For sharks, the Mesoamerican Reef, which stretches over 600 miles, is a busy highway. Sharks use it to find their way and it provides them with food and habitat.
But as with on-land highways, this superhighway can be dangerous. Overfishing, commercial development and illegal practices are endangering the species. “We’re seeing a continued decline in shark populations. Our goal is to turn that round.” says Rachel Graham, founder of Mar Alliance, a non-profit organization focused on conserving sharks.
By monitoring sharks, Mar Alliance can collect important knowledge on the species to help inform conservation and push for political action. But rather than acting in opposition to the local fishing community, MarAlliance enlists their help.
“They are the ones who are on the sea every single day,” says Graham, “and they’re the ones who decide the species’ future.”
MarAlliance employs up to 60 fishermen across its range, mostly on a project basis, training them to collect data, record and release fish. Not only does this provide an alternative income to fishing communities, making them less dependent on natural resources, but it also teaches them about the benefits of a healthy ocean ecosystem and how to fish sustainably.
Among them, Ivan Torres, who used to catch sharks to sell locally as food, has learned how critical they’re to the whole ecosystem, saying he’d never fish sharks any more.
If this attitude change continues to spread throughout fishing communities, Graham has hope for the shark populations. “The primary threat to sharks is unquestionably overfishing,” she says, “By reforming the industry, populations can bounce back.”
In 2020, Belize outlawed the use of gillnets, large panels of netting of trapping large sealife. The ban’s impact is already noticeable with a recorded 10-fold increase in shark populations.
But such regulations need to be copied along the whole superhighway for long-lasting impact, and countries need to find a sustainable balance between fishers and the fished. “We need to find a win-win strategy between fisher livelihoods and shark survival,” Graham emphasizes. “I hope that through education and providing an economic alternative for fishing communities, MarAlliance will help ensure safe passage for sharks along the reef”.
4. Which of the following best describes the Mesoamerican Reef for sharks?
A. Romantic but messy. B. Vital but insecure.
C. Adventurous but beautiful. D. Unfamiliar but reliable.
5. What does the underlined “they” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. MarAlliance. B. The fishers.
C. Monitoring authorities. D. The sharks.
6. What contributed to Ivan’s attitude shift apart from education?
A. A stricter fishing ban. B. The insurance payout he earned.
C. An offer of extra work. D. The fishing communities’ intervention.
7. What is mainly stressed in the last paragraph?
A. Solution to overfishing. B. Difficulties facing MarAlliance.
C. Impact of existing regulations. D. Features of international cooperation.
【答案】4. B 5. B 6. C 7. A
【解析】

【4题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第一段中“Sharks use it to find their way and it provides them with food and habitat. (鲨鱼用它来找路,它为它们提供食物和栖息地)”和第二段的“But as with on-land highways, this superhighway can be dangerous. Overfishing, commercial development and illegal practices are endangering the species. (但与陆地高速公路一样,这条超级高速公路也可能很危险。过度捕捞、商业开发和非法行为正在危及该物种)”可知,中美洲珊瑚礁对鲨鱼来说很重要但又充满危险。故选B。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。由文章第三段中“But rather than acting in opposition to the local fishing community, MarAlliance enlists their help. (但是,“海洋联盟”并没有采取反对当地渔业社区的行动,而是寻求他们的帮助)”以及第四段中“the ones who are on the sea every single day (他们每天都在海上)”可知,每天都在海上的人是渔夫们。由此可知,划线词They指的是渔夫们。故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第五段中“Not only does this provide an alternative income to fishing communities, making them less dependent on natural resources, but it also teaches them about the benefits of a healthy ocean ecosystem and how to fish sustainably. (这不仅为渔业社区提供了另一种收入来源,使他们减少对自然资源的依赖,而且还教会他们了解健康的海洋生态系统的好处以及如何可持续地捕鱼)”以及第六段中“Among them, Ivan Torres, who used to catch sharks to sell locally as food, has learned how critical they’re to the whole ecosystem, saying he’d never fish sharks any more. (其中,伊万·托雷斯曾经捕捞鲨鱼作为食物在当地出售,他已经了解到鲨鱼对整个生态系统的重要性,他说他再也不会捕捞鲨鱼了)”以及最后一段的“I hope that through education and providing an economic alternative for fishing communities, MarAlliance will help ensure safe passage for sharks along the reef(我希望通过教育和为渔业社区提供经济替代方案,海洋联盟将帮助确保对于鲨鱼沿着珊瑚礁的通道安全)”可推知,除了教育促成了伊万态度的转变的因素还有提供了可替代收入来源,也就是额外的工作。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。由文章最后一段“But such regulations need to be copied along the whole superhighway for long-lasting impact, and countries need to find a sustainable balance between fishers and the fished. “We need to find a win-win strategy between fisher livelihoods and shark survival,” Graham emphasizes. “I hope that through education and providing an economic alternative for fishing communities, MarAlliance will help ensure safe passage for sharks along the reef”. (但是,为了产生持久的影响,这些规定需要在整个高速公路上复制,各国需要在渔民和被捕捞者之间找到可持续的平衡。“我们需要在渔民生计和鲨鱼生存之间找到一个双赢的策略,”格雷厄姆强调说。“我希望通过教育和为渔业社区提供经济选择,海洋联盟将帮助确保鲨鱼沿着珊瑚礁的安全通道。”)”可推知,这些话强调了过度捕捞的解决方案,即需要在渔民生计和鲨鱼生存之间找到一个双赢的策略。故选A。
C
Jimmy Jiang envisions a future where every house is powered by renewable energy stored in batteries.
Jiang and his team at the University of Cincinnati have developed a new battery that could have far-reaching implications for the large-scale (大规模) energy storage needed by wind and solar farms.
“Batteries store renewable energy for when it’s needed, not just when it’s produced. This is crucial for getting the most out of wind and solar power,” Jiang said. “Energy generation and energy consumption is always mismatched. That’s why it’s important to have a device that can store that energy temporarily and release it when it’s needed.”
They described their novel design in the journal Nature Communications.
Traditional car batteries contain a mix of sulfuric acid and water. While they’re inexpensive and made from readily available materials, they have severe drawbacks for industrial or large-scale use. They have a very low energy density (密度), which isn’t suitable for storing sufficient power needed to power a city. And they have a low level for electrochemical stability, which means they can blow up.
Water has a voltage (电压) limit. Once the voltage of such a battery goes beyond the stability window of 1.5 volts, the water can decompose into hydrogen and oxygen, which is explosive.
But Jiang and his students have developed a battery without water that can generate nearly 4 volts of power. Jiang’s novel design does so by removing from a battery the membrane, which is a huge component of upfront costs and accounts for as much as 30% of the cost of the battery. They invented a new type of energy storage material that improves performance at a lower cost. “Membranes are also inefficient. They can’t separate the positive and negative sides completely, so there is always crossover,” he said.
The group has submitted temporary patent applications. “There is still a long way to go, but we’re advancing toward a dramatic battery transformation in the next decade. I’m confident about that. There is a lot of intense research going into pushing the boundaries of battery performance,” Jiang said.
8. What’s mainly talked about in paragraph 3?
A. Why batteries are essential. B. How to store renewable energy.
C. Why green energy is needed. D. How to conserve natural resources.
9. What’s the problem with traditional car batteries?
A. They’re too pricy. B. They’re made of rare materials.
C. They’re slow to charge. D. They have a potential explosion risk.
10. What can we say about Jiang’s novel design?
A. It may reshape the battery industry. B. It’s inappropriate for large-scale use.
C. It may help minimize power consumption. D. It’s subject to mature industry standards.
11. What is Jiang’s attitude towards the prospect of the battery?
A. Dismissive. B. Uncertain. C. Positive. D. Pessimistic.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了姜和他的团队研究的新电池的优点和不足,以及发展前景。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。由文章第三段中““Batteries store renewable energy for when it’s needed, not just when it’s produced. This is crucial for getting the most out of wind and solar power,” Jiang said. “Energy generation and energy consumption is always mismatched. That’s why it’s important to have a device that can store that energy temporarily and release it when it’s needed.” (姜说:“电池在需要的时候储存可再生能源,而不仅仅是在生产的时候。这对充分利用风能和太阳能至关重要。”“能源生产和能源消耗总是不匹配的。这就是为什么拥有一个可以临时存储能量并在需要时释放能量的设备很重要。”)”可知,本段主要谈论了电池很重要,是必不可少的。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第五段中“And they have a low level for electrochemical stability, which means they can blow up.(它们的电化学稳定性很低,这意味着它们会爆炸。)”可知,传统汽车电池有潜在的爆炸风险。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第一段中“Jimmy Jiang envisions a future where every house is powered by renewable energy stored in batteries. (Jimmy Jiang设想了一个未来,每个房子都由储存在电池中的可再生能源供电。)”,第二段“Jiang and his team at the University of Cincinnati have developed a new battery that could have far-reaching implications for the large-scale (大规模) energy storage needed by wind and solar farms.(姜和他在辛辛那提大学的团队开发了一种新电池,这种电池可能对风能和太阳能发电场所需的大规模储能产生深远影响。)”和最后一段“There is still a long way to go, but we’re advancing toward a dramatic battery transformation in the next decade.(还有很长的路要走,但我们正在朝着未来十年电池的巨大转型迈进。)”可知,姜的新颖的设计,可能会给电池行业带来巨大变革,会重塑电池行业。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。由文章最后一段中““There is still a long way to go, but we’re advancing toward a dramatic battery transformation in the next decade. I’m confident about that. There is a lot of intense research going into pushing the boundaries of battery performance,” Jiang said.(“我们还有很长的路要走,但我们正朝着未来十年电池的巨大转型迈进。我对此很有信心。有很多深入的研究正在推动电池性能的极限,”姜说。)”可知,姜对于这种电池的前景很有信心,他是积极乐观的。故选C。

Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional (情感的) intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person's makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond skill-based emotional intelligence.
We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims. Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.
Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis (重视) on emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday life.
Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives (视角) from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction.
12. What is a common misunderstanding of emotional intelligence?
A. It can be measured by an IQ test. B. It helps to exercise a person’s mind.
C. It includes a set of emotional skills. D. It refers to a person’s positive qualities.
13. Why does the author mention “doctor” and “cheater” in paragraph 2?
A. To explain a rule. B. To clarify a concept.
C. To present a fact. D. To make a prediction.
14. What is the author’s attitude to the popularization of emotional intelligence?
A. Favorable. B. Intolerant.
C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
15. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning emotional intelligence?
A. Its appeal to the public. B. Expectations for future studies.
C. Its practical application. D. Scientists with new perspectives.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了情商的定义以及对有关于情商未来研究的期望。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities (研究表明,情商技巧可能有助于这些品质的形成)”可知,情商有助于这些品质的形成,所以情商并不是指一个人的积极品质。故选D项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims. (医生可能利用这种准确理解他人感受的能力来找到最好的帮助病人的方法,而骗子可能利用这种能力来控制潜在的受害者)”可推知,作者在文章第二段中提到“医生”和“骗子”是举例子来阐明下文的观点——情商高并不一定能使一个人成为有道德的人。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. …The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers (宣传的总体效果一直是利大于弊。这种普及最积极的方面是雇主、教育者和其他对促进社会福利感兴趣的人对情感进行了新的、迫切需要的强调。情商的普及帮助了公众和研究人员)”可知,作者认为总体效果利大于弊,情商的普及帮助了公众和研究人员,所以作者对情商普及的态度是赞同的。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives from which to study how people manage their lives. (我们希望这种关注将激发人们对情感科学和学术研究的更大兴趣。我们希望在未来的几十年里,科学的进步将为研究人们如何管理自己的生活提供新的视角)”可推知,本段主要讲述对未来关于情商研究的期望。故选B项。
第二节(共5小题:每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
My husband and I just spent a week in Paris.____16____So the first thing we did was rent a fantastically expensive sixth-floor apartment the size of a cupboard. It was so tiny that we had to leave our suitcases in the hallway.
The place wasn’t entirely authentic, though. Unlike a normal Parisian apartment, the plumbing (水管) worked. ____17____Our building even had a tiny lift with a female voice that said, “Ouverture des portes,” in perfect French. That is the only French phrase I mastered, and it’s a shame I don’t have much use for it.
Parisians are different from you and me. They never look lazy or untidy. As someone noted in this paper a couple of weeks ago, they eat great food and never gain weight. ____18____ French strawberries do not taste like cardboard. Instead, they explode in your mouth like little flavor bombs.
____19____ On our first morning in Paris, I went around the corner to the food market to pick up some groceries. I bought a handful of perfectly ripe small strawberries and a little sweet melon. My husband and I agreed they were the best fruit we had ever eaten. But they cost $18!
In France, quality of life is much more important than efficiency. You can tell this by cafés life. French cafés are always crowded.____20____When do these people work? The French take their 35-hour workweek seriously — so seriously that some labor unions recently struck a deal with a group of companies limiting the number of hours that independent contractors can be on call.
A. Not all the customers are tourists.
B. The quality of life in France is equally excellent.
C. There was a nice kitchen and a comfortable bed.
D. The amazing food is mainly consumed by local farmers.
E. That’s not the only reason the French eat less than we do.
F. Our aim was to see if we could live, in some way, like real Parisians.
G. The food is so delicious that you don’t need much of it to make you happy.
【答案】16. F 17. C 18. G 19. E 20. A

Rome can be pricey for travelers, which is why many choose to stay in a hostel (旅社). The hostels in Rome offer a bed in a dorm room for around $25 a night, and for that, you’ll often get to stay in a central location (位置) with security and comfort.
Yellow Hostel
If I had to make just one recommendation for where to stay in Rome, it would be Yellow Hostel. It’s one of the best-rated hostels in the city, and for good reason. It’s affordable, and it’s got a fun atmosphere without being too noisy. As an added bonus, it’s close to the main train station.
Hostel Alessandro Palace
If you love social hostels, this is the best hostel for you in Rome. Hostel Alessandro Palace is fun. Staff members hold plenty of bar events for guests like free shots, bar crawls and karaoke. There’s also an area on the rooftop for hanging out with other travelers during the summer.
Youth Station Hostel
If you’re looking for cleanliness and a modern hostel, look no further than Youth Station. It offers beautiful furnishings and beds. There are plenty of other benefits, too; it doesn’t charge city tax; it has both air conditioning and a heater for the rooms; it also has free Wi-Fi in every room.
Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes
Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes is located just a 10-minute walk from the central city station and it’s close to all of the city’s main attractions. The staff is friendly and helpful, providing you with a map of the city when you arrive, and offering advice if you require some. However, you need to pay 2 euros a day for Wi-Fi.

For sharks, the Mesoamerican Reef, which stretches over 600 miles, is a busy highway. Sharks use it to find their way and it provides them with food and habitat.
But as with on-land highways, this superhighway can be dangerous. Overfishing, commercial development and illegal practices are endangering the species. “We’re seeing a continued decline in shark populations. Our goal is to turn that round.” says Rachel Graham, founder of Mar Alliance, a non-profit organization focused on conserving sharks.
By monitoring sharks, Mar Alliance can collect important knowledge on the species to help inform conservation and push for political action. But rather than acting in opposition to the local fishing community, MarAlliance enlists their help.
“They are the ones who are on the sea every single day,” says Graham, “and they’re the ones who decide the species’ future.”
MarAlliance employs up to 60 fishermen across its range, mostly on a project basis, training them to collect data, record and release fish. Not only does this provide an alternative income to fishing communities, making them less dependent on natural resources, but it also teaches them about the benefits of a healthy ocean ecosystem and how to fish sustainably.
Among them, Ivan Torres, who used to catch sharks to sell locally as food, has learned how critical they’re to the whole ecosystem, saying he’d never fish sharks any more.
If this attitude change continues to spread throughout fishing communities, Graham has hope for the shark populations. “The primary threat to sharks is unquestionably overfishing,” she says, “By reforming the industry, populations can bounce back.”
In 2020, Belize outlawed the use of gillnets, large panels of netting of trapping large sealife. The ban’s impact is already noticeable with a recorded 10-fold increase in shark populations.
But such regulations need to be copied along the whole superhighway for long-lasting impact, and countries need to find a sustainable balance between fishers and the fished. “We need to find a win-win strategy between fisher livelihoods and shark survival,” Graham emphasizes. “I hope that through education and providing an economic alternative for fishing communities, MarAlliance will help ensure safe passage for sharks along the reef”.
4. Which of the following best describes the Mesoamerican Reef for sharks?
A. Romantic but messy. B. Vital but insecure.
C. Adventurous but beautiful. D. Unfamiliar but reliable.
5. What does the underlined “they” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. MarAlliance. B. The fishers.
C. Monitoring authorities. D. The sharks.
6. What contributed to Ivan’s attitude shift apart from education?
A. A stricter fishing ban. B. The insurance payout he earned.
C. An offer of extra work. D. The fishing communities’ intervention.
7. What is mainly stressed in the last paragraph?
A. Solution to overfishing. B. Difficulties facing MarAlliance.
C. Impact of existing regulations. D. Features of international cooperation.
C
Jimmy Jiang envisions a future where every house is powered by renewable energy stored in batteries.
Jiang and his team at the University of Cincinnati have developed a new battery that could have far-reaching implications for the large-scale (大规模) energy storage needed by wind and solar farms.
“Batteries store renewable energy for when it’s needed, not just when it’s produced. This is crucial for getting the most out of wind and solar power,” Jiang said. “Energy generation and energy consumption is always mismatched. That’s why it’s important to have a device that can store that energy temporarily and release it when it’s needed.”
They described their novel design in the journal Nature Communications.
Traditional car batteries contain a mix of sulfuric acid and water. While they’re inexpensive and made from readily available materials, they have severe drawbacks for industrial or large-scale use. They have a very low energy density (密度), which isn’t suitable for storing sufficient power needed to power a city. And they have a low level for electrochemical stability, which means they can blow up.
Water has a voltage (电压) limit. Once the voltage of such a battery goes beyond the stability window of 1.5 volts, the water can decompose into hydrogen and oxygen, which is explosive.
But Jiang and his students have developed a battery without water that can generate nearly 4 volts of power. Jiang’s novel design does so by removing from a battery the membrane, which is a huge component of upfront costs and accounts for as much as 30% of the cost of the battery. They invented a new type of energy storage material that improves performance at a lower cost. “Membranes are also inefficient. They can’t separate the positive and negative sides completely, so there is always crossover,” he said.
The group has submitted temporary patent applications. “There is still a long way to go, but we’re advancing toward a dramatic battery transformation in the next decade. I’m confident about that. There is a lot of intense research going into pushing the boundaries of battery performance,” Jiang said.
8. What’s mainly talked about in paragraph 3?
A. Why batteries are essential. B. How to store renewable energy.
C. Why green energy is needed. D. How to conserve natural resources.
9. What’s the problem with traditional car batteries?
A. They’re too pricy. B. They’re made of rare materials.
C. They’re slow to charge. D. They have a potential explosion risk.
10. What can we say about Jiang’s novel design?
A. It may reshape the battery industry. B. It’s inappropriate for large-scale use.
C. It may help minimize power consumption. D. It’s subject to mature industry standards.
11. What is Jiang’s attitude towards the prospect of the battery?
A. Dismissive. B. Uncertain. C. Positive. D. Pessimistic.
D
Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional (情感的) intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person's makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond skill-based emotional intelligence.
We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims. Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.
Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis (重视) on emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday life.
Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives (视角) from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction.
12. What is a common misunderstanding of emotional intelligence?
A. It can be measured by an IQ test. B. It helps to exercise a person’s mind.
C. It includes a set of emotional skills. D. It refers to a person’s positive qualities.
13. Why does the author mention “doctor” and “cheater” in paragraph 2?
A. To explain a rule. B. To clarify a concept.
C. To present a fact. D. To make a prediction.
14. What is the author’s attitude to the popularization of emotional intelligence?
A. Favorable. B. Intolerant.
C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
15. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning emotional intelligence?
A. Its appeal to the public. B. Expectations for future studies.
C. Its practical application. D. Scientists with new perspectives.

My husband and I just spent a week in Paris.____16____So the first thing we did was rent a fantastically expensive sixth-floor apartment the size of a cupboard. It was so tiny that we had to leave our suitcases in the hallway.
The place wasn’t entirely authentic, though. Unlike a normal Parisian apartment, the plumbing (水管) worked. ____17____Our building even had a tiny lift with a female voice that said, “Ouverture des portes,” in perfect French. That is the only French phrase I mastered, and it’s a shame I don’t have much use for it.
Parisians are different from you and me. They never look lazy or untidy. As someone noted in this paper a couple of weeks ago, they eat great food and never gain weight. ____18____ French strawberries do not taste like cardboard. Instead, they explode in your mouth like little flavor bombs.
____19____ On our first morning in Paris, I went around the corner to the food market to pick up some groceries. I bought a handful of perfectly ripe small strawberries and a little sweet melon. My husband and I agreed they were the best fruit we had ever eaten. But they cost $18!
In France, quality of life is much more important than efficiency. You can tell this by cafés life. French cafés are always crowded.____20____When do these people work? The French take their 35-hour workweek seriously — so seriously that some labor unions recently struck a deal with a group of companies limiting the number of hours that independent contractors can be on call.
A. Not all the customers are tourists.
B. The quality of life in France is equally excellent.
C. There was a nice kitchen and a comfortable bed.
D. The amazing food is mainly consumed by local farmers.
E. That’s not the only reason the French eat less than we do.
F. Our aim was to see if we could live, in some way, like real Parisians.
G. The food is so delicious that you don’t need much of it to make you happy.
