16．（6分）In March，2021.the United Nation （UN） released（发表） a report on the
worldwide problem of food waste.It shows that people around the world waste a billion tons of
food a year.About twice as much as earlier studies suggested.
The report covered food waste around the world in2019.The study looked at several different
ways in which food is wasted﹣﹣at home，in restaurants and in stores.It shows that most
food waste about61%happened at home.On average （平均），food waste at home is shout
74 kilograms for each person every year.Restaurants were responsible for about26% of the
food wasted.The left 13% was thrown away by stores.
One surprising discovery was that food was wasted at about the same speed in all countries
学科网（北京）股份有限公司except the poorest ones.The UN had difficulty measuring （测量） food waste in the poorest
countries.Many people thought rich countries were more likely to waste food than less rich
countries.That turned out not to be true.In fact，some rich countries wasted far less food than
average.
But people in rich countries may waste less food at home because they eat out at restaurants
more often.For example，the US has low waste numbers for homes，but quite high numbers
for restaurants.
Sometimes people might throw away food although it's still good to eat，simply because
the "Best By" or "Sell By" date has passed，In poorer countries，people throw away food
because not all homes have a fridge.
Why is wasting food such a problem？For one thing，hundreds of millions of people
went hungry in 2019.Wasting food is also really bad for the planet.Farming creates between
10% and 30% of the world's greenhouse gas.When food is thrown out，the pollution is created
for nothing.
The report says that it's important for countries to study food waste more carefully in order
to work out ways to solve the problem.Some possible uses for food waste include making food
for animals，creating compost （肥料） to help crops grow.or burning （燃烧） food to
create energy.The important thing is to keep food from simply becoming rubbish.
（1）What can we learn about food waste in 2019？
A.The poorest countries wasted the least food.
B.The US wasted more food at restaurants than at home.
C.Most food waste happened at restaurants in the world.
D.Rich countries wasted more food than less rich counties.
（2）How many reasons for throwing away food does the passage mention？
A.One.
B.Two.
C.Three.
D.Four.
（3）What is probably the writer's main purpose in writing the passage？
A.To warn people of the bad results of food waste.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司B.To explain why people around the world waste food.
C.To compare the situations of food waste in different counties.
D.To encourage all countries to work out solutions to food waste.
17．（6分）Some articles argue the TV is dead.According to this opinion，people are spending
far more time using the Internet for entertainment （娱乐） and information.As A result，
they argue the TV is becoming less and less important in our lives.The time we spend watching
videos online increasing，but I don't think this is an reason to believe we should say goodbye
to the television.
The TV is still a very popular way for a lot of us to get entertainment at home.It offers us the
chance to see top musical artists，great films and documentaries and sometimes，thanks to
important live events，it has the power to bring the whole country and all ages together in a
way the Internet never could.How often do thousands or even millions of friends or families sit
down at the same time to watch something together online？
Some people argue that the TV offers a poor quality of programmes on many channels
（频道） we now have.It is certainly true that many of the channels do nothing more than
repeat old shows or offer cheap and low quality programmes，However，I would argue that a
lot of content （内容） on the Internet isn't very great.At least TV shows have professional
（职业的） people checking the quality of shows，but a lot of content online doesn't.
I agree that it is easy to keep up﹣to﹣date with the latest news on the Internet，even
though much of it is not true.1 enjoy sitting down to the news on TV in the evening，and I am
more likely to believe the information than the things I read online.Anybody can post
information on the Internet and a lot of it is opinion rather than fact.
So I don't think we should be so quick to say goodbye to the TV.In fact，I think it has
many more years left in it!I certainly won't exchange my TV for the latest notebook computer
and will still enjoy relaxing in front of it in the evenings.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司（1）What does the writer say about the TV？
A.The TV gives more opinions than facts.
B.The TV brings more information than pleasure.
C.People prefer to watch important live events on TV.
D.People spend more time watching TV than using the Internet.
（2）The word "quality" in Paragraph 3 probably means" "
A.level
B.result
C.interest
D.improvement
（3）Which of the following would be the best title for the passage？
A.The End of the TV？
B.Ways to Get Information and Pleasure
C.Which is Better，the TV or the Internet？
D.The Advantages and Disadvantages of the TV

18．（8分） International Day of
Friendship
Friends come in all shapes and sizes，They may be someone we met as "child，a
classmate at school，someone we met at work or through other friends.Friends enjoy doing
things together or simply talking with each other，Friends are there to help us at difficult times
and celebrate the good times.Doctors say that friends are very important for both our physical
and mental health.
But friendship is not only important on a personal level，It is also important on an
international level.Friendships between countries can help bring peace and avoid war.
Thinking of people in other countries as our friends helps us work together to build a culture
of peace.That's why the United Nations （UN）declared （宣布） 30 July as its official
International Day of Friendship.
An international celebration was first suggested by Dr Ramon Artemio Bracho and his
friends in Parguny（巴拉圭），in 1958.They wanted to support （支持） the importance of
学科网（北京）股份有限公司friendship in keeping the peace so they decided to celebrate Friendship Week in Puerto Pinasco
and other places in Paraguay.The following year，they celebrated the week again and finished
on 30 July，which they declared as Friendship Day.From there，celebrations of friendship
grew and spread across the Americas，then the world，and finally the UN declared an
International Day of Friendship in 2011.
A number of countries celebrate the International Day of Friendship on 30 July，but it is
not the only day celebrating friendship around the world.Other countries have different
dates.For example，Argentina，Brazil and Spain celebrate Friend's Day on 20 July，while in
India and the US，they celebrate it on the first Sunday in August.
The celebrations around the world are very similar （相似的），Friends meet up to
spend time together.They may eat out or have a meal at home.They give each other small
gifts：books，flowers and simple jewellery.Some people send each other cards and greetings
online.Whatever form the celebration takes，the real meaning is the same to remember the
importance of friends and the power of friendship.
（1）Why is friendship important on an international level？
（2）When is International Day of Friendship？
（3）What is Paragraph 3 mainly about？
（4）What's the real meaning of the celebrations of friendship？

16．（6分）In March，2021.the United Nation （UN） released（发表） a report on the
worldwide problem of food waste.It shows that people around the world waste a billion tons of
food a year.About twice as much as earlier studies suggested.
The report covered food waste around the world in2019.The study looked at several different
ways in which food is wasted﹣﹣at home，in restaurants and in stores.It shows that most
food waste about61%happened at home.On average （平均），food waste at home is shout
74 kilograms for each person every year.Restaurants were responsible for about26% of the
food wasted.The left 13% was thrown away by stores.
One surprising discovery was that food was wasted at about the same speed in all countries
except the poorest ones.The UN had difficulty measuring （测量） food waste in the poorest
countries.Many people thought rich countries were more likely to waste food than less rich
countries.That turned out not to be true.In fact，some rich countries wasted far less food than
average.
But people in rich countries may waste less food at home because they eat out at restaurants
more often.For example，the US has low waste numbers for homes，but quite high numbers
for restaurants.
Sometimes people might throw away food although it's still good to eat，simply because
the "Best By" or "Sell By" date has passed，In poorer countries，people throw away food
because not all homes have a fridge.
Why is wasting food such a problem？For one thing，hundreds of millions of people
went hungry in 2019.Wasting food is also really bad for the planet.Farming creates between
10% and 30% of the world's greenhouse gas.When food is thrown out，the pollution is created
for nothing.
The report says that it's important for countries to study food waste more carefully in order
学科网（北京）股份有限公司to work out ways to solve the problem.Some possible uses for food waste include making food
for animals，creating compost （肥料） to help crops grow.or burning （燃烧） food to
create energy.The important thing is to keep food from simply becoming rubbish.
（1）What can we learn about food waste in 2019？ B
A.The poorest countries wasted the least food.
B.The US wasted more food at restaurants than at home.
C.Most food waste happened at restaurants in the world.
D.Rich countries wasted more food than less rich counties.
（2）How many reasons for throwing away food does the passage mention？ B
A.One.
B.Two.
C.Three.
D.Four.
（3）What is probably the writer's main purpose in writing the passage？ D
A.To warn people of the bad results of food waste.
B.To explain why people around the world waste food.
C.To compare the situations of food waste in different counties.
D.To encourage all countries to work out solutions to food waste.
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据But people in rich countries may waste less food at home
because they eat out at restaurants more often.For example，the US has low waste numbers for
homes，but quite high numbers for restaurants.（但富裕国家的人们在家浪费的食物可能会
更少，因为他们更经常在餐馆吃饭。例如，美国的住宅垃圾数量较低，但餐馆的垃圾数
量相当高。）可知，美国人在餐馆浪费的食物比在家里浪费的多。故选B。
（2）细节理解题。根据Sometimes people might throw away food although it's still good to
eat，simply because the "Best By" or "Sell By" date has passed，In poorer countries，people
学科网（北京）股份有限公司throw away food because not all homes have a fridge.（有时，人们可能会扔掉食物，尽管
它仍然很好吃，只是因为"最佳食用日期"或"销售截止日期"已经过去了。在较贫穷的国
家，人们扔掉食物，因为不是所有的家庭都有冰箱。）可知，这篇文章提到了扔掉食物
的两个原因。故选B。
（3）主旨大意题。根据The report says that it's important for countries to study food waste
more carefully in order to work out ways to solve the problem.Some possible uses for food
waste include making food for animals，creating compost （肥料） to help crops grow.or
burning （燃烧） food to create energy.The important thing is to keep food from simply
becoming rubbish.（该报告称，各国要更仔细地研究食物浪费，以便找到解决问题的方
法，这很重要。食物垃圾的一些可能用途包括为动物制作食物，制作肥料以帮助作物生
长。或者燃烧食物来产生能量。重要的是不要让食物变成垃圾。）可知，作者写这篇文
章的主要目的是鼓励所有国家制定解决食物浪费的方案。故选D。
