Convenient, nutritious, cheap and available year round, carrots are not just for rabbits. But the Easter Bunny would certainly approve of a carrot dish as part of a holiday meal.
Because of their natural sweetness, carrots have long been part of the dessert menu as well as the salad bar. In the Middle Ages, carrots were used in sweet cakes and other desserts. They are still used in sweets in the Middle East and Asia, and are often preserved in jams. In California, carrot juice is popular.
Carrots were first cultivated in central Asia and the Middle East, and used as a medicine rather than as a vegetable. But carrots weren’t always orange. In the 10th century, they were white or purple. The Dutch developed orange carrots in the 1600s.
Carrots are a great convenience food. They’re inexpensive and available year round. And even children who won’t touch other vegetables eat carrots.
Choose carrots with a bright, even color and smooth
A. Easy to get.
B. Full of nutrients.
C. A favorite food for rabbits.
D. Sweetness.

[单项选择] I live in the land of Disney, Hollywood and year-round sun. You may think people in such a glamorous, fun-filled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the ’’nature of happiness. Many intelligent people still equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in common. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is a deeper, more abiding emotion. Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh. But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends. I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun. These rich, beautiful individuals have constant access to glamorous parties, fancy cars, expensive houses, everything that spells "happines
A. Fun creates long-lasting satisfaction.
B. Fun that is long-standing may lead to happiness.
C. Happiness is enduring whereas fun is short-lived.

Last July, my 12-year-old car died on California’s Santa Arm Freeway. It was an hour before sunset, and I was 25 miles from home. I couldn’t reach anyone to pick me up, so I decided to take a bus. Not knowing the routes, I figured I’d just head east.
A bus pulled up, and I asked the driver how far she was going. "Four more lights," she said. There was another bus I could take from there. This clearly was going to be a long night.
She dropped me off at the end of hex route and told me which bus to look for. After waiting 30 minutes, I began to think about a Very expensive taxi ride home. Then a bus pulled up. There was no lighted number above its windshield(挡风玻璃). It was out of service. But the door opened, and I was surprised to find that it was the same driver.
"I just can’t leave you here," she said. "This isn’t the nicest place. I’ll give you a ride home."
"You’ll drive

B. would keep her in memory
