As a young black kid living in a poor community, if someone told me that I would grow up to become an author, I would have laughed. In Valdosta, Georgia, where I grew up, my community encouraged two ways to a better life for little boys like me. Being an athlete and being an entertainer were the two ways. Both do not require much of a traditional education for success. I was no different than the other kids living in my neighborhood, so I did what felt natural: Playing football and neglecting (忽视) school.
However, deep down inside, I knew I was as smart as everyone else. I also knew that I really liked stories and the pictures that went with them in some books. Fortunately, through athletic scholarships and people who believed in me, I was able to go to college. That’s when my reading struggles began to show up. Trips to the store were discouraging because there was so much reading involved in the simple act of buying food. I would misread labels and take the wrong goods.
I realized that I needed to make an important decision. I wanted to be a better version (版本) of myself, which meant becoming a stronger reader. I began by practicing reading as much as I practiced football. At first, some words were too big, some sentences too long and some books too thick, but I kept at it. I always had a book on me and read every free moment I could find. Through effort and hard work, my reading, step by step became limitless. I read fiction (小说) and nonfiction and finally began writing.
Today I’m a published author. My new book, My Very Favorite Book in the Whole Wide World, comes from my personal experience as a struggling reader who found a way to start loving books. Both my story and the main character Henley’s story are examples of the magical power books have whether you’re the reader or writer. And I want my little readers to know that.
24. What can we learn about the author when he was young
A. He lived in a rich community.
B. He didn’t show much interest in books.
C. He was quite different from other boys around him.
D. He wasn’t encouraged to receive a good education.

D. He could hardly afford the costs.
26. What decision did the author make

B. To have a stronger body.
C. To give up practicing football.
D. To spend much more time on reading.
27. Why did the author most probably write My Very Favorite Book in the Whole Wide World

D. To encourage children to read more.
C
Each culture has a diet of its own. The diet of the people in that land is influenced by the availability of food in that area. For example, meat is one of the main sources of energy for the body in colder climates. Therefore, it can be seen that meat in the diet of people in cold countries is more plentiful.
In Kerala, India, people eat more fish. Rice is Kerala’s main food. In all three meals, rice dishes can be seen.
While preparing powdered porridge, baked pappadam and healthy coconut milk, a grandmother was listening to her grandchildren call her. Then the door opened and there came her grandchildren. Something unfamiliar was found in the bowl in their hands. The grandmother gave it a sniff (嗅) and put it back. Through the look on her face, you could tell that she did not like the smell. Then one of the grandchildren said, “How easy it is to make noodles! Only five minutes is enough.” This is the experience of an old grandmother who came to stay with her kids and grandchildren. Two days later, the grandmother, who was ready to spend at least two months with her children, returned to her village.
Traditional dishes of Kerala, such as powdered porridge, pappadam, bread, kappa, fish curry, sambar and spices, are disappearing. Instead, even in the slums ( 贫民窟) of Kerala, many foreign dishes such as fried rice, chilli chicken and ginger chicken are becoming available. After working in the sun all day in the fields, the last generation could be seen drinking a cup of sambhara, a traditional Indian tea. But today, people prefer drinking modern red and yellow flavoured water.
When our taste in food changes, it can affect more than just our diet. Those who don’t know how to make overseas dishes don’t even get kitchen work today. We try to mimic (模仿) foreigners and accept the dishes they find unhealthy, even though foreigners are culturally inclined towards (倾向于) our diet. Though visitors come to Kerala to buy our bread, fish curry, pudding and fruit, people in Kerala go to restaurants to buy foreign rice and soups and empty their pockets.
28. Why did the old grandmother return to her village ahead of time
A. She got terribly angry with her kids.
B. She had something important to deal with.
C. She didn’t enjoy the food at her kids’ home.
D. She didn’t get along well with her grandchildren.
29. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The loss of Kerala’s traditional dishes.
B. Measures to save Kerala’s traditional dishes.
C. Benefits of keeping Kerala’s traditional dishes.
D. The improvement of people’s living conditions in Kerala.
30. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Kerala has shaken off the “poor” label.
B. Foreign food is popular in Kerala.
C. Kerala offers cooks few job opportunities.
D. Fewer and fewer people in Kerala cook for themselves.
31. How might the author feel when writing the text
A. Worried. B. Grateful. C. Doubtful. D. Satisfied.
D
People tend to connect to their cultural or ethnic group through similar food patterns. Immigrants often use food as a means of maintaining their cultural identity. People from different cultural backgrounds eat different foods. The ingredients, methods of preparation, preservation techniques (技巧), and types of food eaten at different mealtimes vary among cultures. The areas in which families live and where their ancestors originated influence food likes and dislikes. These food preferences result in patterns of food choices within a cultural or regional group.
Nations or countries are frequently associated with certain foods. For example, many people associate Italy with pizza and pasta (意大利面食). Yet Italians eat many other foods, and types of pasta dishes vary throughout Italy. Methods of preparation and types of food in a nation vary by region. Some families in the United States prefer to eat “meat and potatoes,” but “meat and potatoes” are not eaten on a regular basis, nor even preferred, by many in the United States and would not be labeled a national cuisine.
Regional food habits do exist, but they also change over time. As people immigrate, food practices and preferences are imported and exported. Families move to other locations, bringing their food preferences with them. They may use their old recipes with new ingredients, or experiment with new recipes. In addition, food itself is imported from other countries. Approximately (大约) 80 percent of Samoa’s food requirements are imported from the United States, New Zealand, or Australia. Because people and food are mobile, attempts to characterize a country or people by what they eat are often inaccurate.
Even the role of conversation during mealtime varies from place to place. Many families believe that mealtime is a good time to catch up on the lives of family and friends. Among other families, conversation during a meal is acceptable, but the topics of conversation are limited. In some Southeast Asian countries, it is considered polite to limit conversation during a meal.
Food traditions vary widely throughout the world. However, in most parts of the world, food is associated with hospitality (好客) and expression of friendship. Therefore, sensitivity to food rules and customs is important in building and strengthening cross-cultural relationships.
32. What can be learned about Italians’ eating habits
A. They differ from region to region.
B. They center on meat and potatoes.
C. They mainly consist of pizza and pasta.
D. They are similar to American eating habits.
33. What is the author trying to reveal with the example of Samoa
A. People are forming new food preferences.
B. People can’t be simply defined by their food.
C. People don’t have the same food requirements.
D. People are developing a liking for international food.
34. What does the underlined part “catch up on” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Learn about. B. Make up for.
C. Continue with. D. Make a difference to.
35. What advice is given in the last paragraph
A. Expression of friendship should be appropriate.
B. Awareness of food cultures should be developed.
C. Cross-cultural relationships should be built continually.
D. Food traditions should be passed on from generation to generation.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Eating healthily can help you lose weight and have more energy. It can also improve your mood (心情) and reduce your risk of disease. Yet despite these benefits, maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle can be challenging. Here are ways to stick to a healthy diet.
Practice mindful eating.
36 Take time to enjoy your food and appreciate its ability to nourish (滋养) you. Adopting a mindful eating approach can help you achieve a better relationship with foods and may reduce binge eating (饮食无度).
Start the day with a high-protein breakfast.
Eating a high-protein breakfast helps you stay full. 37 If your first meal is well balanced and contains enough protein, you’re more likely to maintain stable blood sugar levels and not overeat for the rest of the day.

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。
This time, Mat and I set our climbing destination as Mount Baker in Washington. According to the weather forecast (预报), it was to be clear skies that day. We left the foot of the mountain at 6 p.m., aiming to reach the top at sunrise. As we traveled for four hours, the weather turned to a mix of rolling ice and rain. Shouting over the wind, we discussed turning around. But I thought back to the forecast I had checked just before leaving and believed the weather would clear up at any minute.
It didn’t. We pushed our own way through the deepening snow. At some points, the snow was up to our upper legs. We were further behind schedule with each step.
“I’ve made it to the top,” I shouted loudly to Mat over my radio. He was only 7 meters away on the other end of the rope but unable to see or hear me through the heavy snow. He joined me at the top for 20 seconds — the temperature was well below zero — before we began the 4,000-foot journey downhill.
We then reached the edge of the mountain after 5 hours (it takes about an hour and a half in good weather), unroped, and removed some of our climbing equipment, happy to be on the mountain without much difficulty ahead. And in that moment of relief, I slipped (滑倒).
Standing on a seemingly good block of snow, I started to slide. I did a textbook self-stop with my ice ax (冰镐), but the snow had started to melt (融化), and I couldn’t get any hold on anything. I slid for about 15 meters, all the while thinking I’d soon come to a stop. A few seconds later I hit a rock and got thrown into the air. A huge crack on the ground came into view below me. Then, in an instant, I felt like I was being pushed with great force onto its rock bottom 9 meters down.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
At least I stopped, I thought. _________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After 30 minutes Mat arrived on a nearby rock and found me. ______________

第一节
One possible version:
Dear Kevin,
I’d like to invite you to the knowledge lecture to be organised by our school culture club next Friday afternoon.
During the lecture, we’ll introduce the influence of Chinese food culture on the world culture. Traditional Chinese food and table manners will also be introduced. I know you’re interested in Chinese food culture, so this will be a good opportunity for you to have a further understanding of it. Moreover, I’d like you to introduce food culture in New Zealand from which I believe we can learn much about New Zealand culture.
Looking forward to your coming and your lecture.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
One possible version:
At least I stopped, I thought. My left arm and shoulder weren’t working, and I knew I probably had a head injury. I heard Mat’s voice on the radio asking if I was alive. I answered, giving him my location. Then I tried to stand, and soon pain passed through my body. It felt like my brain was shutting down. I tried not to worry, but it took all my strength to keep talking to Mat.
After 30 minutes Mat arrived on a nearby rock and found me. Mat shouted at me and reminded me to press the SOS button on my rescue device. I let Mat’s voice guide me to my shoulder bag to hit the button. He climbed down and finally used the rope to pull me out of the crack. Hours later we met two search and rescue climbers who had answered my call for help. I’ll never forget the lesson that I learned that day: The top of the mountain is only halfway home.

65. written。考查动词-ed形式作定语。设空处在句中作后置定语，修饰lyrical poem，又因为write与lyrical poem之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，故填written。
