Where Is Area 51？
You’ll find it on a map — but you’ll never get anywhere near this top secret military base.What exactly is going on there？ Is Area 51 a top secret military base that lies in the middle of the barren Nevada desert？ Or could it actually be a facility for examining aliens and their spaceships？ People can’t drive anywhere close to it， the US government rarely acknowledges its existence， and until recently， the airspace overhead was restricted！

On 7 May 2022， a mountain climber from Nepal set a new world record for climbing Mount Everest the most times.Kami Rita， who’s 52， has now climbed Mount Everest 26 times.
Mount Everest is the world’s highest mountain.The mountain is so high that the air is thin.This makes it hard to breathe and remain active.The ice and snow on the mountain， along with cold temperatures and strong winds， make the climb difficult and dangerous.Over 300 people have died trying to climb Mount Everest.
Many of the most talented guides， like Kami Rita and Tenzing Norgay， are from a group of people called Sherpas.The Sherpas live in the Himalayan mountains.They have the knowledge and the skills needed to help foreign climbers become successful in their efforts.

It’s not clear how long Kami Rita will continue to set climbing records.He has said that he could probably continue to climb until he’s sixty.He once said he would retire after climbing Mount Everest 25 times.
Kami Rita says he and his family became guides because they didn’t have money for an education.But he doesn’t want his own children to become climbing guides.He is happy that they can go to school and won’t need to be exposed to the risks and dangers of mountain climbing.

This beautiful， quiet place is covered in sunshine and has mountains all around it.Its name is Machu Picchu.It lies on top of a mountain， 8，000 feet in the tropical forest.Even in the rain and fog， it’s wonderful to walk through the ruins （废墟）.
Machu Picchu is more than 500 years old.According to scholars， Machu Picchu was built for the Inca king around 1450.In the late 1800s， explorers like Antonio crossed the grounds of the ruins without knowing where he was.Machu Picchu became known to the world upon the 1911 arrival of Hiram Bingham.In 1983， Machu Picchu was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Machu Picchu is considered by many to be the most wonderful creation of the Inca Empire.It’s also full of cultural significance.Its various sites and castles are connected with each other and with their environment.This is a great artistic achievement and also masterpiece of architecture.Everything is cultural and is related to each other， including the natural environment in which it is built.
Currently， Machu Picchu is considered one of the Seven Wonders of the New World； this promotes increased tourism in the area.Tourists of all nationalities travel to Peru with the intention of visiting the Lost City of the Incas.Machu Picchu is no longer quiet.
Some people in Peru hope that more tourists will come here.They think it will mean more business and money for the country.However， some worry that more visitors won’t be good for the environment.The truth is that parts of Peru are very poor， and tourists bring money to these communities.The Lost City is no longer lost.The modern world is coming closer to this ancient world every day.

Will you eat everything in your lunch box today？ If not， what will you do with what’s left over？ Save it for another time or throw it in the bin？A new report by the United Nations （UN） estimates （估计） 17 percent of all the food produced around the world gets wasted each year.That means 931 million tons of wasted food！ Most of the waste — 61 percent — happens in households， while food services such as restaurants and cafes make up 26 percent and shops make up 13 percent， the UN found.
“Many countries haven’t yet known how much food they have wasted， so they don’t understand how serious the problem is，” said Clementine O’Connor， from the UN Environment Program and co-author of the report.
Food waste is also bad for the environment.The UN Environment Program estimates that wasted food is responsible for 8－10 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions （排放）.If food waste was a country， it would have the third highest greenhouse gas emissions in the world， after only the US and China.
The report found food waste in homes wasn’t limited to higher income countries such as the US， UK and Australia.Food waste researcher Professor Brian Roe， from Ohio State University in the US， said food was also sometimes wasted in poor countries because they didn’t have refrigerators.
Professor Brian Roe said household and cultural habits could contribute to waste at home， including “buy one， get one free” deals.Meanwhile， “Use by” or “Best by” dates on products could also be causing people to throw away food.People could be throwing out food because they think it is unsafe to eat， when in fact the date only shows when quality might decline.
12.Where does most of food waste happen？
A.At home. B.At cafes.
C.At shops. D.At restaurants.
13.Why does the author compare food waste to a country？
A.To tell us greenhouse gas emissions are very serious.
B.To tell us the US produces the most greenhouse gas.
C.To show food waste is common all over the world.
D.To show food waste does harm to the environment.
14.What did Professor Brian Roe try to tell us in the last paragraph？
A.The harm of food waste.
B.How food waste happens.
C.Why we shouldn’t waste food.
D.The ways to reduce food waste.
15.What would be the best title for the text？
A.Why Do People Waste Food？
B.Where Do People Waste Food？
C.Food Waste Is a Serious Problem
D.Food Waste and the Environment
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
Of all the words in the English language， the word “OK” is pretty new. 16
Although it’s become the most spoken word on the planet， it’s kind of a strange word.Sometimes it’s spelled out — okay — and sometimes just two letters are used：“OK.” 17
The largest dictionary of the English language， the Oxford English Dictionary， is always adding new words.In fact， it added 1，400 new words in June 2019 and will add even more words.
“OK”， whose earliest usage is in 1839， according to the Oxford English Dictionary， generally means things are good or alright.
18
We aren’t entirely sure.But some linguists point to how， in the early 19th century， humorous abbreviations （缩略词） were popular.Young people would write things like “KG”， which stood for “know go”， an intentional misspelling of “no go”， when they meant something was impossible. 19
Likewise， experts think “OK” likely appeared as an abbreviation of “oll korrect” — which was a jokey way of saying “all correct”.Others say that it comes from “Old Kinderhook”， a nickname for former US President Martin Van Buren， or that it comes from Choctaw， a Native American language.
The nice thing about “OK” is that it’s so versatile （多功能的）.It can be used as a noun， a verb， an adjective， a conjunction or an interjection. 20
One last important thing to know： If you like to play word games， it’s alright — and even OK — to use “OK” when playing.Just within the past year， it became an accepted word.
A.What does OK mean？
B.It was a way to play with language.
C.So why did people start to say “OK”？
D.It has only been used for about 180 years.
E.Other times， periods separate the two letters： “O.K.”
F.It’s also competed， over time， with “alright” and “all right”.
G.As a matter of fact， language has been changing as time goes on.

W：How do you do？ It’s a sunny day， isn’t it？
M：Yes， it is， and it’s too hot.Is the weather different from that of your
city？
W：No， it’s the same in New York in summer.
M：Really？ Is it very hot and very dry in New York like here？
W：No.In New York， it is very hot and humid.How long will the hot
days last here？
M：A couple of weeks.But the weatherman says it’s going to rain the day
after tomorrow.
W：That will be nice.
M：But it doesn’t matter even if it is hot， because most tall buildings are
air-conditioned in Beijing now.In fact， many people go to visit the Great
Wall although it’s hot here.
W：I look forward to visiting it as well.
（Text 2）
M：How was your trip back to your hometown？
W：Great， except for the flights.On the way there， I stopped in Munich
and had to wait six hours for my flight.On the way back I stopped in Zurich
and waited for hours.
M：That doesn’t make sense.It shouldn’t take that long to get to Lisbon
from Beijing.
W：You’re right， but that is the cheapest flight I could get.I bought these
tickets three months ago.
M：That’s too early！My brother says you should always buy your ticket
40 to 50 days before your flight leaves.
W：That might work normally， but not around our National Day.If you
book too late， your ticket will be much more expensive.
M：So what did you do while you were there？
W：First，I visited some of my old relatives in the small villages， and
we exchanged gifts.Then I spent several days in the city with my
friends.The last few days I returned home to stay with my mom and dad.
M：Sounds like fun.
（Text 3）
M：Alice， what a surprise to run into you here！ When did you come to
Paris？
W：Three months ago.
M：What？ I thought you were just sightseeing here.So you’re working
here now.
W：That’s right.Now I’m teaching English in a middle school.
M：Why did you want to find a teaching job here？
W：Well， my husband Mark didn’t want to live in New York.He wanted
to move to Paris， so I came with him.
M：What？ When did you get married？
W：Last year.
M：Congratulations！ We’ve been out of touch for two years.Many things
have happened in the past two years.
W：That’s right.So are you working here？
M：No.I’m just travelling here with my parents.I still work in Beijing.
W：Do you want to settle down there？
M：No.My parents don’t want to leave America.I’ll work there for one
more year.Then I’ll go back to New York.
（Text 4）
W：Holiday Travel！What can I do for you？
M：Hello！ I’d like to book a flight to Berlin for the 23rd this month.
W：OK. Let me see what’s available.And when will you be returning？
M：Er ...well， I’d like to catch a return-flight on the 29th.Oh， and I’d
like the cheapest seat possible.
W：OK， let me see.Hmm ...the ticket price is much lower if you leave
one day earlier.
M：I see.How much is it for one day earlier？
W：It’s only 980 dollars.
M：All right.Then I’ll take that flight.
W：OK. That’s Flight BA 7101， from Salt Lake City to New York
Kennedy airport.Then Flight BA 2701 from Kennedy Airport to Berlin.The
first flight leaves Salt Lake City at 10：00 a.m.， and arrives in New York
at 4：15 p.m.Then the second flight leaves Kennedy Airport at 5：45
p.m.You’ll arrive in Berlin at 8：30 a.m.the next day.
M：All right.Thanks.

Where Is Area 51？
You’ll find it on a map — but you’ll never get anywhere near this top
secret military base.What exactly is going on there？ Is Area 51 a top
secret military base that lies in the middle of the barren Nevada desert？ Or
could it actually be a facility for examining aliens and their spaceships？
People can’t drive anywhere close to it， the US government rarely
acknowledges its existence， and until recently， the airspace overhead
was restricted！
Where Is Niagara Falls？
While traveling through Canada in 1678， a French priest （牧师）
came across the most gigantic waterfalls he’d ever seen.Stricken with both
awe and fear， he began to shake， fell to his knees， and prayed.Ever
since， people from all over the world have come to explore Niagara：
among them the daredevils determined to tumble down or walk across the
falls on tightrope.
Where Is Machu Picchu？
Built in the fifteenth century in the mountains of Peru， Machu
Picchu was abandoned after the Spaniards conquered the Inca Empire in
the sixteenth century.It remained hidden until 1911 when Hiram Bingham
uncovered the marvelous complex and shared his discovery with the
world.Today， hundreds of thousands of people visit the site to climb the
3，000 stone steps， explore the towering monuments， and see the
numerous species that call these famous ruins home.
Where Is the Bermuda Triangle？
This book presents the strange accidents and unexplained
disappearances that have occurred in the region known as the Bermuda
Triangle.The Bermuda Triangle became famous for making boats and ships
disappear， and for snatching planes right out of the sky.But are these
stories true？ With so many unusual events to learn about， readers will
love disappearing into this story.

On 7 May 2022， a mountain climber from Nepal set a new world
record for climbing Mount Everest the most times.Kami Rita， who’s 52，
has now climbed Mount Everest 26 times.
Mount Everest is the world’s highest mountain.The mountain is so
high that the air is thin.This makes it hard to breathe and remain active.The
ice and snow on the mountain， along with cold temperatures and strong
winds， make the climb difficult and dangerous.Over 300 people have died
trying to climb Mount Everest.
Many of the most talented guides， like Kami Rita and Tenzing
Norgay， are from a group of people called Sherpas.The Sherpas live in
the Himalayan mountains.They have the knowledge and the skills needed
to help foreign climbers become successful in their efforts.
Kami Rita comes from a mountain climbing family.Kami Rita has
been climbing mountains for over 35 years.He climbed Mount Everest for
the first time in 1994.Since then， he has climbed the mountain almost
every year.
In 2019， Kami Rita broke his own record twice in less than a
week.He climbed Mount Everest for the 23rd time on 15 May.Just six days
later， he climbed it for the 24th time.
Though Kami Rita is an expert on Mount Everest， he’s also climbed
many other high mountains in the Himalayas.He holds the world record for
climbing the most mountains taller than 8，000 meters.In all， he’s
climbed 38 mountains taller than 8，000 meters.
It’s not clear how long Kami Rita will continue to set climbing
records.He has said that he could probably continue to climb until he’s
sixty.He once said he would retire after climbing Mount Everest 25 times.
Kami Rita says he and his family became guides because they didn’t
have money for an education.But he doesn’t want his own children to
become climbing guides.He is happy that they can go to school and won’t
need to be exposed to the risks and dangers of mountain climbing.

This beautiful， quiet place is covered in sunshine and has mountains
all around it.Its name is Machu Picchu.It lies on top of a mountain， 8，
000 feet in the tropical forest.Even in the rain and fog， it’s wonderful to
walk through the ruins （废墟）.
Machu Picchu is more than 500 years old.According to scholars，
Machu Picchu was built for the Inca king around 1450.In the late 1800s，
explorers like Antonio crossed the grounds of the ruins without knowing
where he was.Machu Picchu became known to the world upon the 1911
arrival of Hiram Bingham.In 1983， Machu Picchu was declared a
UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Machu Picchu is considered by many to be the most wonderful
creation of the Inca Empire.It’s also full of cultural significance.Its various
sites and castles are connected with each other and with their
environment.This is a great artistic achievement and also masterpiece of
architecture.Everything is cultural and is related to each other， including
the natural environment in which it is built.
Currently， Machu Picchu is considered one of the Seven Wonders of
the New World； this promotes increased tourism in the area.Tourists of all
nationalities travel to Peru with the intention of visiting the Lost City of the
Incas.Machu Picchu is no longer quiet.
Some people in Peru hope that more tourists will come here.They
think it will mean more business and money for the country.However，
some worry that more visitors won’t be good for the environment.The truth
is that parts of Peru are very poor， and tourists bring money to these
communities.The Lost City is no longer lost.The modern world is coming
closer to this ancient world every day.

Will you eat everything in your lunch box today？ If not， what will
you do with what’s left over？ Save it for another time or throw it in the
bin？A new report by the United Nations （UN） estimates （估计） 17
percent of all the food produced around the world gets wasted each
year.That means 931 million tons of wasted food！ Most of the waste —
61 percent — happens in households， while food
services such as restaurants and cafes make up 26
percent and shops make up 13 percent， the UN found.
“Many countries haven’t yet known how much food they have
wasted， so they don’t understand how serious the problem is，” said
Clementine O’Connor， from the UN Environment Program and co-author
of the report.
Food waste is also bad for the environment.The UN Environment
Program estimates that wasted food is responsible for 8－10 percent of
global greenhouse gas emissions （排放）.If food waste was a country，
it would have the third highest greenhouse gas emissions in the world，
after only the US and China.
The report found food waste in homes wasn’t limited to higher income
countries such as the US， UK and Australia.Food waste researcher
Professor Brian Roe， from Ohio State University in the US， said food
was also sometimes wasted in poor countries because they didn’t have
refrigerators.
Professor Brian Roe said household and cultural habits could
contribute to waste at home， including “buy one， get one free”
deals.Meanwhile， “Use by” or “Best by” dates on products could also be
causing people to throw away food.People could be throwing out food
because they think it is unsafe to eat， when in fact the date only shows
when quality might decline.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
Of all the words in the English language， the word “OK” is pretty
new. 16
Although it’s become the most spoken word on the planet， it’s kind
of a strange word.Sometimes it’s spelled out — okay — and sometimes just
two letters are used：“OK. ” 17
The largest dictionary of the English language， the Oxford English
Dictionary， is always adding new words.In fact， it added 1，400 new
words in June 2019 and will add even more words.
“OK”， whose earliest usage is in 1839， according to the Oxford
English Dictionary， generally means things are good or alright.
18
We aren’t entirely sure.But some linguists point to how， in the early
19th century， humorous abbreviations （缩略词） were popular.Young
people would write things like “KG”， which stood for “know go”， an
intentional misspelling of “no go”， when they meant something was
impossible. 19
Likewise， experts think “OK” likely appeared as an abbreviation of
“oll korrect” — which was a jokey way of saying “all correct”.Others say
that it comes from “Old Kinderhook”， a nickname for former US
President Martin Van Buren， or that it comes from Choctaw， a Native
American language.
The nice thing about “OK” is that it’s so versatile （多功能的）.It
can be used as a noun， a verb， an adjective， a conjunction or an
interjection. 20
One last important thing to know： If you like to play word games，
it’s alright — and even OK — to use “OK” when playing.Just within the
past year， it became an accepted word.
A. What does OK mean？
B. It was a way to play with language.
C. So why did people start to say “OK”？
D. It has only been used for about 180 years.
E. Other times， periods separate the two letters： “O. K. ”
F. It’s also competed， over time， with “alright” and “all right”.
G. As a matter of fact， language has been changing as time goes on.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章简要介绍了英文单词OK的来
历。
16. D 上句指出OK一词比较新，D项正好是对此的解释说明。
17. E 上句告诉我们OK一词的两种拼写方式，E项则是第三种拼
写方式。
18. C 下文在讲述OK一词的来历，故C项符合语境。
19. B 上文所举例子KG是一个缩略词，也是一种文字游戏的方式，
故B项符合语境。
20. F 本段主要说明OK一词的功能很强大，上文说了其词性多，这
里F项是对其功能强大的进一步举例说明。
本文是一篇说明文。文章简要介绍了英文单词OK的来
历。
