The app rates recipes for popularity and other qualities and inform users about vegetables in season in different areas.
Happy Cow
The Happy Cow app is made freely for Vegetarians. Users can search for vegetarian restaurants and stores around the world. The Happy Cow app is based on the Happy Cow website, where users can discover places nearby or search using keywords.
Local Eats
Restaurant chains, like McDonalds, can be found almost anywhere a person might travel. But sometimes tourists want to eat like locals. The website and app Local Eats is designed for that, which can help you find local restaurants in major cities in the US and in other countries.

A. Open Table. B. Local Eats. C. Epicurious. D. Happy Cow.

A. App designers. B. Travelers. C. Vegetarians. D. Chefs.
3. This text introduces these apps to help people to ________.

【答案】1. A 2. B 3. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。大多数人都想吃的健康，但是有时候选择好食物很难，而本文就给读者介绍了几个帮助了解健康饮食的应用软件。
【1题详解】
细节推理题。根据Open Table中的Open Table users can also make reservations directly through the app or website.(Open Table用户也可以直接通过app或网站进行预订)可知，这一软件可以帮助人们提前预定饭菜。故选A。
【2题详解】
推理判断题。根据Local Eats中的Restaurant chains, like McDonalds, can be found almost anywhere a person might travel. But sometimes tourists want to eat like locals.(连锁餐厅，就像麦当劳一样，几乎可以在任何一个人可能去的地方找到。 但有时游客想像当地人一样吃饭)可推断，这一软件适合旅游者们。故选B。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段there are apps that can help people learn about the food they eat to improve their diets.(有一些应用程序可以帮助人们了解他们吃的食物，以改善他们的饮食)可知，文章介绍这几个软件是为了提高人们的饮食，使饮食更健康。故选C。
【点睛】推理判断题的解题方法：推理判断题不仅要求考生读懂文章中的每个句子的意思还要推理它们之间的关系， 结合自己的生活常识和经验，再通过逻辑推理和判断，理解文章的言外之意，从而揭示文章的深层涵义。例如小题3，根据第一段there are apps that can help people learn about the food they eat to improve their diets.(有一些应用程序可以帮助人们了解他们吃的食物，以改善他们的饮食)可知，文章介绍这几个软件是为了提高人们的饮食，使饮食更健康。故选C。推理判断题的答案不可能在文章中直接找到，因此推理时我们务必要忠于原文，在文章中寻找并确定可推论的依据，即：已知部分——推论的前提，从中推测出未知部分——推理的结论，切忌妄加评论，把自己的观点当成作者的观点。
B
As a kid, I was always around animals and I always enjoyed it. After my senior year of high school, we started renting this farm. Then I went away to Rhode Island School of Design to become an architect. After about two years and a half, I found that was not quite what I wanted to do. I felt I wanted to be an architect and have a hobby farm. But why not just have a farm and make it my career
It’s an exciting business. I think a lot of people don’t realize what’s involved with dairy farming (奶牛业). We took some trips to some progressive farms out in New York when we first started. And it really changed my attitude of what you can do. You can be a successful businessperson with a lot of challenges. And those challenges are part of what makes it very exciting — it’s not just milking cows. There’s nutrition and finances and a lot of big day-to-day decisions.
Well, land is the biggest obstacle. Securing enough land is important. We don’t just need the land for the animals; we also need it to distribute the manure from the cows. And there’s a real balance, a real recycling. You take the feed; you give it to the cows, and the cows give you milk, but they also give you a lot of manure. And the best thing to do is putting it back on the land. You need 2 acres per cow basically, a cow and its calf.
The land that we rent is beautiful and the land that we own is beautiful. If you get half a mile off the road and looking back at scenery across the valley, it’s impressive. You get the rows of grass and the cows in the distance.
4. Which of the following is included in the dairy farming according to the text
A. Designing for the dairy farming.
B. Playing with the cows around the farm.
C. Taking trips around the farm to enjoy life.
D. Milking cows, nutrition, finances and decisions.
5. What’s the biggest challenge that the author faced
A. Huge amounts of money. B. Securing enough land.
C. Highly qualified milk cows. D. Quantities of workers.
6. What’s the meaning of the underlined word in Paragraph 3
A. Milk from the cows. B. Chemical fertilizers.
C. Waste of the cows. D. Food offered to cows.
7. Which one is the best title for this text
A. Building a Successful Dairy Business
B. Famous Farmers Around the World
C. Highly Qualified Milk Cows
D. The Architecture Designer
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者从事奶牛农场经营的经历。作者喜欢动物，打算把经营农场作为自己的事业，文章也讲述了他在奶牛农场经营中遇到的挑战。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“And those challenges are part of what makes it very exciting—it’s not just milking cows. There’s nutrition and finances and a lot of big day-to-day decisions.(这些挑战是令人兴奋的部分原因——这不仅仅是挤奶。有营养和财务以及许多重大的日常决策)”可知，根据文章，奶牛养殖包括挤奶、营养、财务和日常决策。故选D。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Well, land is the biggest obstacle. Securing enough land is important. (好吧，土地是最大的障碍。确保足够的土地很重要)”可知，作者面临的最大挑战是确保有足够的土地，故选B。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词所在句子“We don’t just need the land for the animals; we also need it to distribute the manure from the cows. (我们不仅需要为动物提供土地；我们还需要它来分配奶牛的manure)”和下文“And there’s a real balance, a real recycling. You take the feed; you give it to the cows, and the cows give you milk, but they also give you a lot of manure.(这是真正的平衡，真正的回收。你接受饲料；你把它给奶牛，奶牛给你牛奶，但它们也给你很多manure)”以及常识可知，奶牛不仅产奶，而且还会产生大量粪便，粪便被回收，作为土地的营养，由此可推知，划线单词意为“粪便”，与C项“牛的粪便。”意思一样，故选C。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“It’s an exciting business. I think a lot of people don’t realize what’s involved with dairy farming (奶牛业). We took some trips to some progressive farms out in New York when we first started. And it really changed my attitude of what you can do. You can be a successful businessperson with a lot of challenges. And those challenges are part of what makes it very exciting — it’s not just milking cows. There’s nutrition and finances and a lot of big day-to-day decisions.(这是一项令人兴奋的事业。我认为很多人不了解奶牛业涉及什么。刚开始时，我们去了纽约的一些先进农场。这确实改变了我对你能做什么的态度。你可以成为一名成功的商人，同时面临很多挑战。这些挑战是令人兴奋的部分原因——这不仅仅是挤奶，且关于营养和财务以及许多重大的日常决策)”可知，文章主要介绍了作者成功建立乳品企业的经历，A项“建立成功的乳制品企业”适合作文章标题，故选A。
C
When I was small, my mother and I would walk to our local library in Franklin Square. As we didn’t always have access to a reliable car, walking hand in hand was the most convenient way to get anywhere. It was at story time for children that both my mother and I made lasting friendships.
Today, I am fortunate to live around the corner from the Gold Coast Public Library in Glen Head and a short walk to the Sea Cliff Children’s Library. My 18-month-old son, Colin, and I find ourselves in Sea Cliff several times a week, meeting and making friends. Well, that is what many people don’t understand — a library is more than books; it’s a community.
Sure, the library in Franklin Square was the place where I was introduced to Judy Blume novels. But it was also the place where I got my first e-mail address in 1997. At the library, friends and I learned how to research colleges and search for scholarships on the Internet. The library was the place where we sometimes giggled (咯咯地笑) too loudly, and where the librarians knew us by name. Their knowing our names wasn’t a bad thing. When I came home from my first term at Binghamton University, Mary LaRosa, the librarian at the Franklin Square library offered me my first teaching job.
I now teach reading at Nassau Community College. My students are often amazed that they can check out books via their smartphones and virtually visit a variety of Long Island libraries. The app used by Nassau and Suffolk county public libraries, as well as the college library, makes their homework easier by helping them find resources. Even though they can’t always easily visit their local libraries, the library is always with them.
8. Why does the author consider herself lucky today
A. She has become her mother’s best friend.
B. She has access to a reliable car now.
C. She can meet friends at the library.
D. She lives close to libraries.
9. What did the author do at the library according to the passage
A. She told stories to her mother. B. She initially read Judy Blume novels.
C. She got her current teaching job. D. She learned how to go online.
10. What is the author’s attitude to her students’ way of visiting libraries
A. Cautious. B. Ambiguous. C. Favourable. D. Disapproving.
11. Why does the author write the text
A. To express how libraries change.
B. To introduce her favourite libraries.
C. To express her deep concern for libraries.
D. To discuss why libraries are important.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了从作者小时候到成家生子再到工作教书这一路上图书馆的变化。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Today, I am fortunate to live around the corner from the Gold Coast Public Library in Glen Head and a short walk to the Sea Cliff Children’s Library.(今天，我很幸运地住在格伦黑德黄金海岸公共图书馆的拐角处，步行不远就能到达海崖儿童图书馆)”可知，作者认为自己很幸运是因为她住得离图书馆很近。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Sure, the library in Franklin Square was the place where I was introduced to Judy Blume novels.(当然，富兰克林广场的图书馆是我初次了解朱迪·布鲁姆小说的地方)”可知，作者最初在图书馆读到了朱迪·布鲁姆的小说。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“My students are often amazed that they can check out books via their smartphones and virtually visit a variety of Long Island libraries. The app used by Nassau and Suffolk county public libraries, as well as the college library, makes their homework easier by helping them find resources. Even though they can’t always easily visit their local libraries, the library is always with them.(我的学生们经常感到惊讶的是，他们可以通过智能手机借书，还可以参观长岛的各种图书馆。拿骚县和萨福克县公共图书馆以及大学图书馆使用的应用程序通过帮助他们查找资源，使他们的家庭作业更容易。尽管他们不能总是容易地参观当地的图书馆，但图书馆总是与他们同在)”可知，学生可以使用图书馆的应用程序查找资源，帮助做家庭作业，虽然学生不能总是容易地去当地的图书馆，但可以通过访问虚拟图书馆来获取想要的资源。由此可推测出，作者对学生们访问虚拟图书馆的方式是支持的。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。第一段讲述了作者小时候和妈妈一起去图书馆，作者和母亲在给儿童讲故事的时候建立了持久的友谊；第二段讲述了作者和儿子经常去图书馆见朋友和交朋友，图书馆是一个社区；第三段讲述了作者在图书馆里阅读小说、注册了电子邮箱、在网上查阅资料，这里是作者和朋友欢聚的地方，并且作者他们与那里的图书馆管理员建立了良好的关系；最后一段讲述了作者在大学教书时学生们能够非常便利地访问虚拟图书馆。由此可推测出，本文主要讲述了从作者小时候到成家生子再到工作教书这一路上图书馆的变化。故选A。
D
It's no secret that inhaling(吸入)smoke is bad for your lungs. But now, scientists are suggesting smoke may also carry and spread infectious diseases. The theory, published in Science Magazine, is based on the research that found wildfire smoke is full of thousands of species of microorganisms(微生物).Some of these microorganisms, including bacteria and fungal spores(真菌抱子).are known to cause disease.
The new research suggests that when a wildfire burns plants or animal matter and disturbs soils, it exposes thousands of species of bacteria and fungi that otherwise might not easily become airborne. You might think the high heat from fire would kill these organisms, but one study mentioned in the article found that some bacteria even multiply after fires. Scientists say the organisms stick with smoke particulates(颗粒物), allowing them to travel thousands of miles across continents.
Dr. Peter Chen, director of the Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, is interested in the theory but somewhat skeptical that the microorganisms in smoke would actually cause infections. Many bacteria and fungi don't cause lung infections, says Chen, but it's certainly possible that a significant number could worsen symptoms in someone with a preexisting lung condition. "I always thought it was the particulates in smoke that were causing these issues," says Chen. "But when I read this, I started thinking, could it be the microorganisms that are also worsening existing illnesses "
Whether the microorganisms in smoke actually cause infections or simply worsen potential respiratory(呼吸的)issues, the article raises a new health threat that is "certainly alarming", says Kelsey Jack, an associate professor of environmental and development economics. This is especially true for lower-income populations, Jack says, because people with fewer protective means are often more exposed to the environment. If smoke is affecting the air quality in a certain area, the people who work outside, or who have to go to the office on foot or by bike will inhale more smoke than those who drive.
But until more research is done, Chen says the best thing people can do is just follow existing recommendations when air quality is poor-including staying indoors, keeping windows and doors closed, using HEPA filters and running air conditioning.
12. What can we know about the microorganisms from Paragraph 2
A. Some could reproduce after fires.
B. They could be killed by high heat.
C. They could possibly travel through air by themselves.
D. Some could copy the smoke particulates.
13. How do most microorganisms affect people according to Dr. Peter Chen
A. They will cause lung infection. B. They might worsen lung diseases.
C. They will destroy living environments. D. They might damage respiratory systems.
14. Why are lower-income people suffering more than others according to Kelsey Jack
A. They live in poor areas. B. They drive to and from work·
C. They have suffered from lung disease. D. They are exposed to polluted air more frequently.
15. What does Chen advise people to do in the last paragraph
A. To wait for the results of more researches.
B. To ignore the air quality and to work out outdoors.
C. To follow previous suggestions on dealing with poor air quality.
D. To avoid using filters and air conditioning.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。科学家们认为烟雾也可能携带和传播传染病。发表在《科学》杂志上的这一理论基于一项研究，该研究发现野火烟雾中充满了数千种微生物。其中一些微生物会引起疾病。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的 “You might think the high heat from fire would kill these organisms, but one study mentioned in the article found that some bacteria even multiply after fires.”（你可能认为大火的高温会杀死这些生物，但文章中提到的一项研究发现，一些细菌在火灾后甚至会繁殖。）可知，从第二段我们可以了解到有些微生物在火灾后还能再生。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的 “Many bacteria and fungi don't cause lung infections, says Chen, but it's certainly possible that a significant number could worsen symptoms in someone with a preexisting lung condition.”（陈教授说，许多细菌和真菌不会引起肺部感染，但有相当数量的细菌和真菌可能会使已有肺部疾病的人的症状恶化。）可知，陈彼得博士认为大多数微生物可能会加重肺部疾病。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的 “This is especially true for lower-income populations, Jack says, because people with fewer protective means are often more exposed to the environment.”（这对低收入人群来说尤其如此，杰克说，因为保护手段较少的人往往更容易暴露在环境中。）可知，烟雾会传播疾病这件事对低收入的人群有更大的影响，是因为他们更多地直接接触环境。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“But until more research is done, Chen says the best thing people can do is just follow existing recommendations when air quality is poor-including staying indoors, keeping windows and doors closed, using HEPA filters and running air conditioning.”（但在更多的研究完成之前，陈教授说，人们能做的最好的事情就是在空气质量差的时候遵循现有的建议——包括待在室内、关好门窗、使用高效空气过滤器和开空调。）可知，Dr. Chen 在最后一段建议人们遵循现有的避开恶劣空气的建议。故选C。

上文“Ding Ning has won many awards during her table tennis career, including an Olympic gold medal in women’s table tennis singles. (丁宁在乒乓球生涯中获得了许多奖项，其中包括奥运会女子乒乓球单打金牌。)”指出丁宁在乒乓球生涯中获得了许多奖项，下文“She has started a new chapter as a graduate student at the Department of Physical Education at Peking University.(作为北京大学体育系研究生，她开启了新的篇章)”指出丁宁已经开始了新的学习生活，这说明丁宁已经退役，并开始了新的生活，D项“她于9月6日宣布退役”符合。故选D。

【20题详解】
上文“She hopes that in the future, she can teach teenagers about healthy exercise.(她希望将来能向青少年传授健康锻炼知识)”指出丁宁希望未来能向青少年传授健康锻炼知识，空处承接上文，指出该如何向青少年传授健康锻炼知识，E项“这不仅是通过她的经验，而且通过理论”符合，That代指上文“teach teenagers about healthy exercise”。故选E。

As a kid, I was always around animals and I always enjoyed it. After my senior year of high school, we started renting this farm. Then I went away to Rhode Island School of Design to become an architect. After about two years and a half, I found that was not quite what I wanted to do. I felt I wanted to be an architect and have a hobby farm. But why not just have a farm and make it my career
It’s an exciting business. I think a lot of people don’t realize what’s involved with dairy farming (奶牛业). We took some trips to some progressive farms out in New York when we first started. And it really changed my attitude of what you can do. You can be a successful businessperson with a lot of challenges. And those challenges are part of what makes it very exciting — it’s not just milking cows. There’s nutrition and finances and a lot of big day-to-day decisions.
Well, land is the biggest obstacle. Securing enough land is important. We don’t just need the land for the animals; we also need it to distribute the manure from the cows. And there’s a real balance, a real recycling. You take the feed; you give it to the cows, and the cows give you milk, but they also give you a lot of manure. And the best thing to do is putting it back on the land. You need 2 acres per cow basically, a cow and its calf.
The land that we rent is beautiful and the land that we own is beautiful. If you get half a mile off the road and looking back at scenery across the valley, it’s impressive. You get the rows of grass and the cows in the distance.
4. Which of the following is included in the dairy farming according to the text
A. Designing for the dairy farming.
B. Playing with the cows around the farm.
C. Taking trips around the farm to enjoy life.
D. Milking cows, nutrition, finances and decisions.
5. What’s the biggest challenge that the author faced
A. Huge amounts of money. B. Securing enough land.
C. Highly qualified milk cows. D. Quantities of workers.
6. What’s the meaning of the underlined word in Paragraph 3
A. Milk from the cows. B. Chemical fertilizers.
C. Waste of the cows. D. Food offered to cows.
7. Which one is the best title for this text
A. Building a Successful Dairy Business
B Famous Farmers Around the World
C. Highly Qualified Milk Cows
D. The Architecture Designer
C
When I was small, my mother and I would walk to our local library in Franklin Square. As we didn’t always have access to a reliable car, walking hand in hand was the most convenient way to get anywhere. It was at story time for children that both my mother and I made lasting friendships.
Today, I am fortunate to live around the corner from the Gold Coast Public Library in Glen Head and a short walk to the Sea Cliff Children’s Library. My 18-month-old son, Colin, and I find ourselves in Sea Cliff several times a week, meeting and making friends. Well, that is what many people don’t understand — a library is more than books; it’s a community.
Sure, the library in Franklin Square was the place where I was introduced to Judy Blume novels. But it was also the place where I got my first e-mail address in 1997. At the library, friends and I learned how to research colleges and search for scholarships on the Internet. The library was the place where we sometimes giggled (咯咯地笑) too loudly, and where the librarians knew us by name. Their knowing our names wasn’t a bad thing. When I came home from my first term at Binghamton University, Mary LaRosa, the librarian at the Franklin Square library offered me my first teaching job.
I now teach reading at Nassau Community College. My students are often amazed that they can check out books via their smartphones and virtually visit a variety of Long Island libraries.

It's no secret that inhaling(吸入)smoke is bad for your lungs. But now, scientists are suggesting smoke may also carry and spread infectious diseases. The theory, published in Science Magazine, is based on the research that found wildfire smoke is full of thousands of species of microorganisms(微生物).Some of these microorganisms, including bacteria and fungal spores(真菌抱子).are known to cause disease.
The new research suggests that when a wildfire burns plants or animal matter and disturbs soils, it exposes thousands of species of bacteria and fungi that otherwise might not easily become airborne. You might think the high heat from fire would kill these organisms, but one study mentioned in the article found that some bacteria even multiply after fires. Scientists say the organisms stick with smoke particulates(颗粒物), allowing them to travel thousands of miles across continents.
Dr. Peter Chen, director of the Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, is interested in the theory but somewhat skeptical that the microorganisms in smoke would actually cause infections. Many bacteria and fungi don't cause lung infections, says Chen, but it's certainly possible that a significant number could worsen symptoms in someone with a preexisting lung condition. "I always thought it was the particulates in smoke that were causing these issues," says Chen. "But when I read this, I started thinking, could it be the microorganisms that are also worsening existing illnesses "
Whether the microorganisms in smoke actually cause infections or simply worsen potential respiratory(呼吸的)issues, the article raises a new health threat that is "certainly alarming", says Kelsey Jack, an associate professor of environmental and development economics. This is especially true for lower-income populations, Jack says, because people with fewer protective means are often more exposed to the environment. If smoke is affecting the air quality in a certain area, the people who work outside, or who have to go to the office on foot or by bike will inhale more smoke than those who drive.
But until more research is done, Chen says the best thing people can do is just follow existing recommendations when air quality is poor-including staying indoors, keeping windows and doors closed, using HEPA filters and running air conditioning.
12. What can we know about the microorganisms from Paragraph 2
A. Some could reproduce after fires.
B. They could be killed by high heat.
C. They could possibly travel through air by themselves.
D. Some could copy the smoke particulates.
13. How do most microorganisms affect people according to Dr. Peter Chen
A. They will cause lung infection. B. They might worsen lung diseases.
C. They will destroy living environments. D. They might damage respiratory systems.
14. Why are lower-income people suffering more than others according to Kelsey Jack
A. They live in poor areas. B. They drive to and from work·
C. They have suffered from lung disease. D. They are exposed to polluted air more frequently.
15. What does Chen advise people to do in the last paragraph
A To wait for the results of more researches.
B. To ignore the air quality and to work out outdoors.
C. To follow previous suggestions on dealing with poor air quality.
D. To avoid using filters and air conditioning.
