课文三维剖析
CULTURE AND CUISINE
文化与美食
The French author Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin1 once wrote, “Tell me2what you eat3, and4 I will tell you what you are.” Put more simply, this means “You are what you eat5.” Most people today relate this saying to healthy eating. However, Brillat-Savarin was actually referring to our personality, character, and culture. 法国作家让·安泰尔姆·布里亚-萨瓦兰曾写道:“告诉我你平时吃什么,我就可以说出你是个什么样的人。”简单地说,这句话就是“人如其食”的意思。如今,大多数人把这条谚语与健康饮食联系起来。然而,布里亚-萨瓦兰实际上指的是我们的个性、品格及文化。 Certainly, in many ways this seems to be true6. Chinese cuisine is a case in point. Prior to coming to China7, my only experience with Chinese cooking8 was in America, with Chinese food9 that10 had been changed to suit American tastes11. For example, America's most popular Chinese dish is General Tso's chicken, which12 consists of fried chicken covered in a sweet sauce, flavoured with hot red peppers13. This is probably not an authentic Chinese recipe, however, so it cannot tell us much about the Chinese. On the other hand, it does14 tell us a lot about Americans. It tells us, for example15, that16 Americans love bold, simple flavours. And, since17 the dish was also invented recently, it tells us18 that Americans are not afraid to try new foods19. 当然,从很多方面来看,此话不假。中国菜就是个很好的例子。来中国之前,我只在美国接触过中式烹饪,那里的中国食物已被改变,以适应美国人的口味。例如,在美国最受欢迎的中国菜是“左宗棠鸡”,它在油炸的鸡肉上淋上甜酱,再佐以煸炒过的红辣椒制成。然而,这或许并不是地道的中餐做法,因此并不能让我们对中国人了解多少。不过在另一方面,它确实让我们对美国人了解很多。例如,这道菜说明美国人喜爱浓烈、简单的口味。此外,由于这道菜也是新发明,说明美国人不惧怕尝试新的菜品。 Later, I had a chance to experience authentic Chinese food20 by coming to China21 . When22 my family and I had just arrived in China, we went looking for a good place to eat23 in Beijing. A Sichuan restaurant had been recommended to us by a friend, and24 finally, we found it. Tired, hungry, and not knowing a word of Chinese25, we had no idea how to order26, so27 the chef just began filling our table with the best food we had ever eaten28. With this29, we had the pleasure of experiencing an entirely new taste30: Sichuan peppercorns31. The food was wonderful and different, but32what was even more important33 was the friendship offered us34. 后来,我来到中国,有机会品尝地道的中国食物。我与家人刚刚抵达中国,便在北京找一个好地方吃饭。一位朋友之前向我们推荐过一家川菜馆,最终我们找到了这家餐馆。又累又饿,一个汉字也不认识,我们压根儿不知道如何点餐,于是厨师在我们桌上摆满了食物,那是我们吃过的最可口的佳肴。于是,我们高高兴兴地体验了一种全新的口味:四川花椒。食物妙不可言、与众不同,但更为重要的是我们所获得的友谊。 We soon moved to Shandong Province in the eastern part of North China. My favourite dish there was boiled35 dumplings served with vinegar36 . I observed that37 family is important to the people there. It has become a favourite traditional dish of the people in North China38, where39 making dumplings40 has always been a family affair with everyone—from the youngest to the oldest—joining in to help41. Later, I learnt that42 the most famous food in Shandong is pancake rolls stuffed with sliced Chinese green onions43. 不久,我们到了位于华北东部的山东省。在那里我最喜爱的食物是蘸着醋吃的水饺。我发现那里的人都很重视家庭。水饺已成为华北人民最喜爱的一种传统食物;包饺子一直是一项全员参与的家庭活动,无论老少都会加入进来帮忙。后来,我了解到,最有名的山东食物是煎饼卷大葱。 Then we moved to northern Xinjiang. Some of our friends were Kazak and Inner Mongolian. These groups traditionally wandered the open range on horses. As a result, their traditional foods are what you can cook over an open fire44—usually boiled or roasted meat, such as lamb kebab45. 随后,我们又到了新疆北部。我们的一些朋友是哈萨克族人和内蒙古人。传统上,他们骑着马在广阔的草原上漫步。因此,他们的传统食物在篝火上烹制而成,通常是水煮肉或烤肉,例如羊肉串。 Our travels then took us to South China, and then on to central China. In each place we went, we experienced wonderful local dishes, from Guangdong's elegant dim sum—small servings of food in bamboo steamers—to the exceptional stewed noodles in Henan46. Everywhere, the food was as varied as the people. However, one thing is always true: Through food47, Chinese people everywhere show friendship and kindness. 接着,我们前往华南,之后又去了华中。我们每到一处,都会品尝当地美食,有广东的精致点心——那是放在竹蒸笼里蒸出来的小份食品——还有河南独特的烩面。所到之处的美食与当地人一样精彩纷呈。然而,有一件事始终不变:每个地方的中国人都通过食物展现友情与善意。 At a minimum, the kinds of food local people consume48tell us49 what they grow in their region, what kinds of lives they lead, and50 what they like and do not like. Could we also say, for example51, that52 those who like bold flavours53 are bold themselves? Or54, that those who like spicy food tend to have a hot temper? Maybe. Maybe not. What we can say55, however56, is that culture and cuisine go hand in hand57, and58if59 you do not experience one, you can never really know the other. 当地人的食物种类至少能让我们知道该地区种植什么作物、人们过着怎样的生活以及他们的爱憎。例如,我们是否也能这样推断,喜欢重口味的人性格粗犷?抑或喜欢辛辣食物的人往往脾气火暴?也许是的,也许又不是。但是,我们可以确定的是,文化和美食这两者息息相关,如果你没有体验过其中的一个,你就永远无法真正了解另一个。 1 是The French author的同位语 2 Tell的间接宾语 3 宾语从句,充当Tell的直接宾语 4 整句直接引语是and连接的并列句 5 宾语从句;what you eat是表语从句 6 作表语;seems是系动词 7 状语 8 介词短语作experience的后置定语 9 状语 10 引导定语从句,修饰food 11 不定式短语作目的状语 12 引导非限制性定语从句 13 两个过去分词短语(covered ... 和flavoured ...) 作chicken的后置定语 14 does/do/did用于动词原形前,起强调谓语动词的作用 15 插入语 16 引导宾语从句 17 引导原因状语从句 18 tells的间接宾语 19 宾语从句,充当tells的直接宾语 20 不定式短语作chance的后置定语 21 介词短语作方式状语 22 引导时间状语从句 23 不定式作place的后置定语 24 整句是由and连接的并列句 25 形容词和现在分词短语,作原因状语 26 疑问词+不定式,作idea的同位语 27 整句是由so连接的并列句 28 省略了引导词that的定语从句,修饰food 29 介词短语作方式状语 30 介词短语作pleasure的后置定语 31 作taste的同位语 32 整句是由but连接的并列句 33 主语从句 34 过去分词短语作后置定语,修饰friendship 35 过去分词作dumplings的前置定语 36 过去分词短语作dumplings的后置定语 37 引导宾语从句 38 介词短语作dish的后置定语 39 引导非限制性定语从句,解释说明North China 40 动名词短语作主语 41 with复合结构(with+everyone+joining ...)是affair的后置定语;from the youngest to the oldest是everyone的后置定语 42 引导宾语从句 43 过去分词短语作rolls的后置定语 44 表语从句 45 作boiled or roasted meat的同位语 46 from ... to ... 介词短语,作local dishes的同位语 47 方式状语 48 省略了引导词that/which的定语从句,修饰food 49 tell sb sth,sb(us)是间接宾语 50 and连接三个what引导的宾语从句,作直接宾语 51 插入语 52 引导宾语从句 53 定语从句,修饰those 54 连接两个由that 引导的宾语从句 55 主语从句 56 插入语 57 表语从句 58 and连接两个并列句 59 引导条件状语从句

Ahh ... Fish, chips and mushy peas! There is nothing more British than fish and chips. Freshly cooked, boiling hot fish and chips, topped with salt and seasoned with vinegar, packed in newspaper and eaten outdoors on a cold and wintry day—it simply cannot be beaten!
1 Both Lancashire and London claim to be the first to invent this famous meal. Chips were a cheap, basic food of the industrial north while fried fish was introduced in London's East End. 2 So was born our national dish of fish and chips!
3 Mr Lees sold fish and chips from a wooden shelter in the market. Later he moved the business to a permanent shop across the road. However, in London, it is said that Joseph Malin, a Jewish immigrant, opened a fish and chip shop in Cleveland Way within the sound of Bow Bells in the 1860s.
Fish and chip shops were originally small family businesses, often run from the front room of the house and were commonplace by the late 19th century. Through the latter part of the 19th century and well into the 20th century, the fish and chip trade expanded greatly to satisfy the needs of the growing industrial population of Great Britain. Fish and chips became vital to the diet of the ordinary people. 4
In 1999, the British consumed nearly 300 million servings of fish and chips. That equates to six servings for every man, woman and child in the country. 5 That's eight for every one Burger King restaurant, making British Fish and Chips the nation's favourite take away.
A.It quickly became a favourite of the workers.
B.People soon decided to put fried fish and chips together.
C.John Lees owned a restaurant and sold the famous pairing.
D.So how, when and where did this British dish come about?
E.There are now around 8,500 fish and chip shops across the UK.
F.Some shops had to employ doormen to control the queue at busy times.
G.The first fish and chip shop in Lancashire is thought to have opened in 1863.

Throughout history, many species of animals have been threatened with 1 (extinct). When Europeans first arrived in North America, more than 60 million buffalo (水牛) lived on the continent.

In some countries today, the elephant faces a similar challenge, as illegal hunters kill the animals 4 the ivory (象牙) in their tusks.

The reason is that elephants are a common resource, while cows are private goods. Elephants wander 8 (free) without any owners. The hunter has a strong motivation to kill as many elephants as he can find. Because hunters are numerous, each has only a slight motivation to care for the elephant population. By contrast, cattle live on farms 9 are privately owned. Each farmer makes great efforts to maintain the cattle population on his own farm because he harvests 10 benefit of these efforts.

篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。纵观历史,许多动物物种都面临着灭绝的威胁。本文解释了为什么象牙的商业价值威胁到大象,而牛肉的商业价值却保护了奶牛。

2.答案:had fallen
解析:考查动词的时态。句意:然而,在19世纪,狩猎野牛是如此流行,以至于到1900年,在政府采取措施保护该物种之前,野牛的数量已经下降到大约400头。设空处在句中作谓语,根据时间状语“by 1900”可知,设空处应用过去完成时。故填had fallen。

6.答案:valuable
解析:考查词性转换。设空处应用形容词作定语,修饰名词source。故填valuable。
7.答案:protects

Britons are well known for the amount of tea that they drink. The average person in the UK consumes around 1.9 kg of tea yearly. That's around 876 cups of tea. Tea is drunk by all sections of society. But tea is not native to Britain. Most tea is grown in India and China. So, how did it become an important part of British culture?
Tea arrived in London in the 1600s. At this time, British ships were exploring the world and came across the drink in China. It was not long before green tea was available to buy. However, this was only available to the richer sections of society.
At the beginning of the 1700s, the amount of tea arriving in Britain increased gradually. Black tea arrived at this time. At first people drank this tea exactly as it was in China. They soon discovered that it mixed really well with a little milk and sugar, giving the drink a special British characteristic.
In the 1800s tea was still a product enjoyed only by people with money. At this time they began to have “afternoon tea”. This involves drinking tea with a snack around 4 pm to avoid feeling hungry between lunch and dinner. It is a tradition that is still going today but has become less popular in recent times.
In the late 1800s, the price of tea decreased sharply as more tea began to arrive on ships from India and China. It was no longer a drink just for rich people. Tearooms—shops where you could buy and drink tea—started to appear across the country. People enjoyed drinking tea and socialising in these places. At the start of the 20th century, Britons began to make tea in their homes whenever they felt like it. Kettles became necessary in every kitchen.

Wilberforce Tushemereirwe holds up a genetically modified banana that took millions of dollars and 20 years to make. It contains a large amount of provitamin A, a substance that transforms into vitamin A in the body. This “super banana” was created at Uganda's National Agricultural Research Laboratories for the noblest of causes: to save the lives of thousands of children who die in Uganda every year from a lack of vitamin A.
Vitamin A shortage remains a serious global public health problem. The World Health Organization estimates that 190 million preschool children suffer from vitamin A shortage today, mostly in sub Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia. It is the leading cause of preventable blindness in children. It also inhibits children's growth and weakens their resistance to illnesses so that many die from treatable diseases such as diarrhea and measles. In Uganda, one of the world's poorest countries, it remains high on the list of health risks, which makes it urgent to find ways to deal with the condition.
The Ugandan government has tried for decades to solve the problem—with limited success. Distribution of vitamin A capsules, for example, worked well in urban areas but failed to reach those most in need in rural areas. Increasing corn and wheat flour and eatable oils with vitamin A proved more effective. But those foods are not consumed in large enough amounts to make a meaningful difference. Bananas, a main staple of the Ugandan diet, seemed to be a better option.
Yet, one problem still remains. Fred Wanyu, a Ugandan tribal leader and linguist, says his ancestors considered the banana “the mother of society”. Farmers worry that a new super banana will distort (扭曲) Ugandan banana culture dramatically. Though he respects the ancestors, Wanyu also believes that if a little piece of banana is added to a sister banana, developing into something better, “I think we will live in a better world.” “That's what many Ugandans wish for as they struggle their way out of malnutrition and extreme poverty.” “Culture is dynamic,” Wanyu said. “Otherwise, we would continue writing on stones.”
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新型“超级香蕉”的诞生。
1.Why was the super banana created?
A.To increase the production of bananas.
B.To assist Ugandan people in fighting hunger.
C.To help the human body absorb more vitamin A.
D.To save children suffering from vitamin A shortage.
答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“This ‘super banana’ was ... a lack of vitamin A.”可知,这种“超级香蕉”是由乌干达国家农业研究实验室研制出来的,目的是挽救乌干达每年因缺乏维生素A而死亡的成千上万名儿童的生命。故选D。
2.What is the main purpose of Paragraph 2?
A.To show ways of preventing vitamin A shortage.
B.To explain the leading cause of blindness in children.
C.To stress the urgency of developing the super banana.
D.To introduce some serious global public health problems.
答案:C
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段中的“In Uganda ... deal with the condition.(乌干达是世界上最贫穷的国家之一,它仍然在健康风险清单上名列前茅,因此迫切需要找到应对这种情况的方法。)”可推知,该段的主要目的是强调研制超级香蕉解决维生素A缺乏问题的迫切性。故选C。
3.What is Wanyu's attitude towards the super banana?
A.Positive. B.Doubtful.
C.Indifferent. D.Disapproving.
答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Wanyu also believes ... and extreme poverty.’(万宇还认为把一种香蕉通过转基因技术嫁接到另一种香蕉上,可以得到更好的香蕉,‘我想我们会生活在一个更好的世界。’‘这也是许多乌干达人在努力摆脱营养不良和极端贫困时所希望的。’)”可推知,他对超级香蕉持积极的态度。故选A。
4.What's the best title for the text?
A.Advantages of “Super Banana”
B.Exploration of “Super Banana”
C.Wide Spread of “Super Banana”
D.Large Output of “Super Banana”
答案:B
解析:标题判断题。通读全文,尤其根据第一段中的“This ‘super banana’ was created ... a lack of vitamin A.”可知,文章主要介绍乌干达国家农业研究实验室为了挽救每年因缺乏维生素A而死亡的成千上万名儿童的生命,不断努力,最终研制出“超级香蕉”。由此可知,B项(“超级香蕉”的探索)最适合作为文章标题。故选B。

Beijing is no stranger to Western food. American restaurants like McDonald's and KFC have brought more Western dishes to the local food scene in recent years. Now, two new restaurants have joined them.
In August, Taco Bell and Shake Shack opened their doors to eager customers in Beijing. Taco Bell is a popular American fast food restaurant that features Mexican food. Hard and soft shell tacos are a staple (主食) on the menu; they are generally served with beef, lettuce and tomato. And of course there are burritos—chicken, beef or beans wrapped in a tortilla (墨西哥薄馅饼). However, there are new menu items that are special to the Beijing location, such as the Yang Berry Freeze and Avocado Oolong Tea.
Shake Shack, known for its traditional American style hamburgers and milk shakes, is also serving up dishes that won't be found in branches outside of the capital. Harry Wang, who studied in the US, visited the restaurant soon after it opened. “The last time I had Shake Shack was more than a year ago when I was in the United States,” Wang said. “They are pretty similar to what we had in the United States, but there is a milkshake special to Beijing.”
The milkshake Wang referred to is the Hutong Hawthorn. The shake mixes hawthorn, a traditional Chinese snack, into a milkshake, a common ice cream drink in Western fast food. The Beijing Shake Shack also offers roasted chestnut ice cream.
Both restaurants also reflect elements of Chinese culture in their decorations. Shake Shack's windows feature cartoons showing hutong life, and Taco Bell has a picture of a palace at the Temple of Heaven on one of its walls.
From the design to the menus, the two restaurants are “adding a touch of local flavor”, noted China News.

Chinese people take their food and eat it extremely seriously. Eating is a communal, social, and human experience in China. Sharing a meal is a sign of friendship and trust. Eating plays a central role in friendship, business, medicine, family and love. In short, food is life.
When eating, the rice is separated into your own personal bowl, but the dishes are placed in communal bowls in the centre of the table and everybody helps themselves with chopsticks. It's considered polite, and a sign of respect and friendship, to encourage other people to eat plenty of the good bits, even to pick up food with your chopsticks and drop it into their rice bowls for them.
Food is an important component of weddings, funerals and almost all Chinese festivals. New Year's Day is the time for dumplings; the Dragon Boat Festival is the time for sticky rice zongzi wrapped in leaves, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is the time for mooncakes. The dinner table is the best forum to close business deals, and it's the number one thing to do with friends.
Chinese women express their admiration for the opposite sex by cooking delicious meals of many courses, and these days it's the other way round, too.
In short, if you want to get to know Chinese people, understand Chinese culture and thinking and get into Chinese life, you have to eat and appreciate Chinese food.

当然,从很多方面来看,此话不假。中国菜就是个很好的例子。来中国之前,我只在美国接触过中式烹饪,那里的中国食物已被改变,以适应美国人的口味。例如,在美国最受欢迎的中国菜是“左宗棠鸡”,它在油炸的鸡肉上淋上甜酱,再佐以煸炒过的红辣椒制成。然而,这或许并不是地道的中餐做法,因此并不能让我们对中国人了解多少。不过在另一方面,它确实让我们对美国人了解很多。例如,这道菜说明美国人喜爱浓烈、简单的口味。此外,由于这道菜也是新发明,说明美国人不惧怕尝试新的菜品。

Ahh ... Fish, chips and mushy peas! There is nothing more British than fish and chips. Freshly cooked, boiling hot fish and chips, topped with salt and seasoned with vinegar, packed in newspaper and eaten outdoors on a cold and wintry day—it simply cannot be beaten!
1 Both Lancashire and London claim to be the first to invent this famous meal. Chips were a cheap, basic food of the industrial north while fried fish was introduced in London's East End. 2 So was born our national dish of fish and chips!
3 Mr Lees sold fish and chips from a wooden shelter in the market. Later he moved the business to a permanent shop across the road. However, in London, it is said that Joseph Malin, a Jewish immigrant, opened a fish and chip shop in Cleveland Way within the sound of Bow Bells in the 1860s.
Fish and chip shops were originally small family businesses, often run from the front room of the house and were commonplace by the late 19th century. Through the latter part of the 19th century and well into the 20th century, the fish and chip trade expanded greatly to satisfy the needs of the growing industrial population of Great Britain. Fish and chips became vital to the diet of the ordinary people. __4__
In 1999, the British consumed nearly 300 million servings of fish and chips. That equates to six servings for every man, woman and child in the country. 5 That's eight for every one Burger King restaurant, making British Fish and Chips the nation's favourite take away.
A.It quickly became a favourite of the workers.
B.People soon decided to put fried fish and chips together.
C.John Lees owned a restaurant and sold the famous pairing.
D.So how, when and where did this British dish come about?
E.There are now around 8,500 fish and chip shops across the UK.
F.Some shops had to employ doormen to control the queue at busy times.
G.The first fish and chip shop in Lancashire is thought to have opened in 1863.

3.答案:G

Ⅲ 语法填空
Throughout history, many species of animals have been threatened with 1 (extinct). When Europeans first arrived in North America, more than 60 million buffalo (水牛) lived on the continent. Yet hunting the buffalo was so popular during the 19th century that by 1900 the animal's population 2 (fall) to about 400 before the government took action 3 (preserve) the species. In some countries today, the elephant faces a similar challenge, as illegal hunters kill the animals 4 the ivory (象牙) in their tusks.
5 , not all animals with commercial value face this threat. The cow, for example, is a 6 (value) source of food, but no one worries that the cow will soon be extinct. Why does the commercial value of ivory threaten the elephant, while the commercial value of beef 7 (protect) the cow?
The reason is that elephants are a common resource, while cows are private goods. Elephants wander 8 (free) without any owners. The hunter has a strong motivation to kill as many elephants as he can find. Because hunters are numerous, each has only a slight motivation to care for the elephant population. By contrast, cattle live on farms
9 are privately owned. Each farmer makes great efforts to maintain the cattle population on his own farm because he harvests 10 benefit of these efforts.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。纵观历史,许多动物物种都面临着灭绝的威胁。本文解释了为什么象牙的商业价值威胁到大象,而牛肉的商业价值却保护了奶牛。
1.________ 2.________ 3.________ 4.________ 5.________
6.________ 7.________ 8.________ 9.________ 10.________
1.答案:extinction
解析:考查词性转换。设空处应用名词作介词with的宾语,表示抽象概念,为不可数名词。故填extinction。
2.答案:had fallen
解析:考查动词的时态。句意:然而,在19世纪,狩猎野牛是如此流行,以至于到1900年,在政府采取措施保护该物种之前,野牛的数量已经下降到大约400头。设空处在句中作谓语,根据时间状语“by 1900”可知,设空处应用过去完成时。故填had fallen。
3.答案: to preserve
解析:考查非谓语动词。设空处应用非谓语动词,在句中作目的状语,应用动词不定式,表示政府采取行动的目的是保护物种。故填to preserve。

5.答案: However
解析:考查副词。句意:然而,并非所有具有商业价值的动物都面临着这种威胁。根据上文“In some countries today ... ivory (象牙) in their tusks.”及下文“not all animals ... face this threat”可知,设空处表示转折,且前面有逗号隔开,应用however。位于句首,单词首字母应大写。故填However。
6.答案: valuable
解析:考查词性转换。设空处应用形容词作定语,修饰名词source。故填valuable。
7.答案: protects
解析:考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意:为什么象牙的商业价值威胁到大象,而牛肉的商业价值却保护了奶牛?叙述客观事实,应用一般现在时;设空处在句中作谓语,主语为the commercial value,谓语应用单数。故填protects。
8.答案: freely
解析:考查词性转换。设空处作状语,应用副词修饰动词wander。故填freely。
9.答案: that/which
解析:考查定语从句的引导词。句意:相比之下,牛生活在私人拥有的农场。设空处引导定语从句,且在句中作主语,先行词为farms,指物。故填that/which。
10.答案: the
解析:考查冠词。句意:每个农民都努力维持自己农场的牛的数量,因为他从这些努力中获得好处。根据benefit的后置定语“of these efforts”可知,此处特指这些努力的好处。故填the。
Britons are well known for the amount of tea that they drink. The average person in the UK consumes around 1.9 kg of tea yearly. That's around 876 cups of tea. Tea is drunk by all sections of society. But tea is not native to Britain. Most tea is grown in India and China. So, how did it become an important part of British culture?
Tea arrived in London in the 1600s. At this time, British ships were exploring the world and came across the drink in China. It was not long before green tea was available to buy. However, this was only available to the richer sections of society.
精深阅读
At the beginning of the 1700s, the amount of tea arriving in Britain increased gradually. Black tea arrived at this time. At first people drank this tea exactly as it was in China. They soon discovered that it mixed really well with a little milk and sugar, giving the drink a special British characteristic.
In the 1800s tea was still a product enjoyed only by people with money. At this time they began to have “afternoon tea”. This involves drinking tea with a snack around 4 pm to avoid feeling hungry between lunch and dinner. It is a tradition that is still going today but has become less popular in recent times.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了茶在英国文化中的发展历史。
In the late 1800s, the price of tea decreased sharply as more tea began to arrive on ships from India and China. It was no longer a drink just for rich people. Tearooms—shops where you could buy and drink tea—started to appear across the country. People enjoyed drinking tea and socialising in these places. At the start of the 20th century, Britons began to make tea in their homes whenever they felt like it. Kettles became necessary in every kitchen.

3.When was tea no longer a drink just for rich people in the UK?
A.In the early 1700s.

Wilberforce Tushemereirwe holds up a genetically modified banana that took millions of dollars and 20 years to make. It contains a large amount of provitamin A, a substance that transforms into vitamin A in the body. This “super banana” was created at Uganda's National Agricultural Research Laboratories for the noblest of causes: to save the lives of thousands of children who die in Uganda every year from a lack of vitamin A.
Vitamin A shortage remains a serious global public health problem. The World Health Organization estimates that 190 million preschool children suffer from vitamin A shortage today, mostly in sub Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia. It is the leading cause of preventable blindness in children. It also inhibits children's growth and weakens their resistance to illnesses so that many die from treatable diseases such as diarrhea and measles. In Uganda, one of the world's poorest countries, it remains high on the list of health risks, which makes it urgent to find ways to deal with the condition.
The Ugandan government has tried for decades to solve the problem—with limited success. Distribution of vitamin A capsules, for example, worked well in urban areas but failed to reach those most in need in rural areas. Increasing corn and wheat flour and eatable oils with vitamin A proved more effective. But those foods are not consumed in large enough amounts to make a meaningful difference. Bananas, a main staple of the Ugandan diet, seemed to be a better option.
Yet, one problem still remains. Fred Wanyu, a Ugandan tribal leader and linguist, says his ancestors considered the banana “the mother of society”. Farmers worry that a new super banana will distort (扭曲) Ugandan banana culture dramatically.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新型“超级香蕉”的诞生。
Though he respects the ancestors, Wanyu also believes that if a little piece of banana is added to a sister banana, developing into something better, “I think we will live in a better world.” “That’s what many Ugandans wish for as they struggle their way out of malnutrition and extreme poverty.” “Culture is dynamic,” Wanyu said. “Otherwise, we would continue writing on stones.”
1.Why was the super banana created?
A.To increase the production of bananas.
B.To assist Ugandan people in fighting hunger.
C.To help the human body absorb more vitamin A.
D.To save children suffering from vitamin A shortage.
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“This ‘super banana’ was ... a lack of vitamin A.”可知,这种“超级香蕉”是由乌干达国家农业研究实验室研制出来的,目的是挽救乌干达每年因缺乏维生素A而死亡的成千上万名儿童的生命。故选D。
2.What is the main purpose of Paragraph 2?
A.To show ways of preventing vitamin A shortage.
B.To explain the leading cause of blindness in children.
C.To stress the urgency of developing the super banana.
D.To introduce some serious global public health problems.
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段中的“In Uganda ... deal with the condition.(乌干达是世界上最贫穷的国家之一,它仍然在健康风险清单上名列前茅,因此迫切需要找到应对这种情况的方法。)”可推知,该段的主要目的是强调研制超级香蕉解决维生素A缺乏问题的迫切性。故选C。
3.What is Wanyu's attitude towards the super banana?
A.Positive. B.Doubtful.
C.Indifferent. D.Disapproving.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Wanyu also believes ... and extreme poverty.’(万宇还认为把一种香蕉通过转基因技术嫁接到另一种香蕉上,可以得到更好的香蕉,‘我想我们会生活在一个更好的世界。’‘这也是许多乌干达人在努力摆脱营养不良和极端贫困时所希望的。’)”可推知,他对超级香蕉持积极的态度。故选A。
4.What's the best title for the text?
A.Advantages of “Super Banana” B.Exploration of “Super Banana”
C.Wide Spread of “Super Banana” D.Large Output of “Super Banana”
解析:标题判断题。通读全文,尤其根据第一段中的“This ‘super banana’ was created ... a lack of vitamin A.”可知,文章主要介绍乌干达国家农业研究实验室为了挽救每年因缺乏维生素A而死亡的成千上万名儿童的生命,不断努力,最终研制出“超级香蕉”。由此可知,B项(“超级香蕉”的探索)最适合作为文章标题。故选B。
B
Beijing is no stranger to Western food. American restaurants like McDonald's and KFC have brought more Western dishes to the local food scene in recent years. Now, two new restaurants have joined them.
In August, Taco Bell and Shake Shack opened their doors to eager customers in Beijing. Taco Bell is a popular American fast food restaurant that features Mexican food. Hard and soft shell tacos are a staple (主食) on the menu; they are generally served with
beef, lettuce and tomato. And of course there are burritos—chicken, beef or beans wrapped in a tortilla (墨西哥薄馅饼). However, there are new menu items that are special to the Beijing location, such as the Yang Berry Freeze and Avocado Oolong Tea.
Shake Shack, known for its traditional American style hamburgers and milk shakes, is also serving up dishes that won’t be found in branches outside of the capital. Harry Wang, who studied in the US, visited the restaurant soon after it opened. “The last time I had Shake Shack was more than a year ago when I was in the United States,” Wang said. “They are pretty similar to what we had in the United States, but there is a milkshake special to Beijing.”
The milkshake Wang referred to is the Hutong Hawthorn. The shake mixes hawthorn, a traditional Chinese snack, into a milkshake, a common ice cream drink in Western fast food. The Beijing Shake Shack also offers roasted chestnut ice cream.
Both restaurants also reflect elements of Chinese culture in their decorations. Shake Shack's windows feature cartoons showing hutong life, and Taco Bell has a picture of a palace at the Temple of Heaven on one of its walls.
From the design to the menus, the two restaurants are “adding a touch of local flavor”, noted China News.

6.What can we know about Taco Bell?
A.It is a traditional Mexican restaurant.
B.It has the same menu around the world.
C.It is a popular Mexican restaurant in China.

A.They try to keep the original characteristics in all locations.

Chinese people take their food and eat it extremely seriously. Eating is a communal, social, and human experience in China. Sharing a meal is a sign of friendship and trust. Eating plays a central role in friendship, business, medicine, family and love. In short, food is life.
When eating, the rice is separated into your own personal bowl, but the dishes are placed in communal bowls in the centre of the table and everybody helps themselves
with chopsticks. It's considered polite, and a sign of respect and friendship, to encourage other people to eat plenty of the good bits, even to pick up food with your chopsticks and drop it into their rice bowls for them.
Food is an important component of weddings, funerals and almost all Chinese festivals. New Year's Day is the time for dumplings; the Dragon Boat Festival is the time for sticky rice zongzi wrapped in leaves, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is the time for mooncakes. The dinner table is the best forum to close business deals, and it's the number one thing to do with friends.
