From my experience, there are three main reasons why people don't cook more often: ability, money and time. Money is a topic I'll save for another day. So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen. Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:
Think ahead. The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I' m already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat. So think ahead of the coming week. When will you have time to cook? Do
you have the right materials ready?
Make your time worth it. When you do find time to cook a meal, make the most of it and save yourself time later on. Are you making one loaf of bread?It takes around the same amount of time to make more of something. So save yourself the effort for a future meal.
This may surprise you, but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation(尝试). It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes(食谱) that can work well with your appetite and schedule. The more you learn and the more you try, the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.
Hopefully that gives you a good start. And don' t let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!
A.Try new things.
B.Ability is easily improved.
C.Make three or four instead.
D.Understand your food better.
E.Cooking is a burden for many people.
F.Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.
G.A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.

【答案】B;G;C;A;F
【解析】人们一般因为能力、财力和时间的原因而不能经常做饭,本文就如何在紧张的时间内抽出时间来自己做饭提出了三点建议。
(1)考查上下文的理解能力。根据上文From my experience, there are three main reasons why people don't cook more often: ability, money and time.和下文Money is a topic I'll save for another day. So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen.可知,根据我的经验,人们不经常做饭的三个主要原因是:能力、金钱和时间。钱的问题我改天说,今天我想给你们一些关于如何充分利用你在厨房的时间的聪明做法。因此推断B项“能力很容易提高”与上下文一致。所以答案是B。
(2)考查上下文的理解力。根据上文So think ahead of the coming week.可知,提前一周想好,在有空的时候准备好食材。因此推断G项“提前用一点儿时间来规划未来可以节省以后的很多工作” 与上下文一致。所以答案是G。
(3)考查上下文的理解能力。根据段落标题Make your time worth it.可知让时间用得值。因此推断做面包时,做三、四个而不是一个,可以给自己节省以后的时间,做一个和做三、四个面包所花费的时间差不多。所以答案是C。
(4)考查段落大意。本段讲述要敢于尝试,这样才会引起自己的食欲,才可以使自己用在做饭上的时间和努力值得。学得越多,尝试越多,控制食材和时间的能力就会越强。因此推断此段建议要尝试新事物。所以答案是A。
(5)考查上下文的理解能力。根据空格上下文可知,希望这些建议能给你一个良好的开端。不要让繁忙的日程打消你为了吃饭和生活所做的一些大变化!因此推断F项“(让烹饪和生活成为一种快乐,而不是负担”与上下文一致。所以答案是F。

【题目】阅读理解
Elizabeth Blackwell was the first woman doctor in the United States. Her success opened the way for other women who wanted to do more than nursing. She was born in England in 1821 and her family moved to America when she was eleven years old.
The Blackwell girls received the same education as their brothers. This was most unusual in those days. Their father died young and they had very little money to live on. Elizabeth and her sisters taught at school. Then a woman dying of cancer urged Elizabeth to study medicine, saying that a woman doctor would have saved her from her worst sufferings. Nearly everyone said a girl should not go to medical school, but she managed to enter Geneva College in New York State. She graduated in 1849 at the head of her class and received the first medical degree ever given to a woman.
Next, Dr. Blackwell went to Paris. Her only chance of training was in a hospital where women came to have their babies. Four months later, while she was working in the French hospital, her left eye became dangerously infected (感染). She lost the eye. She was very disappointed. But she was soon back at work again, this time in London, England. There she met many famous scientists.
In 1859, Elizabeth Blackwell was officially recognized as a doctor in Great Britain — the first woman to be honored. She was the inspiration of Elizabeth Garrett, who began the women's medical movement in England. Florence Nightingale, founder of the practice of nursing by women, was another of her friends.

【题目】阅读理解
Before coming to France, I always thought that French people wear formal clothes. But, when I arrived in Paris, I came to know why France could remain the lead in world fashion and Paris could attract so many designers (设计师) from all over the world to come.
On the boulevard of Champs-elysees, there are many fashion shops of famous brands, such as Chanel, Dior, Pierre Cardin. In daily life, however, most of Parisians never wear clothes like those on the super models. On the opposite (相反), I found people in Paris often dress in very simple designs and usually in dark.
Such situation doesn't affect French designers to create more and more new styles. But I would say people in Paris dress more formally than those in the rest of France. In other French cities, what people wear are usually casual (休闲) dresses, such as T-shirts and jeans.
French people act as the fashion leaders, but they accept other clothes styles as well. Montpellier, the city I live in, is in southern France near the Mediterranean Sea. Here are many immigrants (移民) from Algeria, Morocco and other African countries. The Arabian and African cultures are influential (有影响的) in this city. Therefore, you can find a lot of young people dress in the North African style.
(1)France could remain the lead in world fashion and Paris could attract so many designers from all over the world because .
A.French people never wear fashionable clothes
B.French designers are creative
C.French people accept fashionable clothes and other styles
D.both B and C
(2)Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A.The majority of Parisians always wear formal clothes.
B.Most of Parisians never wear fashionable clothes.
C.Parisians usually wear casual dresses like T- shirts and jeans.
D.Most Parisians often dress in simple designs and usually in dark.
(3)The underlined part “boulevard of Champs-elysees” possibly is .
A.a name of a famous street in Paris
B.a name of a famous person in Paris
C.a name of a famous city in France
D.a name of a famous brand in France

It was a village in India. The people were poor. However, they were not unhappy. After all, their forefathers had lived in the same way for centuries.
Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frog's legs. However, they did not have enough frogs of their own, and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.
This seemed like money for nothing. There were millions of frogs in the fields around, and they were no use to the villagers. All they had to do was catch them. Agreement was reached, and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. For the first time, the people were able to dream of a better future. But the dream didn't last long.
The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops were not doing so well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and, there seemed to be more insects around lately.
The villagers decided that they couldn't just wait to see the crops failing and the children getting weak. They would have to use the money earned to buy pesticides(杀虫剂) and medicines. Soon there was no money left.
Then the people realized what was happening. It was the frog. They hadn't been useless. They had been doing an important job---eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed, the insects were increasing more rapidly. They were damaging the crops and spreading diseases.
Now, the people are still poor. But in the evenings they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs. These sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning.
(1)From paragraph 1 we learn that the villagers __________.
A.worked very hard for centuries
B.dreamed of having a better life
C.were poor but somewhat pleased
D.lived a different life from their forefathers
(2)Why did the villagers agree to sell frogs?
A.The frogs were easy money.
B.They need money to buy medicine.
C.They wanted to please the visitors.
D.The frogs made too much noise.
(3)What might be the cause of the children' s sickness?
A.The crops didn't do well
B.There were too many insects
C.The visitors brought in diseases.
D.There were too many frogs.
(4)What can we infer from the last sentence of the text?
A.Happiness comes from peaceful life in the country.
B.Health is more important than money.
C.The harmony(和谐) between man and nature is important.
D.Good old days will never be forgotten.
