Two days later, the man returned and wrote him a check for $ 10 .000. I thought. they re good burgers and fries, but theyre not that good, Luther told CTV New
20、s. The tipper was Bob Erb of British Columbia, who won Canadas $ 25 million Lotto Max jackpot ( 头奖) in November 2012 and has been giving money to people in need. Hes donated to food banks. senior groups, and local fire departments, and helped 20 people in Terrace, his hometown , get necessary dental
21、 care they couldn t afford. While making burgers that first afternoon , Luther told Erb that his 25 - year - old daughter had just been diagnosed with cancer in Vancouver, two provinces and about 1,000 miles away. It struck a chord. I lost a son four years ago and know the worries a parent has, says
22、 Erb. I decided on the way home I d Leave him some money so he could go and see his daughter. A few days later, Erb was on his way back to British Columbia after delivering his father s ashes to a family cemetery plot in Saskatchewan. He stopped at the diner for another burger. which Luther offered
23、to buy him because Erb had tipped him well just a few days before. Erb said no way and, while the burger was grilling. he asked the diner owner for a pen. then scrawled out the check and left it on the counter. Luther looked at the check and couldnt say anything.He just held his arms out. Erb says.
24、Erh .60, still works construction part-time and hasnt thought twice about parting with the $ 7 million he s given to family . friends, and the community. If you have enough to feed yourself, you help others out . he says.46. Clifford Luther DIDNT think that he received the money _. A. because his bu
25、siness was in trouble B. for his excellent service to the man C. because his burgers and fries were tastyD. for the good management of his diner47.

28、e candy months ago but never ate it. how can you tell whether its still edible (可以吃的) ? The easiest way is to check the expiration date (保质期) printed on the wrapper. If that date has already passed , youre likely to throw the candy away. But is that really necessary? According to a report, tons of f
29、ood is wasted each year. largely because people dont fully understand what expiration dates , o use-by dates , actually mean. Food dating was introduced in the 1970s, because consumers wanted more information about the things that they were eating. When they first showed up. use - by dates were only
30、 supposed to indicate freshness because producers wanted their products to be tasted in their best conditions. However, most customers mistakenly believed that use - by dates indicated how safe the food was , and they still largely do. But the truth is that these dates arent related to the risk of f
31、ood poisoning or food - borne illness. according to Time News. Eggs , for example, can still be eaten three to five weeks after purchase, even though the use by date is much earlier. When their use - by dates pass, strawberry juice may lose its red color and biscuits may lose their crunch ( 松脆的口感) b
32、ut they are not harmful. To stop consumers from misinterpreting the date and reduce the waste, scientists are calling for a standard explanation to be printed following the use - by dates. But this wont be a mistake that is easy to correct. since people have believed it for so long Another problem i
33、s that the quality levels of different foods change differently -some are still edible long after their use - by date while others are not. As a result, food industry officials are now thinking of changing the use - by date to a date indicating when food is most likely to spoil.51. Every year, tons
34、of food is thrown away because_. A. it is not safe to eat B. it has passed use - by dates C. the use - by dates are wrongly printed D. it is no longer fresh52.

37、 quality. B. The food dating should be stopped. C. Food industry is responsible for the food waste. D. Its easy for people to accept the new standard.C A new study has found that African elephants appear to use darkness to avoid being seen or heard when raiding(搜索) farmland for food. The study Also
38、showed that elephants carry out their food raids based on the appearance of the moon , or lunar cycle. Researchers believe the animals are doing this during the cover of darkness to avoid contact with human beings. A report on the study appeared in the African Journal of Ecology. Rachel Grant teache
39、s animal behavior at Anglia Ruskin University in England. She says elephants are cathemeral, meaning they are active both day and night. But she says, their raids on crops almost always take place at night. This suggests that the animals go near villages when they sense that their huge bodies are mo
40、re difficult to see Ms. Grant added that an elephants knowledge of the higher risk of being discovered on moonlit nights could explain its behavior during the lunar cycle. The study was carried out in and around Mikumi National Park in Tanzania. The park has one of the largest populations of wild el
41、ephants in Africa. It is about 300 kilometers west of Dar es Salaam . The researchers chose five villages near the wildlife area and counted how many times elephants raided crops. They found that few of elephant raid nights took place during a full moon. The amount of crop damage. also fell consider
42、ably during such periods. Rachel Grant says some elephants have what she calls an internally arising biological rhythm( 生物节律) or they may be basing their decision - making on local conditions. In her words, Many animals change their behavior according to varying light levels and the realizing risk o
43、f raiding foods. She says this rhythm is likely to be a partly evolved, partly learned response. Ms. Grant says the behavior probably is found in elephant populations in countries other than Tanzania. She adds that information from the study could be used to protect farms from elephant damage.56. Wh
44、at is the text mainly about? A. A new finding about elephant behavior. B. The relationship between animals and humans. C. Wild elephants living in Tanzania. D.

47、unt of pop culture phenomenon. However. despite their many similarities, there are huge cultural differences between these two countries. The following are some ways that Americans offend Brits. and vice versa. without knowing it. In both the UK and US. a V sign made with the index(食指) and middle fi
48、nger pointing up and the palm facing outwards is known as V for Victory . It is also the peace sign. In Britain. this same sign with the palm facing inwards is very rude. But for Americans. it simply doesnt mean anything at all. The ward Quite seems to be a common word. Americans use it, Brits use i
49、t. so it must be the same, right? Well no, not quite. An American guest may upset her UK hosts by describing their dinner as quite good. In British English , quite good only means pretty good or fairly good - in other words. the meal was passable but could have been better. But in American English .
50、 its much more positive. Quite good means very good. Brits exchange good - natured insults ( 调侃) because theyre too conservative and emotionally reserved to say how they really feel. The stronger their friendship is , the more they can make fun of each other and still come away with a warm feeling.
51、But this is not how Americans socialize. Tell a US friend hes an idiot( 白痴) , and you likely wont get invited to his wedding. When Brits meet foreigners. theyre not always as welcoming as they should be. Americans in particular can take this the wrong way - they say that the British are known for be
52、ing cold and unfriendly. For Americans. looking shocked when someone says to you Hi! How are you today? instead of immediately responding with equal enthusiasm. is seen as rude.61. What is the text mainly about?. A. The cultural differences between the US and UK. B. The similarities of American and
53、British culture. C. The exchanges between American and British culture. D. The differences between American and British English.62. The V sign with the palm facing outwards A. means different thing in the UK and US B. is very rude for British people C. stands for victory in both the UK and US D. mea
54、ns nothing at all in the US63. When an American describes the dinner as quite good , he means that_. A. it is not so good B. it is just so-so C. it is acceptable D. it is really good64. When you make fun of an American friend as an idiot , he will_. A. have a warm feeling B. never take it too seriou
55、sly C. invite you to his wedding D. get annoyed 65. We can learn from the last paragraph that_.
