2022-2023热点时事话题阅读练习66专题(高考模拟+名校真题)专题43 饮食习俗Passage 1（2019·全国·高考真题）Marian Bechtel sits at West Palm Beach’s Bar Louie counter by herself, quietly reading her e-book as she waits for her salad. What is she reading? None of your business! Lunch is Bechtel’s “me” time. And like more Americans, she’s not alone.A new report found 46 percent of meals are eaten alone in America. More than half(53 percent) have breakfast alone and nearly half(46 percent) have lunch by themselves. Only at dinnertime are we eating together anymore, 74 percent, according to statistics from the report.“I prefer to go out and be out. Alone, but together, you know?” Bechtel said, looking up from her book. Bechtel, who works in downtown West Palm Beach, has lunch with coworkers sometimes, but like many of us, too often works through lunch at her desk. A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on the shoulder. She returns to work feeling energized. “Today, I just wanted some time to myself,” she said.Just two seats over, Andrew Mazoleny, a local videographer, is finishing his lunch at the bar. He likes that he can sit and check his phone in peace or chat up the barkeeper with whom he’s on a first-name basis if he wants to have a little interaction(交流). “I reflect on how my day’s gone and think about the rest of the week,” he said. “It’s a chance for self-reflection. You return to work recharged and with a plan.”That freedom to choose is one reason more people like to eat alone. There was a time when people may have felt awkward about asking for a table for one, but those days are over. Now, we have our smartphones to keep us company at the table. “It doesn’t feel as alone as it may have before all the advances in technology,” said Laurie Demeritt, whose company provided the statistics for the report.1．What are the statistics in paragraph 2 about?A．Food variety.B．Eating habits.C．Table manners.D．Restaurant service.2．Why does Bechtel prefer to go out for lunch?A．To meet with her coworkers.B．To catch up with her work.C．To have some time on her own.D．To collect data for her report.3．What do we know about Mazoleny?A．He makes videos for the bar.B．He’s fond of the food at the bar.C．He interviews customers at the bar.D．He’s familiar with the barkeeper.4．What is the text mainly about?A．The trend of having meals alone.B．The importance of self-reflection.C．The stress from working overtime.D．The advantage of wireless technology.Passage 2（2022·湖南·模拟预测）If you follow luxury resorts (度假地) or travel influencers on Instagram, odds are good that you’ve seen at least one “floating breakfast”.In case you’re not familiar with them, here’s what to know: they’re your typical hotel room service breakfast-think toast, fruit, coffee and the like — served in a pool instead of in bed. Usually, they’re placed on large plates or colorful baskets, then accessorized (配饰) with bright tropical flowers to make them even more photogenic.These breakfasts are particularly popular in Asia and the Pacific, especially at warm-weather private flat resorts in places like Thailand, Fiji and the Maldives.Nearly everyone agrees that the trend began in Bali, although no specific resort seems to get the credit for coming up with the idea first.While these breakfasts have become more common on resort menus over the last five years, the coronavirus pandemic has made them more popular than ever as hotel guests are avoiding buffets and public dining rooms.“Across the course of the past year, in-suite dining has become extremely popular, especially for those seeking comfort in the safety and their room,” Jann Hess, general manager at Amanjiwo in Bali. “The floating breakfast is a popular choice.”After all, the floating breakfast needs a pool to float in — and a private pool is a muchbetter choice than a shared pool where a splashing (飞溅的) kid might make the whole thing topple over.Though the gorgeous colors and dramatic plating of floating breakfasts make them perfect for social media, asking people to stand in the pool before they’ve fully woken up or had caffeine seems like a potential recipe for disaster.James Booth, a Sydney-based reporter, tells that, for him, the special meal worked better in concept. Though Booth had pre-scheduled a specific time for the breakfast to arrive, he ended up oversleeping about 20 minutes, meaning he’d missed the optimal window for consuming it.5．What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us?A．What “floating breakfast” is like.B．Why “floating breakfast” is popular. C．What you should know in luxury resorts.D．How we can enjoy “floating breakfast”. 6．Why does the coronavirus pandemic make “floating breakfast” more popular?A．It provides a more healthy diet.B．People avoid meeting in groups.C．It saves a lot of money to eat out.D．People wants to try the new trend. 7．What does the underlined word “optimal” in the last paragraph mean?A．Small.B．Broad.C．Open.D．Most ideal. 8．What is a suitable title for the text?A．How floating breakfast develops B．Two sides of floating breakfast C．Floating breakfast, a popular trend D．Reasons why floating breakfast comes upPassage 3（2021·福建厦门·三模）When you think of Chinese food in the U.S., fried rice, or General Tso’s chicken may first come to mind. But a new museum exhibition in New York City is trying to expand visitors’ palates (味蕾). It features stories of famous cooks like Martin Yan and home cooks whose food represents18 different regional cooking styles of China.“I think it’s unfair to just classify Chinese cooking as one,” says Kian Lam Kho, a co- curator (策展人) of “Sour, Sweet, Bitter, Spicy: Stories of Chinese Food and Identity in America” at the Museum of Chinese in America.“Even with the same dish or same cuisine, every family has a different variation." That’s why the curators say if you want to taste the full range of Chinese cuisine in the U.S, you’ll need to go beyond restaurants and into homekitchens, which can play a central role in many immigrants’ lives.“The kitchen itself is kind of a comfort when you come to a new country. That’s the one place where you set up as your home base, and you cook things that you remember from your past,” explains co-curator Audra Ang.One of the home cooks showcased in the exhibition is Ni Biying, 80, of Manhattan. She worked as a live-in babysitter for years before she could finally afford to rent a home with her own kitchen. These days, you can usually find her moving around her one-bedroom apartment as a sweet smell of vinegar and rice wine floats from her stove. For Ni, a small dinner for friends and family means preparing almost a dozen different dishes. She learned some of her techniques from her father, who made most of her family’ s meals when she was a child.“I still make the beef with stir-fried celery my father used to cook," she says. And it’s the kind of comfort food that defines Chinese food for Ni.9．What is the new museum exhibition mainly about?A．Stories of Chinese food and cooks.B．Exploration of famous restaurants. C．History of Chinese immigration.D．Cuisine of different countries. 10．Why does the kitchen play a key role in many immigrants’ lives?A．It provides a wealthy life.B．It helps them to accept new cultures. C．It brings a sense of belonging.D．It enables them to forget the past. 11．What can we learn about Ni Biying from paragraph 4?A．She worked in a Chinese restaurant.B．She made most meals as a child. C．She learned cooking from her father.D．She lives with a big family. 12．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Chinese Restaurant Tells Immigrant TalesB．Home Cooking Brings More to the TableC．Immigrants Seek their Fortune in the U.S.D．Cuisine Gains New VariationsPassage 4（2021·江苏连云港·二模）A short cooking video posted by a netizen on Tiktok has recently become a popular hit on the site. Bearing the tag “Chinese food”, the video not only showed off the chief’s superb skills in making Chinese dishes, but it also got netizens abroad wanting to get a taste of China’s unique food culture.Although the video was nothing master-level, just a rather standard homemade friedpotato dish, it received more than 200,000 likes after only three days of posting. In addition to praising the chef, commenters wondered why such a simple Chinese dish could look like a fancy cuisine that had been made through tons of effort. “Even the most basic Chinese dish needs to have three elements: color, smell and taste. For example, color not only requires a chef to have sharp eyes, but also valuable experience,” said Wang, an experienced Chinese chef in Guangzhou.Chinese cooking is not the only type of content covered by the tag. Other popular videos under the tag include “odd food” challenges, traditional Chinese dishes and Chinese snack tasting, the latter of which has become particularly popular among young omnivore vloggers (video bloggers)living in a world of continually expanding cultural globalization.“I have been a fan of Chinese food ever since my Chinese friend cooked me di san xian at university. I was surprised by the dish’s taste and its look, which was very different from my home food, but felt it was very familiar to me because I noticed we share similar cooking skills,” said Bianca, an Italian Asian food fan.“I started my channel by recording my roommate tasting my cooking. These videos got likes and comments gradually. Seeing some people commenting in German or English and saying ‘I want to try it’, I felt these videos can narrow the gap between the two cultures,” said Mr. Bear, a vlogger on Bilibili who promotes Chinese cooking.13．What does the underlined word “omnivore” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A．People eating meat.B．People eating vegetables.C．People eating diverse food.D．People eating Chinese food.14．What does Bianca think of Chinese food?A．Common and dear.B．Special and familiar.C．Weird and delicious.D．Similar and disconnected.15．What does Mr. Bear mean in the last paragraph?A．The majority of his fans tasted the food he cooked.B．His roommate encouraged him to cook Chinese food.C．He is an expert determined to become a Chinese chef.D．His videos make a difference to cultural communication.16．What can we learn from the passage?A．Chinese culture has aroused people’s interest overseas.B．The video is more master-level than a standard homemade.C．Basic Chinese dish has three elements: color, smell and taste.D．Chinese cooking has become popular among young vloggers.Passage 5（2021·山东青岛·一模）For many Chinese consumers, a satisfying breakfast is one that includes either hot porridge or steamed buns. Cold sandwiches, which are usually popular with Westerners, are probably one of the last options on their minds. But that is not to say that consumers, especially those in an international city like Shanghai, would avoid everything considered Western for breakfast. For instance, coffee, which has steadily grown in popularity in the country, is one drink that many cannot do without today.To satisfy this growing demand for breakfast sets that combine elements from the East and the West, food companies have been rolling out a host of new offerings to attract the customer. One example is Shanghai Qiao Coffee, which was launched by local time-honored food company Qiaojiashan at the end of 2019. Apart from its traditional dim sum, the store also sells various types of coffee.According to Shen Yan, deputy manager of Shanghai Qiaojiashan Food Development Cold, the most popular breakfast set at the moment is the steamed vegetable bun paired with black coffee. “The calories that one gets from a meal featuring Chinese dim sum and coffee are less than those of a Western breakfast. Since a steamed bun has nearly 200 calories and a cup of black coffee barely has any calories, this combination can be considered healthy and delicious," said Shen.Even the smaller shoppers in the food scene are jumping on the East-West breakfast trend. Western food establishments, too, have been rolling out Chinese breakfast options. "Consumers and even cultural heritage will also benefit from the increased competition. If not for the current trend which has revived interest in certain traditional dim sum, these foods could soon be lost to history," Shen said.17．What can we leant about breakfast in Shanghai in paragraph!?A．People prefer porridge and steamed buns.B．Cold sandwiches are a popular choice. C．People avoid western food for breakfast.D．Coffee is a must for many people.18．Why does the set of the steamed vegetable bun with black coffee sell well? A．Because it's newly launched.B．Because it contains more vegetables. C．Because it's traditional.D．Because it's tasty and healthy. 19．What can we learn from Shen's words in the last paragraph?A．The competition for breakfast sets is of no benefit to consumers.B．Only big companies have the ability to seize the market share.C．Western food companies don't care about East-West breakfast.D．Some traditional foods might disappear without the combination trend.20．What docs the author intend to tell us?A．Chinese consumers show more interest in western food.B．Western breakfast is warmly welcomed by Shanghai people.C．The Chinese-Western breakfast set is becoming a hit in Shanghai.D．Shanghai Qiao Coffee has won great success for its breakfast sets.Passage 6（2021·江苏·盐城中学二模）I told my husband the topic of this essay and asked him, “As a British person, why do the British like tea?”His answer was, “Tea fixes everything."For the British, tea is a substitute for emotions. The money that an American would dedicate to counseling or therapy to deal with childhood trauma (创伤），the British instead spend on tea bags, tea pots, tea cups and tea towels.Tea is the only outlet that the British have for strong emotion, outside of football teams and alcohol. If your co-workers annoy you, you can't very well get drunk to cope with it, so tea is the substitute. The ceremony of boiling water and adding sugar and milk in a specific order based on religiously-held personal preferences is calming and allows the type of repetitive action that comforts the British mind and helps them to suppress their feelings. Calmly sipping a cup of hot tea is a proper therapeutic and British way of dealing with emotion. If someone starts to get angry at you or if they express sadness or another emotion that is uncomfortable to deal with, rather than talking about it, a British person will put the kettle on. It is a convenient way of changing the subject to one that all British people can agree on: tea.I am married to a British man, and we have never had an argument that didn't end in him offering to make a cup of tea. I've never entered a British house without receiving an offer of tea. Tea is social bonding. If you reject tea, you are rejecting Britain. For the British, the ideaof not wanting tea is nearly incomprehensible. For the British, if you don't want tea, you don't want life. They really believe that tea fixes everything.21．What will he do if a British man gets angry?A．He will drown his anger in tea.B．He will keep his anger in mind.C．He will go to the pub for a drink.D．He will express his anger directly.22．Why does the British like tea so much?A．They like the taste of it.B．It's a way of killing time.C．It helps them to calm down.D．The tea boiling ceremony is a pleasure.23．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A．Tea helps the British to socialize.B．Tea costs the British too much time.C．You can reject the offered tea in Britain.D．The author never argued with her husband.24．What's the main purpose of the author?A．Her family life in Britain.B．Why the British like tea.C．How the British drink tea.D．Her husband's love for tea.Passage 7（2021·湖北·湘潭县一中模拟预测）We love food and drink. We love to celebrate the good stuff and criticize the bad. This is our take on the top three food cultures and destinations. It’s time to find out once and for all, which cuisine is king as you plan where you’ll travel next:No. 3 FranceYou can spend an entire two-week vacation exploring combinations of wines and cheeses around the country.YumEscargot — credit the French for turning garden-dwelling pests into a delicacy.Massive respect for making them taste amazing too.Baguette — the first and last thing that you’ll want to eat in France. The first bite is superb; the last will be full of longing.DumbFoie gras — it tastes like 10,000 ducks roasted in butter then reduced to a velvet pudding.No. 2 ChinaThe people who greet each other with “Have you eaten yet?” are arguably the most food-obsessed in the world. The Chinese almost cook and sell anything, and they also make it taste great.YumSweet and sour pork — a guilty pleasure that has taken on different forms.Dim sum — a grand tradition from Hong Kong to New York. The best to start a day as breakfast.DumbShark’s fin soup — calling for Chinese restaurants to ban the dish has been a goal of green campaigners in recent years.No. 1 ItalyItalian food has enslaved taste-buds around the globe for centuries, with its tomato sauces, and those clever things they do with wheat flour and desserts .YumPizza —simple yet satisfying dish. Staple diet of bachelors and college students. Coffee — cappuccino is for breakfast? Forget it. We want it all day and all night.DumbBuffalo mozzarella — those balls of water buffalo milk. The flavor’s so subtle you have to imagine it.25．Which food would you not try as an environmentalist?A．Shark’s fin soup B．Foie grasC．Sweet and sour pork D．Escargot26．Which will be the best choice for hungry students in Italy?A．Pizza B．Coffee C．Buffalo mozzarella D．Desserts 27．Which will be the best breakfast?A．Cappuccino B．Baguette C．Cheese D．Dim sum Passage 8（2020·青海海东·一模）A new study suggests drinking coffee as soon as someone wakes up from a poor night's sleep greatly affects metabolism (新陈代谢) and blood sugar control.In the study, published in the British Journal of Nutrition, UK researchers let 29 healthy men and women take part in three different overnight experiments. In the first two scenes, participants were given a sugary drink upon waking-first from a normal night's sleep, and then again after a poor night's sleep during which they were woken up for five minutes every hour. In the third, their sleep was similarly disrupted, but they were given a strong black coffee 30 minutes before consuming the sugary drink.Blood samples from participants were taken following the sugary drink, which mirrored the calories of a typical breakfast, in each experiment. Results showed that one night of disrupted sleep did not worsen the participants' blood sugar responses at breakfast when compared to a normal night of sleep. However, strong black coffee consumed before breakfast in-creased the blood sugar response by around 50 percent.By drinking such kind of drink after breakfast, UK researchers found that our bodies' ability to break down our food healthily is completely improved. Examining the effects of bro-ken sleep and. morning coffee across a range of different metabolic markers, scientists at the University of Bath found that, while one night of poor sleep had a limited effect on metabolism, drinking coffee before breakfast could have a negative effect on blood sugar control.“We know that nearly half of us will wake in the morning and, before doing anything else, drink coffee—the more tired we feel, the stronger the coffee is. This study is important and has far-reaching health influences, and it indeed moves some coffee drinkers' heartstrings. As up to now we have had limited knowledge about what this is doing to our bodies, in particular for our metabolic and blood sugar control, so we have a long way to go.” said Professor James Betts, co-director of the Centre for Nutrition, Exercise and Metabolism at the University of Bath.28．How did UK researchers get the result of the experiment?A．By assumption.B．By making comparisons.C．By questionnaire.D．By consulting journals.29．What can we learn from the experiment?A．One night of poor sleep surely affects blood sugar.B．Drinking coffee after breakfast does harm to health.C．Having strong drinks has a good effect on metabolism.D．Drinking coffee at different time has different effects on health. 30．What does James Betts think of the study?A．It makes no sense.B．It is limited and blind. C．It remains to be continued.D．It is particular and explicit. 31．What can be the best title for the text?A．How. Much Coffee to Drink MattersB．Does Coffee Really Wake Up an Appetite?C．Drinking Coffee before Breakfast Harms MetabolismD．How Does Drinking Black Coffee Affect People's Sleep?参考答案：1．B2．C3．D4．A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。

Following an opening performance depicting the autumnequinox, one of China's 24 solar terms that celebrates the harvest season, over 50,000 spectatorsburstinto cheers as Xi announced the opening of the Hangzhou Games, making the Zhejiang provincial capital the third Chinese city to host the continental sporting gala, following Beijing in 1990 and Guangzhou in 2010.With the giant floor screen lighting the way, the athletes' paradeproceeded to the melody of Our Asia, played to the pounding beat of drums built in the shape of osmanthus, the city flower of Hangzhou, fervently extending the city's invitation to Asia’s best.During the parade, images of iconic scenic spots at Hangzhou's famous West Lake were projected onto the oval-shaped floor screen, with the scent of osmanthus sprayed out across the stadium, allowing marching athletes and spectators to enjoy the city's picturesque scenery in an immersive way.Wang Hao, president of the 19th Asian Games Hangzhou Organizing Committee, said Hangzhou is honored to playhostto such a grand event, where friendship and mutual respect are strengthened."In this season of harvest, we give our best wishes to all the athletes and hope that they will compete with passion, challenge personal limits, strive for excellence and realize their dreams," said Wang, also governor of Zhejiang province."We hope that all participants will engagein closer communication, appreciate the culture of one another, build stronger friendships and find happiness during the Games."Raja Randhir Singh, the acting president of the Olympic Council of Asia, showed appreciation for the Chinese host's meticulous organization in his speech.“You have done a fantastic job in preparing for the Asian Games. The one-year postponement due to the pandemic was unprecedented in OCA history, but your diligence and determination will bearfruit over the next 16 days and you will be rewarded with the most magnificent and successful Asian Games ever," said Singh.Supported by new technologies, the Hangzhou ceremony boasted many historic firsts and highlighted the sustainable and digitally enhanced future of such gala events, according to the creative team.For the first time in China, organizers switched from a traditional firework show to a virtual display, projected onto a giant curtain screen the size of nine IMAX screens.An artistic performance, themed as "Tide Surging in Asia", captured the crowd's imagination with breathtaking projections depicting Hangzhou's past and present, with glasses-free 3D animations accompanying traditional dance performances.The design of the costumes worn by the performers was inspired by the region's rich history and timeless grace, dating back to the Song Dynasty (960-1279), with Hangzhou's ancient arts of music, poetry and calligraphy vividly reflected in the texture and style of the dresses designed by Chu Yan, a professor at Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology.For the finale, hundreds of millions of virtual sparks, each representing a participant of the online torch relay, formed the shape of a human torchbearer, who ran into the stadium to light the main cauldron together with the physical relay's final bearer — Zhejiang native and Olympic champion swimmer, Wang Shun.To adhere to the principle of delivering the greenest possible Games, zero-emissionmethanol was used to fuel all of the torches and the main cauldron.spectacle n.壮观的场面play host to 招待savor v. 品尝，欣赏strengthen v. 加强；增强be laden with 满载着engage in 参与Asian Games 亚运会acting adj. 临时代理的hospitality n. 好客meticulous adj. 一丝不苟的autumn equinox 秋分pandemic n. 流行病24 solar terms 24节气unprecedented adj. 前所未有的spectator n. 观众diligence n. 勤奋burst into 突然……起来bear fruit 取得成果continental adj. 大陆的boast v. 有（值得自豪的东西）parade n. 游行virtual adj. 虚拟的proceed v. 行进calligraphy n. 书法osmanthus n. 桂花finale n. 终场fervently adv.热心地；热诚地relay n. 接力赛iconic adj. 标志性的torchbearer n.火炬手project v. 投射cauldron n. 圣火盆picturesque adj. 古雅的zero-emission 零排放immersive adj. 身临其境的methanol n. 甲醇A stunning opening ceremony laden 1 ______ Hangzhou characteristics wowed the world on Saturday.

【01】Beijing will provide COVID-19 vaccinations (接种疫苗) for certain groups in nursing homes, including the elderly and caregivers, on a voluntary basis to prevent a renewed outbreak at nursing homes during autumn and winter, the local government said.Those who will receive the vaccines include nursing home kitchen workers,security guards and cleaners. Beijing Daily reported on Friday.Xing Yinli ,director of Jingkangyuan, a nursing home in Fengtai district with about 290 elderly residents (居民), said they have received the document recently and will strictly follow its guidance."It's our top duty to strengthen prevention and control", Xing said, adding they have been using methods such as keeping detailed records of resident contacts outside the nursing home, and encouraging online visits for family members.As to vaccinations, she said they will ask for permission from residents, their family members and workers before giving vaccines.In late October, Shaoxing, Zhejiang province carried out an emergency COVTD-19 vaccine program, allowing the public to ask for injections (注射) in advance, with key groups first. A similar program was also organized in Jiaxing, Ningbo and Yiwu in Zhejiang.Nationwide, emergency use of home grown COVID-19 vaccines was approved in June and launched in late July. China now has four coronavirus candidate vaccines in the third stage clinical trials (临床试验).The document from Beijing also said nursing homes should conduct nucleic acid testing (核酸检测) every month among kitchen workers and residents who leave the nursing homes to see a doctor. Tests will cover all people in nursing homes considered at high risk if new infections are reported in the city. Besides, routine disinfections (消毒) should be strengthened in kitchens, storerooms and restrooms, it said. The document also recommended noncontact visits from familymembers.1．Where can you probably find this article?A．In a newspaper.B．In a fashion magazine.C．In a book review.D．In a travel journal.2．What can we learn from Paragraphs 4 and 5?A．The nursing home kept detailed records of residents.B．All the members will make preparations for injections.C．The nursing home takes prevention and control seriously.D．Jiaxing is the first city to have carried out an emergency program. 3．What's the main idea of this passage？A．Nursing homes should conduct nucleic acid testing.B．Certain groups will have vaccines first in late June.C．Beijing nursing homes are to be provided vaccines.D．Routine disinfections should be strengthened in kitchens.【02】COVID herd immunity (群体免疫) will not happen in 2021 World Health Organization (WHO) chief scientist Soumya Swaminathan said Monday that herd immunity to coronavirus would not be achieved in 2021, despite the growing availability of vaccines (疫苗产量).Factors that delay herd immunity include limited access to vaccines in developing countries, skepticism (怀疑) over vaccination, and the potential for virus mutations (变异), according to health experts.A growing number of countries around the world, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Singapore, Germany and other European Union countries, are in the first stages of mass-vaccination campaigns.Herd immunity occurs when enough people in a population have immunity to an infection(传染) so that it prevents the disease from spreading.“We are not going to achieve any levels of population immunity or herd immunity in 2021,” Swaminathan said, while emphasizing that measures like physical distancing, hand washing and mask wearing continue to be necessary in controlling COVID's spread for the rest of the year.However, Swaminathan praised the “incredible progress” made by vaccine researchers to develop several safe and effective vaccines at unprecedented (空前的) speed. Countries are currently administering vaccines developed by BioNTech-Pfizer, Oxford University AstraZeneca and Moderna.“The vaccines are going to come,” she said. “They are going to go to all. countries, but meanwhile we mustn't forget that there are measures that work,” she added, referring to hygiene (卫生) and social distancing.“We won't get back to normal quickly,” Dale Fisher, chairman of the WHO's Outbreak Alert and Response Network, told a conference hosted by Reuters news agency. “We know we need to get to herd immunity and we need that in a majority of countries, but we are not going to see that in 2021,” Fisher said. “There might be some countries that might achieve it but even then that will not create normal especially in terms of border controls,” he added.4．Which of the following are not the factors that delay herd immunity? A．People are skeptical about vaccination.B．Access to vaccines in developing countries is limited.C．A growing number of countries begin mass-vaccination campaigns. D．Virus mutations are likely to happen.5．As for the first stages of mass-vaccination campaigns, which country is not mentioned in the passage?A．Vietnam B．GermanyC．Singapore D．the United Kingdom6．What can we learn from what Fisher said?A．In many countries in 2021, people will live a normal’ life in terms of border controls.B．If some countries might achieve herd immunity, people will live a ‘normal’ life.C．In terms of good border controls, we can achieve herd immunity. D．There maybe a long way to get to herd immunity all over the world. 7．What is the attitude of Swaminathan to the progress of vaccine development? A．positive B．negativeC．unclear D．neutral参考答案1．A2．C3．C【分析】本文是新闻报道。

高考英语二轮总复习课后习题 专项能力提升练 阅读理解 文体分类练7 新闻报道 (2)
文体分类练(七) 新闻报道(限时:25分钟)Passage1(四川成都三诊)Jeff Jensen,the business and Boy Scout leader,was in a dilemma and had painful damage in his leg and foot.He needed surgery,but he doubted whether he could afford it,even withinsurance.“There’s nothing more depressing than seeing a bill for 24,000 dollars and going.How much of this will my insurance cover and how much is mine to cover?” Jensen told WWAY-TV.Luckily for Jensen,his doctor is Demetrio Aguila.The nerve specialist gives patients the option to pay for surgery through volunteer work.He founded an organization called M25 Program.“We can’t ignore the people in our own backyard,” Aguila told CBS.“We want to be able to offer hope to patients who have lost hope medically.”Using an algorithm (算法),the clinic calculates community service hours based on the price of the surgery.In Jensen’scase,the $12,000 operation equaled 560 hours of helping out at one of the local charitable organizations registered with the M25 Program.Like 10 percent of Aguila’s patien ts,Jensen chose the community service.And because hundreds of hours of community service can seem difficult,Aguila,50,not only lets others participate,he encourages it.“I had this hope that we would reawaken in our neighbors and in ourselves a sense of vol unteerism,” he told CNN.Jensen,whose surgery was completed in February ,was helped by more than 100 friends and strangers who volunteered at Orphan Grain Train,which donates food,clothing,and medicine nationally and globally.Dave Harvey,founder of the homeless aid organization Least of My Brethren,is counted as one who is inspired by Aguila.“He is making things easier by sending volunteers our way!” he told KMTVin Omaha.“What a cool thing!”1.What can a patient do if he can’t afford surgery according to the te social media.B.Raise money in the hospital.C.Join in the voluntary service.D.Turn to the insurance company.2.What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 4 refer to?A.People’s help.B.The M25 Program.munity service.D.Medical assistance.3.What’s Harvey’s attitude to Aguila?A.Cautious.B.Concerned.C.Grateful.D.Doubtful.4.Where is the te?A.A local newspaper.B.A medical journal.C.A clinic

letter to the Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control with a straightforward request.“Dear LA County,I would like your approval if I can have a unicorn in my backyard if I can find one.Please send me a letter in response.”Director Mayeda replied two weeks later.The department does in fact license unicorns,she said,under certain conditions.Those include polishing the unicorn’s horn a t least once a month with a soft cloth,feeding it watermelon at least once a week,covering it with only nontoxic and biodegradable sparkles and giving it regular access to sunlight,moonbeams and rainbows.And,because unicorns are indeed very rare to find,the department is also giving Madeline a toy unicorn to keep her company during her search,as a token of appreciation.“It is always rewarding to hear from young people who thoughtfully consider the requirements of providing a loving home for animals,” Mayeda wrote in the letter.“I like your sense of responsible pet ownership to seek permission in advance to keep a unicorn in Los Angeles County.”Mayeda told TheWashingtonPost that this is the first time the department has received a request for a license for a unicorn or any mythical creature.They were impressed with the first-grader for wanting to ask permission in the first place,and doing her research to work out how to go about that.She and her colleagues deal with a lot of “life-and-death” issues on the job,whether that’s seeing cases of animal abuse or animals hurting people or making decisions about having to put down dangerous or sick animals.So Madeline’s letter has considerably brightened their spirits,and she is due to visit the department this week to discuss her unicorn license application.Safe to say,she’s in for a magical surprise.5.Why did Madeline write the letter?A.To apply to visit a unicorn.B.To learn to provide animal care.C.To ask permission to keep a pet.D.To figure out how to find a unicorn.6.What can we learn from paragraph 3?A.Her application was disapproved.B.Requirements should be met for the license.C.She was presented with a live unicorn.D.Guidance was given for her search.7.Which of the following best describes Mayeda?A.Imaginative.B.Sensitive.C.Flexible.D.Convincing.8.Why does the department think the letter “has brightened their spirits”?A.Because it is the first application letter for a pet.B.Because animal protection is a life-and-death issue.C.Because they are worn out with their daily work.D.Because they are touched with the girl’s deeds.Passage3(广东茂名二模)Holding the large and heavy “brick” cellphone he’s credited with inventing 50 years ago,Martin Cooper talks about the future.Little did he know when he made the first call on a New York City street from a heavy Motorola prototype(原型)that our world would come to be encapsulated on a sleek glass sheath where we search,connect,like and buy.Cooper says he is an optimist.He believes that advances in mobile technology will continue to transform lives but he is worried about risks smartphones pose to privacy and young people.“My most negative opinion is that we don’t have any privacy anymore because everything about us is now recorded someplace and accessible to somebody who has enough intense desire to get it,” the 94-year-old said in an interview in Barcelona at MWC,the Mobile World Congress,the world’s biggest wireless trade show,where he was getting a lifetime award.Cooper sees a dark side to the advances,including the risk to children.One idea,he said,is to have“various Internets intended for different audiences”.Cooper made the first public call from a handheld portable telephone on a Manhattan street on April 3,1973,using a prototype device his team at Motorola had started designing just five months earlier.Cooper used the DynaTAC phone to famously call his opponent at Bell Labs,owned by AT&T.It was literally the world’s first brick phone,weighing 2.5 pounds and measuring 11 inches.Cooper spent the best part of the nemercial version of the device to market.The call helped kick-start the cellphone revolution.Cooper said he’s “not crazy” about the shape of modern smartphones.He thinks they will develop so that they’ll be “distributed on your body”,possibly as sensors “measuring your health at all times”.Batteries,he said,might be replaced by human energy.The body makes energy from food,he argues,so it could possibly also powera phone.Instead of holding the phone in the hand,for example,the device could be placed under the skin.9.What does the underlined part “a sleek glass sheath” in paragraph 2 refer to?A.A smartphone.B.A Motorola prototype.C.A “brick” cellphone.D.An original cellphone.10.What is Cooper’s attitude about the future of the mobile phone?A.Most negative.B.Very subjective.C.Doubtful and disapproving.D.Optimistic but also concerned.11.What can be inferred about children from paragraph 5?A.They should be provided with a different Internet from adults.B.They should have easy access to various Internets.C.They should be introduced to different audiences.D.They should use various Internets for learning materials.12.According to Cooper,how might smartphones be powered in the future?A.By body sensors.B.By human body.C.By solar energy.D.By advanced batteries.答案：Passage1[语篇解读]本文是一篇新闻报道,主要讲的是JeffJensen在医生DemetrioAguila成立的M25Program的帮助下,通过参加社区服务来支付了手术费用的故事。
