The Best Noodles in China
Let's try different noodles and find out what makes these noodles so special.
Zhenjiang's pot cover noodle
Origin:Zhenjiang, Jiangsu
Price:15 RMB
Pot cover noodle is Zhenjiang's special food. When the noodle is being boiled, a wooden lid is put on the boiling water. That's why it is named “Wok Lid Noodle”. The special noodle used for this dish is called “Jumpy Noodle”, which has tiny holes that absorb the flavors quickly and offer a chewy texture (口感).
Shanxi's sliced noodle
Origin:Taiyuan, Shanxi
Price:15~25 RMB
Sliced noodle originated in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province in the 12th century, and has long enjoyed the title of “King of Noodle”. The noodle is peeled (削) with a knife, so it is called “Knife Peeled Noodle”. Smooth and chewy, soft yet never sticky, the noodle possesses a unique texture. It is served with tomato and meat sauce. Mutton soup is the most popular.
Lanzhou's hand pulled noodle
Origin:Lanzhou, Gansu
Price:Under 15 RMB

Price:18~25 RMB

Kenny Lake School in Alaska is small, with about 60 students from kindergarten to high school seniors. Jennifer Hodges, a teacher, said, “My students sit only at desks for 20 minutes a day. They do a lot of practical learning, such as raising salmon (鲑鱼) from egg to fry (鱼苗) in the classroom and then releasing them into lakes.”
It is through a program called Salmon in the Classroom. Kate Morse, program director for the project, is in charge of the program. With this project, students have a completely different attitude because they know what it takes to actually go through the stages of a salmon.
They think learning about the habitat temperature and the effects of climate change is more crucial now than ever. In 2022, the Arctic had its sixth warmest year on record. But this is unusual in raising salmon, which require cold water to survive. “We had a failure in our equipment and it brought the temperature up about five degrees,” said Hodges. “Just warming it that much just killed our eggs.”
They can also observe how deadly pollutants can be to salmon's habitat. During the months when the salmon are in the classroom, students like to sit by the tank to observe. “For instance, putting hand sanitizer (消毒剂) on your hands and then putting your fingers in the tank, you've polluted the tank,” said Hodges.
Each year in May, she takes her students on the Salmon Field Trip, where they will name the fish and get to release the salmon they've raised in class.
“The best part is getting to release them after watching them hatch from eggs and grow into fry and taking care of them,” said Fisher, a student. “You get to say goodbye.”
“I went to release them last year and the lake was still covered with ice,” said Styrling, a student. “I fell in. It was cold, but it was still funny.”
4.What do we know about the students in Kenny Lake School
A.They raise salmon for their eggs.
B.They always sit at desks all day.
C.They can receive hands on education.
D.They can combine learning with hobbies.
5.Why is the program mentioned in paragraph 2
A.To stress the role the program has played.
B.To introduce the founder of the program.
C.To explain ways that students raise salmon.
D.To emphasize Kate Morse's responsibility.
6.Which statement is supported by Hodges
A.Climate change has a minimal impact on salmon habitats.
B.Salmon eggs are sensitive to the rise of water temperature.
C.Their equipment failure caused a decrease in water temperature.
D.Students observe the tank to learn about pollution caused by salmon.
7.What is the students' attitude to raising salmon
A.Positive. B.Doubtful.
C.Neutral. D.Indifferent.

Mars is an empty planet, but that could change.Someday, it might have farms where fruit and vegetables could grow.
Growing food on Mars has always seemed hard. But scientists think they have found a way to do it. They put sheets of material on the ground. The sheets could change the cold, dry planet into land for farming.
Robin Wordsworth worked on the sheets at Harvard University in Massachusetts. He said the sheets could let people live on another planet. On Mars the conditions are not good, though. Most importantly, the planet is cold and dry. The soil might have poisonous parts, and the air does not have much nitrogen that plants need to grow.
The sheets do not solve all the problems. Still, they could help to create a place for plants. The plants would grow only under the sheets. So there is less worry about harming the rest of Mars. The sheets would block the plants.
The scientists worked with sheets about an inch thick. Those allowed light through for plants. They also warmed the ground and trapped enough heat to melt ice on Mars. Placing the sheets over icy parts of Mars could let plants survive there. Their study was printed in Nature Astronomy. The sheets could be on the ground to grow water plants and they also could be hung. That would give room to plants to grow on land below them.Wordsworth said, “You can imagine this being used in a number of ways. It could be used for visitors to Mars. Later it could be for people who live there.However, it's a pity that the sheets are in the lab.”
8.Which is the most important to prevent Mars from farming
A.It's cold and dry. B.It has poor soil.
C.Its air is poisonous. D.It owns rich nitrogen.
9.What do we know about the sheets from paragraph 5
A.Each of them is more than one inch thick.
B.They can create light for plants.
C.They can melt ice to keep plants alive.
D.They are only fit for plants growing on the ground.
10.According to Wordsworth, the sheets ________.
A.will be sent to Mars soon
B.are still under experiment
C.can grow foods for him to eat
D.are popular among visitors to Mars
11.What would be the best title for the text
A.Do plants exist on Mars
B.How do astronauts live on Mars
C.Farming on Mars is becoming a reality
D.Ways of growing plants on Earth
D
There is more of a connection between food and culture than you may think. On an individual level, we grow up eating the food of our culture. It becomes a part of who we are. Many associate food from our childhood with warm feelings and good memories and it ties us to our families, holding a special and personal value for us. Food from our family often becomes the comfort food we seek as adults in times of frustration and stress.
On a large scale, traditional food is an important part of culture. It also operates as an expression of culture identity. Immigrants bring it wherever they go, and it is a symbol of pride for their culture and means of coping with homesickness.
Many immigrants open their own restaurants and serve traditional dishes. However, the food does not remain exactly the same. Some materials needed to make traditional dishes may not be readily available, so the taste and flavor can be different from what they would prepare in their home countries. Additionally, immigrants do not only sell dishes to people from the same countries as them, but to people from different countries. Therefore, they have to make small changes about the original dishes to cater to a wider range of customers. Those changes can create new flavors that still keep the cultural significance of the dishes.
We should not only embrace our heritage (传统) through our culture's food but also become more informed about other cultures by trying their food. It is important to remember that each dish has a special place in the culture to which it belongs, and is special to those who prepare it. Food is a window into culture, and it should be treated as such.
12.What's the function of food mentioned in the text
A.To help motivate homesickness.
B.To show national identity.
C.To reflect a country's history.
D.To show a community's superiority.
13.What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to
A.The specific traditional food.
B.The national culture.
C.A traditional expression of food.
D.The old fashioned taste.
14.Why do some immigrants have to change the original dishes in their restaurants
A.To attach cultural importance to their dishes.
B.To announce the beginning of their life on foreign soil.
C.To make the dishes popular among customers.
D.To present their own food culture in a new way.
15.What's the author's attitude towards different food cultures
A.Negative. B.Balanced.
C.Unfair. D.Unchangeable.

Rex watched the dust cloud around his bare feet as he walked up the path from the river in the summer sunshine. As he came within view of the farmhouse, he saw his mother working in the vegetable garden. She was a hard worker, but when she had a moment to spare, she spent it on her little flower garden in the front yard.
Suddenly, something in the front yard caught Rex's attention. His mother jumped up from the vegetable patch (小块土地) and ran toward her flowers. “Scat! Get out of here, you old turkeys!” There, in her flower garden, a flock of turkeys ruined the flowers. Rex ran to help his mother, shooing (赶走) them back to Mr Blake's farm.
“Go back home!” Rex's mother shouted, her face red. The turkeys waddled single file (一路纵队摇摆行走), ruining every plant in their path. “Rex, chase those turkeys back to where they belong. Then we will prepare dinner for you and your father.” She sadly looked at the ruined flowers.
Rex quickly drove the turkeys back down the road, yelling. As the turkeys entered Mr Blake's yard, Rex grabbed a rock lying on the ground and threw the rock with all his strength to give them a good scare. As a result, Rex found he killed the largest of Mr Blake's turkeys.
What was he going to do Mr Blake would be very angry. He felt frightened the moment he thought of Mr Blake's angry face. Looking around, he realized no one had seen him throw the rock. He did not have the courage to face Mr Blake. Without another thought, Rex grabbed the dead turkey and hid it in the bushes. He turned and ran home as fast as he could, hoping that no one saw the truth.
His mother praised him for his quick work with the turkeys, not noticing the worry in Rex's heart. As the worry welled inside him, tears filled his eyes.
“What's wrong?” his mother asked.
He ran to her arms, sobbing as he told the whole story, complete with his fear of Mr Blake's anger.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式作答。
Finally, as his sobs quieted, his mother
“Hi, Mr Blake,” Rex handed him the dead bird.

第一节(参考范文)
Yesterday, I participated in the annual Foodie Carnival launched by our school to enrich our campus life and improve our general competence.
There were numerous activities related to tasty foods around the globe, varying from cooking dishes by ourselves to listening to a lecture on a healthy diet. What impressed us most was the cuisine cooked by each class, many being both nutritious and delicate. Furthermore, a professor from Zhejiang University delivered a lecture, from which we acquired much knowledge about eating healthily.
This carnival turned out to be a great hit. Consequently, I highly recommend you to engage in it next year!
第二节(参考范文)
Finally, as his sobs quieted, his mother pulled back to look at him, “Rex, take the bird to Mr Blake and tell him what happened. You will never have peace if you don't face him. Mr Blake deserves to hear the truth.” The walk to Mr Blake's house was difficult. Leaving his mother in the yard, Rex stepped to the front door with the dead turkey. He knocked, hoping Mr Blake wouldn't answer. But the door opened.
“Hi, Mr Blake,” Rex handed him the dead bird. When he finished telling the whole story of how he killed the turkey by mistake, Rex looked at the ground, too frightened to watch the reaction. There was a moment's pause, and then Mr Blake said, “That's all right. We'll eat it for dinner today.” A smile pulled at the corner of his mouth. Rex couldn't believe what he had heard. As he ran home, he felt as if a rock had been lifted from his shoulders. He realized that doing the right thing was truly easy in the end.
