Food festivals are a common occurrence in the UK and take place in all sorts of places and at all sorts of times. Whatever your taste, there’s a food festival to match-no matter how specialized.
1. Meatopia
This three-day, London-based festival takes place at the end of August and is a meat lover’s paradise. In addition to a range of legally sourced meat products, from juicy burgers to tender steaks, attendees can listen to live music, watch butchery demonstrations, and attend informal meat-based workshops.
2. The National Honey Show
If you have a sweet tooth, then it could be that the National Honey Show, which started in 1921 and is the largest event of its kind, is the place for you to be. This three-day event attracts many local entries who showcase their sweet golden honey, some of which is sold globally.
3. The Orange Sauce Festival
Have you heard about a festival that is devoted only to orange sauce Held in Cumbria, this sweet, fragrant festival has been running for 3 years. What attracts people most is a competition to find the best homemade orange sauce. There are thousands of participants from over 30 different countries across the globe, bringing their local snacks to share here.
4. The Ginger and Spice Festival
If you’d prefer something with a little more kick to it, then you could attend The Ginger (姜) and Spice Festival held in Market Drayton. Unlike other food festivals, it celebrates its town’s historic connection to Robert Clive, who returned from India with ginger. Because of this, they specialize in baking gingerbread, but also sell a range of traditional spices from mild to hot.

The 67-year-old Shandong Province native, Ge Yuxiu, has lived in Qinghai Province for 51 years. For almost half that time, he has been on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, where he has devoted his life to photographing and protecting wild animals.
Despite serious heart trouble, Ge is determined to stay on the high-altitude Plateau and continue to do something to help protect wildlife in the area.
Ge’s enthusiasm for photography grew after his photo of soldiers reading news written on a blackboard was published in Qinghai Daily in 1979. He probably would never have turned to photographing wild animals without a visit to Bird Island in Qinghai Lake in 1995, after he had retired from the army and had begun working in the financial sector.
Covering less than half a square kilometer, the island is home to over 100,000 migratory birds. “I became addicted to the bird kingdom,” Ge said, adding that he has so far visited the island more than 200 times to take photos.
He never expected that his attraction to the island would tie his destiny with Przewalski’s gazelle (普氏原羚), a relatively small, slender antelope endemic to China. Ge went to the island in late 1997 to take photos of swans when he saw seven yellowish-brown animals running across the grass-lands, in a line. On hearing one of his companions shouting “Przewalski’s gazelle”, he took out his camera and took photos of them. He was later told by wildlife conservation experts that he had captured the world’s first image of this kind of antelope.
“I was so excited to hear that,” he said. His excitement, however, soon gave way to anxiety after he learned about the animal’s endangered status. Only found around Qinghai Lake, there were just 300 of them surviving in the wild at the time. The incident became a turning point in Ge’s photography career, as he decided to devote his efforts to saving the gazelle and other endangered animals. He often spent time in the wild observing the gazelle and occasionally visited local herdsmen to learn what they knew about the animal.
Thanks to joint efforts, the population of Przewalski’s gazelle has now increased to about 2,700.
24. What are Ge’s photos mainly about
A. Rare plants. B. Wild animals.
C. Beautiful scenery. D. Extreme weather.
25. Ge became more enthusiastic about photography after ________.
A. he arrived at the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
B. he visited Bird Island in Qinghai Lake
C. one of his photos was published in Qinghai Daily
D. he learned about the wild animals’ endangered status
26. Which of the following words can best describe Ge
A. Honest and silent. B. Calm and generous.
C. Persistent and responsible. D. Outspoken and positive.
27. What can be the best title for the text
A. A photography lover B. A brave soldier
C. A devoted researcher D. A wildlife guardian
C
Passenger pigeons (旅鸽) once flew over much of the United States in unbelievable numbers. Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks (群) so large that they darkened the sky for hours
It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point, there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons—a number equal to 24 to 40 percent of the total bird population in the United States, making it perhaps the most abundant bird in the world. Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller, a flock believed to be I mile wide and 320 miles (about 515 kilometers) long was seen near Cincinnati.
Sadly the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing. Where the birds were most abundant, people believed there was an ever-lasting supply and killed them by the thousands.
Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain, waited until pigeons had settled to feed, then threw large nets over them, taking hundreds at a time. The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.
By the closing decades of the 19th century, the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by American’s need for wood, which scattered (驱散) the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north, where cold temperatures and spring storms contributed to their decline. Soon the great flocks were gone, never to be seen again.
In 1897, the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons but by then, no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years. The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County, Ohio, in 1900. For a time, a few birds survived under human care. The last of them, known affectionately as Martha, died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1, 1914.
28. In the 18th and early 19th centuries, passenger pigeons ________.
A. were the biggest bird in the world
B. lived mainly in the south of America
C. did great harm to the natural environment
D. were the largest bird population in the US
29. The underlined word “undoing” probably refers to the pigeons’ ________.
A. escape B. ruin C. liberation D. evolution
30. What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons
A. To seek pleasure. B. To save other birds.
C. To make money. D. To protect crops.
31. What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan
A. It was ignored by the public. B. It was declared too late.
C. It was unfair. D. It was strict.
D
If you spend more than a couple of days in the country of Georgia, you are very likely to be invited to a Georgian feast even by complete strangers. The multi-hour, multi-course feast is one of the most important events in Georgian culture.
A popular Georgian story shows the importance of the feast in Georgian culture. When God created the world. He held a meeting to give the different regions of the world to different cultures. But the Georgians arrived late at the meeting. After they apologized and explained that they’d been holding a feast with a stranger the night before and slept later than they’d meant to. God was so touched and impressed by their honesty that He gave the Georgians the best land of all: the part of earth He was saving for himself.
In order to survive the feasts without offending (冒犯) the hosts, it’s important for you to know a few things about it in advance.
A Georgian feast will likely have a seemingly unlimited number of dishes. So avoid fully cleaning your plate unless you want more servings. Don’t fill up on khachapuri-Georgian cheese bread. There are numerous regional varieties of cheese bread, but khachapuri is the most delicious of all. The cheese bread is usually a heavy lunch on its own, but at feasts it’s often considered a side dish or an appetite. Don’t make the mistake of having more than a few bites—only to discover that the main meal is still coming.
When you drink, follow the lead of the toastmaster, who presents a series of toasts throughout the evening. Traditionally, drinkers would dry their glass (or, if keeping with tradition, drain their deer’s horn) with every toast. This isn’t always done now. Just remember the important rule: say “cheers” after every toast.
Consider bringing a small gift, such as sweets or flowers, as a gesture of thanks. Avoid bringing more fond, however, which might imply that you don’t think there will be enough on offer.
32. What can be most probably inferred from the story
A. Georgia is short of natural resources.
B. Most of the Georgians are lazy and wasteful.
C. The Georgian people are very honest and friendly.
D. It is important to go to a meeting on time in Georgia.
33. What can we know about khachapuri
A. It is not a main dish at feasts at all.
B. Georgians usually have it for breakfast.
C. It is one of the unique Georgian drinks.
D. Many regional varieties are based on it.
34. What is the author most likely to suggest visitors do
A. Drink all the wine every time. B. Take some small gifts with them.
C. Clean the plate after each serving. D. Bring some special food to the feast.
35. What is the best title for the text
A. Amazing Food History in Georgia
B. Basic Rules of Being a Good Host
C. Bad Manners to Be Avoided at the Table
D. Things to Be Learned About Georgian Feasts

While people don’t always like the old saying “the early bird gets the worm”, getting up early is actually the secret to the success of many people. 36 There are also other benefits of waking up early in the morning.
● Improve your cognitive (认知的) function. People who get up early in the morning can concentrate better, are more attentive, and stay energetic throughout the day. Since people’s brains are more active in the morning, focusing on important tasks earlier will allow you to make better decisions than people who work later. Morning people have better problem-solving skills. 37
● Help you sleep better. Waking up early makes going to bed early easier and helps you get consistent sleep and wake times. 38 Getting enough sleep may lower your blood pressure and improve brain function. However, people who tend to be night owls are more likely to feel tired and develop sleep disorders.
● Give you more time to eat breakfast. 39 After all, food is the fuel people need to feel energetic and ready to face the world. Just grabbing coffee and bread at the drive-through will not give you what you need. Enjoy a nutritious breakfast of Greek yogurt and fruit to start your day off right.
● 40 Are you too tired or too busy to work out at the end of the day Try going to the gym or for a run first thing in the morning. A morning workout can change your mood, lower stress, reduce anxiety, and increase your energy levels.
A. Give yourself more time to get relaxed.
B. Get you to do exercise early in the morning.
C. And thus this can lead to a better quality of sleep.
D. Setting your alarm clock early will give you extra time.
E. Nothing starts a day better than eating a healthy breakfast.
F. That’s because they can do more while the world is still sleeping.
G. So they can get better grades in school and obtain higher paying jobs.

It is hard to give a precise definition of Western art, as there 56 (be) so many different style s of Western art over the centuries. Perhaps 57 (take) a look at the development of Western painting over the centuries is a best way to understand Western art.
In the Middle Ages, the purpose of Western art was 58 (teach) people about Christianity. Thus, artists focused 59 (much) on religion than on realistic scenes.
However, their attention began to shift from religious themes to nature in the 13th century. Then came the period of the Renaissance, 60 artists began to pay less attention to religious themes. They took a more humanistic attitude 61 life. Influential painters such as Da Vinci, and Michelangelo used oil in their works. This technique reached its 62 (high) with Rembrandt, 63 master of shadow and light.
There followed Impressionism and some famous artists also emerged in this period. During this period, artists sought to show not just the outer image but 64 (they) inner warmth and humanity as well.
In modem times, subsequent artists begin to ask what art is and understand art 65 (unique). Some gave their paintings a realistic but dream-like quality while others turned to abstract art. Maybe no one can answer the question.

第二节：读后续写（满分25分）
阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写, 使之构成一个完整的故事。
As we get older there are certain gifts standing out in our memories for a variety of reasons.
One gift I was given and treasured most was a doll named Patsy. She wasn’t originally mine but was my younger sister’s Christmas gift, but on holding Patsy I immediately fell in love with her and couldn’t bear to part with her. Luckily, my sister was quite happy to exchange dolls. From then on Patsy was my baby and I continued to love her dearly and would have died for her.
Another gift I offered my Mom has been shining in my mind. On a Saturday, I was on my way to the local cinema when I happened to glimpse (一瞥) at the window of the gift shop at the comer of our street. There were lovely gloves, pretty flowered handkerchiefs, and rose patterned teacups and saucers, all in pretty boxes. Seeing all these lovely gifts reminded me that it would soon be Mother’s Day and my mother’s birthday. Wouldn’t it be nice, I thought, if I could give my mother something really special, something I’d bought myself So I stepped inside the shop and admired a dressing table set, which was a green cut glass with ornamental tray (装饰托盘) and several matching pieces. I was sure my mother would love it.
The lady must have seen my disappointment when she told me the price. But she had a suggestion which immediately lifted my spirits. She pulled out a large notebook and wrote my name in it and the gift I wanted to buy, and in return I paid her a penny from my pocket money. It meant no sweets that day but I didn’t care. At the age of nine, I’d made my very first lay-by (分期付款)… and felt like a grown up. From then on, every Saturday I dropped in at the shop on schedule and paid a penny, which the lady dutifully recorded in her notebook.

A篇
解析：21.细节理解题。根据Meatopia中"This three-day, London-based festival takes place at the end of August...(这个在伦敦举行的为期三天的节日在八月底举行……)"和The National Honey show中"This three-day event attracts many local entries... (这个为期三天的活动吸引了许多本地参赛者……) "可知，Meatopia和the National Honey Show共同之处在于，这两个美食节的时长都是三天。故选A。
22.细节理解题。根据The Orange Sauce Festival中"There are thousands of participants from over 30 different countries across the globe, bringing their local snacks to share here. (来自全球30多个国家的数千名参与者带着他们的当地小吃在这里分享) "可知，因为有来自全球30多个国家的数千名参与者带着他们的当地小吃在这里分享，所以如果对外国食物感兴趣，可以去The Orange Sauce Festival，故选D。
23.细节理解题。根据最后一段"Unlike other food festivals, it celebrate its town’s historic connection to Robert Clive, who returned from India with ginger (与其他美食节不同的是，它庆祝的是该镇与罗伯特克莱夫的历史渊源，克莱夫从印度带着姜回来)"可知，因为和历史人物有关系，所以the Ginger and Spice美食节很特别。故选A。
B篇
24.细节理解题。根据文章第一段中"For almost half that time, he has been on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, where he has devoted his life to photographing and protecting wild animals.(近一半的时间，他都在青藏高原，在那里他奉献了自己的一生，拍摄和保护野生动物。)"可知，葛的照片主要是关于野生动物。故选B。
25.细节理解题。据第三段中"Ge’s enthusiasm for photography grew after his photo of soldiers reading news written on a blackboard was published in Qinghai Daily in1979.( 1979年，他拍摄的士兵读黑板上的新闻的照片被刊登在《青海日报》上，此后，他对摄影的热情开始高涨。)"知，1979年，他拍摄的战士读黑板报的照片在《青海日报》上发表后，他对摄影的热情与日俱增。故选C。
26.推理判断题。根据文章第一段中"For almost half that time, he has been on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, where he has devoted his life to photographing and protecting wild animals.(近一半的时间，他都在青藏高原，在那里他奉献了自己的一生，拍摄和保护野生动物。)"以及第六段中的"His excitement,…as he decided to devote his efforts to saving the gazelle and other endangered animals. He often spent time…to learn what they knew about the animal.(然而，当他得知这只动物濒临灭绝时，他的兴奋很快就被焦虑所取代。仅在青海湖附近发现，当时只有300只在野外存活。这一事件成为葛玉修摄影生涯的转折点，他决定致力于拯救瞪羚和其他濒危动物。他经常花时间在野外观察瞪羚，偶尔拜访当地牧民，了解他们对这种动物的了解。)"可知，葛对摄影和保护野生动物的坚持以及对高原生态环保有责任感。故选C。
27.主旨大意题。通读全文知，文章介绍了摄影师葛玉修从爱好摄影到转变成通过摄影积极宣传、呼吁、践行高原濒危动物生态环保的故事。据倒数第二段中"The incident became a turning point in Ge’s photography career, as he decided to devote his efforts to saving the gazelle and other endangered animals. He often spent time in the wild observing the gazelle and occasionally visited local herdsmen to learn what they knew about the animal.(这一事件成为葛玉修摄影生涯的转折点，他决定致力于拯救瞪羚和其他濒危动物。他经常花时间在野外观察瞪羚，偶尔拜访当地牧民，了解他们对这种动物的了解。)"可以看出，葛玉修是一位爱好摄影的高原野生动物环保卫士。故选D。
C篇 体裁:说明文。美国旅鸽的数量曾经多到飞行时能够遮天蔽日，然而由于人类的滥捕滥杀和对它们栖息地的破坏,旅鸽数量不断减少,后来在美国再也不见旅鸽的踪影。
28.D【解析】细节理解题。根据文章第一段第二句可知，18世纪到19世纪的文字记载中曾经描述过成群旅鸽飞行时遮天蔽日的场景。第二段第一句也指出，旅鸽数量最多时达到30多亿，占美国鸟类数量总和的24%至40%，甚至有可能是当时全世界数量最多的鸟类。由此可以推断,当时旅鸽是美国鸟类中数量最多的。 A、B、C 三项在文中均未被提及,故选D项。
29.B【解析】词义猜测题。根据第三段内容可知，当时人们认为旅鸽数量很多,可以源源不断地供应,因此成千上万的旅鸽被捕杀。由此可以推断第三段第一句句意为:不幸的是,可能正是旅鸽巨大的数量导致了它们种群的灭亡。escape 意为“逃跑”;ruin 意为“毁灭”;liberation 意为“解放”; evolution 意为“进化”。故选B项。
30.C【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句可知,旅鸽被运到大城市,接着又被卖到餐馆。由此可以推断,人们捕杀旅鸽主要是为了赚钱。故选C项。
31.B 【解析】推理判断题。根据文章最后一段第一句可知,尽管密歇根州在1897年颁布了禁止猎杀旅鸽的法律，但是那个时候,当地人已经有10年没有见过成群的旅鸽出现了。由此可以推断，这项法律颁布得太迟了。故选B项。
D篇【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要为参加格鲁吉亚宴席的人提供了几个建议。
32．推理判断题。根据文章第一段的“If you spend more than a couple of days in the country of Georgia, you are very likely to be invited to a Georgian feast even by complete strangers.(如果你在格鲁吉亚呆上几天以上，你很可能会被邀请参加格鲁吉亚的宴会，甚至是被完全陌生的人邀请。)”以及第二段“After they apologized and explained that they’d been holding a feast with a stranger the night before and slept later than they’d meant to, God was so touched and impressed by their honesty that He gave the Georgians the best land of all: the part of earth He was saving for himself.(他们向上帝道歉，并解释说，他们前一天晚上和一个陌生人举行了宴会，睡得比预定的时间晚了。上帝被他们的诚实深深打动了，于是他把最好的土地给了格鲁吉亚人：他为自己保留的那部分土地。)”可推断，格鲁吉亚人非常诚实友好。故选C。
33．细节理解题。根据文章第四段“The cheese bread is usually a heavy lunch on its own, but at feasts it’s often considered a side dish or an appetizer. Don’t make the mistake of having more than a few bites—only to discover that the main meal is still coming.( 奶酪面包本身通常是一顿丰盛的午餐，但在宴会上，它通常被认为是配菜或开胃菜。不要犯多吃几口的错误，结果发现正餐还没上来。)”可知，这种面包不是宴席上的主菜。故选A。
34．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Consider bringing a small gift, such as sweets or flowers, as a gesture of thanks.(考虑带一些小礼物，比如糖果或鲜花，作为感谢的表示。)”推知，作者最可能建议游客带一些小礼物。故选B。
35．主旨大意题。通读全文，特别是第三段“In order to survive the feasts without offending (冒犯) the hosts, it’s important for you to know a few things about it in advance.(为了在不冒犯主人的情况下度过宴席，提前了解一些事情是很重要的。)”可知，本文主要是为参加格鲁吉亚宴席的人提供了几个建议。因此D项“关于格鲁吉亚宴会要学的东西”适合作为本文的最佳标题。故选D。

The day before Mother’s Day I paid the last two pence. As the lady wrapped the gift in brown paper and tied it with string, I attentively signed the notebook to say I had completed my lay-by. I thanked her and excitedly left the shop.“ Be careful not to drop it.” she called after me. Securely, the gift tucked under my arm, I skipped the short distance home.
Too excited to wait till Sunday, I excitedly presented the gift to my mother. I placed the parcel on my mother’s lap and I stood by her side, hopping from one foot to the other, as she painstakingly untied every single knot in the string and slowly peeled away the brown paper as if she were unfolding butterfly wings, to reveal the box. My heart was racing. Then, as I bit into my bottom lip, she carefully began to lift the lid. “Do you like it, do you like it ” I asked excitedly, “Yes, I love it so much and I’ll keep it with me.” said my mother. She was delighted, smiling sweetly. The special gift survived many house moves, and it was still sitting on my mother’s dressing table.
