Two ladies lived next to each other. One day, one of the ladies said to the other, “I have lived here for five years, but I have never met you before. Could I have your name, please?” The other replied, “I am Li Hua. I moved here three years ago. What should I call you?”
It seems strange that people living next to each other don’t know each other for such a long time. However, this kind of story is often heard in many cities. With the rising of living standards(水平), many people have moved into modern buildings. They like to stay at home, enjoying the modern life in their houses. They seldom go out after they get home from work. They have little contact (联系) with their neighbours and don’t care about what is happening in the neighbourhood.
Our life is getting better and better, but the relationship between neighbours is not as close as before. Good relationship of neighbours is important to people. People need trust and understanding all the time. Now, we should do something to make a change. People living in the same neighbourhood should be organized to have some social activities so that they can have a better understanding of each other.
1.What can we know about the two ladies in Paragraph 1?
A.They’re friends. B.They’re sisters.
C.They’re neighbours. D.They’re workmates.
2.What does the underlined word “strange” mean in Chinese?
A.可恶的 B.可笑的 C.可怜的 D.奇怪的
3.What do many people do after they get home from work now?
A.They often go out to have all kinds of activities.
B.They do something to help their neighbours.

【答案】1.C 2.D 3.C 4.B
【导语】本文讲述了两位女士作为邻居却长时间互不相识的现象,进而引出在现代生活中邻里关系不再像以前那样亲密的问题,并强调了良好邻里关系的重要性,呼吁人们做出改变。
1.根据文章第一段“Two ladies lived next to each other.”可知,这两位女士是邻居。
2.根据文章第二段“It seems...don’t know each other for such a long time.”以及后文提到这种现象在很多城市经常听到,可知这种邻里之间长时间互不相识的情况是“奇怪的”,所以“strange”意为“奇怪的”。

4.根据文章第三段“Our life is getting better and better, but the relationship between neighbours is not as close as before.”可知,以前的邻里关系很亲密。
There are various ways to travel in a big city.
Taking the subway is a popular way. It is fast and can take you to different parts of the city quickly. However, it can be very crowded during rush hours. You may have to stand for a long time.
Riding a shared bike is also a good choice. It is convenient and you can stop anywhere you want. It’s also good for your health. But sometimes, it’s hard to find a shared bike when you need it.
Taking a taxi is the most convenient way. The driver can take you directly to the place you want to go. But it is expensive, and you may get stuck in traffic jams.
Now, more and more people choose to use ride-hailing apps like Didi. It’s like taking a taxi but usually costs less. Maybe in the future, there will be even more convenient ways to travel in cities.

重难语篇练习
These days, community canteens (社区食堂) are very popular with young people. Many of them are very busy and don’t have time to cook, so these community canteens are great places for them to have meals.
Community canteens meet the needs of young people in many ways. For example, a community canteen in Hangzhou extends opening hours for young people. Older people usually eat early, so the canteen closed at 6:00 p.m. before. But now it closes an hour and a half later, so young people have a place to eat after a day of hard work.
Also in Hangzhou, a community canteen has “Happiness mystery boxes” (快乐盲盒). They are just 6 yuan but have a meat dish and a vegetable dish. The workers of the canteen put a sticker (贴纸) on the top of each box so that people can’t see the food from the outside. This makes eating more fun and exciting! So the “mystery boxes” often sell out very quickly.
A community canteen in Beijing even has self-service (自助的) meals. The dishes there are only 2.48 yuan for every 100g. They are very cheap and many young people from the neighborhood always come for food. A young man says, “The canteen is beautiful and clean, and the dishes are very delicious.”
Do you want to eat in a community canteen too? If you do, just go and join the fun!
1.What does the underlined word “extends” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.关闭 B.加速 C.延长 D.缩短
2.What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A.Young people often eat after 6:00 p.m..
B.Dishes in community canteens are cheap.
C.Community canteens meet the needs of young people.
D.A community canteen sells a new and interesting dish.
3.What’s the purpose of the passage?
A.To show how the food sells in canteens.
B.To tell people where they can go after work.
C.To ask people to eat in community canteens.
D.To tell people why the canteens are popular with young people.
4.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
A. B.
C. D.
【答案】1.C 2.D 3.D 4.A

1.词义猜测题。根据第二段“Older people usually eat early, so the canteen closed at 6:00 p.m. But now it closes an hour and a half later, so young people have a place to eat after a day of hard work.”可知,杭州某社区食堂之前在下午6点闭餐,现在社区食堂7点半后关门,关门时间较之前延长,方便年轻人辛苦劳作后去用餐,故划线单词“extends”意为“延长”。故选C。
2.段落大意题。根据第三段“Also in Hangzhou, a community canteen has ‘Happiness mystery boxes’ (快乐盲盒). They are just 6 yuan but have a meat dish and a vegetable dish. The workers of the canteen put a sticker ( 贴纸)...the ‘mystery boxes’ often sell out very quickly.”可知,第三段围绕杭州某社区食堂的 “快乐盲盒” 展开,介绍其价格、搭配、包装设计及趣味性,最终提到盲盒很快售罄。故本段主要介绍了社区食堂销售一种新型且有趣的餐食。故选D。
3.主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了社区食堂越来越受欢迎。故选D。
4.篇章结构题。第一段总述社区食堂受年轻人欢迎及其背景;第二段至第四段分述不同地区食堂的具体做法 (杭州延长时间、盲盒;北京自助称重),解释受欢迎的原因; 第五段总结并邀请读者体验,呼应开头。故本文为总——分——总结构。故选A。

A few days later, Ben had a great idea. He knew Mr. Jenkins liked reading. So, he gave free lemonade to anyone who brought an old newspaper for Mr. Jenkins. Many neighbours heard about this and came to bring newspapers. When Mr. Jenkins saw the pile of newspapers, he was very surprised. Ben walked over to him shyly and said, “Mr. Jenkins, we thought you might want more newspapers to read.” Mr. Jenkins’ angry face changed and he even smiled a little.
After that, Mr. Jenkins often went to Ben’s lemonade stand. He would sit there, drink lemonade and talk with Ben and his friends. The old man now became an important part of the neighbourhood’s fun.

Two ladies lived next to each other. One day, one of the ladies said to the other, “I have lived here for five years, but I have never met you before. Could I have your name, please?” The other replied, “I am Li Hua. I moved here three years ago. What should I call you?”

Can you find your way if you are in a new city? No? Don’t worry. Here are some methods to help you find the way.
First, you can buy a map of the city. The map will be very helpful to you. You can find the places you are on the map. Then look for the place you’re going to on the map. You will know how to get there easily.
Another way is to ask a traffic policeman. At the traffic lights, there are usually some traffic policemen. They will be happy to help you find your way. So when you are having some difficulty finding your way, feel free to get some help from them.
You can also look at the sun. The sun may help you find your direction. For example, in the morning, the sun is in the east. At noon, the sun is in the south. In the late afternoon, the sun is in the west. It can help you know where you are and which direction you are going.

These days, community canteens (社区食堂) are very popular with young people. Many of them are very busy and don’t have time to cook, so these community canteens are great places for them to have meals.
Community canteens meet the needs of young people in many ways. For example, a community canteen in Hangzhou extends opening hours for young people. Older people usually eat early, so the canteen closed at 6:00 p.m. before. But now it closes an hour and a half later, so young people have a place to eat after a day of hard work.
Also in Hangzhou, a community canteen has “Happiness mystery boxes” (快乐盲盒). They are just 6 yuan but have a meat dish and a vegetable dish. The workers of the canteen put a sticker (贴纸) on the top of each box so that people can’t see the food from the outside. This makes eating more fun and exciting! So the “mystery boxes” often sell out very quickly.
A community canteen in Beijing even has self-service (自助的) meals. The dishes there are only 2.48 yuan for every 100g. They are very cheap and many young people from the neighborhood always come for food. A young man says, “The canteen is beautiful and clean, and the dishes are very delicious.”
Do you want to eat in a community canteen too? If you do, just go and join the fun!
