This year, some restaurants are encouraging people to order food using “N-1”. “N” stands for the number of diners at a table. If there are 6 people at your table, you should only order 5 dishes. In 2016, France passed a law that stops stores from throwing away unsold food. If it’s still safe to eat, the food must be given away to the charity (慈善机构); if not, it goes to farmers to feed animals. In 2019, the US said it encouraged food companies to use the phrase “best if used by” for date labeling (用标签标明). This helps shoppers better understand that they don’t need to throw food out after the printed date passes if the food is stored well. In 2016, South Korea started to ask people to pay for throwing away food. They will weigh the food wasted. One ton of food waste costs 1.5 million. 56. When there are 8 people at your table, you should order ________ dishes according to “N-1”. A. five B. six C. seven D. eight 57. When did food companies start to be encouraged to use “best if used by” for date labeling in the US? A. In 2013. B. In 2016. C. In 2019. D. In 2020. 58. In South Korea, how much should people pay for two tons of food? A. 1.5 million. B. 2 million. C. 2.5 million. D. 3 million. B I walked into a restaurant and ordered some food. After about 20 minutes, a large group of people came in and took their own orders. I felt angry because the group got served before me. I watched as they began to eat and laughed loudly. I heard one of them talking about how he knew someone who worked at the restaurant. Unable to stand it anymore, I decided to leave. I asked the waiter to cancel my order angrily. He told me nicely, “Yours is a special order. The head chef is preparing it himself. It will take a little more time. Please have a drink while you wait.” I calmed down and waited patiently. A few minutes later, my meal was served by six waiters. To my surprise, the owner of the restaurant was a long-lost friend of mine. He saw me walking in and decided to surprise me. He turned my simple meal into a five-star meal for free. The people at the other table were shocked and couldn’t stop looking at me. They asked angrily why they didn’t get that kind of service. Such is life! Some people go ahead of you, laughing at you and talking about how they are smarter, better and luckier than you, while you are working hard day and night, wondering why it’s taking so long for you to get reward (回报) like them. You just have to wait longer because your reward is more special. 59. Why did the writer feel angry at first? A. Because the group got served before him. B. Because the group had special service. C. Because the waiter canceled his order. D. Because the meal tasted really terrible. 60. The underlined word “He” in Paragraph 5 refers to “________”. A. The head chef B. The waiter of the restaurant C. One guest of the group D. The owner of the restaurant 61. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage? A. Laugh at other unlucky guests B. Waiting patiently for a rewarding life C. Have an unhappy experience D. My long-lost friend C What should we do if one of our classmates suddenly falls ill or gets hurt? Here are some steps about first aid you should follow. Broken bones (骨折): Take away clothing from the hurt. Use an ice pack. Don’t move the hurt body part while waiting for the doctor to arrive. Animal bites (咬伤): Wash the bite area with soap and water. Pack the hurt with a clean cloth if it is bleeding. If the bleeding has stopped, cover the area with a bandage and take the person to the hospital. Make sure you remember what kind of animal it is so the doctor can find the right way to treat him or her at once. Fainting (昏厥): Have him or her lie with feet lifted a little. Don’t move the body if you think there might be hurts from the fall. Make sure he or she can breathe and let in fresh air. Clean the person’s face with a cool cloth. Nosebleeds: Have the person sit up with his or her head tilted (倾斜) forward a little. Do not have the person tilt his or her head back because this may cause heavy breathing or coughing. Pinch (捏) the lower part of the nose for at least 10 minutes. Please always remember to look for medical care after first aid if the hurt is serious. 62. What should we do first when an animal bite happens? A. Put an ice pack on the hurt. B. Wash the bite area with soap and water. C. Try to stop the bleeding with a clean cloth. D.

D Jiqing Street in Wuhan is a good place to try local food and experience the everyday life of local people. Since Wuhan was unlocked on April 8, 2020, there have been many people lining up at snack shops there. In the evening, hundreds of street-side stalls (摊位) come out on the street and provide popular snacks and local food at low prices. Travelers can enjoy hot dry noodles, tasty chicken soup and Chinese dumplings. Don’t miss Jiujiu duck necks. Chi Li, a popular writer, tells a love story of a beautiful lady who sells duck necks in this street in her novel Life Show. Thousands of people come to search for the scenes (场景) in the novel. Local people like to order several best-known dishes and some bottles of beer and spend their evening time with friends there. For travelers, another exciting thing is the folk music performed by folk musicians at your table. You can enjoy delicious food when listening to music.

A. a travel website B. a history book C. a science magazine D. a dictionary E Walls have played a very important part in Chinese culture. In ancient times, walls took up an important place in each village. Besides towns and villages, the houses and the temples had walls around them. In Chinese, the name for “city” means wall. People built it to protect themselves from danger. Of course it’s necessary to have such a long and tall wall around the whole country. The Great Wall is a symbol of country to all Chinese, and it can stand for China. However, it is wrong to regard the Great Wall as a single building. It has experienced several different dynasties in its building process. Each dynasty did some jobs for the great wonder. Many years ago, people started to build their own walls to protect their country against the enemies. All the walls weren’t connected together until Qing Dynasty. The Great Wall also makes a big difference to ancient China’s economy. Lots of people lived along both its sides. They formed a small town or city and started to find some new lands and plant crops on them. All these greatly helped to increase the country’s trade and cultural exchanges with other countries nearby. And it gave birth to the Silk Road. 69. Where can we see a wall according to the passage? A. Around a river. B. Around a hill. C. Around a house. D. Around a forest. 70. What might ancient Chinese build the wall to protect from? A. Strangers. B. Illnesses. C. Storms. D. Enemies. 71. What does the underlined word “economy” mean in Chinese? A. 经济 B. 科技 C. 医疗 D. 教育 72. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Ancient Chinese started to build the Great Wall in Qing Dynasty. B. Ancient Chinese built the Great Wall to make it the symbol of China. C. The Great Wall had nothing to do with the culture in ancient China. D. Lots of people lived and worked near the Great Wall in the past. F A bird went far to look for happiness. It saw a dying flower smile happily and asked, “You’re dying. Why are you still happy?” “Because I will achieve my dream.” said the flower. “What’s it?” the bird asked. “To produce fruit.” answered the flower. Then the little bird saw it: Happiness is hope in the heart. The bird continued flying and saw a lame (跛腿的) duck sing a song cheerfully. “You’re unlucky. How could you be happy?” asked the bird. “Because I helped a little duck stand up.” said the lame duck. So the bird saw it: Happiness is love in the heart. The bird kept flying and saw a spider climb a wall excitedly. It fell off the wall several times, but didn’t give up. The bird asked in surprise, “You failed many times. Don’t you feel sad?” The spider explained, “As long as I keep on trying, I’m sure to climb up the wall. Thinking of that, I’m happy.” The bird saw it: Happiness is faith in the heart.
