• 2．It's all about personal peace，which means not only an imaginary space around the body，but also the space around all the senses．People feel that their space is being violated （侵犯） when they meet with an unwelcome sound，smell or look．This is probably why a man on a crowded bus shouting into his mobile phone or a woman next to you putting on strong perfume （香水） makes you feel angry．
     Whether people have had a stronger wish to protect their personal space in recent times is hard to say．Yet studies of airlines show that people have a strong desire to have space to themselves．In a survey by Trip Advisor，a travel website，people said that if they had to pay more for some extra service，they would rather have larger seats than extra food．
     Although people may need their personal space，some hardly realize it．For example，people on a bus who hold newspapers in front of their faces to read in fact keep a distance from strangers．
     Go and watch a library table．You will notice that one of the corner seats will usually be taken first，because they are the farthest way．What if someone sits opposite to you？Maybe you will pile up books as if to make a wall．
     Preference for personal space is different from culture to culture．Scientists have found that Americans generally prefer more personal space than people from other cultures．In Latin cultures，however，people are more comfortable standing close to each other．
  
  （1）The writer mainly

  in this article．
  A．tells us how to achieve personal space
  B．explains why people need personal space
  C．introduces some knowledge about personal space
  D．a(chǎn)rgues for the importance of keeping personal space
  （2）

  might feel his personal space is safe according to the passage．
  A．A person who has to sit next to a lady putting on strong perfume．
  B．A person who has been watched by a stranger for a long time．
  C．A person who hears strange noises when reading at home．
  D．A Latin boy who is chatting with a friend sitting close to him．
  （3）What can we know from the survey by Trip Advisor？

  
  A．People need a smaller personal space in recent times than before．
  B．People have a strong desire for personal space in recent times．
  C．There are not enough seats on the plane to meet people's needs．
  D．Food service is better provided than seats on the plane．
  （4）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？

  
  A．The space around the body is more needed than that around all the senses．
  B．If you hold newspapers on the bus，your personal space won't be violated．
  C．People usually choose the corner seats first in a library for personal space．
  D．Different cultures share the same preferences for personal space．

• 3．Each year on Halloween，children look forward to trick-or-treating （不請(qǐng)客就搗亂） for candies．But for some kids，eating Halloween candies can be dangerous．
     That's because one out of every 13 kids in the Us have a food allergy（過敏癥）．They are allergic to ingredients（成分）in many Halloween candies，such as peanuts，tree nuts，milk，eggs，and beans．If they eat these foods，they will get sick or even die．
     "I had to throw away all my candies with tears，" eight-year-old Conlen said．Conlen is allergic to peanuts，tree nuts，and dairy．Twelve-year-old Kylie is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts．She has been trick-or-treating only twice． "I brought my candies home and gave them to the neighbors，" Kylie said． "It felt terrible．"
     But this year，Conlen，Kylie and other kids with food allergies will have a chance for a happy Halloween．That's because nearly 100，000 households across the US have promised to take part in the Teal Pumpkin Project（TPP），which was started last year by Food Allergy Research & Education（FARE）．FARE is an organization that works to improve the lives of people with food allergies．Through the project，the households agree to have nonfood items for trick-or-treaters，including trinkets（小飾品） and toys．
     To take part in the project，people buy a teal（藍(lán)綠色） pumpkin or paint a pumpkin teal and place it in front of their house．The painted pumpkins let trick-or-treaters know that nonfood items are available there．The households also add their home addresses to an online map，making it easier for trick-or-treaters to find them．
     Kylie loves the idea．"The TPP makes Halloween fun and safe，" she said．"It makes me feel like a normal kid，and it makes everyone feel included．"
  
  （1）To Conlen and Kylie，the past Halloween were

  ．
  A．upsetting and dangerous
  B．interesting and special
  C．sick and terrible
  D．important and exciting
  （2）According to the passage，we know that FARE

  ．
  A．helps people with food allergies recover
  B．helps the households take part in the TPP
  C．takes action to change kids' bad eating habits
  D．helps kids with food allergies have a happy Halloween
  （3）The households help kids with food allergies by

  ．
  A．giving them teal pumpkins as gifts
  B．offering them all kinds of food except candies
  C．providing them with trinkets and toys as treats
  D．a(chǎn)sking them for home addresses and sending them gifts
  （4）Where is the passage most probably taken from？

  
  A．A magazine about the history of festivals．
  B．A news report on cultures and customs．
  C．An advertisement for an organization．
  D．A research paper on kid's health．
