One restaurant owner in Lanzhou, Southwest China’s Gansu Province, has combined these two favorites to create the “mahjong dumplings”, winning over thousands of netizens’ hearts and stomachs.      ________ Although the thought of eating locusts or other insects might scare many people, students and teachers wolfed down foods made with more than 10 kinds of edible (可食用的) insects during a special party at the Chengdu campus of Sichuan Agricultural University. Two associate professors worked with a student association to organize the activity in order to remove people’s misunderstanding about insects. “Insects are healthy to eat as they contain a lot of iron and calcium, as well as essential amino acids (氨基酸).” they said.      SW China’s Chongqing Treats Tourists to Hot Pots While Sitting in Ice Buckets A water park in Chongqing has recently offered a special treat to visitors—enjoying hot pots while sitting in ice buckets in an outdoor swimming pool, as the summer heat continues.

You may have seen many pumpkins (南瓜) in posters and TV shows recently, since Halloween came on Oct 31. Lanterns (灯笼) made of pumpkins are often seen during Halloween. Many people in the US like to make them and put them in front of their houses. People hollow out (挖空) a pumpkin, carve (雕刻) a face on one side, and place a candle inside to make the pumpkin glow. The lanterns can look funny or scary. This is not the only way in which pumpkins are part of American culture. During the Thanksgiving holiday, pumpkin pie is a common food. It is made from pumpkins and has some delicious spices to give it a nice flavor (味道). People often put some whipped (搅打过的) cream on top of it before serving it. It is one of my favorite things to eat during Thanksgiving. There is also “pumpkin chucking (丢)”. It’s a competition where people build machines to throw pumpkins through the air. The person whose pumpkin flies the farthest wins the competition. The world record for pumpkin chucking was set in Utah in 2010. The distance for that world record was about 1.69 kilometers.

It found something surprising: eating lots of ultra-processed (超加工) foods (UPFs) can make it more difficult to lose weight, even if the diet follows national healthy-eating advice. ②The research tested 10 people for a few months. They were asked to follow an 8-week diet, eating minimally (最低限度) processed foods (MPFs), such as home-cooked meals, and another 8-week diet, eating UPFs. UPFs are made by many foods with additives (添加剂) and other ingredients (配料)—just like in some snacks and ready-to-eat meals. Both diets followed the UK’s Eatwell Guide. Between the two diets, the participants (参与者) ate their usual food for 4 weeks to set their bodies back to how they are at the beginning of the research. All meals, snacks and drinks were sent to their homes, but they could choose how much to eat and when. This made the study feel more like real life. ③The results showed that people lost weight on both diets. But people on the MPF diet lost much more weight. They lost 1.84 kg. People on the UPF diet lost only 0.88 kg. So, the MPF group lost twice as much weight. MPFs also helped people lose body fat. They also helped people eat just the right amount of food. UPFs did not help in these ways. ④Why is it harder to lose weight with UPFs? The study says the way they are made is important. Making UPFs changes the food. This can make you feel full more slowly. So, people may eat more food without knowing it. Additives and heat may also change gut bacteria (肠道菌群). This can make it harder to control weight. ⑤In the UK, over half of people’s daily energy comes from UPFs. Similar situations are in other European countries and the United States. UPFs are the first choice of people who earn less money because they are much cheaper. ⑥Researchers say the food environment also matters. Unhealthy diets are often not a result of personal choice but a result of food environment around us. People already know they have too much salt and sugar. However, UPFs are cheap and easy-to-get. They bring more money to sellers. ⑦This study is the longest-lasting one of its kind in real-life situations among similar studies. It helps people know the importance of realizing what healthy foods are. And the national diet guide should pay more attention to food processing. 24．Which picture can show the results of the research? A． B． C．D． 25．According to the study, what is TRUE about the two diets? A．People eating UPFs lost more weight than those eating MPFs. B．People eating MPFs lost almost the same weight as those eating UPFs. C．People eating MPFs lost twice as much weight as those eating UPFs. D．People eating UPFs found it easier to control how much they ate. 26．Why did the researchers ask participants to return to their usual food for four weeks between the two diets? A．To see which kind of food participants liked more. B．To help participants get into a healthy eating habit slowly. C．To give their bodies a break and let them relax from the study. D．To make sure the first diet didn’t change the results of the second one. 27．What is the best structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 5. Chinese noodles have a long history. They were first mentioned in the Eastern Han Dynasty over 1,900 years ago. At that time, noodles were called “cakes”. They were “cakes” that were boiled in water. From the beginning of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, there were written records about noodles. “Mian” became the name of noodles in the Song Dynasty. Before that, there was no specific name for this kind of food. There are all kinds of noodles, such as cold noodles, warm noodles and fried noodles. There are also all kinds of noodle making methods, such as brushing, pressing, rolling and pulling. China is where many kinds of food originated (起源), including the noodles, such as spaghetti, which we think came from other countries. In the Yuan Dynasty, Marco Polo came to China. He learned to make noodles, and then taught the method when he went back to his country. In 1912, the traditional Chinese method of noodle making was brought to Japan. Japanese noodles were first called “Dragon Noodles”, meaning food eaten by the Chinese—the descendants (后代) of the dragon. Among all Chinese noodles, the most special type may be Yi Noodles (伊府面). They were created in the Qing Dynasty by a chef who worked for Yi Bingshou, the governor of Huizhou. The chef was good at cooking but found it challenging to cook for so many guests visiting Mr. Yi’s home every day. Then he created Yi Noodles. Now Yi Noodles are made in both southern and northern China, but Fujian and Jiangxi Provinces are the most famous for making Yi Noodles. Yi Noodles can be served dry or with soup. Since Yi Noodles are similar to modern instant noodles (方便面), they are considered to be the father of modern instant noodles. 1．When did “Mian” become the name of noodles? A．In the Eastern Han Dynasty. B．In the Tang Dynasty. C．In the Song Dynasty. D．In the Yuan Dynasty. 2．What can we learn from Paragraph 4? A．There were no written records of noodles until the Yuan Dynasty. B．In ancient China, only poor people ate noodles. C．Chinese noodles came from Italy. ．Japanese noodles were first called “Dragon Noodles”. 13．What does the underlined word “chef” in Paragraph 5 mean in Chinese? A．知府 B．老板 C．厨师 D．食客 4．What’s the correct order according to the text? ① The traditional Chinese method of noodle making was brought to Japan. ② The method of making noodles was taught in Marco Polo’s country. ③ “Mian” became the name of noodles. ④ A chef created Yi Noodles. A．③②①④ B．③②④① C．②③①④ D．②③④① 5．What can be the best title for the text? A．The Culture of Chinese Noodles B．The Legend (传奇) of Instant Noodles C．The Methods of Noodle Making D．The History of Yi Noodles 4、 任务型阅读。 1. When facing a hard exam, many students stay up late and work hard with lots of notes, but tired brains only bring anxiety and silly mistakes appear easily. Lily, 15, used to study the whole unit after midnight, but her maths score still dropped to 67. One March evening she set her alarm for 25 minutes by accident; when it rang she stood up, stretched and sang her favorite song a little before sitting down again, and was surprised to find the next part of the text stuck in her mind right away. She then planned her revision in “study-sprint” parts: 25 minutes of careful work followed by 5 minutes of moving—stretching, climbing stairs or jumping rope at the back door. After four such parts, she took a longer 30-minute walk around the playground, letting the spring wind make her head clear. This way, called structured breaks, is like small, planned stops that make the brain work again, just like restarting a frozen phone. Short rests help memory become better, last longer and lower the stress. Scientists at Stanford later put 200 students into two groups: one studied three hours without stopping, the other used structured breaks; after four weeks the break group’s average test scores went up by 20%, while the non-stop group had no improvement and even said they had more headaches. People who don’t believe it still say breaks waste time, but the numbers show the opposite—rested brains solve problems faster and make fewer silly mistakes. Experts so give three important rules: set a clear timer to fix your break time, drink a glass of water, and move your body—climb stairs, jump rope or just stand up—to send oxygen (氧气) to the brain. After doing these steps, Lily’s next maths paper went up to 91. Staying up late can not make scores better. However, 76 . Structured breaks mean taking active breaks between short study parts. With their help, the brain works again so that 77 . Some people fear that rests are 78 , but a study shows that the break group’s scores rose 20% while the non-stop group saw no gain. To get effective breaks, 79 are suggested by experts. 2. Chinese people think honesty (诚实) is very important. Many stories throughout history show us the importance of this virtue. Let’s take a look at two of them. The first story is about Ji Bu, a general (将军) in the Western Han Dynasty. Whenever Ji made a promise, he would do everything he could to keep it. People respected his honesty, and a saying widely spread, “It is better to have a promise from Ji Bu than to get lots of gold (黄金).” Later, the saying turned into an idiom, “A promise is worth (值) lots of gold.” Even today, we still use it to describe an honest person. The other story is about a businessman named Li Daquan. During the Qing Dynasty, people mainly used gold, silver and copper as money. It was all heavy. Carrying a lot of money was also risky (有风险的) because people could be robbed. One day, a friend suggested that Li set up bank branches (分行) and use drafts (汇票). When people put their money in one branch, they would get a draft. They could then use the draft to get their money back from other branches. Li liked the idea and acted quickly. Words soon got around. Li’s honesty in running his bank brought him many customers. His bank, called Rishengchang, grew to 35 branches across the country. As China’s first modern bank, it paved (铺设) the way for the banking system in the country. 1．Was Ji Bu a general from Qing Dynasty? 2．What did Li’s honesty in running his bank bring to him? 3．How did the drafts change the way people carried their money? 4．Just as the idiom says, “A promise is worth lots of gold.” What did you do to keep one of your promises? Please give an example. (no more than 25 words) 3. Imagine you’re at the supermarket. You pay for some food, then throw one third of it into the trash. This may sound crazy, but millions of us are doing this around the world. According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, over 30 percent of the food worldwide goes to waste (浪费). Most of it is thrown away by shops that are unable to sell it, or by people who buy too much. China thinks up a great idea-building “banks” for food that we can’t eat. Some people in Shanghai recently put a fridge in a community (社区), filling it with cakes and canned (罐装的) food from nearby markets and restaurants. It’s free for anyone to enjoy. Which region wastes the most food? According to the UN, about 1.3 billion tons (吨) of food was lost or wasted in 2015. However, some 795 million people do not have enough food to lead a healthy life. Check the chart below, and find out which region wastes the most food. Leftover rice gets a new life Boiled rice is probably one of the most common leftovers (剩饭菜) in Chinese kitchens.

You may have seen many pumpkins (南瓜) in posters and TV shows recently, since Halloween came on Oct 31. Lanterns (灯笼) made of pumpkins are often seen during Halloween. Many people in the US like to make them and put them in front of their houses. People hollow out (挖空) a pumpkin, carve (雕刻) a face on one side, and place a candle inside to make the pumpkin glow. The lanterns can look funny or scary. This is not the only way in which pumpkins are part of American culture. During the Thanksgiving holiday, pumpkin pie is a common food. It is made from pumpkins and has some delicious spices to give it a nice flavor (味道). People often put some whipped (搅打过的) cream on top of it before serving it. It is one of my favorite things to eat during Thanksgiving. There is also “pumpkin chucking (丢)”. It’s a competition where people build machines to throw pumpkins through the air. The person whose pumpkin flies the farthest wins the competition. The world record for pumpkin chucking was set in Utah in 2010. The distance for that world record was about 1.69 kilometers.

It found something surprising: eating lots of ultra-processed (超加工) foods (UPFs) can make it more difficult to lose weight, even if the diet follows national healthy-eating advice. ②The research tested 10 people for a few months. They were asked to follow an 8-week diet, eating minimally (最低限度) processed foods (MPFs), such as home-cooked meals, and another 8-week diet, eating UPFs. UPFs are made by many foods with additives (添加剂) and other ingredients (配料)—just like in some snacks and ready-to-eat meals. Both diets followed the UK’s Eatwell Guide. Between the two diets, the participants (参与者) ate their usual food for 4 weeks to set their bodies back to how they are at the beginning of the research. All meals, snacks and drinks were sent to their homes, but they could choose how much to eat and when. This made the study feel more like real life. ③The results showed that people lost weight on both diets. But people on the MPF diet lost much more weight. They lost 1.84 kg. People on the UPF diet lost only 0.88 kg. So, the MPF group lost twice as much weight. MPFs also helped people lose body fat. They also helped people eat just the right amount of food. UPFs did not help in these ways. ④Why is it harder to lose weight with UPFs? The study says the way they are made is important. Making UPFs changes the food. This can make you feel full more slowly. So, people may eat more food without knowing it. Additives and heat may also change gut bacteria (肠道菌群). This can make it harder to control weight. ⑤In the UK, over half of people’s daily energy comes from UPFs. Similar situations are in other European countries and the United States. UPFs are the first choice of people who earn less money because they are much cheaper. ⑥Researchers say the food environment also matters. Unhealthy diets are often not a result of personal choice but a result of food environment around us. People already know they have too much salt and sugar. However, UPFs are cheap and easy-to-get. They bring more money to sellers. ⑦This study is the longest-lasting one of its kind in real-life situations among similar studies. It helps people know the importance of realizing what healthy foods are. And the national diet guide should pay more attention to food processing. 24．Which picture can show the results of the research? A． B． C．D． 25．According to the study, what is TRUE about the two diets? A．People eating UPFs lost more weight than those eating MPFs. B．People eating MPFs lost almost the same weight as those eating UPFs. C．People eating MPFs lost twice as much weight as those eating UPFs. D．People eating UPFs found it easier to control how much they ate. 26．Why did the researchers ask participants to return to their usual food for four weeks between the two diets? A．To see which kind of food participants liked more. B．To help participants get into a healthy eating habit slowly. C．To give their bodies a break and let them relax from the study. D．To make sure the first diet didn’t change the results of the second one. 27．What is the best structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 【答案】24—27 DCDB 【解析】本文介绍了一项研究发现，经常食用超加工食品会阻碍减肥效果，并强调食品加工方式对健康饮食和体重管理的重要影响。 24．推理判断题。根据“The results showed that people lost weight on both diets. But people on the MPF diet lost much more weight. They lost 1.84 kg. People on the UPF diet lost only 0.88 kg. So, the MPF group lost twice as much weight.”可知，两种饮食都能减重，但低加工食品（MPF）饮食组减重是超加工食品（UPF）饮食组的两倍。故选D。 25．细节理解题。根据“So, the MPF group lost twice as much weight.”可知，吃MPF的人比吃UPF的人减掉了两倍的体重。故选C。 26．细节理解题。根据“Between the two diets, the participants (参与者) ate their usual food for 4 weeks to set their bodies back to how they are at the beginning of the research.”可知，目的是让身体回到研究开始时的状态，确保第一阶段饮食不会影响第二阶段的结果。故选D。 27．篇章结构题。通读全文可知，①段引出研究；②段介绍研究的具体开展（时长、参与者饮食安排等）；③段呈现研究结果及相关影响；④⑤⑥段分析超加工食品难减重的原因；⑦段总结研究意义。B选项符合文章结构。故选B。 5. Chinese noodles have a long history. They were first mentioned in the Eastern Han Dynasty over 1,900 years ago. At that time, noodles were called “cakes”. They were “cakes” that were boiled in water. From the beginning of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, there were written records about noodles. “Mian” became the name of noodles in the Song Dynasty. Before that, there was no specific name for this kind of food. There are all kinds of noodles, such as cold noodles, warm noodles and fried noodles. There are also all kinds of noodle making methods, such as brushing, pressing, rolling and pulling. China is where many kinds of food originated (起源), including the noodles, such as spaghetti, which we think came from other countries. In the Yuan Dynasty, Marco Polo came to China. He learned to make noodles, and then taught the method when he went back to his country. In 1912, the traditional Chinese method of noodle making was brought to Japan. Japanese noodles were first called “Dragon Noodles”, meaning food eaten by the Chinese—the descendants (后代) of the dragon. Among all Chinese noodles, the most special type may be Yi Noodles (伊府面). They were created in the Qing Dynasty by a chef who worked for Yi Bingshou, the governor of Huizhou. The chef was good at cooking but found it challenging to cook for so many guests visiting Mr. Yi’s home every day. Then he created Yi Noodles. Now Yi Noodles are made in both southern and northern China, but Fujian and Jiangxi Provinces are the most famous for making Yi Noodles. Yi Noodles can be served dry or with soup. Since Yi Noodles are similar to modern instant noodles (方便面), they are considered to be the father of modern instant noodles. 1．When did “Mian” become the name of noodles? A．In the Eastern Han Dynasty. B．In the Tang Dynasty. C．In the Song Dynasty. D．In the Yuan Dynasty. 2．What can we learn from Paragraph 4? A．There were no written records of noodles until the Yuan Dynasty. B．In ancient China, only poor people ate noodles. C．Chinese noodles came from Italy. ．Japanese noodles were first called “Dragon Noodles”. 13．What does the underlined word “chef” in Paragraph 5 mean in Chinese?

When facing a hard exam, many students stay up late and work hard with lots of notes, but tired brains only bring anxiety and silly mistakes appear easily. Lily, 15, used to study the whole unit after midnight, but her maths score still dropped to 67. One March evening she set her alarm for 25 minutes by accident; when it rang she stood up, stretched and sang her favorite song a little before sitting down again, and was surprised to find the next part of the text stuck in her mind right away. She then planned her revision in “study-sprint” parts: 25 minutes of careful work followed by 5 minutes of moving—stretching, climbing stairs or jumping rope at the back door. After four such parts, she took a longer 30-minute walk around the playground, letting the spring wind make her head clear. This way, called structured breaks, is like small, planned stops that make the brain work again, just like restarting a frozen phone. Short rests help memory become better, last longer and lower the stress. Scientists at Stanford later put 200 students into two groups: one studied three hours without stopping, the other used structured breaks; after four weeks the break group’s average test scores went up by 20%, while the non-stop group had no improvement and even said they had more headaches. People who don’t believe it still say breaks waste time, but the numbers show the opposite—rested brains solve problems faster and make fewer silly mistakes. Experts so give three important rules: set a clear timer to fix your break time, drink a glass of water, and move your body—climb stairs, jump rope or just stand up—to send oxygen (氧气) to the brain. After doing these steps, Lily’s next maths paper went up to 91. Staying up late can not make scores better. However, 76 . Structured breaks mean taking active breaks between short study parts. With their help, the brain works again so that 77 . Some people fear that rests are 78 , but a study shows that the break group’s scores rose 20% while the non-stop group saw no gain. To get effective breaks, 79 are suggested by experts. 【答案】76．structured breaks improve learning/scores/grades 77．people can improve the memory and reduce/lower stress 78．a waste of time 79．three important rules/ timer, water and (body) movement 【导语】本文主要介绍了短暂休息给学习带来的好处。 76．根据题干“However”可知，前后为转折关系；根据“one studied three hours without stopping, the other used structured breaks; after four weeks the break group’s average test scores went up by 20%, while the non-stop group had no improvement and even said they had more headaches.”可知，短暂的休息有助于提升学生的学习成绩。故填structured breaks improve learning/scores/grades。 77．根据“This way, called structured breaks, is like small, planned stops that make the brain work again, just like restarting a frozen phone. Short rests help memory become better, last longer and lower the stress.”可知，短暂的休息可以让记忆更好，记忆时间更持久并且降低压力。故填people can improve the memory and reduce/lower stress。 78．根据“People who don’t believe it still say breaks waste time”可知，一些人觉得休息是浪费时间。故填a waste of time。 79．根据“Experts so give three important rules: set a clear timer to fix your break time, drink a glass of water, and move your body—climb stairs, jump rope or just stand up—to send oxygen (氧气) to the brain.”可知，为了得到有效的休息，专家给出了三点建议——设置定时器、喝水和肢体运动。故填three important rules/ timer, water and (body) movement。 2. Chinese people think honesty (诚实) is very important. Many stories throughout history show us the importance of this virtue. Let’s take a look at two of them. The first story is about Ji Bu, a general (将军) in the Western Han Dynasty. Whenever Ji made a promise, he would do everything he could to keep it. People respected his honesty, and a saying widely spread, “It is better to have a promise from Ji Bu than to get lots of gold (黄金).” Later, the saying turned into an idiom, “A promise is worth (值) lots of gold.” Even today, we still use it to describe an honest person. The other story is about a businessman named Li Daquan. During the Qing Dynasty, people mainly used gold, silver and copper as money. It was all heavy. Carrying a lot of money was also risky (有风险的) because people could be robbed. One day, a friend suggested that Li set up bank branches (分行) and use drafts (汇票). When people put their money in one branch, they would get a draft. They could then use the draft to get their money back from other branches. Li liked the idea and acted quickly. Words soon got around. Li’s honesty in running his bank brought him many customers. His bank, called Rishengchang, grew to 35 branches across the country. As China’s first modern bank, it paved (铺设) the way for the banking system in the country. 1．Was Ji Bu a general from Qing Dynasty? 2．What did Li’s honesty in running his bank bring to him? 3．How did the drafts change the way people carried their money? 4．Just as the idiom says, “A promise is worth lots of gold.” What did you do to keep one of your promises? Please give an example. (no more than 25 words) 【答案】1．No, he wasn’t. 2．Many customers. 3．People used drafts to get money back from branches instead of carrying heavy cash. 44．I promised to help a friend study, and I kept it by spending the weekend reviewing with him. 【知识点】记叙文、历史人物 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，文章通过西汉将军季布信守承诺和清代商人李大全诚信经营创立日升昌票号两个故事展现了诚实这一美德的重要性。 1．根据“The first story is about Ji Bu, a general (将军) in the Western Han Dynasty.”可知，季布是西汉时期的将军，应作否定回答。故填No, he wasn’t. 2．根据“Li’s honesty in running his bank brought him many customers.”可知，李经营银行的诚实给他带来了许多客户。故填Many customers. 3．根据“During the Qing Dynasty, people mainly used gold, silver and copper as money. It was all heavy.”和“When people put their money in one branch, they would get a draft. They could then use the draft to get their money back from other branches.”可知，过去人们要携带沉重的金、银、铜，但有了汇票后，人们可以用汇票从银行的分行里取回自己的钱。故填People used drafts to get money back from branches instead of carrying heavy cash. 4．开放性作答，言之有理即可。参考答案为I promised to help a friend study, and I kept it by spending the weekend reviewing with him. 3. Imagine you’re at the supermarket. You pay for some food, then throw one third of it into the trash. This may sound crazy, but millions of us are doing this around the world. According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, over 30 percent of the food worldwide goes to waste (浪费). Most of it is thrown away by shops that are unable to sell it, or by people who buy too much. China thinks up a great idea-building “banks” for food that we can’t eat. Some people in Shanghai recently put a fridge in a community (社区), filling it with cakes and canned (罐装的) food from nearby markets and restaurants. It’s free for anyone to enjoy. Which region wastes the most food? According to the UN, about 1.3 billion tons (吨) of food was lost or wasted in 2015. However, some 795 million people do not have enough food to lead a healthy life. Check the chart below, and find out which region wastes the most food. Leftover rice gets a new life Boiled rice is probably one of the most common leftovers (剩饭菜) in Chinese kitchens. Rather than throw it away, why not try the Western recipe to change last night’s leftovers into today’s lunch? Rice pudding What you need: cooked rice, milk, sugar or honey. Put rice in a pan, cover it with milk, and stir (搅拌) over a medium heat until the milk begins to boil. Turn down the heat a little bit and add sugar. Keep stirring. When the rice expands (膨胀), it’s ready to enjoy. 1．How much food is wasted according to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization? __________________________________________ 2．Who usually throws away the food?
