He was then awarded (奖励) some credit points which can be used to buy something or give charity meals to old people and children in need. The “Clear Plate” mini-program was produced by Liu Jichen, a student from Tsinghua University in 2018. The idea to develop such a mini-program came from Liu’s experience in a restaurant. In 2017, he found that a restaurant would give people small gifts if they finished off their food six times. “I think it was a great idea to save food. And I thought of using the Internet to do the similar thing,” he said. Liu organized (组织) a team of 20 members to work on the project at the end of 2017. To solve the Al’s problem of identifying (识别) photos of empty plates, the team spent half a year collecting over 100000 samples (样本) in restaurants. In 2018, the mini-program was put into use on Oct.16, World Food Day. The “Clear Plate” mini-program has become popular among young Chinese and now has more than 5 million users. It helps many people develop a good habit in a more interesting way. At the same time, it helps save food and help more people in trouble. Liu hopes people from other countries can use the program too in the future. “We hope to inspire everyone to take action against food waste,” he said. 36.

Nearly all carry packaged (包装的) meals and drinks. The store sells 800 to 1000 packaged meals, usually including rice and some smaller dishes, at lunchtime every workday. About 80% of the buyers are white-collar workers. Reasonable prices, convenience and quality of ready-to-eat meals have changed convenience stores into “kitchens” for many city workers. Zhang Hui, 32, an office worker in Shanghai, goes to these stores for most of her meals. She spends less than 10 yuan on breakfast and about 20 yuan on packaged meals for lunch and dinner each day. “When I’m busy, or when I have to eat alone, I will choose ready to eat foods in convenience stores, which are fast and make buying easy. This also saves me from feeling uncomfortable about eating alone in a restaurant,” Zhang said. “And, the taste of such foods is acceptable.” China has about 122,000 convenience stores, mainly in first-tier and second-tier cities (一线和二线城市). With the changes of modern society, people seem to have faster lives. Most of them now don’t have as much time to cook as before. With more disposable income (可支配收入), people are more willing to spend on convenience. And now they are paying more attention to the environment and food safety. Ready-to-eat foods in convenience stores can meet these needs, mainly for a large number of young single people. 41. The following are the reasons for choosing convenience store EXCEPT ________. A. convenience B. modern kitchens C. acceptable taste D. quality 42. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Zhang Hui’s self-cooking at home. B. Zhang Hui’s eating alone in a restaurant. C. Zhang Hui’s choice of ready-to-eat foods. D. Zhang Hui’s hurry to work without meals. 43. From Paragraph 3, we can know ________. A. Zhang Hui doesn’t know how to cook B. Zhang Hui often eats alone in a restaurant C. Zhang Hui thinks buying ready-to-eat foods is a good choice D. Zhang Hui thinks ready-to-eat foods taste good 44. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. China’s convenience stores are only in big cities. B. People care more about the environment and food safety. C. People in big cities have as much time to cook as before. D. Zhang Hui spends less than 20 yuan in convenience stores every day. 45. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. What convenience stores sell. B. How people like convenience stores. C. Why convenience stores are popular. D. Where people can find convenience stores. 【答案】41. B 42. C 43. C 44. B 45.

So, on Shrove Tuesday, the last day before Lent, they had a big celebration. The French call this day “Mardi Gras”, which means “Fat Tuesday”, because they had to use up any fatty food such as milk, eggs and butter before Lent. To do this, they made crepes. Today they still celebrate Mardi Gras by eating crepes. In the UK people call it Pancake Tuesday, and they eat pancakes with lemon and sugar. They also have pancake races, where people run along the street, throwing a pancake in the air and catching it in a frying pan! In Italy , Shrove Tuesday is called “Carnevale”, which means “goodbye to meat” and it also gives us the word Carnival (嘉年华). In many Italian cities, Carnival celebrations start weeks before Lent and people eat fritters. In Naples, a southern Italian city, people have a pasta dish called Grande Lasagne di Carnevale. In New Orleans, USA, the whole carnival season is called Mardi Gras, because it ends on Shrove Tuesday—but it starts on 6 January! There-are fancy-dress parties, street parades and food. Traditionally, everyone eats King cakes. Pancake Tuesday, Mardi Gras or Carnival—the name doesn’t matter, because it’s always a great chance to have fun and enjoy some delicious food. 31.

He was then awarded (奖励) some credit points which can be used to buy something or give charity meals to old people and children in need. The “Clear Plate” mini-program was produced by Liu Jichen, a student from Tsinghua University in 2018. The idea to develop such a mini-program came from Liu’s experience in a restaurant. In 2017, he found that a restaurant would give people small gifts if they finished off their food six times. “I think it was a great idea to save food. And I thought of using the Internet to do the similar thing,” he said. Liu organized (组织) a team of 20 members to work on the project at the end of 2017. To solve the Al’s problem of identifying (识别) photos of empty plates, the team spent half a year collecting over 100000 samples (样本) in restaurants. In 2018, the mini-program was put into use on Oct.16, World Food Day. The “Clear Plate” mini-program has become popular among young Chinese and now has more than 5 million users. It helps many people develop a good habit in a more interesting way. At the same time, it helps save food and help more people in trouble. Liu hopes people from other countries can use the program too in the future. “We hope to inspire everyone to take action against food waste,” he said. 36. To get some credit points, users need to ________. A. cut up the food on the plate B. clean up the plates C. eat up the food on the plate D. pick up the plates 37. The second paragraph mainly talks about ________. A. why Liu started the program B. where Liu started the program C. how people use the program D. what people can get from the program 38. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. It took half a year to finish the mini-program. B. Three advantages are listed about this program. C. Credit points can allow owners to eat food for free. D. The program is popular with young people in the world. 39. The purpose of the passage is to ________. A. introduce Liu Jichen B. solve some Al’s problems C. introduce a mini-program D. solve food safety problems 40. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? （①＝Paragraph 1, ②＝Paragraph 2 …） A. B. C. D. （D） At about noon one weekday in Maizidian, a busy business area in Beijing, office workers come in and out of a convenience (便利) store just as usual. Nearly all carry packaged (包装) meals and drinks. The store sells 800 to 1000 packaged meals, usually including rice and some smaller dishes, at lunchtime every workday. About 80% of the buyers are white-collar workers. Reasonable prices, convenience and quality of ready-to-eat meals have changed convenience stores into “kitchens” for many city workers. Zhang Hui, 32, an office worker in Shanghai, goes to these stores for most of her meals. She spends less than 10 yuan on breakfast and about 20 yuan on packaged meals for lunch and dinner each day. “When I’m busy, or when I have to eat alone, I will choose ready to eat foods in convenience stores, which are fast and make buying easy. This also saves me from feeling uncomfortable about eating alone in a restaurant,” Zhang said. “And, the taste of such foods is acceptable.” China has about 122,000 convenience stores, mainly in first-tier and second-tier cities (一线和二线城市). With the changes of modern society, people seem to have faster lives. Most of them now don’t have as much time to cook as before.
