【题目】阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四项个选项（A，B，C和D）中选出最佳选项。
D
More and more Americans are showing an interest in healthy and locally-produced food. As the interest increases, raising chickens has been gaining popularity in some American cities.
“Look, we get three eggs this time.”
Collecting eggs is a daily pleasure for the Hurst family. Naomi Hurst says her family started to raise chickens in back of their home in Maryland a month ago.
“We have wanted to try having backyard chickens for a couple years now. And really just didn't have the time to build my own coop（鸡笼；鸡舍） and look out where to buy chickens. And then we met Rent a Coop,” said Naomi Hurst.
Rent a Coop is a chicken rental business. Tyler Phillips launched the company with a partner 18 months ago. It comes with a mobile coop on wheels, two egg-laying hens, feed, bedding, water bowl, feed bowl, and our 24-hour chicken hotline. You can call with any questions. The price is 185 dollars for four weeks.
After the four weeks passed, individuals can extend the rental agreement, return everything or purchase the animals and supplies.
Tyler Phillips designs and makes the coops. He says he wants to do as little damage as possible to the environment.
“We always try to have as many recycled materials as possible. And I want the coops to be safe for kids. I want the chickens to be comfortable and they have access to the grass while being inside the coop. I want it to be easily movable, light weight,” he said.
Some cities require people have large pieces of land, if they want to raise farm animals. Others require an agreement with neighbors, limit the number of chickens, or, even ban the birds.
Tyler Phillips expects that would change as interest in small poultry (家禽) coops grows.
“I see cities around the D. C. area changing laws almost monthly and different cities will change the law to being prochicken(赞成养鸡). That is happening all around the United States,” he said.
He believes that there will be chicken rental businesses in most American cities within five years.
（1）According to the passage people raise chickens probably to __________.
A.save the living cost
B.reduce farmers' burden
C.solve the employment problems
D.get safe and healthy food
（2）The Hurst family used to have trouble in ____________.
A.building a website for raising chickens
B.building the coops and buying the chickens
C.finding some place to raise the chickens
D.persuading the neighbours to accept their idea
（3）We can learn from the passage that ____ ______.
A.you can enjoy the Rent a Coop service after 18 months.
B.you can search online for any questions related to raising chickens.
C.you can pay for keeping the supplies and the chickens for ever
D.you can pay 185 dollars a week for renting things to raise the chickens.
（4）Tyler Phillips designed and made the coops ____________
A.based on the environmentally friendly concept
B.based on the government's supporting policy
C.to help advertise the organic and local food
D.to meet his neighbors' need of raising chickens

【题目】阅读下列四篇短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
C
Ask most people anywhere in the world what they want out of life and the reply will probably be: “to be happy.” Ed Deiner, an American psychology professor, has spent his whole professional life studying what makes people happy, comparing levels of happiness between cultures and trying to find out exactly why we enjoy ourselves.
Many people would say that this question does not need an answer. But Professor Deiner has one anyway. “If you're a cheerful, happy person, your marriage is more likely to last, and you're more likely to make money and be successful at your job. On average, happy people have stronger immune system s, and there is some evidence that they live longer.”
So who are the world's happiest people? It depends on how the word is defined. There is individual happiness, the sense of joy we get when we do something we like. But there is also the feeling of satisfaction we get when we know that others respect us and approve of how we behave. According to Professor Deiner, the Western world pursues individual happiness while Asia prefers mutual (相互的，彼此) satisfaction.
“In the West, the individualistic culture means that your mood matters much more than it does in the East. People ask themselves if they are doing what is fun or interesting. They become unhappy when they can't do any of these things. If you ask people from Japan or China if they are happy, they tend to look at what has gone wrong in their lives. If not much has gone wrong, then they are satisfied.”
People from Spain and other Spanish-speaking countries had the happiest culture, Professor Deiner found. “The biggest cultural difference is to do with pride and shame. Hispanic (西班牙语言的) cultures report much more pride and much less shame than others.”
Income also made a big difference to people's happiness, but only at the lowest levels. Average income earners in the US were much happier than people in poverty. But millionaires were only a little bit happier than people on average incomes. It seems that money makes us happy when we have enough to feel secure.
（1）According to the passage, happy people enjoy the following benefits except ______.
A.a long marriage
B.profession success
C.better health
D.respect from others
（2）What can be inferred from the fifth paragraph?
A.Hispanic cultures lay stress on pride and shame.
B.Spanish people take too much pride in themselves.
C.Attitude towards pride and shame results in Spanish happiness.
D.If you are from Spain, you are the happiest.
（3）In the last paragraph, the author seems to tell us ______.
A.Poor people enjoy the same happiness as millionaires
B.the higher income one gets, the happier life he lives
C.Enough money can make us feel safe and happy
D.Average income earners live the happiest life
（4）The passage mainly discusses ______.
A.cultural differences in happiness
B.reasons for happiness
C.the happiest culture
D.benefits of happiness

The central problem of translating has always been if to translate literally or freely. The argument has been going on until at least the first century BC. Up to the beginning of the 19th century, many writers was preferred some kind of “free” translation: the spirit, not the letter; the message rather than the form; the matter not the manner. This was the often revolution slogan of writers who wanted the truth to be read and understand. Then at the turn of 19th century, the view translation was impossible gained some currency. If attempting at all, it must be as literally as possible. This view peaked the statements of an extreme “literalists” Walter Benjamin and Vladimir Nabokov. Now, the context has changed, but the basic problem remained.

【题目】阅读短文，完成下列问题。
B
Although travelers can try dishes from around China and the globe in well-known food cities like Beijing and Shanghai, it is outside these major metropolises where a world of exciting Chinese cuisine(中国菜) awaits the true foodie(美食家). With this in mind and after three years of living in China and writing about Chinese food, I started a six-month journey with my husband and two daughters.
Here are four of the eight most amazing Chinese food cities I've come across so far. The list is in no particular order.
1 Chengdu, Sichuan Province
Crowned as Asia's first UNESCO City of Gastronomy(美食学) in 2010, Chengdu is best-known for its fiery hot pot and spicy dishes, which are characterized by the use of Sichuan pepper and are usually layered with salty, sour and sweet flavors. There are also dishes that aren't spicy at all, such as beer-braised duck.
Hot pot is as ubiquitous in the city as the smell of chili. At Zigong Delicious Hotpot, the house specialty(招牌菜) tiaoshui wa is a cauldron(大锅) of fiery chili(辣椒) to which vegetables, noodles or other meats can be added.
For a real taste of Sichuan's signature（招牌）pepper, hua jiao, spend a morning at the Chengdu Spice Market where the locals sell and buy it by the sack.
2 Lanzhou, Gansu Province
Synonymous in the minds of food-lovers with hand-pulled beef noodles, Lanzhou also has one of the liveliest street food night markets in China.
Just west of the city center, the buzzing Zhengning Road bazaar（集市）houses more than 100 street food stalls. Available is a broad selection of hot and cold dishes with emphasis on local Hui cuisine.
No trip to Lanzhou is complete without feasting on noodles at Wumule Penhui, the 2012 winners of Lanzhou's annual pulled noodle competition. The halal restaurant makes noodles spicy enough to satisfy even the most hardened heat-seekers.
3 Guangzhou, Guangdong Province
The birthplace of Cantonese food, Guangzhou is thought by many as the best place to eat in China. The city of 12 million has a passionate food culture, with equal excitement reserved for the opening of a hole-in-the-wall congee joint（粥店）and a high-end restaurant.
The local cuisine is characterized by fresh clean flavors（口味）, seafood, barbecued meats and the wonderful tradition of yum cha, which is tea drinking accompanied by dumplings and small dishes.
Congee is the way locals love to start their day, and one of the most popular vendors is Ru Xuan Sha Guo Zhou. Here, one can get a bowl of signature seafood congee any hour of the day.
Roast meats are Bing Sheng's most popular order—their roast goose is marinated（腌制）with five-spice, boiled, air-dried, then roasted by a flame oven to give a crisp skin.
For something more home style and removed from the madness of downtown, head to Ji Cun for steamed chicken and simple farmer-style dishes.
4 Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province
This ancient canal city is home to huangjiu, an amber-colored rice wine that's important in Chinese cooking.
Open since 1894, the dining chain is known by almost every Chinese for its appearance in early 20th century novels by Chinese literati Lu Xun.
Xianheng's delicacies（佳肴）include crispy-skinned chicken, smoked red dates in rice wine, beans flavored with fennel(茴香), and crispy bream in rice wine.
Fried fermented（发酵的）tofu is also a local specialty, which is available all over town at small street stalls including one just outside Xianheng.
（1）The writer's purpose of the passage is to ____________.
A.share her story and impression on Chinese cuisines
B.tell readers how to comment on amazing Chinese food cities
C.talk the readers into enjoying the signature food such as hand-pulled noodles
D.express her preference for fiery hot pot and spicy dishes in Chengdu.
（2）The underlined word “ubiquitous” can be replaced by ____________.
A.charming and attractive
B.smelly and disgusting
C.common and popular
D.fiery and spicy
（3）If a fresh clean flavor is to a foodie's taste, which couple of cities is he likely to make a trip to?
A.Chengdu, Lanzhou
B.Lanzhou, Guangzhou
C.Guangzhou, Shaoxing
D.Shaoxing, Chengdu
（4）According to the writer, what message of food culture is brought out in the passage?
A.Cantonese food is characterized by a sea of marinated dishes.
B.Huangjiu is widely believed to be essential in Chinese cooking.
C.Pepper, chili and huajiao play an important role in all Sichuan dishes.
D.Hand-pulled beef noodle is a speciality in local Hui cuisine.
