Most drinks stating that they are fruitflavored (水果味道的) contain no fruit at all, while most
of the rest contain only a small quantity of fruit, according to a study carried by the British Food
Commission.
"Shoppers need to check the labels (标签) before buying drinks, though sometimes the actual
content can be nonexistent," said Food Commission spokesperson Ian Tokelove. "Food production
is highly competitive. __1__ It will increase profits, and consumers won"t always realize they are
being tricked."
Flavorings are focused on the flavors of natural food products such as fruits, meats and vegetables,
or creating flavor for food products that do not have the desired flavors. Researchers analyzed the
contents of 28 strawberryflavored products sold in stores. __2__ Of the 11 products that did
contain strawberries, five of them contained less than one percent real fruit. In addition, each juice
box contained nearly eight teaspoons of sugar.
__3__ Let"s take jam as an example. Some strawberryflavored jam was labeled as containing
no artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners, but it contained absolutely no strawberries at all.
__4__ Consumers have the rights to know clearly about what they have bought. Under current
UK law, food packages do not have to distinguish between natural and artificial flavoring. "Describing
a product as strawberry flavor and covering the surface of the packet with pictures of strawberries is
misleading. __5__ Unfortunately, it is also legal and widespread," Tokelove said. "It"s time to take
measures to protect the consumers" rights."
B. Even products advertised as more natural often contained no fruit.
C. They found that about 60 percent of them didn"t contain any fruit at all.
D. If companies can cut their costs by using flavoring, they are likely to do so.
E. It is important and necessary to demand a small amount of flavoring in the products.
F. Actually the product contains just a tiny percentage of strawberry or even no fruit at all.
G. The Food Commission suggested all flavors used in a product should be listed on the packaging.

heated discussions in the media,but also caught the attention of the central government in Beijing.
On December 26, a spokesman of the Miriistry of Health stressed that the Ministry was firmly
against doctors" moonlighting, while strict regulations should be applied to doctors taking part-time jobs,
the Xinhua News Agency reported.
Last year,the Ministry sent out a notice to a variety of health organizations to speed up the reform of
their personnel (人事)system. According to the notice, medical organizations can hire medical experts
as part-time doctors but such activities should take place under the hospital"s management and
regulations (规定) .
As for moonlighting-meaning that the doctor provides medical service without the permission of the
original hospital-such activity goes against China"s Practicing Doctor Law, Xinhua reported.
In China, doctors used to be controlled by hospitals and they could work for only one hospital.
However, as China"s medical personnel system reform developed, it has been recognized that medical
human resources, just like human resources in other areas, should be shared by the whole society. But
on the other hand, doctors" taking part-time jobs should follow the relative regulations applied in the
medical field.
First of all, they should follow relative government laws and regulations. They should also follow the
rules and regulations set by the medical organizations they work for. In addition, they should pay taxes
for their income from the part-time jobs. What matters most is that they should first finish their regular
jobs as required and be responsible for patients to ensure qualified and safe medical treatment.
B. Doctors pay fewer taxes for the money made by moonlighting than by taking part-time jobs.
C. Taking part-time jobs is permitted by hospitals while moonlighting is against the present regulations.
D. Doctor"s part-time jobs, instead of moonlighting, are encouraged by health organizations.
B. work for more than one hospital
C. work any time when they are free
D. be out of control of hospitals
B. regulations made by health organizations
C. China"s Practicing Doctor Law
D. a magazine or a newspaper
B. moonlighting has been permitted by China"s Practicing Doctor Law
C. taxes should be paid for the money doctors get from their part-time jobs
D. strict management policies have been adopted to direct the moonlighting
information on the Web about job opportunities (机会). With all the information available, it"s not
surprising that people can feel confused. So if you"re ready to start your first job or change careers,
where do you begin?

| Moving at any time of a year is difficult, but if you have a flexible schedule and are not on a specific timeline, there are several factors to consider when deciding when to move. Keep in mind that these factors could also be part of a negotiation deal with your employer if you are being relocated or if starting a new position. If you have children at home, it is best to work around the school calendar. Summer is an ideal time, as children have completed another grade and have said their goodbyes to school friends. Planning to move directly following the end of school, however, does not give your children time to adapt to the idea of moving, to say goodbye to neighborhood friends and their home. When setting the date, allow a few weeks at the new destination for children to unpack and meet new neighborhood friends. They will be better prepared for the school year if they have time to make their new house their home. Too much change can be detrimental to performance and emotional wellbeing. What works best for your children also works best for you. As part of the settling in process, take a few days for you and your children to check out the new school, meet some teachers and find appropriate transportation. Both you and your children will be better prepared, leading to a smoother transition. When possible, avoid moving before major holidays, such as Christmas, since part of such holidays is being with family and friends. Birthdays, and other family events can also be difficult. Give yourself enough time in your new place before the holiday season begins to meet new people and feel a sense of community. Better yet, save your move for immediately following a holiday. Holidays provide a perfect opportunity for goodbyes and final gettogethers. Most people would agree that summer is the best time to move. Children are out of school, the weather is almost guaranteed to be perfect and friends are available to help. If this is your ideal time to move, make sure you check moving company schedules and rates before confirming your move date. Most companies have peak times and will charge higher rates accordingly. Also, if you are planning to move at peak times, you will need to be better organized to ensure that a moving company or a moving truck is available for the date and times you require. Keep in mind that the level of the service often changes between the summer months, when students replace fulltime experienced movers, and offseason. As much as summer could cost you more, winter, as common sense indicates, is also not an ideal time to move. Travel is difficult, both for you and your family, along with the moving company. Items kept overnight in a truck under freezing conditions may result in damaged goods. If you are moving from one climate to another, water damage may occur when the mode of transport that is moving your household items travels from a cold environment to a warmer climate. Freezing and thawing cause the most damage if items are not properly sealed. 1. According to the passage, before moving children usually ________. A. meet new neighborhood friends B. pack their package C. say goodbye to neighborhood friends D. complete their grades 2. What is the disadvantage of moving in summer? A. The weather. B. Moving company schedules. C. The changeable level of the service. D. Without friends" help. 3. According to the passage, when is the best time to move? A. Winter. B. Vacations. C. Major holidays. D. Summer. | |

| Sometimes you"ll hear people say that you can"t love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you"ll hear people say that you can"t expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you"ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we"re the apple of our parents" eyes, and that our Grandmas think we"re great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics. But sometimes it"s a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge. It is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself. Self-image is your own mind"s picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world. The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don"t allow doubts to occur in it. It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can"t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you"re silly because you aren"t good at math, find a tutor. If you think you"re weak because you can"t run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you"re dull because you don"t wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, just because you think it doesn"t mean it"s true. The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat(拍) yourself on the back, you"ll know you"re well on your way. Good luck! 1. You need to build a positive self-image when you _________. A. dare to challenge yourself B. feel it hard to change yourself C. are unconfident about yourself D. have a high opinion of yourself 2. How should you change your self-image according to the passage? A. To keep a different image of others. B. To make your life successful. C. To understand your own world. D. To change the way you think. 3. What is the passage mainly about? A. How to prepare for your success. B. How to face challenges in your life. C. How to build a positive self-image. D. How to develop your good qualities. 4. Who are the intended readers of the passage? A. Parents. B. Adolescents. C. Educators. D. People in general. |
