It’s reported that scientists in London have found the best diet for both humans and the planet.
If the world followed the so-called “planetary health” diet, each year more than ll million early deaths could be avoided according to the scientists. For the health of the planet, they say the same diet will reduce (减少) greenhouse gases and save more land, water and animals. This new food plan is the result of a three-year project organized by The Lancet health journal.
Tim Lang, a professor at Britain’s University of London. He said, “The food we eat and how we produce it decide the health of people and the planet.” Lang added, The world’s population is expected to grow to 10 billion people by 2050. If we want to feed everyone, we all need to change what we eat and the way we eat by improving food production and reducing food waste”. So, what do you eat on the “planetary health” diet?
The scientists who created the “planetary health” diet say it is largely plant-based but still has a little milk, fish and meat. The diet calls for cutting down red meat and sugar by 50 percent and increasing nuts, fruits, and vegetable.
Walter Willet of Harvard University in the United States also talked about the “planetary health” diet. He said, “More than 800 million people around the world do not get enough food while many more people have very unhealthy diets.”
The scientists think it difficult to reach their aim. But for them, doing nothing is also not a choice Willet said, “If we can’t make the best diet, it’s better to try and get as close as we can.”
4. What decides the health of people and the planet according to Tim Lang?
A. The taste of the food.
B. The number of population.
C. The climate and our living conditions.
D. The food we eat and the way we produce it.

C. Sugar. D. Plants.

A. It is very easy to produce it.
B. It is better to try their best to make it.
C. It is better to do nothing than fail.
D. It is impossible to make it.
7. What is the best title for the text?

C. A New Kind of diet may Save the Plane.
D. Different People have Different Eating Habits.

What a day! I started at my new school this morning and had the best time. I made lots of new friends and really liked my teachers. I was nervous the night before, but I had no reason to be. Everyone was so friendly and polite. They made me feel at ease. It was like I’d been at the school for a hundred years!
The day started very early at 7:00 am. I had my breakfast down stairs with my mom. She could tell that I was very nervous. Mom kept asking me what was wrong. She told me I had nothing to worry about and that everyone was going to love me. If they didn’t love me, Mom said to send them her way for a good talking to. I couldn’t stop laughing.
My mom dropped me off at the school gates about five minutes before the bell. A little blonde(金发的) girl got dropped off at the same time and started waving(招手) at me. She ran over and told me her name was Abigail. She was very nice and we became close straight away. We spent all morning together and began to talk to another girl called Stacey. The three of us sat together in class all day and we even made our way home together! It went so quickly. Our teacher told us that tomorrow we would really start learning and developing new skills.

You may not know a lot of people when you start high school. Even if you know some freshmen (新生) , you still feel nervous that you don't know any upperclassmen or teachers. How are you going to make friends among this sea of unknown faces?
Most high schools hold a freshman orientation before school actually starts, which is helpful not only because you can know your way around the building and get to meet some of your teachers, but also because you get to meet fellow freshmen. That way, when you show up on your first day of school, you may already recognise a few familiar faces. When you talk to your new classmates, you'll probably find that a lot of them are feeling just like you are. They're all new to the school and don't know what to expect. Talking about a common concern with them can help you develop friendships.
The work in high school is something that freshmen are probably worried about. The work in high school builds on what you learnt in middle school giving you a more advanced knowledge of many subjects. So you may find you have more work to do or that it's a bit more challenging. If you ever find your work too difficult, teachers can give you extra help.
High school also has more extracurricular activities than middle school does such as clubs, music and theatre groups and sports teams. This is a good time to explore your interests and try new things.
High school gives you the chance to learn how to manage your time, to develop your social skills and interests, and more importantly to be more independent and responsible.
12. What does the underlined word “orientation” mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Training. B. Game.
C. Discussion. D. Examination.
13. What are freshmen probably worried about?
A. The learning task. B. The ability to make friends.
C. The relationship with teachers. D. The freshman orientation.
14. Extra-curricular activities mainly help students ________.
A. build up healthy bodies B. develop friendships
C. develop the interests D. improve their learning ability
15. Who is this passage written for?
A. Freshmen at high school. B. Freshmen's parents.
C. Middle school students. D. Upperclassmen in high school.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It seemed I’d done everything I’d ever wanted to do in my life, but I had one regret. I was born in 1898, the oldest of five kids. Papa couldn’t spare me to go to school, so I worked in the fields with him till I was 21 years old.
Everywhere I went, I learned some hard lessons about what happens to a man who even can’t read the alphabet. People cheat you out of wages. They sell you a ticket to one city, take your money and hand you a ticket to somewhere else.
By 1928, I’d been wandering for nine years. I met a woman named Elzenia. We fell in love, married and moved to Dallas, where I got work fixing roads for the city. When Amelia, the oldest of our seven children, first went to school, I took my wife aside. “Elzenia,” I said. “I don’t want the kids to know I can’t read or write.”
In 1938, one day my boss called me in. “George,” he said. “No one knows those machines like you do. I’d like to promote you.” But my thrill and surprise were cut short when he said, “Fill out this application and we’ll get you a raise.” I couldn’t admit the truth. I thanked him and walked out of his office. I did stay right where I was, until I turned 65 and my boss made me retire. But I didn’t stop working. For the next 25 years, I lived a happy life, but it still seemed to me like something was missing.
A young fellow handed me a piece of paper. It’s information about adult education classes. People can learn to read and write. Now I’m 102. I thought of my friends and neighbours and what they might think if they found out I couldn’t read. After all these years, my secret would be out. But all my life I’ve wanted to read. It was high time for action.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1
The young man drove me to a huge building and led me into a spacious classroom, which was crowded with elderly people like me.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2
I’m still going to school.

【4题详解】
细节理解题。由题干中的Tim Lang可将本题答案定位在第三自然段。由其中的“The food we eat and how we produce it decide the health of people and the planet.(我们所吃的食物以及我们制作食物的方式决定了人类和地球是否健康。)”可知,是我们所吃的食物以及我们制作食物的方式决定了人类和地球是否健康。故选D。

【点睛】主旨大意题是篇章阅读一个主要的考察方式,标题题(best title)是其一个典型的考点,也是高考阅读中每年的必考题。主旨大意题解题技巧是不要被文章细节所干扰。一般有两种方式解题:一是看首尾段,根据首尾段内容总结主题思想;二是看每段段首句,根据所有段首句总结主题思想。例如本文中的第四题,就是标题题。这是一篇说明文,文章一开始就说明了本文谈论的主题:一种极好的饮食方式。剩下段落都是对它的解释。故选C。

So you may find you have more work to do or that it's a bit more challenging. If you ever find your work too difficult, teachers can give you extra help.
High school also has more extracurricular activities than middle school does such as clubs, music and theatre groups and sports teams. This is a good time to explore your interests and try new things.
High school gives you the chance to learn how to manage your time, to develop your social skills and interests, and more importantly to be more independent and responsible.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It seemed I’d done everything I’d ever wanted to do in my life, but I had one regret. I was born in 1898, the oldest of five kids. Papa couldn’t spare me to go to school, so I worked in the fields with him till I was 21 years old.
Everywhere I went, I learned some hard lessons about what happens to a man who even can’t read the alphabet. People cheat you out of wages. They sell you a ticket to one city, take your money and hand you a ticket to somewhere else.
By 1928, I’d been wandering for nine years. I met a woman named Elzenia. We fell in love, married and moved to Dallas, where I got work fixing roads for the city. When Amelia, the oldest of our seven children, first went to school, I took my wife aside. “Elzenia,” I said. “I don’t want the kids to know I can’t read or write.”
In 1938, one day my boss called me in. “George,” he said. “No one knows those machines like you do. I’d like to promote you.” But my thrill and surprise were cut short when he said, “Fill out this application and we’ll get you a raise.” I couldn’t admit the truth. I thanked him and walked out of his office. I did stay right where I was, until I turned 65 and my boss made me retire. But I didn’t stop working. For the next 25 years, I lived a happy life, but it still seemed to me like something was missing.
A young fellow handed me a piece of paper. It’s information about adult education classes. People can learn to read and write. Now I’m 102. I thought of my friends and neighbours and what they might think if they found out I couldn’t read. After all these years, my secret would be out. But all my life I’ve wanted to read. It was high time for action.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1
The young man drove me to a huge building and led me into a spacious classroom, which was crowded with elderly people like me.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2
I’m still going to school.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1
The young man drove me to a huge building and led me into a spacious classroom which was crowded with elderly people like me. Through chatting, I learned that they had all been longing to read and write but never had the chance to go to school. As the bell rang, in came the teacher, a woman well past forty. After a warm and brief greeting, we started our lesson. First we learned to read the alphabet and though I made mistakes at times, on one laughed at me. Everyone helped each out with open-hearted enjoyment.
Paragraph 2
I’m still going to school. Though faced with the most challenging event of my life, I’m full of courage and confidence. With the generous help of my teacher, friends and my children, I have made huge progress in my study. Now I’m never shy about admitting the truth that once I was not able to read and write at all. Besides, I’m eager to encourage more elderly people to attend the adult education classes, because it’s never too late to learn.
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者由于小时候生活贫穷,没有被送去上学读书,成年后养家艰辛也没有时间学习读书和写字,所以似乎一辈子都要隐瞒自己没有读过书的事实。后来,作者去学习了成人教育课程。在那里,作者和同龄人一起学习,收获了进步,信心和勇气。这让作者意识到:活到老,学到老。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“The young man drove me to a huge building and led me into a spacious classroom, which was crowded with elderly people like me.(这个年轻人开车把我带到一座巨大的建筑前,把我带进一间宽敞的教室,里面挤满了像我这样的老人。)”可知,第一段可描写作者进入教室后的感受和老师教授的课程。
②由第二段首句内容“I’m still going to school.(我还在上学。)”可知,第二段可描写作者为什么还在坚持上学,获得的益处和激励。
2.续写线索:进教室后与人交流——介绍老师——学习内容——课后感受——上学后的感想——感慨自己的进步——鼓励其他人
3.词汇激活
行为类
①交流/聊天:chat/talk/communicate
②开始:start/begin/set about
③嘲笑:laugh at/make fun of/sneer at
④承认:admit/recognize/acknowledge
情绪类
①困难的:challenging/difficult/tough
②慷慨的/好心的:generous/kind
【点睛】[高分句型1]. Through chatting, I learned that they had all been longing to read and write but never had the chance to go to school. (由连接词that引导的宾语从句作learned的宾语)
[高分句型2]. As the bell rang, in came the teacher, a woman well past forty.(由方位副词in置于句首,构成全部倒装句式)
[高分句型3]. Now I’m never shy about admitting the truth that once I was not able to read and write at all.(“that once I was not able to read and write at all”为that引导的“truth”的同位语从句)
