Ⅰ.阅读理解 A A British friend told me he couldn't understand why Chinese people love eating sunflower seeds as a snack so much.“I've met a lot of older Chinese and many have a crack in their front teeth; I believe that's from cracking the seeds，” he said. I had never noticed the habit, but once he mentioned it, I suddenly became more aware.I realized that whenever I'm watching TV or typing a report, I always start mindlessly cracking sunflower seeds.My friend doesn't like sunflower seeds, and, to him, it seems unnecessary to work so much just to get one small seed. When we were young, the whole family would usually get together for Chinese New Year.Then, we all lived close to one another, usually in a small city, and sometime even neighbors would go door­to­door on Chinese New Year's Eve to check out what every household was doing. I remember my parents would be in the kitchen cooking.Out in the living room, a large table would already be laid out, complete with fancy tablecloth, ready­made dumping fillings, and dishes full of candy, fruits and sunflower seeds.Some of the dishes were to be offered to our ancestors later, while others were for neighbors and children to eat before the evening feast.I must have learned how to crack sunflower seeds back then. I don't think it's right to criticize(批评) one's choice in food or eating habits, no matter how strange they may seem.It's not only in China.When I went to other countries, I found people had all sorts of strange habits when it came to food.In Denmark, they put salted red fish on bread and eat it for dinner, no matter how much it ruins your breath.They think it's a delicacy(美味佳肴), and it's connected to their certain culture.I think it's a wonderful tradition. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者在文章中通过讲述中国人喜欢嗑瓜子的习惯，告诉我们要尊重不同国家的不同饮食习惯，因为饮食习惯与特定的文化相关。 1．What did the writer become aware of? A．She had a habit of eating sunflower seeds. B．She had various snacks while watching TV. C．She didn't like to work to get sunflower seeds. D．She damaged her teeth by eating sunflower seeds. 解析　A　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“I had never noticed...became more aware.I realized that...I always started cracking sunflower seeds unconsciously”可知，听了朋友的话，作者突然意识到自己有一个习惯，在看电视或打报告时，总是无意识地嗑瓜子，由此可知，作者意识到了自己有嗑瓜子的习惯。 2．What does the writer prove by mentioning Chinese New Year? A．The families get together for it. B．The traditions of celebrating it disappear. C．Children can eat delicious food on that day. D．Eating sunflower seeds is related to this traditional festival. 解析　D　推理判断题。根据第四段内容可知，作者告诉我们葵花籽是中国新年时常备的零食，她一定是在那时学会了如何嗑瓜子，由此可知，作者提到中国新年证明了嗑瓜子与这一传统节日有关。 3．What is the writer's attitude to Denmark's way of eating bread? A．Doubtful.　 B．Negative. C．Understandable. D．Unconcerned. 解析　C　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“In Denmark，they put salted red fish on bread...it's connected to their certain culture.I think it's a wonderful tradition”可知，作者认为丹麦人吃面包的方式是可以理解的。 4．What can we infer from the last paragraph? A．It's good to form a healthy eating habit. B．Certain eating habits come from certain cultures. C．Changing your eating habits will change your life. D．One kind of food doesn't necessarily suit everyone. 解析　B　推理判断题。根据文章最后一段内容可知，作者通过该段想要表达的是特定的饮食习惯来自特定的文化。 B Alongside air and water, food is a necessity for human beings to survive.But it's a lot more than that.As Mariette DiChristina of Scientific American wrote：“The closest relationship we will ever have is not with any fellow human being.Instead, it is between our bodies and our food.” Nowadays, for most people in the world's richest countries, food is a hobby, an interest, and even something fashionable.Turn on the TV in the US, UK or France, and you'll find at least one channel feeding this popular obsession(痴迷).And most of us know at least one person who thinks of himself as a “foodie”．It's almost impossible nowadays to check our social media apps without at least two or three photos of delicious meals appearing on our screen—however annoying we may find it. But behind the fancy recipes and bragging(吹嘘) on social media, many of us forget how much we take food for granted.This is why World Food Day is held each year by the United Nations (UN) on Oct.16.The day allows the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization to stress both the progress that has been made against hunger, and the great amount of progress that still needs to be made.Take Kenya for example.This East African nation has been suffering terrible droughts.The result is that people are beginning to starve(挨饿)and children in particular are suffering.This may seem shocking, especially as many cultures outside of Africa think of food in a completely different way. So what can we do on World Food Day? One good way to spend it would be to feel humble and value what we have.After all, food is essential for our survival, but not everyone is as lucky as we are when it comes to dinner time. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了现如今人类与食物的关系，并介绍设立世界粮食日的原因，呼吁人们珍惜食物。 5．Why are Mariette DiChristina's words mentioned? A.To discuss a new problem in the food industry B．To point out the food shortage problem worldwide. C．To stress the connection between food and humans D．To show the importance of food for human survival 解析　C　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Alongside air and water, food is a necessity for human beings to survive.But it's a lot more than that”可知，食物不仅仅是人类生存的必需品。Mariette DiChristina 说的话中的“Instead, it is between our bodies and our food”进一步强调了人类和食物的关系。 6．What can be inferred about food shows on TV? A．They turn many people into foodies. B．They are very popular among viewers. C．They are replaced by social media apps. D．They often mislead people about food issues. 解析　D　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Nowadays，for most people in the world's richest countries...one channel feeding this popular obsession(痴迷)”可知，现如今最富裕的国家里大多人认为食物是一种兴趣爱好，甚至是流行的事物，而电视上的节目更是助长了这一情况，故这些节目在食物问题上误导了民众。 7．Why is World Food Day celebrated? A．To call on people to reduce food waste. B．To stress and popularize food cultures. C．To show the progress in achieving food safety. D．To raise awareness of the issues behind hunger. 解析　D　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The day allows the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization...still needs to be made”可知，这一节日强调了目前在对抗饥饿方面所取得的进步以及仍然需要取得的进步，这能让人意识到饥饿方面的问题，故选 D。 8．What does the author suggest people do in the last paragraph? A．Give more food to those in need. B．Share food with unlucky people. C．Feel grateful for the food we eat. D．Skip dinner sometimes to save food. 解析　C　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“One good way to spend it would be to feel humble and value what we have.”及“ not everyone is as lucky as we are when it comes to dinner time”可知，并不是每一个人都有幸吃上晚餐，我们要珍惜我们所拥有的，故选C。 Ⅱ.完形填空 For many people，barbecues are a chance to enjoy a meal with family and friends. 1 ，for Stan Hays，barbecuing is a passion that he puts to the 2 at weekend competitions. When disaster strikes，Hays uses his skills to 3 people in need.Since 2011，his non­profit organization，Operation BBQ Relief，has prepared more than 1.75 million meals for 4 ．The unique effort 5 in May 2011，when a terrible tornado hit Joplin，Missouri，about two­and­a­half hours' drive from Hays' home.His wife urged him to 6 ．So，he put over the 7 to his barbecue buddies (伙伴).“We 8 we'd be there three to four days，serving maybe 5，000 meals，”Hays said.“But the 9 was there.” Hays believes that the food they prepare keeps disaster survivors 10 both physically and mentally.“We are giving them not only something nutritious，but a state of being 11 ．” “For me，the 12 thing is people coming together.Seeing the people working and 13 the effect the meals are producing may bring a smile to your face，or a 14 to your eye.At the end of the day，you'll find you've done something that has made a 15 ，”said Hays.
