二、阅读理解
The Government’s sugar tax on soft drinks has brought in half as much money as Ministers first predicted it would generate, the first official data on the policy has shown.
First announced in April, 2016, the tax which applies to soft drinks containing more than 5g of sugar per 100ml, was introduced to help reduce childhood obesity(肥胖). It is believed that today’s children and teenagers are consuming three times the recommended level of sugar, putting them at a higher risk of the disease.
Initially the sugar tax was expected to make 520m a year for the Treasury. However, data of the first six months showed it would make less than half this amount. At present it is expected to generate 240m for the year ending in April 2019, which will go to school sports.
It comes after more than half of soft drinks sold in shops have had their sugar levels cut by manufacturers(制造商) so they can avoid paying the tax. Drinks now contain 45 million fewer kilos of sugar as a result of manufacturers’ efforts to avoid the charge, according to Treasury figures. Since April drinks companies have been forced to pay between 18p and 24p for every litre of sugary drink they produce or import, depending on the sugar content.
However, some high sugar brands, like Classic Coca Cola, have accepted the sugar tax and are refusing to change for fear of upsetting consumers. Fruit juices, milk-based drinks and most alcoholic drinks are free of the tax, as are small companies manufacturing fewer than 1m litres per year.
Today’s figures, according to one government official, show the positive influence the sugar tax is having by raising millions of pounds for sports facilities(设施) and healthier eating in schools. Helping the next generation to have a healthy and active childhood is of great importance, and the industry is playing its part.
11.Why was the sugar tax introduced
A.To protect children’s health. B.To improve the quality of drinks.
C.To collect money for schools. D.To encourage research in education.
12.How did some drinks companies respond to the sugar tax
A.They turned to overseas markets.
B.They raised the prices of their products.
C.They cut down on their production.
D.They reduced their products’ sugar content.
13.From which of the following is the sugar tax collected
A.Classic Coke. B. Milk-based drinks.
C. Fruit juices. D. Most alcoholic drinks.
14.What can be inferred about the adoption of the sugar tax policy
A.It is a short-sighted decision. B. It is a success story.
C. It benefits manufacturers. D. It upsets customers.

In 1885, a young doctor named Conan Doyle opened offices in London. He wanted to be a successful doctor, but for some reasons he never found enough patients. To pass the time, he began to write stories and send them to the newspapers.
Conan Doyle's stories were about a clever detective, Sherlock Holmes. Conan Doyle wrote that Sherlock Holmes lived in Baker Street in London, and people with problems came to him for help. Even police detectives came to Sherlock Holmes with their problems, too. He was able to solve mysteries that the cleverest policemen in England were unable to figure out. Sometimes Sherlock Holmes could solve a mystery without leaving his chair. He listened carefully to the information his client (委托人) gave and figured out the answer. At other times he spent days or weeks looking for clues. Sherlock Holmes traveled to different cities and countries to solve the mysteries. Sometimes he wore disguises, pretending to be an old man, or a sailor. Holmes did anything to find out the answer to the mysteries he was working on. His best friend Dr. Watson kept him company (陪伴) on most of his adventures.
Sherlock Holmes is the most famous detective in English literature, but many people don't understand that he is a fictional character, not a real person. The English post offices report that people still send mail to Sherlock Holmes in Baker Street. Even he gets more than 2,000 letters every year.

②细节句。根据上一句可知,买食品杂货不一定要在周日或周一,结合选项可知C项解释了不能选择这两天的原因,承接上文,符合语境。C项中the two days指代的是上文的Sunday or Monday。故选C。
③主旨句。根据下一句可知,要检查一下冰箱里有什么,把它们作为首先要处理的东西,防止它们变质。此处强调的是先处理冰箱中易变质的物品,这样可以避免浪费。所以B项引起下文,符合本段主旨。故选B。
④细节句。本段主旨句表示要充分利用金钱。根据设空处上一句可知,要购买可以在很多餐中使用的食材。由此可知此处强调的是要在购买食材过程中省钱。E项承接上文,解释了购买可以在很多餐中使用的食材的好处,E项中的This指代的就是上文的“购买可以在很多餐中使用的食材”这件事。故选E。
⑤细节句。根据上文可知,此处说明通过和其他人共同准备食材,一起做饭,让生活更轻松。结合选项可知,F项承接上文,强调最终的结果是可以轻松地享受美食,符合语境。故选F。
