第一节 (共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
It won’t be wrong to say that the hotel industry is one of the most competitive fields, and to survive in the hotel business, restaurateurs (餐馆老板) need to have certain unique strategies. To be more specific, to excel(突出)in the business, hotel owners need to follow a few things like, keeping a few secrets from customers, telling them half the truth, and at times even lying and pretending about certain things.
Calories in a dish
In the first place, the calorie count of a particular dish is seldom mentioned on the menu, and when it’s mentioned, most times it is inaccurate. Also, the waiters are not a llowed to say anything about the calories in a dish and they either lie about it or just say, “All the information about it is available online.”
Extra sugar in your kids’ meals
You may wonder why your kid wants to go to the same restaurant every time, where he once had a particular pizza. Many restaurants often apply the trick of adding extra sugar to the kids’ meals so that they love it more and insist on going to the same place again and again.
“Homemade” salad is actually ready-made
Salads often labeled as “homemade” on the menu are not homemade. Some restaurants purchase salad dressings(沙拉酱) in large quantities and then add a few ingredients like fresh herbs, blue cheese, etc., and serve them as the homemade salad.
A last tip before you go, make sure that you never ask your waiter for recommendation s from the menu. Waiters will never criticize anything that they serve, and in fact, may often do the opposite. At times, they may even recommend dishes that are expensive, or dishes that are not selling well.
These are some of the things that waiters will not share with you when you go to a restaurant. While most of these should not matter, you should never go to a restaurant that does not take cleanliness and hygiene(卫生) strictly.
21. According to the passage, the calorie count of a dish on the menu_________.
A. is not correct B. is the exact fact C. is healthy for customers D. can also be found online 22. How do restaurants make ready-made salads look like homemade salads?
A. They make them look clean. B. They add fresh salad dressings.
2 / 8
C. They make salad dressings delicious. D. They add fresh herbs, blue cheese, etc. 23. If a waiter recommends a dish to you, ________.
A. you can accept it gladly B. it means you will get a discount C. you should think about it carefully D. it means the dish isn’t selling well 24. The author writes the passage mainly to __________.
A. tell us how to choose the right restaurants B. show us some of the secrets of restaurants C. advise us to eat less in restaurants D. tell us how restaurants survive B
“I like photography because it captures amazing things that you might not see again,” Timmy Walsh says. He takes pictures of flowers, sunsets and road signs. But those photos don’t usually end up in a scrapbook(剪贴簿) or on his bedroom walls.
When Timmy was five, he found out that his aunt Bev had lung cancer. He wanted to do something to help her. His first idea was to sell his photos from a lemonade--type stand in front of his house in Pennsylvania. “My mom said it wouldn’t work because we were not on a busy street,” Timmy explains.
His next idea was to have an art show. Timmy decorated his home with candles, flowers, and white lights. Then he arranged his photos. Timmy’s mom, Sheila, remembers: “Our dining-room table was filled, the living room--everything was filled with photos.” Friends, family, and Timmy’s teachers came to the show. He raised more than $3 00 for cancer research that night. Aunt Bev was “very happy and excited ,”he says.
After a local newspaper wrote a story about Timmy’s photos, a volunteer offered to help him set up a website. As people learned about his cause, called Camera for a Cure, Timmy began receiving invitations to sell his pictures at art galleries and fund-raisers. Since then, his work has appeared in more than 20 shows.
When Timmy is at a show, he greets each customer and talks about what he was thinking when he took his photos. And he always shares facts about lung cancer. Sometimes donations and sales are slow, but that doesn’t bother him. “It doesn’t matter how much money we made because we just raised awareness,” he says. Timmy knows that finding a cure for lung cancer will take time and effort. So Timmy will keep doing his part by shooting and selling photos of the things he sees.
25. Before Timmy started Camera for a Cure, he__________.
A. always sold lemonade in front of his house. B. liked making scrapbooks by using his photos. C. had developed a deep interest in photography. D. had been providing photos for a local newspaper.
26.What can we learn about the art show Timmy held at his home?
A. It was generally popular. B. It cost $300 to organize it. C. It was funded by Aunt Bev. D. It was advertised on a website. 27. For Timmy, what’s the benefit of selling his photos at art galleries?
A.Raising money more quickly. B.Improving his photographic skills C.Exchanging ideas with other artists. D.Increasing public awareness of lung cancer. 28. Which of the following can best describe Timmy?
A. Proud and confident. B. Imaginative but cautious. C. Generous but self-centered. D. Determined and warm-hearted . C
Madrid has ordered nearly half of the private cars off the roads on Thursday to deal with the worsening air pollution, a first in Spain.
3 / 8
The restriction (限令) will operate between 6.30 a.m. and 9 p.m. every day. The city government said in a statement: “Vehicles with even-number registration plates (偶数牌照）will be allowed to drive around on even-number days and the rest cars on the rest days.”
The measure works when levels of harmful NO2 in the atmosphere go above 200 microgrammes in every 1 in at least two measuring stations for two days running, and if the air is unlikely to clear soon.
On Thursday, the city environment officer Ines Sabanes said the restriction would not be carried out as pollution levels had dropped by the required amount. Other measures, including a ban on street parking for non-local vehicles and reduced speed limits, will continue. There are exceptions to the restriction, such as for hybrid (混合动力的) cars, those carrying three people or more or used by disabled people. Buses, taxis and emergency vehicles are not encompassed, either. “It’s not about traffic restrictions but about the important issue of public health,” deputy mayor Marta Higueras said. “Lots of people suffer from breathing problems and are very affected by pollution.”
With 3.2 million people and 1.8 million cars, Madrid often suffers from bad pollution. The move to ban half of the cars is Level Three on a series of four measures to prevent pollution. Level Four bans taxis from the city, except those that are hybrid cars.
The previous measures carried out by the city hall draw criticism from the Popular Party(PP) which ruled Madrid for nearly a quarter of a century and governs at the national level. The PP spokesman in Madrid’s local parliament said officials should do more to encourage people to avoid using their cars rather than punish them. The previous measures were carried out by former PP leader Ana Botella just before municipal elections (市政府选举) in Many 2015.
29. According to the statement of the city government, __ _______.
A. the restriction only works by day
B. the restriction only works on private cars
C. every restricted car is restricted nearly half a month in a whole month D. Vehicles are restricted depending on the first number of registration plates 30. According to the passage, vehicles driven from other cities will not be ______.
A. allowed to drive on Madrid’s streets B. included in the new restrictions at all C. restricted if pollution levels drop D. allowed to park on Madrid’s streets 31. What does the underlined word “encompassed” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Punished. B. Encouraged. C. Accepted. D. Included. 32. If the air pollution in Madrid becomes worse, _______.
A. the government will punish more people B. more cars will be kept out of the roads C. new traffic restrictions will be carried out D. more hybrid cars will appear on the road
D
Seamounts are mountains, usually volcanoes, which rise up from the sea floor. Some of the volcanoes are extinct; some are sill active. But they are hard to find because they do not reach the surface of the water. Scientists say seamounts cover nearly 29 million square kilometers of this planet under the sea. Marine (海洋的) life gathers at seamounts because they carry nutrient-rich water upward from the sea floor.
In September, 2016, a group of scientists set out to explore Cook Seamount which rises almost 4,000 meters from the Pacific Ocean floor about 160 kilometers off the island of Hawaii. Humans have never seen it up close before.
Three people went in a submarine (潜水艇) down to over 900 meters below the ocean surface to the top of the seamount. As the blue waters became darker, underwater creatures that chemically create their own light began to
