Eating Meat-Less or More? Every second in the United States alone,more than 250 animals are slaughtered for food,adding up to more than 8 billion animals each year.Reducing the amount of meat in one's diet is nutritionally, environmentally,and ethically beneficial, People who eat meat usually have weaker immune systems compared to those of vegetarians.Meat has been directly linked to diabetes,obesity,arthritis,and many other illnesses.Furthermore,meat-eaters are at a higher risk for diseases,including cancer,and they are more likely to die from these diseases.Critics say that a meatless diet does not provide enough nutrients,especially protein and iron.Actually,according to A Teen’s Guide to Going Vegetarian,by Judy Krizmanic,proteil1 is found in almost every food,and iron appears in many vegetables.Getting enough nutrients in a meat-reduced diet should not be difficult.A 1988 study found that some of the highest pesticide residues appear in meat and eggs.Diets including more fruits and vegetables will only make people healthier. Some skeptics believe that there will be a shortage of food if animals are not eaten.In fact,the opposite is true.More than 80% of the corn and 95% of the oats grown in the U.S.are fed to livestock.The world's cattle alone consume enough food to equal the caloric needs of 8.7 billion people,more than the entire human population.One half of the water used in the Unites States also goes to livestock;250 gallons of water produces only 1 lb.（磅）of beef.If people eat less meat and more plants,the amount of available food will increase。 Many people become vegetarians because they feel that eating animals is unethical.90% of these animals are raised in confinement.Chickens and other birds have only about half a square foot of space each,and since they are raised so close together,a lot of blade is used to cut off their beaks to prevent them from pecking each other to death.Likewise,pigs that are repressed will bite each other's tails,so both their teeth and tails are removed as soon as they are born. Eating animals is hazardous in numerous ways.Even a slight reduction in meat intake is better than nothing at all.Consuming less meat is beneficial to the health of animals,the health of people,and to the health of the world.

What is the attitude the author has toward eating meat?
A:Positive.
B:Negative.
C:Indifferent.
D:None of the above.

Time is very important in our lives.It organizes our everyday moments.However,time never had any importance in my life until I received a watch from my father that organized my life and made me more responsible.
It came from Denmark to the U.A.E.jewelry shop in a gray box.It weighs 0.24 kilograms. It's round in the center with two silver bands that go around my wrist.And all of it is made of silver. This object tells me the importance of time in my life.
I received this gift on a gray-sky day.I had to go to the airport at 9:00 AM to pick up my uncle Aui and take him to my father's house.However,I was late because I was hanging out with my friends.Later on that day,around 11:00 AM,I remembered my uncle,but I was very late for him. He had left the airport and taken a taxi to my father's house.
I got to my father's house at 2:00 PM on the same day and looked at my angry father's face.I felt ashamed of myself at that moment.After I said hi to my angry father and tired uncle,my father asked me to sit next to him where he handed me this watch which was a gift from him.Then he said,"Essa,did you have fun with your friends today?"I answered, "Yes,father,and I'm sorry about not picking up my uncle Ali."He said,"What you did was not very nice and you should be sorry for your actions."I was ashamed and said,"Father,I'll never do it again.I promise."He said,"I hope today you learned something important,and this watch will be a reminder for you." He told me to take this watch and use it as an organizer of my life.
I learned a very important lesson from my father:to respect time and never be late to get someone.This watch is important to me,not because of its price,but because of the lesson that I learned from it.

Time was not so important in my life and I was not a very responsible person before I received a watch from my father.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned

Knitting

My mother knew how to knit（编织）,but she never taught me.She assumed,as did
many women of her generation,that knitting was no longer a skill worth passing down from
mother to daughter.A combination of feminism（女权主义）and consumerism（消费主义）
made many women feel that such homely accomplishments were now out of date.My
Grandmother still knitted,though,and every Christmas she made a pair of socks for my
brother and me, of red wool（毛线）.They were the ones we wore under our ice skates
（冰鞋）,when it was really important to have warm feet.
Knitting is a nervous habit that happens to be productive.It helped me quit smoking by
giving my hands something else to do.It is wonderful for depression because no matter
what else happens,you are creating something beautiful.Time spent in front of the
television or just sitting is no longer time wasted.
I love breathing life into the patterns.It's true magic,finding a neglected,dog-eared
（翻旧了的）old book with the perfect snowflake design,buying the same Germantown wool
my grandmother used,in the exact blue to match my daughter's eyes,taking it on the train
with me every day for two months,working enthusiastically to get it done by Christmas,
staying up late after the stockings are filled to sew in the sleeves and weave in the ends.
Knitting has taught me patience.I know that if I just keep going,even if it takes
months,there will be a reward.When I make a mistake,I know that anger will not fix it,
and that I just have to go back and start over again.
People often ask if I would do it for money,and the answer is always a definite no.In
the first place,you could not pay me enough for the hours I put into a sweater.But more
important,this is an activity I keep separate from such considerations.I knit to cover my
children and other people I love in warmth and color.I knit to give them something earthly
that money could never buy:
Knitting gives my life an alternative rhythm to the daily deadline.By day I can write
about Northern Ireland or the New York City Police Department and get paid for it,but on
the train home,surrounded by people with laptops,I stage my little rebellion.I take out my
old knitting bag and join the centuries of women who have knitted for love.

According to the passage,which of the following statements is NOT true?
A:Knitting helps one get rid of bad habits.
B:Knitting helps one get free from a bad mood.
C:Knitting requires patience.
D:Knitting is a profit-making business.

I've loved my mother's desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as mother sat writing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the more wonderful thing in the world. Years later, during her final illness, mother kept different things for my sister and brother."But the desk," she'd said again, "it's for Elizaheth."
I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in acdou. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened.And a gulf opened between us. I was "too emotional". But she lived "on the surface".
As years passed I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she ebose that she did forgive me. I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came. My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace-it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn't be sure that the letter had even got to mother. I only knew that I had written it, and l could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.
Now the present of her desk told, as she'd never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside--a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded and refolded many times. Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.

Food Poisoning

Food sometimes gets poisoned with harmful things,A person who eats such food can get an illness called

Meat needs to be cooked thoroughly to kill any dangerous microorganisms. People should also wash food covered
with chemicals before eating it.Finally,people should not eat wild mushrooms or other foods that grow in the
wild.Some of these foods may contain natural materials that are poisonous to humans.In addition,some types
of fish can be poisonous.
