1.中国政府十分重视人民的饮食健康
中国政府十分重视人民的健康饮食（diet）。通过大力提倡健康饮食，人们对合理营养增进健康的重要性有了更加深刻的认识。“吃得安全、吃得营养、吃得健康”是人民对美好生活的基本需要，是提升人民幸福感的必然要求，也为食品产业的发展提供了新机遇。目前，各级政府都在采取多种举措确保人民饮食健康，推进健康中国的建设。
The Chinese government attaches great importance to the people’s healthy diet. By vigorously advocating healthy diet, people are deeplyaware of the importance of reasonable nutrition to enhance health. Eating safely, nutritiously and healthily is the people’s basic demand for a better life, an inevitable requirement for improving the people’s sense of happiness, and also provides new opportunities for the development of the food industry. Recently, governments at all levels are taking various measures to ensure people’s healthy diet and promote the construction of a healthy China.
2.改革开放 生活水平提高
改革开放以来，中国人的饮食 (diet) 发生了显著变化。过去由于经济落后，食品种类有限、数量不足，人们仅仅满足于吃得饱。如今中国经济快速发展，食品不仅更加丰富多样，质量也大幅提高。随着生活水平不断提升，人们对饮食的要求越来越高，更加注重吃得营养健康。因此，目前市场上推出的低脂、低糖、有机食品受到人们的普遍欢迎。
Since the reform and opening-up, remarkable changes have taken place in Chinese people's diet. In the past, due to the backward economy, the limited types of food and the insufficient quantity, people were only satisfied with being full. With the rapid development of China's economy, food is not only more diverse, but also has much higher quality. With the continuous improvement of living standards, people have increasingly higher requirements for diet, and attach more importance to food nutrition and health. Therefore, the low fat, low sugar, organic food promoted on the market gains more popularity among people.
3.改革开放 物流业发展
改革开放以来，中国人民生活水平不断提高，这在人们的饮食(diet)变化上得到充分体现。如今，人们不再满足于吃得饱，而是追求吃得更加安全、更加营养、更加健康，食物也愈来愈丰富多样，不再限于本地的农产品。物流业 (logistics industry)的发展使人们很容易品尝到全国各地的特产。毫无疑问，食品质量与饮食结构的改善为增进人们健康提供了有力的保障。
Since the reform and opening up, the living standard of the Chinese people has been continuously improved, which is fully reflected in the change of people's diet. Today, people are no longer satisfied with eating enough, but are seeking to eat more safely, nutritiously, and healthier. Foods are more diverse as well, without being limited to local produce. The development of the logistics industry has made it easy for people to taste specialties from all over the country. There is no doubt that the improvement of food quality and diet structure provides a strong guarantee for the promotion of people's health.

Dear Editorial Team,
I am a student of our school, and I want to write an article to write about what happened in our school a few days ago, which impressed us all deeply.
Last weekend, the Student Union of our school organized a very meaningful activity called The Movie Night. Students from all grades and majors watched a movie—Jane Eyre. Through this film, we met an inspirational woman. Jane was a poor orphan with an unhappy childhood, but her ingenuity stood out at Thornfield, where she worked as a governess. After watching the inspiring film, the Student Union organized a sharing meeting for the students, where we shared our opinions on the film. A freshman said that everyone can earn the respect of others if they have the courage to rely on themselves.
The students took an active part in this popular activity. The principal spoke highly of the event and also praised the enthusiasm of the students. Our students are looking forward to more such events.
Best regards,

文章标题：More fathers are taking paternity leave, but mothers are still doing all the work
【答案速查】：36-40 DJOBF 41-45 ICLEH
题干、答案和定位处↓
36. In the absence of Federal legislation, some states in the US have passed laws concerning paidfamily leave.
【答案】 D【定位】The US is one of only three countries in the world not to offer statutory (法定的) paid leave, but increasingly states and companies are starting to take up the issue. So far, eight states and the District of Columbia have their own paid family leave laws.
37. Most fathers admitted that even during their paternity leave they actually did much less childcare than the mother.
【答案】J【定位】 While about 75% of employees said both genders should give the same amount of care, the majority of men and nearly half of women admitted that in reality the female actually did most of it. A tiny fraction, 2%, of men said they did more of the childcare.
38. According to one father, equal parental leave is indispensable to achieving gender equality in the workplace.
【答案】O【定位】The father of two from Columbus, Ohio, who still works at the company as an associate and investigator, said he has witnessed a “domino effect (多米诺效应)”across companies since the settlement, but that there is still substantial progress to be made towards changing attitudes towards paternity leave.
39.One survey indicated there is now less objection to paternity leave.
【答案】B【定位】Research by the Boston College Center for Work & Family, which surveyed new parents at four large US companies who were qualified for taking at least six weeks paid parental leave, found that 81% of the 1,240 employees surveyed said the notion of fathers taking leave has become more acceptable.
40.Compared to five years ago, according to one researcher, many more people said their organisation gave the same support to men and women taking parental leave.
【答案】F【定位】 “We did a study on paternity leave five years ago. Compared with those findings, these numbers were shocking to me. I did not expect 80% of people to say the organisation finds dads taking this leave acceptable and three-quarters to say it's equally supportive of women and men taking leave," Harrington said.
41.One study finds that even workers who claim to desire gender equality stick to traditional gender roles both at work and at home.
【答案】I【定位】However, the study also shows how traditional gender roles endure both at work, where more women than men reported changes in their perceived career potential, and at home - even among workers who claim to have a strong desire for equality.
42.The majority of workers surveyed said parental leave policies had improved workplace culture.
【答案】C【定位】Of those surveyed, 62% of fathers took the maximum amount of time off compared to 93% of mothers, and around three-quarters of workers said their employer was equally supportive of mothers and fathers taking parental leave and over half said leave policies had made workplace culture better.
43. In spite of progress, the number of women in top positions of big companies remains extremely small.
【答案】L【定位】Despite progress, the struggle for women to reach the highest positions of power is demonstrated in this year's Fortune 500 list, which featured a record 33 female CEOs, but this still represents a tiny fraction of the total.
44. According to one estimate, less than one third of companies in the US provide paid parental leave.
【答案】E【定位】第一句：Brad Harrington,executive director of the center and lead author of the study, estimates only 20% to 30% of companies in the US offer paid parental leave.
45. A number of lawsuits have pressured companies to formulate gender neutral policies on parental leave.
【答案】H【定位】Since then, there have been a number of legal cases against companies involving paternity leave - including cases against JPMorgan Chase and Estée Lauder - which have helped put pressure on companies to make their parental leave policies gender neutral.

文章标题：Teenagers and social networking
【答案速查】：36-40 CLHAM 41-45 EIBJG
题干、答案和定位处↓
36. Research has found the use of digital technology benefits not only teenagers’ social lives but also their studies.
C 【定位】Indeed, social scientists who study young people have found that their digital use can be inventive and even beneficial. This is true not just in terms of their social lives, but their education too.
37. It is urgent that schools teach kids how to verify online information.
L【定位】And studies show that pupils don't fact-check information online - “smart searching is a skill schools need to teach urgently.
38. Students now write longer and more complex essays than their counterparts in previous decades while the error rates remain unchanged.
H【定位】But even as error rates stayed stable, student essays have blossomed in size and complexity.
39. Newspaper reports of teenagers give a false picture of their behaviour.
A 【定位】 Newspapers are constantly filled with frightening accounts of drug addiction and aggressive behaviour supposedly caused by violent videogames. But even when these accounts touch on real concerns, they do not really reflect the great mass of everyday teenage social behaviour:
40. Parents are advised to mind their own digital behaviour and set a good example for their kids.
M 【定位】Parents who stare non-stop at their phones and don't read books are likely to breed kids who will do the same. As ever, we ought to be careful about our own behaviour.
41. Contrary to parents’ belief, kids try hard to leave as few traces as possible on the web.
E 【定位】Parents are wrong to worry that kids don't care about privacy. In fact, they spend hours changing Facebook settings or using quick-delete sharing tools, such as Snapchat, to minimise their traces.
42. Students’ ability to learn formal writing is unlikely to be affected by texting.
I【定位】Clearly, teaching teens formal writing is still crucial, but texting probably isn’t destroying their ability to learn it.
43. Historically, new technologies have always caused great fears among parents.
B 【定位】New technologies always provoke generational panic, which usually has more to do with adult fears than with the live of teenagers.
44. The reading culture was seriously affected by cable television some four decades ago.
J 【定位】But even back then, a minority of people-perhaps 20% - were lifelong heavy readers, and it was cable TV, not the internet, that struck a blow at that culture in the 1980s.
45. Teachers say that kids’ writing is too casual, using language characteristic of text messages.
G 【定位】Certainly, teachers worry. They say that kids use overly casual language and text-speak in writing, and don't have as much patience for long reading and complex arguments.
