第二部分 阅读理解（满分40分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
21．（6分）Easy to make and cheap to buy, instant noodles have long been China’s, ultimate convenience food.
Since it was a snack for students, a meal on the train, or just the go-to choice for hungry workers, more than 46.2 billion packets were sold in China in 2013. But it seems this industry has gone off the boil. By 2016 those sales had declined to 38.5 billion, according to the World Instant Noodle Association, a drop of almost 17%.
“This phenomenon shows an unnoticeable while continuous change in China’s consumption (消费) patterns,” said Zhao Ping of the Academy of China Council for the Promotion of International Trade. He told the China Daily, “Consumers are more interested in life quality than just filling their bellies these days.”
About 730 million people in China now have access to the Internet according to government figures. And about 1% of those are using smart phones to connect. And apps that offer food delivery to your home, office or wherever you happen to be are a real fast-developing industry.
Their menus are undoubtedly more expensive than a pot of instant noodles. But these meals can still be inexpensive, and arguably more tasty, depending on your favor.
But put in the global background, China is still easily the biggest market for instant noodles. In fact, China’s consumption was roughly equal to Indonesia, Japan, Vietnam, India, the US, South Korea and the Philippines combined.
And that means global noodle manufacturers are unlikely to turn away from the Chinese market. Japan’s instant noodle business Nissin Foods, for example, is planning to land on the stock market, in Hong Kong, by which operation it hopes to raise about 145 million dollars. It is rare for a Japanese firm to list in Hong Kong, but Nissin is talking up its prospects in China, where it is already the fifth biggest brand.
“Some consumers stopped consuming instant noodles, but most consumers want to increase the quality (of food they consume),” chief executive Kiyotaka Ando told CNBC last week.
“We can supply high-quality products so we have more possibility to develop our business.”
1、The phrase “go off the boil” in Paragraph 2 is close in meaning to ________.
A．stop boiling B．turn down
C．develop rapidly D．get out of control
2、According to the text, it is because of ________ that people have more food choices.
A．development of food manufacturing industry
B．fall of price in foods beyond instant noodles
C．technological development on communication
D．people’s doubt on instant noodles’ food safety
3、Which of the following descriptions is TRUE according to the text?
A．China consumes more instant noodle than any other country does.
B．China is beginning to lose its first place in instant noodle business.
C．Nissin is the fifth biggest brand of Japan’s instant noodle business.
D．Nissin is planning to build an instant noodle factory in Hong Kong.
4、We can infer from the text that ________.
A．China’s instant noodle consumption will continue to drop
B．Chinese people will favor cheaper instant noodles to save money
C．instant noodles will have a pessimistic prospect in the future
D．instant noodle manufacturers will focus more on its food quality
22．（8分）Thousands of persons in Peru are suffering from the disease cholera. Medical experts say it is the first time in their century that cholera has reached the western part of the world. The United States Centers for disease control says the kind of cholera has been spreading throughout the world since 1961. It was discovered that year in Indonesia. Since the first case in Peru, more than sixteen thousand people have been affected and about one hundred have died.
Cholera is caused by polluted food and water. People become infected (传染) when they eat the polluted food or drink the polluted water. If untreated immediately, they may die within hours. Most victims however, can be saved. Treatment includes drugs and replacement of body fluids (液体) directly into the blood.
Medical researchers have developed a vaccine (菌苗) medicines to protect against cholera. But the vaccine is only about 50% effective. And it protects against cholera for only about six months. Medical experts say the best way to fight cholera is to prevent it. They also say people should not eat uncooked food or food that has not been cooked long enough. People who live in areas where cholera has been found should wash their hands before eating and cooking. They should drink only water that has been boiled or made pure with chemicals.
1、The underlined word “Cholera” in the first paragraph means ________.
A．a certain place in Peru

23．（8分）You already know that making a good first impression can go a long way. But forget all the advice you’ve received about dressing to impress or putting on a cheesy smile. It turns out that the true secret to building a lasting connection reaches much deeper than what you wear.
According to Amy Cuddy, a Harvard Business School professor who has researched first impressions for more than 15 years, everyone asks two questions when they meeting someone new: Can I trust this person? And can I respect this person?
Both questions help you measure a person’s warmth and competence, respectively. But, Cuddy says, you should put gaining your peers’ trust over winning their respect—even in a workplace setting. “If someone you’re trying to influence doesn’t trust you, you’re not going to get very far; in fact, you might even draw suspection because you come across as a controller,” Cuddy wrote in her book Presence: Bringing Your Boldest Self to Your Biggest Challenges. “A warm, trustworthy person who is also strongly admired, but only after you’ve established trust does your strength become a gift rather than a threat.”
But that’s not the only way you can start off on the right foot with a stranger. Your physical appearance matters, too. A 2017 study by psychologist Leslie Zebrowitz of Brandeis University found that people use four clues to judge your face: babyfacedness, familiarity, fitness, and emotional resemblance. While you can’t control all of these factors, you can improve your “emotional resemblance” by using body language that builds trust naturally.
The next time you meet someone new, focus on gaining their trust—not winning them over with a firm handshake.
1、What’s the main misunderstanding described in the first paragraph?
A．dressing to impress.
B．putting on a cheesy smile.
C．making a good first impression.
D．building a lasting connection.
2、Which is more important in a workplace setting according to Amy Cuddy?
A．gaining your peers’ trust.
B．winning your peers’ respect.
C．trying to influence your peers.
D．drawing your peers’ suspection as a controller.
3、What does Leslie Zebrowitz suggest in a 2017 study?
A．You can control your “fitness”.
B．You can control your “familiarity”.
C．You can improve your “babyfacedness”.
D．You can improve your “emotional resemblance”.
4、What is the best title for the text?
A．Judge one by a firmly-made handshake
B．Judge one by a naturally-built trust
C．Judge one by the first impression
D．Judge one by the physical appearance
24．（8分）The English have a difficult and, generally speaking, dysfunctional (怪异的) relationship with clothes. Their main problem is that they have a desperate need for rules, and are unable to get along without them. This helps to explain why they have an international reputation for dressing in general very badly, but with specific areas of excellence, such as high-class men’s suits, ceremonial costumes, and innovative (革新的) street fashion. In other words, we English dress best when we are “in uniform”.
You may be surprised that I am including “innovative street fashion” in the category of the uniform. Surely the parrot-haired punks (朋克摇滚乐迷) or the Victorian vampire goths are being original, not following rules? It’s true that they all look different and eccentric (古怪的) but in fact they all look eccentric exactly in the same way. They are wearing a uniform. The only truly eccentric dresser in this country is the Queen, who pays no attention to fashion and continues to wear what she likes, a kind of 1950s fashion, with no regard for anyone else’s opinion. However, it is true that the styles invented by young English people are much more eccentric than any other nation’s street fashion. We may not be individually eccentric, apart from the Queen, but we have a sort of collective eccentricity, and \ye appreciate originality in dress even if we do not individually have it.
Another “rule” of behavior I had discovered was that it is very important for the English not to take themselves too seriously, to be able to laugh at themselves. However, it is well known that most teenagers tend to take themselves a bit too seriously.
The goths, in their scary black costumes, certainly look as if they are taking themselves seriously. But when I got into conversation with them, I discovered that they too had a sense of humor. I was once chatting to a goth in the full vampire costume—with a white face, deep purple lipstick, and black parrot-hair. I saw he was also wearing a T-shirt with “Goth”. “Why are you wearing that?” I asked. “In case you don’t realize I’m a goth.” he answered, pretending to be serious. We both burst out laughing.
1、What can we know about the English people?
A．They need rules to dress well. B．They are in need of uniforms.
C．They are creative in general. D．They lead the world trend.
2、Who is individually eccentric in dressing?
A．A high-class man. B．A parrot-haired punk.
C．The Queen. D．The fashion innovator.
3、Which of the following can best describe the goths?
A．They dress badly.
B．They dress in an amusing way.
C．They are unable to laugh at the way they dress.
D．They are less fashionable than the other English people.
4、What may be the best title for the text?
A．How the English Dress
B．How the English Admire Fashion
C．Why the English Like Uniforms
D．Why the English Are Eccentric in Dress
25．（10分） A new study explores the custom of tipping in the United States. Many Americans give tips to people who perform a job for them, especially workers in the service industry. They pay a little extra to people cutting their hair, driving them across town or serving them a meal at a restaurant.
The researchers found that men give bigger tips to restaurant workers than women. And people who live in the northern US are more generous with tips than those living in the South. People who earn $ 50, 000 or more a year give bigger tips than those who earn less than $50, 000. There is one likely reason: the wealthier Americans have more money to spend.
