I enjoy throwing stuff away. I’d love to go full minimalism (極簡(jiǎn)主義), but my wife and two teenage kids do not share my dream of a house with almost nothing in it. I have tried. When the kids were little, I taught them my two favorite games – “Do We Need It?” and “Put It in Its Place”– and made them play every few months. Their enthusiasm never matched mine.
If I’m going to be honest, my own tidying skills are not as great as I’d like. My “discarded” pile is never quite the trash mountain I want because I make up excuses for why things are useful. I consider this unhealthy. I want to be better at moving on.
So, this time I found help – the classics for people like me: The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, by Marie Kondo. Kondo’s commitment to her craft is astonishing. Her philosophy is only to keep things you love. Can I go full Kondo? I will try. One central idea is to clean by category. You start by collecting all clothes and gathering them together for consideration. It makes you rethink how you organize. Next, hold each item and ask if it brings you joy. This way you’re choosing what to keep. And that’s how I find myself with all my clothes on my bedroom floor. My wife walks by and gives me a look that says I’m nuts. She’s probably not wrong.
Somewhere near the bottom of this chaos is my special jacket. I move through the pile: pants, shirts, suits and shoes. Then my last category: jackets. I haven’t worn the thing in about 30 years. Somehow, it has survived. Now that I’m striving to follow Kondo – surely, its time has come?
I hold it in my hand. There is a tear just below the collar that widens as I hold it. It’s literally falling apart. Will I ever wear it again? Not a chance. Does it feel good to wear? Does it bring me joy? Actually, yes. At this moment, my daughter walks in. She asks about the jacket. I tell her the story. She thinks I should keep it. It’s cool and unique and full of memories. She is arguing that nostalgia (懷念) is the very reason.
I’m not entirely convinced by my daughter’s arguments. I believe in looking ahead, not backward. Nevertheless, sometimes it’s hard to let go. So I gently place the jacket on the “keep” pile.
4. What does the underlined word “discarded” probably mean in Paragraph 2?

Lichens(地衣)
Lichens look like splashes of paint left behind by a careless painter. Unlike many plants, they do not require soil to grow. They grow on trunk of trees in steaming tropical rain forests, on farmers’ fenceposts, on the bricks of big-city buildings, and on old gravestones. Lichens can tolerate extremes of climate. They grow on rocks in hot springs, on wind-swept mountaintops, and on stones in the driest deserts. In the Arctic, lichens are the principal source of food for reindeer. Whole mountainsides in Antarctica appear green and orange because of the presence of lichens; they are one of the few plants that can survive there. They are among the oldest of known plants. Recently, scientists discovered lichen fossils on a rock in a mine in southwest China that date back 600 million years.
When conditions become harsh, lichens become dormant(休眠). If there is not enough moisture, they simply dry up, but a short rain or even a heavy dew gives them new life. When growing on rock surfaces, lichens produce acids that dissolve(溶解)the minerals, contributing to the process of weathering by which rocks are slowly turned to soil. This property enables lichens to be pioneers. They appear on barren rock rubbed clean by glaciers, fires, lava flows, or floods, beginning the process of soil formation that allows mosses(苔蘚)and other plants to later take root. But, despite their hardiness, lichens are extremely sensitive to airborne particles(顆粒). That’s why they serve as an early warning system for air pollution.
It is the acids lichens produce that give them their distinctive colors. Lichens are often spoken of in the same breath as mosses, and some lichens are even called mosses, but true mosses are all distinctively green, whereas lichens appear in many vivid colors. At one time, acids from lichens were used to make dyes, such as the purple dye, the blue dye, and the red dye, and they are sometimes still used that way today. Some lichens, such as oakmoss, contain oils that produce fragrant odors used in scented soaps, cosmetics and perfumes. Some lichens are also known to have antibiotic properties to kill bacteria.
So definite are the form, color, and characteristics of these organisms that for hundreds of years lichens were constantly under scientists’ microscope.
8. What characteristic of lichens is mainly talked about in paragraph 1?
A. They grow only on rock surfaces.
B. They live primarily in cold places.
C. They have adapted to a wide variety of environments.
D. They live in remote locations far from human communities.
9. The author refer to lichens as pioneers in paragraph 2 because they __________.
A. have their primitive structure
B. grow in areas before other plants do
C. are found in remote parts of the world
D. develop so early in the history of the planet
10. According to paragraph 3, humans use lichens in the following ways EXCEPT __________.
A. as a means of coloring clothing
B. as a type of medicine
C. as a source of food
D. as an ingredient in perfume
11. Which of the following cases would be probably dealt with in the next paragraph?
A. Lichens are important in Canada because of their abundance in the north.
B. Extracts of lichens were sold as herbal medicines to facilitate hair growth.
C. Glacier Park’s vast array of lichens indicate relatively good air quality.
D. A German botanist first found lichens are composed of two life forms.

Although the weather is very hot now, the carnival of ice and snow is getting closer. The preparation work for Beijing Winter Olympic Games, which are expected to begin on Feb 4, 2022, has entered its final stage. In January, 2021, the ice-making work on the Ice Ribbon, a landmark venue for the Beijing Winter Olympics, was completed.
In the Winter Olympics, where races can be won or lost by a small-time gap, tiny imperfections in the ice can make a big difference. “It’s not just a hunk of ice like you’d normally think of, like ice cubes sitting in your freezer,” told Kenneth Golden, a US mathematician who studies the structures of ice. “It’s a much more fascinating and complex substance than people would normally think.”
The first step for building any ice rink is to purify the water to remove dissolved solids like salts and minerals. Such impurities don’t fit in the regular hexagonal (六邊形的) structure of ice that forms as water freezes. The purer the water is, the more consistent the ice surface.
In addition to the need for excellence in the raw materials of ice-making, technology is also very important. As one of the most advanced technologies for winter sports venues, a carbon dioxide (CO2) cooling technology has been applied on a large scale for the Beijing Winter Olympic Games. CO2 is not new when it comes to ice-making. However, it has been gradually replaced by the man-made refrigerant (制冷劑) like Freon.
With increasing attention toward climate change, the old refrigerant has come into use again. As an element of the atmosphere, CO2 doesn’t damage the ozone layer. Although CO2 is a greenhouse gas, its greenhouse effect is much lower than that of other man-made refrigerants. The Winter Olympics venues adopted CO2 instead of Freon as a refrigerant in ice-making, which will reduce carbon dioxide emissions greatly.
“We believe these technological innovations will bring Beijing 2022 to spectators all over the world in a more impressive way,” told Gao Bo from the Media Operations Department of the Organizing Committee of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games.
12. What is the result of impurities in water for ice-making?
A. The water isn’t able to freeze completely.
B. The quality of the ice will be affected.
C. The ice surface will be more consistent.
D. It’s likely for athletes to fall on the ice.
13. Why has CO2 cooling technology been applied for the Winter Olympic Games?
A It’s the most advanced technologies for ice-making.
B. CO2 is more efficient than other refrigerants.
C. CO2 is more environmentally-friendly than Freon.
D. CO2 has already existed in the atmosphere.
14. What is Gao’s attitude to CO2 being applied to ice-making?
A. Unclear. B. Opposed. C. Doubtful. D. Favourable.
15. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. The Beijing Winter Olympic Games Is Coming.
B. Beneath Olympic Ice.
C. The Use of Refrigerants in Olympic Games.
D. The Structure of Ice.

People connect to their cultural or ethnic group through similar food patterns. People from different cultural backgrounds eat different foods. ____16____ These food preferences result in patterns of food choices within a cultural or regional group.
Regional food habits do exist, but they also change over time. ____17____ They may use their old recipes with new ingredients, or experiment with new recipes to match their own tastes. Because people and food are mobile, attempts to characterize a country or people by what they eat are often inaccurate.
In addition to impacting food choices, culture also plays a role in food-related etiquette (禮節(jié)). For example, the amount people eat and leave uneaten varies from culture to culture. Some people from Middle Eastern and Southeast Asian countries might leave a little bit of food on their plates in order to indicate that their hunger has been satisfied. ____18____ Similarly, a clean plate might signify either satisfaction with the meal or desire for more food.
____19____ Many families believe that mealtime is a good time to communicate and to “catch up” on the lives of family and friends. Among other families, talking during a meal is acceptable, but the topics are limited. In some Southeast Asian countries, it is considered polite to keep silent during a meal.
Even among people who share similar cultural backgrounds, eating patterns are not identical. Further, men eat differently from women. ____20____ However, in most parts of the world, food is associated with expression of friendship. Therefore, sensitivity to food customs is important in cross-cultural communication.
A. People off different age groups eat differently.
B. As people immigrate; food preferences are exported.
C. Food items themselves have meaning attached to them.
D. The areas in which families live influence food likes and dislikes.
E. One of the reasons is that food itself is brought to other countries.
F. Besides, the role of conversation during mealtime varies from place to place.
G. However, cooks from other locations might be displeased if food is left on the plate.

I enjoy throwing stuff away. I’d love to go full minimalism (極簡(jiǎn)主義), but my wife and two teenage kids do not share my dream of a house with almost nothing in it. I have tried. When the kids were little, I taught them my two favorite games – “Do We Need It?” and “Put It in Its Place”– and made them play every few months. Their enthusiasm never matched mine.
If I’m going to be honest, my own tidying skills are not as great as I’d like. My “discarded” pile is never quite the trash mountain I want because I make up excuses for why things are useful. I consider this unhealthy. I want to be better at moving on.
So, this time I found help – the classics for people like me: The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, by Marie Kondo. Kondo’s commitment to her craft is astonishing. Her philosophy is only to keep things you love. Can I go full Kondo? I will try. One central idea is to clean by category. You start by collecting all clothes and gathering them together for consideration. It makes you rethink how you organize. Next, hold each item and ask if it brings you joy. This way you’re choosing what to keep. And that’s how I find myself with all my clothes on my bedroom floor. My wife walks by and gives me a look that says I’m nuts. She’s probably not wrong.
Somewhere near the bottom of this chaos is my special jacket. I move through the pile: pants, shirts, suits and shoes. Then my last category: jackets. I haven’t worn the thing in about 30 years. Somehow, it has survived. Now that I’m striving to follow Kondo – surely, its time has come?
I hold it in my hand. There is a tear just below the collar that widens as I hold it. It’s literally falling apart. Will I ever wear it again? Not a chance. Does it feel good to wear? Does it bring me joy? Actually, yes. At this moment, my daughter walks in. She asks about the jacket. I tell her the story. She thinks I should keep it. It’s cool and unique and full of memories. She is arguing that nostalgia (懷念) is the very reason.
I’m not entirely convinced by my daughter’s arguments. I believe in looking ahead, not backward. Nevertheless, sometimes it’s hard to let go. So I gently place the jacket on the “keep” pile.

【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】本文是記敘文。文中作者喜歡完全的極簡(jiǎn)主義風(fēng)格,但家人并不支持他,為了提高整理技巧,作者去讀了《改變生活的整理魔法》。在整理滿地的衣服時(shí),作者發(fā)現(xiàn)了難以舍棄的夾克衫,又把它放在了“保留”堆里。
【4題詳解】
詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第二段“If I’m going to be honest, my own tidying skills are not as great as I’d like. My “discarded” pile is never quite the trash mountain I want because I make up excuses for why things are useful. ”(說(shuō)實(shí)話,我自己的整理技能并沒(méi)有我想要的那么好。我的“discarded”堆從來(lái)都不是我想要的垃圾山,因?yàn)槲覟闁|西為什么有用找借口)可知,愛(ài)整理的作者,整理出來(lái)要扔棄的不是自己想要的垃圾山。故劃線詞意思是丟棄,近義詞是abandoned。故選C。
【5題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“I want to be better at moving on.”(我想更好地繼續(xù)前進(jìn))以及第三段“So, this time I found help – the classics for people like me: The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, by Marie Kondo. Kondo’s commitment to her craft is astonishing. Her philosophy is only to keep things you love.”(所以,這次我找到了幫助——為像我這樣的人準(zhǔn)備的經(jīng)典書(shū)籍:近藤麻理惠的《改變生活的整理魔法》。近藤對(duì)她的技藝的投入是驚人的。她的哲學(xué)是只保留自己喜歡的東西)可知,提高他的整理技巧是驅(qū)使作者去讀《改變生活的整理魔法》。故選B。
【6題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段“I enjoy throwing stuff away. I’d love to go full minimalism (極簡(jiǎn)主義), but my wife and two teenage kids do not share my dream of a house with almost nothing in it. I have tried. When the kids were little, I taught them my two favorite games – ‘Do We Need It?’ and ‘Put It in Its Place’– and made them play every few months. Their enthusiasm never matched mine. ”(我喜歡扔掉東西。我喜歡完全的極簡(jiǎn)主義風(fēng)格,但我的妻子和兩個(gè)十幾歲的孩子不喜歡我那種幾乎什么都沒(méi)有的房子的夢(mèng)想。我已經(jīng)試過(guò)了。當(dāng)孩子們還小的時(shí)候,我教他們我最喜歡的兩個(gè)游戲——“我們需要它嗎?”和《放回原處》——每隔幾個(gè)月就讓他們演奏一次。他們的熱情永遠(yuǎn)比不上我)可知,家人們對(duì)極簡(jiǎn)主義不那么有激情。故選D。
【7題詳解】
主旨大意題。通讀全文以及根據(jù)最后一段“I believe in looking ahead, not backward. Nevertheless, sometimes it’s hard to let go. So I gently place the jacket on the “keep” pile.”(我相信向前看,而不是向后看。然而,有時(shí)候放手是很難的。所以我輕輕地把夾克放在“保留”那一堆)可知,作者一直堅(jiān)持極簡(jiǎn)主義風(fēng)格,但是在整理過(guò)程中也遇到了難以取舍的物品,所以本文圍繞著“在收納過(guò)程中知道什么時(shí)候放手”的主題展開(kāi)?!爸朗裁磿r(shí)候放手”適合做最佳標(biāo)題。故選A。

Lichens(地衣)
Lichens look like splashes of paint left behind by a careless painter. Unlike many plants, they do not require soil to grow. They grow on trunk of trees in steaming tropical rain forests, on farmers’ fenceposts, on the bricks of big-city buildings, and on old gravestones. Lichens can tolerate extremes of climate. They grow on rocks in hot springs, on wind-swept mountaintops, and on stones in the driest deserts. In the Arctic, lichens are the principal source of food for reindeer. Whole mountainsides in Antarctica appear green and orange because of the presence of lichens; they are one of the few plants that can survive there. They are among the oldest of known plants. Recently, scientists discovered lichen fossils on a rock in a mine in southwest China that date back 600 million years.
When conditions become harsh, lichens become dormant(休眠). If there is not enough moisture, they simply dry up, but a short rain or even a heavy dew gives them new life. When growing on rock surfaces, lichens produce acids that dissolve(溶解)the minerals, contributing to the process of weathering by which rocks are slowly turned to soil. This property enables lichens to be pioneers. They appear on barren rock rubbed clean by glaciers, fires, lava flows, or floods, beginning the process of soil formation that allows mosses(苔蘚)and other plants to later take root. But, despite their hardiness, lichens are extremely sensitive to airborne particles(顆粒). That’s why they serve as an early warning system for air pollution.
It is the acids lichens produce that give them their distinctive colors. Lichens are often spoken of in the same breath as mosses, and some lichens are even called mosses, but true mosses are all distinctively green, whereas lichens appear in many vivid colors. At one time, acids from lichens were used to make dyes, such as the purple dye, the blue dye, and the red dye, and they are sometimes still used that way today. Some lichens, such as oakmoss, contain oils that produce fragrant odors used in scented soaps, cosmetics and perfumes. Some lichens are also known to have antibiotic properties to kill bacteria.
So definite are the form, color, and characteristics of these organisms that for hundreds of years lichens were constantly under scientists’ microscope.
8. What characteristic of lichens is mainly talked about in paragraph 1?
A. They grow only on rock surfaces.
B. They live primarily in cold places.
C. They have adapted to a wide variety of environments.
D. They live in remote locations far from human communities.
9. The author refer to lichens as pioneers in paragraph 2 because they __________.
A. have their primitive structure
B. grow in areas before other plants do
C. are found in remote parts of the world
D. develop so early in the history of the planet
10. According to paragraph 3, humans use lichens in the following ways EXCEPT __________.
A. as a means of coloring clothing
B. as a type of medicine
C. as a source of food
D. as an ingredient in perfume
11. Which of the following cases would be probably dealt with in the next paragraph?
A. Lichens are important in Canada because of their abundance in the north.
B. Extracts of lichens were sold as herbal medicines to facilitate hair growth.
C. Glacier Park’s vast array of lichens indicate relatively good air quality.
D. A German botanist first found lichens are composed of two life forms.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】這是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章主要介紹了地衣,包括其各種各樣的生長(zhǎng)環(huán)境和用途。

【9題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中“When growing on rock surfaces, lichens produce acids that dissolve(溶解)the minerals, contributing to the process of weathering by which rocks are slowly turned to soil. This property enables lichens to be pioneers.

Although the weather is very hot now, the carnival of ice and snow is getting closer. The preparation work for Beijing Winter Olympic Games, which are expected to begin on Feb 4, 2022, has entered its final stage. In January, 2021, the ice-making work on the Ice Ribbon, a landmark venue for the Beijing Winter Olympics, was completed.
In the Winter Olympics, where races can be won or lost by a small-time gap, tiny imperfections in the ice can make a big difference. “It’s not just a hunk of ice like you’d normally think of, like ice cubes sitting in your freezer,” told Kenneth Golden, a US mathematician who studies the structures of ice. “It’s a much more fascinating and complex substance than people would normally think.”
The first step for building any ice rink is to purify the water to remove dissolved solids like salts and minerals. Such impurities don’t fit in the regular hexagonal (六邊形的) structure of ice that forms as water freezes. The purer the water is, the more consistent the ice surface.
In addition to the need for excellence in the raw materials of ice-making, technology is also very important. As one of the most advanced technologies for winter sports venues, a carbon dioxide (CO2) cooling technology has been applied on a large scale for the Beijing Winter Olympic Games. CO2 is not new when it comes to ice-making. However, it has been gradually replaced by the man-made refrigerant (制冷劑) like Freon.
With increasing attention toward climate change, the old refrigerant has come into use again. As an element of the atmosphere, CO2 doesn’t damage the ozone layer. Although CO2 is a greenhouse gas, its greenhouse effect is much lower than that of other man-made refrigerants. The Winter Olympics venues adopted CO2 instead of Freon as a refrigerant in ice-making, which will reduce carbon dioxide emissions greatly.
“We believe these technological innovations will bring Beijing 2022 to spectators all over the world in a more impressive way,” told Gao Bo from the Media Operations Department of the Organizing Committee of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games.
12. What is the result of impurities in water for ice-making?
A. The water isn’t able to freeze completely.
B. The quality of the ice will be affected.
C. The ice surface will be more consistent.
D. It’s likely for athletes to fall on the ice.
13. Why has CO2 cooling technology been applied for the Winter Olympic Games?
A. It’s the most advanced technologies for ice-making.
B. CO2 is more efficient than other refrigerants.
C. CO2 is more environmentally-friendly than Freon.
D. CO2 has already existed in the atmosphere.
14. What is Gao’s attitude to CO2 being applied to ice-making?
A. Unclear. B. Opposed. C. Doubtful. D. Favourable.
15. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. The Beijing Winter Olympic Games Is Coming.
B. Beneath Olympic Ice.
C. The Use of Refrigerants in Olympic Games.
D. The Structure of Ice.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. B

【12題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段“Such impurities don’t fit in the regular hexagonal structure of ice that forms as water freezes. The purer the water is, the more consistent the ice surface.”(這些雜質(zhì)不適合水結(jié)冰時(shí)形成規(guī)則的六邊形冰結(jié)構(gòu)。水越純凈,冰面越穩(wěn)定。)可知,制冰用水中有雜質(zhì),冰的質(zhì)量會(huì)受到影響。故選B項(xiàng)。
【13題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段“As an element of the atmosphere, CO2 doesn’t damage the ozone layer. Although CO2 is a greenhouse gas, its greenhouse effect is much lower than that of other man-made refrigerants. The Winter Olympics venues adopted CO2 instead of Freon as a refrigerant in ice-making, which will reduce carbon dioxide emissions greatly.”(作為大氣的一種成分,二氧化碳不會(huì)破壞臭氧層。雖然二氧化碳是一種溫室氣體,但其溫室效應(yīng)遠(yuǎn)低于其他人造制冷劑。冬奧會(huì)場(chǎng)館在制冰過(guò)程中采用二氧化碳代替氟利昂作為制冷劑,這將大大減少二氧化碳的排放。)可知,二氧化碳冷卻技術(shù)被應(yīng)用于冬奧會(huì)是因?yàn)槎趸急确焊迎h(huán)保。故選C項(xiàng)。

People connect to their cultural or ethnic group through similar food patterns. People from different cultural backgrounds eat different foods. ____16____ These food preferences result in patterns of food choices within a cultural or regional group.
Regional food habits do exist, but they also change over time. ____17____ They may use their old recipes with new ingredients, or experiment with new recipes to match their own tastes. Because people and food are mobile, attempts to characterize a country or people by what they eat are often inaccurate.
In addition to impacting food choices, culture also plays a role in food-related etiquette (禮節(jié)). For example, the amount people eat and leave uneaten varies from culture to culture. Some people from Middle Eastern and Southeast Asian countries might leave a little bit of food on their plates in order to indicate that their hunger has been satisfied. ____18____ Similarly, a clean plate might signify either satisfaction with the meal or desire for more food.
____19____ Many families believe that mealtime is a good time to communicate and to “catch up” on the lives of family and friends. Among other families, talking during a meal is acceptable, but the topics are limited. In some Southeast Asian countries, it is considered polite to keep silent during a meal.
Even among people who share similar cultural backgrounds, eating patterns are not identical. Further, men eat differently from women. ____20____ However, in most parts of the world, food is associated with expression of friendship. Therefore, sensitivity to food customs is important in cross-cultural communication.
A. People off different age groups eat differently.
B. As people immigrate; food preferences are exported.
C. Food items themselves have meaning attached to them.
D. The areas in which families live influence food likes and dislikes.
E. One of the reasons is that food itself is brought to other countries.
F. Besides, the role of conversation during mealtime varies from place to place.
G. However, cooks from other locations might be displeased if food is left on the plate.

【導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】這是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章主要講述了在不同的文化中飲食模式不同的原因。
【16題詳解】
根據(jù)“People from different cultural backgrounds eat different foods. (不同文化背景的人吃不同的食物)”以及“These food preferences result in patterns of food choices within a cultural or regional group.(這些食物偏好導(dǎo)致了文化或區(qū)域群體內(nèi)的食物選擇模式)”可知,不同文化背景的人吃不同的食物,而家庭所居住的局域也會(huì)對(duì)食物的偏好有所影響。由此可知,D項(xiàng)“家庭居住的地區(qū)影響食物的好惡”符合語(yǔ)境,和前一句話共同解釋了造成飲食偏好的原因。故選D。
【17題詳解】
根據(jù)“They may use their old recipes with new ingredients, or experiment with new recipes to match their own tastes. Because people and food are mobile, attempts to characterize a country or people by what they eat are often inaccurate.(他們可能會(huì)用他們的老食譜搭配新的配料,或者嘗試新的食譜來(lái)滿足自己的口味。因?yàn)槿撕褪澄锸橇鲃?dòng)的,所以試圖通過(guò)吃什么來(lái)描述一個(gè)國(guó)家或一個(gè)人往往是不準(zhǔn)確的)”可知,因?yàn)槿丝诤褪澄锒际橇鲃?dòng)的,所以人們吃的食物也會(huì)因?yàn)槿丝诤褪澄锏牧鲃?dòng)而改變。由此可知,B項(xiàng)“隨著人們的移民,食物偏好被輸出”符合語(yǔ)境。B項(xiàng)中的 immigrate和下文中“people and food are mobile”相呼應(yīng)。故選B。
【18題詳解】
根據(jù)“In addition to impacting food choices, culture also plays a role in food-related etiquette (禮節(jié)).( 除了影響食物選擇外,文化也在與食物相關(guān)的禮儀中發(fā)揮作用)”以及“Some people from Middle Eastern and Southeast Asian countries might leave a little bit of food on their plates in order to indicate that their hunger has been satisfied.( 一些來(lái)自中東和東南亞國(guó)家的人可能會(huì)在盤(pán)子里留下一點(diǎn)食物,以表明他們的饑餓得到了滿足)”可知,文化的不同也在與食物相關(guān)的禮儀中發(fā)揮作用,而且文中舉了幾個(gè)不同的飲食習(xí)俗。由此可知,G項(xiàng)“然而,如果食物留在盤(pán)子里,其他地方的廚師可能會(huì)不高興”符合語(yǔ)境。G項(xiàng)中的however和前文形成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,而且也是在舉例說(shuō)明不同的飲食習(xí)俗。故選G。
【19題詳解】
根據(jù)“Many families believe that mealtime is a good time to communicate and to “catch up” on the lives of family and friends. (許多家庭認(rèn)為,進(jìn)餐時(shí)間是溝通和“趕上”家人和朋友生活好時(shí)機(jī))”可知,本段主要講述進(jìn)餐時(shí)間是和家人溝通的好時(shí)機(jī)。由此可知,F(xiàn)項(xiàng)“此外,在進(jìn)餐時(shí)間交談的作用因地而異”符合語(yǔ)境。F項(xiàng)中的conversation和下文中的communicate相呼應(yīng)。故選F。
【20題詳解】
根據(jù)“Even among people who share similar cultural backgrounds, eating patterns are not identical. Further, men eat differently from women.( 即使在文化背景相似的人群中,飲食模式也不盡相同。此外,男性的飲食與女性不同)”可知,本段主要講述即使在文化相同的人群中,飲食習(xí)慣也會(huì)不同。由此可知,A項(xiàng)“不同年齡段的人吃得不同”符合語(yǔ)境。和前一句話共同構(gòu)成了“即使在文化相同的人群中,飲食習(xí)慣也會(huì)不同”的兩個(gè)方面。故選A。

考查冠詞。句意:直到清朝,8月27日的祭祀儀式規(guī)模更大。a larger scale意為“更大的規(guī)模”。故填a。
【70題詳解】
考查形容詞。句意:提高了全國(guó)學(xué)校和院校教師的工資,表現(xiàn)優(yōu)秀的教師被授予榮譽(yù)或晉升到更高的職位。根據(jù)句意可知,晉升是到達(dá)更高的崗位,所以用形容詞的比較級(jí)。故填higher。

During a show at my Junior high school, many other student chose to play a musical instrument or tell a joke, but I decided sing my favorite song. I had practiced the song many times and could sing it perfectly. However, this day doesn’t go as I had planned. When my name was called, I walked on the stage. Suddenly, 300 people were watching us. I was very nervous that my hands were shaking. Then the music came on. I couldn’t remember of the first part of the song and didn’t sing it at all. To my surprising, instead of laugh at me, people tried to cheer me on. I became relaxing and sang the rest perfectly. It was really a unforgettable experience.

2 sing前加to
3. doesn't→didn't
4. us → me
5. very →so
6. 去掉of
7. surprising→surprise
8. laugh→laughing
9. relaxing→relaxed

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇記敘文。文章主要講述作者初中時(shí)一次難忘的演出。
【詳解】第一處:考查名詞的數(shù)。句意:在我初中的一次演出中,許多同學(xué)選擇演奏樂(lè)器或講笑話,但我決定唱我最喜歡的歌曲。student為可數(shù)名詞,根據(jù)前面的many other修飾可知用復(fù)數(shù)形式。故將student改為students。
第二處:考查短語(yǔ)。句意:在我初中的一次演出中,許多同學(xué)選擇演奏樂(lè)器或講笑話,但我決定唱我最喜歡的歌曲。decide to do sth.決定做某事。故在sing前加to。
第三處:考查時(shí)態(tài)。句意:然而,這一天并沒(méi)有像我計(jì)劃的那樣進(jìn)行。根據(jù)全文時(shí)態(tài)可知,陳述過(guò)去事情,用一般過(guò)去時(shí)態(tài)。故將doesn't改為didn't。
第四處:考查代詞。句意:當(dāng)叫到我的名字時(shí),我走上了舞臺(tái)。突然,300個(gè)人都在看著我。根據(jù)前后邏輯和句意可知,這里指下面的觀眾看著“我”。故將us 改為 me。
第五處:考查固定句式。句意:我緊張得雙手發(fā)抖。so … that …如此……以至于……。故將very改為so。
第六處:考查動(dòng)詞。句意:我不記得這首歌的第一部分,所以根本就沒(méi)唱。動(dòng)詞remember為及物動(dòng)詞,后面直接接賓語(yǔ)。故去掉of。
第七處:考查固定短語(yǔ)。句意:使我吃驚的是,人們不但沒(méi)有嘲笑我,反而設(shè)法鼓勵(lì)我。to one’s + 抽象名詞形式。to one’s surprise令某人吃驚的是。故將surprising改為surprise。
第八處:考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。句意:使我吃驚的是,人們不但沒(méi)有嘲笑我,反而設(shè)法鼓勵(lì)我。instead of而不是,介詞of接動(dòng)名詞形式。故將laugh改為laughing。
第九處:考查形容詞。句意:我放松下來(lái),把剩下的部分唱得很完美。主語(yǔ)是人,此處表示人的感受,需用-ed結(jié)尾的形容詞。故將relaxing改為relaxed。
第十處:考查冠詞。句意:那真是一次難忘的經(jīng)歷。形容詞unforgettable發(fā)音為元音音素開(kāi)頭,所以用不定冠詞an。故將a改為an。

【答案】Possible version
Dear Mr. Johnson
Recently volunteers have conducted a survey about how the students spend their weekends.
As can be seen from the pie, among the surveyed students, about 51% of their time is spent on homework while online activities account for nearly 35%. Meanwhile, doing physical exercise takes up about 7% of their time, sharing the same percentage with reading books.
The survey certainly leaves me deep in thought. Too much homework leaves the students no time for physical exercise or reading, affecting their health and further development. Even worse, many of the surveyed waste much time online, some even addicted to computer games.
So more attention should be given to this case. Students should have more freedom to something more meaningful, rather than just doing boring repetitive exercises. Otherwise, it may have a negative effect on our future.
Yours,
Li Hua
