In the morning light, I could see the shadows that were etched(蚀刻）deep within the lines surrounding his eyes.‎ Each morning I walked this route with my daughter to her kindergarten class. We were new to the neighborhood so that I didn’t know many of my neighbors. On one ‎ beautiful autumn morning, as we passed his house, my daughter called out to him, “Hi, Mr. Man!” Always knowing she was an outgoing child, I wasn’t surprised at her enthusiasm. But her cheerfulness soon faded when the man didn’t look at her and say “Hi” back.‎ As we continued on our walk to school, my daughter asked why the man didn’t want to say hi to her. Because I didn’t have an answer, I said simply, “ Maybe he is having a bad day.” Later I knew that Bob lost his wife in a car accident.‎ A few days later, as we approached Bob’s house on our way to school, my daughter called out “Hi, Man!” and as usual, he didn’t respond. But then she ran onto his front lawn and picked up a beautiful red autumn leaf. She continued up one step and handed it to him. I held my breath.‎ As she skipped back to me, she said, “See you tomorrow, Mr. Man!” This time, he acknowledged her. In a soft and gentle voice, he thanked her and said, “See you tomorrow.”‎ From then on, Bob and my daughter exchanged greetings each morning. Our friendship with Bob continued for many years. But the sweetest day is the day when Bob attended my daughter’s high school graduation. Bob gave my daughter a gift--- a book on identifying various plants and trees. There, tucked in the pages that described an oak tree, was the leaf my daughter had given to Mr. Man when they first met. He had dried and pressed it and kept it all those years.‎ 5. What puzzled the girl?‎ A. The cause of the man’s sadness.‎ B. The shadows in the man’s eyes.‎ C. The man’s sitting still on the steps.‎ D. The man’s not answering her greeting.‎ 6.

Each one has its own language and traditions. But the people of Belgium are united in their love for Belgian potato fries. The fries are prepared and sold the same way in all areas of the country.‎ The Reuters news service reports that potatoes reached Belgium in the 16th century. But it was not until the 19th century that restaurants and others began selling fried potatoes throughout the country as a separate meal.‎ Recently, a Belgian group launched a campaign aimed at getting the United Nations to recognize the popular treat. The group wants the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization to place the food on its cultural heritage(遗产) list.‎ The UNESCO list recognizes more than 300 objects, beliefs, and practices. They include Turkish coffee and the traditional Chinese theater known as Peking Opera. The list also includes a dance, the Argentinian tango, and the singing of the Aka pygmies of the Central African Republic. UNESCO says the list is “made up of intangible heritage elements (非物质文化遗产元素）that help show the diversity of heritage and raise awareness about its importance”.‎ Belgian potato fries are traditionally sold in a paper wrapper, or cone, in a “frikot”. There are about 5,000 fritkots in Belgium. That means they are 10 times more common than McDonald’s restaurants in the United States. The national organization of fritkot owners says the small, often unfurnished buildings are much like Belgium itself. It says these buildings combine the country’s acceptance of disorder with a dislike of structures that all look the same. The group says 95 percent of Belgians visit a fried potato hut at least once a year.‎ 9. Belgian potato fries ________.‎ A. were recognized by UNESCO A. are well received in Belgium B. are sold in all food stores.‎ C. didn’t become a separate meal until the 16th century.‎ 8. What’s the aim of the Belgian group?‎ ‎ A. To place Belgian potato fries on the cultural heritage list.‎ ‎ B. To prevent other countries producing Belgian potato fries.‎ ‎ C. To show the diversity of Belgian foods.‎ ‎ D. To prove the popularity of Belgian foods.‎ 9. Which of the following is NOT listed in the UNESCO list?‎ ‎ A. Peking Opera. B. The Argentinian tango.‎ ‎ C. Turkish coffee D. American restaurants.‎ 10. What does the underlined word “fritkot” in the last paragraph probably refer to?‎ ‎ A. A simple house which is used to live in ‎ B. A kind of small, unfurnished building.‎ ‎ C. A place where machines are used to make goods.‎ ‎ D. A piece of paper, plastic, or thin metal that covers something.‎ D Run out of cooking oil or need some dressing for your salad? The solution may be insects from your backyard! Scientists are turning insects into a source of healthy oil. Even though insects are a food source in some parts of the world, to many people, the thought of eating them is very disgusting.‎ ‎“In the western countries, there is no culture of eating entire insects, so when the idea is to use the protein in powder as an ingredient, people might tend to receive this better protein even if they can’t see it,” said researcher Daylan Tzompas-Sosa. “There are many uses for the oil in general, but we are investigating the use of these oils for a food, as a food ingredient.”‎ The Mexican researcher, working in the Netherlands, said insects are a great source of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids, which can help treat anxiety disorder symptoms. Backing up the increased reliance on insects is the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization. In a 2013 report, the UN agency allowed the cultivation of bugs as a food ‎ source, saying it’s environmentally friendly and could boost the world’s food production.‎ There are clear reasons that experts advise people to eat the insects. Experts say insects require little food to grow and the backyard can be a good place to raise them. And there’s no shortage of protein-rich insects, which contain fat, vitamins, fiber and minerals.‎ Researchers say different bugs provide unique tastes and textures. “This is very liquid and it has a different color, so this can be used as a dressing and it’s easy to use and this can be used for pastry, because for pastry you need hard fats,” stated Tzompas-Sosa.‎ But not all insects produce good oil. Cockroaches don’t. The bug oils must be tested to make sure they are safe to consume. But getting over the “ick factor” may be a bigger challenge.‎ 8. What is the author’s attitude towards the use of bug oils？‎ A. Doubtful B. Objective C. Supportive D. Unfavorable. ‎ 9. Why do experts suggest eating the insects?‎ A. They are rich in minerals.‎ B. They have different colors.‎ C. They taste good.‎ D. They’re easy to raise.‎ 10. From the last paragraph, we can learn that __________.‎ A. all insects cannot produce good oil B. the bug oils are the most delicious C. it’s safe to consume the bug oils D. the use of bug oils is banned 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ ‎ History is a record of what has happened in the past. 16______. The really fascinating thing is that much of history has been repeated time and again. It allows us ‎ to learn from the past, both the mistakes and the successes.‎ One of the benefits of history is reading how other people have overcome tremendous challenges in their life. These challenges, although particular to a person, or to a certain time in the past, or occurring in a different country or culture, all convey the same thing.17.______.‎ 18. ‎______.
