Entomophagy This is a proper term for eating insects! Numerous people realize that many of our basic food may disappear in the coming decades and insects can offer people good protein (蛋白质) to replace animal meats, so they believe insects are a good choice. It hasn’t quite happened yet because we all think insects are extremely unpleasant. But, many chefs are already experimenting in the field. A number of top chefs in London are using their cooking creativity to turn something unpleasant into something delicious. Tech at the Table Digital products will probably become a common part of our food and drink experiences in the near future. We’re going to see things like tablets and computer screens that can tell stories around the food we are eating. We’ll be able to change the color of plates digitally, because we know that colors can change the taste of food or make it look better. The Experimental Meal The experimental meal is liked by a growing number of people interested in finding new connections between their senses. They think that food is not just what goes into the mouth, but a whole experience. They’re seeing dining — music, lighting, staff uniforms, temperature changes — as a whole meal. They are trying to put different things together instead of having dinner and then going to the theatre, why not bring the two together? The same goes for cinema and music. 21．What is the reason for some people to turn to insects for food? A．The better taste of protein from insects. B．The popularity of some chefs in London. C．The possibility of main food disappearing. D．The performance of some chefs’ experiments. 22．Why is the color of plates changed digitally? A．To make the food healthy. B．To make the food attractive. C．To make the plate funny. D．To make the plate eco-friendly. 23．Why do some people prefer the experimental meal? A．To connect senses in a new way. B．To bring colorful plates together. C．To combine food with digital products. D．To carry out technology experiments. B Food is not just a means of satisfying hunger; it is deeply intertwined with culture. It reflects the history, traditions, values, and social structures of a society. For example, in many Asian cultures, rice is a staple food that has been cultivated for thousands of years. The way rice is grown, prepared, and served is an integral part of the culture. In Japan, the art of making sushi, which uses rice as a base, is highly regarded. Sushi-making involves precise techniques and an understanding of the quality of ingredients. It is not only a culinary skill but also a cultural expression that reflects the Japanese values of precision, harmony, and respect for nature. In Western cultures, bread holds a significant place. In France, the baguette is more than just a type of bread; it is a symbol of French culture. The process of making a baguette requires patience and skill, from kneading the dough to baking it to a perfect golden-brown crust. French people often enjoy baguettes with cheese, butter, or cold cuts, and it is a common sight to see them walking down the street with a freshly baked baguette under their arm. This simple yet iconic food represents the French love for good food, their appreciation for the artisanal, and their relaxed lifestyle. Food also plays a crucial role in cultural celebrations. In the United States, Thanksgiving is a major holiday centered around a large meal. The traditional Thanksgiving dinner includes turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie. These foods are not only delicious but also have historical and cultural significance. Turkey, for example, was one of the foods served at the first Thanksgiving feast in 1621, symbolizing the harvest and the cooperation between the Pilgrims and the Native Americans. 24．What does the example of sushi-making in Japan show? A．The importance of rice in Asian diets. B．The high-level culinary skills in Japan. C．The reflection of Japanese culture in food. D．The popularity of sushi in Japan. 25．Why is the baguette important in French culture? A．It is the most popular food in France. B．It represents French cultural values. C．It is easy to make and widely available. D．It is often served with other delicious foods. 26．What can we learn about Thanksgiving food in the United States? A．It has no special cultural meaning. B．It is mainly about enjoying delicious food. C．It symbolizes historical events and cooperation. D．It has changed a lot over the years. 27．What is the main idea of the passage? A．The variety of staple foods in different cultures. B．The role of food in cultural celebrations. C．The importance of food in different countries. D．The deep connection between food and culture. C Everyone is familiar with the colors of the foods they eat. You normally associate salads with green, apples with red, and rice with pink — wait a second, rice is white Well, scientists have synthesized (合成) a new, pinkish rice known as “meaty” rice. If commercialized, this option could be much cheaper than traditional meat in several countries. In South Korea, hybrid (杂交的) rice would be $13 cheaper than the average $15 per kilo of beef. Recently, scientists in South Korea discovered that rice could be a good base for meat cells to grow in as the enzymes (酶) and conditions that the rice provides make it an excellent catalyst for the growth of meat cells. When meat cells were allowed to grow in rice for 11 days, scientists found the final product contained eight percent more protein and seven percent more fat. Some researchers even claim that it has the potential to carry all the vital nutrients we need. Meaty rice has the potential to reduce our impact on the environment and is efficient in terms of cost and emissions. Currently, beef produces around 50 kg of carbon dioxide for every 100 grams of protein produced compared to the roughly 6 kg of emissions that hybrid rice produces. Raising livestock also requires more resources like water which is getting scarce. Some countries like Singapore, the Netherlands, and the United States have already sanctioned lab-grown meat. Meaty rice could be a valuable food source in the military and for space exploration as well as to provide relief during famines. However, many people find the idea of eating food created by a scientific lab unnatural and unappetizing. Italy, for example, recently became the first country in the world to ban lab-grown meat. The country’s Minister of Agriculture shared that the purpose of the ban was to protect Italian traditions and farmers. One thing to note is that the term “lab-grown” is used loosely. Many people associate the term with “artificial” or “manufactured”. While some lab-grown products meet that description, meaty rice is made from naturally growing meat cells. So, while it is indeed grown in a lab, the process itself is natural. 28．What can we know about meaty rice? A．It contains all the nutrients we need. B．It is $2 cheaper than traditional meat. C．It is different in color from traditional rice. D．It provides enzymes for meat cells to grow. 29．What does the underlined word “sanctioned” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Approved. B．Banned. C．Avoided. D．Replaced. 30．Why did Italy ban lab-grown meat? A．Because it has a bad taste. B．Because it lacks nutritious value. C．Because it may harm traditional farming. D．Because it may be resisted by local people. 31．What is the author’s attitude to meaty rice? A．Proud. B．Indifferent. C．Objective. D．Opposed. D If you’re a person who starts the day with a cup of coffee, there may be some good news. A new study published in the European Heart Journal suggests coffee drinkers live longer and healthier lives. The researchers set out to find out if the timing of coffee consumption makes a difference in health benefits. “Given the effects that caffeine (咖啡因) has on our bodies, we wanted to see if the time of day when you drink coffee has any impact on heart health,” Dr. Lu Qi, the study’s main author said. His team surveyed 40,725 adults about their coffee habits. Roughly a third of the participants reported drinking coffee primarily in the morning hours. About 16% consumed coffee throughout the day. And, roughly half of the participants didn’t drink coffee regularly at all. The research team followed participants over the course of a decade. They found that morning coffee drinkers were 16 percent less likely to die of any cause than both the non-coffee drinkers and the all-day drinkers. They were also 31 percent less likely to die of heart disease than either of the other two groups. “This is the first study to test the timing patterns and health outcomes of coffee drinking. Our findings indicate that it’s not just whether you drink coffee or how much you drink, but the time of day when you drink coffee that’s important. We don’t typically give advice about the timing in our dietary guidance, but perhaps we should be thinking about this in the future,” the researchers said. Interestingly, the participants who got the biggest benefit from drinking coffee self-reported they were moderate or heavy morning drinkers, categorized respectively as finishing two to three, or three or more, cups of coffee in the morning hours. Light coffee consumption, downing only one cup before noon, was still related to a lower risk of death than drinking coffee all day or not at all, but to a lesser extent than drinking several cups. Therefore, drink around three cups in the morning to obtain coffee’s greatest cardiovascular (心血管的) benefits. In addition, over roasted coffee can lose antioxidants (抗氧化剂), so for the greatest health benefits, look for a mixture that is still rich in antioxidants. 32．What does Dr. Lu Qi try to stress about the study in paragraph 2? A．Its process. B．Its prospect. C．Its intention. D．Its influence. 33．What can be inferred about the study mentioned in the text? A．It’s rather systematic. B．It’s slightly misleading. C．It’s somewhat limited. D．It’s fairly pioneering. 34．What conclusion can be drawn from the last paragraph? A．The choice of coffee variety matters little to us. B．We should increase the coffee intake gradually. C．Drinking coffee in a slow manner is of great importance. D．The amount of coffee we drink every day makes a difference. 35．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Coffee Drinking Habits: How Much Is Too Much B．Morning Coffee Consumption Linked to Better Health C．New Study Questions the Benefits of Drinking Coffee D．Antioxidants in Coffee: Key to Cardiovascular Benefits 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Being one of the most varied foods, eggs are a great addition to any diet. Not only are they easier to add to just about any meal, but they are also incredibly nutritious (有营养的) and support overall health. 36 ● You may experience better brain function. Eggs provide choline — a key substance that enhances communication between brain cells, ensuring messages are delivered efficiently like a well-organized delivery system. 37 This makes it easier to remember school lessons or daily tasks. What’s more, the nutrients in eggs act like brain fuel, keeping you focused during classes or while doing homework. ● 38 Eating eggs helps protect your eyes with natural substances that act as natural sunglasses, blocking harmful light like screen blue light. Egg yolks contain more eye-guarding nutrients than carrots, reducing eye fatigue (疲劳) during study sessions. So regular egg consumption helps maintain clear vision. ● You can have stronger muscles and bones. 39 Their vitamin D works with other nutrients like calcium and phosphorus to strengthen bones. They can help maintain bone structure and prevent weakness. Regular consumption supports muscle growth during daily activities and keeps bones strong. ● You can feel satisfied for a longer time. It may seem like other foods are much better at making you feel full, but eggs are actually an excellent selection. 40 By consuming more eggs, you are able to significantly decrease short-term food and snacks. A．You may have healthier eyes. B．You can get more energy quickly. C．Eggs are a good source when you’re busy. D．Thus, eating eggs regularly can strengthen your memory. E．Eggs provide quality protein for muscle repair after exercise. F．Here’s what happens to your body when you consume eggs daily. G．They’re an ideal mix of protein and fat, extremely satisfying and filling. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 The Chinese started eating lamb kebab (羊肉串) about 2,000 years ago.

The idea took root during a 2023 trip to Stockholm, where Zhou Yan, a 32-year-old native from Gansu, 56 (notice) something: Japanese ramen (拉面) and Vietnamese pho (米粉) were easy to find, but authentic Chinese noodles were 57 (obvious) absent. Zhou saw an opportunity to introduce Swedes to Lanzhou beef noodles. Zhou quickly began preparations — studying local business regulations, hiring an experienced noodle-pulling chef, securing a location, 58 eventually opening Sweden’s first Lanzhou beef noodle restaurant. Since opening, Ox Lan 59 (see) a steady stream of customers —70 percent of them Swedish. “Customers are fascinated by the artistry of hand-pulled noodles,” Zhou explained. “They’re used to ramen and pho, 60 are often pre-made. Watching dough (面团) transform into noodles in front of them is 61 whole new experience.” Another unique feature is the option to choose 62 seven noodle widths, 63 (range) from 0.5 mm to 50 mm. In Lanzhou, the most popular 64 (choose) is erxi, the fourth thinnest, but in Sweden, people are open to trying all seven options. Zhou is planning to expand further, with three new spots in Spain and ambitions to open restaurants in France and Italy. His goal is 65 (bring) Chinese fast food to major European cities. 第四部分 写作（共两节, 满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 66．假定你是李华，上周五你参加了学校举办的校园美食节活动。请你给英国笔友Lucas写一封邮件分享此次经历，内容包括： (1)活动内容； (2)你的感受。 注意： (1)写作词数应为80个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Dear Lucas, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 第二节（满分25分） 67．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。续写的词数应为150左右。 Every morning before work, my colleague and I have a routine. Right across from our office is a small family-owned breakfast shop run by a friendly couple. Their little shop isn’t fancy, but the food is exceptional, and it’s become our go-to spot to grab something to eat before the day gets busy. The shop has a simple yet delicious menu: steamed buns, xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), steamed dumplings, and sometimes even a bowl of savory zhajiangmian (noodles with fried sauce). Everything is incredibly tasty, and every item we try has its special taste that keeps us coming back for more. But there’s one item we both love above all others: the beef buns. The beef buns are like a treasure we’re always hunting. Perfectly soft, filled with juicy beef, and just the right amount of seasoning-they’re everything you could want in a breakfast bun. But the problem is, we’re not the only ones who think so. The beef buns are always in high demand, and they sell out quickly. In fact, if we manage to get one even once out of five visits, it feels like we’ve struck gold. And if there’s only one left when we order, we always face the dilemma (窘境) of who gets it. Over time, we developed a system for sharing the precious beef bun. If there’s only one left, we take turns eating it. I’d have it this time, and she’d get it the next. Typically, as soon as we enter the shop, one of us will ask, “Do you have beef buns today?” If the answer is no, we settle for another item from the menu, though secretly hoping that one day we’ll find an unlimited supply of our favorite treat. This morning, however, things were different. As we stepped into the shop, we noticed that the shopkeeper’s wife, who’s usually busy managing orders and cooking, had spotted us right away. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 She gave us a big smile, which felt different from the usual polite greeting. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ We both looked at the buns and then at each other, hardly believing our luck. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 23 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$听力考试正式开始。Are you sure that this bus will take us to the mall?

Entomophagy This is a proper term for eating insects! Numerous people realize that many of our basic food may disappear in the coming decades and insects can offer people good protein (蛋白质) to replace animal meats, so they believe insects are a good choice. It hasn’t quite happened yet because we all think insects are extremely unpleasant. But, many chefs are already experimenting in the field. A number of top chefs in London are using their cooking creativity to turn something unpleasant into something delicious. Tech at the Table Digital products will probably become a common part of our food and drink experiences in the near future. We’re going to see things like tablets and computer screens that can tell stories around the food we are eating. We’ll be able to change the color of plates digitally, because we know that colors can change the taste of food or make it look better. The Experimental Meal The experimental meal is liked by a growing number of people interested in finding new connections between their senses. They think that food is not just what goes into the mouth, but a whole experience. They’re seeing dining — music, lighting, staff uniforms, temperature changes — as a whole meal. They are trying to put different things together instead of having dinner and then going to the theatre, why not bring the two together? The same goes for cinema and music. 21．What is the reason for some people to turn to insects for food? A．The better taste of protein from insects. B．The popularity of some chefs in London. C．The possibility of main food disappearing. D．The performance of some chefs’ experiments. 22．Why is the color of plates changed digitally? A．To make the food healthy. B．To make the food attractive. C．To make the plate funny. D．To make the plate eco-friendly. 23．Why do some people prefer the experimental meal? A．To connect senses in a new way. B．To bring colorful plates together. C．To combine food with digital products. D．To carry out technology experiments. B Food is not just a means of satisfying hunger; it is deeply intertwined with culture. It reflects the history, traditions, values, and social structures of a society. For example, in many Asian cultures, rice is a staple food that has been cultivated for thousands of years. The way rice is grown, prepared, and served is an integral part of the culture. In Japan, the art of making sushi, which uses rice as a base, is highly regarded. Sushi-making involves precise techniques and an understanding of the quality of ingredients. It is not only a culinary skill but also a cultural expression that reflects the Japanese values of precision, harmony, and respect for nature. In Western cultures, bread holds a significant place. In France, the baguette is more than just a type of bread; it is a symbol of French culture. The process of making a baguette requires patience and skill, from kneading the dough to baking it to a perfect golden-brown crust. French people often enjoy baguettes with cheese, butter, or cold cuts, and it is a common sight to see them walking down the street with a freshly baked baguette under their arm. This simple yet iconic food represents the French love for good food, their appreciation for the artisanal, and their relaxed lifestyle. Food also plays a crucial role in cultural celebrations. In the United States, Thanksgiving is a major holiday centered around a large meal. The traditional Thanksgiving dinner includes turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie. These foods are not only delicious but also have historical and cultural significance. Turkey, for example, was one of the foods served at the first Thanksgiving feast in 1621, symbolizing the harvest and the cooperation between the Pilgrims and the Native Americans. 24．What does the example of sushi-making in Japan show? A．The importance of rice in Asian diets. B．The high-level culinary skills in Japan. C．The reflection of Japanese culture in food. D．The popularity of sushi in Japan. 25．Why is the baguette important in French culture? A．It is the most popular food in France. B．It represents French cultural values. C．It is easy to make and widely available. D．It is often served with other delicious foods. 26．What can we learn about Thanksgiving food in the United States? A．It has no special cultural meaning. B．It is mainly about enjoying delicious food. C．It symbolizes historical events and cooperation. D．It has changed a lot over the years. 27．What is the main idea of the passage? A．The variety of staple foods in different cultures. B．The role of food in cultural celebrations. C．The importance of food in different countries. D．The deep connection between food and culture. C Everyone is familiar with the colors of the foods they eat. You normally associate salads with green, apples with red, and rice with pink — wait a second, rice is white Well, scientists have synthesized (合成) a new, pinkish rice known as “meaty” rice. If commercialized, this option could be much cheaper than traditional meat in several countries. In South Korea, hybrid (杂交的) rice would be $13 cheaper than the average $15 per kilo of beef. Recently, scientists in South Korea discovered that rice could be a good base for meat cells to grow in as the enzymes (酶) and conditions that the rice provides make it an excellent catalyst for the growth of meat cells. When meat cells were allowed to grow in rice for 11 days, scientists found the final product contained eight percent more protein and seven percent more fat. Some researchers even claim that it has the potential to carry all the vital nutrients we need. Meaty rice has the potential to reduce our impact on the environment and is efficient in terms of cost and emissions. Currently, beef produces around 50 kg of carbon dioxide for every 100 grams of protein produced compared to the roughly 6 kg of emissions that hybrid rice produces. Raising livestock also requires more resources like water which is getting scarce. Some countries like Singapore, the Netherlands, and the United States have already sanctioned lab-grown meat. Meaty rice could be a valuable food source in the military and for space exploration as well as to provide relief during famines. However, many people find the idea of eating food created by a scientific lab unnatural and unappetizing. Italy, for example, recently became the first country in the world to ban lab-grown meat. The country’s Minister of Agriculture shared that the purpose of the ban was to protect Italian traditions and farmers. One thing to note is that the term “lab-grown” is used loosely. Many people associate the term with “artificial” or “manufactured”. While some lab-grown products meet that description, meaty rice is made from naturally growing meat cells. So, while it is indeed grown in a lab, the process itself is natural. 28．What can we know about meaty rice? A．It contains all the nutrients we need. B．It is $2 cheaper than traditional meat. C．It is different in color from traditional rice. D．It provides enzymes for meat cells to grow. 29．What does the underlined word “sanctioned” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Approved. B．Banned. C．Avoided. D．Replaced. 30．Why did Italy ban lab-grown meat? A．Because it has a bad taste. B．Because it lacks nutritious value. C．Because it may harm traditional farming. D．Because it may be resisted by local people. 31．What is the author’s attitude to meaty rice? A．Proud. B．Indifferent. C．Objective. D．Opposed. D If you’re a person who starts the day with a cup of coffee, there may be some good news. A new study published in the European Heart Journal suggests coffee drinkers live longer and healthier lives. The researchers set out to find out if the timing of coffee consumption makes a difference in health benefits. “Given the effects that caffeine (咖啡因) has on our bodies, we wanted to see if the time of day when you drink coffee has any impact on heart health,” Dr. Lu Qi, the study’s main author said. His team surveyed 40,725 adults about their coffee habits. Roughly a third of the participants reported drinking coffee primarily in the morning hours. About 16% consumed coffee throughout the day. And, roughly half of the participants didn’t drink coffee regularly at all. The research team followed participants over the course of a decade. They found that morning coffee drinkers were 16 percent less likely to die of any cause than both the non-coffee drinkers and the all-day drinkers. They were also 31 percent less likely to die of heart disease than either of the other two groups. “This is the first study to test the timing patterns and health outcomes of coffee drinking. Our findings indicate that it’s not just whether you drink coffee or how much you drink, but the time of day when you drink coffee that’s important. We don’t typically give advice about the timing in our dietary guidance, but perhaps we should be thinking about this in the future,” the researchers said. Interestingly, the participants who got the biggest benefit from drinking coffee self-reported they were moderate or heavy morning drinkers, categorized respectively as finishing two to three, or three or more, cups of coffee in the morning hours. Light coffee consumption, downing only one cup before noon, was still related to a lower risk of death than drinking coffee all day or not at all, but to a lesser extent than drinking several cups. Therefore, drink around three cups in the morning to obtain coffee’s greatest cardiovascular (心血管的) benefits. In addition, over roasted coffee can lose antioxidants (抗氧化剂), so for the greatest health benefits, look for a mixture that is still rich in antioxidants. 32．What does Dr. Lu Qi try to stress about the study in paragraph 2? A．Its process. B．Its prospect. C．Its intention. D．Its influence. 33．What can be inferred about the study mentioned in the text? A．It’s rather systematic. B．It’s slightly misleading. C．It’s somewhat limited. D．It’s fairly pioneering. 34．What conclusion can be drawn from the last paragraph? A．The choice of coffee variety matters little to us. B．We should increase the coffee intake gradually. C．Drinking coffee in a slow manner is of great importance. D．The amount of coffee we drink every day makes a difference. 35．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Coffee Drinking Habits: How Much Is Too Much B．Morning Coffee Consumption Linked to Better Health C．New Study Questions the Benefits of Drinking Coffee D．Antioxidants in Coffee: Key to Cardiovascular Benefits 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Being one of the most varied foods, eggs are a great addition to any diet. Not only are they easier to add to just about any meal, but they are also incredibly nutritious (有营养的) and support overall health. 36 ● You may experience better brain function. Eggs provide choline — a key substance that enhances communication between brain cells, ensuring messages are delivered efficiently like a well-organized delivery system. 37 This makes it easier to remember school lessons or daily tasks. What’s more, the nutrients in eggs act like brain fuel, keeping you focused during classes or while doing homework. ● 38 Eating eggs helps protect your eyes with natural substances that act as natural sunglasses, blocking harmful light like screen blue light. Egg yolks contain more eye-guarding nutrients than carrots, reducing eye fatigue (疲劳) during study sessions. So regular egg consumption helps maintain clear vision. ● You can have stronger muscles and bones. 39 Their vitamin D works with other nutrients like calcium and phosphorus to strengthen bones. They can help maintain bone structure and prevent weakness. Regular consumption supports muscle growth during daily activities and keeps bones strong. ● You can feel satisfied for a longer time.

The idea took root during a 2023 trip to Stockholm, where Zhou Yan, a 32-year-old native from Gansu, 56 (notice) something: Japanese ramen (拉面) and Vietnamese pho (米粉) were easy to find, but authentic Chinese noodles were 57 (obvious) absent. Zhou saw an opportunity to introduce Swedes to Lanzhou beef noodles. Zhou quickly began preparations — studying local business regulations, hiring an experienced noodle-pulling chef, securing a location, 58 eventually opening Sweden’s first Lanzhou beef noodle restaurant. Since opening, Ox Lan 59 (see) a steady stream of customers —70 percent of them Swedish. “Customers are fascinated by the artistry of hand-pulled noodles,” Zhou explained. “They’re used to ramen and pho, 60 are often pre-made. Watching dough (面团) transform into noodles in front of them is 61 whole new experience.” Another unique feature is the option to choose 62 seven noodle widths, 63 (range) from 0.5 mm to 50 mm. In Lanzhou, the most popular 64 (choose) is erxi, the fourth thinnest, but in Sweden, people are open to trying all seven options. Zhou is planning to expand further, with three new spots in Spain and ambitions to open restaurants in France and Italy. His goal is 65 (bring) Chinese fast food to major European cities. 第四部分 写作（共两节, 满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 66．假定你是李华，上周五你参加了学校举办的校园美食节活动。请你给英国笔友Lucas写一封邮件分享此次经历，内容包括： (1)活动内容； (2)你的感受。 注意： (1)写作词数应为80个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Dear Lucas, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 第二节（满分25分） 67．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。续写的词数应为150左右。 Every morning before work, my colleague and I have a routine. Right across from our office is a small family-owned breakfast shop run by a friendly couple. Their little shop isn’t fancy, but the food is exceptional, and it’s become our go-to spot to grab something to eat before the day gets busy. The shop has a simple yet delicious menu: steamed buns, xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), steamed dumplings, and sometimes even a bowl of savory zhajiangmian (noodles with fried sauce). Everything is incredibly tasty, and every item we try has its special taste that keeps us coming back for more. But there’s one item we both love above all others: the beef buns. The beef buns are like a treasure we’re always hunting. Perfectly soft, filled with juicy beef, and just the right amount of seasoning-they’re everything you could want in a breakfast bun. But the problem is, we’re not the only ones who think so. The beef buns are always in high demand, and they sell out quickly. In fact, if we manage to get one even once out of five visits, it feels like we’ve struck gold. And if there’s only one left when we order, we always face the dilemma (窘境) of who gets it. Over time, we developed a system for sharing the precious beef bun. If there’s only one left, we take turns eating it. I’d have it this time, and she’d get it the next. Typically, as soon as we enter the shop, one of us will ask, “Do you have beef buns today?” If the answer is no, we settle for another item from the menu, though secretly hoping that one day we’ll find an unlimited supply of our favorite treat. This morning, however, things were different. As we stepped into the shop, we noticed that the shopkeeper’s wife, who’s usually busy managing orders and cooking, had spotted us right away. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 She gave us a big smile, which felt different from the usual polite greeting. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ We both looked at the buns and then at each other, hardly believing our luck. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第3页（共8页） 试题 第4页（共8页） 试题 第1页（共8页） 试题 第2页（共8页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ Unit 3 Food and Culture（单元测试·提升卷） （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 注意事项： 1．本试卷分第Ⅰ卷（选择题）和第Ⅱ卷（非选择题）两部分。答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．回答第Ⅰ卷时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。写在本试卷上无效。 3．回答第Ⅱ卷时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 4．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分 30 分） 做题时，请先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1．Where does the conversation take place?

Entomophagy This is a proper term for eating insects! Numerous people realize that many of our basic food may disappear in the coming decades and insects can offer people good protein (蛋白质) to replace animal meats, so they believe insects are a good choice. It hasn’t quite happened yet because we all think insects are extremely unpleasant. But, many chefs are already experimenting in the field. A number of top chefs in London are using their cooking creativity to turn something unpleasant into something delicious. Tech at the Table Digital products will probably become a common part of our food and drink experiences in the near future. We’re going to see things like tablets and computer screens that can tell stories around the food we are eating. We’ll be able to change the color of plates digitally, because we know that colors can change the taste of food or make it look better. The Experimental Meal The experimental meal is liked by a growing number of people interested in finding new connections between their senses. They think that food is not just what goes into the mouth, but a whole experience. They’re seeing dining — music, lighting, staff uniforms, temperature changes — as a whole meal. They are trying to put different things together instead of having dinner and then going to the theatre, why not bring the two together? The same goes for cinema and music. 21．What is the reason for some people to turn to insects for food? A．The better taste of protein from insects. B．The popularity of some chefs in London. C．The possibility of main food disappearing. D．The performance of some chefs’ experiments. 22．Why is the color of plates changed digitally? A．To make the food healthy. B．To make the food attractive. C．To make the plate funny. D．To make the plate eco-friendly. 23．Why do some people prefer the experimental meal? A．To connect senses in a new way. B．To bring colorful plates together. C．To combine food with digital products. D．To carry out technology experiments. 【答案】21．C 22．B 23．A 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了一些新的就餐趋势。 21．细节理解题。根据第二段“Numerous people realize that many of our basic food may disappear in the coming decades and insects can offer people good protein (蛋白质) to replace animal meats, so they believe insects are a good choice.(许多人意识到我们的许多基本食物可能在未来几十年消失，昆虫可以为人们提供良好的蛋白质来代替动物肉类，所以他们认为昆虫是一个很好的选择)”可知，有些人以昆虫为食的原因是主要食物消失的可能性。故选C。 22．细节理解题。根据第三段“We’ll be able to change the color of plates digitally, because we know that colors can change the taste of food or make it look better.(我们将能够用数字技术改变盘子的颜色，因为我们知道颜色可以改变食物的味道，或者让它看起来更好)”可知，底片的颜色用数码来改变是为了使食物有吸引力。故选B。 23．细节理解题。根据最后一段“The experimental meal is liked by a growing number of people interested in finding new connections between their senses. They think that food is not just what goes into the mouth, but a whole experience. They’re seeing dining—music, lighting, staff uniforms, temperature changes—as a whole meal.(越来越多的人对寻找感官之间的新联系感兴趣，他们喜欢这种实验性的食物。他们认为食物不仅仅是吃进嘴里的东西，而是一种完整的体验。他们把用餐——音乐、灯光、员工制服、温度变化——看作是一顿完整的饭)”可知，有些人更喜欢实验餐是为了以一种新的方式连接感官。故选A。 B Food is not just a means of satisfying hunger; it is deeply intertwined with culture. It reflects the history, traditions, values, and social structures of a society. For example, in many Asian cultures, rice is a staple food that has been cultivated for thousands of years. The way rice is grown, prepared, and served is an integral part of the culture. In Japan, the art of making sushi, which uses rice as a base, is highly regarded. Sushi-making involves precise techniques and an understanding of the quality of ingredients. It is not only a culinary skill but also a cultural expression that reflects the Japanese values of precision, harmony, and respect for nature. In Western cultures, bread holds a significant place. In France, the baguette is more than just a type of bread; it is a symbol of French culture. The process of making a baguette requires patience and skill, from kneading the dough to baking it to a perfect golden-brown crust. French people often enjoy baguettes with cheese, butter, or cold cuts, and it is a common sight to see them walking down the street with a freshly baked baguette under their arm. This simple yet iconic food represents the French love for good food, their appreciation for the artisanal, and their relaxed lifestyle. Food also plays a crucial role in cultural celebrations. In the United States, Thanksgiving is a major holiday centered around a large meal. The traditional Thanksgiving dinner includes turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie. These foods are not only delicious but also have historical and cultural significance. Turkey, for example, was one of the foods served at the first Thanksgiving feast in 1621, symbolizing the harvest and the cooperation between the Pilgrims and the Native Americans. 24．What does the example of sushi-making in Japan show? A．The importance of rice in Asian diets. B．The high-level culinary skills in Japan. C．The reflection of Japanese culture in food. D．The popularity of sushi in Japan. 25．Why is the baguette important in French culture? A．It is the most popular food in France. B．It represents French cultural values. C．It is easy to make and widely available. D．It is often served with other delicious foods. 26．What can we learn about Thanksgiving food in the United States? A．It has no special cultural meaning. B．It is mainly about enjoying delicious food. C．It symbolizes historical events and cooperation. D．It has changed a lot over the years. 27．What is the main idea of the passage? A．The variety of staple foods in different cultures. B．The role of food in cultural celebrations. C．The importance of food in different countries. D．The deep connection between food and culture. 【答案】24．C 25．B 26．C 27．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍食物与文化紧密相连，能反映社会的历史、传统、价值观和社会结构。 24．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“In Japan, the art of making sushi, which uses rice as a base, is highly regarded. Sushi-making involves precise techniques and an understanding of the quality of ingredients. It is not only a culinary skill but also a cultural expression that reflects the Japanese values of precision, harmony, and respect for nature.(在日本，以米饭为基础的寿司制作艺术备受推崇。寿司制作涉及精确的技巧和对食材质量的了解。它不仅是一种烹饪技巧，也是一种文化表达，反映了日本人对精确、和谐和尊重自然的价值观。)”可知，日本寿司制作的例子表明食物中反映了日本文化。故选C项。 25．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In France, the baguette is more than just a type of bread; it is a symbol of French culture. (在法国，法棍面包不仅仅是一种面包，它是法国文化的象征。)”以及“This simple yet iconic food represents the French love for good food, their appreciation for the artisanal, and their relaxed lifestyle.(这种简单而标志性的食物代表了法国人对美食的热爱，对手工艺的欣赏，以及他们轻松的生活方式。)”可知，法棍面包在法国文化中很重要是因为它代表了法国的文化价值观。故选B项。 26．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“These foods are not only delicious but also have historical and cultural significance. Turkey, for example, was one of the foods served at the first Thanksgiving feast in 1621, symbolizing the harvest and the cooperation between the Pilgrims and the Native Americans.(这些食物不仅美味，而且具有历史和文化意义。例如，火鸡是1621年第一次感恩节盛宴上供应的食物之一，象征着收获和清教徒与美洲原住民之间的合作。)”可知，美国的感恩节食物象征着历史事件和合作。故选C项。 27．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中的“Food is not just a means of satisfying hunger; it is deeply intertwined with culture. It reflects the history, traditions, values, and social structures of a society.(食物不仅仅是满足饥饿的一种手段，它与文化深深交织在一起。它反映了一个社会的历史、传统、价值观和社会结构。)”可知，这篇文章的主要思想是食物和文化之间的深层联系。故选D项。 C Everyone is familiar with the colors of the foods they eat. You normally associate salads with green, apples with red, and rice with pink — wait a second, rice is white Well, scientists have synthesized (合成) a new, pinkish rice known as “meaty” rice. If commercialized, this option could be much cheaper than traditional meat in several countries. In South Korea, hybrid (杂交的) rice would be $13 cheaper than the average $15 per kilo of beef. Recently, scientists in South Korea discovered that rice could be a good base for meat cells to grow in as the enzymes (酶) and conditions that the rice provides make it an excellent catalyst for the growth of meat cells. When meat cells were allowed to grow in rice for 11 days, scientists found the final product contained eight percent more protein and seven percent more fat. Some researchers even claim that it has the potential to carry all the vital nutrients we need. Meaty rice has the potential to reduce our impact on the environment and is efficient in terms of cost and emissions. Currently, beef produces around 50 kg of carbon dioxide for every 100 grams of protein produced compared to the roughly 6 kg of emissions that hybrid rice produces. Raising livestock also requires more resources like water which is getting scarce. Some countries like Singapore, the Netherlands, and the United States have already sanctioned lab-grown meat. Meaty rice could be a valuable food source in the military and for space exploration as well as to provide relief during famines. However, many people find the idea of eating food created by a scientific lab unnatural and unappetizing. Italy, for example, recently became the first country in the world to ban lab-grown meat. The country’s Minister of Agriculture shared that the purpose of the ban was to protect Italian traditions and farmers. One thing to note is that the term “lab-grown” is used loosely. Many people associate the term with “artificial” or “manufactured”. While some lab-grown products meet that description, meaty rice is made from naturally growing meat cells. So, while it is indeed grown in a lab, the process itself is natural. 28．What can we know about meaty rice? A．It contains all the nutrients we need. B．It is $2 cheaper than traditional meat. C．It is different in color from traditional rice. D．It provides enzymes for meat cells to grow. 29．What does the underlined word “sanctioned” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Approved. B．Banned. C．Avoided. D．Replaced. 30．Why did Italy ban lab-grown meat? A．Because it has a bad taste. B．Because it lacks nutritious value. C．Because it may harm traditional farming. D．Because it may be resisted by local people. 31．What is the author’s attitude to meaty rice? A．Proud. B．Indifferent. C．Objective. D．Opposed. 【答案】28．C 29．A 30．C 31．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家合成的一种新型粉色“肉味米”的特点、优势、潜在应用以及公众对其的看法。 28．细节理解题。根据第一段中“rice is white(大米是白色的)”及第二段中“Well, scientists have synthesized a new, pinkish rice known as ‘meaty’ rice.(科学家合成了一种新型的、略带粉色的“肉味米”)可知，“肉味米”在颜色上与传统大米不同。故选C。 29．词句猜测题。根据第四段中划线词下文“Meaty rice could be a valuable food source in the military and for space exploration as well as to provide relief during famines.(“肉味米”有望成为军事和太空探索领域宝贵的粮食来源，也可在饥荒时期提供救济)”可知，“肉味米”具有很大的价值，这些国家应是认可了实验室培育的肉，故划线词与A项Approved“认可”意义相近。故选A。 30．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Italy, for example, recently became the first country in the world to ban lab-grown meat. The country’s Minister of Agriculture shared that the purpose of the ban was to protect Italian traditions and farmers.(例如，意大利最近成为世界上第一个禁止实验室培育肉类的国家。该国农业部长表示，禁令的目的是保护意大利的传统和农民)”可知，意大利禁止实验室培育的肉类是因为它可能损害传统农业。故选C。 31．推理判断题。通读全文，文章既介绍了肉味米的优点，如成本低、环保、营养等，也提到了人们对其的担忧和意大利的禁令，客观呈现了相关情况，作者态度是客观的。故选C。 D If you’re a person who starts the day with a cup of coffee, there may be some good news. A new study published in the European Heart Journal suggests coffee drinkers live longer and healthier lives. The researchers set out to find out if the timing of coffee consumption makes a difference in health benefits. “Given the effects that caffeine (咖啡因) has on our bodies, we wanted to see if the time of day when you drink coffee has any impact on heart health,” Dr. Lu Qi, the study’s main author said. His team surveyed 40,725 adults about their coffee habits. Roughly a third of the participants reported drinking coffee primarily in the morning hours. About 16% consumed coffee throughout the day. And, roughly half of the participants didn’t drink coffee regularly at all. The research team followed participants over the course of a decade. They found that morning coffee drinkers were 16 percent less likely to die of any cause than both the non-coffee drinkers and the all-day drinkers. They were also 31 percent less likely to die of heart disease than either of the other two groups. “This is the first study to test the timing patterns and health outcomes of coffee drinking. Our findings indicate that it’s not just whether you drink coffee or how much you drink, but the time of day when you drink coffee that’s important. We don’t typically give advice about the timing in our dietary guidance, but perhaps we should be thinking about this in the future,” the researchers said. Interestingly, the participants who got the biggest benefit from drinking coffee self-reported they were moderate or heavy morning drinkers, categorized respectively as finishing two to three, or three or more, cups of coffee in the morning hours. Light coffee consumption, downing only one cup before noon, was still related to a lower risk of death than drinking coffee all day or not at all, but to a lesser extent than drinking several cups. Therefore, drink around three cups in the morning to obtain coffee’s greatest cardiovascular (心血管的) benefits. In addition, over roasted coffee can lose antioxidants (抗氧化剂), so for the greatest health benefits, look for a mixture that is still rich in antioxidants. 32．What does Dr. Lu Qi try to stress about the study in paragraph 2? A．Its process. B．Its prospect. C．Its intention. D．Its influence. 33．What can be inferred about the study mentioned in the text? A．It’s rather systematic. B．It’s slightly misleading. C．It’s somewhat limited. D．It’s fairly pioneering. 34．What conclusion can be drawn from the last paragraph? A．The choice of coffee variety matters little to us. B．We should increase the coffee intake gradually. C．Drinking coffee in a slow manner is of great importance. D．The amount of coffee we drink every day makes a difference. 35．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．Coffee Drinking Habits: How Much Is Too Much B．Morning Coffee Consumption Linked to Better Health C．New Study Questions the Benefits of Drinking Coffee D．Antioxidants in Coffee: Key to Cardiovascular Benefits 【答案】32．C 33．D 34．D 35．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项新研究，该研究表明喝咖啡的时间对健康有益，早上喝咖啡的人更长寿健康，尤其早上喝三杯左右效果更佳。 32．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Given the effects that caffeine (咖啡因) has on our bodies, we wanted to see if the time of day when you drink coffee has any impact on heart health,” Dr. Lu Qi, the study’s main author said.(该研究的主要作者陆奇博士说：‘考虑到咖啡因对我们身体的影响，我们想看看一天中喝咖啡的时间是否会对心脏健康产生影响。’)可知，陆奇博士强调的是这项研究的意图。故选C项。 33．推理判断题。根据第四段中“This is the first study to test the timing patterns and health outcomes of coffee drinking.(这是第一项测试喝咖啡的时间模式和健康结果的研究)”可知，这是第一项测试喝咖啡的时间模式和健康结果的研究，所以相当具有开创性。故选D项。 34．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Interestingly, the participants who got the biggest benefit from drinking coffee self-reported they were moderate or heavy morning drinkers, categorized respectively as finishing two to three, or three or more, cups of coffee in the morning hours. Light coffee consumption, downing only one cup before noon, was still related to a lower risk of death than drinking coffee all day or not at all, but to a lesser extent than drinking several cups.(有趣的是，从喝咖啡中获益最大的参与者自述为晨间‘中度或重度饮用者’——这类人群分别被定义为在上午饮用两到三杯或三杯以上咖啡。仅在中午前饮用一杯的“轻度咖啡摄入者”虽然仍比全天饮用或完全不喝咖啡者的死亡风险更低，但其保护效果弱于上午饮用多杯的情况)”可知，“中度或重度饮用者”的死亡风险低于“轻度咖啡摄入者”，说明我们每天喝咖啡的量是有影响的。故选D项。 35．主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段中“A new study published in the European Heart Journal suggests coffee drinkers live longer and healthier lives.( 发表在《欧洲心脏杂志》上的一项新研究表明，喝咖啡的人更长寿、更健康)”以及后文对早上喝咖啡的好处的阐述可知，本文主要说明了早上喝咖啡与更好的健康状况有关。故B项“Morning Coffee Consumption Linked to Better Health(早上喝咖啡与更好的健康状况有关)”能概括文章内容，最适合作为文章标题。故选B项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Being one of the most varied foods, eggs are a great addition to any diet.

(通过多吃鸡蛋，你能够显著减少短期内的食物和零食摄入量)”可知，前文指出鸡蛋能让人长时间有饱腹感，本句解释其原因，与下文“减少短期进食和零食”呼应。故G选项“它们是蛋白质和脂肪的理想组合，极其令人满足且有饱腹感”符合语境，故选G。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 The Chinese started eating lamb kebab (羊肉串) about 2,000 years ago. The 41 of instant noodles was an accident by a calligrapher in the Qing Dynasty. They are remarks from a Chinese professor who works to 42 historical and archaeological knowledge to the public through food vlogs. Netizens 43 his distinctive approach to sharing the seemingly dull information in a way that allows 44 to experience various cuisines as inroads into history. Zhang Liangren, a professor at the department of archaeology and cultural relics at Nanjing University, told the Global Times that the 45 behind his food vlogs is to raise funds for his archaeological projects while sharing culinary history knowledge in the hope of 46 young people’s interest in archaeology. “Giving a lecture about archaeology is 47 . But combing archaeology with cuisine makes it 48 to the public,” said the 54-year-old professor. Zhang started shooting videos in July and began to 49 food tasting with relevant history. Transforming complex knowledge into interesting topics 50 his informative vlogs to resonate (产生共鸣) with a large number of netizens. He has since shared his video clips on short video platforms to his 470,000 51 . From selecting restaurants and writing scripts, to 52 and editing, it takes about three days for Zhang and his team to 53 an episode.

The idea took root during a 2023 trip to Stockholm, where Zhou Yan, a 32-year-old native from Gansu, 56 (notice) something: Japanese ramen (拉面) and Vietnamese pho (米粉) were easy to find, but authentic Chinese noodles were 57 (obvious) absent. Zhou saw an opportunity to introduce Swedes to Lanzhou beef noodles. Zhou quickly began preparations — studying local business regulations, hiring an experienced noodle-pulling chef, securing a location, 58 eventually opening Sweden’s first Lanzhou beef noodle restaurant. Since opening, Ox Lan 59 (see) a steady stream of customers —70 percent of them Swedish. “Customers are fascinated by the artistry of hand-pulled noodles,” Zhou explained. “They’re used to ramen and pho, 60 are often pre-made. Watching dough (面团) transform into noodles in front of them is 61 whole new experience.” Another unique feature is the option to choose 62 seven noodle widths, 63 (range) from 0.5 mm to 50 mm. In Lanzhou, the most popular 64 (choose) is erxi, the fourth thinnest, but in Sweden, people are open to trying all seven options. Zhou is planning to expand further, with three new spots in Spain and ambitions to open restaurants in France and Italy. His goal is 65 (bring) Chinese fast food to major European cities. 【答案】 56．noticed 57．obviously 58．and 59．has seen 60．which 61．a 62．from 63．ranging 64．choice 65．to bring 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了来自甘肃的周岩在瑞典首都斯德哥尔摩开设首家兰州牛肉面馆并取得成功的故事。 56．考查动词时态。句意：这个想法源于2023年斯德哥尔摩之旅，当时32岁的甘肃人周岩注意到一件事：日本拉面和越南米粉随处可见，但正宗的中国面条却明显缺失。句子描述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时，空处应用动词的过去式形式。故填noticed。 57．考查副词。句意同上。修饰形容词absent，应用副词obviously“明显地”，作状语。故填obviously。 58．考查连词。句意：周很快开始准备——研究当地商业法规、聘请有经验的拉面厨师、选址，最终开设了瑞典第一家兰州牛肉面馆。studying local business regulations，hiring an experienced noodle-pulling chef，securing a location和eventually opening Sweden’s first Lanzhou beef noodle restaurant为并列关系，应用连词and连接。故填and。 59．考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：自开业以来，Ox Lan餐厅的顾客络绎不绝，其中70%是瑞典人。根据时间状语Since opening可知，句子应用现在完成时，主语Ox Lan为单数，助动词用has。故填has seen。 60．考查定语从句。句意：他们习惯了拉面和米粉，这些通常是预先做好的。空处引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词ramen and pho，先行词在从句中作主语，指物，应用关系代词which引导。故填which。 61．考查冠词。句意：看着面团在他们面前变成面条，这是一种全新的体验。空处泛指一个，且whole以辅音音素开头，应用不定冠词a。故填a。 62．考查介词。句意：另一个独特的特点是可以选择七种面条宽度，从0.5毫米到50毫米不等。choose from是固定搭配，意为“从……中选择”。故填from。 63．考查非谓语动词。句意同上。句中已有谓语动词is，空处在句中作非谓语，与逻辑主语seven noodle widths构成主动关系，应用现在分词作后置定语。故填ranging。 64．考查名词。句意：在兰州，最受欢迎的选择是“二细”，即第四细的面条，但在瑞典，人们愿意尝试所有七种选择。空处应用名词在句中作主语，由is可知，应用单数形式。故填choice。 65．考查非谓语动词。句意：他的目标是将中国快餐带到欧洲主要城市。空处应用动词不定式作表语，说明主语的具体内容。故填to bring。 第四部分 写作（共两节, 满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 66．假定你是李华，上周五你参加了学校举办的校园美食节活动。请你给英国笔友Lucas写一封邮件分享此次经历，内容包括： (1)活动内容； (2)你的感受。 注意： (1)写作词数应为80个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Dear Lucas, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Lucas, I hope everything finds you well!

Right across from our office is a small family-owned breakfast shop run by a friendly couple. Their little shop isn’t fancy, but the food is exceptional, and it’s become our go-to spot to grab something to eat before the day gets busy. The shop has a simple yet delicious menu: steamed buns, xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), steamed dumplings, and sometimes even a bowl of savory zhajiangmian (noodles with fried sauce). Everything is incredibly tasty, and every item we try has its special taste that keeps us coming back for more. But there’s one item we both love above all others: the beef buns. The beef buns are like a treasure we’re always hunting. Perfectly soft, filled with juicy beef, and just the right amount of seasoning-they’re everything you could want in a breakfast bun. But the problem is, we’re not the only ones who think so. The beef buns are always in high demand, and they sell out quickly. In fact, if we manage to get one even once out of five visits, it feels like we’ve struck gold. And if there’s only one left when we order, we always face the dilemma (窘境) of who gets it. Over time, we developed a system for sharing the precious beef bun. If there’s only one left, we take turns eating it. I’d have it this time, and she’d get it the next. Typically, as soon as we enter the shop, one of us will ask, “Do you have beef buns today?” If the answer is no, we settle for another item from the menu, though secretly hoping that one day we’ll find an unlimited supply of our favorite treat. This morning, however, things were different. As we stepped into the shop, we noticed that the shopkeeper’s wife, who’s usually busy managing orders and cooking, had spotted us right away. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 She gave us a big smile, which felt different from the usual polite greeting. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ We both looked at the buns and then at each other, hardly believing our luck. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 She gave us a big smile, which felt different from the usual polite greeting. “We’ve been expecting you,” she said warmly, gesturing toward the kitchen. Her husband emerged carrying a bamboo steamer stacked high with golden-brown buns. “We noticed how much you love these,” he explained, “so today we made extra.” My colleague gasped as the fragrant steam revealed rows of perfectly plump beef buns. The couple explained they’d adjusted their cooking schedule just to ensure their most loyal customers wouldn’t go home disappointed. We both looked at the buns and then at each other, hardly believing our luck. For the first time, there was no need for our sharing routine. As we bit into the juicy buns simultaneously, laughter bubbled up between us. The shopkeepers joined in, their faces glowing with satisfaction. That morning, we lingered longer than usual, savoring not just the food but the warmth of this small kindness. From then on, though beef buns remained limited, we never felt deprived – knowing someone cared enough to create this moment made every bite sweeter. 【导语】本文以早餐日常为线索展开，讲述了两位上班族同事每日清晨必去公司对面一家夫妻早餐店的故事。这家小店虽不起眼，但食物异常美味，尤其是限量供应的牛肉包子更是他们的最爱。由于包子总是供不应求，十次光顾中能买到一次都如同中奖，每当只剩最后一个包子时，两人就会陷入“包子归谁”的甜蜜窘境。为此他们建立了轮流分享的默契机制：这次归我，下次归你。这个持续已久的早餐惯例在某天早晨被打破，老板娘一反常态地主动注意到他们。 【详解】1. 段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“她给了我们一个大大的微笑，这与通常礼貌的问候感觉不同。”可知，第一段可描写老板娘注意到了作者和同事非常喜欢牛肉包，这次特意为作者他们留了一些。 ②由第二段首句内容“我们俩都看了看包子，又面面相觑，简直不敢相信自己的运气。”可知，第二段可描写作者和同事终于不用进行日常的分享，一起快乐的吃着包子，表达了对老板娘的感激。 2. 续写线索：异常关注——拿出包子——解释原因——不敢相信——不用分享——一起快乐的吃包子——感激。 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①出现：emerge/appear ②解释：explain/elucidate ③加入：join in/take part in 情绪类 ①热情地：warmly/enthusiastically ②满足：satisfaction/fulfillment 【点睛】[高分句型1]“We noticed how much you love these,” he explained, “so today we made extra.”(运用了how引导的宾语从句) [高分句型2]As we bit into the juicy buns simultaneously, laughter bubbled up between us.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句) 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 23 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ Unit 3 Food and Culture单元测试·提升卷 （考试时间：100分钟 试卷满分：120分） （参考答案） （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 第一部分 听力（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分） 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 答案 A C C C A C B C A B 题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 B C B A B A C A A B 第二部分 阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2.5分， 满分50分） 21．C 22．B 23．A 24．C 25．B 26．C 27．D 28．C 29．A 30．C 31．C 32．C 33．D 34．D 35．B 36．F 37．D 38．A 39．E 40．G 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 41．B 42．A 43．C 44．B 45．D 46．A 47．C 48．D 49．A 50．B 51．C 52．A 53．C 54．B 55．D 第二节（共10小题；每小题1. 5分, 满分15分） 56．noticed 57．obviously 58．and 59．has seen 60．which 61．a 62．from 63．ranging 64．choice 65．to bring 第四部分 写作（共两节, 满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 66．Dear Lucas, I hope everything finds you well!
