街道，到底该为谁设计

▫️ ① 摆现象：街道更安全了，但行人（尤其儿童）反而走得更少

▫️ ② 引观点：荷兰两位作者《Movement》呼吁重想街道的角色

▫️ ③ 回溯历史：为修路拆掉社区，Jane Jacobs 带头护公园

▫️ ④ 点明现实：抗议虽多，西方城市最终仍围着汽车重造

▫️ ⑤ 算代价：钱都投给「快速通过」，却不算孩子不能安全出门这笔账

▫️ ⑥ 收束：该换一种方式看自家门前那条街

While safety improvements might have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian (行人) mobility, especially among young children. Many parents say there's too much traffic on the roads for their children to walk safely to school, so they pack them into the car instead.

Dutch authors Thalia Verkade and Marco te Brömmelstroet are bothered by facts like these. In their new book Movement: How to Take Back Our Streets and Transform Our Lives, they call for a rethink of our streets and the role they play in our lives.

Life on city streets started to change decades ago. Whole neighbourhoods were destroyed to make way for new road networks and kids had to play elsewhere. Some communities fought back. Most famously, a Canadian journalist who had moved her family to Manhattan in the early 1950s led a campaign to stop the destruction of her local park. Describing her alarm at its proposed replacement with an expressway, Jane Jacobs called on her mayor (市长) to champion “New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through.” Similar campaigns occurred in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s as well.

Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. The number of cars on roads has been increasing rapidly. In Australia we now have over twenty million cars for just over twenty-six million people, among the highest rate of car ownership in the world.

We invest a lot in roads that help us rush through, but we fail to account for the true costs. Do we really recognise what it costs us as a society when children can't move safely around our communities? The authors of Movement have it right: it's time to think differently about that street outside your front door.

1. What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1?

A. Cars often get stuck on the road.

B. Traffic accidents occur frequently.

C. People walk less and drive more.✅

D. Pedestrians fail to follow the rules.

答案 C

细节理解题。根据第一段内容可知，作者指出的现象是人们步行减少、开车增多。

2. What were the Canadian journalist and other campaigners trying to do?

A. Keep their cities livable.✅

B. Promote cultural diversity.

C. Help the needy families.

D. Make expressways accessible.

答案 A

推理判断题。根据第三段“Most famously, a Canadian journalist who had moved her family to Manhattan in the early 1950s led a campaign to stop the destruction of her local park. Describing her alarm at its proposed replacement with an expressway, Jane Jacobs called on her mayor to champion 'New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through.'”可推知，加拿大记者和其他运动参与者旨在保持城市宜居性。

3. What can be inferred about the campaigns in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s?

A. They boosted the sales of cars.

B. They turned out largely ineffective.✅

C. They won government support.

D. They advocated building new parks.

答案 B

推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. The number of cars on roads has been increasing rapidly.”可推知，20世纪60年代末和70年代澳大利亚的竞选活动未能阻止汽车发展，基本上没有效果。

4. What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Why the Rush?✅

B. What's Next?

C. Where to Stay?

D. Who to Blame?

答案 A

标题归纳题。通读全文，尤其根据文章最后一段“We invest a lot in roads that help us rush through, but we fail to account for the true costs. Do we really recognise what it costs us as a society when children can't move safely around our communities?”可推知，本文批判城市过度追求交通效率、忽视行人需求的现象，选项A“Why the Rush?”质问“rush through”的规划理念，契合文章主旨，最适合作为本文标题。

English Market Towns to Visit in the UK

English market towns come in many shapes and sizes. Each has a personality shaped by the goods and services produced and traded for centuries. But each town has more to do than shop.

Hereford, Herefordshire

Hereford has remained a lively market town since 1189. Skirting the town square, you'll find lovely shops, eateries, and the Black and White House Museum. The Hereford Cathedral is the most impressive building in town. It's also home to an ancient library. One of the four original copies of the Magna Carta is displayed there.

Ludlow, Shropshire

Ludlow is known as the Foodie Center of England. Butcher shops, greengrocers, bakeries, and cheese shops line the town square. Bordering the square, the Ludlow Castle is a “must explore” medievalstronghold. The three-day Ludlow Food Festival is held each September.

Shrewsbury, Shropshire

Getting to Shrewsbury Town Center from London is challenging but worth the anxiety. The River Severn has a significant turn through town, almost making an island of Shrewsbury Town Center. The shape creates a perfect market where goods could be shipped and received using the river as a highway. Flowers are everywhere—hanging baskets, window boxes, and planters—just what you imagine in an attractive English market town.

Mevagissey, Cornwall

Even if you haven't been to the small fishing village Mevagissey, you've probably seen it in a movie or British TV show. The working harbor (港口) took shape in 1774. Fishermen go out to sea daily and sell their fish in harbor-side markets. Don't leave the harbor without a traditional Cornish pie. It's delicious.

5. Where can you find an original copy of the Magna Carta?

A. In the Ludlow Castle.

B. In the Foodie Center of England.

C. In the Hereford Cathedral.✅

D. In the Black and White House Museum.

答案 C

细节理解题。根据Hereford, Herefordshire部分中“The Hereford Cathedral is the most impressive building in town. It's also home to an ancient library. One of the four original copies of the Magna Carta is displayed there.”可知，在赫里福德大教堂可以找到《大宪章》的原始副本。

6. What is a feature of Shrewsbury Town Center?

A. It's situated near a big island.

B. It's almost surrounded by water.✅

C. It's known for its flower festival.

D. It's easily accessible from London.

答案 B

细节理解题。根据Shrewsbury, Shropshire部分中“The River Severn has a significant turn through town, almost making an island of Shrewsbury Town Center. The shape creates a perfect market where goods could be shipped and received using the river as a highway.”可知，什鲁斯伯里镇中心几乎被水包围。

7. What does the author suggest visitors do in Mevagissey?

A. Try the Cornish pie.✅

B. Watch a British TV show.

C. Go fishing in the sea.

D. Take pictures of the harbor.

答案 A

细节理解题。根据Mevagissey, Cornwall部分中“Don't leave the harbor without a traditional Cornish pie. It's delicious.”可知，作者建议游客在梅瓦吉西一定要尝尝康沃尔馅饼。

What comes into your mind when you think of British food? Probably fish and chips, or a Sunday dinner of meat and two vegetables. But is British food really so uninteresting? Even though Britain has a reputation for less-than-impressive cuisine, it is producing more top class chefs who appear frequently on our television screens and whose recipe books frequently top the best seller lists.

It's thanks to these TV chefs rather than any advertising campaign that Britons are turning away from meat-and-two-veg and ready-made meals and becoming more adventurous in their cooking habits. It is recently reported that the number of those sticking to a traditional diet is slowly declining and around half of Britain's consumers would like to change or improve their cooking in some way. There has been a rise in the number of students applying for food courses at UK universities and colleges. It seems that TV programmes have helped change what people think about cooking.

According to a new study from market analysts, 1 in 5 Britons say that watching cookery programmes on TV has encouraged them to try different food. Almost one third say they now use a wider variety of ingredients (配料) than they used to, and just under 1 in 4 say they now buy better quality ingredients than before. One in four adults say that TV chefs have made them much more confident about expanding their cookery knowledge and skills, and young people are also getting more interested in cooking. The UK's obsession (痴迷) with food is reflected through television scheduling. Cookery shows and documentaries about food are broadcast more often than before. With an increasing number of male chefs on TV, it's no longer “uncool” for boys to like cooking.

11. What do people usually think of British food?

A. It is simple and plain.✅

B. It is rich in nutrition.

C. It lacks authentic tastes.

D. It deserves a high reputation.

答案 A

细节理解题。根据第一段“What comes into your mind when you think of British food? Probably fish and chips, or a Sunday dinner of meat and two vegetables. But is British food really so uninteresting?”可知，提及英国食物，大家往往只是想到炸鱼薯条和周日烤肉，所以人们通常会觉得英国食物平平无奇。

12. Which best describes cookery programme on British TV?

A. Authoritative.

B. Creative.

C. Profitable.

D. Influential.✅

答案 D

推理判断题。根据第二段“It's thanks to these TV chefs rather than any advertising campaign that Britons are turning away from meat-and-two-veg and ready-made meals and becoming more adventurous in their cooking habits.”和“It seems that TV programmes have helped change what people think about cooking.”可知，英国的烹饪节目能够改变英国人对烹饪的看法，尝试从传统的英式饮食走出来，尝试新的烹饪习惯，由此推知英国的烹饪节目具有很大的影响力。

13. Which is the percentage of the people using more diverse ingredients now?

A. 20%.

B. 24%.

C. 25%.

D. 33%.✅

答案 D

细节理解题。根据第三段“Almost one third say they now use a wider variety of ingredients than they used to, and just under 1 in 4 say they now buy better quality ingredients than before.”可知，三分之一左右的人，也就是33%左右的人，使用更多样化的配料。

14. What might the author continue talking about?

A. The art of cooking in other countries.

B. Male chefs on TV programmes.✅

C. Table manners in the UK.

D. Studies of big eaters.

答案 B

推理判断题。根据第三段的最后一句“With an increasing number of male chefs on TV, it's no longer 'uncool' for boys to like cooking.”可知，接下来，文章可能会列举电视上的男性厨师，从而与上文形成语义连贯。

文字之外的世界史

▫️ ① 立论：只靠文献写不出「不偏袒某一部分人」的世界史

▫️ ② 例证：Botany Bay 冲突，英方有报告，澳方只留下一面木盾

▫️ ③ 方法：木盾也要像文字报告一样被严格追问、解读

▫️ ④ 追问：胜利者才识字，失败者只剩物件，历史因此只有「半场对话」

▫️ ⑤ 结论：要找另一半，得同时读文本与物品

▫️ ⑥ 出处题由此而来：《100 件物品中的世界史》

If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part of humanity, you cannot do it through texts alone, because only some of the world has ever had texts, while most of the world, for most of the time, has not. Writing is one of humanity's later achievements, and until fairly recently even many literate (有文字的) societies recorded their concerns not only in writing but in things.

Ideally a history would bring together texts and objects, and some chapters of this book are able to do just that, but in many cases we simply can't. The clearest example of this between literate and non-literate history is perhaps the first conflict, at Botany Bay, between Captain Cook's voyage and the Australian Aboriginals. From the English side, we have scientific reports and the captain's record of that terrible day. From the Australian side, we have only a wooden shield (盾) dropped by a man in flight after his first experience of gunshot. If we want to reconstruct what was actually going on that day, the shield must be questioned and interpreted as deeply and strictly as the written reports.

In addition to the problem of miscomprehension from both sides, there are victories accidentally or deliberately twisted, especially when only the victors know how to write. Those who are on the losing side often have only their things to tell their stories. The Caribbean Taino, the Australian Aboriginals, the African people of Benin and the Incas, all of whom appear in this book, can speak to us now of their past achievements most powerfully through the objects they made: a history told through things gives them back a voice. When we consider contact (联系) between literate and non-literate societies such as these, all our first-hand accounts are necessarily twisted, only one half of a dialogue. If we are to find the other half of that conversation, we have to read not just the texts, but the objects.

15. What is the first paragraph mainly about?

A. How past events should be presented.✅

B. What humanity is concerned about.

C. Whether facts speak louder than words.

D. Why written language is reliable.

答案 A

段落大意题。根据第一段“If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part of humanity,... recorded their concerns not only in writing but in things.”可推知，第一段主要说明过去的事件被呈现的方式。

16. What does the author indicate by mentioning Captain Cook in paragraph 2?

A. His report was scientific.

B. He represented the local people.

C. He ruled over Botany Bay.

D. His record was one-sided.✅

答案 D

推理判断题。根据第二段首句“Ideally a history would bring together texts and objects, and some chapters of this book are able to do just that, but in many cases we simply can't.”可推断，作者认为历史应该是文本和物品相结合的产物，但是很多情况下，我们做不到。再根据下文“From the English side, we have scientific reports and the captain's record of that... after his first experience of gunshot.”可知，作者举这个例子是为了说明船长的记录是片面的，只从自己的角度描述了问题。

17. What does the underlined word “conversation” in paragraph 3 refer to?

A. Problem.

B. History.✅

C. Voice.

D. Society.

答案 B

词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“The Caribbean Taino, the Australian Aboriginals, the African people of Benin and the Incas,... only one half of a dialogue.”结合画线词所在句“If we are to find the other half of that conversation, we have to read not just the texts, but the objects.”可知，我们对过去历史的了解，只是书写历史的人想要让我们了解的历史，如果我们想要了解历史的另一半，我们应该结合文字和物品，可推知conversation指的是“历史”。

18. Which of the following books is the text most likely selected from?

A. How Maps Tell Stories of the World

B. A Short History of Australia

C. A History of the World in 100 Objects✅

D. How Art Works Tell Stories

答案 C

推理判断题。根据第一段“If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part of humanity,... for most of the time, has not.”结合最后一段的“If we are to find the other half of that conversation, we have to read not just the texts, but the objects.”可知，本文讲述仅仅依靠书面文本来讲述世界历史有局限性，想要更好地了解历史就要将文本和物品结合在一起。从而可推断，本文最有可能选自《100件物品中的世界史》。

悉尼能不能又老又年轻

▫️ ① 起点：60 年代悉尼「发现」了海港，海港成就这座城

▫️ ② 渡轮司机：旧船要换双体船，快了，却不够优雅也没乐趣

▫️ ③ 官方历史学家：70 年代奔向现代，扫掉太多过去，城市自我困惑

▫️ ⑤ 作者立场：他说的对，可我还是舍不得那些旧渡船

Sometime in the early 1960s, a significant thing happened in Sydney, Australia. The city discovered its harbor. Then, one after another, Sydney discovered lots of things that were just sort of there—broad parks, superb beaches, and a culturally diverse population. But it is the harbor that makes the city. Andrew Reynolds, a cheerful fellow in his early 30s, pilots Sydney ferryboats for a living. I spent the whole morning shuttling back and forth across the harbor. After our third run Andrew shut down the engine, and we went our separate ways—he for a lunch break, I to explore the city.

“I'll miss these old boats,” he said as we parted. “How do you mean?” I asked. “Oh, they're replacing them with catamarans. Catamarans are faster, but they're not so elegant, and they're not fun to pilot. But that's progress, I guess.” Everywhere in Sydney these days, change and progress are the watchwords (口号), and traditions are increasingly rare. Shirley Fitzgerald, the city's official historian, told me that in its rush to modernity in the 1970s, Sydney swept aside much of its past, including many of its finest buildings. “Sydney is confused about itself,” she said. “We can't seem to make up our minds whether we want a modern city or a traditional one. It's a conflict that we aren't getting any better at resolving (解决).”

On the other hand, being young and old at the same time has its attractions. I considered this when I met a thoughtful young businessman named Anthony. “Many people say that we lack culture in this country,” he told me. “What people forget is that the Italians, when they came to Australia, brought 2000 years of their culture, the Greeks some 3000 years, and the Chinese more still. We've got a foundation built on ancient cultures but with a drive and dynamism of a young country. It's a pretty hard combination to beat.” He is right, but I can't help wishing they would keep those old ferries.

19. What is the first paragraph mainly about?

A. Sydney's striking architecture.

B. The cultural diversity of Sydney.

C. The key to Sydney's development.✅

D. Sydney's tourist attractions in the 1960s.

答案 C

段落大意题。根据第一段“a significant thing happened in Sydney... But it is the harbor that makes the city”可知，本段主要讲述了悉尼发展过程中的关键。

20. What can we learn about Andrew Reynolds?

A. He goes to work by boat.

B. He looks forward to a new life.

C. He pilots catamarans well.

D. He is attached to the old ferries.✅

答案 D

推理判断题。根据第三段“I'll miss these old boats”和第五段“Catamarans are faster...they're not fun to pilot”可以推断, Andrew Reynolds很喜欢这些旧渡船。

21. What does Shirley Fitzgerald think of Sydney?

A. It is losing its traditions.✅

B. It should speed up its progress.

C. It should expand its population.

D. It is becoming more international.

答案 A

推理判断题。根据第六段“Sydney swept aside much of its past, including many of its finest buildings”和“Sydney is confused about itself” “We can't seem to make up our minds whether we want a modern city or a traditional one”可以看出, Shirley Fitzgerald觉得悉尼在发展过程中丢弃了太多传统，以至于现在定位有点模糊。

22. Which statement will the author probably agree with?

A. A city can be young and old at the same time.✅

B. A city built on ancient cultures is more dynamic.

C. Modernity is usually achieved at the cost of elegance.

D. Compromise should be made between the local and the foreign.

答案 A

推理判断题。根据最后两段中的“being young and old at the same time has its attractions”及“I can't help wishing they would keep those old ferries”可知，作者认为新旧交融自有其魅力，希望悉尼能够保留那些旧渡船，故作者很可能认同A项“一个城市可以新旧交融在一起”。

糖税收得少，为什么反倒是成功

▫️ ① 反差开头：糖税收入只有财政部原先预测的一半

▫️ ② 初衷：2016 年宣布，针对每 100ml 含糖超 5g 的饮料，为减儿童肥胖

▫️ ③ 为什么收少了：过半厂商主动降糖避税，饮料少了 4500 万公斤糖

▫️ ④ 谁仍要交：Classic Coke 等高糖品牌不改配方；果汁、奶饮、多数酒类免税

▫️ ⑤ 评价：钱投进校园体育与健康饮食，政策效果被官方认定为正面

The Government's sugar tax on soft drinks has brought in half as much money as Ministers first predicted it would generate, the first official data on the policy has shown. First announced in April, 2016, the tax which applies to soft drinks containing more than 5g of sugar per 100ml, was introduced to help reduce childhood obesity (肥胖). It is believed that today's children and teenagers are consuming three times the recommended level of sugar, putting them at a higher risk of the disease.

Initially the sugar tax was expected to make £520m a year for the Treasury. However, data of the first six months showed it would make less than half of this amount. At present it is expected to generate £240m for the year ending in April 2019, which will go to school sports. It comes after more than half of soft drinks sold in shops have had their sugar levels cut by manufacturers (制造商) so they can avoid paying the tax. Drinks now contain 45 million fewer kilos of sugar as a result of manufacturers' efforts to avoid the charge, according to Treasury figures. Since April drinks companies have been forced to pay between 18p and 24p for every litre of sugary drink they produce or import, depending on the sugar content.

However, some high sugar brands, like Classic Coca Cola, have accepted the sugar tax and are refusing to change for fear of upsetting consumers. Fruit juices, milk-based drinks and most alcoholic drinks are free of the tax, as are small companies manufacturing fewer than 1m litres per year. Today's figures, according to one government official, show the positive influence the sugar tax is having by raising millions of pounds for sports facilities (设施) and healthier eating in schools. Helping the next generation to have a healthy and active childhood is of great importance, and the industry is playing its part.

23. Why was the sugar tax introduced?

A. To collect money for schools.

B. To improve the quality of drinks.

C. To protect children's health.✅

D. To encourage research in education.

答案 C

细节理解题。根据第二段“First announced in April, 2016, the tax which applies to soft drinks containing more than 5g of sugar per 100ml, was introduced to help reduce childhood obesity”可知，征收糖税是为了保护孩子的健康。

24. How did some drinks companies respond to the sugar tax?

A. They turned to overseas markets.

B. They raised the prices of their products.

C. They cut down on their production.

D. They reduced their products' sugar content.✅

答案 D

细节理解题。根据第四段“It comes after more than half of soft drinks sold in shops have had their sugar levels cut by manufacturers so they can avoid paying the tax”可知，一些饮料制造商为避税，降低了所生产饮料的含糖量。

25. From which of the following is the sugar tax collected?

A. Most alcoholic drinks.

B. Milk-based drinks.

C. Fruit juices.

D. Classic Coke.✅

答案 D

推理判断题。根据第五段“However, some high sugar brands, like Classic Coca Cola”以及“Fruit juices, milk-based drinks and most alcoholic drinks are free of the tax”可知，果汁饮料、奶制品饮料、大部分含酒精饮料是免征糖税的，而可口可乐公司是高含糖量饮料的生产商，由此推断出Classic Coke是需要缴税的。

26. What can be inferred about the adoption of the sugar tax policy?

A. It is a short-sighted decision.

B. It is a success story.✅

C. It benefits manufacturers.

D. It upsets customers.

答案 B

推理判断题。根据最后一段首句可以推测出糖税的征收是一个成功的案例。
