沈丘县长安高级中学 2022-2023 学年度下学期高三年级 第二次月考英语试卷 第一部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分 40 分） 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 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Wanted: “Golden taste buds” and a very sweet tooth What if you’ve got to eat candy all day for your job? There is a job that can include these duties, which is called being a “taste tester”. The Candy Funhouse is a candy company in Canada. Right now, it is hiring a taste tester. The job’s name is “chief candy officer”. Candy Funhouse put up an ad for the job. The ad says the chief candy officer will be in charge of “all things fun”, so it’s special. The person who gets this job will have to like eating candy. Do you know how much? More than 100 pieces a day on average! Even Kids Can Apply Many people think this job sounds pretty fun. The job is even open to kids! Are you 5 or older? Then you can apply! Do you want this job? If you say yes, you need “golden taste buds (味 蕾)”and “an obvious sweet tooth”, the ad says. You cannot be allergic to anything. You also need ideas about how to sell more candy, or how to make the candy better. The company wants someone with a great sense of taste, though it will also provide some training. This is because taste testers need to know a lot about food for their job. Taste Testing Isn’t Just Eating Candy As a taste tester for a candy company, you have to know how to talk about taste. You also have to understand different textures (口味). A texture is the way something feels when you eat it. For example, the texture of toast is sharp, firm and fresh. The texture of yoghurt is smooth. All in all, taste testers do more than eat candy. They should be aware of how to make sure their company has high-quality products.
