Where to Eat in Kuala Lumpur
Great restaurants in Kuala Lumpur offer a genuine global dining experience. Whether you are looking to enjoy hearty comfort food or some local delicacies, the city’s dining scene satisfies all comers.
Mum’s Place
Nothing brings more comfort than mom’s cooking. With recipes inspired by the owners’ mother, this restaurant brings you Nyonya dishes that are truly Malaysian. Located in the district of Damansara Perdana, Mum's Place is a neighbourhood restaurant with its main customers from residents nearby. Some of the best dishes include cencaru fish, devil curry chicken and beef rendang.
Cantaloupe
Located about 20 minutes from downtown Malacca, it is a home -based eatery with about 10 tables manned by four operators. Unlike most restaurants, food is self-service here, with dishes placed on catering pans for customers to choose from. It serves traditional Malaysian dishes with distinct Chinese influences. You will find rice dumplings and chicken rendang among the offerings. It has two branches in the city. Their dishes sell out fast, so it'd be best to head there before lunch time.
Yum Yum Restaurant
Situated in the beautiful Shangri-La Hotel, Yum Yum Restaurant is among the locals’ many favourite spots to dine at. It offers an interesting Nyonya and Thai food with Chinese influences that make them stand out. The classic dishes include sambal petai prawns, assam fish head and Yum Yum egg. It can get crowded here, so it’d be best to head there early or call ahead for reservations.
Troika Sky Dining
Offering fine dining, the impressive Troika Sky Dining undoubtedly stands out from the pack. Set on the 23rd floor of Tower B of The Troika, it goes without saying that the cloud-skimming views here are something else entirely. The food is what helped it stand out. It serves award -winning French, Italian, Greek, and Spanish food and adventurous menu of high- end pizzas and pasta.
1. What do Mum’s Place and Yum Yum Restaurant have in common?
A. They are based in hotels. B. They serve Nyonya dishes.
C. They need prior reservations. D. They offer breathtaking views.

My daughter has a new app on her phone that can brighten up old photographs. She used it to make copies of pictures from my old photo albums look better, and emailed them back to me. There were pictures of Mom, Dad, my brothers, me and my first dog, Duke. Looking at them brought back so many loving and happy memories. I even put one on my computer as my new screen saver.
It is a picture of me sitting in my favorite chair, next to a bookcase full of old books. I am wearing my special sweatshirt and hugging Duke. There is a big smile on my face. It was howl spent a lot of my winter afternoons as a boy, hugging Duke and reading old books.
It is strange that the boy still lives inside me 50 years later. I still love comfortable chairs, warm stoves, sweatshirts, hugging dogs and reading books on cold, winter days. Yet, when I look in the mirror now, all I see are thinning and graying hair, age spots and lots of wrinkles. The only thing that hasn’t completely changed in that reflection is my eyes. They are hiding behind glasses now. They are set a little deeper in my eye sockets (眼窝). Only the innocence in them has been replaced with wisdom. But they still have that same joyfulness.
Looking at the little boy smiling at me from the computer screen and that 56-year-old man looking back at me in the mirror can be a bit confusing at times. They seem so different. Still, they are both me. It is one of those things we have to deal with being eternal (永久的) souls living inside temporary bodies. Perhaps the best thing we can do is to pay less attention to those reflections in the mirror and more to the reflections of our lives. We are all here to reflect back love to everyone here on Earth. And when we do, we remain both joyful and forever young.
4. What did the author’s daughter do with her new app on her phone?
A. She brightened up his old pictures. B. She put several pictures into his emails.
C. She searched for a screensaver for him. D. She created a scene about his childhood.
5. What can we know about the author as a boy?
A. He often felt lonely. B. He loved reading books.
C. He was forced to study. D. He was quite troublesome.
6. What can be inferred about the author from paragraph 3?
A. His hobbies have changed a lot. B. He is annoyed about his looks.
C. Time leaves few marks on him. D. He is a happy and mature man.
7. What message does the author seem to convey in the text?
A. Aging is unavoidable for everyone. B. A happy childhood is very important.
C. Loving others can bring us happiness. D. We should take good care of ourselves.
C
Native to forests of Central and South America, glass frogs in the Centrolenidae family get their name from their skin and muscles that help them be perfectly fit to live in their jungle environment. Turn the frogs over, where the effect is the most impressive, and you’ll make out their hearts, livers, and other organs through their hyaline stomachs.
And in a study published in the journal Science, researchers have discovered an amazing mechanism (机制) the animals use to become so clear.
When glass frogs go to sleep, they take in 89 percent of their brightly colored red blood cells into sacs (液囊) in their livers, which reflect incoming light and make the frogs appear nearly unseen. With their red blood cells out of view, the frogs become twice to three times more clear -a trick scientists believe helps the animals avoid being killed and eaten by their natural enemies.
“The trick is really hard to do, because their tissues are full of things that take in and spread light. And transparency (透明) is normal for many creatures in water, but hard on land,” says study co-author Jesse Delia. “Red blood cells also take in a lot of light, and we found that the frogs can actually hide themselves by packing them into the liver.”
Not only are the findings interesting, but the researchers attach great importance to them. That’s because many red blood cells in one place usually form a clot (血块), which can block and lead to a potentially life-threatening condition. But the frogs can seemingly clot and expand their red blood cells at will — without any negative effects. This may mean the animals already have what medical researchers have been seeking for decades: a biological mechanism which prevents too much bleeding while also preventing too much clotting.
8 What does the underlined word “hyaline” mean in paragraph 1?
A. See-through. B. Powerful. C. Narrow. D. Good-looking.
9. What is the new discovery about glass frogs?
A. The frogs fit in their environment better.
B. Sacs filled with red blood cells make the frogs clear.
C. Red blood cells in the frogs’ liver reflect light.
D. The frogs are able to take in a lot of bright colors.
10. What does Jesse Delia think of glass frogs’ trick?
A. Interesting. B. Unusual. C. Normal. D. Annoying.
11. Why do the researchers consider the findings important?
A. They help cure serious diseases.
B. They are a blessing for wild animals.
C. They can lead to advances in medicine.
D. They will prevent all clotting and bleeding.
D
About 12% of the total global energy demand comes from heating and cooling homes and businesses. A new study suggests that using underground water to maintain comfortable temperatures could reduce consumption of natural gas and electricity in this section by 40% in the US. The approach is called ATES, short for aquifer thermal energy storage(含水层热能储存).
“We need storage to absorb energy from the sun and wind. It’s crucial to creating affordable, reliable, and deeply environmental-friendly electricity systems. Most people are interested in batteries and other kinds of electrical storage. But we were wondering whether there was any opportunity to use geothermal (地热的) energy storage,” said first author A. T. D Perera. “With ATES, energy can be stored for a long period of time, without adding an additional burden to the grid (输电网).”
ATES is a pleasantly simple concept that takes advantage of the heat-absorbing property of water and the natural geological features of the planet You simply pull existing underground water up and heat it at the surface in the summer with environmental heat or energy. Then you send it back down. It stays fairly hot because the Earth is a good insulator (绝热体).
“Unlike above-ground tank-based water or ice storage systems, ATES will not need space. It’s also more efficient and can support larger communities in cooling or heating than traditional geothermal heat pump systems that rely on heat moving with the underground soil,” added coauthor Hong Tianzhen.
A major benefit of ATES is that it will become more efficient as weather becomes more extreme in the coming years due to climate change. The hotter summers and severer winters could increase the amount of free thermal energy that can be stored with ATES. “It’s very much a realistic thing to do and this work is really about showing its value,” said Perera. “This technology is ready to go, so to speak. We just need to do it.”
12. What do we know about ATES?
A. It is aimed at replacing natural energy.
B. It mainly relies on batteries to function.
C. It is technologically demanding.
D. It helps achieve an environmental-friendly society.
13. How does Hong Tianzhen explain ATES’s advantages?
A By giving examples. B. By discussing results.
C. By making comparisons. D. By analyzing principles.
14. Which will affect ATES’s efficiency most?
A. Extreme weather. B. Insulated materials.
C. The time of storage. D. The type of energy.
15. What can be the best title for the text?
A. A Turning Point in Energy Usage
B. A Transformation in the US Electricity System
C A Solution to Green Cooling and Heating
D. A Discovery About Geothermal Energy Storage

We met at the age of 10, too. Like my daughter. I was shy and had trouble making friends. But Susan drew me out. She was one of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile. Thanks to Susan. I was happy every day.
In senior high school, Susan went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few days. “I’ll be back soon and I will write to you as soon as I arrive.” she told me. But I didn’t get her phone call nor receive any mail from her. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey, making my hope of seeing Susan impossible.
Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.

Looking at the little boy smiling at me from the computer screen and that 56-year-old man looking back at me in the mirror can be a bit confusing at times. They seem so different. Still, they are both me. It is one of those things we have to deal with being eternal (永久的) souls living inside temporary bodies. Perhaps the best thing we can do is to pay less attention to those reflections in the mirror and more to the reflections of our lives. We are all here to reflect back love to everyone here on Earth. And when we do, we remain both joyful and forever young.

Native to forests of Central and South America, glass frogs in the Centrolenidae family get their name from their skin and muscles that help them be perfectly fit to live in their jungle environment. Turn the frogs over, where the effect is the most impressive, and you’ll make out their hearts, livers, and other organs through their hyaline stomachs.
And in a study published in the journal Science, researchers have discovered an amazing mechanism (机制) the animals use to become so clear.
When glass frogs go to sleep, they take in 89 percent of their brightly colored red blood cells into sacs (液囊) in their livers, which reflect incoming light and make the frogs appear nearly unseen. With their red blood cells out of view, the frogs become twice to three times more clear -a trick scientists believe helps the animals avoid being killed and eaten by their natural enemies.
“The trick is really hard to do, because their tissues are full of things that take in and spread light. And transparency (透明) is normal for many creatures in water, but hard on land,” says study co-author Jesse Delia. “Red blood cells also take in a lot of light, and we found that the frogs can actually hide themselves by packing them into the liver.”
Not only are the findings interesting, but the researchers attach great importance to them. That’s because many red blood cells in one place usually form a clot (血块), which can block and lead to a potentially life-threatening condition. But the frogs can seemingly clot and expand their red blood cells at will — without any negative effects. This may mean the animals already have what medical researchers have been seeking for decades: a biological mechanism which prevents too much bleeding while also preventing too much clotting.
8. What does the underlined word “hyaline” mean in paragraph 1?
A. See-through. B. Powerful. C. Narrow. D. Good-looking.
9. What is the new discovery about glass frogs?
A. The frogs fit in their environment better.
B. Sacs filled with red blood cells make the frogs clear.
C. Red blood cells in the frogs’ liver reflect light.
D. The frogs are able to take in a lot of bright colors.
10. What does Jesse Delia think of glass frogs’ trick?
A. Interesting. B. Unusual. C. Normal. D. Annoying.
11. Why do the researchers consider the findings important?
A. They help cure serious diseases.
B. They are a blessing for wild animals.
C. They can lead to advances in medicine.
D. They will prevent all clotting and bleeding.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究人员发现了玻璃蛙身体透明的原因以及玻璃蛙体内独特的生物学机制。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段中的“Turn the frogs over, where the effect is the most impressive, and you’ll make out their hearts, livers, and other organs(把青蛙翻过来,那里的效果最令人印象深刻,你会看到它们的心脏、肝脏和其他器官)”可知,把玻璃蛙翻过来就能够看清玻璃蛙的心脏、肝脏和其他器官。所以画线词的意思是“透明的”,与see-through“透明的”含义相近。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“When glass frogs go to sleep, they take in 89 percent of their brightly colored red blood cells into sacs (液囊) in their livers, which reflect incoming light and make the frogs appear nearly unseen.(当玻璃蛙进入睡眠状态时,它们体内89%的鲜红色红细胞会被吸收到肝脏的囊中,这些囊会反射入射光,使青蛙看起来几乎看不见。)”可知,充满红细胞的囊液使玻璃蛙变得透明。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中Jesse Delia说的话“The trick is really hard to do, because their tissues are full of things that take in and spread light. And transparency (透明) is normal for many creatures in water, but hard on land(这个技巧很难做到,因为它们的组织中充满了吸收和传播光线的物质。对于许多水中生物来说,透明是正常的,但在陆地上却很难)”可知,该能力是很不寻常的。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“This may mean the animals already have what medical researchers have been seeking for decades: a biological mechanism which prevents too much bleeding while also preventing too much clotting.(这可能意味着这些动物已经拥有了医学研究人员几十年来一直在寻找的东西:一种防止过多出血同时防止过多凝血的生物机制。)”可知,这些发现有可能推动医学的进步,因此研究者才认为这些发现很重要。故选C。
D
About 12% of the total global energy demand comes from heating and cooling homes and businesses. A new study suggests that using underground water to maintain comfortable temperatures could reduce consumption of natural gas and electricity in this section by 40% in the US. The approach is called ATES, short for aquifer thermal energy storage(含水层热能储存).
“We need storage to absorb energy from the sun and wind. It’s crucial to creating affordable, reliable, and deeply environmental-friendly electricity systems. Most people are interested in batteries and other kinds of electrical storage. But we were wondering whether there was any opportunity to use geothermal (地热的) energy storage,” said first author A. T. D Perera. “With ATES, energy can be stored for a long period of time, without adding an additional burden to the grid (输电网).”
ATES is a pleasantly simple concept that takes advantage of the heat-absorbing property of water and the natural geological features of the planet. You simply pull existing underground water up and heat it at the surface in the summer with environmental heat or energy. Then you send it back down. It stays fairly hot because the Earth is a good insulator (绝热体).
“Unlike above-ground tank-based water or ice storage systems, ATES will not need space. It’s also more efficient and can support larger communities in cooling or heating than traditional geothermal heat pump systems that rely on heat moving with the underground soil,” added coauthor Hong Tianzhen.
A major benefit of ATES is that it will become more efficient as weather becomes more extreme in the coming years due to climate change. The hotter summers and severer winters could increase the amount of free thermal energy that can be stored with ATES. “It’s very much a realistic thing to do and this work is really about showing its value,” said Perera. “This technology is ready to go, so to speak. We just need to do it.”
12. What do we know about ATES?
A. It is aimed at replacing natural energy.
B. It mainly relies on batteries to function.
C. It is technologically demanding.
D. It helps achieve an environmental-friendly society.
13. How does Hong Tianzhen explain ATES’s advantages?
A. By giving examples. B. By discussing results.
C. By making comparisons. D. By analyzing principles.
14. Which will affect ATES’s efficiency most?
A. Extreme weather. B. Insulated materials.
C. The time of storage. D. The type of energy.
15. What can be the best title for the text?
A. A Turning Point in Energy Usage
B. A Transformation in the US Electricity System
C. A Solution to Green Cooling and Heating
D. A Discovery About Geothermal Energy Storage
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文,介绍了一种新型的绿色环保冷暖电力系统解决方案——含水层热能储存(ATES)。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“A new study suggests that using underground water to maintain comfortable temperatures could reduce consumption of natural gas and electricity in this section by 40% in the US. The approach is called ATES, short for aquifer thermal energy storage.(一项新的研究表明,使用地下水来保持舒适的温度可以使美国这一地区的天然气和电力消耗减少40%。这种方法被称为ATES,是含水层热能储存的缩写)”及第二段“It’s crucial to creating affordable, reliable, and deeply environmental-friendly electricity systems.(这对于创造负担得起的、可靠的、高度环保的电力系统至关重要)”可知,ATES有助于实现环境友好型社会。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段““Unlike above-ground tank-based water or ice storage systems, ATES will not need space. It’s also more efficient and can support larger communities in cooling or heating than traditional geothermal heat pump systems that rely on heat moving with the underground soil,” added co-author Hong Tianzhen.(合著者Hong Tianzhen补充道:“与地面上基于水箱的水或冰储存系统不同,ATES不需要空间。与依靠热量随地下土壤移动的传统地热热泵系统相比,它也更高效,可以为更大的社区提供制冷或供暖服务。”)”可知,Hong Tianzhen将ATES与基于水箱的水或冰储存系统比较,来解释ATES的优势。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“A major beneft of ATES is that it will become more efficient as weather becomes more extreme in the coming years due to climate change. The hotter summers and severer winters could increase the amount of free thermal energy that can be stored with ATES.(ATES的一个主要好处是,随着未来几年气候变化导致天气变得更加极端,它将变得更加高效。炎热的夏季和寒冷的冬季可能会增加可以储存在ATES中的自由热能的数量)”可知,气温变化最能影响ATES的效率。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“About 12% of the total global energy demand comes from heating and cooling homes and businesses. A new study suggests that using underground water to maintain comfortable temperatures could reduce consumption of natural gas and electricity in this section by 40% in the US.(全球总能源需求中约有12%来自家庭和企业的供暖和制冷。一项新的研究表明,使用地下水来保持舒适的温度可以使美国这一地区的天然气和电力消耗减少40%)”及全文内容可知,本文介绍了一种新型的绿色环保冷暖电力系统解决方案——含水层热能储存(ATES)。B选项“绿色冷暖解决方案”为最佳标题。故选B。

【42题详解】
考查数词。句意:这些工作人员很多都很年轻,有些甚至才20多岁。根据空前“in their”可推知,此处在描述工作人员的年龄,用了固定短语“in+one’s+基数词的复数”,表示“在某人几十多岁时”。故填 twenties。
【43题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:全国各地的其他一些博物馆,如中国国家博物馆,都受到故宫博物院的努力的启发,正在进行自己的类似项目。根据空后“the National Museum of China”可知,此处用固定短语 such as,表示“例如”,对前面的 Some other museums进行举例。故填as。

考查非谓语动词。句意:全国各地的其他一些博物馆,如中国国家博物馆,都受到故宫博物院的努力的启发,正在进行自己的类似项目。Some other museums和inspire之间是被动关系,用过去分词作后置定语。故填 inspired。

【答案】Dear sir or madam,
My name is Li Hua, a boy student from Class 7 Grade 2. I have learned that volunteer students are needed to receive the coming American students. Greatly interested, I’m writing to apply to be one.
Located in downtown Hangzhou, my cozy home has a spare room to accommodate the honored guest with good facilities. Both my parents are Chinese teachers, which makes it easier for the student to experience Chinese culture during his staying at my home. Above all, I myself am a keen English learner, eager to befriend foreign students, exchanging ideas in English and sharing fascinating glimpses of diverse culture. As a young Chinese student, I also hope to help to make the foreign students can have a good impression of China and Chinese young people. Thank you for reading and I’m looking forward to your favorable reply.
Yours sincerely
Li Hua

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。
Whether we notice it or not, our child is a little reflection of ourselves. They grow up looking more and more like us. They even have similar personalities and hobbies. And in some cases, the standard of choosing a good friend.
One day, my 10-year-old Jane said, “Mom, I made a new friend at school today. Can she come over tomorrow?” Her words made me extremely happy because Jane was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell.
“Sure, honey, that sounds great.” I said, thinking back to my own childhood best friend, Susan. We lived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10, too. Like my daughter. I was shy and had trouble making friends. But Susan drew me out. She was one of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile. Thanks to Susan. I was happy every day.
In senior high school, Susan went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few days. “I’ll be back soon and I will write to you as soon as I arrive.” she told me. But I didn’t get her phone call nor receive any mail from her. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey, making my hope of seeing Susan impossible.
Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.
The next day Jane brought her new friend home. “Hi, Mrs. Smith.” the little girl said. Her hair was so shiny and black and she gave me a big smile. “My name is Jo. My mom will pick me up 2 hours later.”
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。
Paragraph1:
I was puzzled because my daughter’s new friend looked so familiar.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Two hours passed really quickly, and there was a knock on the door.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I was puzzled because my daughter’s new friend looked so familiar. But I was sure that I had never met Jo before. She told me that her family just moved from Los Angeles, which puzzled me even more because I had never been to Los Angeles and we had no relatives living in Los Angeles, either. I convinced myself that it was only my imagination. The two girls got on very well and they giggled from time to time. I watched them play and felt so happy for my daughter from the bottom of my heart.
Two hours passed really quickly, and there was a knock on the door. It was Jo’s mom coming to pick her up later that afternoon. On seeing her face, I was shocked. “Judy!” she cried. “It’s me, Susan!” We embraced each other. It turned out that her father’s company sent his father to Los Angeles before they settled in Florida. She tried calling me later but we had moved. The two little girls were happy to see their mothers became good friends at once before we told them our story, with happy tears rolling down our cheeks.
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇读后续写作文。
【详解】通过阅读所给文章可知,作者的女儿Jane想要邀请自己的朋友来家里,这让作者想起了自己童年时的好朋友Susan,回忆了当初和Susan相处的事情,后来因为作者搬家就没能再和Susan见面。第二天Jane把新朋友带回家,小女孩说自己叫Jo,她妈妈两个小时后来接她。
续写部分分为两段,第一段开头是:我很困惑,因为我女儿的新朋友看起来很面熟。所以后文应该是讲述作者对于觉得Jo面熟的困惑,以及看到Jo和Jane两个女孩相处得很好,作者从心底里为女儿感到高兴。
第二段开头是:两个小时过得真快,有人敲门。本段应该写Jo的妈妈来接Jo,作者发现正是Susan,Susan曾经联系过作者,但作者一家已经搬走了。两个小女孩也很为他们高兴,Susan和作者都留下了快乐的泪水。
最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右。
【点睛】本文描写详略得当,使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如:puzzle sb.;convince oneself that;imagination;get on very well;turn out等高级词汇;She told me that her family just moved from Los Angeles, which puzzled me even more because I had never been to Los Angeles and we had no relatives living in Los Angeles, either.运用宾语从句和非限制性定语从句;The two little girls were happy to see their mothers became good friends at once before we told them our story, with happy tears rolling down our cheeks.运用时间状语从句等高级句式。
