解析
文章讲述的是作者跟同事在饭店吃饭的时候,因为浪费了事物而被罚款的故事,认识到了事物是社会的资源,我们不应当浪费。
小题1:上下文,根据后文的We noticed a few customers including several old ladies, were having their meal可知,有几个客人在吃饭,所以是在饭店里。
小题2:句意理解,当食物被供应/招待的时候,serve a dish 常用搭配,意为上菜
小题3:句意理解,根据every bit可知,此处意为他们吃掉盘子里的每一点食物。
小题4:常用搭配,因为他们在饭店,所以此处是我的同事帮我点了很多的食物。
小题5:常用搭配,根据dining可知,此处是spend time doing sth
小题6:上下文,因为他们没有足够的时间,所以走的时候盘子里还有三分之一没吃的食物。 Unconsumed 意为没吃光的
小题7:上下文,根据calling us 可知,此处是听到别人在叫我们。
小题8:句意理解,跟根据后面的wasting so much food可知,她们叫住我们是对我们浪费食物的行为感到不满意,不高兴

小题15:连词,转折。钱是你们的,但是资源是属于社会的,你没有任何理由可以浪费资源。
小题16:同上

核心考点
试题【RESOURCES BELONG TO THE SOCIETYWhen I arrived in Hamburg Germany, my colleague w】;主要考察你对题材分类等知识点的理解。[详细]
举一反三
Travel is exciting and summer is a busy period for holiday travel. Many people will travel great distances in airplanes, cars or other vehicles. Experts say people should know about other health problems that can strike when traveling by air.
One of these is a condition called hypoxia (缺氧症). It results from a lack of oxygen to the brain. Experts say the body begins losing oxygen minutes after an airplane leaves the ground. The air pressure in a plane during flight is lower than at sea level. This makes it more difficult for the body to effectively use the same amount of oxygen as it would on the ground. Fewer oxygen molecules (分子) cross the tissues (组织) in the lungs and reach the bloodstream.
The result is a five to twenty percent drop in the amount of oxygen in the blood. This reduces the amount of oxygen that reaches the organs of the body.
One effect of this lack of oxygen to the brain is a headache. When this happens, the heart attempts to fix the situation by beating harder and faster. This can make the traveler feel tired.
These signs of hypoxia are not dangerous in a healthy person. But a drop in oxygen level can cause a health emergency in people with heart or lung problems. They might lose consciousness or even suffer a heart attack.
Experts say that smoking cigarettes and drinking alcoholic liquids also reduce the body’s ability to use oxygen. So they suggest that people not drink alcohol or smoke cigarettes either before or during a flight. They also say persons with heart or lung problems should seek advice from their doctors before flying.
小题1:The author writes the passage mainly to ___.
A.warn people in airplanes of possible dangers
B.offer some advice on avoiding health problems
C.explain the causes and effects of hypoxia
D.advise people not to smoke or drink alcohol
小题2:According to the passage, what leads to hypoxia?
A.The brain lacks enough oxygen.
B.The air pressure in a plane is too high
C.Our body needs less oxygen during takeoff.
D.The bloodstream contains no oxygen molecules.
小题3:The underlined part “fix the situation” means “___”.
A.use more oxygen it needs
B.increase the air pressure
C.reduce the amount of blood
D.bump more blood to the brain
小题4:Why should passengers not smoke or drink before flying?
A.They weaken the body’s ability to use oxygen.
B.Smoking may pollute the air inside the airplane.
C.Drinking alcohol may raise one’s blood pressure.
D.Drinking is forbidden at the airport.
小题5:Do you think which the following title is the best title for this passage?
A.Tralling
B.how to travel
C.some suggestions about on the plane while travelling
D.the causes and effects of hypoxia

September can be a depressing month. The summer holidays are over, it’s time to go back to work or school and Christmas is four months away. However, for some people it’s the perfect time to get away.
These days more and more people are taking their holidays late in the year and for good reasons. Holidays in autumn can be cheaper, the resorts are less crowded and the weather isn’t as extreme as it is in the summer. So, where are the best places to go? Here are our top tips.
Sardinia (in Italy) has an average temperature of 27℃ in September. It also has “Autunno in Barbagia” (Autumn in Barbagia) a series of festivals that take place in 27 villages in Barbagia, a mountainous region of inland Sardinia. The festivals continue from September to December, so there’s always something happening. There are street markets, craft workshops and there’s lots of eating and drinking (This is Italy, after all).
Dubrovnik Croatia has become very popular in summer but it’s quieter and more pleasant once the crowds have left. The weather is still warm but less humid. You can take a ferry to the popular beaches on the islands of Sunj and enjoy it with locals.
Dahab Egypt, is extremely hot in the summer with temperatures up to 38℃. However, the autumn is cooler while the sea is still warm. This makes Dahab the perfect place for snorkeling and windsurfing. There are also interesting historical sites to visit such as the Coloured Canyon, with its dramatic rock formations, and St Catherine’s Monastery, at the foot of Mount Sinai.
Kas is a relaxed fishing village on the Lycian coast in southern Turkey. There are plenty of things to do and the temperature has dropped (so you can actually enjoy doing them!) Kas is a good place to stay if you want to walk part of the Lycian way: a long-distance footpath that stretches for 500km from Fethiye to Antalya through the ancient land of Lycia. There are also watersports, of course. The best time to go diving is supposed to be after the first rains of autumn (usually between late September and early October) when the fish become most active.
Marrakech Morocco is another good destination. The city itself is a fascinating place to spend a few days. When you have had enough of that, go to Tigmi, a beautiful hill town about 20 kilometers away. There’s a hammam (a Turkish bath) and a large heated pool, which makes it the perfect place to relax.
Wherever you go this autumn – have fun!
小题1:Here are the good reasons for people to take holidays in autumn except that _______.
A.Holidays in autumn can be cheaper

A.visitors can take part in a series of festivals in October in Barbagia

C.the festivals continue from September to November

“Have a nice day!” may be a pleasant gesture or a meaningless. When my friend Maxie says “Have a nice day” with a smile, I know she sincerely cares about what happens to me. I feel loved and secure since another person cares about me and wishes me well.
“Have a nice day. Next!”This version of the expression is spoken by a salesgirl at the supermarket who is rushing me and my groceries out the door. The words come out in the same tone(腔调)with a fixed procedure. They are spoken at me, not to me. Obviously, the concern for my day and everyone else’s is the management’s attempt to increase business.
The expression is one of those behaviors that help people get along with each other. Sometimes it indicates the end of a meeting. As soon as you hear it, you know the meeting is at an end. Sometimes the expression saves us when we don’t know what to say “oh, you may have a tooth out? I’m terribly sorry, but have a nice day.”
The expression can be pleasant. If a stranger says “Have a nice day” to you, you may find it heart-warming because someone you don’t know has tried to be nice to you.
Although the use of the expression is an insincere, meaningless social custom at times, there is nothing wrong with the sentence except that it is a little uninteresting. The salesgirl, the waitress, the teacher, and all the countless others who speak it without thinking may not really care about my day. But in a strange and comfortable way, it’s nice to know they care enough to pretend they care when they really don’t care all that much. While the expression may not often be sincere, it is always spoken. The point is that people say it all the time when they like.
小题1:How does the author understand Maxie’s words?
A.Maxie shows her anxiety to the author.
B.Maxie really wishes the author a good day.
C.Maxie encourages the author to stay happy.
D.Maxie really worries about the author’s security.
小题2:What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.The salesgirl is rude.
B.The salesgirl is bored.
C.The salesgirl cares about me
D.The salesgirl says the words as a routine.
小题3: By saying “Have a nice day,” a stranger may _____.
A.try to be polite to you
B.express respect to you
C.give his blessing to you
D.share his pleasure with you
小题4:According to the last paragraph, people say “Have a nice day”_______.
A.sincerelyB.as thanksC.as a habitD.encouragingly
小题5:What is the best title of the passage?
A.Have a Nice Day—a Social Custom.
B.Have a Nice Day—a Pleasant Gesture.
C.Have a Nice Day—a Heart-warming Greeting.
D.Have a Nice Day—a Polite Ending of a Conversation.

Sports account for a growing amount of income made on the sales of commercial time by television companies.  Many television companies have used sports to attract viewers from particular sections of the general public, and then they have sold audiences to advertisers.
An attraction of sport programs for the major U. S.  media companies is that events are often held on Saturday and Sunday afternoons—the slowest time periods of the week for general television viewing.  Sport events are the most popular weekend programs, especially among male viewers who may not watch much television at other times during the week.

This is also why the networks continue to carry these programs regardless of low ratings.  Advertisers are willing to pay high fees to reach high-income consumers and those managers who make decisions to buy thousands of “company cars” and computer, with such viewers, these programs don’t need high ratings to stay on the air.
