课时分层作业(五)
Ⅰ．【语篇解读】 本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了英国的四个美食节。
1．D [细节理解题。根据这两个部分中的“This three day”可知，它们的持续时间一样。]
2．D [细节理解题。根据The Orange Sauce Festival部分中的“There are thousands of participants ...bringing their local snacks to share here.”可知，该美食节有来自30多个国家的参与者带来他们当地的小吃，由此可知，对外国食物感兴趣的人应该最喜欢The Orange Sauce Festival。]
3．C [细节理解题。根据The Ginger and Spice Festival部分中的“Unlike other food festivals ...returned from India with ginger.”可知，这个美食节是为了庆祝Robert Clive从印度带姜返回，由此可知，The Ginger and Spice Festival的特殊之处是它与一位历史人物有关。]
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。本文主要阐述了Stephen Knowles教授及其团队的研究发现，该研究主要关注的是截止期限对拖延的影响。
4．A [推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Professor Stephen Knowles...for their research.”可知，Stephen Knowles教授为他们的研究，测试了截止期限长短对任务完成的影响，由此可推知，Knowles教授的研究是为了研究截止期限在拖延中所起的作用，故选A项。]
5．D [细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The study found responses...permission to procrastinate.”可知，截止期限越长，拖延越严重。故选D项。]
6．C [推理判断题。根据第四段中的“We interpret this as evidence...removes the urgency to act”可知，研究发现，与短的截止日期或根本没有截止日期截然相反，指定更长的截止日期会消除采取行动的紧迫性。由此可推断，当被给到长的截止日期时，人们是由于缺乏紧迫感才拖延的，故选C项。]
7．D [标题归纳题。通读全文内容，特别是第一段中的“New research has found...make it short.”可知，文章主要介绍了Stephen Knowles教授及其团队的研究发现，该研究主要关注的是截止期限对拖延的影响，故D项最适合作本文标题。]
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项可以减少食物浪费的新发明——纸质电气气体传感器(PEGS)。该传感器制作环保，可连接到移动设备上，告知人们食物的新鲜度，以此代替食物的日期标签，从而减少食物浪费。同时还介绍了这种传感器的工作方式以及作者对此传感器未来应用领域的愿景。
8．D [细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Known as ‘paper based electrical gas sensors(PEGS)’．..safe to eat.”可知，PEGS可检测出食物散发出的有毒气体比如氨气，然后把信息传到智能手机上，告知人们食物是否新鲜和安全。故PEGS的功能是帮助人们检测食物的新鲜度。故选D。]
9．B [细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The sensors...which identify and understand the data about spoilage gases.”可知，移动设备识别了解有关食物变质散发出的气体的数据。故当PEGS运行时，智能手机的作用是读取PEGS收集的数据。故选B。]
10．A [推理判断题。根据第六段“Lead author...even when an item is within its use by date.”可知，保质期并不总是反映它的实际新鲜度。故可推知，Firat Guder博士认为保质期不是完全可靠的。故选A。]
11．B [主旨大意题。根据文章内容尤其是第一段“In order to...and fish packaging.”可知，文章主要介绍了一项可以减少食物浪费的新发明，并且围绕传感器介绍了它的工作方式以及作者对此传感器未来应用领域的愿景。所以作者在文中主要介绍了一项减少食物浪费的包装新发明。故选B。]

They say procrastination (拖延) is the thief of time actually deadlines are.New research has found that if you want someone to help you out with something，it is best not to set a deadline at all.But if you do set a deadline，make it short.
Professor Stephen Knowles tested the effect of deadline length on task completion for their research.Participants were invited to complete an online survey concerning a charity donation.They were given either one week，one month，or no deadline to respond.Professor Knowles says although the topic of the survey was about charity，the results are true of any situation where someone asks another person for help.
The study found responses to the survey were lowest for the one month deadline and highest when no deadline was specified (明确规定).No deadline and the one week deadline led to many early responses，while a long deadline appeared to give people permission to procrastinate.Professor Knowles wasn't surprised to find that specifying a shorter deadline increased the chances of receiving a response compared to a longer deadline.However，he did find it interesting that they received the most responses when no deadline was specified.
“We interpret this as evidence that specifying a longer deadline，as opposed to a short deadline or no deadline at all，removes the urgency to act，”he says.“People therefore put off undertaking the task，and since they are inattentive or forget，postponing it results in lower response rates.”
He says of the research that it is possible that not specifying a deadline might still have led participants to assume that there is an unspoken deadline.Professor Knowles hopes his research can help reduce the amount of procrastinating people do.“Many people procrastinate.They have the best intentions of helping someone out，but just do not get around to doing it.”
4．Why did Professor Knowles do the research
A．To study the role a deadline plays in procrastination.
B．To find out whether people are interested in charity.
C．To attract public attention to the effects of procrastination.
D．To test the effects of procrastination on task completion.
5．What most likely lead to procrastination
A．No deadlines. B．Short deadlines.
C．Specific deadlines. D．Long deadlines.
6．Why do people procrastinate when given a long deadline
A．They oppose the deadline.
B．They are unwilling to act.
C．They lack a sense of urgency.
D．They are too busy to remember.
7．Which of the following is the best title for the text
A．Procrastination—the Thief of Time
B．Procrastination—an Urgent Problem to Solve
C．Deadline—a Result of Procrastination
D．Deadline—the Key to Reducing Procrastination
C 篇(限时7分钟)
(2022·湖南省高三六校联考)
In order to help discover spoilage(变质)and reduce food waste for supermarkets and consumers，researchers have developed new low cost，smartphone linked，eco friendly spoilage sensors for meat and fish packaging.
One in three UK consumers throw away food just because it reaches the use by date(保存期)，but 60% of the ￡12.5 billion worth of food we throw away each year is safe to eat.
The researchers，whose findings were published in ACS Sensors，say the sensors could also eventually replace the use by date—a widely used indicator of being fresh and eatable.
The sensors cost two US cents each to make.Known as “paper based electrical gas sensors (PEGS)”，they detect spoilage gases like ammonia (a poisonous gas with a strong unpleasant smell) in meat and fish products.The information provided by the electronic nose is received by a smartphone，and then you can know whether the food is fresh and safe to eat.
Imperial College London researchers who developed PEGS made the sensors by printing carbon electrodes(电极) onto a special type of paper.The materials are eco friendly and harmless，so they don't damage the environment and are safe to use in food packaging.The sensors，combined with a tiny electronic system，then inform nearby mobile devices，which identify and understand the data about spoilage gases.
Lead author Dr.Firat Guder from the Department of Bioengineering，said，“Although they're designed to keep us safe，use by dates can lead to eatable food being thrown away.They don't always reflect its actual freshness.In fact，people often get sick from food borne diseases due to poor storage，even when an item is within its use by date.”
“These sensors are cheap enough so we hope to see supermarkets using them within three years.Our goal is to use PEGS in food packaging to reduce unnecessary food waste.”
The authors hope that PEGS could have applications beyond food processing，like sensing chemicals in agriculture and air quality，and detecting disease markers in breath like those involved in kidney disease.
8．What is the function of PEGS according to the text
A．To improve the taste of foods.
B．To improve the service of stores.
C．To help supermarkets store foods.
D．To help people test food freshness.
9．What role does the smartphone play while PEGS are functioning
A．It acts as an electronic nose.
B．It reads the data collected by PEGS.
C．It helps print the gas sensors onto paper.
D．It discovers the spoilage gases from foods.
10．What does Dr.Firat Guder say about use by dates
A．They are not completely reliable.
B．They can help reduce food waste.
C．They are based on scientific research.
D．They are not accepted by the consumers.
11．What does the author mainly talk about in the text
A．The process of researching spoilage sensors.
B．A new technology in packaging to reduce food waste.
C．The application of spoilage sensors beyond food processing.
D．The influence of use by dates on supermarkets and consumers.
