So to help you get a better understanding of just some of the choices available, here’s our guide to buying a new BBQ.Charcoal vs Gas The first decision is how your BBQ is going to be powered. There are essentially two main choices: the traditional way with charcoal, or the quick and convenient way with gas. For those who get frustrated with the process of lighting coals and waiting for them to reach the desired temperature, then gas is the easy option. It’s clean and gets up to temperature in an instant. But for many, the main fun of a barbecue lies in the back-to-basics cooking that hot coal brings natural barbecue fire. You’ll also find a far greater range of charcoal barbecues.Size For anyone who likes to throw a garden party with a busy barbecue at the centre of the action, there are some vast grills (烤架) available. But unless you’re regularly feeding the masses, then these BBQ beasts can be impractical. Smaller meals are better suited to smaller equipment, so be realistic about the size that best suits you.Open grill or lid While facing the barbecue selection of your nearest retailer, you’ll notice that some of them have lids. These will usually be round and will make you pay more than the lidless options. But if you want the benefit of being able to cook larger items over a longer period of time, such as a whole chicken, then a lid will be essential. 1．Which BBQ is suitable for Jack, who likes back-to-basics cooking and often invites friends to the garden party? A．Gas barbecue in small size. B．Gas barbecue in big size. C．Charcoal barbecue with big grills. D．Charcoal barbecue with small grills. 2．What is the difference between the open grill and the one with a lid? A．The open grill costs more. B．The open grill looks superior. C．The open grill is more reliable. D．The open grill is less suitable for larger items. 3．Which column of the magazine is the passage most likely selected from? A．Lifestyle. B．Business. C．Culture. D．Sports. （22-23高二上·江苏徐州·期中）The air gets a little thinner and the cold begins to wrap around us as fall leaves and winter arrives. Some people regard winter as a goodbye to their favorite outdoor sports. However, there are plenty of winter outdoor activities that transcend all seasons. Climbing Some climbers say that winter climbing and summer climbing are completely different sports. The snow, ice, and cold has the tendency to turn one terrain (地形) into something completely different than it is in the warmer months. As with any other change in temp and terrain, you’ll need gear (设备) and expectations that make sense for the conditions. Plan for the weather getting worse, pack hot liquids, bring all extreme winter climbing supplies-even if the terrain isn’ t expected to need it, layer your clothes, and turn back if you need to. Winter climbing offers more different experiences and views than climbing in warmer months. Cycling No matter what type of cycling you’re into, whether it is mountain biking or commuting to work, you can turn it into an all - season activity. Just like anything else, it simply requires some modification ( 改进). Wearing more layers is important, but not so many that you’ll be sweating after a few minutes peddling. A good base layer, gloves, boots, and a head covering will make you plenty comfortable in the cooler temperatures. Running Seasonal Affective Disorder is a condition in which people can feel depressed and fatigued in the winter months as a result of the body’s lack of sunlight. Some people can combat this issue with light therapy. Another way to fight the winter blues is to do some exercise. Continuing to run outside is one way to soak in as much sunlight in your workout as you can. More layers and better shoes may be all you need to turn your warm weather month sport into a cold weather sport as well. In fact, many runs and marathons take place in cooler months. Just be aware of the thinner air and how it can affect your breathing as well as your muscles. However, don’t let a little cold keep you from enjoying a run with a beautiful snowy backdrop. 1．What should you prepare when climbing in winter? A．Hot liquids. B．A head covering. C．Boots. D．Thin clothes. 2．What does the underlined word “fatigued” in the fourth paragraph mean? A．Excited. B．Warm. C．Tired. D．Frightened. 3．What’s the purpose of the text? A．To show the benefit of climbing. B．To recommend some good winter sports. C．To warn people of the danger of winter sports. D．To tell the difference between winter and summer sports. （22-23高二上·江苏南通·期中）The dazzling beauty of abandoned cinemas Old and historical cinemas are all around us and yet so unnoticed.

So to help you get a better understanding of just some of the choices available, here’s our guide to buying a new BBQ.Charcoal vs Gas The first decision is how your BBQ is going to be powered. There are essentially two main choices: the traditional way with charcoal, or the quick and convenient way with gas. For those who get frustrated with the process of lighting coals and waiting for them to reach the desired temperature, then gas is the easy option. It’s clean and gets up to temperature in an instant. But for many, the main fun of a barbecue lies in the back-to-basics cooking that hot coal brings natural barbecue fire. You’ll also find a far greater range of charcoal barbecues.Size For anyone who likes to throw a garden party with a busy barbecue at the centre of the action, there are some vast grills (烤架) available. But unless you’re regularly feeding the masses, then these BBQ beasts can be impractical. Smaller meals are better suited to smaller equipment, so be realistic about the size that best suits you.Open grill or lid While facing the barbecue selection of your nearest retailer, you’ll notice that some of them have lids. These will usually be round and will make you pay more than the lidless options. But if you want the benefit of being able to cook larger items over a longer period of time, such as a whole chicken, then a lid will be essential. 1．Which BBQ is suitable for Jack, who likes back-to-basics cooking and often invites friends to the garden party? A．Gas barbecue in small size. B．Gas barbecue in big size. C．Charcoal barbecue with big grills. D．Charcoal barbecue with small grills. 2．What is the difference between the open grill and the one with a lid? A．The open grill costs more. B．The open grill looks superior. C．The open grill is more reliable. D．The open grill is less suitable for larger items. 3．Which column of the magazine is the passage most likely selected from? A．Lifestyle. B．Business. C．Culture. D．Sports. 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．A 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了选购烧烤架的具体方法。 1．细节理解题。根据Charcoal vs Gas部分的“But for many, the main fun of a barbecue lies in the back-to-basics cooking that hot coal brings natural barbecue fire. (但对许多人来说，烧烤的主要乐趣在于回归基本的烹饪，热炭带来自然的烧烤火。)”和Size部分的“For anyone who likes to throw a garden party with a busy barbecue at the centre of the action, there are some vast grills (烤架) available. (对于那些喜欢举办花园派对，并在活动中心进行烧烤的人来说，这里有一些大型烧烤架可供选择。)”可知，炭火烧烤适合喜欢回归基本的烹饪的人，大型烧烤架适合喜欢举办花园派对的人，因此Jack应该选择带大型烧烤架的炭火烧烤。故选C项。 2．细节理解题。根据Open grill or lid部分的“But if you want the benefit of being able to cook larger items over a longer period of time, such as a whole chicken, then a lid will be essential. (但如果你想在更长的时间内烹饪体积更大的食物，比如整只鸡，那么盖子将是必不可少的。)”可知，开放式的和带盖式的烤架的区别在于前者不太适合体积较大的食物。故选D项。 3．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“So to help you get a better understanding of just some of the choices available, here’s our guide to buying a new BBQ. (因此，为了帮助你更好地了解一些可获得的选择，这里是我们购买新烧烤架的指南。)”可知，文章为想要做烧烤、购买烧烤架的人群提供了购买指南，从炭火和燃气、尺寸、开放式和带盖式三个方面具体介绍了选购的方法。因此，文章主要涉及饮食和购物领域，应该会出现在杂志的生活方式栏目里。故选A项。 （22-23高二上·江苏徐州·期中）The air gets a little thinner and the cold begins to wrap around us as fall leaves and winter arrives. Some people regard winter as a goodbye to their favorite outdoor sports. However, there are plenty of winter outdoor activities that transcend all seasons. Climbing Some climbers say that winter climbing and summer climbing are completely different sports. The snow, ice, and cold has the tendency to turn one terrain (地形) into something completely different than it is in the warmer months. As with any other change in temp and terrain, you’ll need gear (设备) and expectations that make sense for the conditions. Plan for the weather getting worse, pack hot liquids, bring all extreme winter climbing supplies-even if the terrain isn’ t expected to need it, layer your clothes, and turn back if you need to. Winter climbing offers more different experiences and views than climbing in warmer months. Cycling No matter what type of cycling you’re into, whether it is mountain biking or commuting to work, you can turn it into an all - season activity. Just like anything else, it simply requires some modification ( 改进). Wearing more layers is important, but not so many that you’ll be sweating after a few minutes peddling. A good base layer, gloves, boots, and a head covering will make you plenty comfortable in the cooler temperatures. Running Seasonal Affective Disorder is a condition in which people can feel depressed and fatigued in the winter months as a result of the body’s lack of sunlight. Some people can combat this issue with light therapy. Another way to fight the winter blues is to do some exercise. Continuing to run outside is one way to soak in as much sunlight in your workout as you can. More layers and better shoes may be all you need to turn your warm weather month sport into a cold weather sport as well. In fact, many runs and marathons take place in cooler months. Just be aware of the thinner air and how it can affect your breathing as well as your muscles. However, don’t let a little cold keep you from enjoying a run with a beautiful snowy backdrop. 1．What should you prepare when climbing in winter? A．Hot liquids. B．A head covering. C．Boots. D．Thin clothes. 2．What does the underlined word “fatigued” in the fourth paragraph mean? A．Excited. B．Warm. C．Tired. D．Frightened. 3．What’s the purpose of the text? A．To show the benefit of climbing. B．To recommend some good winter sports. C．To warn people of the danger of winter sports. D．To tell the difference between winter and summer sports. 【答案】1．A 2．C 3．B 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍的是冬季的一些超越季节的户外活动。 1．细节理解题。根据Climbing部分的“Plan for the weather getting worse, pack hot liquids, bring all extreme winter climbing supplies-even if the terrain isn’ t expected to need it, layer your clothes, and turn back if you need to.(做好天气变坏的准备，带上热液体，带上所有的冬季极限登山用品——即使地形不需要，穿好衣服，如果需要的话可以往回走。)”可知，冬天登山时应该准备热的液体。故选A。 2．词句猜测题。根据Running部分的“feel depressed(感到沮丧)”和“in the winter months as a result of the body’s lack of sunlight(在冬季的几个月里，由于身体缺乏阳光)”可知，在冬季，由于身体缺乏阳光，人们会感到抑郁和疲劳，这叫季节性情绪失调，由此可知，划线词fatigued的意思是“疲劳的”，和tired意思相近，故选C。 3．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“Some people regard winter as a goodbye to their favorite outdoor sports. However, there are plenty of winter outdoor activities that transcend all seasons.(有些人认为冬天是他们最爱的户外运动的告别。然而，冬季有很多超越季节的户外活动。)”可知，本文主要介绍的是冬季的一些超越季节的户外活动，因此目的是推荐一些好的冬季运动。故选B。 （22-23高二上·江苏南通·期中）The dazzling beauty of abandoned cinemas Old and historical cinemas are all around us and yet so unnoticed. A new photobook reveals their often overlooked beauty. Loew’s Palace Theatre, Bridgeport, Connecticut Originally opened as the Poli’s Palace Theatre in 1922 by architect Thomas W. Lamb as one of a double theatre complex along with the nearby Poli’s Majestic Theatre. In 1934, both theatres were taken over by Loew’s and operated as film theatres. In the late 1970s, an attempt to turn the building into a Christian Revival Centre never came to fruition. The theatre is presently vacant and awaiting restoration. Metropolitan Opera House, Philadelphia Originally founded as the Philadelphia Opera House in 1908, it was designed by local architect William H. McElfatrick, who was in charge of the design of 40 theatres in his career. The Philadelphia Opera House was designed for opera impresario Oscar Hammerstein as his ninth opera house. In 1910, it was sold to the Metropolitan Opera of New York City and was renamed the Met. Through the 1920s, it showed silent films in addition to hosting various opera companies. In the late 1930s, it became a ballroom, and in the 1940s a sports area for basketball, wrestling, and boxing events. It finally closed in 1954 and was turned into a church. Robin’s Theatre, Warren, Ohio Opened in 1923, it had 1,500 seats, and was designed by architects I. J. Goldston and Detroit-based C． Howard Crane. It was operated by The Robins Theatre Enterprises Co. , a local company founded by Daniel Robins, who was an early partner of Albert Warner of Warner Bros. It closed in 1974 and was vacant until 2018, when it was renovated and reopened as a multipurpose venue in 2020. 1．At present, which cinema are you likely to go to for a concert? A．Poli’s Palace Theatre. B．Robin’s Theatre, Warren, Ohio. C．Metropolitan Opera House, Philadelphia. D．Loew’s Palace Theatre, Bridgeport, Connecticut. 2．What do the three cinemas have in common? A．All of them were renamed. B．All of them are currently in use. C．All of them have been restored. D．All of them have undergone some changes. 3．Where is the text probably taken from? A．An illustrated magazine. B．A campus poster. C．An advertising brochure.

In the late 1970s, an attempt to turn the building into a Christian Revival Centre never came to fruition.(1934年，这两家剧院都被勒夫接管，作为电影院运营。在20世纪70年代末，人们试图将这座建筑改造成基督教复兴中心，但最终未能实现。)”；Metropolitan Opera House, Philadelphia中“Through the 1920s, it showed silent films in addition to hosting various opera companies. In the late 1930s, it became a ballroom, and in the 1940s a sports area for basketball, wrestling, and boxing events. It finally closed in 1954 and was turned into a church.(整个20世纪20年代，除了招待各种歌剧公司外，它还放映默片。在20世纪30年代末，它变成了舞厅，在40年代成为了篮球、摔跤和拳击比赛的运动场地。它最终在1954年关闭，被改成了教堂。)”；Robin’s Theatre, Warren, Ohio的“Opened in 1923, it had 1,500 seats, and was designed by architects I.

It was operated by The Robins Theatre Enterprises Co. , a local company founded by Daniel Robins, who was an early partner of Albert Warner of Warner Bros. It closed in 1974 and was vacant until 2018, when it was renovated and reopened as a multipurpose venue in 2020.(它于1923年开放，有1500个座位，由建筑师I. J. Goldston和底特律的C. Howard Crane设计。剧院由Daniel Robins创办的当地公司罗宾斯剧院企业有限公司运营，罗宾斯是华纳兄弟公司阿尔伯特·华纳的早期合伙人。剧院于1974年关闭，一直空置到2018年，直到2020年重新装修，成为多功能剧院。)”可知，这三家电影院的共同点是它们都经历了一些变化。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据第一段“Old and historical cinemas are all around us and yet so unnoticed. A new photobook reveals their often overlooked beauty.(我们周围到处都是古老的、历史悠久的电影院，但却鲜为人知。一本新的摄影集展示了它们经常被忽视的美丽。)”可推知，文章选自插图杂志。故选A。 （23-24高二上·江苏淮安·期中）Great Libraries for Kids in Los AngelesBuena Vista Branch Library Phone: 818-238-5600 Hours: Mondays — Thursdays: 10 am — 9 pm Fridays & Saturdays: 10 am — 6 pm Sundays: 1 pm — 5 pm The children’s room at the library hosts baby and toddler (学步的幼儿) story times and — excitingly — a “sensory story time” designed especially for children with special needs.
