A
Organic food first became popular because many people were worried about the amount of chemicals used to grow the food they ate, as well as the effect of the farming industry on the environment. Different countries have different ideas about ‘organic food’, but in general, farmers do not use chemical pesticides (农药) and fertilizers (化肥). Organic farmers don’t feed any chemicals to farm animals to make the meat fatter and tastier. They also do not grow genetically modified crops. Genetically modified (GM) crops have their genetic structure changed by scientists. These changes are to make them grow bigger, to resist disease, or maybe just to give them a brighter colour or sweeter flavour.
Globally, the sales of organic food have grown steadily every year since the early 1990s. There are several reasons why organic food has become popular.
· People feel that food grown without chemicals is healthier.
· Food bought from local organic farmers, rather than transported long distances, means less pollution from green house gases.
· Farmers are able to get better prices by selling their crops directly, which helps them to pay for the extra costs of growing food organically (有机地).
· Many people say that organic food tastes better!
Organic food was originally sold close to the farm where it was grown. This reduced the environmental impact of transporting it. Farmers would bring their crops to a local market or use vans to drive around local places delivering food. Today, not all organic food is grown locally. Many supermarkets now import it from abroad. The environmental benefits of selling food close to where it is grown are now being lost, even in the organic market.
There are many ways in which you can support the organic food industry, and help the environment:
· You can buy local, rather than imported, organic food from your market.
· You can buy food directly from a farmer.
· Or you can cycle or travel on a bus to buy your organic food instead of driving your car
1. What can we know from the passage?
A. Importing organic food does harm to environment.
B. Only poor people eat organic food.
C. The organic food industry is hard to survive.
D. Lots of fertilizers are used to produce organic food.
2. Which is true of GM crops?
A. There’s no gene in the crops.
B. Most people prefer GM crops.
C. GM crops are genetically changed.
D. Bigger or coloured crops are GM.
3. We can do the following to support the organic industry EXCEPT ________.
A. to buy local organic food from the market
B. to buy food directly from a farmer
C. to travel on a bus to buy organic food
D. to drive your car to buy organic food
【答案】1. A 2. C 3. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了有机食品的定义、流行原因、销售模式的变化,以及支持有机食品行业的方法。
【1题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Today, not all organic food is grown locally. Many supermarkets now import it from abroad. The environmental benefits of selling food close to where it is grown are now being lost, even in the organic market. (今天,并不是所有的有机食品都是当地种植的。现在很多超市从国外进口。在种植地附近销售食品的环境效益现在正在丧失,即使在有机市场上也是如此。)”即进口有机食品导致本地销售的环境优势消失,可推断进口有机食品对环境有负面影响,故选A。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Genetically modified (GM) crops have their genetic structure changed by scientists. (科学家们已经改变了转基因作物的遗传结构。)”可知转基因作物的基因结构被科学家改变,故选C。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“There are many ways in which you can support the organic food industry, and help the environment: · You can buy local, rather than imported, organic food from your market. · You can buy food directly from a farmer. · Or you can cycle or travel on a bus to buy your organic food instead of driving your car. (你可以通过很多方式来支持有机食品行业,并帮助保护环境:·你可以从你的市场购买当地的有机食品,而不是进口的。·你可以直接从农民那里购买食物。·或者你可以骑自行车或乘公共汽车去购买有机食品,而不是开车。)”可知支持有机产业包括购买本地有机食品、直接从农民处购买、乘坐公共交通,故选D。

Make Your Own Sports Drink
Coconut water contains natural electrolytes (电解质) , including potassium and sodium, which are critical to proper nerve and muscle function. Instead of grabbing a commercial sports drink that contains unnecessary sugar, calories, and artificial dyes (染料), mix equal parts coconut water and fresh-squeezed juice (and a dash of raw honey, if you like it sweet) for an all-natural version.
Freeze Fruity Pops (冰棒)
Turn these summer treats into a refueling tool. Blend a hydrating (水合物) fruit such as watermelon (which contains 91.5 percent water) with lemon juice (an excellent source of potassium). Add coconut water for an electrolyte boost and raw honey for a touch of sweetness, if you like. Then fill ice pop molds and freeze for about an hour.
Sip Some Summer Soup
No one wants hot soup on a. summer day. Instead, make a classic gazpacho (番茄冻汤) by blending tomato (which contains 94.5 percent water) and cucumber (which contains 96.7 percent water) with a little garlic and sea salt. Or experiment with cold soups made from other foods with high water content, such as cauliflower, celery, spinach, berries, and zucchini.
Refuel with Milk
One study that appeared in the journal Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism showed that athletes who consumed milk or milk-based products had better fluid retention (保留) than those who drank Powerade. The protein in milk also helps your body recharge after physical exertion. For the healthiest choice, go for fat-free or reduced-fat varieties.
4. We can learn something about the commercial sports drink from the first paragraph EXCEPT _________.
A. It contains sugar, calories, and man-made dyes. B. It is an unnatural drink.
C. There are no electrolytes in it. D. There is no fresh-squeezed juice in it.

【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Instead of grabbing a commercial sports drink that contains unnecessary sugar, calories, and artificial dyes (染料), mix equal parts coconut water and fresh-squeezed juice (and a dash of raw honey, if you like it sweet) for an all-natural version.(与其饮用含有过多糖分、热量和人工色素的商业运动饮料,不如将等量的椰子水与新鲜榨取的果汁混合(如果喜欢甜味的话,还可以加入少许天然蜂蜜,以获得全天然的饮品))”可知,商业饮料中糖分,热量和人工色素过多,并不是天然饮料,也没有天然鲜榨果汁,文章中没有提到不含电解质。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Or experiment with cold soups made from other foods with high water content, such as cauliflower, celery, spinach, berries, and zucchini.(或者可以尝试用其他水分含量高的食材制作冷汤,比如花椰菜、芹菜、菠菜、浆果和西葫芦)”可知,我们可以用许多食物来制作冷汤,但土豆除外。故选D。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“One study that appeared in the journal Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism showed that athletes who consumed milk or milk-based products had better fluid retention (保留) than those who drank Powerade.

【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章介绍四种夏季补水补能自制饮品:用椰子水和鲜榨果汁(可加蜂蜜)做运动饮料,将含水分水果等制成冰棒,制作高水分冷汤,还推荐牛奶(低脂更佳)助补水和身体恢复。即,这是关于美味补水小贴士的一段内容。故选B。

Ice cream is especially popular in the United States. In fact, Americans eat more ice cream than people in any other country. Ice cream is a frozen treat that comes in hundreds of flavours. What’s your favourite flavour? Is it vanilla? That is the most popular flavour by far. Chocolate ranks second in popularity.
Making ice cream is pretty simple. It’s usually made from milk, cream, sugar, and flavourings (调味品). Mix it all together as you freeze it and you get ice cream. As the mixture begins to freeze you can then add fruit, nuts, or chocolate. Soft ice cream is just the ice cream that isn’t fully frozen yet. Some people make ice cream at home in an ice cream mixer, a special kind of home freezer. But nearly all ice cream produced today is made by machines in ice cream factories.
There are many other popular frozen desserts that are similar to ice cream. Sherbet is made from fruit syrup (糖浆) that has milk or egg white added to it. Spumoni is an ice cream with fruits and nuts. Ice milk, also called low-fat ice cream, is a sweetened frozen food made of skim milk.
You can even get ice cream made without milk or cream. Soy ice cream and rice ice cream are made without dairy products. They’re made using soybean milk or rice milk instead.
Ice cream comes in countless flavours. You’ve probably eaten vanilla and chocolate ice cream.
Other favorites include strawberry, cherry, peach, butter pecan, and chocolate mint. But have you ever eaten ice cream flavoured with garlic or green tea? Some people do. You can even buy ice cream flavoured with rose petals!
8. The underlined word “That” in the first paragraph refers to ________.
A. any ice cream B. frozen treat C. flavour D. vanilla
9. What can we know from the second paragraph?
A. We should add nuts after we freeze the mixture.
B Soft ice cream is half frozen ice cream.
C. Most Americans make their ice cream at home.
D. Making ice cream isn’t considered to be simple.
10. The best subtitle of the third paragraph is ________.
A. Desserts in America B. Other frozen desserts
C. Ice cream D. Ice cream with milk
11. What is made of skim milk?
A. Sherbet. B. Spumoni.
C. Low-fat ice cream. D. Soft-serve ice cream.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. B 11. C
【解析】

【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Soft ice cream is just the ice cream that isn’t fully frozen yet. (软冰淇淋就是尚未完全冷冻的冰淇淋)”可知,软冰淇淋是未完全冷冻的,即半冷冻状态。故选B项。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“There are many other popular frozen desserts that are similar to ice cream. (还有许多其他类似的流行冷冻甜点)”可知,本段主要介绍了除冰淇淋之外的其他冷冻甜点,如Sherbet、Spumoni等,因此,本段最佳小标题是“其他冷冻甜点”。故选B项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章由南美洲的探戈切入,介绍了生活中需要双方才能完成的行为。
【36题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:探戈是一种南美舞蹈,两个人之间充满激情和强烈的情感。句中South American dance作先行词,指物,在后面的定语从句中作主语,应用关系代词which/that引导。故填that/which。
【37题详解】
考查动名词作主语。句意:和自己吵架,无论是口头争吵还是打架,看起来都很傻!此处作主语,陈述一般性事实,用动名词形式。故选Fighting。
【38题详解】
考查动名词作主语。句意:一个人跳探戈可能看起来也很傻。句中might look是谓语动词,do是非谓语动词,作主语,陈述一般性事实,用动名词形式。故填doing。
【39题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:我们经常用“it takes two to tango”这个表达来描述一种情况,通常是一种困难的情况,两个人或两方都有同样的责任。固定搭配:use+宾语+to do sth.“用……做某事”,其中不定式作目的状语。故填to describe。
【40题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:我们经常用“it takes two to tango”这个表达来描述一种情况,通常是一种困难的情况,两个人或两方都有同样的责任。此处one指代a situation,作先行词,在后面的定语从句中作地点状语,因此用关系副词where引导。故填where。
【41题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:我们经常用“it takes two to tango”这个表达来描述一种情况,通常是一种困难的情况,两个人或两方都有同样的责任。固定搭配:be to blame,表示“应该被责备”。故填to blame。
【42题详解】
考查动名词作宾语。句意:当两个人或两方负责完成某事时,我们也会使用这个表达。介词for后面用动名词作宾语。故填getting。
【43题详解】
考查不定式作宾语补足语。句意:例如,美国的一些改革需要两党共同努力。固定搭配:need sb. to do sth.“需要某人做某事”,其中动词不定式作宾补。故填to come。
【44题详解】
考查动名词作宾语。句意:有时我们通过省略主语来缩短这种表达,说:“探戈需要两个人。”介词by后面用动名词作宾语,by doing sth.“通过做某事”。故填leaving。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意:就像俗话说的那样,“一个巴掌拍不响。”此处应用名词saying作主语,意为“谚语,名句”。故填saying。

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。
Good friendship can help people overcome almost any difficulty. Many times, a good friend will know what you need before you even ask for it, and they’ll want to offer a helping hand. That’s what happened to two friends, Max and Eric. When disabled young man Eric needed help, his friend Max went above and beyond.
When Eric and Max met, Eric was using a hand-push wheelchair. The chair was becoming kind of a pain for Eric as he had to push his way down the halls from class to class around the school. “My arms would get really tired and I would have to stop and take rests,” said Eric.
Sometimes when they were together, Eric would ask Max to push his wheelchair. Max was willing to help. Most often, Max would offer to help and he noticed how hard using this wheelchair was on his friend. Max thought that if his friend had had an electric wheelchair, life would be easier for him. But Eric’s family was unable to afford it. Seeing how much his friend struggled in his wheelchair, Max made up his mind to do something about it, “He’s been a really good friend and I wanted to do him a favor. I just felt like I needed to do it and I wanted to do it,” Max explained.
Then the enthusiastic high school student decided to take action. He turned to his teacher for help. Knowing Eric’s birthday was in two weeks, the teacher advised giving Eric a surprise.
With the teacher’s help, Max figured out a plan. On the one hand, they posted their wish online in the hope of raising some money for Eric. On the other hand, they called on students in the class to look for after-school part-time jobs to earn money for Eric’s birthday gift.
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。
It turned out that the plan worked fairly well.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
On the evening of Eric’s birthday, his classmates gathered at his house for a party.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 It turned out that the plan worked fairly well. In just a few days, their post online received countless likes and they received some donated money. Meanwhile, many of the students in the class took an active part in working part time after school. Max and several boys took jobs to deal with the grass in the backyards of their neighbors. Some other boys chose to work for nearby restaurants and supermarkets. Some girls got the chance to help in the school library. Just two days before Eric’s birthday, they finally saved enough money.
On the evening of Eric’s birthday, his classmates gathered at his house for a party. They sat around the table, on which lay a big birthday cake. Together, they sang Happy Birthday to Eric, who was sitting in his hand-push wheelchair. Then the candles were lighted and Eric was asked to close his eyes to make a birthday wish. When he opened his eyes, ready to blow out the birthday candles, something shining caught his eyes — a brand new electric wheelchair. That was just his wish. He expressed his gratitude from the bottom of his heart, tears welling up in his eyes. Max felt really delighted that their hard work paid off. They sang and danced, filling the room with cheers and laughter.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A 、B 、C 和 D 四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Organic food first became popular because many people were worried about the amount of chemicals used to grow the food they ate, as well as the effect of the farming industry on the environment. Different countries have different ideas about ‘organic food’, but in general, farmers do not use chemical pesticides (农药) and fertilizers (化肥). Organic farmers don’t feed any chemicals to farm animals to make the meat fatter and tastier. They also do not grow genetically modified crops. Genetically modified (GM) crops have their genetic structure changed by scientists. These changes are to make them grow bigger, to resist disease, or maybe just to give them a brighter colour or sweeter flavour.
Globally, the sales of organic food have grown steadily every year since the early 1990s. There are several reasons why organic food has become popular.
· People feel that food grown without chemicals is healthier.
· Food bought from local organic farmers, rather than transported long distances, means less pollution from green house gases.
· Farmers are able to get better prices by selling their crops directly, which helps them to pay for the extra costs of growing food organically (有机地).
· Many people say that organic food tastes better!
Organic food was originally sold close to the farm where it was grown. This reduced the environmental impact of transporting it. Farmers would bring their crops to a local market or use vans to drive around local places delivering food. Today, not all organic food is grown locally. Many supermarkets now import it from abroad. The environmental benefits of selling food close to where it is grown are now being lost, even in the organic market.
There are many ways in which you can support the organic food industry, and help the environment:
· You can buy local, rather than imported, organic food from your market.
· You can buy food directly from a farmer.
· Or you can cycle or travel on a bus to buy your organic food instead of driving your car.
1. What can we know from the passage?
A. Importing organic food does harm to environment.
B. Only poor people eat organic food.
C. The organic food industry is hard to survive.
D. Lots of fertilizers are used to produce organic food.
2. Which is true of GM crops?
A. There’s no gene in the crops.
B. Most people prefer GM crops.
C. GM crops are genetically changed.
D. Bigger or coloured crops are GM.
3 We can do the following to support the organic industry EXCEPT ________.
A. to buy local organic food from the market
B. to buy food directly from a farmer
C. to travel on a bus to buy organic food
D. to drive your car to buy organic food
B
Make Your Own Sports Drink
Coconut water contains natural electrolytes (电解质) , including potassium and sodium, which are critical to proper nerve and muscle function. Instead of grabbing a commercial sports drink that contains unnecessary sugar, calories, and artificial dyes (染料), mix equal parts coconut water and fresh-squeezed juice (and a dash of raw honey, if you like it sweet) for an all-natural version.
Freeze Fruity Pops (冰棒)
Turn these summer treats into a refueling tool. Blend a hydrating (水合物) fruit such as watermelon (which contains 91.5 percent water) with lemon juice (an excellent source of potassium). Add coconut water for an electrolyte boost and raw honey for a touch of sweetness, if you like. Then fill ice pop molds and freeze for about an hour.
Sip Some Summer Soup
No one wants hot soup on a. summer day. Instead, make a classic gazpacho (番茄冻汤) by blending tomato (which contains 94.5 percent water) and cucumber (which contains 96.7 percent water) with a little garlic and sea salt. Or experiment with cold soups made from other foods with high water content, such as cauliflower, celery, spinach, berries, and zucchini.
Refuel with Milk
One study that appeared in the journal Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism showed that athletes who consumed milk or milk-based products had better fluid retention (保留) than those who drank Powerade. The protein in milk also helps your body recharge after physical exertion. For the healthiest choice, go for fat-free or reduced-fat varieties.
4. We can learn something about the commercial sports drink from the first paragraph EXCEPT _________.
A. It contains sugar, calories, and man-made dyes. B. It is an unnatural drink.
C. There are no electrolytes in it. D. There is no fresh-squeezed juice in it.
5. We can use many foods to make cold soups EXCEPT _________.
A. Celery B. Apple C. Strawberry D. Potato
6. When you finished a sport exercise, you should drink _________ to regain energy.
A. Sports Drink B. Freeze Fruity Pops
C. Cold-Soup D. Milk-based products
7. This is a passage of _________.
A. Research for health B. Tips for delicious hydration
C. News for healthy foods. D. Experiment report
C
Ice cream is especially popular in the United States. In fact, Americans eat more ice cream than people in any other country. Ice cream is a frozen treat that comes in hundreds of flavours. What’s your favourite flavour? Is it vanilla? That is the most popular flavour by far. Chocolate ranks second in popularity.
Making ice cream is pretty simple. It’s usually made from milk, cream, sugar, and flavourings (调味品). Mix it all together as you freeze it and you get ice cream. As the mixture begins to freeze you can then add fruit, nuts, or chocolate. Soft ice cream is just the ice cream that isn’t fully frozen yet. Some people make ice cream at home in an ice cream mixer, a special kind of home freezer. But nearly all ice cream produced today is made by machines in ice cream factories.
There are many other popular frozen desserts that are similar to ice cream. Sherbet is made from fruit syrup (糖浆) that has milk or egg white added to it. Spumoni is an ice cream with fruits and nuts. Ice milk, also called low-fat ice cream, is a sweetened frozen food made of skim milk.
You can even get ice cream made without milk or cream. Soy ice cream and rice ice cream are made without dairy products. They’re made using soybean milk or rice milk instead.
Ice cream comes in countless flavours. You’ve probably eaten vanilla and chocolate ice cream.
Other favorites include strawberry, cherry, peach, butter pecan, and chocolate mint. But have you ever eaten ice cream flavoured with garlic or green tea? Some people do. You can even buy ice cream flavoured with rose petals!
8. The underlined word “That” in the first paragraph refers to ________.
A. any ice cream B. frozen treat C. flavour D. vanilla
9. What can we know from the second paragraph?
A. We should add nuts after we freeze the mixture.
B. Soft ice cream is half frozen ice cream.
C. Most Americans make their ice cream at home.
D. Making ice cream isn’t considered to be simple.
10. The best subtitle of the third paragraph is ________.
A. Desserts in America B. Other frozen desserts
C. Ice cream D. Ice cream with milk
11. What is made of skim milk?
A. Sherbet. B. Spumoni.
C. Low-fat ice cream. D. Soft-serve ice cream.

Here are some foods that are popular all around the world. Which country did each of them come from? Read on to find out!

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。
Good friendship can help people overcome almost any difficulty. Many times, a good friend will know what you need before you even ask for it, and they’ll want to offer a helping hand. That’s what happened to two friends, Max and Eric. When disabled young man Eric needed help, his friend Max went above and beyond.
When Eric and Max met, Eric was using a hand-push wheelchair. The chair was becoming kind of a pain for Eric as he had to push his way down the halls from class to class around the school. “My arms would get really tired and I would have to stop and take rests,” said Eric.
Sometimes when they were together, Eric would ask Max to push his wheelchair. Max was willing to help. Most often, Max would offer to help and he noticed how hard using this wheelchair was on his friend. Max thought that if his friend had had an electric wheelchair, life would be easier for him. But Eric’s family was unable to afford it. Seeing how much his friend struggled in his wheelchair, Max made up his mind to do something about it, “He’s been a really good friend and I wanted to do him a favor. I just felt like I needed to do it and I wanted to do it,” Max explained.
Then the enthusiastic high school student decided to take action. He turned to his teacher for help. Knowing Eric’s birthday was in two weeks, the teacher advised giving Eric a surprise.
With the teacher’s help, Max figured out a plan. On the one hand, they posted their wish online in the hope of raising some money for Eric. On the other hand, they called on students in the class to look for after-school part-time jobs to earn money for Eric’s birthday gift.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
