2022·河南开封月考 记叙文 313词 ★★☆☆☆
I want to talk about a soldier. I saw him yesterday as my husband and I were enjoying a
wonderful lunch in the cavelike dining room of an old hotel.
It is hard to imagine being comfortable in a room that probably seats a thousand people, but
the real magic of the place is its wonderful setting. Every corner is a wood and stone masterpiece,
with high glass windows that look out to the huge cliffs of the valley.
A man entered with his family and took a seat. He wasn't in uniform, but he walked with the
dignity of a soldier, and a slight limp (跛行). My suspicion was confirmed when he removed his
hat and placed it on the table where I could see it. Embroidered (刺绣) on the cap were the words:
“Iwo Jima Survivor”．
As they were waiting for lunch, the others were talking happily, and this gentleman was
staring out of the window. He was content to be left out of the conversation and allowed to take in
the wonderful and impressive view of the waterfall.
I watched him, and imagined how many horrors he had seen in the war. What losses did he
suffer, and how many friends did he lose? What he had witnessed should have given him a good
reason to lose faith in the world. Yet this tired soldier was smiling at the sky, at the sun and the
roar of the waterfall. Somehow, after everything, the world was still beautiful to him.
I walked over to him and said, “Excuse me, sir. I'm sorry to interrupt, but I saw your hat, and
I just wanted to say thank you for serving.”
He looked up at me, surprised, and said proudly, “You're welcome, and thank you, too.”
I told him I would go home and tell my children about this experience that I'd met him.1．What can we know about the place where the author enjoyed lunch?

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 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, milkbased 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.
5．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.
6．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．The reduced their products' sugar content.
7．From which of the following is the sugar tax collected?
A．Most alcoholic drinks. B．Milkbased drinks.
C．Fruit juices. D．Classic Coke.
8．What can be inferred about the adoption of the sugar tax policy?
A．It is a shortsighted decision.
B．It is a success story.
C．It benefits manufacturers.
D．It upsets customers.
