第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分 35 分)

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题纸上
将该项涂黑。
A
The new wave of plant-based “meat” is going mainstream and straight into one of America’s most iconic chain fast-food burgers, the White Castle Slider. White
Castle announced Thursday it is introducing a vegetarian fake-meat version of its
famous mini-burgers. The burger is one of several scientifically engineered products
made to make plant ingredients (成分) taste just like beef. Called the Impossible
Slider, it will be first sold in the New York, New Jersey and greater Chicago areas
with the potential for a nationwide promotion.
The White Castle Impossible Slider—made with cheese, pickles, onions and a
bun—features a 2-ounce patty and costs $1. 99, while the traditional 0.9-ounce
mini-cheeseburger costs 94 cents. “Plant-based proteins are growing. We felt it
was a good opportunity to test it with our customers,” CEO Lisa Ingram said. “We
think it will appeal to a broad range of customers—those that are meat eaters who
want to try something different and non-meat eaters who want this.” She also said
the new sliders might bring in new customers, too.
The Impossible Slider represents what few in the traditional beef industry
thought possible—that cowless meat would be a hit in a country known for its
meat-and-potatoes diet and love of burgers. Plant-based meat alternatives are
growing at a rate of about 11% a year, according to research firm Acosta. The market
isn’t just vegetarians: some 71% of people who buy plant-based meat also eat the
real thing.
“Interest in meat alternatives seems to be driven by consumers at large, not
just those looking for vegetarian life-styles, but looking for diversification (多样
化) of tastes and health benefits,” said Billy Roberts, senior food and drink
analyst at global market research firm Mintel. “Our business is a growth business.
There’ll be increased demands for products like the Impossible Burger,” Impossible
Foods Chief Operating Officer David Lee said. “People are increasingly asking about
what impact food has on the environment and our health.”
21. What is the selling point of the Impossible Slider?
A. Its low price. B. Its good taste.
C. Its high technology. D. Its plant-based ingredients.
22. According to the passage, who may be attracted by the Impossible Slider?
① people living a vegetarian life ② people looking for various tastes
③ people valuing health ④ people disliking fast-food
A. ① B. ①② C. ①②③ D. ①②③④
23. What can be inferred from David Lee’s words?
A. Curiosity drives more people to buy the Impossible Slider.
B. People’s concern over the environment and health may help the new business.
C. People’s doubt about food impact may stop the Impossible Slider’s
popularity.
D. Eco-friendly people play an important part in promoting the Impossible Slider.
B
You may have heard the expression “buying into the dip”. We usually think of
this in terms of investing (投资)—for example, recessions(经济萧条) offer an
opportunity to take advantage of buying cheap stocks that were once expensive. But to me, “buying into the dip” is a term which covers a lot more than that.
There are a few reasons that I was able to “buy into the dip” and start a business
during the Great Recession: ChopDawg.com had zero upstart costs, with no need for
any credit to get started. No loans, just $10 for the domain name. I picked a service
that only required my own time and labor and that’s basically it. Not needing credit
was a big deal for me, and I didn’t even think about this at the time.
I was also selling a service that was priced at just the right rock-bottom level
to fill a need. Local small businesses badly needed more sales, since so many had
cut their spending due to the recession. A website could give these businesses a
new way to reach their customers, new and old.
From an economic standpoint, the Great Recession was an opportunity to start
if you were selling the right thing at the right cost. During recessions, the pool
gets way less crowded. Potential competitors become much more unwilling to risk,
but for those who have an in-demand service, and the means to provide it, you are
in business.
Back in 2009, website design had not yet become a commercial service. Offering
web design as a service for small businesses was a novel idea, and many mom-and-pop
shops didn’t know they needed it yet, which brings me to this: if you can solve
a fresh-out-of-the-recession pain point at the right price, you have a chance of
buying into the dip and helping a lot of people at the same time.
24. What is “buying into the dip” to the author?
A. Selling things at low costs.
B. Buying cheap stocks in time.
C. Offering help to small businesses.
D. Starting a business with the least investment.
25. What does the underlined word “novel” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Familiar. B. Simple. C. Clear. D. New.
26. What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. Start small—very small. B. Keep an eye on what you may need.
C. Serve right—quite right. D. Adapt to changes in the Internet
service.
C
When I was 10 years old, I asked a neighborhood kid who was older than me, “Which
city is further west: Reno, Nev., or Los Angeles?” The correct answer is Reno, Nevada.
But he was convinced it was the other way around.
He was so convinced that Los Angeles was west of Reno that he was willing to
bet me two dollars. So I went into the house to get my Rand McNally Map. The kid
looked at the map and said, “The map is drawn funny.” It wasn’t. Was his argument
that the map didn’t preserve east, west, north and south? What kind of map would
that be? I showed him if you trace down the 120-degree west line of longitude (经
度)—which runs almost directly through Reno, Nev.—you end up in the Pacific
Ocean, somewhere west of Los Angeles.
He replied that lines of longitude don’t cross the ocean.
What? I told him that the lines of longitude were there to show how far west or east some location was, regardless of whether it was on land or on sea.
There was one problem, however. He was bigger than me.
I drew a number of conclusions from this story.
There is such a thing as truth, but we often tend to ignore it. Also, it’s not
just thinking something that makes it true. Truth is not relative. It’s not
subjective. It may be hidden. People may wish to ignore it. But there is such a thing
as truth and the pursuit (追求) of truth: trying to figure out what has really
happened, trying to figure out how things really are.
Almost 15 years ago, I came across a story about an innocent man, a man who had
been sentenced to death in the Huntsville, Texas, electric chair. And through hard
work and luck, I was able to make the movie The Thin Blue Line and to help get him
out of prison.
What kept me going was the belief that there had to be answers to the questions
“Did he do it?”, “Was he guilty or innocent?”, “If he didn’t do it, who did?”
and that I could find an answer to these questions through investigating (调查).
It’s not that we find truth with a big “T”. We investigate and sometimes we
find things out and sometimes we don’t. There’s no way to know in advance. It’s
just that we have to go ahead as though there are answers to questions. We must go
ahead as though, in principle, we can find things out—even if we can’t. The
alternative is unacceptable.
I will never know whether the neighborhood kid really didn’t understand the
logic of my argument about Reno, Nev. Or whether he understood it completely and
just didn’t want to admit it. Or whether he understood it and just didn’t want
to pay up. I’ll never know.
All I know is I never got my two dollars.
27. Why does the author tell the story of the neighborhood boy?
A. To recall his good old days.
B. To show his good sense of direction.
C. To introduce the topic of finding truth.
D. To stress the importance of geography.
28. Why did the boy say “The map is drawn funny.” in Paragraph 2?
A. Because he had fun reading maps.
B. Because he refused to admit his mistake.
C. Because the map was drawn in a different way.
D. Because there were some mistakes in the map.
29. What encouraged the author to make the movie The Thin Blue Line?
A. His devotion to films. B. His willingness to help.
C. His belief in finding answers. D. His mercy for the innocent man.
30. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Great minds think alike. B. It’s never too late to learn.
C. Truth never fears investigation. D. Honesty is the best policy.
第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余
选项。 Going green is a great way to reduce your environmental footprint and help the
planet. Being green is all about reducing how many resources you use, reusing items
when you can, and recycling items that can’t be reused. 31
Carry a reusable water bottle so you will not need bottled water.
32 Not only does it create trash, but it also uses more resources because
it’s shipped to the store. To be more eco-friendly, make it a habit to carry a
reusable water bottle with you everywhere so that you can drink water on the go.
Plastic bottles are usually the lightest and most convenient.
Use reusable bags while you’re shopping.
Shopping bags make it easy to carry your items home, but they also pollute the
planet. Skip the store’s shopping bags and bring your own instead. Use a backpack
that you already own, or purchase a couple of reusable bags from the checkout area
at your local grocery store. 33
34
Before you throw something away, look for ways you might reuse it. Try
re-purposing items or making green crafts. This will help you keep trash out of the
landfill. For example, instead of throwing away a jar, you might use it as a glass,
vase, or storage container.
Reduce the amount of time you spend using electronics.
While electronics are really fun and help you feel connected to your friends,
they also use up a lot of energy. Schedule breaks from your electronics so you can
use them less. During your breaks, do something fun like going for a walk, playing
a game with your friends, or pursuing a hobby. 35 For instance, instead of
playing online video games together, go to a local park.
A. Glass bottles have come a long way in recent years.
B. Reuse items to save them from the landfill.
C. You can use your reusable bags at most stores.
D. Bottled water is really bad for the environment.
E. You probably need to change your personal habits.
F. Invite your friends to connect with you in real life.
G. You can find ideas for green crafts by searching online.

The UK produces more electricity from renewable sources 61 it did from

Renewable energy production accounts for 40% of the UK’s electricity, with fossil

阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇 60 词左右的内容概要。
In the last few decades, scientists have reached a consensus and reported that
human beings are causing changes in the Earth’s climate.
In the last 50 years, gases pumped into the Earth’s atmosphere by factories
and vehicles have been speeding up the process of global warming and affecting our
climate. Global warming refers to an average increase in the Earth’s temperature
that, in turn, leads to climate change. If we continue to produce carbon dioxide
and other gases in such huge quantities, we are expecting severe consequences. Recent
reports have warned that global warming will cause terrible climate changes
including more frequent flooding, heat, waves and droughts. Serious diseases will
spread and industries that rely on nature will be badly affected. Increased
temperatures will also cause the polar ice to melt, raising sea levels and flooding
many islands and cities. How can we stop these disasters from happening?
Governments all over the world should take on the responsibility, but this is
no easy task. Some governments express reservations about whether global warming
is really caused by human activities. Many people believe that they are simply not
prepared to give up the amount of money they make from industry to save the Earth.
But why wait around for governments to take action? Experts say that each person
plays their part. They suggest making small changes like taking public transport,
recycling using low-flow shower heads, and buying light bulbs that use less energy.
Even simple things like using recycled paper or switching off the lights when you
leave a room can help. If we add up all these small changes made by everyone worldwide,
they won’t be such small changes. They could be the changes that save our future. 英语参考答案
