26、 prevent us from getting certain diseases or types of infection.Vaccines got their start in Europe in the 1720s, when a British woman named Lady Mary Wortley Montagu was visiting Turkey. She saw Turkish doctors purposefully inoculating (接种) people with small amounts of smallpox. Smallpox is a painfu
27、l, deadly disease that had no cure at the time. But Lady Montagu was amazed that the patients not only recovered, but then proved to be immune (免疫的) to the disease!Lady Montagu quickly returned to England, excited to share this new procedure. But inoculation took many years to catch on. One problem
28、was that no one had a correct way of inoculating people safely. Occasionally, patients would become fully infected and then begin spreading the disease. However, inoculation eventually saved enough people for it to become the common practice for preventing smallpox.Some years later, a scientist name
29、d Edward Jenner discovered that people who had been infected with a disease called cowpox became resistant to smallpox. Cowpox was less much harmful than smallpox. Jenner convinced doctors to inoculate people with cowpox, which led to a very safe vaccine and far fewer outbreaks of smallpox. Finally,
30、 a French scientist named Louis Pasteur realized that Jenners idea could be used to treat other diseases. Since then, vaccines have been made for many other diseases, such as polio, tetanus, and rabies.Today, scientists and doctors continue to create new vaccines that could potentially save millions

33、asteis a huge issue in our world today. In my own kitchen, Im always looking for clever ways to prevent waste. By far, my biggest challenge when it comes to saving produce is greens. Im talking about herbs, leafy greens and lettuces. They can go bad quickly if theyre not properly stored.Thats why Im
34、 so glad I found out about the OXO Greensaver Herb Keeper. It acts as a storage container for herbs, keeping them fresh and crisp. The way it does this is by controlling three things: airflow, humidity(湿度) and hydration(水合). To get the right airflow, the herbs stand upright in a basket that nests in
35、side the main container, which prevents them from lying flat as they normally would in other containers. The humidity is controlled by the storage lid, and the herbs stay hydrated by water that is added to the bottom of the container. Genius!My herbs did so much better in this container versus a pla
36、stic grocery store bag. In a bag, they usually start turning brown within a few days, and with the Greensaver, they lasted a week or longer. I also found this helpful in storing chopped lettuce. The lettuce greens were crisper and stayed fresh longer. I buy herbs and lettuce every week, so this is g
37、oing to make a big difference in the amount of greens I waste, which is the most important. Whats more, its easy to clean up all the Greensaver parts are dishwasher safe, so theres no extra trouble involved.If you also buy greens regularly, I highly recommend getting one of these.It will make a huge
38、 difference in the quality and shelf life of your herbs, lettuce and more so you can say goodbye to sad greens!32. Whats the authors biggest challenge in terms of saving produce? A. It is difficult to store. B. It is easy to waste. C. Greens go bad quickly. D. Greens are expensive.33. How does the G
39、reensaver work? A. By controlling airflow, humidity and hydration. B. By preventing herbs lying flat. C. By using the storage lid. D. By adding water to the bottom of the container.34. Whats the biggest advantage of the Greensaver over a plastic bag? A. Keeping green food much longer. B. Storing mor
40、e chopped lettuce. C. Less trouble in cleaning up. D. Less waste of the amount of greens.35. Whats the authors purpose of writing this passage? A. To call on people not to waste green food. B. To share using experience of the Greensaver.C. To tell people how to keep green food long enough.D. To tell
41、 people how to choose a food storage container.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。Camping is fun and exciting.
