“ Whodoes the cooking in your home?” I 'moften asked by mycolleagues. “ Mywife and I share it 50/50,
I usually say without hesitation.
It ' s a lie, of course. We re pretty much even (相等的)when it comes to the children and the elderly.
But the paying of bills isn 't 50/50-my wife pays all sorts of household expenses, so I never even have to set eyes on them. And the cooking isn ' t 50/50, either.
The truth is that I am the cook. On my recent 40th birthday, I received the following gifts from my children: a new pot, two mini bottles of truffle oil, a decorative salad-dressing pourer, and a juice-making machine. For a moment I longed for something more manly, a cricket bat, perhaps, and then had to admit that all these things would be useful for me.
It ' s not that my wife can ' t or doesn ' t like to cook (she makes delicious Welsh cakes). Nor has
it always been this way. In the early years of our marriage I ' d be relaxing with a glass of wine while my wife prepared for dinner after work.
But at some point that changed and I became the cook. Ten years with my wife gave me the rewards-I
can throw together a roast, and I can make much foreign food. But I have truly become a monster
(怪物) in the kitchen, unable to keep myself away from cooking. “ You have to add Dijon to the sauce; it brings out the taste of the cheese, ” I volunteer, as mywife is cooking. “Quick, stir in the butter so the dish becomes delicious. ”
Is it any wonder that my wife has given up coming into the kitchen while I find the whole process
of chopping, mixing, and adding things deeply satisfying?
( )1 ．What do the writer and his wife probably share evenly at home?

任务型阅读专题 江苏省海安县西片11校联考2020-2021学年度第一学期八年级期中考试英语试卷 十、阅读与回答问题（本题共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） It seems that everybody tells lies —well, not big lies, but what we call “white lies”. Telling “white lies” isn’t really that bad. Most of the time, people do it because they w ant to protect a friendship. A survey (调查) shows that each person lies about seven times a day. The only real questions are about when we lie and who we tell lies to. Here are some reasons why people tell “white lies”. ◆Lying to hide something: People often lie because they want to hide something from someone. For example, Paul doesn’t tell his parents that he is going to play basketball because he doesn’t think they will agree. He tells a lie that he’s going to the library to study. ◆Lying to make someone feel good: Often we don’t tell the truth to make someone feel good. For example, your friend cooks dinner for you, but it doesn’t taste good. Do you say so? No! You probably say, “Mmm, this is delicious!” ◆Giving false (错误) excuses: Sometimes people lie be cause they don’t want to do something. For example, someone invites you to a party. You think it well be boring, so you say you’re busy. ◆Lying to hide bad news: Sometimes we don’t want to tell someone bad news. For example, you have just had a very bad da y at work, but you don’t want to talk about it. So if someone asks you about your day, you just say everything was fine. 106. How many reasons for telling “white lies” are mentioned (被提及) in the passage? ____________________________________________________________________________ 107. Why do people tell “white lies” most of the time? ____________________________________________________________________________ 108.What will you say to make your friend feel good though the dish he makes doesn’t taste good? ____________________________________________________________________________ 109. How often does each person lie according to (根据) a survey? ____________________________________________________________________________ 110. Do you like telling “white lies”? Why or why not? (请自拟一句话作答) ____________________________________________________________________________ 十、阅读与回答问题 106. Four. 107. Because they want to protect a friendship. / To protect a friendship. 108. I will say, “Mmm, this is delicious!” / Mmm, this is delicious! 109. About seven times a day. 110. 与短文话题一致、言之有理即可。 江苏省南通第一中学2020-2021学年第一学期八年级英语期中考试试题 C 最合适的选项与左栏相搭配，并将答案的字母编号填写在题前的括号内。
