If all the food that’s thrown away in three American cities could be saved, it would provide 68 million meals for people who don’t have enough to eat, according to a recent study.
The researchers found that, in the cities they surveyed (调查) , more than a kilogram of edible food per person is wasted each week.Edible food is food you can eat.It doesn’t include things like apple cores(果核), egg shells, or bones from meat.Fruits and vegetables were the most common edible foods found in the dustbin, followed by food leftovers from meals.Eggs, bread and milk were also commonly thrown out.
The people taking part in the survey gave several reasons for throwing edible food away.Most said the food went off.Some said they weren’t interested in eating leftovers.A few said the food had passed the “Best Before” date printed on the label.When food is wasted—by families, restaurants or grocery—we are also wasting all of the resources that go into producing that food.That means we are wasting water, land, energy and labor, as well as the fuel needed to transport food.
A lot of food is wasted before it even reaches the grocery.Some food is damaged while it is being transported from the farm to the stores.Fruits and vegetables that don’t look attractive enough don’t even get put onto the shelves because most people won’t buy them.Grocery, restaurants and hospitals also waste a large amount of food.The researchers suggest that grocery stores should donate any food that is still okay to eat to homeless shelters instead of throwing it away.Prepared meals from hospitals or restaurants could also be donated to shelters.
24.What do we know about edible food from the second paragraph
A.Fruits are the most common.
B.Some has been wasted.

Walt Disney once said, “It was all started by a mouse”, but in fact, Disneyland started with a problem. Sitting on a bench in Griffith Park and watching his daughters on the carousel (旋转木马), he wondered, “Why isn’t there any sort of amusement experience that the entire family can enjoy together ”
His idea for displaying Disney characters in a fantasy setting was far away from amusement parks and carnivals (狂欢节) that offered rides, games and inexpensive food. Instead Disneyland was thought of as an extension (扩展) of the Disney brand, and would be the first “theme park” built in the United States.
When Disney decided that he would be building a place that told a story, he knew that he would need people and technology to help create the magic and tell the stories. In 1952, Disney collected together a staff of designers, planners and artists and formed WED business, standing for Walter Elias Disney.The WED group began a long time of creative brainstorming.Its members designed and reworked Walt’s broad ideas.They visited other amusement attractions around the country to gather data and impressions and improved development plans, and created a rough construction (建设) timetable.
Construction for Disneyland began on July 21, 1954,just 12 months before the park was scheduled to open.Construction companies worked busily to meet the tight schedule and completed the project on time.Disneyland was formally opened a year later, on July 17, 1955, to excited visitors.Unlike other amusement parks of the day, Disneyland was developed and constructed to be instantly recognizable as an extension of the Disney brand and the Disney idea.The rides used a wide range (范围) of Disney themes, costumed Disney characters wandering around the park, and Sleeping Beauty Castle, the attraction at the heart of the park, was instantly recognized by millions of people since it was seen every Sunday night of ABC television.
Out of Walt Disney’s unpleasant experience as a father taking his daughters to an amusement park has come the multi-billion dollar industry of modern theme parks. Disney’s theme parks dominate (占优势) tourism on both coasts, as well as in Paris and in Tokyo.Disneyland became, in a way, the top of Walt Disney’s career.
27.What led Walt Disney to build Disneyland according to the writer
A.His love for the Mickey Mouse.
B.His love for his lovely daughters.
C.His unpleasant childhood.
D.His unpleasant experience in a park.
28.The WED group was formed in order to .
A.improve Disneyland
B.design a creative new park
C.make a construction timetable
D.organize activities in amusement parks
29.We can learn from the fourth paragraph that Disneyland was .
A.a big success
B.a poorly-built project
C.the largest amusement park
D.a park with lots of castles
30.Which of the following can be concluded from the passage
A.Disneyland is the most important achievement of Walt Disney.
B.Disneyland was designed by Walt Disney himself.
C.Disneyland was built in a hurry and with a problem.
D.Disneyland is full of storytellers and Disney characters.

Before there was the written word, there was the language of dance. Dance expresses love and hate, joy and sorrow,life and death, and everything else in between.

“I adore dancing,” says Lester Bridges, the owner of a dance studio in Iowa.“I can’t imagine doing anything else with my life.”Bridges runs dance classes for all ages. “Teaching dance is wonderful. 32 It’s great to watch them. For many of them, it’s a way of meeting people and having a social life.”
33 “I can tell you about one young couple,”says Bridges.“They’re learning to do traditional dances. They arrive at the class in low spirits and they leave with a smile. 34 ”
So, do we dance in order to make ourselves feel better, calmer, healthier Andrea Hillier says, “Dance, like the pattern of a beating heart, is life.Even after all these years, I want to get better and better. 35 I find it hard to stop! Dancing reminds me I’m alive.”
A.So why do we dance
B.Dance in the U.S.is everywhere.
C.If you like dancing outdoors, come to America.
D.My older students say it makes them feel young.
E.I keep practicing even when I’m extremely tired.
F.Dancing seems to change their feeling completely.
G.They stayed up all night long singing and dancing.

A funny thing happened to Arthur when he was on the way to work one day.As he walked along Park Avenue near the First National Bank,he heard the sound of someone trying to start a car.He tried again and again but couldn’t get the car moving.Arthur turned and looked inside at the face of a young man who looked worried.Arthur stopped and asked,“It looks like you’ve got a problem.”
“I’m afraid so.I’m in a big hurry and I can’t start my car.”
“Is there something I can do to help ”Arthur asked.The young man looked at the two suitcases in the back seat and then said,“Thanks.If you’re sure it wouldn’t be too much trouble,you could help me get these suitcases into a taxi.”
“No trouble at all.I’d be glad to help.”
The young man got out and took one of the suitcases from the back seat.After placing it on the ground,he turned to get the other one.Just as Arthur picked up the first suitcase and started walking,he heard the loud noise of an alarm.
It was from the bank.There had been a robbery (抢劫)!
Park Avenue had been quiet a moment before.Now the air was filled with the sound of the alarm and the shouts of people running from all directions.Cars stopped and the passengers joined the crowd in front of the bank.People asked each other,“What happened ”But everyone had a different answer.Arthur,still carrying the suitcase, turned to look at the bank and walked right into the young woman in front of him.
She looked at the suitcase and then at him.Arthur was surprised.“Why is she looking at me like that ”He thought.“The suitcase!She thinks I’m the bank thief!”

Construction for Disneyland began on July 21, 1954,just 12 months before the park was scheduled to open.Construction companies worked busily to meet the tight schedule and completed the project on time.Disneyland was formally opened a year later, on July 17, 1955, to excited visitors.Unlike other amusement parks of the day, Disneyland was developed and constructed to be instantly recognizable as an extension of the Disney brand and the Disney idea.The rides used a wide range (范围) of Disney themes, costumed Disney characters wandering around the park, and Sleeping Beauty Castle, the attraction at the heart of the park, was instantly recognized by millions of people since it was seen every Sunday night of ABC television.
Out of Walt Disney’s unpleasant experience as a father taking his daughters to an amusement park has come the multi-billion dollar industry of modern theme parks. Disney’s theme parks dominate (占优势) tourism on both coasts, as well as in Paris and in Tokyo.Disneyland became, in a way, the top of Walt Disney’s career.

Before there was the written word, there was the language of dance. Dance expresses love and hate, joy and sorrow,life and death, and everything else in between.
31 We dance from Florida to Alaska, from north to south and sea to sea.We dance at weddings, birthdays, office parties and just to fill the time.
“I adore dancing,” says Lester Bridges, the owner of a dance studio in Iowa.“I can’t imagine doing anything else with my life.”Bridges runs dance classes for all ages. “Teaching dance is wonderful. 32 It’s great to watch them. For many of them, it’s a way of meeting people and having a social life.”
33 “I can tell you about one young couple,”says Bridges.“They’re learning to do traditional dances. They arrive at the class in low spirits and they leave with a smile. 34 ”
So, do we dance in order to make ourselves feel better, calmer, healthier Andrea Hillier says, “Dance, like the pattern of a beating heart, is life.Even after all these years, I want to get better and better. 35 I find it hard to stop! Dancing reminds me I’m alive.”

A funny thing happened to Arthur when he was on the way to work one day.As he walked along Park Avenue near the First National Bank,he heard the sound of someone trying to start a car.He tried again and again but couldn’t get the car moving.Arthur turned and looked inside at the face of a young man who looked worried.Arthur stopped and asked,“It looks like you’ve got a problem.”
“I’m afraid so.I’m in a big hurry and I can’t start my car.”
“Is there something I can do to help ”Arthur asked.The young man looked at the two suitcases in the back seat and then said,“Thanks.If you’re sure it wouldn’t be too much trouble,you could help me get these suitcases into a taxi.”
“No trouble at all.I’d be glad to help.”
The young man got out and took one of the suitcases from the back seat.After placing it on the ground,he turned to get the other one.Just as Arthur picked up the first suitcase and started walking,he heard the loud noise of an alarm.
It was from the bank.There had been a robbery (抢劫)!
Park Avenue had been quiet a moment before.Now the air was filled with the sound of the alarm and the shouts of people running from all directions.Cars stopped and the passengers joined the crowd in front of the bank.People asked each other,“What happened ”But everyone had a different answer.Arthur,still carrying the suitcase, turned to look at the bank and walked right into the young woman in front of him.
She looked at the suitcase and then at him.Arthur was surprised.“Why is she looking at me like that ”He thought.“The suitcase!She thinks I’m the bank thief!”
Arthur looked around at the crowd of people.He became frightened,and without another thought,he started to run.

Today I’d like to talk about some of the ideas we’ve studied about living in foreign countries.
People often have trouble getting used to a new culture.They’re usually very happy when they first arrive in a foreign country.However,if they stay a long time,they may start to feel the different stages of culture shock.They can get lonely or sad,because they can’t deal with the local people.
How quickly you get used to culture difference may depend on the way you learn.People need to interact with others to learn well.That’s a problem if they can’t speak the language.On the other hand,some can study the situation and make good guesses about the culture.When people finally begin to understand some of the language and make some new friends,they’ll gradually enjoy themselves more and feel satisfied.

29 A 【解析】细节理解题。由第四段中的“Disneyland was formally opened a year later,on July 17,1955,to excited visitors.Unlike other amusement parks of the day,Disneyland was developed and constructed to be instantly recognizable as an extension of the Disney brand and the Disney idea.”可知,迪斯尼乐园非常成功,故选A项。

32 D 【解析】本句起到承上启下的作用。根据设空前一句“Teaching dance is wonderful.”可知,下文应与教别人跳舞有关,又根据设空后一句“It’s great to watch them.”中的“them”可知,待填句中应包含一个表示人的复数名词,故选D。
33 A 【解析】本段主要讲了跳舞之后人们心情会变好,由此可知,待填处提出问题,与下文构成因果关系。故选A。
34 F 【解析】此处表示跳过舞后人们心情的积极变化,再根据设空前的“one young couple”可知,待填处的代词应为复数,故选F。
35 E 【解析】根据设空前的“I want to get better and better”及设空后的“I find it hard to stop!”可知,待填处应表明Andrea Hillier对舞蹈的热爱,故选E。
第三部分 语言运用
第一节
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了迪斯尼乐园的最佳游览时间、购票方式及景点参观顺序等。
36 B 【解析】此处是关于迪斯尼乐园的位置介绍。locate位于;limit限制;circle圈出;expand扩大。
37 C 【解析】作为一个旅游胜地,必是“吸引”游客,draw有“吸引”的意思。please使人满意;organize组织;benefit使人受益。
38 D 【解析】根据下文提到避开周末或者学校放假时间来游玩可知,当地人利用周末来玩的可能性最大,选D。
39 A 【解析】周末和假期游客多,等候的时间肯定要长,而这里特别指出了要避开这两个时间,为的是等候的时间短一些,故排除C项,选A。
40 D 【解析】根据“The period”可知,此处考虑的是一个时间段,所以首先排除A项;圣诞节前后应该是一年中的一个时间段,不可能是一周或一天,所以也排除B、C两项。
41 C 【解析】该部分提示游客来玩时尽量来得早点儿,避免在受欢迎的景点遇到游客拥挤的现象。leave离开;plan计划;book预订,都不符合句意。
42 D 【解析】为了避开拥挤的时间段,以便有足够的时间游玩,应该提前约一个小时到达,故选before。
43 B 【解析】提前约一个小时到达迪斯尼乐园,是为了避免在受欢迎的景点遇到游客拥挤的现象。before crowds build可指“在游客扎堆现象形成前”。avoid回避;break破裂;combine结合,使联合。
44 A 【解析】该段谈购票的问题。该句主语为迪斯尼乐园,为售票方,所以选A。show出示,展览;send发送,派遣;collect收集。
45 D 【解析】这里指迪斯尼乐园也在网上售票,为了防止造假,应该是不允许游客在自己家里“print(打印)”。reserve和keep都有“储备,保存”的意思,copy复制,均不符合逻辑。
46 A 【解析】订好的票需要邮寄给你,这需要一定的时日,所以要尽可能提前(in advance)订购。in case万一;in order有条理;in turn轮流。
47 D 【解析】此处需要一个情态动词,意思吻合最关键,这里表示除了在网上购票外,还“可以”通过其他途径购票,所以选may最合适。ought to应该;must必须;will将要。
48 B 【解析】根据下文“经过两年维修和重建”来看,此处为“重新营业”的意思。
49 D 【解析】possibility表示“可能性”;change表示“变化”;development表示“进展,发展”。三个单词在和show搭配时均不能体现维修的目的。此处谈Space Mountain两年维修的目的是提升show effects(展出的效果),即它的可参观性。
50 C 【解析】此处建议带小孩的游客尽量在早晨去Fantasyland,后面是提出该建议的理由,因为是比较明显的理由,所以用as。because of后不能接句子;when引导时间状语从句;since是“既然”的意思。
51 C 【解析】上文提到有几个吸引游客的景点,此处专门提示其中最好的两个地方,所以用especially。unluckily不幸地;unexpectedly出乎意料地;normally正常地。
52 B 【解析】此处指这个景点客容量较小,很容易出现游客扎堆现象,这样就很可能会等很长时间,所以用wait(名词,表示“等待的时间”),且与上文吻合。
53 A 【解析】此处需要承上启下的转折,if not意为“如果不”,指“如果不参观前面的景点,那么就……”。其他选项起不到此作用。in a word总而言之;as a result结果;what’s more而且。
54 D 【解析】where引导地点状语从句;how一般表方式。这里是时间状语从句,在刚开门时,直奔Adventureland和New Orleans Square。
55 D 【解析】最后一部分讲了参观各景点的顺序,最后一句为下一处景点,所以用“then(然后)”最合适。
第二节
本文介绍1995年或1995年以后出生的年轻人有另外一个英文名字——Generation Z。电脑的飞速发展使这一代人摆脱了传统的束缚。他们绝不会让他们的创造力受限于父母或传统规则。
56 born 【解析】考查过去分词做后置定语。此处people和bear之间是被动关系,用过去分词做后置定语,故答案为born。
57 universal 【解析】考查形容词。此处become是连系动词,用形容词做表语,故填universal。
58 is believed 【解析】考查固定句式。It is believed that…据认为……根据句意可知答案为is believed。
59 which 【解析】考查定语从句。修饰前面整个句子,后面用which引导非限制性定语从句。故填which。
60 their 【解析】考查固定搭配。try one’s best尽某人最大的努力。
61 with 【解析】考查固定词组。be familiar with对……熟悉,精通……故填with。
62 than 【解析】考查比较级。根据shorter可知此处填than,表示比较。
63 politics 【解析】考查名词。句意:……他们在政治上更活跃。此处是名词做介词的宾语,故填politics。
64 Growing 【解析】考查动名词。此处是动名词做主语,故用Growing。
65 willing 【解析】考查形容词。be willing to do sth.愿意做某事。

Great changes have taken place in our hometown in the past few years.Many roads have been built connecting our village with other villages and cities.People’s living standards have been greatly improved and they live a better life than before,and they will give you a warm welcome when you come.

One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
As he was running,Arthur heard the young man shouting behind,“Stop,stop!”Arthur immediately realized that the young man was the bank robber.So Arthur didn’t stop,but continued to run until he saw and caught a taxi in front of him.He quickly put the suitcase in the car and said to the driver,“Please hurry to the Police Station.I have a case to report to the police.The man shouting behind is the bank thief!”The taxi raced away to the Police Station like an arrow.
Paragraph 2:
The taxi stopped in front of the Police Station and Arthur told the police what had happened.Obviously,the police had already learned about the robbery.They opened the suitcase and there was a large sum of money inside,as Arthur had expected.Then the police asked Arthur to describe the young man and the other suitcase.Later,with the information,the police caught the robber.The police and the bank both thanked Arthur a lot.
