32、er books completely new. I understand her. But once I get to know the book, I cant help but show it some tough love.

33、e book by my favorite author Diana Gabaldon that looks like rubbish. Its completely wrinkled up from rain, and on its way to falling apart. I brought it like that to have her sign it.

35、l my other cook books, its worn, and there are dirty marks of food in it. The book is called Tex-Mex - Food, Music and the Joy of Life from Texas. Just as the title suggests, this is more than a cook book.These are the words on the very first page:Tex-Max hasnt been trendy for over 30 years. Conside
36、ring its anything but cheap in calories, it probably never will be, either. Tacos (墨西哥卷) are instead all about such an untrendy things as a love for life. Its something you enjoy while spending time with your loved ones. .We hope, therefore, that this cook book will soon be as dirty as a really old
37、and used cook book should be.Oh, how true! How wonderfully put! And its the same thing for books: whether youre a book preserver or a book abuser, the approach is based on love and a joy for life.

47、 thin. This saying often attributed to the late Duchess (公爵夫人) of Windsor embodies much of the odd spirit of our times. Being thin is deemed as such a virtue.The problem with such a view is that some people actually attempt to live by it. I myself have fantasies of slipping into narrow designer clot
48、hes. Consequently, I have been on a diet for the better - or worse - part of my life. Being rich wouldnt be bad either, but that wont happen unless an unknown relative dies suddenly in some distant land, leaving me millions of dollars.Where did we go off the track? When did eating butter become a si
49、n, and a little bit of extra flesh unappealing, if not repellent? All religions have certain days when people refrain from eating, and excessive eating is one of Christianitys seven deadly sins. However until quite recently, most people had a problem getting enough to eat. In some religious groups,
50、wealth was a symbol of probable salvation and high morals, and fatness a sign of wealth and well-being.Today the opposite is true. We have shifted to thinness as our new mark of virtue. The result is that being fat - or even only somewhat overweight - is bad because it implies a lack of moral streng
51、th.Our obsession (迷恋) with thinness is also fueled by health concerns. It is true that in this country we have more overweight people than ever before, and that, in many cases, being over weight correlates with an increased risk of heart and blood vessel disease. These diseases, however, may have as
52、 much to do with our way of life and our high-fat diets as with excess weight. And the associated risk of cancer in the digestive system may be more of a dietary problem - too much fat and a lack of fiber - than a weight problem.The real concern, then, is not that we weigh too much, but that we neit
53、her exercise enough nor eat well. Exercise is necessary for strong bones and both heart and lung health. A balanced diet without a lot of fat can also help the body avoid many diseases. We should surely stop paying so much attention to weight. Simply being thin is not enough. It is actually hazardou
54、s if those who get (or already are) thin think they are automatically healthy and thus free from paying attention to their overall lifestyle. Thinness can be pure vainglory (虚荣).63.

58、if you dont know what direction you need to go in a maze.C. In Ireland and Wales, pictures of mazes are put on jewelry and in paintings.D. Donnie Fulks and his four sons cut some paths here and there through the tall corn.E. Kids and adults have a wonderful time working together to find their way to
59、 the end.F. The Fulks family have made large profits from it.Even if thieves managed to enter a pyramid, they would probably never find their way out. Other ancient mazes have been found, from Sweden to New Mexico. Some are caved in rock or painted on cave walls, while others are built from dirt, st
60、ones or bricks. _67_ Mazes have been built into the tall hedges (树篱) of large gardens in England.In 1986 the Fulks family of Fredericksburg, Virginia, decided to create a maze in their cornfield on the Belvedere Plantation. _68_ Soon this “Maize Maze” was so familiar that the Fulkses found themselve
61、s creating a new maze each year as a new crop filled the field.Some people return each year. To make it challenging for them, each corny maze is somewhat different from the previous ones. In 1998 the Fulks family invited the world-famous maze designer Adrian Fisher to create a huge maze. _69_. Each
62、new pattern was first worked out on a computer, and the one used in 2022 had to be explained eighteen times before it was just right. After it was finished, Donnie Fulks and his sons took a detailed drawing of the pattern divided into squares, and then started the cutting job. They then started cutt
63、ing the design into the corn field.The Fulks familys maze is open while the corn is tall. Visitors are given flags to mark their progress and to wave for help if they are quiet. _70_. Built into the 2022 maze were several surprises. It started in the center of the cornfield, making it the worlds onl
64、y inside-out maze!Summary WritingAirline seats have been one-size-fits-all since the beginning. Today, those 16.5 to 18-inch wide seats are anything but.According to the World Health Organization (WHO), obesity (肥胖症) has more than doubled since 1980. In 2022, more than l.9 billion adults were overwe
65、ight, and over 600 million were obese.The unchanged seat size and increase of obese passengers highlight the conflict between airlines needs and basic passenger rights.Last month, lawyer Giorgio Destro, an Italian lawyer, sued Emirates, claiming his flight was disturbed by an obese passenger seated
66、next to him. According to reports, Destro was not able to comfortably sit in his assigned seat, and spent much of the nine-hour flight standing or sitting in crew seats, because a 400-pound passenger took up half of his seat.Many airlines have responded to the growing obesity by insisting passengers
67、 of size buy two seats to ensure safety and comfort. Samoa Air, for example, is charging by weight (which has become known as a “fat tax”). At first glance, the fat tax issue sounds discriminatory (歧视的), but some argue that this is purely down to numbers. A kilo is a kilo. It has nothing to do, with
68、 the condition of the weight. The heavier a plane is, the more fuel it burns through. In other words, the argument is whether it is fair that a 150-pound person is charged for their 50-pound bag, when a 300-pound person with a carry-on isnt charged anything extra.However, Peggy Howell of NAAFA argue
69、s that obesity is an illness, and that obese people should be entitled to having certain rights protected.“We question the legality of the discriminatory policy and whether it violates the Air Carrier Access Act governing the treatment of passengers with disabilities,” she says. “The American Medica
70、l Association (AMA) recently declared obesity a disease, which should make fat passengers a protected class.”Howell points out that the Canadian Transportation Agency (CTA) addressed this issue in 2022, and issued a one-person, one-fare ruling covering passengers with disabilities. Those passengers
71、include ones who are clinically obese and who cannot fit into a single seat.Translation1. 她正准备打电话给父母时来了一条语音信息。（about）2. 我还没来得及提醒他保守这个秘密，他就匆匆挂了电话。（before）3. 任何情况下，父母都不能强迫孩子做超出他们能力范围的事。(Under no circumstances)4. 有些地区过于强调学业成绩。事实上，应该鼓励学生参加社会时间见来提高应对各种困难的能力。（emphasis）Guided Writing在李华18岁生日即将到来之际，他父亲准备送他一份生日礼物，为此，他特意征求了李华的意见。假如你是李华，你会选择哪份礼物，阐述你选择这份礼物的原因。1.
