A
As Chinese New Year approaches and we look to welcome the Year of the Tiger, what better
way to celebrate than enjoying a chicken chow mein? I am a huge fan of Chinese food. My only
complaint with it is that I often ended up paying more than planned! Thankfully there is a cheaper
alternative: a Chinese ready meal in a supermarket. But how reliable are they and do they match
up to the taste of an authentic Chinese takeaway?
Tesco - £2.75 for 400g
I had high hopes for Tesco’s chicken chow mein. It came in a plastic pot as most Chinese
takeaways do and the noodles looked thick and appetising. However, I was not impressed at all. It
was very dry and there wasn’t much chicken. There were more vegetables than noodles, with an
especially large amount of carrot. It claimed to be dressed in a “sesame (芝麻) sauce” but I found
there was barely any coating (涂层,覆盖层) at all. 3/10
Waitrose - £3.75 for 400g (currently £2.81)
The difference between Waitrose’s chicken chow mein and Tesco’s could not be clearer.
Waitrose’s chow mein claims to be a Chinese recipe with “egg noodles, chicken and vegetables in
a soy and rice wine sauce.” On first glance, there was a much higher proportion of chicken than
Tesco had, and plenty of tender vegetables. It was much moister and the chicken was lovely and
tasty. There was lots of flavour and I thoroughly enjoyed it. 9/10
Aldi - £1.89 for 400g
Aldi’s chicken chow mein was the cheapest and tasted that way. I tried a bit of chicken first
and it took me a good minute to get through; it looked and tasted completely dry, making it
difficult to chew and swallow. It was like cardboard. There wasn’t much, either. The rest of the
dish was fairly dull and the noodles were soft. There was also only a small number of vegetables
in the dish. I liked that it had chilli in too, which added a hint of spice. But the fact that the spice
was the one advantage is a giveaway that this is a pretty poor chicken chow mein. 2/10
Final verdict: Waitrose 9/10, Tesco 3/10, Aldi 2/10

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。介绍了三个不同超市里的中餐——鸡肉面。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一自然段“My only complaint with it is that I often ended up paying more
than planned!（我唯一的抱怨是，我经常支付超出计划的费用！）”可知，作者对中国食物
的问题是她经常超出预算。故选B。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二自然段“There were more vegetables than noodles, with an especially
large amount of carrot.（蔬菜比面条多，胡萝卜特别多。）”和第三自然段“On first glance,
there was a much higher proportion of chicken than Tesco had, and plenty of tender vegetables.
（乍一看，鸡肉的比例远远高于特易购，还有很多嫩蔬菜。）”可知，特易购和维特罗斯
炒面的共同点是都有很多蔬菜。故选D。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“It was like cardboard. There wasn’t much, either. The rest of the
dish was fairly dull and the noodles were soft. There was also only a small number of vegetables
in the dish.（就像纸板一样。也没有多少……菜里也只有少量的蔬菜。）”可知，同样都是
400克的炒面，阿尔迪的鸡肉炒面鸡肉和蔬菜量都少，所以可以推断出它的面条的量是最
多的。故选A。
B
Riding a motorbike in Uganda was something only men could do. At least that is what Allen
Kisakye Butundu was told when she said she wanted to learn to ride one. “The community were
shocked to see a female rider. Some people would even shout things at me and chase me,” she
says.
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂The 27-year-old decided to learn to ride a motorbike two years ago. Initially, the decision was
to save money on travel between the capital, Kampala, and the more rural areas where she worked
as a social worker. But she is now one of just a few female riders of boda boda, as motorbike taxis
are known, in Uganda.
Butundu earns up to £10 a day on her motorbike and is the chief breadwinner for her children
and husband, a trained vet, who has regular periods without work. But the journey has not been
easy in a society with engrained gender roles. Her husband “refused completely” when she
asked him to teach her how to ride.
“I didn’t give up,” she says. “I stopped boda boda drivers on the road and said: ‘I’m not a
customer but I want to learn how to ride this bike, I want to do your business.’”
Butundu was taught by other riders, paying them a small fee or buying petrol. Her husband
eventually came around to her new passion and bought a £1,400 bike. Last year, she became a
full-time driver. Working from about 10 am to 6 pm most days, Butundu says she decided to give
up her former career because she could be more flexible with her hours. She has recently bought
another bike and rents one out to a friend.
Being a woman can have benefits, she says. Riders are constantly trying to avoid police
officers in central Kampala as they weave (穿梭) in and out of heavy traffic. This often leads to
the police forcing drivers to pay large fines. “But when they notice I am a woman, instead of being
tough, they start smiling and they let me go,” she laughs.
Butundu hopes her story will encourage other women to start riding boda boda in Uganda.
She is determined to keep on breaking gender boundaries. “Those who talk, let them talk,” she
laughs. “This woman is serious now.”
4. Why did Butundu learn to ride a motorbike?
A. She was unhappy with her job.
B. She was encouraged by her family.
C. She was moving to a rural area.
D. She wanted to reduce her travel expenses.
5. What does the underlined word ‘engrained’ mean?
A. Flexible. B. Difficult. C. Fixed. D.
Creative.
6. What made Butundu go full time?
A. The chance to earn a higher salary.
B. The chance to choose her working hours.
C. The chance to give rides to friends.
D. The chance to learn from other riders.
7. What can we infer from the final paragraph?
A. She thinks women are better boda boda riders.
B. She is reconsidering her career choice.
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂C. She cares little about others’ negative opinions.
D She thinks gender boundaries are easily broken.
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是记叙文。文章讲述了乌干达妇女Butundu学习骑摩托车，尽管这在这个性
别固定的社会几乎不可能，她仍旧学会了骑摩托车并赚钱养家，她还希望通过她的经历鼓
励其他乌干达的其他女性，打破性别界限。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“The 27-year-old decided to learn to ride a motorbike two years
ago. Initially, the decision was to save money on travel between the capital, Kampala, and the
more rural areas where she worked as a social worker.(27岁的她两年前决定学骑摩托车。最初，
她做这个决定是为了节省往返于首都坎帕拉和她在那里做社工的农村地区的路费)”可知，
Butundu学习骑摩托车是想要节省路费。故选D。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。上文“Butundu earns up to £10 a day on her motorbike and is the chief
breadwinner for her children and husband, a trained vet, who has regular periods without work.
(布顿杜每天靠摩托车挣10英镑，是孩子和丈夫的主要经济支柱,丈夫是一名兽医，经常没
有工作)”说明Butundu骑摩托车赚的钱是家里的主要经济来源，but表示转折，结合下文
“Her husband “refused completely” when she asked him to teach her how to ride.(当她要求丈夫
教她骑摩托车时，他“彻底拒绝了”)”可知，尽管Butundu靠骑摩托车赚的钱是家里的主
要经济来源，但是这条路在这个性别角色固定的社会并不容易。由此可知，划线词与
fixed“固定的”意思相近。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段的“Last year, she became a full-time driver. Working from about
10 am to 6 pm most days, Butundu says she decided to give up her former career because she
could be more flexible with her hours.(去年，她成了一名全职司机。Butundu说，她决定放弃
以前的工作，因为她可以在工作时间上更灵活)”可知，可以灵活选择工作时间让Butundu
可以全职工作。故选B。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Butundu hopes her story will encourage other women to start
riding boda boda in Uganda. She is determined to keep on breaking gender boundaries. “Those
who talk, let them talk,” she laughs. “This woman is serious now.”(Butundu希望她故事能鼓励
乌干达其他女性开始骑boda boda。她决心继续打破性别界限。“那些说闲话的人，就让他
们说去吧，”她笑着说。“这个女人现在很认真。”)”可推断，她不在乎别人的消极评价。
故选C。
C
Some of the world’s most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day. UNESCO( United Nations Educational,
Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz
music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying(联合) voice across cultures.
Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow
older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.
It’s Jason Moran’s job to help change that. As the Kennedy Center’s artistic adviser for jazz,
Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible, and preserve its
history and culture.
“Jazz seems like it’s not really a part of the American appetite,” Moran tells National Public
Radio’s reporter Neal Conan. “What I’m hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger
start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and write anymore. It’s actually color, and
it’s actually digital.”
Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music
has been lost. “The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to
continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same,” says Moran.
Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller’s music for a dance party,
“Just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,”
says Moran. “For me, it’s the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion(情感) lie?
Are we, as humans, gaining any insight(感悟) on how to talk about ourselves and how something
as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts?
Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context,” says Moran, “so I want to continue
those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster.”
8. Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day?
A. To remember the birth of jazz.
B. To protect cultural diversity.
C. To encourage people to study music.
D. To recognize the value of jazz.
9. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Jazz becoming more accessible.
B. The production of jazz growing faster.
C. Jazz being less popular with the young.
D. The jazz audience becoming larger.
10. What can we infer about Moran’s opinion on jazz?
A. It will disappear gradually.
B. It remains black and white.
C. It should keep up with the times.
D. It changes every 50 years.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂A. Exploring the Future of Jazz.
B. The Rise and Fall of Jazz.
C. The Story of a Jazz Musician.
D. Celebrating the Jazz Day.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述UNESCO把4月30号定为国际爵士乐日，希望意
识到爵士乐的价值，但实际收效甚微。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的 UNESCO(United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural
Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and
its potential as a unifying(联合) voice across cultures.可知，UNESCO把4月30号定为国际爵
士乐日是为了让人们重视爵士乐，意识到它的重要性以及它作为连接各文化的纽带之声的
潜在功能，也就是为了让人们意识到爵士乐的价值。故选D。
【9题详解】
代词指代题。根据前文Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues
to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations可知，尽管
UNESCO为爵士乐设了纪念日，但美国的爵士乐听众依然在减少，并且年龄在老化，爵士
乐没能将年轻一代人连接起来。再结合 It’s Jason Moran’s job to help change that(是Jason
Moran的工作是帮助改变那一情况)可推测，that指代的是前文中爵士乐在年轻一代人中失
去吸引力的现象。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中的The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958.
It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same 可知，Moran认为
现在爵士乐不能 以1908或1958年的方式来呈现，因为世界已经不同了，所以爵士乐必须
不断进步，说明随着时代的 发展，爵士乐也要跟上时代才不会被年轻一代所抛弃。故选
C。
【11题详解】
标题选择题。通读全文可知本文主要讲UNESCO为提高人们对爵士乐的重视而设立爵士日，
但实际收效甚微。有人认为爵士乐应随着时代的进步而进步，否则将失去对人们的吸引力，
因此本文主要是探索爵士乐的未来，故选A。
D
Children may learn new words better when they learn them in the context of other words
they are just learning—according to a new research from the University of East Anglia.
Researchers investigated how 18–24-month-olds learn new words—in the context of
words they already know well and those they don’t. The findings help explain how children
learn new words and suggest a new way that parents and carers could help boost language
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂development.
Previous research suggests that when children hear a word they do not know and see an
object they have never seen in the context of some objects that they can already name, such as
a toy or a ball, they guess that the new word refers to the new thing.
Dr. Larissa Samuelson from the university wanted to know if the strength of a child’s
knowledge of familiar things—how well they know what “cars” or “balls” are, for example—
mattered for learning new words and remembering them. They asked 82 children to take part in
the study and carry out two experiments among them. And then they got some really surprising
findings.
“We had expected that a stronger knowledge of familiar words would be better for
learning new words, but we found the opposite was true.” Dr Samuelson said. “This new study
suggests another way we might be able to help boost children’s ability to remember new word-
object links – by teaching them in the context of other things that they are just learning.”
It seems counterintuitive , but it is perhaps because the less well-known items don’t
compete with the new words as much. If they learn new words in the context of playing with
well-known items such as a ball or book, they don’t process the new word as much.
12. What is the purpose of the new research?
A. To challenge the findings of previous studies. B. To observe the process of children’s
learning.
C. To better understand children’s word learning. D. To compare children’s different
learning styles.
13. What can be inferred from Dr. Samuelson’s words?
A. Their findings are out of expectation. B. Their research should focus on
children.
C. We should be more patient with children. D. We need to provide guidance on
learning.
14. What does the underlined word “counterintuitive” mean in the last paragraph?
A. Consistent. B. Encouraging. C. Impractical. D.
Unreasonable.
15. What does the text mainly tell us?
A. Less familiar words help children learn better.
B. Word-object links contribute to better learning.
C. New research finds the secrets of raising children.
D. Children learn better with the help of their parents.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。新研究发现如果孩子们把新单词放在他们刚刚学过的其他单词
的背景下学习，他们可能会学得更好。文章介绍了研究开展的过程以及研究发现把孩子们
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂放到刚刚学习的其他事物的背景下，孩子们学习生词和认识物品的能力更好。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Researchers investigated how 18–24-month-olds learn new words—
in the context of words they already know well and those they don’t. The findings help explain
how children learn new words and suggest a new way that parents and carers could help boost
language development.(研究人员调查了18到24个月大的婴儿是如何学习新单词的——在他
们已经熟悉和不熟悉的单词的背景下。这一发现有助于解释儿童是如何学习新单词的，并
提出了一种父母和看护者可以帮助促进语言发展的新方法)”可知，这项新研究的目的是更
好地理解儿童的单词学习。故选C。
13题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中““We had expected that a stronger knowledge of familiar
words would be better for learning new words, but we found the opposite was true.” Dr
Samuelson said.(“我们本以为，对熟悉的词汇掌握得越深入，对学习新单词就越有帮助，
但结果却恰恰相反。”Samuelson博士说)”可推知，从Samuelson博士的话中可以推断出
他们的发现出乎意料。故选A。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段中“This new study suggests another way we might be able to
help boost children’s ability to remember new word-object links – by teaching them in the context
of other things that they are just learning.”以及画线词后文“but it is perhaps because the less
well-known items don’t compete with the new words as much”可知，这项新研究提出了另一
种方法，我们可能可以通过在孩子们刚刚学习的其他事物的背景下教孩子们，来帮助提高
孩子们记住生词和物品的能力，后文but表示转折，说明这一方法似乎是不合理的，但这
可能是因为不太知名的项目不与新单词竞争。故画线词意思是“不合理的”。A.
Consistent.一贯的；B. Encouraging.鼓舞人心的；C. Impractical.不实际的；D. Unreasonable.
不合理的。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Children may learn new words better when they learn them in the
context of other words they are just learning—according to a new research from the University of
East Anglia. (根据东安格利亚大学的一项新研究，如果孩子们把新单词放在他们刚刚学过的
其他单词的背景下学习，他们可能会学得更好)”结合文章介绍了研究开展的过程以及研究
发现把孩子们放到刚刚学习的其他事物的背景下，孩子们学习生词和认识物品的能力更好。
可知，文章主要告诉我们不太熟悉的单词有助于孩子更好地学习。故选A。

第三节 读后续写（满分25分）
57. 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。
After a very meaningful conversation with my dad about the old days, we came up with an
object that we both remembered clearly. It was my first bicycle. My mind told me I got it when I
was seven, who was cheated to ride it for fifty yards alone the first time I tried!
My dad put together all the small pieces of the bicycle from a beautiful material that he
called, “Your own car.” Of course I knew he had some magical ability, but I didn’t think he could
make such an awesome object. He added the seat and the pedals (脚踏板) so that I would not have
any problems. My dad recalled the bicycle was the smallest he could find while I remember how
huge it was. I was so afraid of it and there was no way that I was going to control that monster-
sized material. The bicycle was left in my backyard as a decoration for a month because I refused
to ride it. Honestly, I was scared to try it.
After a month, my dad gave me a lecture to teach me what being a man was all about. I was
finally determined to try it. My dad was proud of me and I felt very manly. He and I went to the
park to see what we could do there. The park was empty when we arrived. I had no doubt that my
dad told everybody not to be there because we had to use it. I felt sorry for other people, but I was
proud to have such an capable person as my dad. We found a smooth and open space. My dad was
holding the back part of the seat to make sure I didn’t fell. He promised me that I was not going to
fall because he would be running right behind, holding the bicycle.

【答案】A possible version
I started to pedal and the bicycle moved. As the wheels responded beautifully and smoothly,
it was for the first time that I felt this sensation of freewheeling. Carefully steering the bicycle, my
heart thumped as the bicycle was accelerating. Attempting to behave manly, I sat straight, pedaling
and wondering whether and when I could handle the bike on my own. Minutes ticked by before it
hit me that my dad would be worn out after following me for such a long distance. “Dad, you
could let go if you are tired.” I yelled. No response!
I turned around and found my dad was not behind. My mind going blank, I was scared out
of wits! I landed on the road and fell off the bike before I knew where the brakes were. Luckily,
I only got some scratches on the knees and elbows. Minutes later, my dad caught up and
congratulated me on my being manly for cycling 50 yards on my own. After a few more hours’
practice I learnt how to pedal, steer, turn and brake properly. A little frightening as the
experience was, I felt the joy of learning to do something independently and grateful for the
meaningful memory with my father.
