原文Many of us love July because it's the month when nature's berries and stone fruits are in abundance.These colourful and sweet jewels form British Columbia's fields are little powerhouses of nutritional protection. Of the common berries, strawberries are highest in vitamin C, although, because of their seeds, raspberries contain a little more protein (蛋白质), iron and zinc (not that fruits have much protein). Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants (抗氧化物质). The yellow and orange stone fruits such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into vitamin A and which are antioxidants. As for cherries (樱桃), they are so delicious who cares? However, they are rich in vitamin C. When combined with berries of slices of other fruits, frozen bananas make an excellent base for thick, cooling fruit shakes and low fat "ice cream". For this purpose, select ripe bananas for freezing as they are much sweeter. Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and freeze. If you like, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown. Frozen bananas will last several weeks, depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer. If you have a juicer, you can simply feed in frozen bananas and some berries or sliced fruit.Out comes a "soft﹣serve" creamy dessert, to be eaten right away. This makes a fun activity for a children's party; they love feeding the fruit and frozen bananas into the top of the machine and watching the ice cream come out below. (1)What does the author seem to like about cherries?    A. They contain protein. B. They are high in vitamin A. C. They have a pleasant taste. D. They are rich in antioxidants. (2)Why is fresh lemon juice used in freezing bananas?    A. To make them smell better. B. To keep their colour. C. To speed up their ripening. D. To improve their nutrition.

A research paper. D. A travel brochure.
译文我们中的许多人都喜欢七月,因为七月是大自然浆果和核果丰富的月份。不列颠哥伦比亚省田地里的这些五颜六色、甜美的宝石是营养保护的小动力。 在常见的浆果中,草莓的维生素C含量最高,尽管由于树莓的种子,树莓含有更多的蛋白质、铁和锌(并不是说水果含有太多蛋白质)。蓝莓的抗氧化剂含量特别高(抗氧化物质). 黄色和橙色的核果,如桃子,富含类胡萝卜素,我们将其转化为维生素A,这些类胡萝卜素是抗氧化剂。至于樱桃,它们非常美味,谁在乎呢然而,它们富含维生素C。 当冷冻香蕉与其他水果片的浆果结合在一起时,它是厚的、冷却的水果奶昔和低脂“冰淇淋”的绝佳基底。为此,选择成熟的香蕉冷冻,因为它们更甜。去掉外皮,将它们放在塑料袋或容器中冷冻。如果你喜欢,在香蕉上挤一点新鲜的柠檬汁可以防止它们变成棕色。冷冻香蕉可以持续数周,这取决于它们的成熟度和冰箱的温度。 如果你有榨汁机,你可以简单地喂入冷冻香蕉和一些浆果或水果片。马上就可以吃到“软质”奶油甜点。这是儿童派对的一项有趣活动;他们喜欢把水果和冷冻香蕉喂到机器的顶部,看着冰淇淋从下面出来。 (1) 作者似乎喜欢樱桃的什么    A.它们含有蛋白质。B.它们富含维生素A。 C.它们味道鲜美。D.它们富含抗氧化剂。 (2) 为什么新鲜柠檬汁被用来冷冻香蕉    A.为了让它们闻起来更好。B.为了保持它们的颜色。 C.加快它们的成熟。D.改善它们的营养。 (3) 最后一段中的“榨汁机”是什么    A.甜点。B.饮料。C.容器。D.机器。 (4) 文本可能取自哪一个    A.一本生物学课本。B.一本健康杂志。 C.一篇研究论文。D.一本旅游手册。
