Pioneering front-row White House journalist Helen Thomas died at age 92 after a long illness. Thomas covered 10 presidents over nearly half a century, and became a legend in the industry.

She was always at White House news conferences — sitting front and center — where she frequently annoyed government spokesmen with her pointed questions.

Thomas began covering the White House for United Press International when John F. Kennedy became president in 1961 and was a fixture there until her retirement in 2010.

In a written statement, Obama called Thomas a “true pioneer” and said she kept the presidents she covered —including himself—on their toes.

Thomas, the daughter of Lebanese immigrants, was born in Winchester, Kentucky on August 4,1920. She was one of nine children. Thomas was raised in Detroit, where she attended Wayne State University and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in 1942.

In describing her job, Thomas once said, “ I’ve never covered the president in any way other than that he is ultimately responsible.”

Thomas embraced the freedoms of a columnist with vigor(活力). No question seemed off-limits for her. Colleagues remember her as a genuinely fearless woman who asked the toughest questions of presidents, no matter their party.

In January 2009, as President George Bush was preparing to leave office, Thomas aimed her editorial guns at him and his administration. In a commentary, she slammed (抨击) Bush for what she considered his failings, including leading the country “into a senseless war against Iraqi a calamity still under way as he leaves office almost six years after the invasion.” She considered him “the worst president ever”.

8. According to the text , Helen Thomas was ______.

A a wise politician   B a writing pioneer   C a legendary journalist        D a White House adviser

9. The underlined word “fixture”in Paragraph 3 probably means _______.

A an object firmly fixed in place           B a person regarded fixed in the same position

C someone to fix tricky problems            D a device to secure something somewhere

10. What can we learn about Helen Thomas from the text?

A. She covered 10 presidents over a period of 49 years.

B. She often raised unreasonable questions.

C. She was born and brought up in Lebanon.

D. She was criticized by President Obama.

11. How did Thomas comment on George Bush?

A. He should be kept on his toes.           B. He was forced to be responsible.

C. He didn’t deserve to be president.      D. He shouldn’t have started the Iraq War.

       Last summer holiday, I went to a summer camp, there I had some friends already. I did many interested things with these friends, having funs. One day, I saw a boy, one I had previous known from one of my basketball teams. Stood by himself, he said, "I'm all alone." I happened to be a few feet from him and heard what he had said, but I went up to him and tapped him on shoulder. "We are not alone; I'm your friend," I said. Unfortunately, the boy didn't recognize me at first. It took him a while to figure out of that I was his teammate. Since then, though, we had hung out and become good friends.

You know eating fruit and vegetables does good. But do you know it can also make you look good? People who increased their intake over just six weeks developed a healthy glow and appeared more attractive, researchers found. Scientists at St Andrews University found eating them slightly increased yellow and red pigments(色素) in the volunteers' skin. They monitored the food intake of 35 people and took pictures of their faces, arms and hands using a sensitive camera at the start, and after three and six weeks. Increasing their intake of greens by 2.9 portions a day was found to make the person look healthier and an extra 3.3 portions could enhance their attractiveness, when their photographs were rated by others.

Fruit and vegetables are rich in carotenoids(类胡萝卜素), which are known to protect against cell damage from pollution and UV rays, and can also prevent age-related diseases including heart disease and cancer. But while it was known eating extreme amounts of certain vegetables such as carrots could turn skin orange，it was not known a small increase was perceptible(被觉察）to others—and was seen as appealing.

A camera measured changes to the skin's redness, yellowness and lightness, and found it significantly changed in people who naturally increased their intake. These changes were not evident in three weeks. Using light sensors, the researchers showed these red and yellow hues(色调) were linked with the levels of carotenoids in their skin. There are hundreds of carotenoids but those thought to have the most dramatic effect are lycopene—which gives tomatoes and red peppers their red color—and beta-carotene found in carrots as well as broccoli, squash, and spinach. Skin color is also affected by chemicals called polyphenols, found in apples, blueberries and cherries, which cause blood rush to the skin surface. 

67. What does the underlined word “glow” probably mean?

A. Life style           B. Family tradition               C. Skin color         D. Eating habit

68. Carotenoids have all the functions except ____________.

A. curing some diseases.

B. preventing heart disease and cancer.

C. preventing age-related diseases.

D. protecting against cell damage from pollution and UV rays.

69. Which of the following can cause blood rush to the skin surface?

A. Polyphenol.              B. Beta-carotene.           C. Lycopene.         D. Carotenoid.

70. Which can be the best title of the passage?

A. How to become attractive?

B. Eating fruit and vegetables does good.

C. Fruit and vegetables are rich in carotenoids.

D. Eating fruit and vegetables makes you look good.
