11.In 1857 Louis Pasteur accepted a position at the Ecole Normale Superieure,a prestigious school in Paris.There,he continued the research on fermentation(发酵) that he had started earlier.
Ultimately,his research led to the process of pasteurization(巴斯德氏杀菌法),which uses heat to kill harmful germs in a variety of food products.Later,Pasteur took on industry-related cases such as a disease affecting the silk industry.Beginning in 1865,Pasteur spent three years investigating the bacteria that were the culprits and developing ways to prevent their spread.
In 1866Pasteur lost two daughters to typhoid(伤寒)fever.Two years later he became partially paralyzed(瘫痪)as a result of grief and stress.But despite these difficulties,Pasteur pressed on to even greater accomplishments.
In the late 1870s,Pasteur began research in the emerging scientific field of immunization and developed a vaccine(疫苗) for the deadly disease rabies.Following this success,the Pasteur Institute was founded to support Pasteur's work.Pasteur headed the institute until his death in 1895.Since then,the institute has continued to grow.Today,the institute's headquarters in Paris contain over 130laboratories along with extensive teaching facilities and the institute's own medical center.Over the years,the institute has also extended through the establishment of around thirty research centers in other countries.At each one,researchers help local authorities monitor public health and provide medical treatment.
Unlike many research organizations,the Pasteur Institute is not government funded.Instead it relies on financial gifts that it receives from institutions and ordinary people.This insures the institute's independence and enables it to respond quickly when health needs arise.

B.Designing products that people would buy.
C.Using his fortune to enjoy life in France.

12.Eating different colored foods can keep you healthy,as well as change your mood and behavior.Here is a list of colors,which can change your life.
Blue/Purple
Blue is considered to be peaceful and calming and it has the same effect on our health.The blue/purple color in food is due primarily to their anthocyanins which are antioxidants (抗氧化剂) that are particularly heart healthy and may help support healthy blood pressure.Out of all the blue and purple foods available,blueberries are considered to have the highest antioxidant level.An analysis of the latest data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Study found that people who eat purple and blue fruits and vegetables are at a reduced risk for high blood pressure and are less likely to be overweight.
A food and health expert says that blue and purple color foods can prevent blood mass formation,and they also lower the risk of cancer.
Foods that contain blue and purple colors are:reddish eggplant (especially the skin),blueberries,blackberries,purple grapes,etc.
Green
We all know that we should eat green as green symbolizes nature.The green foods are rich in isothiocyanates,which help resist cancer.
Dr.Ashok Agarwal,a food and nutrition specialist,explains,"They are excellent sources of folic acid,vitamin K,as well as carotene (胡萝卜素).Diets high in those above are associated with lowered blood pressure."
Foods that contain the green color are:broccoli,cabbage,cucumbers,etc.
Red
Lycopene (番茄红素) in reddish fruits and vegetables is a powerful antioxidant that has been associated with a reduced risk of some cancers,and also provides protection against heart attacks.
Dr.Smiths says,"Cooked tomato sauces are associated with greater health benefits as compared with the uncooked version as the heating process allows lycopene to be more easily absorbed by the body.Obtaining the most benefit from food depends on proper selection,storage and cooking of the produce."
Foods that contain red color are:Tomatoes and tomato products,watermelon,guava,red onions,red chili,red apples,red grapes,cherries,etc.
Orange
The orange foods are also rich in carotene,which are particularly good antioxidants.These foods are commonly considered eyesight foods because they contain vitamin A.
"Orange fruits and vegetables also play a part in preventing cancer,particularly of the lungs and stomach.Foods that contain the color orange are:Carrots,mangoes,sweet potatoes,pumpkins,etc.

56.The passage tries to tell us thatB.
A.colors mean a lot to people and their health
B.foods of different colors will have different benefits
C.eating foods with a color must prevent diseases

A.lowering blood pressure               B.improving eyesight
C.preventing cancer                     D.reducing the risk of heart disease
58.Which color can help keep us thin according to the passage?A
A.Purple.  B.Green.  C.Red.  D.Orange.
59.The green and orange foods are both rich inC.
A.vitamin A       B.folic acid          C.carotene            D.vitamin K

Companies located in places with happier people invest more,according to a recent research paper.(52)B,firms in happy places spend more on R&D,which stands for research and development.That's because happiness is linked to the kind of longer-term thinking(53)Dfor making investments for the future.

11.Although they are an inexpensive supplier of vitamins,minerals,and high-quality protein,eggs also contain a high level of blood cholesterol(胆固醇),one of the major causes of heart disease.One egg yolk,in fact,contains a little more than two-thirds of the suggested daily cholesterol limit.
    This knowledge has caused egg sales to drop in recent years,which in turn has brought about the development of several alternatives to eating regular eggs.One alternative is to eat substitute eggs.These egg substitutes are not real eggs,but they look somewhat like eggs when they are cooked.They have the advantage of having lower cholesterol rates,and they can be scrambled or used in baking.One disadvantage,however,is that they are not good for frying,poaching,or boiling.A second alternative to regular eggs is a new type of eggs,sometimes called"designer''eggs.These eggs are  produced by hens that are fed low-fat diets consisting of ingredients such as canola oil,flax,and rice bran.In spite of their diets,however,these hens produce eggs that contain  the same amount of cholesterol as regular eggs.Yet,producers of these eggs claim that eating their eggs will not raise the blood cholesterol in humans.
    Egg producers claim that their product has been described unfairly.They use scientific studies to back up their claim.And  in tact  studies on the relationship between eggs and human cholesterol levels have brought mixed results.It may be that it is not the type of egg that is the main determinant of cholesterol but the person who is eating the eggs.Some people may be more sensitive to cholesterol from food than other people.In fact,there is evidence that certain dietary fats stimulate the body's production of blood cholesterol.Consequently,while it still makes sense to limit one's intake of eggs,even designer eggs,it seems that doing this without regulating dietary fat will probably not help reduce the blood cholesterol level.
46.According to this passage,which of the following is a cause of heart disease?B
A.High-quality protein   
B.Cholesterol
C.Canola oil            
D.Minerals
47.The main cause of the recent drop in egg sales isD.
A.the production of substitute eggs and designer eggs
B.the changes in hen's diet
C.the increasing price
D.People's knowledge of the high level of blood cholesterol in eggs
48.Which is the best way to cook substitute eggs?B
A.Boiling.    B.Baking.    C.Frying.D.Poaching.
49.What's the main purpose of this passage?C
A.To advertise for substitute eggs.
B.To warn people of the danger of heart disease by eating eggs.
C.To inform people of the relationship between eggs and cholesterol.
D.To tell people that fat intake is more dangerous than egg intake.
50.Which of the following statements is NOT true?C
A.It has been proved that some dietary fats stimulate the body's production of blood cholesterol.
B.Some people are insensitive to cholesterol from food.
C.It is the type of egg that determines the level of cholesterol in one's body.
D.Controlling one's intake of eggs and dietary fat is likely to reduce blood cholesterol.
