Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Most nations have at least one type of food that people from other countries think is unusual or unethical(不道德的)to eat. In France, people eat horse meat and frog legs. In South Korea and parts of China, restaurants serve dog meat. And in Australia, it’s common to cook kangaroo meat on the barbecue and use emu(鸸鹋)eggs to make pancakes.
The kangaroo and emu are native to Australia. Both animals are important to the national image of Australia and appear on the Australian coat of arms. They’re also central figures in the history of the indigenous(土生土长的)Australian Aboriginals(土著人). However, Aboriginal tribes still hunt these animals for their meat, fur and fat.
Today, Australian people continue to eat these animals. One of the reasons people eat kangaroo meat is that it’s high in protein and low in fat, so eating kangaroo is a good option for anyone on a diet. It’s also cheaper to eat kangaroo meat than other red meats. Because of this, a lot of university students choose to buy kangaroo meat. BBC News also reported that Australian scientists believe that eating kangaroo meat is good for the environment--kangaroos have different digestive systems than cows and sheep, meaning they produce less methane(甲烷),the second biggest contributor to global warming.
While emu meat is high in iron and vitamin C, most people don’t think it tastes good. For this reason, they prefer emu eggs. One egg is large enough to make seven omelettes(煎蛋). And while it’s illegal to collect emu eggs from the wild, they can be bought from emu farms. Rather than cracking the beautiful dark shell, it’s better to drain it by putting a small hole at each end and blowing. Afterwards, you can even carve a design into the eggshell.
1. The author mentioned the meat-eating customs of different countries at the beginning of the article to __________.
A. present different cultures’ meat-eating preferences
B. suggest that people try to understand other countries’ diets
C. introduce the consumption of kangaroo meat and emu eggs in Australia
D. compare different eating habits among different countries
2. According to the article, the kangaroo __________.
A. is not considered precious in Australia
B. is considered healthy and environmentally friendly to eat
C. faces extinction due to hunting by Aboriginal tribes
D. contains large amounts of iron and vitamins in its meat
3. Which of the following statements is TRUE about emu eggs
A. Emu eggs taste terrible but are nutritious.
B. The shells of emu eggs are not difficult to break.
C. It’s common for Australians to collect emu eggs from the wild.
D. Emu egg shells can be used to create art.

When I was in university, I spent a semester studying abroad at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland. In my brief time there, I came to love Scotland for its local culture, food and scenery .
You might think, “Scotland isn’t so different from the US; they still speak English there!” But when I stepped off the plane, I was greeted by a gruff-voiced (声音粗哑的) lady at customs. “You’ll be coming from America, then ” she asked me, and I nodded. “But all of our lads (小伙子) are leaving Glasgow for the States!” Her thick Scottish English and sense of humor were obvious right away. I was not in the US anymore, where customs agents never joke around.
As I settled in at the university, I could feel myself getting used to hearing and even speaking the Scottish English of my customs agent. In classroom discussions, people would say “em” when they couldn’t think of what to say instead of “um”. After the first few weeks, I stopped chuckling about this. Strathclyde students stayed up late into the night, running around campus and shouting, “Here weh, here weh, here weh (curse word])go! Lat’s go, lat’s go, lat’s go (curse word) Glasgow!” Pretty soon, I was no longer saying “thanks” at the supermarket – instead, I said “cheers”.
My Scottish friends drank whiskey and ate haggis (羊杂碎布丁), a hearty dish made from sheep’s heart, liver and lungs. I drank plenty of whiskey but I’m ashamed to admit that I wasn’t brave enough to try haggis. Scottish bakeries usually sell bridies (肉馅饼), pies filled with salt and pepper, sliced onions, steak, butter and fat. Add a cup of tea – though I usually Americanized it by choosing coffee instead – and a bridie makes for a delicious breakfast.
Every time I took a train anywhere in Scotland, I’d gaze out at the rolling hills and wonder if grass was greener anywhere else in the world. Then I’d reflect that there’s a reason this country was the birthplace of golf.

After the first few weeks, I stopped chuckling about this” 根据句意分析:当我在大学里安顿下来的 时候,感觉自己在课堂讨论中已经能听懂了,当人们想不出要说什么而不是“嗯”时,他们会说“EM”。 几周之后,我不再静静地笑了。由于是上课所以不会大声说话,更不会生气地窃窃私语故A和B是错 误的,能听懂他们的讨论,不是仔细地听了,故C也是错误的,通过排除法可知D符合,故选D。

Dear Peter,
I’m glad to hear from you. Actually, I spend most of my spare time reading.
I have been in love with reading since I was young, and reading has become an important part of my life. The small size and the light weight of reading materials make it very convenient for me to put them into my handbag so that I can read whenever and wherever I go.
I usually get lost in reading, through which I can explore the beauty of the world and enjoy much fun. Besides, by reading, the wisdom of great authors can broaden my horizons and help me become a learned man. How do you spend your spare time Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
