17.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 (間隔)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‘a(chǎn)ll-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.
 
21.What does the underlined word"assess"in Paragraph 1 probably mean?C
A.Doubt.B.Realize.
C.Judge.D.Compare.
22.What will Luan Guoyu do when people can't finish the food on their plates?A
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.
23.What is the text mainly about?D
A.Various German restaurants.
B.The seriousness of food waste.
C.Secrets of managing a restaurant.
D.Special ways to fight food waste.
24.What does the author think of the"eat up or pay up"policy?C
A.Unfair.
B.Funny.
C.Reasonable.
D.Doubtful.

分析 本文講述了自助餐店減少食物浪費的幾個方法.通過一系列處罰措施,可以有效地減少食物浪費.

解答 21-24  CADC
21.C 考查詞意猜測.根據(jù)常理,自助餐是可以在120分鐘內(nèi)想吃多少就吃多少,但是短時間內(nèi)要讓用餐者不斷地判斷他們的饑餓程度.所以該詞的意思是"判斷".故選C.
22.A 考查細節(jié)理解.根據(jù)"adding that the extra charge is not meant to increase his income,but to act as a warning against wasting food"可知,添加額外的費用不是為了增加他的收入,而是作為浪費食物的一個警告.故選A.
23.D 考查文章主旨.根據(jù)文章中提到的幾個針對食物浪費的措施可知,本文要講的是反對食物浪費的方法.故選D.
24.C 考查推理判斷."eat up or pay up"這一政策可以有效減少食物浪費,所以讀者是會認為這一政策是合理的.故選C.

點評 閱讀理解考察學生的細節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力,做細節(jié)理解題時一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進行比較,再做出正確的選擇.在做推理判斷題不要以個人的主觀想象代替文章的事實,要根據(jù)文章事實進行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.

15.Adults are happy to tell their children that crusts (面包皮) will give them curly hair,carrots will help them see in the dark,and spinach will make them strong.Even though adults know it's not totally true,they think it's good for their children's health,a study had found.
In a study about 31per cent of adults said they once told their children the curly hair tale,and 36per cent said they'd been told the same thing by their mother or father.Among the over-50s,almost half said they'd been promised curly hair if they ate their crusts.A quarter of the 2,000adults questioned in the study told their children carrots would help them see in the dark.This could be true to some extent because of the high levels of vitamin A and beta-carotene in root vegetables.
Another favorite among parents is that milk will make one strong.A third surveyed said their parents told them this,and about 29per cent said they told their children the same thing.But while there is plenty of evidence to suggest milk is good for people's health,there are also a lot of scientific papers saying it isn't.
Thanks to Popeye,spinach is also fed to children,along with the idea that it will make them strong.While there is also some truth in this one,scientists now believe it is not the iron,but the inorganic nitrates (無機硝酸鹽) that improve physical power.
One in seven of the surveyed admitted telling their little ones that runner beans will make them run faster,which is nothing more than wordplay and has no basis in science.Almost one in five adults were subjected to the same tale in childhood.
Just over one in 10parents told their children green food would turn them into a superhero,and a quarter admitted hiding vegetables in meals.
Lyndsay Jones,spokesman for Persil Washing Up Liquid,said,"It's clear that the most persuasive stories about food are passed on from generation to generation.Our research shows that the ideas continue,and we tell our kids the same things our parents told us,even if they're not always entirely true."
Crusts may not make your hair curly,but there's plenty of research that says crusts contain more of the goodness than the rest of a loaf.Hopefully,as a result of our Cook with Kids promise,more parents will be encouraged to spend time with their children in the kitchen and teach them the truth about food.

32.We can know from Paragraph 3thatC.
A.a(chǎn) third people are forced to drink milk by their parents
B.milk is beneficial to children's physical strength
C.there is doubt whether milk is helpful to people's health
D.a(chǎn)bout 29percent people wish their children good health
33.Which of the following does Lyndsay Jones agree?D
A.Adults are willing to teach their children as their parents did.
B.Most persuasive stories about food are false.
C.Stories about food shouldn't be passed on from generation to generation.
D.Parents can't make sure if some stories about food are totally true.
34.We can learn from the passage thatB.
A.scientists think the iron in spinach helps children grow strong
B.parents are expected to tell children the truth about food
C.runner beans can really make children run fast
D.crusts are said to contain less nutrition than a loaf
35.How is the passage mainly developed?C
A.By following time order
B.By making comparisons.
C.By giving examples
D.By analyzing causes.
