　　本文讲述了一个国王为了考验两个人，让他们往篮子里打水，忠诚的人不遗余力地往空篮子里打水，直到国王归来。结果不仅获得了一枚金戒指，而且得到了国王的信任。

　　答案简析

　　1．C。这里did和finished都表示完成了这项工作，而给篮子装满水是不可能的，国王应在两人开始打水后不久离开，所以应选began。

　　2．B。往篮子里盛满水是永远不可能的，故选择never。

　　3．A。两者中的另一个用the other加名词来表示。

　　4．C。the first man想离开，因为他觉得自己干的是无用功，故选择nothing意为“从事某项工作”。

　　5．D。pick up意为“捡起”，pick away意为“放好”，take away意为“取走”，而throw down意为“扔掉、丢弃”，比较贴近文意，为正确选项。

　　6．A。根据文意，另一个人一直在打水，故选water。

　　7．B。不停地打水必然会导致井空，故选empty。

　　8．B。while引导从句时，从句应用延续性动词，before和since不符合文意，as soon as…表示“一……就”为正确选项。

　　10．D。国王讲的最后一句话是含有 “so……that”结构的复合句，意为“如此……以致”故选that。

　　Wondering how many calories the banana cream pie on your plate has? Some Japanese have a novel way to find out: Photograph it with a cellphone and send the image to an expert. With cellphones becoming common in Japan and rising concern over expanding waistlines, health-care providers will allow the calorie-conscious people to send photos of their meals to nutritionists (营养学家) for advice.

　　Public health insurance offices in Osaka in Western Japan have launched the service on a trial basis. About 100 cardiac (心脏病的) patients signed up in the first year, followed by diabetes and obesity patients in the second. “Japanese have been getting fatter, especially men in their 20s and 30s. There is concern over what they learned about nutrition when they were younger,” the Osaka official, Satomi Onishi, said. “We’re hoping that this program can help us deal with the problem.”

　　Osaka is using a system developed by Asahi Kasei Corp. The system is operating among about 150 health-care providers and local governments around the country Nutritionists can work with photos from one day’s meals to several weeks’ worth. Results come back in three days. People can also log on a website to get further information.

　　Dr Yutaka Kimura has developed a similar system at Kansai Medical University’s Hirakata Hospital, also in Osaka. Five patients have taken part in the programme, which costs $37 to join and $21 per month. Patients photograph meals over the course of three to seven days, and a nutritionist e-mails advice to them. “Patients used to fill in meal logs, but people tend to forget things or underestimate (低估) their portions (份),” Kimura said. “Photographing meals and e-mailing them can be easier and get more accurate results.”

　　As Japanese have turned to bigger portions and more meat and fried foods, obesity and related illnesses such as high blood pressure have become a rising concern. The Health Ministry estimated last year that more than half of Japanese men and about one in five women between 40 and 70 years old were at the increased risk of heart disease, type II diabetes and other diseases because of obesity. With the Health Ministry hoping to see a 25% reduction in the number of people at the risk of these diseases by 2015, Osaka officials hope the cellphone program will help.

　　New function of cellphones

　　There is a growing concern about health and (2) _____ slim. Obesity may result (3) _____ diseases such as high pressure, heart disease, type II diabetes and so on. They hope the cellphone programme will help to (4) _____ the number of people who are at the risk of these diseases. Ways

Another system has also developed in which advice is (9) _____ to patients after a nutritionist gets (10) _____ amount

　　of nutrition from the photographed meals over the course of three to seven days.

　　Further information can be got by (8) _____ on a website.

　　We bet that on cold wintry days, many of you love to stay in your warm home and, every now and then，come out into the kitchen for a snack. Unfortunately, plenty of creepy-crawly critters (爬行生物) like to do the same thing!

　　Winter is the time when bugs (虫子) invade your house without an invitation. The season can be tough for such creatures. In winter the air is cold, the ground is hard and many trees have no leaves. So bugs do what they have to do to survive.

　　Monarch butterflies head south to warmer climates. Ants crowd in deep underground colonies and eat food they have been storing all year. Many insects go into a deep sleep called diapauses. There’ re different kinds of diapauses, but all are similar to hibernation, a time when bigger animals become inactive in the cold. Insects go into an inactive period, too, but it often isn’ t when the temperature drops.

　　They rely on more dependable signals in the environment. For example, many insects can tell how much sunlight there’ s each day. They use that to tell themselves when to shut down. Bugs are cold-blooded, meaning that their inside temperature is the same as the outside. They can’ t move much when it gets below 40 degrees Fahrenheit. So they search for any warm place.

　　They’ re looking for protection. These guys have been doing this for 300 million years, so they don’ t really know they’ re coming into your house. The home is a recent event in terms of their evolutionary behavior. They enter through tiny cracks or come in unnoticed on your clothes or shoes. Remember that they may be invading your homes for warmth and food, but they don’t care about humans.

　　[长难句解读]　(1)There’re different kinds of diapauses，but all are similar to hibernation，a time when bigger animals become inactive in the cold.

　　此句是but连接的并列复合句，but后的部分中a time是hibernation的同位语，而且后面接了when引导的定语从句。

　　(2)Bugs are cold-blooded，meaning that their inside temperature is the same as the outside.

　　句中的meaning相当于which means；meaning后接that引导的宾语从句，在此宾语从句中含有the same as结构。
