24、inner table. I immediately sat back. The smell ruined my appetite, and I pushed the dish away.“Its supposed to stink. Just give it a try!” my grandmother said.Holding my breath, I unwillingly took a bite. To my surprise, the tofu beneath the fried skin was warm, soft, and mouthwatering. Since then,

25、whenever I visited my grandmothers house, I would rush to the kitchen for the stinky tofu with excitement. Thus, stinky tofu became more than a household tradition. It became my favorite dish.Along with the stinky tofu, I would meet my Uncle Chan on every visit. As an immature boy, I never understoo

26、d my uncles condition of Down syndrome ( 唐 氏 综 合 征 ). He was an unfriendly and terrible creature in my eyes. He constantly walked around the house, talking tohimself. Whenever he was within view, I would runaway in fear.However, one day, my view of my uncle suddenly changed. I was just getting out o

27、f my bedwhen 1 heard soft steps approaching. It was my uncle. My muscles froze. He slowly sat next to me and touched my face gently, as a mother would stroke (抚摸) a baby. A wide smile emerged (浮现出) from his blank expression. How beautiful his smile was! I could not help but smile back.My fear disapp

28、eared gradually and my muscles relaxed. For the first time, I could see softness and warmth in his eyes.My uncle very much resembles stinky tofu. Stinky tofu smells unpleasant on the outside, yet feels warm and soft on the inside. Like stinky tofu, my uncles Down syndrome made me keep my distance at

29、 first. Yet, I learned that deep inside, he is harmless and has a loving nature.Some people tend to look down upon disabled people and regard them as unfit for a regular life. As I was unable to see through the outer surface of the tofu, these people are unable to see through the surface of prejudic

30、e (偏见) . As a result, they judge the disabled with one glance.The outside and inside of the stinky tofu exist as two extremely different worlds. Perhaps that is what makes it such a tasty dish. Not only is it delicious, stinky tofu offers a valuable lesson: never judge people at first glance, for tr

31、ue beauty comes from the inside.51. Why did stinky tofu become the authors favorite dish?A. It was related to family tradition.B. It turned out to be quite delicious.C. Grandma encouraged him to try it.D. His appetite for food had increased.52. What did the author think of his uncle at first?A. He w

33、 expression made the author smile54.

What does the author mainly want to tell us in the

34、passage?A. We shouldnt judge by appearances.B. A persons taste changes over time. C. Blood is thicker than water.D. You are what you eat.BMADRID What is it that makes people happy? Youth, health, a good job, good looks, a flashy car? None of these things, Spanish experts say.The concept of happiness

35、 is coming under increasingly close examination in Spain. As the nation rises to the club of the worlds wealthiest countries, people are discovering that material things do not bring happiness.“Most people use money as a measure of human value,” says Jesus Yn-fante, author of a book on Spains 300 bi

36、ggest fortunes. “Expensive products are regarded as the best. The rich areadmired simply for being rich,” Yn-fante said. Yet psychologists (心理学家) warn that happiness cannot be bought. They advise people to look for it in human relations and in the small pleasures of everyday life.Many people regard

37、happiness as moment of ecstatic pleasure (狂喜) something that, bydefinition, cannot last while others speak of it as peace and acceptance of oneself. Polls (问卷 调 查 ) in different countries indicate that between 65 and 85 percent of the worlds population regard themselves as reasonably happy.Around 40

38、 percent of a persons happiness is thought to be determined by genetics ( 遗传),while the rest depends on childhood environment and the process of growing up.Perhaps the most surprising thing about happiness is that it has little to do with age, health, wealth, or other values thought to be important

39、in Western society.For most Spaniards, happiness is linked with feeling close to other people.Happy people accept their limitations and set themselves reachable goals, experts say. There are lifestyle choices which favour happiness, such as exercise, eating carbohydrates (含碳 水化合物的食物) and exposing on

40、eself to sunlight.But the main secret of happiness is to take pleasure in small things.“If you are given a choice between eternal (永久的) happiness and cheese sandwich, take the sandwich,” advises musician Julian Hernandez.56. Spain, as this passage tells us, .A. has built more clubs than the other co

41、untriesB. has owned the largest group of expertsC. has become one of the richest countries in the worldD. has produced the most wealth in the world57. It can be concluded that Jesus Yn-fante is .A. a famous and rich expertB. a famous psychologistC. one of the richest SpaniardsD. a writer familiar wi

43、rich familiesC. always enjoy every achievement they getD. always look down upon themselves60.

44、ving in the digital age, but reading books is still a big part of growing up. When theyre in primary school, children read books that really challenge them. But once they reach secondary school, the level of difficulty doesnt change much. Secondary school studentstend to read books which are also re

45、ad by upper primary students. They are not challenging themselves enough.To discover these trends, I analyzed data collected by Accelerated Reader (AR) software, which asks pupils to check their understanding of the books theyve chosen to read. The difficulty of the book is carefully measured and ex

46、pressed as a score of average difficulty which I call “readability”.I also created two lists of books: one for the books that most secondary pupils had chosen to read, and another for the books they had voted as their favorites. According to the readability, these students favorite books tend to be much more advanced than the other books they chose, but they could still understand them. The rest of the books most often chosen by them are quite simple.You might think that students who r
