阅读理解练习
（23-24高一下·湖南·阶段练习）As people are becoming more socially conscious about where their food comes from and how it impacts the planet, they are choosing animal-free plant-based options. Cow-free meat has been around for quite some time and the popularity of the cultivated (培育的) meat from Aleph Farms and others are soaring. While there are a large number of plant-based milk substitutes (替代品), none of them have the same taste of cow’s milk. Now, an Israeli food-tech startup Remilk created real dairy products without harming a single cow or the planet.
The company stresses that their product Remilk is not a milk substitute but rather is the real deal. And the end product is very healthy. The company also says that the lab-produced milk tastes identical to the real thing and they hope to eventually replace cows by creating every dairy product sold. They expect to roll out plant-based cheese and yogurt in addition to milk. “Remil k was founded with the mission to stop using animals to produce our food because, as dairy lovers, we realize that giving up on milk is not an option,” said Aviv Wolff, CEO of Remilk. “But today’s milk comes with an unreasonable price tag. The dairy industry is destructive to our planet, our health, and our animals, and is simply not sustainable anymore.”
The environmental price tag of dairy farming is way too high. According to the World Wildlife Fund, dairy cows add a huge amount of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere and contribute to global warming and climate change as well as foul the air around them. Dairy operations consume large amounts of water and run-off of manure (粪肥) and fertilizers from these farms get into local waterways. The production of Remilk uses only 5percent of the resources and produces only 1 percent of the waste of producing cow’s milk according to the company. And they accomplish this by being 100 percent cruelty-free unlike dairy farms.

（23-24高一下·黑龙江鸡西·期中）One debate about chicken eggs is why white eggs usually cost more than brown ones. Some people think white eggs are more nutritious (有营养的). Is that true According to Sherman Hickman, the director of community outreach and education for Hickman’s Family Farms, it’s first important to know why chickens have different egg colors.
Jesse LaFlamme is the CEO of Pete and Gerry’s Organic Egg. She says, the chicken breed (品种) decides whether or not hens have pigment genes, the natural chemical that results in a colored shell. Although all eggs start out white in color, shell color can change from white to brown and even blue in some rare breeds. An interesting way to know what color eggs a hen lays is to look at the color of its ear feathers (羽毛), LaFlamme says. Breeds such as the Leghorn chickens lay white eggs, while Orpington chickens lay brown eggs and Ameraucana chickens produce blue eggs.
Hickman notes that the Leghorn breed is a popular choice for farmers because it lays more eggs. Hens that produce colored eggshells, however, usually are larger and require more feed and energy to create that painted shells. Since those breeds cost more to feed, their eggs are more expensive.
Although eggs sometimes look different and are priced differently, it’s impossible to know their nutrition according to shell color alone. “Choosing between brown and white eggs is a matter of personal preference,” Malina Linkas Malkani, media spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, says. “But it’s important for people to know that the color of the eggshell is related to the breed of the hen, not the egg’s nutrition, quality or shell thickness.” What does affect the nutrition is the specific food the hen eats, according to Malkani.
5．What decides the color of eggshells
A．Hens’ breed.
B．Eggs’ nutrition.
C．Shell thickness.
D．Hens’ ear feathers.
6．Which one among the following matches is right
A．Ameraucana chickens lay white eggs
B．Orpington chickens lay brown eggs
C．Leghorn chickens lay blue eggs
D．Hickman’s Family Farms chickens lay red eggs
7．Why are eggs of Leghorn chickens more expensive
A．They lay rare eggs.
B．Raising them costs more.
C．Their eggshells are white.
D．Their eggs are more nutritious.
8．What does Malina Linkas Malkani try to explain
A．Why eggs are priced differently.
B．What color of eggs people like best.
C．What decides the nutrition of eggs.
D．Why people like to eat eggs.
（23-24高一下·江苏扬州·阶段练习）Many dishes make up the world of Garifuna food, but hudutu is probably its signature (明显的特色). The dish is closest to Yolanda Castillo’s heart.
The head chef of Chicago’s Garifuna Flava, Castillo developed a love for food earlier. It was in her native country of Belize that she learned the secrets of making hudutu. “My mom showed me the traditional way of cooking our Garifuna food.” she says.
After moving to Chicago with her husband, Castillo stayed true to her roots, gathering family members for grand meals. Not a single visit happened without someone praising Castillo’s ability to copy her mother’s traditional Garifuna recipes.
“My husband would always say, ‘One day, I’m going to open a restaurant for her.’” Castillo says. In 2008, the couple’s restaurant, Garifuna Flava, opened its doors in Chicago. In addition to Garifuna food, Garifuna Flava serves up Belizean food like rice and beans. “It’s amazing to see how many people from around the world have been here to taste our Garifuna food.” she says.
“Garifuna food, in particular, tells us a Caribbean story and a Central American story,” says López Oro, whose work focuses on later generations of Garifuna immigrants.(移民) “It gives us an opportunity to really think about the generational history of Garifuna migration.”
Though hudutu requires much work, Castillo uses a food processor to speed things up. The more hudutu she’s able to make, the more she’s able to sell—increasing the possibility of introducing the food to a wider, ever-hungry audience.
“I think people are really devoted to making hudutu a household name,” says López Oro, referring to the dish and the urgency many Garinagu feel about protecting their history, in part, through their food’s most famous dish.
9．What did Yolanda Castillo do after settling in Chicago
A．She gathered families every weekend. B．She maintained the traditions of the food.
C．She developed a true love for cooking. D．She got married with Rhodel Castillo.
10．What can we know about Garifuna Flava
A．It has received diners from many countries. B．It was passed down from Castillo’s mother.
C．It primarily serves people rice and beans. D．It has already become a tourist attraction.
11．What can we infer about Garifuna food from the words of López Oro
A．It is easy for people to cook by themselves. B．It has been well-protected throughout history.
C．It inspired him to study the Garifuna history. D．It reflects the mixture of different cultures.
12．Why does Castill o use a food processor to make hudutu
A．To promote Garifuna food more efficiently. B．To follow health tendency in the food industry.
C．To increase the real income of her restaurant. D．To improve the appeal of hudutu worldwide.
（23-24高一下·河北保定·期中）A new course on world heritage and its conservation offers a good opportunity for the young people to learn about the legacy (遗产) of humanity and gain a sense of responsibility to help protect the planet we live on.
According to a world heritage education programme jointly launched by the United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and China’s Ministry of Education, the course will first be offered at several schools in Beijing before being included as a mandatory course (必修课) for high school students nationwide.
The new course covers photos, slide shows and documentaries on the magnificence of the world heritage sites.

A total of 177 nations, including China, have signed the Convention Concerning the Protection of World Cultural and Natural Heritage. Listed are 754 sites all over the world, of which 29 are in China — the third most after Spain and Italy. Currently, protection of the country’s cultural and natural resources leaves much to be desired. Education is undoubtedly the best way to cultivate people’s sense for protecting cultural and natural resources.
The introduction of such a programme in Chinese classrooms will certainly help our young people realize
the significance of common heritage, learning about world heritage sites, the history and traditions of different cultures, ecology, and the importance of protecting biological and cultural diversity.
More importantly, it will help cultivate a sense of responsibility in the minds of young participants. This is critical in protecting these cultural and natural legacies, as well as our living environment and the limited resources for sustainable development.

（23-24高一下·四川泸州·阶段练习）Poland is known for food that is rich in meat. But as in many countries across the world, recent years have witnessed a rise in plant-based living. If you’re a vegetarian traveller in Gdansk looking for some meat-free options, make sure to pay these restaurants a visit!

Zakwasownia

（23-24高一下·江西南昌·期中）Of all the Chinese 24 solar terms, Clear and Bright (清明) is the only one whose first day is also a traditional Chinese festival, the Qingming Festival. The words “clear” and “bright” describe the weather during this period. Temperatures begin to rise and rainfall increases, making it an important time for growing crops in the spring. As is known, it is a time to worship (祭拜) ancestors, however, here are several things you may not know about Clear and Bright.Spring Outings
Not only is it a period to honor the dead, but it is also time for people to go out and enjoy nature. As trees turn green, flowers blossom, and the sun shines brightly, everything returns to life. It is a fine time to appreciate the beauty of nature.Flying Kites
Flying kites is an activity favored by many Chinese during Tomb-Sweeping Day. Kites are not only flown during the day time but also in the evening. Little lanterns are tied to the kites. And when the kites are flying in the sky, the lanterns look like twinkling stars at night. What makes flying kites during this day special is that people cut the string while the kite is in the sky to let it fly freely. It is said that this brings good luck and that diseases can be chased away by doing this.Cuju
Cuju is an interesting game played during this period. Ju is a ball made of leather with hairs plugged in it. Legend has it that the Yellow Emperor first invented it for training warriors. Later, Cuju was used by people to build up their bodies when they were unable to eat hot food during the Cold Food Festival.Feasting on Qingtuan
In the lower parts of the Yangtze River region, qingtuan is very popular on Tomb-Sweeping Day. Qingtuan is a kind of round green cake.

（23-24高一下·新疆乌鲁木齐·期中）Lion dance is a valued tradition deeply rooted in South China’s Guangdong province and among Chinese communities in Southeast Asian countries. Historically, this art form was only practiced by men. However, a unique team consisting entirely of teenage girls stands out among all the male groups — they are the Nanxing Hexingtang Women’s Lion Dance Team from the town of Ren he in Guangzhou.
Nearly every village in Guangzhou has its own lion dance team. Yet as of 2018, Hexingtang had only male participants. As there was a decline in the number of young people practicing lion dance, it accepted a few young girls. The journey was far from smooth for the girls. They were once hired to perform for a family on the first day of Chinese New Year. When the family realized that it was the girls who would be performing, they erupted in anger and chased them away. Then Hexingtang decided to formally establish a women’s team to make the female lion dance leagal. They customized flags and banners printed with “women’s team”, crafted pink and purple lion heads, which are rarely seen in male lion dance, and even fashioned a lion head looking like the image of the female general Mu Guiying, a famous figure in Yue Opera.
It was hoped that after the girls won awards and proved themselves, they might be accepted by more people. Their breakthrough came in 2021 when the girls beat all-male teams and won the first prize in a competition in Guangzhou’s Baiyun district. The following year, at the 16th Guangdong Provincial Games, the girls once again got the top prize in the junior group, representing Guangzhou. Since then, they have continued to win awards. In the recent Maofeng Mountain competition just before Spring Festival in Guangzhou, the team performed a routine titled “Tramping Over Mountains and Hills Step by Step”, which mirrors the growth journey of these girls themselves as they navigate through numerous challenges. Behind this near-perfect performance is
girls’ dedication and hard work.
Lion dance is not easy, especially for girls, as it demands significant strength and mastery of martial arts movements. However, girls possess unique advantages and can cultivate a distinctive style. Girls typically have a keen understanding of music, performing perfectly in both lion and instrument roles. Furthermore, their superior physical flexibility allows them to complete difficult moves. Most importantly, their sensitivity enables them to capture the expressions and behaviors of lions.

A．It is a tradition rooted in all Asian countries.
B．Only men could practice lion dance in the past.

“The robot chefs can actually compete with famous chefs from Shunde, which is known for its delicious dishes at home and abroad,” said a diner surnamed Chen. Chen and his friends praised the delicious food cooked

（23-24高一下·贵州六盘水·期中）Tea is currently the world’s most popular drink, only after water.
However, there was a time when tea was known only to the Chinese. So, how did tea originate in China And how did it get to conquer the world to the extent that people often describe something they really like as their “cup of tea”
While we know that tea drink started in China, its true origin remains something unknown. Legend has it that about 5, 000 years ago, Shennong came across tea when dried leaves blew into a pot of boiling water. Following his discovery, tea was used as medicine, included in meals and later offered as a refreshing drink to officials and noblemen. Eventually, it became a common drink enjoyed by all Chinese people.
The love of tea inspired many people to write about it. Over the years, tea drinking became an important part of China’s rich culture. The great poet Du Fu described his tea-drinking experience in poetic language. Lu Yu, a tea master, wrote The Classic of Tea, which remains the earliest and most famous detailed study on tea in the world.
It is then not surprising that the beauty of tea was eventually spread to a wider world. Tang and Song Dynasties needed strong Tibetan horses, so the Tea Horse Road was born. Porters (脚夫) carrying back-breaking loads of tea bricks made their way through dangerous snow-covered mountain passes, to trade Sichuan and Yunnan tea for horses. Over time, the gift of tea was further delivered to Western Asia and Easten Africa. As early as the Tang Dynasty, Saicho, a Japanese monk came to study in China and took tea seeds and tea-making customs to Japan. Around the 1600s, tea was shipped to Europe from China by Portuguese and Dutch sea traders.
35．What was tea first used as in China
A．Medicine. B．Drink. C．Food. D．Goods.
36．Who wrote the earliest detailed study on tea
A．Shennong. B．Saicho. C．Du Fu. D．Lu Yu.
37．How was tea spread to Europe
A．Taken by monks. B．Carried by porters.
C．Shipped by traders. D．Delivered by horses.
38．What is the purpose of the text
A．To study the customs of tea. B．To introduce the history of tea.
C．To show the importance of tea. D．To describe different uses of tea.
二、语法填空
参考答案：
1．D 2．A 3．C 4．D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了一家食品初创公司在不伤害奶牛或地球的情况下生产出了真正的乳制品，并介绍了这种乳制品的特点，生产过程和公司未来的发展方向。
1．词句猜测题。划线词前文“As people are becoming more socially conscious about where their food comes from and how it impacts the planet, they are choosing animal-free plant-based options. (随着人们对食物的来源及其对地球的影响越来越有社会意识，他们正在选择非动物的植物性食品。)”说明非动物的植物性食品越来越受到人们欢迎，从而推知划线词句“Cow-free meat has been around for quite some time and the popularity of the cultivated(培育的) meat from Aleph Farms and others are soaring.(无牛(非动物的)肉已经存在了很长一段时间，Aleph农场和其他农场的养殖肉的受欢迎程度正在soaring。)”其中划线部分意思是“增加，增长”。故选D项。
2．推理判断题。根据第二段中“‘Remilk was founded with the mission to stop using animals to produce our food because, as dairy lovers, we realize that giving up on milk is not an option,’ said Aviv Wolff, CEO of Remilk.’ But today’s milk comes with an unreasonable price tag. The dairy industry is destructive to our planet, our health, and our animals, and is simply not sustainable anymore.’(首席执行官Aviv Wolff说：‘Remilk成立的使命是停止使用动物来生产我们的食物，因为作为乳制品爱好者，我们意识到放弃牛奶是不可能的。但现在牛奶的标价不合理。乳制品行业对我们的星球、我们的健康和我们的动物都是毁灭性的，而且再也不能持续下去了。’)”可知，Wolff对于Remilk的做法是支持和赞成的。故选A项。
3．推理判断题。根据最后一段“The environmental price tag of dairy farming is way too high. According to the World Wildlife Fund, dairy cows add a huge amount of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere and contribute to global warming and climate change as well as foul the air around them. Dairy operations consume large amounts of water and run-off of manure(粪肥) and fertilizers from these farms get into local waterways. The production of Remilk uses only 5percent of the resources and produces only 1 percent of the waste of producing cow’s milk according to the company. And they accomplish this by being 100 percent cruelty-free unlike dairy farms. (乳品养殖场的环境成本太高了。根据世界野生动物基金会的说法，奶牛向大气中增加了大量的温室气体，导致全球变暖和气候变化，还污染了它们周围的空气。乳制品生产消耗大量的水，这些农场的粪便和肥料流入当地水道。据该公司称，Remilk的生产只使用了5%的资源，产
生的废物也只有传统奶牛生产的1%。他们实现这一点的方式是100%不像乳品养殖场那样残酷。)”可知，作者比较了现在奶牛场生产的和Remilk生产所耗用的资源，以及造成的废物等，所以可推断是用了对比的方法。故选C项。
4．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其根据第一段中“Now, an Israeli food-tech startup Remilk created real dairy products without harming a single co w or the planet.(现在，以色列一家食品科技初创公司Remilk制造出了真正不伤害一头奶牛或地球的乳制品。)”可知，文章主要讲述了一家食品初创公司在不伤害奶牛或地球的情况下生产出了真正的乳制品，并介绍了这种乳制品的特点，生产过程和公司未来的发展方向。D“不用奶牛生产牛奶”符合文章大意，适合做标题，故选D项。
5．A 6．B 7．B 8．C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了为什么白色鸡蛋通常比棕色鸡蛋贵以及白色鸡蛋和棕色鸡蛋的营养等话题。
5．细节理解题。根据第二段“Jesse LaFlamme is the CEO of Pete and Gerry’s Organic Egg. She says, the chicken breed (品种) decides whether or not hens have pigment genes, the natural chemical that results in a colored shell. (杰西·拉弗拉姆是皮特和格里有机鸡蛋公司的首席执行官。她说，鸡的品种决定了母鸡是否有色素基因，这是一种天然的化学物质，会导致母鸡的蛋壳呈彩色)”可知，母鸡的品种决定了蛋壳的颜色。故选A。
6．细节理解题。根据第二段“Breeds such as the Leghorn chickens lay white eggs, while Orpington chickens lay brown eggs and Ameraucana chickens produce blue eggs. (品种如下，Leghorn鸡下的蛋是白色的，而Orpington鸡下的蛋是棕色的，Ameraucana鸡下的蛋是蓝色的)”可知，Orpington鸡下的蛋是棕色的正确。故选B。
7．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Hickman notes that the Leghorn breed is a popular choice for farmers because it lays more eggs. Hens that produce colored eggshells, however, usually are larger and require more feed and energy to create that painted shells. Since those breeds cost more to feed, their eggs are more expensive. (希克曼指出，Leghorn品种是农民的热门选择，因为它能下更多的蛋。然而，产彩色蛋壳的母鸡通常更大，需要更多的饲料和能量来生产彩色蛋壳。由于这些品种的饲料成本更高，它们的鸡蛋也更贵)”可知，Leghorn鸡通常更大，需要更多的饲料和能量，所以成本更高，鸡蛋也更贵。故选B。

（23-24高一下·湖南·阶段练习）As people are becoming more socially conscious about where their food comes from and how it impacts the planet, they are choosing animal-free plant-based options. Cow-free meat has been around for quite some time and the popularity of the cultivated (培育的) meat from Aleph Farms and others are soaring. While there are a large number of plant-based milk substitutes (替代品), none of them have the same taste of cow’s milk. Now, an Israeli food-tech startup Remilk created real dairy products without harming a single cow or the planet.
The company stresses that their product Remilk is not a milk substitute but rather is the real deal. And the end product is very healthy. The company also says that the lab-produced milk tastes identical to the real thing and they hope to eventually replace cows by creating every dairy product sold. They expect to roll out plant-based cheese and yogurt in addition to milk. “Remil k was founded with the mission to stop using animals to produce our food because, as dairy lovers, we realize that giving up on milk is not an option,” said Aviv Wolff, CEO of Remilk. “But today’s milk comes with an unreasonable price tag. The dairy industry is destructive to our planet, our health, and our animals, and is simply not sustainable anymore.”
The environmental price tag of dairy farming is way too high. According to the World Wildlife Fund, dairy cows add a huge amount of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere and contribute to global warming and climate change as well as foul the air around them. Dairy operations consume large amounts of water and run-off of manure (粪肥) and fertilizers from these farms get into local waterways. The production of Remilk uses only 5percent of the resources and produces only 1 percent of the waste of producing cow’s milk according to the company. And they accomplish this by being 100 percent cruelty-free unlike dairy farms.
1．What does the underlined word soaring in Para. 1 mean
A．Recovering. B．Disappearing. C．Declining. D．Increasing.
2．What is Wolff’s attitude to Remilk

（23-24高一下·黑龙江鸡西·期中）One debate about chicken eggs is why white eggs usually cost more than brown ones. Some people think white eggs are more nutritious (有营养的). Is that true According to Sherman Hickman, the director of community outreach and education for Hickman’s Family Farms, it’s first important to know why chickens have different egg colors.
Jesse LaFlamme is the CEO of Pete and Gerry’s Organic Egg. She says, the chicken breed (品种) decides whether or not hens have pigment genes, the natural chemical that results in a colored shell. Although all eggs start out white in color, shell color can change from white to brown and even blue in some rare breeds. An interesting way to know what color eggs a hen lays is to look at the color of its ear feathers (羽毛), LaFlamme says. Breeds such as the Leghorn chickens lay white eggs, while Orpington chickens lay brown eggs and Ameraucana chickens produce blue eggs.
Hickman notes that the Leghorn breed is a popular choice for farmers because it lays more eggs. Hens that produce colored eggshells, however, usually are larger and require more feed and energy to create that painted shells. Since those breeds cost more to feed, their eggs are more expensive.
Although eggs sometimes look different and are priced differently, it’s impossible to know their nutrition according to shell color alone. “Choosing between brown and white eggs is a matter of personal preference,” Malina Linkas Malkani, media spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, says. “But it’s important for people to know that the color of the eggshell is related to the breed of the hen, not the egg’s nutrition, quality or shell thickness.” What does affect the nutrition is the specific food the hen eats, according to Malkani.
5．What decides the color of eggshells
A．Hens’ breed.
B．Eggs’ nutrition.
C．Shell thickness.
D．Hens’ ear feathers.
6．Which one among the following matches is right

A．They lay rare eggs.
B．Raising them costs more.
C．Their eggshells are white.
D．Their eggs are more nutritious.
8．What does Malina Linkas Malkani try to explain
A．Why eggs are priced differently.

（23-24高一下·江苏扬州·阶段练习）Many dishes make up the world of Garifuna food, but hudutu is probably its signature (明显的特色). The dish is closest to Yolanda Castillo’s heart.
The head chef of Chicago’s Garifuna Flava, Castillo developed a love for food earlier. It was in her native country of Belize that she learned the secrets of making hudutu. “My mom showed me the traditional way of cooking our Garifuna food.” she says.
After moving to Chicago with her husband, Castillo stayed true to her roots, gathering family members for grand meals. Not a single visit happened without someone praising Castillo’s ability to copy her mother’s traditional Garifuna recipes.
“My husband would always say, ‘One day, I’m going to open a restaurant for her.’” Castillo says. In 2008, the couple’s restaurant, Garifuna Flava, opened its doors in Chicago. In addition to Garifuna food, Garifuna Flava serves up Belizean food like rice and beans. “It’s amazing to see how many people from around the world have been here to taste our Garifuna food.” she says.
“Garifuna food, in particular, tells us a Caribbean story and a Central American story,” says López Oro, whose work focuses on later generations of Garifuna immigrants.(移民) “It gives us an opportunity to really think about the generational history of Garifuna migration.”
Though hudutu requires much work, Castillo uses a food processor to speed things up. The more hudutu she’s able to make, the more she’s able to sell—increasing the possibility of introducing the food to a wider, ever-hungry audience.
“I think people are really devoted to making hudutu a household name,” says López Oro, referring to the dish and the urgency many Garinagu feel about protecting their history, in part, through their food’s most famous dish.

（23-24高一下·河北保定·期中）A new course on world heritage and its conservation offers a good opportunity for the young people to learn about the legacy (遗产) of humanity and gain a sense of responsibility to help protect the planet we live on.
According to a world heritage education programme jointly launched by the United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and China’s Ministry of Education, the course will first be offered at several schools in Beijing before being included as a mandatory course (必修课) for high school students nationwide.
The new course covers photos, slide shows and documentaries on the magnificence of the world heritage sites.

（23-24高一下·江西南昌·期中）Of all the Chinese 24 solar terms, Clear and Bright (清明) is the only one whose first day is also a traditional Chinese festival, the Qingming Festival. The words “clear” and “bright” describe the weather during this period. Temperatures begin to rise and rainfall increases, making it an important time for growing crops in the spring. As is known, it is a time to worship (祭拜) ancestors, however, here are several things you may not know about Clear and Bright.Spring Outings
Not only is it a period to honor the dead, but it is also time for people to go out and enjoy nature. As trees turn green, flowers blossom, and the sun shines brightly, everything returns to life. It is a fine time to appreciate the beauty of nature.Flying Kites
Flying kites is an activity favored by many Chinese during Tomb-Sweeping Day. Kites are not only flown during the day time but also in the evening. Little lanterns are tied to the kites. And when the kites are flying in the sky, the lanterns look like twinkling stars at night. What makes flying kites during this day special is that people cut the string while the kite is in the sky to let it fly freely. It is said that this brings good luck and that diseases can be chased away by doing this.Cuju
Cuju is an interesting game played during this period. Ju is a ball made of leather with hairs plugged in it. Legend has it that the Yellow Emperor first invented it for training warriors. Later, Cuju was used by people to build up their bodies when they were unable to eat hot food during the Cold Food Festival.Feasting on Qingtuan
In the lower parts of the Yangtze River region, qingtuan is very popular on Tomb-Sweeping Day. Qingtuan is a kind of round green cake. In order to make the cakes, people mash (捣碎) barnyard grass (艾草) to squeeze juice from it and mix the flour and juice to a paste. Then they put fillings into the paste and steam them. Pretty and delicate, qingtuan has a special flavor.

（23-24高一下·新疆乌鲁木齐·期中）Lion dance is a valued tradition deeply rooted in South China’s Guangdong province and among Chinese communities in Southeast Asian countries. Historically, this art form was only practiced by men. However, a unique team consisting entirely of teenage girls stands out among all the male groups — they are the Nanxing Hexingtang Women’s Lion Dance Team from the town of Ren he in Guangzhou.
Nearly every village in Guangzhou has its own lion dance team. Yet as of 2018, Hexingtang had only male participants. As there was a decline in the number of young people practicing lion dance, it accepted a few young girls. The journey was far from smooth for the girls. They were once hired to perform for a family on the first day of Chinese New Year. When the family realized that it was the girls who would be performing, they erupted in anger and chased them away. Then Hexingtang decided to formally establish a women’s team to make the female lion dance leagal. They customized flags and banners printed with “women’s team”, crafted pink and purple lion heads, which are rarely seen in male lion dance, and even fashioned a lion head looking like the image of the female general Mu Guiying, a famous figure in Yue Opera.
It was hoped that after the girls won awards and proved themselves, they might be accepted by more people. Their breakthrough came in 2021 when the girls beat all-male teams and won the first prize in a competition in Guangzhou’s Baiyun district. The following year, at the 16th Guangdong Provincial Games, the girls once again got the top prize in the junior group, representing Guangzhou. Since then, they have continued to win awards. In the recent Maofeng Mountain competition just before Spring Festival in Guangzhou, the team performed a routine titled “Tramping Over Mountains and Hills Step by Step”, which mirrors the growth journey of these girls themselves as they navigate through numerous challenges. Behind this near-perfect performance is
girls’ dedication and hard work.
Lion dance is not easy, especially for girls, as it demands significant strength and mastery of martial arts movements. However, girls possess unique advantages and can cultivate a distinctive style. Girls typically have a keen understanding of music, performing perfectly in both lion and instrument roles. Furthermore, their superior physical flexibility allows them to complete difficult moves. Most importantly, their sensitivity enables them to capture the expressions and behaviors of lions.

The restaurant, which only serves Guangdong Shunde cuisine, allows robots to cook, deliver food, place orders for diners and handle most of the work in the restaurant.
“The robot chefs can actually compete with famous chefs from Shunde, which is known for its delicious dishes at home and abroad,” said a diner surnamed Chen. Chen and his friends praised the delicious food cooked

（23-24高一下·贵州六盘水·期中）Tea is currently the world’s most popular drink, only after water.
However, there was a time when tea was known only to the Chinese. So, how did tea originate in China And how did it get to conquer the world to the extent that people often describe something they really like as their “cup of tea”
While we know that tea drink started in China, its true origin remains something unknown. Legend has it that about 5, 000 years ago, Shennong came across tea when dried leaves blew into a pot of boiling water. Following his discovery, tea was used as medicine, included in meals and later offered as a refreshing drink to officials and noblemen. Eventually, it became a common drink enjoyed by all Chinese people.
The love of tea inspired many people to write about it. Over the years, tea drinking became an important part of China’s rich culture. The great poet Du Fu described his tea-drinking experience in poetic language. Lu Yu, a tea master, wrote The Classic of Tea, which remains the earliest and most famous detailed study on tea in the world.
It is then not surprising that the beauty of tea was eventually spread to a wider world. Tang and Song Dynasties needed strong Tibetan horses, so the Tea Horse Road was born. Porters (脚夫) carrying back-breaking loads of tea bricks made their way through dangerous snow-covered mountain passes, to trade Sichuan and Yunnan tea for horses. Over time, the gift of tea was further delivered to Western Asia and Easten Africa. As early as the Tang Dynasty, Saicho, a Japanese monk came to study in China and took tea seeds and tea-making customs to Japan. Around the 1600s, tea was shipped to Europe from China by Portuguese and Dutch sea traders.
35．What was tea first used as in China
A．Medicine. B．Drink. C．Food. D．Goods.
36．Who wrote the earliest detailed study on tea
A．Shennong. B．Saicho. C．Du Fu. D．Lu Yu.
37．How was tea spread to Europe
A．Taken by monks. B．Carried by porters.
C．Shipped by traders. D．Delivered by horses.
38．What is the purpose of the text
A．To study the customs of tea. B．To introduce the history of tea.
C．To show the importance of tea. D．To describe different uses of tea.

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了一家食品初创公司在不伤害奶牛或地球的情况下生产出了真正的乳制品，并介绍了这种乳制品的特点，生产过程和公司未来的发展方向。
1．词句猜测题。划线词前文“As people are becoming more socially conscious about where their food comes from and how it impacts the planet, they are choosing animal-free plant-based options. (随着人们对食物的来源及其对地球的影响越来越有社会意识，他们正在选择非动物的植物性食品。)”说明非动物的植物性食品越来越受到人们欢迎，从而推知划线词句“Cow-free meat has been around for quite some time and the popularity of the cultivated(培育的) meat from Aleph Farms and others are soaring.(无牛(非动物的)肉已经存在了很长一段时间，Aleph农场和其他农场的养殖肉的受欢迎程度正在soaring。)”其中划线部分意思是“增加，增长”。故选D项。
2．推理判断题。根据第二段中“‘Remilk was founded with the mission to stop using animals to produce our food because, as dairy lovers, we realize that giving up on milk is not an option,’ said Aviv Wolff, CEO of Remilk.’ But today’s milk comes with an unreasonable price tag. The dairy industry is destructive to our planet, our health, and our animals, and is simply not sustainable anymore.’(首席执行官Aviv Wolff说：‘Remilk成立的使命是停止使用动物来生产我们的食物，因为作为乳制品爱好者，我们意识到放弃牛奶是不可能的。但现在牛奶的标价不合理。乳制品行业对我们的星球、我们的健康和我们的动物都是毁灭性的，而且再也不能持续下去了。’)”可知，Wolff对于Remilk的做法是支持和赞成的。故选A项。
3．推理判断题。根据最后一段“The environmental price tag of dairy farming is way too high. According to the World Wildlife Fund, dairy cows add a huge amount of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere and contribute to global warming and climate change as well as foul the air around them. Dairy operations consume large amounts of water and run-off of manure(粪肥) and fertilizers from these farms get into local waterways. The production of Remilk uses only 5percent of the resources and produces only 1 percent of the waste of producing cow’s milk according to the company. And they accomplish this by being 100 percent cruelty-free unlike dairy farms. (乳品养殖场的环境成本太高了。根据世界野生动物基金会的说法，奶牛向大气中增加了大量的温室气体，导致全球变暖和气候变化，还污染了它们周围的空气。乳制品生产消耗大量的水，这些农场的粪便和肥料流入当地水道。据该公司称，Remilk的生产只使用了5%的资源，产
生的废物也只有传统奶牛生产的1%。他们实现这一点的方式是100%不像乳品养殖场那样残酷。)”可知，作者比较了现在奶牛场生产的和Remilk生产所耗用的资源，以及造成的废物等，所以可推断是用了对比的方法。故选C项。
4．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其根据第一段中“Now, an Israeli food-tech startup Remilk created real dairy products without harming a single co w or the planet.(现在，以色列一家食品科技初创公司Remilk制造出了真正不伤害一头奶牛或地球的乳制品。)”可知，文章主要讲述了一家食品初创公司在不伤害奶牛或地球的情况下生产出了真正的乳制品，并介绍了这种乳制品的特点，生产过程和公司未来的发展方向。D“不用奶牛生产牛奶”符合文章大意，适合做标题，故选D项。

(杰西·拉弗拉姆是皮特和格里有机鸡蛋公司的首席执行官。她说，鸡的品种决定了母鸡是否有色素基因，这是一种天然的化学物质，会导致母鸡的蛋壳呈彩色)”可知，母鸡的品种决定了蛋壳的颜色。故选A。

7．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Hickman notes that the Leghorn breed is a popular choice for farmers because it lays more eggs. Hens that produce colored eggshells, however, usually are larger and require more feed and energy to create that painted shells. Since those breeds cost more to feed, their eggs are more expensive. (希克曼指出，Leghorn品种是农民的热门选择，因为它能下更多的蛋。然而，产彩色蛋壳的母鸡通常更大，需要更多的饲料和能量来生产彩色蛋壳。由于这些品种的饲料成本更高，它们的鸡蛋也更贵)”可知，Leghorn鸡通常更大，需要更多的饲料和能量，所以成本更高，鸡蛋也更贵。故选B。
8．推理判断题。 根据最后一段“ “But it’s important for people to know that the color of the
eggshell is related to the breed of the hen, not the egg’s nutrition, quality or shell thickness.” What does affect the nutrition is the specific food the hen eats, according to Malkani.(“但重要的是，人们要知道蛋壳的颜色与母鸡的品种有关，而不是鸡蛋的营养、质量或蛋壳厚度。”根据Malkani的说法，影响母鸡营养的是母鸡吃的特定食物)”可推知，Malkani试图解释是什么决定鸡蛋的营养。故选C。

12．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Though hudutu requires much work, Castillo uses a food
processor to speed things up.
