品) and fresh bakery items. I have been a long time supermarket shopper and hope to continue for many years. I have found, however, that I must make a separate shopping trip to one of your competitors because there are many items your store does not carry. This becomes inconvenient for me, as my time is valuable, and I do not like to make two trips. Your low prices and excellent customer service keep me coming back to your supermarket, but I would be a more satisfied customer if I could find all the items I need in one place.
To tell the truth, I have never been able to purchase nacho (烤干酪辣味玉米片) cheese soup at your store. I can find other flavors (味道) of soup, but your store does not carry nacho cheese soup, a common ingredient (原料) in many of my recipes. In addition, I can only find large wonton wrappers (餛飩皮), while many other stores carry both large and small and offer a more varied selection for their customers. Another example is Regent Brand Chili Seasoning. Though it is not a leading brand, it is still common on the shelves of other grocery stores in this area and is superior in flavor to its competitors.
I sincerely hope to continue a relationship with your store, and I hope that you will consider the possibility of expanding your goods to be more competitive.
Yours truly,
Bob Watson 
小題1:According to the passage, who often buy things in the supermarket?
A.Mr. King.B.Bob Watson.
C.Regent Brand.D.Mrs. Watson.
小題2:From the first paragraph, we know the supermarket chain ________.
A.meets all the writer’s needsB.is the best in every way
C.offers good customer serviceD.is far from the writer’s home
小題3:How does the writer present his point in Paragraph Two?
A.By giving examples.
B.By using some sharp words.
C.By providing scientific findings.
D.By comparing two different stores.
