21、 There are only a few truly pleasant smells to wake up to in the morning. For me, it's the smell of freshly brewed coffee. Just a sniff of it makes me jump out of bed and rush to the kitchen for a gulp of the hot black liquid.
If you're a big fan of coffee, you'll understand that opening a new packet of coffee releases an amazing smell-fresh, roasted coffee beans. And you'll be able to identify the beans' origin-Colombia, Vietnam or Brazil. Tim Hayward is a food writer and coffee shop owner; he believes the smell "is absolutely vital. When you walk into the coffee shop in the morning and that smell hits you, you're getting physiological(生理上的) responses. "
I know from experience when I walk into a cafe, my mouth begins to water and it's the smell that makes me feel good. However, this feeling sometimes turns to disappointment. This is particularly the case when I order a coffee to go in a tall paper cup and sip the liquid through a hole in the lid. Yes, it's convenient, but is it really the right way to appreciate it?
You walk into the coffee shop, you get the smell, but when you actually take the drink out, you are drinking it from something that is designed to deliver the hot liquid directly past your tongue, but prevent any smell coming up to your nose. As well as eliminating the smell, takeaway coffee cups create a lot of waste and a vast majority of them still don't get recycled. So maybe now is the time to really wake up and smell the coffee by drinking from a cup in a cafe, chatting with friends and saving the planet!
【1】In which aspect does the author agree with Tim Hayward?
A. People drink coffee first thing in the morning.
B. Coffee beans' origin makes all the differences.
C. Some people are addicted to drinking coffee
D. It's the smell of coffee that really matters.
【2】What does the author complain about?
A. The process of making coffee.
B. The high temperature of coffee
C. The design of the paper coffee cup.
D. The inconvenience of buying coffee.
【3】What can replace the word "eliminating" underlined in Paragraph 4?
A. Creating. B. Removing. C. Increasing. D. Changing.
【4】What can be the best title of the text?
A. Wake up and smell the coffee
B. Try to be a real lover of coffee
C. Drink coffee to save the planet
D. Choose takeaway coffee for convenience
22、When restaurants first shut down early in the pandemic, Americans raided grocery stores. They started cooking more at home — and, probably, producing more leftovers. Those leftovers can be a convenient future meal — but they’ve got a dark side, too.
“There’s a tendency that if you put an item on a plate that’s a leftover, there’s a higher probability that you’re not going to fully consume that item. And so it’s probably going to waste.”
With his colleagues, Brian Roe, an applied economist at the Ohio State University, recently studied leftovers and food waste by tracking the eating habits of 18 men and women in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The participants tracked what they ate using an iPhone app. And during the week-long study, the study subjects totally piled 1,200 different foods on their plates.
After analyzing what got eaten, saved or thrown away, the researchers found that leftovers were more likely to be picked at and not fully eaten — a finding we can all probably identify with.
But they also observed that leftovers — perhaps due to being older and less fresh — directed diners’ attention to the other, more novel items on their plate, which brings up an interesting possible strategy to get people to eat their veggies.
“I guess if you have an item that you don’t eat normally and you’re trying to get people to eat it, perhaps surrounding it with leftovers is a way to make them focus on the newest item on the plate.”
Overall, Roe says one bigger lesson appeared on how to avoid throwing food into the dustbin.
“For us, the real take-home here was: all else equal, choose a smaller meal, and you’re less likely to generate leftovers. And that’s a good thing because leftovers, all else equal, tend to be wasted more often.
“I’m guilty of this myself: we have things left over from last Thanksgiving still sitting in our freezer. And I know people who’ve moved with frozen items before — without ever getting around to eating them.”
【1】What’s the disadvantage of the leftovers?
A．Leading to bad habits.
B．Tendency towards waste.
C．Lack of deliciousness.
D．Causing a feeling of guilt.
【2】What is Roe’s suggestion for people to avoid leftovers?
A．Trying to cook less generally.
B．Putting the food in the fridge.
C．Cooking more vegetables.
D．Dining with a phone in hand.
【3】Why did Roe feel guilty of himself?
A．He moved with frozen food.
B．He threw leftovers in the dustbin.
C．He had some leftovers uneaten.
D．He always cooked more dishes.
【4】What is the text mainly about?
A．Americans cooked more in the pandemic.
B．More researches should be done on waste.
C．Good eating habits can make you healthy.
D．Leftovers are actually a food-waste problem.
23、Nobody ever imagined that after being lost for more than half a century the intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) known as Gaolou Mixian would be restored and passed down by a young man. “ As someone of Gaolou origin, I have a responsibility to restore our ancestors’ art form, ” said Chen Guorui, the world’s only inheritor (继承人) of this ancient art.
Gaolou Mixian uses rice paste to glue together selected grains of transparent (透明的) rice to create realistic figures or structures. It is a unique folk art that developed during the Qing Dynasty and reached its peak during the first half of the 20th century. Each household in Gaolou village would make rice structures that they put on display in their ancestral halls (祠堂) during the Chinese New Year, which attracted people from all sides.
However, due to the wet weather in southern China, these rice-made artworks would only last three to four months before losing their shape. It is for this reason that these works are not seen in museums in China. Due to various historical reasons, most people in Gaolou village did not pass down the art form, which caused it to disappear nearly 70 years ago.
Chen found out about this after hearing one former resident express disappointment about its loss. Curious, he started to do research and tried out the methods he heard about from older people in the village. After several months of exploration, Chen finally completed his first successful work.
Over the past five years, Chen has gradually improved his skills and even begun using new techniques, such as making some colorful artworks with colored grains of rice. Since 2017, people at home and abroad have taken an interest in this long-lost art form. To avoid being the last inheritor, Chen has been giving classes to some students at a primary school in Fuzhou with the support of local education authorities.
【1】What do we know about Gaolou Mixian?
A．It is stable in wet environment.
B．It is mainly made of rice.
C．It is a popular art form nationwide.
D．It was created for religious reasons.
【2】What does the underlined word “ this ” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A．The techniques of the artworks.
B．The disappearance of the art form.
C．The disappointment of the villagers.
D．The reasons for shape loss of the artworks.
【3】Which of the following can best describe Chen Guorui?
A．Cooperative and kind.
B．Outstanding and calm.
C．Courageous and cautious.
D．Responsible and creative.
【4】What message does Chen’s story convey to us?
A．It’s never too old to learn.
B．Strike while the iron is hot.
C．It is no use crying over spilt milk.
D．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
