Although science has made big steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of human illness is related to food and forty percent of cancer is related to food as well. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, some researchers realized that things used to keep colors in meats and other food additives(添加剂) caused cancer. Yet, these additives remain in our food, and it is difficult to know which things on the wrappings of foods are helpful or harmful. The additives which we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin（青霉素） to their animals, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of cows. Sometimes similar things are supplied to animals not for their health, but just to make a profit.The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to get a higher price on the market. Although some countries have tried to control such things, the practice continues.16.According to this passage, we can know .A. perhaps most of human illness is caused by what we eatB. perhaps most kinds of cancer are related to what people eatC. cancer was discovered in 1945D. science has made food unfit to eat17. Things that are used to keep colors in meats are .A. harmfulB. uselessC. helplessD. dangerous18. All the additives _.A. are bright and colorlessB. are not bright and colorfulC. have indirect effects on our healthD. have direct effects on our health19.People use additives _.A. to make food more unfit to eat B. to change the color of the food C. to improve the color and taste of the food D. to take off the diseases of the food BMany psychologists in the early twentieth century believed that humans use only 10 percent of their brains, and even the great Albert Einstein once wrote that most people use only a small portion of the grey matter between their ears. It's a theory that has often been put forward in television documentaries; magazines, advertisements and books over the past century.But nearly all scientists now agree the 10 percent theory is completely unfounded. In fact, they question how this figure was ever arrived at in the first place and what areas of the brain are supposed to be unneeded. The theory supposes that if 90 percent of the brain were removed, a person would still be able to function normally, while in reality it is known that damage to even a small area of the brain can result in extremely serious physical injury different activities and that many areas of the brain are used at the same time for some complex activities or thought processes.Throughout the course of one day, most areas of the brain are active at some time, even during sleep. The 10 percent theory suggests that certain areas of the brain are not used, but scans show activities throughout the entire brain and not in any separate part. The final argument against the 10 percent theory is the fact that doctors carefully map the brain before removing brain cancers so that they don't affect other essential areas.From an evolutionary（进化的） point of view, it's highly unlikely that our comparatively larger brains would have evolved from our ancestors if the extra areas were not needed. In fact, there is absolutely no evidence support the 10 percent theory.20. How did the 10 percent theory get such widespread popularity?A. It was promoted in various types of popular media.B. Albert Einstein argued strongly in support.C. It was proven in scientific research.D. Few people could prove it wrong.21. The underlined word “unfounded“ means _.A. undiscovered B. unproven C. unknown D. unnecessary22. Which of the following is true according to the writer?A. We use less than 10% of our brains.B. Most brain disorders affect the same part of the brain.C. The brain is less active during times of sleep.D. The 10 percent theory does not make evolutionary sense.23. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To present two sides of brain theory. B. To criticize the 10 percent theory.C. To explain how brain works. D. To describe the history of brain research.CJean-Michael Lourdis was a promising young pianist. But when the young man played, it seemed to him, as if his hands were iron. He worried so much about his playing that he became oversensitive（过分敏感的） to the comments of his playing. Unfortunately, in those days, a critic was not considered a critic, unless he found something wrong.
