| Baths and bathing have long been considered of medical importance to man. In Greece there are the ruins of a water system for baths built over 3,000 years ago. The Romans had warm public baths. In some baths, as many 3,000 persons could bathe at the same time. Treating disease by taking bathing has been popular for centuries. Modern medical bathing first became popular in Europe and by the late 1700"s has also become popular in the United States. For many years frequent(经常的) bathing was believed to be bad for one"s health. Ordinary bathing just to keep clean was avoided, and perfume was often used to cover up body smells! By the 1700"s doctors began to say that soap and water were good for health. They believed that it was good for people to be clean. Slowly, people began to bathe more frequently. During the Victorian Age of the late 19th century, taking a bath on Saturday night became common. In the United States ordinary bathing was slow to become popular. During the 18th and early 19th centuries, many Americans were know as "The Great Unwashed!" In one American city , for example, a person was only allowed to take a bathe every thirty days! That was a law! Frequency of bathing today is partly a matter of habit. People know that bathing for cleanliness is important to health, Doctors know that dirty bodies increase the chance of diseases. As a result, in the United States, people generally bathe often. Some people bath once a day at least. They consider a daily bath essential (=necessary) to good health. | |||

| As a kid, I can remember going to the supermarket and grabbing eggs off the shelf. I would run them home to my mother because they were usually going into a delicious cake. Times have changed. Cagefree? Organic? Brown? White? Omega3s? Help! Here are some tips to help you figure out which eggs you should choose: ●Brown or white? In fact, color is simply a sign of the breed of hen. Find the freshest egg with the most flavor and let color be a secondary concern. ●Extra Omega3s? Omega3 eggs come from a hen whose diet has added flaxseed(亚麻籽) ,which produces an egg containing an average of 225 mg of Omega3 fatty acids and Vitamin E. The countless health benefits for humans make these eggs an attractive purchase. My opinion? Eat a piece of fresh fish and get a pure dose of Omega3s. Let eggs be eggs. ●Does your egg need exercise? Freerange eggs are from hens raised without the confines of a cage, though they may or may not have spent much time outdoors. Organic eggs are from hens whose feed must meet organic standards. These hens must be raised humanely, and they must be given time to stay outdoors. Hey, happier hens do lay tastier eggs. ●Does local make a difference? Nothing is better than local eggs. They may have a feather or two stuck to them or be a little imperfect shape and they may or may not be certified (证明) organic; however, they have one quality I prize: I know exactly where my food came from and how it came to be! In some cases I can even ask the farmer when the eggs were laid and what the hens were fed. | |||
| 1. What does the author think of Omega3 eggs? | |||
| A. They are a good choice for people to purchase. B. They contain fewer Omega3s than fresh fish. C. They have the highest content of pure Omega3s. D. They are not the best source of Omega3s. | |||
| 2.The underlined part "Freerange" probably means"______". | |||
| A. wild B. organic C. special D. Omega3free | |||
| 3. According to the passage, which of the following has nothing to do with an egg"s quality? | |||
| A. The egg"s color. B. The hen"s exercise. C. The hen"s living conditions. D. The hen"s food. | |||
| 4. This passage is most probably taken from a book named________. | |||
| A. Shopping Skills B. Eggs and Cooking C. Raising Hens D. Healthy Diet | |||

| It is true that good writers rewrite and rewrite and then rewrite some more. But in order to work up the desire to rewrite, it is important to learn to like what you write at the early stage. I am surprised at the number of famous writers I know who say that they so dislike reading their own writing later that they even hate to look over the publishers" opinions. One reason we may dislike reading our own work is that we"re often disappointed that the rich ideas in our minds seem very thin and plain when first written down. Jerry Fodor and Steven Pinker suggest that this fact may be a result of how our minds work. Different from popular belief, we do not usually think in the words and sentences of ordinary language but in symbols for ideas (known as"mentalese"),and writing our ideas down is an act of translation from that symbolic language. But while mentalese contains our thoughts in the form of a complex tapestry (织锦),writing can only be composed one thread at a time. Therefore it should not be surprising that our first attempt at expressing ideas should look so simple. It is only by repeatedly rewriting that we produce new threads and connect them to get closer to the ideas formed in our minds. When people write as if some strict critics (批评家) are looking over their shoulder, they are so worried about what this critic might say that they get stuck before they even start. Peter Elbow makes an excellent suggestion to deal with this problem. When writing we should have two different minds. At the first stage, we should see every idea, as well as the words we use to express it, as wonderful and worth putting down. It is only during rewrites that we should examine what we excitedly wrote in the first stage and check for weaknesses. | |||
| 1. What do we learn from the text about those famous writers? | |||
| A. They often regret writing poor works. B. Some of them write surprisingly much. C. Many of them hate reading their own works. D. They are happy to review the publishers" opinions. | |||
| 2. What do people generally believe about the way human minds work? | |||
| A. People think in words and sentences. B. Human ideas are translated into symbols. C. People think by connecting threads of ideas. D. Human thoughts are expressed through pictures. | |||
| 3. What can we conclude from the text? | |||
| A. Most people believe we think in symbols. B. Loving our own writing is scientifically reasonable. C. The writers and critics can never reach an agreement. D. Thinking and writing are different stages of mind at work. | |||
