Many people think of dirt as being
dirty! Parents often tell their children not to play in dirt or to get it on
their clothes. And there are reasons for that—soil often
contains things like bacteria (细菌), parasites (寄生虫) and pollutants
that can make people sick. With so many risks, it is no surprise that many
people find geophagy—the eating of earth or soil-unacceptable.
Yet, geophagy is actually a common
practice in many parts of the world. Since people tend to be very selective
about which soil they eat, the practice has also created an industry. In
Nigeria, the village of Uzalla processes over 500 tons of soil a year for sale
and consumption in markets hundreds of kilometers away. Geophagy also has a
long history in the U.S., where some eat soil and ship packages of it to
relatives far from home. Soil is also sold as a nutritional supplement, similar
to vitamins, in some parts of Asia.
The fact that the eating of soil is
also widespread in the animal kingdom suggests that geophagy may even be a
natural process.
Some soils are surprisingly rich in
nutrients such as iron and copper. People can often get more of these nutrients
from geophagy than from taking vitamins. This may be why the eating of soil is
often most common among pregnant women and nursing mothers who use soil for
certain nutrients they need.
Unfortunately, geophagy is also
practiced to avoid hunger when other food is scarce. In poor countries, food
can become so expensive that people substitute soil for flour or rice.
This is a serious social problem because soil can’t provide a balanced diet
though it is rich in nutrients.

My parents would often tell me how important school was for me, but I didn’t think so. I paid little attention. But one thing let me finally realize what my parents meant.One day, when I walked past a mobile phone store, I saw an advertisementon its door. It was hiring(雇佣)new workers!“Sir, are you hiring people” I went into the shop and asked. “Yes, but are you the man we need” the boss replied. He looked at me for a few seconds from head to food. “Do you have a high school diploma(文凭)” He continued, “Or do you have any work experience”I felt ashamed and I just turned around and left. I could not fall asleep that night, and thought a lot about my future. “I must go to school to continue my study because I can’t do anything without a good education, ” I said to myself silently.I never went back to the store again until I finished my studies and got a diploma.Everything looked the same when I returned to the store: the same people and the same design. However, compared with last time, I had more confidence. The boss told me they needed new workers, so it was a great chance for me.I showed my diploma to the boss. He looked at it and said: “Great! You are in.”Education helps you have a bright future. Now I am not worried about my future because I’m still learning in my spare time.( )41. The writer cared little about his studies in the past.( )42. The parents’ experience helped the writer know the importance of school.( )43. The writer’s attitude to school changed because of his failure to find a job.( )44. The boss gave the writer the chance to finally work on his third visit to the store.( )45. From the passage, we know that school education helps in one’s life.41-45 ABABA
