第1题.
Tipping isn't a big part of British culture, unlike in North America, where waiters and waitresses are paid below minimum wage. Tips are usually appreciated, but offering a tip of some services can cause confusion.
In casual restaurants, where you pay for your order at a counter but food is brought to your table, tipping is uncommon. You are welcome to leave a pound or two if you wish. In restaurants where you place your order with a waiter or a waitress and receive your food and bill at your table, it's customary to tip around 10 percent. In some restaurants, a service charge may be added to the bill automatically, typically 10 or 12.5 percent. In this case, you don't need to add a further tip. When you pay by credit card, the machine may ask if you want to add a tip. Check your bill to see if a service charge has already been added before paying—if so you don't need to add a tip on the machine. You can request the service charge be removed from your bill if you are unhappy with the service. In some cases a restaurant may print "service not included" on the bill or menu. This is a request for a tip. You're not forced to offer anything, but 10 percent would be normal in this situation. Tipping in cafes and fast food restaurant is not expected.
If you use a taxi, round the fare up to the nearest pound shown on the meter. On a journey from or to the airport in a booked minicab you might wish to trip 2 or 3 pounds if the driver helps with your bags.
Be sure to check a country's tipping culture before you start your tip. For more information, visit .
（1）According to the text, ________ in British culture.
A: it is necessary to tip if you are served in cafes.
B: it is confusing to tip if you receive your bill at your table.
C: it is customary to tip if "service not included" is printed on the bill.

【答案】CABD
【解答】
（1）C 细节理解题。

根据第二段In some cases a restaurant may print "service not included" on the bill or menu. This is a request for a tip.在某些情况下，餐馆可能会在账单或菜单上印上不含服务费。

这是要求小费。

可知，在英国文化中，如果账单上写着不含服务费就意味着要给小费。

（2）A 细节理解题。

根据第二段When you pay by credit card, the machine may ask if you want to add a tip. Check your bill to see if a service charge has already been added before paying—if so you don't need to add a tip on the machine.当你用信用卡付账时，机器可能会问你是否要加小费。

结账前检查一下账单，看看服务费是否已经加进去了——如果是的话，你就不需要在机器上加小费了。

可知，使用信用卡买单时可以在机器上加上服务费。

（3）B 细节理解题。

根据第三段If you use a taxi, round the fare up to the nearest pound shown on the meter.如果你乘坐出租车，把车费凑整到计价器上显示的最近的英镑。

可知，如果英国的出租车计价器显示58.4英镑，你就需要支付59英镑。

（4）D 标题归纳题。

通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了在英国不同的情境下，小费给
的方式也不同。

并结合最后一段Be sure to check a country's tipping culture before you start your tip.在你开始给小费之前，一定要了解一个国家的小费文化。

可知英国人给小费的方式最适合作本文标题。

第2题.
How do you like your milk: cooked or raw? It may sound a strange question, but it's being asked more often at kitchen tables, grocery stores and farmers' markets across the US.
The vast majority of milk we drink is heat-treated to kill off harmful elements. Raw milk, on the other hand, goes straight to bottle. Fans call it milk as nature intended: nutrient-rich and full of a good kind of bacteria. Some fans go further, calling it a super food that aids digestion, benefits the immune system and treats some diseases.
An increasing number of people agree. For health-conscious, organic-loving shoppers, raw milk is a growing food trend. People feel uneasy at the thought of heated milk sitting under supermarket lighting. But despite the enthusiasm, it's a trend with a terrible side. Pasteurization
（加热杀菌）is a reason—it's highly effective at killing some harmful things that can hang, around in the body of even healthy cows. Raw milk, on the other hand, relies heavily on the skill of the farmer to avoid them.
Raw milk illnesses have increased as more people drink it. Between 2009 and 2014, raw milk and raw milk cheese caused the vast majority
（96%）of all illnesses linked to dairy products. Considering far fewer people consume it, that makes unpasteurized dairy 840 times more risky than pasteurized. The recent deaths of two people who ate raw milk cheese made in New York underscored the sometimes deadly consequences. And for young
children, whose underdeveloped immune systems make them more vulnerable
（易受伤的）, the dangers of raw milk make it hard to recommend.
（1）Why does most milk that people drink is heat-treated?
A: To add some useful elements.
B: To make it taste more delicious.
C: To make it safer for people to drink.
D: To make it have a better appearance.
（2）How may people feel seeing heat-treated milk sold in supermarkets? A: Uncomfortable.
B: Satisfied.
C: Scared.
D: Surprised.
（3）Which of the following is a reason for raw milk not being accepted? A: It's not good for people's health.
B: It may contain something harmful.
C: It's often put under market lighting.
D: It comes from unhealthy cows.
（4）What is the best title of the text?
A: Benefits of Raw Milk
B: How to Tell the Quality of Milk
C: Reasons for Choosing
Heated Milk
D: Raw Milk: a Super Food or Super Risky?
【答案】CABD
【解答】
（1）C 细节理解题。

根据第二段的The vast majority of milk we drink is heat-treated to kill off harmful bacteria...benefits the immune system and treats some diseases.我们喝的绝大多数牛奶都经过热处理以杀死有害细菌.有益于免疫系统和治疗一些疾病。

可知，大多数人喝的牛奶都是经过热处理的原因是为了让人们喝牛奶更安全。

故选C。

（2）A 细节理解题。

根据文中第三段中的People feel uneasy at the thought of heated milk sitting under supermarket lighting.人们一想到热牛奶放在超市的灯光
下就会感到不安。

可知人们看到超市里出售热处理过的牛奶不舒服。

故选A。

（3）B 推理判断题。

根据最后一段中的Raw milk illnesses have increased as more people drink it.随着越来越多的人饮用生奶，疾病也在增加。

可知，生牛奶中含有大量病毒。

故选B。

（4）D 标题归纳题。

纵观全文可知，本文主要介绍了我们喝的绝大多数牛奶都经过
热处理以杀死有害细菌，对于注重健康、热爱有机食品的购物者来说，生牛奶是一种日益增长的食品趋势，但这种趋势也有可怕的一面，生牛奶疾病也越来越多。

故可推知，本文的最好标题是生牛奶：超级食物还是超级风险？故选D。

第3题.
Being attractive isn't usually considered much of a disadvantage in today's world. Actually, there is the endless potential benefit about it, but researchers have found one area that being pretty makes life a challenge securing yourself a boring, low-paying job.
This stands in contrast to a large body of research that attractiveness, in general, helps candidates in the selection process. For the most part good looks is a blessing. We treat pretty people more favorably in general, often vote for them more in elections, and pay them more in their professions. The research suggests that attractive people may be discriminated against in selection for relatively less desirable jobs.
Researchers carried out four experiments involving more than 750 participants, including university students and managers who make hiring decisions in the real world. Participants were shown photos of two potential job candidates, one attractive and the other unattractive. Participants
were then asked a series of questions designed to measure their opinions of the job candidates and whether they would hire these candidates for a less-than-desirable job.
The less desirable jobs included a warehouse worker, housekeeper, customer service representative and the more desirable jobs included things like a manager, project director, IT elite
（精英）. In all experiments where they were asked, participants were
significantly less likely to hire the attractive candidate for the less desirable job and more likely to hire the attractive candidate for the more desirable job.
Ms Lee said, "In the selection decision for an undesirable job, decision makers were more likely to choose the unattractive individual over the attractive individual. Co-author Dr Madan Pillutla said, "It is interesting that decision makers consider others' opinions in their decisions. They thought that attractive individuals would want better outcomes, and therefore would be less satisfied, so they favored unattractive candidates when selecting for a less desirable job."
The research also suggests the established view that attractive candidates are favored when applying for jobs might be limited to high-level jobs.
（1）What do people generally think of being attractive?
A: It is a disadvantage.
B: It is a blessing.
C: It is not important.
D: It has nothing to do with jobs.
（2）What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A: The participants of the experiment.
B: The importance of the experiment.
C: The process of the experiment.
D: The result of the experiment.
（3）An ordinary-looking graduate may have an advantage when applying for ________.
A: a manager
B: a project director
C: a warehouse worker
D: an IT elite
（4）Why are less attractive applicants preferred for less desirable jobs?
A: Because they are more hardworking.
B: Because they will be more satisfied.
C: Because they have no requirements at all.
D: Because they will want better outcomes.
【答案】BCCB
【解答】
（1）B 细节理解题。

根据第二段中的For the most part good looks is a blessing.可知，在很大程度上美貌是一种福气。

由此可知人们普遍认为有吸引力是一种福气。

故选B。

（2）C 段落大意题。

根据第三段内容，特别是Participants were shown photos of two potential job candidates, one attractive and the other unattractive.研究人员向参与者展示了两张潜在求职者的照片，一张长得漂亮，另一张没有吸引力。

可知，本段主要介绍了研究人员对吸引力和求职之间的关系的实验过程。

故选C。

（3）C 推理判断题。

根据第四段中的The less desirable jobs included a warehouse worker, housekeeper, customer service representative不太理想的工作包括仓库工人、管家、客户服务代表及participants were significantly less likely to hire the attractive candidate for the less desirable job参与者很明显不太可能雇佣长相好看的候选人做不太理想的工作可知，参与者不太可能雇有吸引力的人做不那么理想的工作，而仓库管理员是不理想的工作之一，由此可知，长相一般的人在申请仓库管理员职位上有优势，故选C。

（4）B 细节理解题。

根据倒数第二段中的They thought that attractive individuals would want better outcomes, and therefore would be less satisfied, so they favored unattractive candidates when selecting for a less desirable job.他们认为长得好看的人会想要更好的结果，因此会比较不满意，所以在选择不太理想的工作时，他们青睐长相不好看的人。

可知，有吸引力的人希望更好的结果，因此不太容易满足，所以参与者在选择不那么理想的工作时更喜欢长相一般的候选人，由此可知，相貌平平的应聘者会被不太理想的工作所青睐，是因为他们更容易满足。

故选B。

可知，阅读标题是阅读的最后一步也是很重要的，E项：因此，把标题作为阅读后的最后一步。

第6题.
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

New research suggests that our DNA helps us to decide whether we prefer coffee or tea. Researchers from the University of Queensland in Australia studied how our genes affected our taste. Following the research, they believe they know why some of us prefer coffee（1）________ others like tea more. The researchers found that people who like bitter tastes are more likely（2）
________（drink）coffee. The researchers said they found something（3）

Researchers looked at data on more than 400,000 men and women in the United Kingdom. They also looked at（6）________ Australian study that compared the tastes of 1,757 twins with their siblings. The researchers said genes aren't the only factors（7）________（affect）people's tastes. Other things（8）________ our changing environment, social factors or the effects of taking medicine can also turn us on or off coffee or tea. The researchers said we can learn to like coffee. Dr Liang-Dar Hwang said, "Bitter taste perception （感知）（9）________（shape）not only by genetics, but also environmental factors. Even though humans（10）________（natural）dislike bitterness, we can learn to like or enjoy bitter-tasting food after being exposed to environmental factors."
【答案】'
（1）but', '
（2）to drink', '
（3）that', '
（4）sensitive', '
（5）studies', '
（6）an', '
（7）affecting', '
（8）like', '
（9）is shaped', '
（10）naturally'
【解答】
（1）but 考查连词。

句意：根据这项研究，他们认为了解了为什么有的人更喜欢咖啡，而有的人更喜欢茶。

这里需要表转折关系的连词。

故填but。

（2）to drink 考查非谓语动词。

句意：研究人员发现喜欢苦味的人们更有可能喝咖啡。

be likely to do sth.意为有可能做某事。

故填to drink。

（3）that 考查定语从句。

句意：研究人员称发现研究中有些东西很奇怪。

分析句子结构可知，空处填引导词来引导定语从句，先行词为不定代词something，从句缺少主语且为事物属性，只能用that。

故填that。

（4）sensitive 考查形容词。

句意：对于咖啡因的苦味更加敏感的人喜欢咖啡甚于茶。

be sensitive to意为对……感到敏感。

故填sensitive。

（5）studies 考查名词。

句意：这一发现与前几次研究的结论是一致的。

这里study 是名词研究的意思，是可数名词且由several来修饰，要用复数形式。

故填studies。

（6）an 考查冠词。

句意：他们也看了一项澳大利亚的研究，比照了1757对双胞胎的口味。

此处泛指一项澳大利亚的研究，且Australian的发音以元音音素开头，要用不定冠词an。

故填an。

（7）affecting 考查非谓语动词。

句意：研究表明基因并非影响人们口味的唯一因素。

根据句子结构可知，affect与其所修饰的名词factor构成逻辑上的主谓关系，要用现在分词作定语。

故填affecting。

（8）like 考查介词。

句意：其他东西，诸如我们不断改变的环境、社会因素乃至服用药品的效果也会对我们选择茶或咖啡有影响。

这里是对其他因素的几个列举，要用介词like表示像……。

故填like。

（9）is shaped 考查一般现在时的被动语态。

句意：苦味的感知不只是由基因塑造的，也与环境因素有关。

主语taste perception和动词shape之间是被动关系，而此处描述的是一个客观情况，故使用一般现在时的被动语态be+动词的过去分词。

主语为不可数名词，be动词用is。

故填is shaped。

（10）naturally 考查副词。

句意：即使人们天生不喜欢苦味，我们也可以学着喜欢或享受苦味食品。

这里natural修饰动词dislike，要用副词形式。

故填naturally。

第8题.
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Two things changed my life: my mother and a white plastic bike basket. I have thought long and hard about it and it's true. I would be a different person if my mom hadn't turned a silly bicycle basket into a life lesson I carry with me today.
Managing the family budget must have been a very hard task, but my mother made it look easy. If we complained about not having what another kid did, we'd hear something like, "I don't care what so-and-so got for his birthday; you are not getting a TV in your room, a car for your birthday or an expensive birthday party." We had to earn our pocket money by doing the housework. I can still remember how long it took to shine the legs of our coffee table. My brothers can no doubt remember hours spent cleaning the house. We made our own beds（no one left the house until that was done）. We had to keep track of our belongings, and if something was lost, it was not replaced.
It was summer and, one day, my mother drove me to the bike shop to get a tire fixed—and there it was in the window. White, shiny, plastic and decorated with flowers, the basket blinked（眨眼）at me and I knew—I knew—I had to have it.
"It's beautiful," my mother said when I pointed it out to her. "What a
nice basket."
I played it cool for a short while. But then I guess I couldn't stand it any longer: "Mom, please can I please, please get it? I'll do extra chores for as long as you say. I'll do anything, but I need that basket. I love that basket. Please, Mom. Please?"
"You know," she said, gently rubbing my back while we both stared at what I believed was the coolest thing ever, "If you save up you could buy this yourself."
"By the time I make enough it'll be gone!"
"Maybe Roger here could hold it for you," she smiled at Roger, the bike store owner.
"He can't hold it for that long, Mom. Someone else will buy it. Please, Mom, please?"
"There might be another way," she said.
