9、ghth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didnt understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I
10、 happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk. Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up;
11、 she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously
12、about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things. Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as
13、if I was copying answers from the girls test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very very strange to her that I hadnt talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a

17、ing to save a farm that their father worked on since he was 14. Although confident they will succeed, she lists farmings many challenges:“You dont often get a day off. Supermarkets put a lot of pressure on farmers to keep prices low. With fewer people working on farms it can be isolating,” she said.
18、 “There is a high rate of suicide and farming will never make you rich!”Like others around the world, Charlottes generation tend to leave the farm for cities.Oliver Robinson, 25, grew up in Yorkshire. But he never considered staying on his father and grandfathers land. “Im sure dad hoped Id stay,” h
19、e said. “I guess its a nice, straightforward life, but it doesnt appeal to me. For young, ambitious people, farm life is hard”.For Robinson, farming doesnt offer much “in terms of money or lifestyle”. Hollins agrees that economic factors stop people from enjoying the rewards of farming. He describes
20、 it as a career that provides “for a vital human need”, allowing people to work “outdoors with nature”.Farming is a big political issue in the UK. The “Buy British” campaigns urge consumers not to purchase cheaper imported foods. The 2001 foot and mouth crisis closed thousands of farms, stopped meat
21、 exports, and raised public consciousness about the troubles on UK farms.Celebrity chef Jamie Olivers 2005 campaign to get children eating healthily also highlighted the issue.This national concern gives hope to farmers competing with powerful supermarkets. While most people buy food from the big su

26、 farms and begin to save farms. D It is important to protect yourself from harmful rays. But if you think a high-factor sunscreen keeps you safe from harmful rays, you may be wrong. Research in this weeks Nature shows that while factor 50 reduces the number of melanomas（黑瘤）and delays their occurrenc
27、e, it cant prevent them. Melanomas are the most aggressive skin cancers. You have a higher risk if you have red or blond hair, fair skin, blue or green eyes, or sunburn easily, or if a close relative has had one. Melanomas are more common if you have periodic intense exposure to the sun. Other skin
28、cancers are increasingly likely with long-term exposure. There is continuing debate as to how effective sunscreen is in reducing melanomas the evidence is weaker than it is for preventing other types of skin cancer. A 2011 Australian study of 1,621 people found that people randomly selected to apply
29、 sunscreen daily had half the rate of melanomas of people who used cream as needed. A second study, comparing 1,167 people with melanomas to 1.101 who didnt have the cancer, found that using sunscreen routinely, alongside other protection such as hats, long sleeves or staying in the shade, did give
30、some protection. This study said other forms of sun protection no sunscreen seemed most beneficial. The study relied on people remembering what they had done over each decade of their lives, so its not entirely reliable. But it seems reasonable to think sunscreen gives people a false sense of securi
31、ty in the sun. Many people also dont use sunscreen properly applying insufficient amounts, failing to reapply after a couple of hours and staying in the sun too long. It is sunburn that is most worrying recent research shows five episodes of sunburn in the teenage years increases the risk of all ski
32、n cancers. The good news is that a combination of sunscreen and covering up can reduce melanoma rates, as shown by Australian figures from their slip-slop-slap campaign. So if there is a heat wave this summer, it would be best for us, too, to slip on a shirt, use sunscreen and slap on a hat.32. What
33、s peoples common expectation of high-factor sunscreen?A. It will protect them from sunburn. B. It will keep their skin smooth ad fair.C. It will work for people of any skin color.D. It will delay the occurrence of skin cancer.33. What can we learn from the second paragraph?A. Sunscreen can prevent a
34、ll kinds of skin cancers.B. The studies are based on direct observation of the subjects.C. The studies may help people select the most effective sunscreen.D. Daily application of sunscreen helps reduce the incidence of melanomas.34. What does the author suggest in order to reduce melanoma rates?A. S
35、taying in the shade whenever possible.B. Using covering up instead of sunscreen.C. Using both covering up and sunscreen.D. Applying the right amount of sunscreen.35.

37、t dont worry. There are car rental companies that can help you with your traveling needs at anytime. If you are planning on a vacation during a major holiday like Christmas, consider hiring a car for you and your familys use. The obvious benefits of doing so are as follows：Some rental companies even
38、 include a driver with every car rented.

39、e exact opposite of having to ride the bus, which has to keep to its route no matter how jammed the roads are. 39 . This is especially true for the ones hired from reputable rental companies. If you have planned your holiday in a hurry, you might have missed checking on your cars condition. If this
40、is the case, it is wise to rent a car because it will not break down on your way at all.Traveling in your own car is a lot more comfortable, to be frank, than riding the train or bus.
