A
Durga and Amiko became best friends shortly after Durga's family moved to Texas from India.
Amiko, who was Japanese American, enjoyed hearing Durga describe her life in India. Amiko also
loved being invited for dinner at Durga's house. The spicy Indian dishes that Durga's mother cooked
were delicious. Durga wanted to know about life in Japan. Amiko explained that her grandparents
had come to the United States from Japan but that she had never been there herself. One Saturday at
the public library, Durga and Amiko saw a flyer(广告传单) about the Festival of Cultures. After
reading the flyer, the two girls decided that the festival would be a great way to learn about each
other's cultures as well as various cultures in other countries.

By now, most people know they should be eating more vegetables. But are there ways to get more
from the vegetables you already eat A research shows that when it comes to vegetables, it's not
only how much we eat, but also how we prepare them, that decides the vitamins and other nutrients
that enter our body.
Many studies show that people who eat lots of vegetables have less heart disease,and eye problems
and even cancer. But raw vegetables are not always best. The researchers found that 198 Germans
who eat raw food were short of lycopene, the matter found in tomatoes and other red vegetables.
"There is an idea that raw foods are always going to be better," says Steven K. Clinton, a professor at
Ohio State University. "For fruits and vegetables, sometimes a little bit of cooking can be helpful."
A number of factors decide how the vegetables do good to people's health before they reach the
table,including where and how they were grown and stored before being bought. No single cooking
way is best. Some nutrients are easily lost in cooking if they are cooked in different ways.
Vitamins C and B are often lost. In January,another report said that boiling was better for carrots
than frying or serving them raw. Frying was the worst way to cook.
What cooked with the vegetables can also be important When the vegetables were cooked with
fat,the diners can get more nutrients. Fat can also make the taste of vegetables better,meaning that
people will eat more of them. Putting on some other things that make it taste better-a little salt-can
make the food taste better.
24. The writer mainly wants to tell us that ______ .
A. people should eat more vegetables
B. the way people eat vegetables is important
C. eating vegetables is good for us
D. how much vegetables one should eat
25. The people who eat the raw vegetables for a long time will ______ .
A. have the eyes problems B. have heart disease
C. be in need of lycopene D. hate eating tomatoes
26. The following decide how the vegetables do good to people EXCEPT ______ .
A. the place where the vegetables are grown
B. the way how the vegetables are stored
C. the way how the vegetables are prepared
D. the price at which the vegetable are sold
