A crazy food festival sounds like a joke topic but once you start looking into it, you’ll realize it’s everywhere-the crazier, the better.
1. The Bibimbap Festival
In the South Korean town of Jeonju, their “mixed rice” dish is a hearty serve of rice topped with raw beef, a rainbow of vegetables, a raw egg and gochujang sauce(韩国的辣椒酱).They take four days out of October to celebrate it.
Like any festival there’s music, entertainment and magic, but making it that little bit different is the bibimbap that’s whipped up in a big bowl by dozens of chefs and served to over 400 people.
2. Waikiki Spam Jan(怀基基午餐肉节)
Who can imagine this canned meat have so many lovers? Well, it turns out that a can of Spam is the go-to item in Hawaii, along with a grass skirt and garland(花环).
The people of Hawaii love Spam so much that they even spend a day in May serving out the best Spam, a type of cheap canned meat made mainly from pork.
3. The Bessieres Easter Egg Festival
At Eastertime, for those in the French town of Bessieres it’s all about an egg far less sweet.
Here they celebrate the holiday by getting dozens of chefs to make one large omelette(煎蛋卷)一15, 000 eggs strong—for the townsfolk(城镇居民).
4. The Potato Days Festival
This festival actually takes place in Barnesville, Minnesota(明尼苏达州), the Us.
Over the last Friday and Saturday in August the town celebrates its potato-growing skills by hosting potato picking and peeling contests, as well as a Miss Tater Tot pageant(盛典)for five-and six-year-old girls.

A bargain is something offered at a low and advantageous price. A more recent definition is: a bargain is a dirty trick to force money out of the pockets of silly and innocent people.
The cost of producing a new—for example—toothpaste would make 80p the proper price for it, so we will market it at $1.20. It is not a bad toothpaste and as people like to try new things, it will sell well to start with; but the attraction of novelty soon fades, so sales will fall. When that happens, we will reduce the price to $1.15. And we will turn it into a bargain by printing 5p OFF all over it.
Sometimes it is not 5p OFF but 1p OFF. What breathtaking rudeness to advertise 1p OFF your soap or washing powder or whatever! Even the poorest old-age pensioner ought to regard this as an insult(侮辱), but he doesn’t. A bargain must not be missed. People say one has to have washing powder (or whatever) and one might ell buy it a penny cheaper.
The real danger starts when unnecessary things become “bargains”. Many people just cannot resist bargains. Provided they think they are getting a bargain, they will buy clothes they will never wear or furniture they have no space for. Once I heard of a man who bought an electric saw as a bargain and cut off two of his fingers the next day. But he had no regrets: the saw had been truly cheap.
Quite a few people actually believe that they make money on such bargains. A lady once told me: “I’ve had a lucky day today. I bought a dress for $120, reduced from $400; and I bought a beautiful Persian carpet for $600, reduced from 900.” It will never occur to her that she has actually wasted $720. She feels as though she had made $580. She also feels, I am sure, that if she had more time for shopping, she could make a living out of it.
Some people buy in large quantities because it is cheaper. Once a couple bought enough sugar for their lifetime and the lifetime of their children and grandchildren. They thought it a bargain not to be missed. When the sugar arrived, they didn’t know where to store it—until they realized that their toilet was a very spacious one. So that was where they piled up their sugar. Not only did their guests feel rather strange whenever they were offered sugar to put into their coffee, but the toilet became extremely sticky.
To offer bargains is a commercial trick to make the poor poorer. When greedy fools fall for this trick, it serves them right.

Chinese people are, quite rightly, proud of their food. However, when foreigners like Britons and Americans think of Chinese food, their impression of it is different from what you might think.
Growing up in the UK, the Chinese food I was used to eating was food I now recognize as being from Guangdong. For example, a typical dish I would order would be pork in sweet and sour sauce, probably with some rice and spring rolls on the side. This is the type of food we generally eat because most Chinese immigrants(移民)to the UK have come from Guangdong. You can tell, because when most British people try to copy the sound of Chinese, they actually copy sound of Guangdong people—hearing the real Putonghua is sometimes a shock to them!
British attitudes to Chinese food may be changing, though. Chinese-American chef Ken Hom has been on British TV for 30 years, and he told BBC Food: “Chinese food at the beginning of the 80s (in the UK) was sweet and sour pork, mainly. Most Brits had the unchangeable view of Chinese food. Now you
are seeing more local Chinese food from Sichuan, Hunan and other areas of China. It is no longer just Guangdong food.” Similarly, to most Americans, Chinese food doesn’t go too far past orange chicken and fortune cookies, but more Chinese local dishes are becoming successful, especially in big cities like New York.
Attitudes have not quite changed completely though. Many foreigners who live in China will be familiar with this question from a relative back at home: “Have they given you dog meat yet?” Yes, perhaps because people still know too little about Chinese culture, many people believe that Chinese people love to eat dog meat. And of course, some people do eat dogs, which to Americans is like “eating a member of one’s family” according to Vision Times. Also, Chinese people eat many other things, people in the West do not—chicken claws duck heads and some animals’ organs.
But what do foreigners think when they come to China and taste real Chinese food? You’ll be glad to know that in my experience, the impressions have been very good.
8. Why are some British people surprised when they hear the real Putonghua?
A. Because it sounds too funny to believe.
B. Because it’s different from what they hear.
C. Because they all find it hard to learn.
D. Because nobody has been to China before.
9. What does chef Ken Hom think of the present Chinese food?
A. Popular.
B. Tastier.
C. Richer.
D. Best.
10. How does Paragraph 3 develop?
A. By giving example.
B. By making inferences.
C. By analyzing.
D. By reasoning.
11. What can we infer from “Have they given you dog meat yet?”fourth paragraph?
in the
A. Foreigners don’t like eating dog meat at all.
B. Chinese hate dogs so they often eat them.
C. Chinese eat everything including dog meat.
D. There are differences between cultures.
D
Teenagers in the US know they’ll probably need tech skills to land good jobs, but a new survey suggests that interest in tech careers may be decreasing(减少).
The percentage of boys aged 13 to 17 who are interested in science, technology, engineering(工程)and math—or STEM—careers dropped from 36 percent in 2017 to 24 percent this year, according to a survey by Junior Achievement USA. The amount of girls interested in STEM careers stayed unchanged at 11 percent.
But the 1, 000 survey participants still named technology as one of two key skills that would be necessary to prepare them for their future careers.
“Kids don’t understand how technology can be applied to careers outside of computers, coding(编码)and maybe robotics(机器人学),” said Tammera L. Holmes, the president of aviation consulting firm Aero Star Consulting. “That’s
all they know, so they can’t really translate that interest to career pathways(职业道路).”
When Holmes was in high school, her mom sent her to an event that featured(以……为专题)the Tuskegee Airmen, famous military(军事的)pilots from World War II. One of the pilots took her for a ride and let her take the wheel. “I was 16 years old flying over Lake Michigan, facing down the skyline, and I knew immediately that was the career for me,” she said.
Women remain outnumbered by men in fields like technology. For people working to increase the number of women in these areas, the lack of growth in girls’ interest in STEM careers is concerning.
“Teenage girls are more interested than their male classmates in pursuing(追求)careers in which they can help others, said Ed Grocholski from Junior Achievement. Even with all the programs aimed at increasing girls’ interest in STEM, “I don’t think we really talk that much about how we improve people’s lives through STEM,” said Grocholski.
“Society needs to do better at making those connections for kids, said Katherine Latham, the founder of an engineering firm. She used civil engineering(土木工程)as an example of a career that would continue to be crucial.
However, the fact that students knew they would need tech skills in their future careers was encouraging. The second skill they said they would need?
Relationship-building.
“That’s going to be the new breed(类型)of engineers,” said Latham.
12. What is the reason behind kids’ falling interest in tech careers?
A. They find tech careers too boring.
B. They find tech skills are less important than before.
C. They can’t connect their tech interest to future careers.
D. They don’t think tech careers are rewarding enough.
13. What started Holmes interest in her current career?
A. A documentary about the life of pilots.
B. A summer camp for trainee pilots.
C. Her parents’ wish for her to become a pilot.
D. Her flight experience with a pilot.
14. According to Grocholski, teenage girls are more interested in careers that ________.
A. can improve peoples’ lives
B. will make them look beautiful
C. are different from those of their parents
D. can socialize more with other people
15. What is the article mainly about?
A. The popularity of tech careers among kids and its reasons.
B. Reasons behind the change of kids’ interest in tech careers.
C. The different careers boys and girls in the US will pursue.
D. Some examples of kids pursuing tech careers successfully.

The bell rang, announcing the end of the vivid art class Karson loved most. He was delighted that he had created a very satisfying work. So he walked to the back of the classroom to put his work away carefully. There, lying on the floor in front of the classroom bookcase, was a golden ticket! Karson picked it up. His heart beat faster when he saw that the name line was blank. He couldn’t believe his luck!
The boys and girls in Karson’s class could earn golden tickets by doing well in their study or by being extra helpful or kind. Once a week their teacher drew a ticket out of the box on her desk and let the winner choose a prize.
Today was the golden ticket drawing, and here was another ticket, just for him! Karson looked around. No one else was near the ticket. All his classmates were at their desks, laughing and talking with each other. Miss Evans was engaged in grading the papers collected earlier in the morning.
Karson decided to write his name on the blank line. Then he could put it into the prize box with the six tickets he’d already earned. With so many chances, one of his tickets would most probably be picked! Then he could choose the pink toy pig for his sister’s birthday, just like he had been hoping.
He smiled and reached for the pencil in his pocket. Suddenly his fingers stopped. There was a strange feeling in his chest, and it wasn’t his heartbeat. It was “Finders, keepers”, right? He wondered. He looked out of the window and tried to figure it out. On the one hand, he did find the ticket but he hadn’t earned it. Somebody must have lost it. But on the other hand, he did need this extra ticket for his great plan!
Paragraph 1:
Karson stared at the blank name line for a moment. _______________________

1. D细节理解题。根据The Bibimbap Festival下第一段中的their “mixed rice”
dish is a hearty serve of rice topped with raw beef, a rainbow of vegetables, a raw egg and gochujang sauce(他们的“什锦饭”是一道丰盛的米饭,上面放着生牛肉、各色蔬菜、一个生鸡蛋和辣椒酱)可知,Bibimbap是米饭混合各种蔬菜等而成的,分析选项可知D项符合题意,故选D。

长难句分析
原句 Like any festival there’s music, entertainment and magic, but making it that little bit different is the bibimbap that’s whipped up in a big bowl by dozens of chefs and served to over 400 people.
分析 这是一个由but连接的并列复合句。Like any festival there’s music, entertainment and magic是一个分句,为简单句;making it that little bit different
is the bibimbap that’s whipped up in a big bowl by dozens of chefs and served to over 400 people是另一个分句,making it that little bit different为动名词短语作主语,that’s whipped up in a big bowl by dozens of chefs and served to over 400 people是that引导的定语从句。
句意 和任何节日一样,有音乐、娱乐和魔术,但让它有点那么与众不同的是由几十位厨师在一个大碗里搅拌起来的石锅拌饭,可供400多人享用。
B
语篇解读 本文是一篇议论文。文章论述了人们购物时盲目追求折扣却有可能造成不理性消费的问题。

【高频词汇】

长难句分析
原句 Provided they think they are getting a bargain, they will buy clothes they will never wear or furniture they have no space for.
分析 本句是主从复合句。Provided they think they are getting a bargain是 Provided引导的条件状语从句,they will buy clothes...是主句,they will never wear是省去that/which的定语从句,修饰clothes, they have no space for也是省去that/which的定语从句,修饰furniture。

分析 本句是主从复合句。When the sugar arrived是When引导的时间状语从

句意 当糖运来的时候,他们不知道该把它贮存在哪里直到他们意识到他们的厕所非常宽敞。
原句 Not only did their guests feel rather strange whenever they were offered sugar to put into their coffee, but the toilet became extremely sticky.
分析 这是一个由not only...but (also)…,连接的并列复合句。whenever they were offered sugar to put into their coffee是Not only连接的一个分句,Not only置于句首,句子采用了倒装形式,whenever they were offered sugar to put into their coffee是whenever引导的时间状语从句;but the toilet became extremely sticky是but (also) 连接的另一个分句。
句意 不仅每当客人们被提供糖来往咖啡里放时,他们会感到很奇怪,而且厕所也变得非常黏。

语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文,介绍了国外对中国食物的刻板印象有些已经发生变化,有些仍然存在的现象。
8. B细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句This is the type of food we generally eat
because most Chinese immigrants(移民)to the UK have come from Guangdong.

9. C推理判断题。根据第三段中的Chinese food at the beginning of the 80s(in the UK)was sweet and sour pork mainly. Most Brits had the unchangeable view of Chinese food. Now you are seeing more local Chinese food from Sichuan Hunan and other areas of China. It is no longer just Guangdong food可知, Ken Hom认为目前的中国食物应该是更丰富了,故选C。
10. A主旨大意题。第三段举了Chinese-American chef Ken Hom的例子,因此本段通过举例来阐明论点。故选A。
11. D推理判断题。根据第四段中的perhaps because people still know too little about Chinese culture可知,因为文化存在差异,外国人对中国食物的印象并未完全改变。故选D。

长难句分析
原句 And of course, some people do eat dogs, which to Americans is like “eating a member of one’s family” according to Vision Times.
分析 本句是主从复合句。And of course, some people do eat dogs是主句, which to Americans is like “eating a member of one’s family” according to
Vision Times 是which引导的非限制性定语从句,修饰整个主句。
句意 当然,有些人确实吃狗肉,据《看中国》报道,这对美国人来说就像“吃了一个家庭成员”。
D
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美国青少年对技术性职业兴趣改变的原因。
12. C推理判断题。根据第四段中的That’s all they know, so they can’t really translate that interest to career pathways(职业道路).(他们只知道那些,所以他们确实无法将那种兴趣转化为职业道路。)可推知,孩子们对技术性职业兴趣下降的原因是他们无法将自己的技术兴趣与未来的职业联系起来。故选C。
13. D细节理解题。根据第五段中的“I was 16 years old, flying over Lake Michigan, facing down the skyline, and I knew immediately that was the career for me,” she said.(他说:“当时我16岁,飞过密歇根湖上空,面朝地平线,我立刻意识到那就是我的职业。”)可知,Holmes和飞行员一起飞行的经历让她对她现在的事业产生了兴趣。故选D。

15. B主旨大意题。根据第一段Teenagers in the US know they’ll probably need tech skills to land good jobs, but a new survey suggests that interest in tech careers may be decreasing(减少).(美国青少年知道他们可能需要技术技能才能找到
好工作,但一项新的调查显示,青少年对技术性职业的兴趣可能正在下降。)及下文对该项调查的介绍可知,本文主要介绍了孩子们对技术性职业兴趣改变的原因。故选B。

分析 本句是主从复合句。The percentage of boys是主句主语,aged 13 to 17是过去分词短语作定语,修饰boys who are interested in science, technology, engineering and math—or STEM—careers是who引导的定语从句。
句意 美国青少年成就组织的一项调查显示,13至17岁的男孩中,对科学、技术、工程和数学(或称STEM)职业感兴趣的比例从2017年的36%降至今年的24%。

But if you are just starting out, you need to get there slowly.(如果你为了健康而跑步,目标是每天30分钟,那就太酷了。但是如果你只是刚开始,你需要慢慢达到那个目标。)可知,训练要量力而行,跑步不要超过你身体所能承受的距离。故选D。

19. E根据空格后一句中的And after workout or race及E项中的A good pre-run meal plan可知,文章里的after workout or race和选项E里的pre-run相对应。故选E。
20. A根据空格前一句When pain changes the way you run, stop running.(当疼痛改变了你跑步的方式时,停止奔跑。)及A项Try to find out what’s going on and treat it.(尽量找出问题并治疗它。)可知,这里的it指代前面说的pain。故选A。

Dear Bob,
I’m sorry to say that I cannot go to the bookstore with you on Friday afternoon. I have just found that I have to attend an important class meeting that afternoon. I hope the change will not cause you too much trouble.
Shall we go on Saturday morning? We can set out early so that we’ll have more time to read and select books. If it’s convenient for you, let’s meet at 8: 30 outside the school gate. If not, let me know what time suits you best. I will be available at any time on the weekend.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
Paragraph 1:
Karson stared at the blank name line for a moment. He knew his plan
wouldn’t be so great if he won with a ticket that didn’t belong to him. So he walked up to his teacher. “Miss Evans, I happened to find this ticket on the floor
near the bookcase. I think the one who lost it will look for it,” he said, dropping it on her desk. When he turned around to leave, the teacher stopped him.
Paragraph 2:
“Karson, I’d like you to have another ticket!” said Miss Evans. Karson was
amazed and wondered why. Miss Evans smiled and signed to the class to quiet down, “Karson handed in the golden ticket he had just found. I think he is honest and deserves another one!” The class burst into loud applause. Karson happily went back to his seat, eagerly expecting the ticket drawing. He still wanted his name to be picked, but he would feel OK even if it wasn’t. After all, making the right choice did make him feel great!
