17、ew play.C. Competing in spots activities.D. Visiting the dinosaur exhibition. BBlind tasting is a very strange activity. Contrary to what many imagine, it has nothing to do with blindfolds. It involves tasting a wine without seeing the label and it can deliver shocking surprises. I tasted seven cham
18、pagnes(香槟) blind with a group of professionals recently. There was a shock when they discovered the wine most of them preferred carried a label they regarded as their least favorite. That sort of result is especially common with champagne, the most image-driven rather than quality-driven wine of all
19、. But it happens all the time when wine is tasted blind. Because Im interested in how wines really taste instead of how I think they should, I taste wine blind as often as I can, especially when assessing similar young wines. But blind tasting when you know absolutely nothing about the wine in front
20、 of you is something completely different. The most difficult Master of Wine exams include three sessions during which you have a dozen glasses in front of you and nothing more helpful than a printed exam paper asking you to identify (鉴定) each wine as closely as possible, and assess its quality. Now
21、 that the MW is behind me, I taste wine completely blind only very rarely, and never in public. So my blind tastings these days are round the dinner table with good friends and once a year when I act as a judge, with Hugh Johnson, in the Oxford v Cambridge wine-tasting competition. This is the most
22、extraordinary match, always held before the Boat Race but taken just as seriously nowadays. This years taste-off took place at the end of last month, as usual in the Oxford and Cambridge Club on Pall Mall in London. 24. Which of the following is true about Blind tasting?A. Blind tasting is the profe
23、ssional way to identify a wine.B. Blind tasting usually has the right result.C. Blind tasting means tasting a wine with ones eyes covered.D. Blind tasting is tasting a wine without seeing the label.25. Why did the professionals get shocked at the result of their blind tasting? A. They got all the re
24、sults correctly. B. They didnt recognize their favorite at all.C. The writer made no mistakes. D. Champagnes can not be tasted blind.26. Which of the following interests the writer most? A. Assessing young wines. B. Master of wine exams. C. Tasting wine blind in public. D. Oxford v Cambridge wine-ta

26、ngkok has become the worlds top tourist destination, with 15.98 million visitors projected to visit Thailands capital city this year, according to the third annual Global Destination Cities Index released by MasterCard on Monday.

Mondays report marked the first time any Asian city has been projected to be the top-ranked tourist destin

Paris, meanwhile, saw a small dip in its number of tourists (negative 0.7%). Caroline Lledo, who was visiting Bangkok from F

MasterCard surveyed 131 cities.DWhy Are Pig Farmers Still Using Growth-Promoting Drugs?It s one of the most controversial practices in agriculture:
35、feeding small amounts of antibiotics to animals in order to make them grow faster. But what if the drugs don t even work very well? There s some good evidence that they don t, at least in pigs. They used to deliver a boost in growth, but that effect has disappeared in recent years or declined greatl
36、y. The reason for this is interesting and even paradoxical. Researchers think the antibiotics used to work by suppressing low-grade infections. In recent years, however, pork producers found other ways to accomplish the same thing through improved hygiene (卫生). As a result, the drugs have become lar
37、gely superfluous yet many farmers still use them.To understand how this happened, you have to step back in time, says Steve Dritz, a specialist in pig nutrition at Kansas State University. Sixty years ago, when antibiotics were new, “people started treating animals, and feeding the antibiotics, and
38、finding that they had increased growth rates and feed efficiencies,” he says. Nursery-age pigs, for instance, grew 12 to 15 percent faster with antibiotics. The animals also needed less feed to reach full weight. Other studies showed similar results in chickens and cattle. In the 1980s, a new set of
39、 studies found similar effects. So the growth-promoting effects of antibiotics became standard practice among meat producers. Fast forward to the 1990s. Dritz was starting his career as a scientist at Kansas State University, and pork production was changing dramatically. Previously, pigs were born
40、and raised in one barn or in several barns close together. This meant infections could easily pass from one generation to the next, the way that kids share germs between their friends on the playground and their parents at home. Under the new system, when piglets are weaned, they move to a whole dif
41、ferent place. That new site is carefully scrubbed and free of disease.Craig Rowles, who runs a large swine operation in Carroll, Iowa, shows me one such room. Theres not a piglet in sight. “This room just got completely washed and disinfected, and now it s going to sit here and dry for a while,” he
42、says. A whole group of pigs will come in here together, and later they will move out together to yet another site. “That group of pigs will stay together until they go to market,” Rowles says.The groups are kept strictly separated from each other. If workers move between the groups, they first have
43、to change their boots.When farmers adopted multisite production, it cut down on disease and pigs actually grew faster.32. One of the advantages of using antibiotics in the past is that it _. A. helped animals grow faster C. helped animals have a better appetiteB. decreased the death rate of animalsD
44、. increased animal reproduction33.Pigs were more easily infected in the past because _. A. they used antibiotics C. they were raised on the playgroundB. they were always close togetherD. they moved from one farm to another34.The underlined word “superfluous” most probably means _. A. abusedB. necess
45、aryC. availableD. addictive35.The author seems _ on the issue of dropping antibiotics on pigs. A. optimisticB. worriedC. doubtfulD indifferent第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。We all see and hear about extraordinary people around us and wonder why cant we be more like the
46、m? Its not the big things that make someone extraordinary. Here are some small things that extraordinary people do every day: 36 Just because youre the boss, doesnt mean you are right every time. Learn to back up your decisions with reason. Use logic(逻辑) to explain things, not authority. By doing th
47、is your decisions might invite criticism, but you will also get an opportunity to improve.They are generous with compliments（恭维）. Remember the time, when you worked really hard but got nothing in return. Not even a thank- you._37_ So every chance you get to praise someone, do it. A simple, “That was
48、 some great work, keep it up,” can go a long way in making the employees feel great about themselves. 38 They are helpful. Never hesitate to help someone. Its fairly simple but it goes a long way. Dont be non-committal（不负责的）and say something vague（含糊）like, “Can I help you?” because they might just s
49、ay, “No, Im good.” 39 “I had the same problem with this coffee machine in the morning. I think I have figured a way to make it work.” Offer in a way that feels mutually beneficial（互利）.Theyre in charge of their emotions. Sometimes it is very important to stay silent. Especially when youre angry, you

So they take their time to think back to what happened, and then come to a decision about how to deal with it. 40 Never be too casual with words or actions.A. They are sensitive to others.B. The key is to be specific.C. A compliment can hav
51、e a positive impact on their lives.D. When you feel awkward receiving a compliment, give the person a smile.E. They are open to criticism.F. It hurts when your efforts are not recognized.G.
