On a weekend during Spring Festival, my parents and I were sitting in a restaurant. The drinks and food were good. When we finished, my father called the waiter and asked for the bill (账单). It was a lovely meal, so my father wanted to leave a tip (小费). As we were ready to open the door to leave, the waiter caught up with us. He gave the tip back to us. My dad forgot that here in China, and tipping is not common.
However, in some countries, tipping is the custom (习俗). That’s the way it is in the US. It’s said to be good manners to tip those in the service sector (服务行业), including your waiter, taxi driver, hairdresser, doorman and so on. The better the service is, the higher the tip will be. But we usually give a tip between 15% and 20% of the bill. It can really put your math skills to the test!
So why is there a strong custom of tipping? In the US, waiters have a very low income (收入). But they can make more money from tips. As a US writer once wrote about her experience as a waitress, “It was difficult and I lived and died by my tips.”
31. Why did the waiter give the tip back to the writer’s family?
A. Because the meal wasn’t good enough. B. Because we don’t need to tip in China.
C. The waiter thought they paid too much. D. The waiter didn’t want the tip.
32. How much would someone tip the waiter for an 80-dollar meal in the US?
A. 5 dollars. B. 15 dollars. C. 25 dollars. D. 80 dollars.
33. Tipping is a custom in the US because ________.
A. people, such as waiters, offer service to customers
B. many waiters ask customers to give tips
C. people working in the service sector don’t make much money
D. American people enjoy helping others
34. What does the writer’s words “It was difficult and I lived and died by my tips.” mean?
A. The writer’s life was hard and tips were important to make a living.
B. The writer had a very easy life through getting tips.
C. The writer didn’t care much about tips.
D. The writer had high income besides tips.
35 The story is mainly about ________.
A. how to give a tip in the US B. some customs in China
C. having a meal in China D. tipping customs in China and the US
【答案】31. B 32. B 33. C 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了中美两国给小费的习俗,在中国吃饭不需要给小费,而在美国,给服务人员小费是一种礼貌。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据“He gave the tip back to us. My dad forgot that here is China, tipping is not common.”可知,在中国吃饭不给小费,所以服务员把钱退了回来。故选B。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据“But we usually give a tip between 15% and 20% of the bill.”可知,通常会给账单的15%到20%的小费,一顿80美元的饭,小费应给12—16美元,选项B符合。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据“In the US, waiters have a very low income (收入). But they can make more money from tips.”可知,因为在美国,服务员的收入很低,故选C。
【34题详解】

C
Feeling hot? So is Earth. Because of problems like climate (气候) change and bad ways of farming, much of the land is drying up. What can we do to solve this problem?
The United Nations set up a holiday. In 1994, the UN started World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought (世界防治荒漠化和干旱日), to let more people know about desertification. It is on June 17 every year.
Desertification happens when healthy land filled with water and nutrients (营养) becomes desert. It is dry and unhealthy. Every year, 20,000 km² to 50,000 km² of Earth’s land is lost to desertification. In Africa scientists predict (预测) that about 70% of Africa’s healthy land will be lost by 2025.
Desertification sometimes happens because of climate change. Big and fast changes in temperature can kill plants and trees.
However, it also happens because people use land too much, and in bad ways, to grow food on their farms. If we grow too many plants in the same soil (土壤) within too short a time, it will take away the soil’s nutrients. That can turn the soil into dry sand, like a desert.
The UN suggests some different actions to stop desertification. One is to teach people better ways of farming, including the use of better fertilizers (肥料). Another is reforestation (重新造林). It means planting more trees. Today China has 61 million hectares (公顷) of new land to plant trees—more than anywhere else in the world.
36. What is land like if desertification happens?
A. It is full of water. B. It has more nutrients.
C. It is dry and unhealthy. D. It is easy to live on.
37. What do scientists guess will happen in Africa by 2025?
A. There will be 20,000 km² of land desertification in Africa.
B. Africa will have about 50,000 km² of healthy land.
C. Growing plants will help Africa have more healthy land.
D. Most of Africa’s land will be dry and unhealthy.
38. Why isn’t it good to grow too many plants in the same soil?
A. Because it can change the climate fast. B. Because it can take away the soil’s nutrients.
C. Because it can change dry sand into bad soil. D. Because it can take the places of forests.
39. Which of the following does NOT cause desertification?
A. Climate change. B. Overusing the land. C. Using poor fertilizers. D. Plant more trees.
40. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. The UN’s advice for stopping desertification. B. The UN’s plans for improved farming.
C. The importance of reforestation. D. The causes of desertification.
【答案】36. C 37. D 38. B 39. D 40. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了土地沙漠化的原因和解决办法。
【36题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Desertification happens when healthy land filled with water and nutrients (营养) becomes desert. It is dry and unhealthy”可知当充满水和营养的健康土地变成沙漠时,就会发生荒漠化,这时土地干燥且不健康。故选C。
【37题详解】
细节理解题。根据“In Africa scientists predict (预测) that about 70% of Africa’s healthy land will be lost by 2025.”可知科学家预测,到2025年,非洲约70%的健康土地将消失,即非洲的大部分土地将变得干燥和不健康。故选D。
【38题详解】
细节理解题。根据“If we grow too many plants in the same soil (土壤) within too short a time, it will take away the soil’s nutrients”可知如果我们在太短的时间内在同一土壤中种植太多的植物,就会带走土壤的养分。故选B。
【39题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Desertification sometimes happens because of climate change”“However, it also happens because people use land too much, and in bad ways, to grow food on their farms”以及“Another is reforestation (重新造林). It means planting more trees”可知天气变化、过度使用土地以及不良耕作方式会造成沙漠化,而多种树不会造成沙漠化。故选D。
40题详解】
主旨大意题。根据“The UN suggests some different actions to stop desertification”可知本段主要介绍了联合国关于遏制荒漠化的建议。故选A。

On a weekend during Spring Festival, my parents and I were sitting in a restaurant. The drinks and food were good. When we finished, my father called the waiter and asked for the bill (账单). It was a lovely meal, so my father wanted to leave a tip (小费). As we were ready to open the door to leave, the waiter caught up with us. He gave the tip back to us. My dad forgot that here in China, and tipping is not common.
However, in some countries, tipping is the custom (习俗). That’s the way it is in the US. It’s said to be good manners to tip those in the service sector (服务行业), including your waiter, taxi driver, hairdresser, doorman and so on. The better the service is, the higher the tip will be. But we usually give a tip between 15% and 20% of the bill. It can really put your math skills to the test!
So why is there a strong custom of tipping? In the US, waiters have a very low income (收入). But they can make more money from tips. As a US writer once wrote about her experience as a waitress, “It was difficult and I lived and died by my tips.”
31. Why did the waiter give the tip back to the writer’s family?
A. Because the meal wasn’t good enough. B. Because we don’t need to tip in China.
C. The waiter thought they paid too much. D. The waiter didn’t want the tip.
32. How much would someone tip the waiter for an 80-dollar meal in the US?
A. 5 dollars. B. 15 dollars. C. 25 dollars. D. 80 dollars.
33. Tipping is a custom in the US because ________.
A. people, such as waiters, offer service to customers
B. many waiters ask customers to give tips
C people working in the service sector don’t make much money
D. American people enjoy helping others
34. What does the writer’s words “It was difficult and I lived and died by my tips.” mean?
A. The writer’s life was hard and tips were important to make a living.
B. The writer had a very easy life through getting tips.
C. The writer didn’t care much about tips.
D. The writer had high income besides tips.
35. The story is mainly about ________.
A. how to give a tip in the US B. some customs in China
C. having a meal in China D. tipping customs in China and the US
C
Feeling hot? So is Earth. Because of problems like climate (气候) change and bad ways of farming, much of the land is drying up. What can we do to solve this problem?
The United Nations set up a holiday. In 1994, the UN started World Day to Combat Desertification and Drought (世界防治荒漠化和干旱日), to let more people know about desertification. It is on June 17 every year.
Desertification happens when healthy land filled with water and nutrients (营养) becomes desert. It is dry and unhealthy. Every year, 20,000 km² to 50,000 km² of Earth’s land is lost to desertification. In Africa scientists predict (预测) that about 70% of Africa’s healthy land will be lost by 2025.
Desertification sometimes happens because of climate change Big and fast changes in temperature can kill plants and trees.
However, it also happens because people use land too much, and in bad ways, to grow food on their farms. If we grow too many plants in the same soil (土壤) within too short a time, it will take away the soil’s nutrients. That can turn the soil into dry sand, like a desert.
The UN suggests some different actions to stop desertification. One is to teach people better ways of farming, including the use of better fertilizers (肥料). Another is reforestation (重新造林). It means planting more trees. Today China has 61 million hectares (公顷) of new land to plant trees—more than anywhere else in the world.
36. What is land like if desertification happens?
A. It is full of water. B. It has more nutrients.
C. It is dry and unhealthy. D. It is easy to live on.
37. What do scientists guess will happen in Africa by 2025?
A. There will be 20,000 km² of land desertification in Africa.
B. Africa will have about 50000 km² of healthy land.
C. Growing plants will help Africa have more healthy land.
D. Most of Africa’s land will be dry and unhealthy.
38. Why isn’t it good to grow too many plants in the same soil?
A. Because it can change the climate fast. B. Because it can take away the soil’s nutrients.
C. Because it can change dry sand into bad soil. D. Because it can take the places of forests.
39. Which of the following does NOT cause desertification?
A. Climate change. B. Overusing the land. C. Using poor fertilizers. D. Plant more trees.
40. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. The UN’s advice for stopping desertification. B. The UN’s plans for improved farming.
C. The importance of reforestation. D. The causes of desertification.
