Many young people would like to make a booth（货摊）to do business on the street in the name of entrepreneurship（创业精神）and sell lemon. It might seem like an easy sell-kids offering cool drinks. Some entrepreneurs offer their tips on how to make money from this.
Joe Mansueto, founder of the investment company Morningstar, sold lemonade as a kid. "You should always pay attention to customers," he said. "When somebody's walking down the street, get out from behind the booth, greet them, talk to them and just make friends with them to attract more customers."
However, his two sons decided to sell a different drink. When they were 8 and 10, his boys sold cocoa outside their home. The great thing about business is that there are really no rules. You can be creative and try something different, Mansueto said.
But it wasn't enough for US representative Mike Quigley and his older brother to sell drinks. They sold old books at the booth and would rent them out for customers to read while they enjoyed their drinks.
Adam Ochstein, founder of StratEx Partners, a human resources service company, gave frequent visitors cards which were printed with a lemon. Every five drinks, customers got one card which allowed them to pay less than half of the next drink.
However, they didn't price the drinks. "If you want to give nothing, give nothing. If you want to give $2, give $2. I think we had let the adults give more money than they probably would like to, "Today, he suggests kids use social media for marketing. He said, "It can tell people where the booth is going to be and what unique specials you're running."
4. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. How to set up a big company.
B. How to attract more customers.
C. How to make friends with others.
D. How to tell apart rich customers.
5. How did Mike Quigley make his booth different from the others?
A. By selling cocoa outside their home.
B. By renting used books to the customers.
C. By making friends with his customers.
D. By lending new books to his customers.
6. What advice about the booth does Ochstein give to kids?
A. Giving visitors free drinks
B. Giving visitors cards with a lemon
C. Taking advantage of social media
D. Allowing customers to pay less money
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. Street business
B. Marketing fashion
C. Service culture
D. Social activities
【答案】4. B 5. B 6. C 7. A
【解析】

细节理解题就是我们常见的wh-题，它们大多是根据文章中的具体信息如事实、例证、原因、过程、论述等进行提问的。

抓住文段中的事实和细节是做好该题型的关键，也是做好其它类型问题的基础。

该题型几乎都可以在文章中直接找到与答案有关的信息，或是其变体。

在一篇短文里大部分篇幅都属于这类围绕主体展开的细节，做这类题一般采用寻读法，即先读题，然后带着问题快速阅读短文，找出与问题和选项有关的词语或句子，再对相关部分进行分析对比，找出答案。

例如小题2，答案定位在倒数第二段They sold old books at the booth and would rent them out for customers to read while they enjoyed their drinks.可知通过把用过的书租给顾客，Mike Quigley使他的摊位与众不同，故选B。

Little boys don't like reading any more and even little girls don' t enjoy it as much as they once did: this is the accepted wisdom inside the book industry –and in many British families, too. Parents and booksellers tend to blame the growing appeal of online entertainment and handheld games, but research from the US is challenging these assumptions.
Michael Norris, an American publishing expert, will release findings in the monthly Book Publishing Report which show that, despite the best intentions, it is well-meaning mothers and fathers who often stop their sons and daughters from picking up the reading habit.
Parents have too much of a role in deciding which books their child is going to read," said Norris. It is turning children off. "
The results of a number of surveys Norris has carried out with hundreds of American booksellers over the past year have provided the basis for a series of tips for parents designed to help children find enjoyment in books.
0ne of his tips is to make sure children talk directly to a librarian or a book seller, while parents stand well back. Parents should allow children to choose their own reading material. Even if a mother or father is just standing with the child when the bookseller asks them what they like to read, we have found that the child will give an answer they think their parent wants to hear. It will not be the same answer they would give alone, said Norris.
Norris said, “What we have found is that parents should not worry whether a title looks too young or too old for a child. If it is children’s favorite book, then let them take it.” Childr en, added Norris, often enjoy reading books that are easy for then let them take it.” Children, added Norris, often enjoy reading books that are easy for them to understand. “My father made me read The Hunt for Red October by Tom Clancy when I was much too young, which, I think, was totally wrong, and I have never read another Clancy since,” said Norris.
8. What did Norris think prevents children from enjoying reading?
A. Children’s interest in handheld games
B. The declining market of the book industry
C. Parents’ influence on children’s book selection
D. The growing popularity of online entertainment
9. What do we know about the new study?
A. It is meaningless
B. It mainly focuses on British families
C. It is published to improve book sales
D. It is mainly carried out by Norris
10. What should parents do to help kids get their favorite books at bookstore?
A. Introduce new books regularly
B. Discuss popular books with their children
C. Let children choose books for themselves
D. Often seek expert advice from booksellers
11. What did Norris think of his father’s act?
A. It showed parents’ worries about kids
B. It made him love reading
C. It was quite necessary
D. It was totally wrong
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. C 11. D

Public Health England（PHE）is targeting pizzas, ready meals, ready meat and takeaways. The government has also required the food industry to start using healthier food and encourage the public to opt for lower calorie foods.
It is all part of an effort to cut calorie（卡路里）intake by 20% by 2024. The target will point to 13 different food groups, which are equal to about a fifth of the calorie taken by children. If action is not taken, PHE said, it would be prepared to ask the government to pass laws.
PHE would be strictly monitoring progress by looking at which products people were buying and would be prepared to punish companies which do not take their duties. The government is also organizing a program encouraging adults to consume
（消耗）400 calories at breakfast and 600 each at lunch and dinner.
At present, adults consume between 200 and 300 calories more than they should each day. PHE chief nutritionist Dr. Alison Tedstone said the 400-600-600 tip would make it easier for people to make healthier choices" by being able to judge what they should be eating in each sitting.
How many calories should we eat? It is suggested that women eat no more than 2,000 calories a day, while men should limit their intake to 2,500. For children, it depends on age. A four-year-old should consume no more than 1,300, while for teens aged 17 and 18, it is about 3,000, but overweight children are eating up to 500 calories more than that.
Prof Russell Viner, of the Royal College of Pediatrics and Child Health, said it was a necessary move. He said, “Over the past 40years, there had been a slow growth in food sizes, with pizzas and hamburgers simply much bigger than they were in our parents' time," The convenience of fast food at pocket money prices and the advertisement of unhealthy food and drinks to children add to the problem.
12. What does the underlined word “opt” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Choose
B. Sell
C. Refuse
D. Inspect
13. What will happen to a company if it encourages high calorie food?
A. It will be punished by customers
B. It will be forced to stop producing foods
C. It will be punished by Public Health England
D. It will be asked to throw away all the food
14. Who should take in the most calories?
A. Babies aged 4
B. Teens aged 18
C. Woman
D. Men
15. What can be learned from the text?
A. The government has passed laws about using healthier food
B. PHE is concerned about the British health problems
C. Men should eat no more than 2,000 calories
D. Hamburgers are not bigger than before
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. B
【解析】

【点睛】完形填空是高考英语中最难的一个题，正确解答完形填空题是考试成功至关重要的保障。

完形填空所选的文章都是具有逻辑关系、意义相连的语篇，因此，在行文中不可避免地会出现词语的复现、前后同义或反义、相互照应等现象。

所以，解题时应联系上下文寻找相关线索，如某一个词的原词、指代词、同义词、近义词、上义词、下义词和概括词等。

完形填空的解题方法很多，而词汇复现法
就是最常见的方法之一。

词汇复现包括原词复现、同义词复现、同根词复现、概括词复现以及结构复现等。

本题中的1小题中的pressure；3小题中的idea；19小题中的dream等都采用了同义词或原词复现的方法。

但由于我们在做题时不可能总是重复地阅读文章，因此，在做完形填空时要培养一种捕捉并记忆相关信息的能力。
