【題目】 I still remember my first time going to the Chinese company's canteen. When I stepped onto the elevator, each one was full of people. 1 However, there was no sign of fire and people were laughing and talking. I followed the flow of the crowd to the doors of the canteen. It occurred to me that in China everyone has lunch almost at the same time. 2The canteen followed this schedule, only being open a few hours per day.

When I stood in the doorway, I realized I had to act fast or I would be left behind. 3 Unlike my school lunchroom, here everyone lined up and took a tray, and instead of silverware there were chopsticks and soup spoons.

As I was pushed along the line, I saw dishes I didn't recognize and as people cut in line and picked up dishes left and right, 4 I ended up taking a pork and cucumber dish and a tofu salad.

I have been at my company for over a year and a half. 5 I have learned what dishes I like, mostly by trial and error, and a lot of the workers know me and say hello to me.

I am still getting used to eating lunch at "lunchtime", but I think the schedule definitely helps keep me on track during the day. I wish there were something like this at offices in my hometown.

A.I thought I had missed a fire drill.

B.There was no emergency; it was just lunchtime.

C.I noticed things at lunchtime were a bit different.

D.I felt that I needed to make some quick decisions.

E.The canteen reminded me of my school lunchroom.

F.And now I am glad to say I am more confident in the canteen.

G.I was not very familiar with the local food or restaurants in China.

【答案】

1A

2B

3E

4D

5F

【解析】

這是一篇記敘文。文章主要講述了作者第一次在中餐廳就餐的感受。

1根據(jù)后一句“However, there was no sign of fire and people were laughing and talking.(然而,并沒有著火的跡象,人們都有說有笑)”可知,設(shè)空處的內(nèi)容需說明一下為何提到“有著火的跡象”。A項(xiàng)“I thought I had missed a fire drill.(我本以為我錯(cuò)過了消防演習(xí))”解釋了為何作者會(huì)認(rèn)為應(yīng)該出現(xiàn)著火的情況。故選A項(xiàng)。

2根據(jù)前一句“It occurred to me that in China everyone has lunch almost at the same time.(我突然想起在中國每一個(gè)人幾乎都在同一時(shí)間吃午飯)”和后一句中“The canteen followed this schedule(餐廳遵守著這個(gè)時(shí)間表)”可知,作者已經(jīng)明白了為什么會(huì)有如此多的人。因此B項(xiàng)“There was no emergency; it was just lunchtime.(根本沒有什么緊急情況,只不過是午飯時(shí)間而已。)”符合語境。故選B項(xiàng)。

3根據(jù)后一句“Unlike my school lunchroom, here everyone lined up and took a tray, and instead of silverware there were chopsticks and soup spoons.(每個(gè)人排著隊(duì),拿著一個(gè)托盤,還有筷子和湯匙而不是銀餐具)”描述的是買飯時(shí)的場(chǎng)景,由此可知,E項(xiàng)“The canteen reminded me of my school lunchroom.(這個(gè)餐廳讓我想起我的學(xué)校的餐廳)”是對(duì)作者看到的餐廳場(chǎng)景的總結(jié),E項(xiàng)中的school lunchroom與句中呼應(yīng)。故選E項(xiàng)。

4根據(jù)上一句“As I was pushed along the line, I saw dishes I didn't recognize and as people cut in line and picked up dishes left and right.”描述的周圍人們?nèi)〔说膱?chǎng)景和下文中提到的“I ended up taking a pork and cucumber dish and a tofu salad.(我最終選擇了黃瓜炒肉和豆腐沙拉)”可知,設(shè)空處應(yīng)該與作者取午餐相關(guān)。D項(xiàng)“I felt that I needed to make some quick decisions.(我覺得我應(yīng)該快速作決定)”是對(duì)作者取到午餐前的心理描寫,符合語境。故選D項(xiàng)。

5根據(jù)設(shè)空前的“I have been at my company for over a year and a half.(我在公司已經(jīng)一年半多了)”以及設(shè)空后的“I have learned what dishes I like, mostly by trial and error, and a lot of the workers know me and say hello to me.(主要是通過反復(fù)摸索以后,我已經(jīng)知道了我喜歡吃什么菜,許多員工也認(rèn)識(shí)我了并且和我打招呼)”可知,該段的內(nèi)容是對(duì)作者熟悉在中企工作后的描寫。F項(xiàng)“And now I am glad to say I am more confident in the canteen.(現(xiàn)在我可以很高興地說我在餐廳更加自信了)”是對(duì)作者熟悉中餐廳后的描寫。故選F項(xiàng)。

【題目】 Old Mrs. Lynn was working in the cottage, hanging the washed clothes on the line. What she wasn’t aware was that some children were hiding in a nearby tree watching her every move. They were sure that she was a witch and wanted to find the evidence.

They watched nervously as she took a broomstick to sweep the dirt from her stone steps. But much to their disappointment, she didn’t get on the broomstick and fly off. The old lady only looked up when her hen began to make sounds loudly — signaling that she had laid an egg in the nest on the top of the haystack. (干草堆).

The old lady put aside her broomstick and walked to the haystack, followed by Michael, a black cat she had rescued from a fox trap. With only three legs, it was hard for Michael to keep up with his mistress. The cat was proof for the children that only a witch would own a black cat with three legs! Accidentally, she tripped and crashed to the ground. The children were in horror.

“Should we go and help her?” asked Mia.

“What if it’s a trick?” replied Patrick. “She probably knows we’re here. Witches know things like that!”

After thinking for a while, Julia said, “Anyway, we should go and check whether she is all right.”

Approaching prudently, they could see a wound on the old lady’s forehead. She had knocked her head on a stone and was unconscious.

“Go and get Dad,” Mia yelled to her brothers. “Tell him about the accident.”

Later, in the hospital, the old lady smiled her thanks. “I was so lucky that you lovely children happened to be passing when I fell. I must have yelled quite loudly.” The children exchanged guilty glances, but were very pleased that she was not a witch after all!

1Mrs. Lynn stopped sweeping when ________.

A.her doorstep became very clean

B.she heard the hen making sounds loudly

C.she noticed the children in the tree

D.her cat Michael managed to get her attention

2Why was Patrick not willing to help Mrs. Lynn when she fell?

A.He thought that she could be cheating them.

B.He was afraid of the three-legged black cat.

C.He did not think that she was hurt in the fall.

D.He knew he and the others shouldn’t have been in her tree.

3Which of the definitions is closest in meaning to the underlined word “prudently” ?

A.Slowly.B.Hurriedly.

C.Carefully.D.Quietly.

4What is the main idea of the story?

A.Constant dropping wears away a stone.

B.Never judge a book by its cover.

C.A friend in need is a friend indeed.

D.A good medicine tastes bitter.

【題目】 Influenza is an infection caused by flu viruses travelling through the air and entering the body through the nose or mouth. From October 2018 to early May 2019, up to 61,200 people died due to flu complications, while up to 647,000 people were hospitalized, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Despite similar symptoms, a cold is milder than the flu while flu symptoms develop more suddenly and severely and can impact your body above and below the neck. 1

Several factors can lead to Influenza. 2 You can catch the flu, breathing in these droplets, or touching objects such as doorknobs or keyboards that are contaminated with the virus and then touching your nose, or mouth. People under 4, or above 65 or with a weakened immune system are at greater risk of catching the flu.

Treatment without delay plays a dominant role. If you promptly see your doctor upon noticing symptoms, he or she may give you an antiviral drug, oseltamivir. 3“The best way to treat the flu is to rest, drink fluids and use any other remedies that best relieve your symptoms such as pain reliever for headaches and achy muscles.” says a professor of infectious diseases at Northwestern Memorial Hospital.

Prevention is better than defense.4 Experts widely agree that the single best way is to get the vaccine (疫苗) each year, which is appropriate for anyone 6 months and older. 5 Moreover, practicing good hygiene can prevent flu germs from spreading. Highly recommended are washing your hands, coughing or sneezing into a tissue, avoiding touching your nose and mouth, cleaning surfaces and objects like keyboards and telephones and avoiding crowded areas.

A.Approaches to flu vary from expert to expert.

B.You can escape catching influenza with some common-sense health practices.

C.When someone with the flu coughs or sneezes, droplets carrying the virus enter the air.

D.These can include fever, achy muscles, sore throat, cough, headache, chills, fatigue or vomiting.

E.The flu shot protects against the most common three or four flu viruses research indicates that year.

F.If taken within two days, the medicine can lessen symptoms and shorten the length of time you are sick by about a day.

G.To determine if you have the flu or a cold, your doctor will do a physical exam, ask about your symptoms, and possibly do a lab test.

【題目】Wanna soften the blow of a hangover?

A hangover refers to the headache and sick feeling that you have the day after drinking too much alcohol. If you are looking for something to nurse your hangover, you will find the following right ideas.

1. ASIAN PEAR JUICE

Have some extra Asian pears at home? Run them through your juicer before your next night out. According to researchers at Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, just 7.4 ounces of Asian pear juice is enough to soften the blow of a hangover. The scientists say that the juice interacts with enzymes that break down alcohol, speeding up your metabolism and leaving less surplus alcohol for your body to absorb. There’s just one catch: The juice must be consumed before you drink anything else in order to be effective.

2. MUSIC

Anyone who’s ever suffered through a massive hangover knows that sound is the enemy. But while your roommate’s 9 a.m. tap dancing practice might exacerbate (加劇) your symptoms, music may have the opposite effect. Research has shown that listening to music can provide relief to migraines, which are similar to hangover headaches. As long as the music is pleasant and suits your taste, it should help to drown out the chorus of pain laying in your mind. Head sensitivity isn’t the only symptom music helps with. According to researchers at the University of Edinburgh, listening to your favorite music also eases pain.

3. EGGS

The best way to tackle a hangover with food is to eat while you drink. Chowing down after the damage has already been done may distract you from your turmoil for a short while, but it won’t soothe your physical symptoms. There are a few exceptions: Eggs, for example, have hangover-fighting potential thanks to a special ingredient. The food is packed with cysteine, an amino acid that breaks down the drinking byproduct acetaldehyde (乙醛). So whether you prefer to enjoy brunch out or at home, make sure your meal includes eggs in some form.

1According to the passage, the author may agree with the following EXCEPT______.

A.Asian pear juice can help soften the blow of a hangover if you drink it before anything else.

B.Your roommate can make you suffer less from a hangover by practising tap dancing at 9.

C.Eggs are said to contain a special ingredient that may soothe the symptoms of a hangover.

D.Enjoying your favorite piece of music is an efficient way to fight the pain of a hangover.

2The passage is most probably taken from ______.

A.a textbookB.a science fiction

C.a health magazineD.an advertisement
