Paragraph 1: Scientists have learned a lot about the kinds of food people need. They say that there are several kinds of food that people should eat every day. They are: (1) green and yellow vegetables of all kinds; (2) citrus(柑桔) fruits and tomatoes; (3) potatoes and other fruits and vegetables; (4) meat of all kinds, fish and eggs; (5) milk and foods made from milk; (6) bread or cereal(谷物), rice is also in this kind of food; (7) butter, or something like butter.
Paragraph 2: People in different places of the world eat different kinds of things. Foods are cooked and eaten in many different kinds of ways. People in different countries eat at different times of the day. In some places people eat once or twice a day; in other countries people eat three or four times. Scientists say that none of the differences is really important. It doesn’t matter whether foods are eaten raw or cooked. It doesn’t matter if a person eats dinner at 4 o’clock in the afternoon or at 11 o’clock at night. The important thing is what you eat every day.

A young man from a village called Nawalapitiya married a young woman from Maiyuwa, a small village. They lived with the man’s big family－his parents, his brothers, their wives and husbands and children. The family kept an elephant, in which the woman soon took a great interest.

“You speak very good English”
The other day I heard an American say to a Chinese student of English. “You 41 very good English.” But the student answered, “ No, my English is very poor.” The foreigner was quite
42 at the answer. Thinking he had not made himself 43 or the student had not heard him clearly, he said, “Yes, indeed, you speak it very well.” But the Chinese student still 44 saying “No”. 45 the foreigner gave up and didn’t know what to say.
What’s wrong with the student’s answer? It is because he didn’t accept a compliment as the American people 46 . He should have said “Thank you” instead of “No”. He actually understood what the American had said. But he thought he should be modest. If someone says to a woman, “ You look 47 beautiful with the new clothes 48 .” she should be very happy and answer, “Thank you.” In our country we think 49 modest is a virtue and showing off is a bad behavior. But in the West, if you are modest and say, “ No, 50 I can’t do it well,” then the others will take it for granted (理所当然)that you 51 can not do it. If you often say,“No”, you will certainly be looked down upon by 52 . When 53 for a job, if one says something like “Yes, I can certainly do it” instead of “ Let me have a try on the job”, he or she can expect to get it. So in the West, one should always be confident. 54 self-confidence, he can’t go anywhere. Confidence is of great 55 to one in a country where competition is quite keen.(激烈)
