【题目】 There are hundreds of grape varieties in Japan, but only one can sell for several hundred dollars per grape. The Ruby Roman was cultivated in Japan’ s Ishikawa Prefecture and is considered one of the world’ s most expensive fruits.

The story of Ruby Roman began in 1995, when Ishikawa grape farmers appealed to the government to create a large red grape variety. 400 experimental vines(葡萄树)were planted into a test field. Two years later; they started bearing fruit. However, out of the 400 vines, only 4 turned out to be red grapes, and only one of them was considered large enough to meet the farmers’ expectations. Over the next 14 years, researchers constantly improved its size, taste, color and ease of planting, and today Ruby Roman is considered a “treasure of Ishikawa”.

In 2008, soon after making its commercial debut(首秀), the Ruby Roman grape variety made international headlines after a 700-gram bunch sold for 10,000 yen$910, or $26 per grape. Eight years later, a 26-grape bunch sold for 1.1 million yen$11,000, or roughly $370 per grape.

While the Ruby Roman name is used to describe a type of grapes, every bunch must meet very strict standards. For example, every grape in the bunch must weigh at least 20 grams and have a sugar content of at least 18 percent. There is also a Premium class of Ruby Roman grapes—each grape must weigh over 30 grams, and the whole bunch must be at least 700 grams heavy.

Most bunches of Ruby Roman grapes are sold through auctions(拍卖), but Premium Ruby Rose are extremely difficult to find. For example, in 2010, only six bunches of grapes were certified Premium, and in 2011 no bunches qualified for it.

And if you’ re wondering how the Ruby Roman name came to be, it was apparently voted by local residents(居民)out of 639 different names.

1The underlined word“cultivated”in the first paragraph can be best replaced by”_________”.

A.discoveredB.preserved

C.developedD.promoted

2According to the second paragraph, Ruby Roman _________.

A.is widely planted in JapanB.does not come easily

C.used to be a treasure of IshikawaD.is more productive than expected

3What’s the author’s purpose in listing a number of figures in paragraph 3 ?

A.To explain how large Ruby Roman grapes are.

B.To tell how profitable planting Ruby Roman is.

C.To prove how popular Ruby Roman is globally.

D.To show how expensive Ruby Roman grapes are.

4What does the text say about the Ruby Roman grape?

A.It’s named after its birthplace.

B.It isn’t available in abundance.

C.It doesn’t refer to only one grape variety.

D.Its price has nothing to do with its color.

【题目】 Want to pick up that new best-seller for your flight, but not sure you want to spend the money?

This will change your mind.

If you’ve done a lot of traveling, you’ve probably noticed that the bookstores at airports all look pretty similar. They’ve all got familiar logos, the walls of inviting plane snacks, and, of course, the towers of new hardcover books. Chances are you’ve wanted to grab one of those books for the plane ride. However, those hardcover books are a little pricey. Is it worth it to splurge, just to relieve the midair boredom?

Yes it is—because of a cool program that these bookstores have in place. These similar airport stores are all owned by the company Paradies Lagardère, and all of those stores take part in what’s called the “Read and Return program.” It’s exactly what it sounds like. Whenever you buy one of those books, you’ve got six months to finish it and bring it back to the same, or another, Paradies Lagardère location. When you do that, you get half your money for the original purchase back.

If you’re going on a trip, buy that book you’ve been dying to read. When you go back to the airport for the return trip, bring the book back with you and get half the money back. While you’re still in the bookstore, go ahead and get that other book you’ve been dying to read. Or the sequel to the book you read on the way there. Either way, your boredom on the flight back will be cured. And it gets better: the book you gave back will be re-sold for half price! Here’s what you can get for free at an airport.

There are two things you do need to make sure of. You have to bring back the receipt to get your money back. Also, the book needs to be in decent condition. But other than that, this program couldn’t be easier. In a way, it’s like a buy-one-get-one-half-off deal for books. Or get two books for the price of one-and-a-half. Either way, count us in.

1What does the underlined word “splurge” in paragraph 2 mean?

A.Spend the money.B.Take the effort.

C.Take the trouble.D.Spend the time.

2How does the “Read and Return program” run?

A.You can read books for free in any Paradies Lagardère store.

B.You can buy books for half price in airport bookstores.

C.You need to return the book to the same store where you buy it.

D.You can get half your money back if you return the book timely.

3What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A.It is difficult to take part in the program.

B.The receipt is necessary if you want to return the book.

C.The program is popular with readers.

D.The program runs successfully.

4Why does the author write this passage?

A.To encourage people to read on airplanes.

B.To introduce Paradies Lagardère company.

C.To advertise the “Read and Return program”.

D.To show the advantages of reading on airplanes.
