【题目】For the rest of March, a disease will sweep across the US. It will keep kids home from school. 【1】 Employees will suddenly lose their ability to concentrate.
The disease, known as “March Madness”， refers to the yearly 65team US men's college basketball tournament (锦标赛). 【2】 Teams compete against each other in a singleelimination (单局淘汰) tournament that eventually crowns a national champion.
Nearly 20 million Americans will find themselves prisoners of basketball festival madness. The fun comes partly from guessing the winners for every game. Friends compete against friends. 【3】 Colleagues against bosses.
Bigname schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament. But each year there are dark horses from littleknown universities.
This adds to the madness. Watching a team from a school with 3,000 students beat a team from a school with 30,000, for many Americans, is an exciting experience. Two years ago, the littleknown George Mason University was one of the final four teams. 【4】
College basketball players are not paid, so the game is more about making a name for their university and themselves. 【5】 About $4 billion will be spent gambling (赌) on the event. According to Media Life magazine, the event will bring in $500 million in advertising income this year, topping the post－ season income of every US professional league, including that of the NBA.
A．Husbands against wives.
B．The players will go all out for the games.
C．But that doesn't mean money isn't involved.
D．College students will ignore piles of homework.
E．People are willing to spend more money on watching it.
F．It begins on March 15 and lasts through the beginning of April.
G．Many people had never even heard of the university before the tournament.
【答案】
【1】【1】D
【2】【2】F
【3】【3】A
【4】【4】G
【5】【5】C
【解析】试题分析:在每年的三月份举行的美国男子大学篮球锦标赛使得美国人为之疯狂，文章介绍了这个比赛的比赛形式和内容。
【1】【1】D 考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。前句提到了学生不再去学校上学，由此判断而D选项内容College students will ignore piles of homework.恰好符合语境，起到承接作用，故选D。

【题目】Yuoki, a restaurant in Germany, is not your everyday all-you-can-eat buffet (自助餐）. For starters, there isn't an actual buffet to fill your plate. Instead, customers are seated at a table and provided with iPads which they can use to order up to five small dishes every ten minutes. They can eat as much as they want for 120 minutes, but having the food served at short intervals (间隔) allows diners to constantly assess how hungry they are and order accordingly, preventing food waste. Also, the owner, Luan Guoyu, believes, “our eyes are bigger than our stomach”, so not being able to see the cooked food at the buffet prevents people from ordering more food than they can actually eat.
But Luan Guoyu's most effective way of fighting food waste, and the one that has attracted media attention, is his 1 ($1.15) fine for food still left on the plate. “It’s called ‘ all-you-can-eat’ ” he says, adding that the extra charge is not meant to increase his income, but to act as a warning against wasting food.
Luan Guoyu's system is unique in the state of Baden-Wurttemberg, but not in Germany. Okinii, a Japanese-style restaurant in Dusseldorf, has also been charging customer, the same 1 tax for unfinished food on their plates since 2013.
With so many people living on the edge of their nations, and food waste becoming a serious problem in developed countries, it will be interesting to see if more restaurants will start carrying out the “eat up or pay up” policy. Even if they give the money from this fine to charity, it would still help them to save money in dealing with waste, so it's a win for everyone.
【1】What does the underlined word “assess” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Doubt. B. Realize.
C. Judge. D. Compare.
【2】What will Luan Guoyu do when people can’t finish the food on their plates?
A. He will charge them extra money.
B. He will advise them to eat up the food.
C. He will ask them to take the food away.
D. He will warn them to order less food next time.
【3】What is the text mainly about?
A. Various German restaurants.
B. The seriousness of food waste.
C. Secrets of managing a restaurant.
D. Special ways to fight food waste.
【4】What does the author think of the “eat up or pay up” policy?
A. Unfair. B. Funny.
C. Reasonable. D. Doubtful.

【题目】As an effect of the high fuel prices spent on bus transportation, some American schools are changing to a four-day week. That means longer days instead of the traditional Monday through Friday schedule.
Having been approved for three years and beginning in the fall, students in the Maccray school district in Minnesota will be in school from Tuesday to Friday. Each school day will be 65 minutes longer. Officials say the district expects to save about sixty-five thousand dollars a year in transportation costs.
In new Mexico, the first school district changed to a four-day week in 1974 because of the Arab oil boycott(抵制). Now, 17 out of 89 districts use it.
In Custer, South Dakota, students have been going to school four days a week since 1995. Superintendent Tim Creal says the change has saved about one million dollars over just the past eight years. He sees other benefits, too. Students get more instructional time, and activities that used to take up class time are now held on non-school days. He says that in the future, the growth of online classes could make it possible to require even fewer days in school. High fuel prices are driving college students to take more online classes.
A four-day school week sounds like a great idea for students and teachers, but working parents may have to pay for child care for that fifth day.
【1】According to Tim Creal, what makes it possible to have even fewer days in school?
A. The increasing number of private tutors.(私人教师)
B. The development of teaching methods.
C. The increase in the number of online classes.
D. The growth in the income of Americans.
【2】It can be learned from the passage that______
A. students will be in school from Monday to Tuesday.
B. four-day week was first carried out in South Dakota.
C. Maccray will save one million dollars every year.
D. Minnesota state has approved the four-day week plan
【3】The passage is mainly about______
A. some school’s four-day week plan
B. districts using a four-day week.
C. how to save on transportation fees.
D. expense of school transportation.

【题目】A new research shows that in Britain more and more people are returning to the old tradition that the whole family has a meal at table. Worrying about the obesity(肥胖症) and breakdown of a family, people change their eating habits so greatly, according to analysis. They find the number of the family having a meal together increases by 5% from 2002 to 2004, and most people who have meals with their family come from the rich social class.
The new discovery makes doctors and the people struggling against obesity extremely excited. Giving up the tradition that the whole family have a meal together is exactly one of the reasons for a series of problems including children’s overweight. If a child has a meal in front of the television or the computer alone, he will often eat some fast food.
Jason Collins is one of the persons returning to the old tradition. Collins is a manager of a bake house. He finds after he gets used to having a meal at home with his child, the child becomes much more obedient(听话的). Dr. Jin is a child psychologist, and she expresses welcome to this result of the study. She says it can make parents have a very good chance to chat with the child when the whole family have a meal together.
【1】What makes people change their eating habit back to the old tradition in Britain?
A. Worrying about their children
B. Worrying about some social problems
C. Worrying about the living expense
D. Worrying about health and family problems
