A walk in a farmers’ market often brings one to explore new food options, and now more locally-farmed protein (蛋白質(zhì)) choices are available to help bridge the gap between our meals and the farms on which they grew. More and more local small farms are popping up in opposition to factory farms.
Today’s commercial farms do not fit the image that comes to mind while happily singing along to "Old McDonald." Instead, most of the nation’s food comes from CAFOs – Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations – where animals are kept in tightly enclosed conditions as they are fattened up and readied to be killed for food.
Fortunately, knowing exactly where one’s food comes from has led to an increase in the availability of what is known as "grass-fed" beef. Technically, all cattle are grass-fed for at least a limited amount of time, but what makes the meat significant is that it is grass-finished, not force-fed corn, soy or grains. This change in diet makes all the difference since corn is not part of the cow’s traditional diet, and therefore causes major health issues for it. To deal with the health issues, antibiotics (抗生素) are used and some of the antibiotics used to treat the cattle are similar to those given to humans, so they can decrease the effectiveness of medicine when a consumer is sick.
A healthier diet for the cattle leads the meat to lower in both fat and calories. And when cooking grass-fed beef, you’d better use a slightly lower temperature to make it more delicious.
12.The underlined words popping up (1st Para.) probably means __________ .
A. improving B. appearing C. profiting D. fading
13.The song "Old McDonald" describes__________ .
A. commercial farms providing fast food
B. commercial farms providing unpopular foods
C. animals raised freely on local farms
D. animals kept in tightly enclosed conditions
14.Some medicines are less effective for beef consumers probably because__________ .
A. some cattle feed on grains
B. all cattle eat grass
C. some antibiotics are used by both cattle and people
D. some medicines are used to treat sick cattle
15.We can infer from the text that_________ .
A. food from local farms can help add to the variety in our daily meals
B. soy or grains are on the list of traditional diets of the cattle
C. corn for the cattle leads the meat to lower in both fat and calories
D. low temperature makes grass-fed beef more delicious
答案 12. B 13. C 14. C 15. A

"Wake up. Alicia is waiting for you outside," my mother called from the kitchen. My mother didn’t like me going to my friend’s house in the mountains for this weekend. "I trust you, but I don’t trust the people there," she said seriously. "I’m going to be fine," were my last words before closing the door of the Jeep. The vehicle went along the dusty road and my mother grew smaller in the distance.
The trip over the rough road was uncomfortable. It was scary to climb the steep hills surrounded by great pines. After a long trip we finally arrived at the house. From the moment I got there I knew I would forever love the house. It was decorated like an old country home. My room was small, yet set up nicely. That night I went to sleep early, not because I didn’t want to continue my search, but because I was tired after the long trip.
In the morning, the singing of the birds woke me up. The light was just getting through the window. A strong smell of baking and fresh coffee came from the kitchen. I wandered around looking for a living soul, but the house was empty. I had the whole day to myself; my friend had gone hiking. I didn’t want to go with her. The main reason for this trip was to spend some time alone thinking about the events happening in my life.
After an icy shower, my energies were at their fullest. With basket in hand, I started my hunt. I did not mind walking alone; it was a wonderful feeling to be in contact with nature for the first time. The sound of the water running through the rocks gave me great peace. I never felt such independence in my soul before.
9. According to the first paragraph, we can know that .
A. the author took a cold attitude towards her mother
B. the author had an argument with her mother
C. the author preferred to live in the mountains
D. the author’s mother was worried about her safety
10. The purpose of the trip for the author is to .
A. enjoy the quiet and beautiful nature
B. continue her search for special things
C. give herself a chance to think alone
D. go hiking in the mountains with her friend
11. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Her close friend. B. The peaceful life.
C. A favorite trip. D. The distant village.
答案9. D 10. C 11. C
