So where does food past its “sell-by” date go? The answer is in the trash bin. Besides shops, people also cast away a lot of food when they buy too much and can’t eat it up. To stop food waste, people have come up with great ideas. Take a look and try to join the action! ②Set up food banks. When we have extra money, we save it in banks. This idea made people think. Could they set up “banks” for food? The world’s first food bank started in the US in 1967. Many other countries, including China, have caught up with this great idea. For example, Shanghai has recently made a “share fridge”. It stores cakes and canned food donated (捐赠) from nearby markets and restaurants. It’s free for anyone to enjoy. ③Pay as you feel. The Real Junk Food Project is a company in the UK. It says that food past its “sell-by” date could still be OK to eat. So they collect it from supermarkets, and put it on shelves (货架) in special cafes. There, the food has no price label (标签). You can give as much money as you want. If you don’t want to spend money, you can help do some work there. There are now 125 Real Junk Food cafes worldwide. And the number is growing quickly. ④Buy less. When there’s no food bank around, what can we do to help stop food waste? In two words: Buy less. Dining halls in more than half of US colleges are going tray-less (无托盘). It makes it harder for students to take too much. This small change brings a big difference. It reduces food waste by 25 to 30 percent, and saves water and energy because there are no trays to wash. 42. The underlined words “cast away” in Paragraph 1 probably means _____. A. put away B. take away C. give away D. throw away 43. Which of the following is true according to the article? A. People need to pay for food from “share fridge”. B. Dining without trays helps to reduce food waste and save water. C. Fifty percent of American restaurants are going tray-less. D. The food in the Real Junk Food Project is free for anyone. 44. How does the writer organize the writing？ A. B. C. D. 45. What’s the main purpose of the writing? A. To show how important the food bank is. B. To introduce some ways of stopping food waste. C. To ask people to buy food past its “sell-by” date. D. To discuss where the food past its “sell-by” date goes. 【答案】42. D 43. B 44. A 45.

(B) A boy helped save the life of his friend from choking (噎) in the dining hall at school while having their lunch there. A video of the accident has been watched by many people online. In the video, freshman Jackson just got a seat and ate his chicken sandwich. Suddenly, the food stuck in his throat and he hiccuped (打嗝). Hunter Olsen sat across from Jackson. He thought that Jackson was just joking so laughed at it along with his friends. But soon it became clear that Jackson was really choking and tried to cough the food out. He pointed to his throat to tell Hunter that he was not playing. Hunter realized that he had to “do something” and used the Heimlich maneuver (海姆立克急救法). Finally, with Hunter’s help, Jackson coughed the food out and could breathe again. Ms. Smith who had taught them the Heimlich maneuver during her health class, said she couldn’t believe her ears when she heard what had happened. But she was over the moon to know how her student put what she had taught into practice. She was so proud of Hunter. Hunter said at that time he didn’t pay much attention to Ms. Smith’s class, but that her great teaching had helped him know what to do when needed. Then he said, “I just thought that doing something was better than doing nothing.” 34. Why did Hunter laugh with his friends? A. Because his friends were telling jokes. B. Because he saw the food stuck in Jackson’s throat. C. Because he thought Jackson was playing a joke. D. Because Jackson looked very funny when he hiccuped. 35. When did Hunter realize Jackson was really choking? A. When he just sat down with his friends. B. When Jackson started to hiccup. C. When his friends began to laugh. D. When Jackson pointed to his throat. 36. How do you understand the underlined sentence? A. Ms. Smith went over to see what had happened. B. Ms. Smith felt happy with what Hunter had done. C. Ms. Smith didn’t believe Hunter had saved Jackson. D. Ms. Smith wanted to know how Hunter saved Jackson. 37. The writer wrote this passage to _______. A. tell a story that a boy saved his friend with Heimlich maneuver B. introduce some ways to save people C. warn us not to play jokes while having a meal D. teach us how to use the Heimlich maneuver (C) I walked into a restaurant and ordered some food. After about 20 minutes, a large group of people came in and took their own orders. I felt disappointed ( 失望) because the group got served before me. I watched as they began to eat and laugh loudly. I heard one of them bragging (吹嘘) about how he knew someone who works at the restaurant. Unable to stand it anymore, I decided to leave. I asked the waiter to cancel (取消) my order angrily. He told me nicely, “Yours is a special order. The head chef is preparing it himself. It’ll take a little more time. Please have a drink while you wait.” I calmed down and waited patiently (耐心地). A few minutes later, my meal was served by six waiters. To my surprise, the owner of the restaurant was a long-lost friend of mine. He saw me walking in and decided to surprise me. He turned my simple meal into a five-star meal for free. The people at the other table were shocked and couldn’t stop looking at me. They asked angrily why they didn’t get that kind of service. Such is life! Some people go ahead of you, laughing at you and talking about how they are smarter, better and luckier than you, while you are working hard day and night, wondering why it’s taking so long for you to get reward (奖励) like them. You just have to wait longer because your reward is more special. 38. Why did the writer feel disappointed at first? A. Because the group got served before him. B. Because the group had special service. C. Because the waiter canceled his order. D. Because the meal tasted really terrible. 39. The underlined word “He” in paragraph 5 refers to________. A.

Wait patiently for a rewarding life C. Have an unhappy experience D. Laugh at other unlucky guests (D) D ①Supermarkets only sell food before its “sell-by” date. So where does food past its “sell-by” date go? The answer is in the trash bin. Besides shops, people also cast away a lot of food when they buy too much and can’t eat it up. To stop food waste, people have come up with great ideas. Take a look and try to join the action! ②Set up food banks. When we have extra money, we save it in banks. This idea made people think. Could they set up “banks” for food? The world’s first food bank started in the US in 1967. Many other countries, including China, have caught up with this great idea. For example, Shanghai has recently made a “share fridge”. It stores cakes and canned food donated (捐赠) from nearby markets and restaurants. It’s free for anyone to enjoy. ③Pay as you feel. The Real Junk Food Project is a company in the UK. It says that food past its “sell-by” date could still be OK to eat. So they collect it from supermarkets, and put it on shelves (货架) in special cafes. There, the food has no price label (标签). You can give as much money as you want.
