As is known to all, “No farmers, no food.” Well, we now have a new day of celebration,the Chinese Farmers’ Harvest (收获) Festival. It’s the first in China created especially for farmers.
“The Chinese Farmers’ Harvest Festival falls on the Autumnal Equinox (秋分) each year, starting in 2018,” said Han Changfu, the Minister of Agriculture. The Autumnal Equinox is one of the 24 solar terms in the traditional Chinese calendar. In 2018, the Autumnal Equinox fell on September 23, one day before the Mid-Autumn Festival.Itgives people in the city a great chance to travel to the countryside, enjoy the beautiful scenery and celebrate the harvest with farmers. Although climates and crops are different in many parts of China, the harvest time is usually in autumn. This is why the government decided to celebrate this festival on the Autumnal Equinox.
As a major agricultural country, China has the largest number of farmers in the world. And it can produce a large number of agricultural products every year. “I’m sure the festival will become one of the most popular and most important ones around the world,” Han said.
Shen Jianhua, a university professor, says farmers should have a special festival since they have made great contributions to our country. Setting up the festival can improve the position (地位) of farmers, increase their selfesteem (自尊) and create an environment where they are respected and valued.
4. Which day is the Mid-Autumn Festival in 2018?
A. September 24th. B. September 23rd. C. The same day as the Autumnal Equinox.
5. The underlined word “It” refers to “________”.
A. the country China
B. the MidAutumn Festival
C. the Chinese Farmers’ Harvest Festival
6. The festival is held on the Autumnal Equinox because ________ at that time.
A. it’s neither hot nor cold B. most crops are harvested C. farmers want to have a rest
7 Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. To respect and value farmers.
B. To give farmers more money to make them rich.
C. To improve the position of farmers and increase farmers’ selfesteem.
C
If you bought some bread months ago but never ate it, how can you tell whether it is still safe to eat? The common way is to check the “use-by date”. If that date has already passed, you’re likely to throw the bread away. But is that really necessary?
According to a new report from the US Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), tons of food is wasted each year, largely because people don’t fully understand what “use-by dates” actually mean.
Food dating was introduced in the 1970s because consumers wanted more information about the things that they were eating. When they first showed up, use-by dates were only supposed to show freshness because producers wanted their products to be tasted in their best conditions.
But the truth is that these dates aren’t related to the risk of food illness, according to Times News. However, most customers misunderstood use-by dates and related them to the safety of the food, and they still largely do now. Eggs, for example, can still be eaten three to five weeks after selling even though the use-by date is much earlier. When their use-by dates pass, strawberry drinks may lose their red color and biscuits may lose their crunch (松脆), but they are not harmful.
This is why scientists are calling for a standard explanation to be printed following the use-by dates. “We want this to be clearly communicated so customers are not misunderstanding and causing a lot of waste,” said Dana Ganders, a staff scientist with the NRDC. But this will be a problem that is difficult to solve because people have believed it for so long. Another problem is that the quality levels of different foods change differently—some are still safe to eat long after their use-by date while others are not.
As a result, food industry officials are now thinking of changing the use-by date to a date indicating (指示) when food is most likely to go bad.
8. Why was the first use-by date introduced?
A. To give a warning of food illness.
B. To show the safety of food.
C. To tell the freshness of food.
9. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Most customers understand what use-by dates mean.
B. “Use-by dates” have existed for more than 60 years.
C. Even after their use-by dates pass, some foods are still safe to eat.
10. What might be the opinion of Dana Ganders?
A. It’s helpful to print an explanation of use-by dates for customers.
B. Communicating with customers about the use-by dates is not necessary.
C. Printing an explanation of use-by date will not help reduce food waste.
11 Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? (P=Paragraph )
A. B. C.

第四部分 综合技能(共两节,满分25分)
第一节(共5小题,每题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答1-3小题,翻译4-5小题。
Do you know how many tons of plastic are produced by humans every year? The number may make you surprised. In order to cut down on the huge amount (数量) of plastic waste, people are looking for environmentally friendly water bottles.
Ari Jonsson is a student from Iceland. 4.他有一个明智的方法来解决这个问题。He came up with the idea of creating a kind of bottle that can break down easily. The bottle is made from a material that, unlike plastic, doesn’t leave a lasting problem behind once it has been used. It is a kind of powder (粉末) made from the algae (藻类), a kind of plant in the water. When the powder is added to water, it can turn into a special material. Then you can make it into different shapes. According to the designer, the bottle will keep that shape until the water in it is drunk up. 5. As soon as the bottle is empty, it will start to break down.
Later, scientists found the idea was a good method. The use of the algae-based (以藻类为主) bottles promises lots of environmental benefits. First, it can greatly reduce the plastic waste that pollutes the oceans and harms sea animals. Second, its material has the ability to cut down the greenhouse gas emissions (温室气体排放). Finally, the algae can be used many times, which can help create a more environmentally friendly future.
Although the algae-based bottles have a bright future, challenges still remain. There is a long way to go for the bottle to be widely used. However, with the development of technology, these challenges will be quickly dealt with.
36. What will happen if the powder is added to water?
______________________________________________________________________________
37. How many benefits are mentioned about the algae-based bottles in the passage?
______________________________________________________________________________
38. What do you think of the future of the algae-based bottles?

第四部分 综合技能(共两节,满分25分)
第一节(共5小题,每题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答1-3小题,翻译4-5小题。
Do you know how many tons of plastic are produced by humans every year? The number may make you surprised. In order to cut down on the huge amount (数量) of plastic waste, people are looking for environmentally friendly water bottles.
Ari Jonsson is a student from Iceland. 4.他有一个明智的方法来解决这个问题。He came up with the idea of creating a kind of bottle that can break down easily. The bottle is made from a material that, unlike plastic, doesn’t leave a lasting problem behind once it has been used. It is a kind of powder (粉末) made from the algae (藻类), a kind of plant in the water. When the powder is added to water, it can turn into a special material. Then you can make it into different shapes. According to the designer, the bottle will keep that shape until the water in it is drunk up. 5. As soon as the bottle is empty, it will start to break down.
Later, scientists found the idea was a good method. The use of the algae-based (以藻类为主) bottles promises lots of environmental benefits. First, it can greatly reduce the plastic waste that pollutes the oceans and harms sea animals. Second, its material has the ability to cut down the greenhouse gas emissions (温室气体排放). Finally, the algae can be used many times, which can help create a more environmentally friendly future.
Although the algae-based bottles have a bright future, challenges still remain. There is a long way to go for the bottle to be widely used. However, with the development of technology, these challenges will be quickly dealt with.
36. What will happen if the powder is added to water?
______________________________________________________________________________
37. How many benefits are mentioned about the algae-based bottles in the passage?
______________________________________________________________________________
38. What do you think of the future of the algae-based bottles?
______________________________________________________________________________

【答案】36. It will turn into a special material. 37. Three.
38. They have a bright future but challenges still remain.
39. He has a wise way to solve this problem.
40. 瓶子一空,它就会开始分解。
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。为了解决塑料的污染问题,冰岛的一名学生——琼森发明了一种以藻类为主的易分解的瓶子。
【36题详解】
根据“When the powder is added to water, it can turn into a special material.”可知,当粉末加入水中时,它会变成一种特殊的材料。故填It will turn into a special material.
【37题详解】
根据“First, it can greatly reduce the plastic waste that pollutes the oceans and harms sea animals. Second, its material has the ability to cut down the greenhouse gas emissions. Finally, the algae can be used many times, which can help create a more environmentally friendly future.”可知,这种材料有三点好处:减少塑料污染、减少温室气体排放和可循环利用。故填Three.
【38题详解】
根据“Although the algae-based bottles have a bright future, challenges still remain.”可知,这种以藻类为主的瓶子有一个光明的未来,但挑战仍然存在。故填They have a bright future but challenges still remain.
【39题详解】
分析中文句子可知,本句为肯定陈述句,时态为一般现在时。第三人称单数He“他”作主语,谓语动词have“有”要用三单形式has;不定冠词a表示泛指,形容词wise“明智的”作定语修饰名词way“方法”;to solve this problem“来解决这个问题”,不定式短语表示目的,指示代词this修饰problem。故填He has a wise way to solve this problem.
【40题详解】
分析英文句子可知,本句为as soon as引导的时间状语从句,主句为一般将来时,从句为一般现在时。as soon as“一……就”;the bottle“瓶子”作从句主语;is“是”;形容词empty“空的”作表语;it“它”作主句主语;will start“将开始”,start to do sth“开始做某事”;break down“分解,降解”。故填:瓶子一空,它就会开始分解。
