sage to heart and give yourself time to develop your new habits. If you are willing to change, you will soon be able to say that you will never forget these techniques because they became a part of your body.
　　6. Geothe often did outdoor skating and swimming.
　　A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
　　7. The writer cites Geothe to prove that one can change one's habits.
　　A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
　　标准答案： C,A
　　解析：6. 答案为C。利用Geothe作为答案线索词，发现文章说Geothe生活的时代还没有室内溜冰场或室内游泳池，并没说Geothe做户外的滑冰和游泳。该题是考察对句子结构的分析。
　　7.答案为A。该题也与前一题相关。文章最后一句说“如果你愿意改变，新技能将成为你生活的一部分。”，该句也反映出作者引用Geothe的目的。

　　The fridge
　　The fridge is considered a necessity. It has been so since the 1960s when packaged food first appeared with the label: "store in the refrigerator."
　　In my fridgeless Fifties childhood, I was fed well and healthily. The milkman came daily, the grocer, the butcher, the baker, and the ice-cream man delivered two or three times a week. The Sunday meat would last until Wednesday and surplus bread and milk became all kinds of cakes. Nothing was wasted and we were never troubled by rotten food. Thirty years on, food deliveries have ceased, fresh vegetables are almost unobtainable in the country.
　　The invention of the fridge contributed comparatively little to the art of food preservation. A vast variety of well-tried techniques already existed -- natural cooling, drying, smoking, slating, sugaring, bottling…
　　What refrigeration did promote was marketing -- marketing hardware and electricity, marketing soft drinks, marketing dead bodies of animals around the globe in search of a good price.
　　Consequently, most of the world's fridges are to be found, not in the tropics where they might prove useful, but in the wealthy countries with mild temperatures where they are climatically almost unnecessary. Every winter, millions of fridges hum away continuously, and at vast expanse, busily maintaining an artificially-cooled space inside an artificially-heated house -- while outside, nature provides the desired temperature free of charge.
　　The fridge's effect upon the environment has been evident, while its contribution to human happiness has been insignificant. If you don't believe me, try it yourself. Invest in a food cabinet and turn off your fridge next winter. You may miss the hamburgers but at least you'll get ride of that terrible hum.
