参考范文:
Paragraph 1:
We found the man a couple of aisles over,
and I approached him."Excuse me,sir?This is
Norah,and she'd like to know if you'd take a
picture with her for her birthday."His expression
changed from confused to stunned to delighted."A
picture?With me?”he asked.“Yes,for my
birthday!”Norah pleased..And he agreed..I
pulled out my smartphone,and they posed
together.She placed her soft hand on top of his
hand.He wordlessly stared at her with
twinkling eyes as she kept his hand in hers and
studied his skinny arms and weather-beaten
hands.I asked his name and he told us to call
him Dan.
Paragraph 2:
After a few minutes,I thanked Mr.Dan
for spending a bit of time with us.Tears in his
eyes,he said,"No,thank you.This is the best
day I've had for a long time."He turned to my
daughter."You've made me so happy,Miss
Norah."They hugged tightly and they were
chatting like long-lost friends.There was magic
happening in the grocery store that day and I'd be
lying to you if I said I wasn't weepy at that moment.
I was sure his heart was touched by my little girl,
and that he would never forget it.

第二部分阅读理解
第一节(共4小题,每小题2.5分,共10分)
Salad plants have already been grown in old shelters and tunnels ()Urban
farming is a regular topic of interest at places like the World Economic Forum (WEF)in
Davos,where leaders consider whether the world's food system,blamed for causing both
obesity and malnutrition,can be fixed.There are already plenty of urban farming projects
around the world,particularly in the US,Japan and the Netherlands,from urban fish and
plant farms to vertical(垂直的)farming.
26
"It's becoming an expanding industry,"said Richard Ballard,one of the founders of
the farm Growing Underground."There're several other businesses starting up in London
in containers,and there are other vertical farms around the country now.
Growing Underground is not a standard farm.The rows of crops could be in almost
any tunnel,but these plants are 100 feet below Clapham High Street and show that urban
agriculture is,in some cases at least,not a fad.The underground farm has occupied (
a part of the Second World War air-raid shelters for nearly five years,and Ballard is
planning to expand into the rest of the space later this year.
Growing Underground supplies herb and salad mixes to grocery shops,
supermarkets and restaurants.Being in London creates an advantage,Ballard says,as
they can harvest and deliver in an hour.
He adds other advantages.Being underground means temperatures never go below
15C-surface greenhouses need to be heated.They can have better harvests:60 crops a
year,compared with about seven in a traditional farm.Electricity to power the lights is a
major cost,but the company believes renewable(可再生的)energy will become cheaper.
Similar British companies include the Jones Food Company in Lincolnshire,while in
the US Acrufarms has several projects in New Jersey,and Edenworks in Brooklyn.
1.What do we know about urban farming?
A.It leads to a healthier lifestyle.
B.It is rarely discussed at the WEF.
C.Different farming methods are used.
D.Local governments pay efforts to develop it.
2.Which of the following best explains "a fad"underlined in Paragraph 3?
A.A dream that's easy to realize.
B.A field controlled for a long time.
C.An approach to a serious problem.
D.A fashion that's popular for a short time.
3.What can we learn about the underground farm?
A.It is more productive than a traditional farm.
B.It provides food directly to the customers.
C.Its major products are herbs and salads.
D.It uses less energy than a greenhouse.
27
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Current food system causes health problems
B.Growing Underground attracts more people
C.Traditional farming is out of date
D.Urban farming feeds cities of the future
第二节阅读七选五(共5小题,每小题2分,共10分)
Between school,homework,sports,your after-school job,and hanging out with
friends,it may feel like there's no time for healthy eating.And when you have time,you may
simply eat snacks like potato chips.1 In fact,if you have a busy schedule,it's even more
important to eat healthy foods that give you the energy you need to keep going.
2 For example,you may feel hungry in a long afternoon of classes or during your
swim meet.Knowing how much food your body needs to satisfy this hunger is important.A
few walnuts (are great brain food before sitting down to do your math
homework.3
Healthy snacking is important to you.During teenage years,the body needs more
nutrients (to grow.Snacks are a great way to satisfy your hunger and get all
nutrients your body needs.4 Do not eat foods with lots of added sugars like candy bars
or soda.That's because eating these foods may help you stop feeling hungry for a moment,
but they are bad for your health in the long run.
Choosing healthy snacks means shopping smart.5 We may find "all natural"on
the side of a package but it doesn't necessarily mean it's nutritious.For example,"all
natural"juice drinks can be filled with sugar,which means they'll make you fat easily and
give you little nutrition.
A.It's natural to feel hungry at certain times.
B.Healthy snacking doesn't have to be boring.
C.But you need to pay attention to what you eat.
D.If you're really feeling hungry,don't ignore it.
E.But it is possible to treat yourself to a healthy snack.
F.But a whole bag only makes you put on weight easily!
G.Be careful of the health information on food packages.
