We didn’t expect to see her again so soon: After a tearless farewell with my daughter, we left her new dorm room but then in the campus we saw her jogging against the August heat. I quickly rolled down the car window and Sarina didn’t miss a step as she turned, nodded at us and waved goodbye. I was in disbelief why the tears hadn’t come when we parted on her first day in university.
Our first separation, the day she left my body, was a nightmare of pain and suffering. While all births are amazing, not all women feel amazed about the births. However, our togetherness in the days and months that followed was so sweet that I felt her small body still seemed to be attached to mine. In the years to come, the sound of her feet running across the wooden floors of our house was like the gentle pounding that reminded me my little girl was here and that someday she would run to the paths I couldn’t follow.
Last year Sarina turned 16 and decided to pursue art in college. She was in excitement about college life with so much to expect but I was uneasy because it would be a long plane ride away from home. I tried to imagine what separation would be like, but I couldn’t. Separation, although on the horizon, still felt distant.
That’s why it wasn’t until the next morning when I awoke in a house absent of her footsteps that the tears finally came—and wouldn’t stop. I understood that Sarina had left the house, and I held onto the memory of her running. When the tears stopped, I was relieved that her body knew what it needed on separation day, and that with our love and support, she had the courage to run into an unfamiliar distance, to glance back, yet to keep moving forward.
4. What happened to the author on her daughter’s first day in college?
A. She burst into tears and had a painful farewell.
B. She appeared calm and didn't cry at their departure.
C. She asked her daughter to show them around the campus.

这是一篇记叙文。讲述了母亲送别女儿上大学感伤和不舍的心情，以及回忆了女儿出生成长的往事，然后明白家人的爱与支持会使女儿回头看，也会使她勇敢地前进的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“I was in disbelief why the tears hadn’t come when we parted on her first day in university.”（我很难相信，在她大学第一天，我们分别的时候，我为什么没有哭。）可知，作者在她们分别的时候表现地很平静，没有哭。故选B。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的关键句“However, our togetherness in the days and months that followed was so sweet that I felt her small body still seemed to be attached to mine.”（然而，在接下来的几天、几个月里，我们亲密无间的相处是如此的甜蜜，以至于我感觉她小小的身体似乎仍然与我的身体相连。）可推知，作者写这段回忆是为了展示母亲与女儿之间强烈的依恋。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“but I was uneasy because it would be a long plane ride away from home.”（但是我很不安，因为那是一段很长的飞机旅途，离家很远。）可知，分别在即，作者的心情是不安的，担忧的。worried意为“担心的”。故选B。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通过阅读可知，本文主要讲了母亲送别女儿上大学感伤和不舍的心情，以及回忆了女儿出生成长的往事，然后明白家人的爱与支持会使女儿回头看，也会使她勇敢地前进的故事。A选项过于片面；B，C选项文中并未提及。D选项“带着爱和支持前进”呼应主题。故选D。
【点睛】推理判断题是阅读理解常见题型。一般考查学生通过阅读文章内容进行合理地逻辑推理能力，做此类题切忌主观臆断，一定要在文章的基础上进行推理。如本文第二小题，推理作者写第二段的目的。那么就需要了解第二段写了什么内容。通过阅读可知，第二段讲述了作者与女儿第一次分开是女儿的出生，然后在母亲的养育下慢慢地长大，表现了母女的亲密无间。故推测第二段是为了表现母女之间的紧密的联系。

A simple, yet powerful UK program has been fighting elderly loneliness by recruiting young adults as volunteers to read to seniors with vision problems and mental diseases.
Lily has benefited from the program having her vision “restored” by 15-year-old Amy, a school girl who was paired with Lily through the Reading Friends project. Lily was a librarian and enthusiastic reader who would read “two to three books every week”. After developing a terrible disease, however, Lily found herself unable to read or watch television for any length of time without her eyes hurting.
Not only have Lily’s regular reading sessions with Amy helped to reconnect her with her passion for literature, they have also built a strong intergenerational friendship between the two ladies. “I chose a book and she would come along and read it to me,” Lily said. “But we have only got through two books so far because we end up chatting too much. We have read two historical novels and get on very well.”
Research shows that reading together can help older people to build social networks and connect with others. Evidence also shows that reading has a positive impact on the elderly’s wellbeing and can reduce the risk of developing mental diseases.
Rose, a teacher, is responsible for connecting schoolchildren like Amy with the program and she says that it has had an amazing impact on the youngsters. “We have wonderful young people at our school and we wanted to get them into the community,” Rose said. “It has been fantastic to see them blossom as well as improving their literacy and social skills. They are meeting community members like Lily that they are making friendships with, and library staff can help them, not only with education but outside as well.”

A. Read books to seniors. B. Have a chat with seniors.
C. Fight diseases for seniors. D. Make friends with seniors.
9. What can we learn from Lily’s reading sessions with Amy?
A. They benefit Lily a lot by restoring her vision.
B. They help Amy pick up her love for literature.
C. They help Lily volunteer in the reading project.
D. They build up the friendship between two ladies.
10. How does the program mostly benefit the elders?
A. By reducing elderly loneliness.
B. By curing the elders of vision problems.
C. By improving their literacy and social skills.
D. By enabling them to read books for a long time.
11. Where is this text most likely from?

Next time you throw away rotten lettuce or smelly berries you should think about this. Globally, we waste more than a third of the food we produce. That is according to the Food and Agriculture Organization.
A group of Swedish graduate students is working to fight that fact. They are in the Food Innovation and Product Design program and have come up with a way to use produce that is about to go to waste. They turn the food into non-perishable (不易腐烂) powder. It may help people who have limited access to food.
They are calling it FoPo Food Powder. It is exactly what it sounds like. It is dried, powdered, shelf-stable fruits and vegetables. The powder can be dropped into relief efforts after natural disasters. Or it can be given out in low-resource areas where fresh food and refrigeration are hard to come by.
Ngo, one of the students who developed it, says they are not making something ground breaking. Powdered food has been around since the early days of astronauts. But they are rethinking the waste and delivery channels. Their development team reached out to farmers and retailers to source fruit.
“Today a relief bag for humanitarian disasters contains various foods such as strawberry jam, peanut butter and peas in tomato sauce. We think that an easily transported pack of cheap dried food powder with high nutritional value would fit in perfectly,” Ngo says. The team has been trying to keep its prices down, too. That would aid low-budget humanitarian groups and non-governmental groups.
Freeze-dried food keeps most of the nutritional benefits of raw food. It loses some vitamins and minerals in the drying process. But it is still a good way to get fiber and nutrients.
The group are about to start working with the U.N.’s Initiative on Food Loss and Waste. They want to try and reach more people and countries that could benefit.
12. Why did the group of Swedish graduates develop the FoPo Food Powder?
A. To reduce food waste.
B. To cut the cost of food.
C. To replace the traditional food.
D. To improve the flavor of the food.
13. What does the underlined word “ground breaking” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Additional. B. Reasonable.
C. Creative. D. Worthwhile.
14. What can we learn about powdered food?
A. It is very popular in some poor areas.
B. It is an effective way to lower food prices.
C. It keeps the nutritional benefits of raw food.
D. It provides aids for people in low-resource areas.
15. What will the group do according to the last paragraph?
A. They are about to cooperate with the U.N.
B. They are about to write an Initiative for the U.N.
C. They will visit and help more people worldwide.
D. They will make great profits from their product.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. A

本文是一篇科普说明文。 主要介绍了一种将多余食物干燥打磨成粉末，制成“food powder”的方式。这种方式能减少粮食浪费，并且能帮助缺乏粮食的人们。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“A group of Swedish graduate students is working to fight that fact.” 一群瑞典研究生正在努力对抗这一事实。其中that fact，指的是上一段提到的食物浪费，他们研发产品是为了减少食物浪费，故选A。
【13题详解】
词义猜测题。从“Powdered food has been around since the early days of astronauts.”可以知道，将食物研磨成粉末的工艺早已有之，并不是他们开创的，有此可以推断上文“they are not making something ground-breaking” 他们并没有做出什么突破性的东西，其中的ground breaking同creative意思相近，故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段The powder can be dropped into relief efforts after natural disasters. Or it can be given out in low-resource areas where fresh food and refrigeration are hard to come by. 这些粉末可以投入自然灾害后的救援工作中。或者，它可以在资源匮乏的地区发放，那里新鲜食品和冰箱很难得到，由此推断出powered food可以为资源匮乏的地区提供援助，故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。文章最后一段The group are about to start working with the U.N.’s Initiative on Food Loss and Waste. They want to try and reach more people and countries that could benefit. 该组织即将开始与联合国组织合作在粮食损失和浪费问题上的倡议。他们希望努力惠及更多可能受益的人和国家。由此推断他们将和联合国进行合作，故选A。
【点睛】推理判断题的推断对象主要包括隐含意思、目标读者、观点态度、文章出处、写作意图等。以推断隐含意义的题目居多。推断隐含意义，即要求根据文章的某个句子、段落或全文所提供的事实进行逻辑推理，推断出作者没有提到、没有明说或者可能发生的事实。题干中常含infer（推断），suggest（暗示），imply（暗示），indicate（暗示），conclude（推断，得出结论）等词语。解此类题，首先找到相关信息，然后细读、理解相关信息的字面意义，最后结合语境和常识，在字面意义的基础上进行符合逻辑的推断，从而理解作者的言外之意。如小题1，根据文章第二段“A group of Swedish graduate students is working to fight that fact.” 一群瑞典研究生正在努力对抗这一事实。其中that fact，指的是上一段提到的食物浪费，他们研发产品是为了减少食物浪费，故选A。
