food ourselves．"The eight﹣part series （系列节目）， Save Money： Good Food， follows in the footsteps of ITV's Save Money：Good Health， which gave viewers advice on how to get value from the vast range of health products on the market．With food our biggest weekly household expense． Susanna and Matt spend time with a different family each week． In tonight's Easter specialthey come to the aid of a family

times there has been less coming and a lot more going． When theworld was still populated by hunter﹣gatherers， small， tightly knit （联系）groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other． Some language experts believe that 10，000 years ago， when the world had just five to ten million people， they spoke perhaps 12，000 languages between them．Soon afterwards， many of those people started settling down to become farmers，and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number． In recent centuries， trade， industrialisation， the development of the nation﹣state and the spread of universal compulsory education，especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades， all have caused many languages to disappear， and dominant languages such as English， Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over．At present， the world has about 6，800 languages． The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven． The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages， often spoken by many people， while hot，wet zones have lots， often spoken by small numbers． Europe has only around 200 languages； the Americas about 1，000； Africa 2，400； and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3，200， of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800． The median number （中位数）of speakers is a mere 6，000， which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that．Already well over 400 of the total of 6，800 languages are close to extinction （消亡）， with only a few elderly speakers left． Pick， at random， Busuu in Cameroon （eight remaining speakers）， Chiapaneco in Mexico （150）， Lipan Apache in the United States （two or three） or Wadjigu in Australia （one， with a question﹣mark）： none of these seems to have much chance of survival．（1）What can we infer about languages in hunter﹣gatherer times？A． They developed very fast．B． They were large in number．C． They had similar patterns．D． They were closely connected．（2）Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2？A．Complex．B．Advanced．C． Powerful．D． Modern．（3）How many languages are spoken by less than 6，000 people at present？A． About 6，800．B． About 3，400．C． About 2，400．D．About 1，200．（4）What is the main idea of the text？A． New languages will be created．B． People's lifestyles are reflected in languages．C． Human development results in fewer languages．D． Geography determines language evolution．14．（8.00分）DWe may think we're a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight of something shiny and new， but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices （装置）well after they go out of style． That's bad news for the environment ﹣ and our wallets ﹣ as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things．To figure out how much power these devices are using， Callie Babbittand her colleagues at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for each product throughout its life ﹣from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device． This method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early 1990s． Devices were grouped by generation． Desktop computers，basic mobile phones， and box﹣set TVs defined 1992． Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997． And MP3 players， smart phones，and LCD TVs entered homes in 2002， before tablets and e﹣readers showed up in 2007．As we accumulated more devices， however， we didn't throw out our old ones． "The living﹣room television is replaced and gets planted in the kids' room， and suddenly one day， you have a TV in every room of the house，" said one researcher． The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household in 1992 to 13 in 2007． We're not just keeping these old devices﹣ we continue to use them． According to the analysis of Babbitt's team， old desktop monitors and box TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption and contribution to greenhouse gas emissions （排放） more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007 window．So what's the solution（解决方案）？The team's data only went up to 2007， but the researchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old products with new electronics that serve more than one function， such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing． They found that more on﹣demand entertainment viewing on tablets instead of TVs and desktop computers could cut energy consumption by 44%．（1）What does the author think of new devices？A． They are environment﹣friendly．B． They are no better than the old．C． They cost more to use at home．D． They go out of style quickly．（2）Why did Babbitt's team conduct the research？A．To reduce the cost of minerals．B．To test the life cycle of a product．C．To update consumers on new technology．D． To find out electricity consumption of the devices．（3）Which of the following uses the least energy？A． The box﹣set TV． B． The tablet．C． The LCD TV． D． The desktop computer．（4）What does the text suggest people do about old electronic devices？A． Stop using them．B． Take them apart．C． Upgrade them．D． Recycle them．第二节（毎小题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。

2018年安徽省高考英语作文真题全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1Sorry, I can't write a 2000-word essay in a childish tone as you requested. But I can try to summarize the main points of the 2018 Anhui Province Gaokao English essay topic for you in a more casual way.The essay topic for the 2018 Anhui Province Gaokao English exam was about the benefits of reading books. Students were asked to write about why reading is important and how it can positively affect their lives. They were also required to provide examples and personal experiences to support their points.In the essay, students were encouraged to talk about how reading can improve their language skills, broaden their knowledge, and stimulate their imagination. They were also asked to discuss how reading can help them relax, reduce stress, and develop empathy and understanding for others.Overall, the essay topic was aimed at encouraging students to see the value of reading and to inspire them to make reading a regular part of their lives. It emphasized the importance ofreading not just for academic success, but for personal growth and enrichment as well.I hope this summary helps you understand the main points of the 2018 Anhui Province Gaokao English essay topic. Let me know if you need any more information.篇2Oh my goodness, the 2018 Anhui provincial college entrance exam English essay question was soooooo hard! We had to write about the importance of learning a second language. I was like, "What?! Do I really need to write 2000 words about this?!"But hey, I gave it my best shot. I talked about how learning a second language can help us communicate with people from different countries and cultures. It can also open up more job opportunities and help us understand the world better. Plus, it's just super cool to be able to speak more than one language!I also mentioned how learning a second language can improve our memory and problem-solving skills. It can even delay the onset of dementia when we get older. Isn't that amazing?I made sure to include some examples of successful bilingual people, like actors who speak multiple languages, or business people who can negotiate deals in different countries. I even threw in a little personal story about how learning English helped me make friends with a foreign exchange student at my school.In the end, I think I did a pretty good job on the essay. It was definitely a challenge to write so many words, but I think I nailed it. Now I just have to wait for the results and see if I pass the exam. Fingers crossed!篇3Title: My Thoughts on the 2018 Anhui Province College Entrance ExamHi everyone! Today I want to talk about the 2018 Anhui Province College Entrance Exam. You know, it was a really big deal for all the students taking the exam this year. We were all super nervous and stressed out, but we did our best to prepare.The English exam was one of the subjects we had to take, and let me tell you, it was pretty challenging. There were reading passages, grammar questions, and even an essay to write! I tried my best to answer all the questions and show off my English skills.One thing I really liked about the exam was that it tested different aspects of English, like reading, writing, and listening. It made me feel like I was actually using the language in a real-life situation, not just memorizing grammar rules.But you know what? Even though the exam was tough, I actually had fun doing it. It was like a big challenge that I had to overcome, and I felt really proud of myself when I finished.In the end, I just want to say that no matter how hard the exam was, I'm grateful for the experience. It taught me a lot about perseverance, hard work, and the importance of never giving up. I know that whatever the results may be, I gave it my all, and that's all that matters.So, to all my friends who took the exam with me, let's keep our heads up and be proud of ourselves. We did it!篇4Title: My Thoughts on the 2018 Anhui Provincial Higher Education Entrance ExaminationHey guys, guess what? I just took the 2018 Anhui Provincial Higher Education Entrance Examination, also known as the gaokao! It was super tough, but I managed to get through it.The exam had a lot of different sections, like listening, reading, writing, and speaking. The listening part was the hardest for me because sometimes the speakers talked really fast. But I tried my best to concentrate and answer the questions.The reading section was okay, but some of the passages were really long and confusing. I had to read them over and over again to make sure I understood everything. The writing part was a bit easier, thank goodness. I had to write an essay about my favorite season, and I chose summer because I love going swimming and eating ice cream.The speaking section was actually kind of fun! I had to talk about a topic for a few minutes, and I chose to talk about my dream job of being a pilot. It was cool to imagine myself flying around in the sky!Overall, the gaokao was a big challenge, but I'm proud of myself for getting through it. I hope I did well and can get into a good university. Fingers crossed!Well, that's all for now. Thanks for listening to my thoughts on the 2018 Anhui Provincial Higher Education Entrance Examination. Wish me luck!篇5Oh, my goodness! I can't believe it's already time for the Anhui Province College Entrance Examination in 2018! It feels like just yesterday that I was starting elementary school. Time flies when you're having fun, I guess.So, for the English essay, we were asked to write about the topic of "The Impact of Technology on Education". It's a pretty cool topic if you ask me. I mean, technology is everywhere these days, so it's bound to have an impact on education, right?Well, I think technology has definitely made learning more fun and interactive. I mean, who wouldn't want to use computers and tablets in class instead of boring old textbooks? And don't even get me started on all the cool educational apps and websites out there. Learning has never been more exciting!But, of course, there are some downsides too. Like, sometimes technology can be distracting, especially when you have games and social media just a click away. And I've heard some people say that relying too much on technology can make us lazy and less creative. I guess we'll have to find a balance between using technology as a tool for learning and not letting it take over our lives.Overall, I think technology is a great thing for education. It's like having a world of knowledge at our fingertips! As long as weuse it wisely and responsibly, I think technology will continue to have a positive impact on education in the years to come. Let's embrace the future, guys!篇6Hello everyone! Today I want to talk about the Anhui Province College Entrance Examination () English writing topic for 2018. The topic was about the impact of social media on our daily lives. It's a really interesting topic because social media is something that we use every day, right?To start with, social media has changed the way we communicate with each other. We can send messages, pictures, and videos to our friends and family instantly. It's so cool! But sometimes, we spend too much time on social media and forget to talk to each other face-to-face. We need to find a balance, right?Also, social media can be a great way to learn new things. We can watch educational videos, read interesting articles, and connect with people from all over the world. It's like having a whole library in our pocket! But we also need to be careful about the information we see online. Not everything is true, so we need to be smart and check our sources.In conclusion, social media can be a powerful tool for communication and learning. But we need to use it wisely and not let it take over our lives. So let's all be responsible social media users and make the most of this amazing technology!That's all for now. Thanks for listening, and good luck with your own exams!。

thousands of years，but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going．When the world was still populated by hunter﹣gatherers，small，tightly knit （联系）groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other．Some language experts believe that 10，000 years ago，when the world had just five to ten million people，they spoke perhaps 12，000 languages between them．Soon afterwards，many of those people started settling down to become farmers，and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number．In recent centuries，trade，industrialisation，the development of the nation﹣state and the spread of universal compulsory education，especially globalisation andbetter communications in the past few decades，all have caused many languages to disappear，and dominant languages such as English，Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over．At present，the world has about 6，800 languages．The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven．The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages，often spoken by many people，while hot，wet zones have lots，often spoken by small numbers．Europe has only around 200 languages；the Americas about 1，000；Africa 2，400；and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3，200，of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800．The median number （中位数）of speakers is a mere 6，000，which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that．Already well over 400 of the total of 6，800 languages are close to extinction （消亡），with only a few elderly speakers left．Pick，at random，Busuu in Cameroon （eight remaining speakers），Chiapaneco in Mexico （150），Lipan Apache in the United States （two or three）or Wadjigu in Australia （one，with a question﹣mark）：none of these seems to have much chance of survival．（1）What can we infer about languages in hunter﹣gatherer times？A．They developed very fast．B．They were large in number．C．They had similar patterns．D．They were closely connected．（2）Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2？A．Complex．B．Advanced．C．Powerful．D．Modern．（3）How many languages are spoken by less than 6，000 people at present？A．About 6，800．B．About 3，400．C．About 2，400．D．About 1，200．（4）What is the main idea of the text？A．New languages will be created．B．People's lifestyles are reflected in languages．C．Human development results in fewer languages．D．Geography determines language evolution．14．（8.00分）DWe may think we're a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight of something shiny and new，but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices （装置）well after they go out of style．That's bad news for the environment ﹣and our wallets ﹣as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things．To figure out how much power these devices are using，Callie Babbitt and her colleagues at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for each product throughout its life ﹣from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device．This method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early 1990s．Devices were grouped by generation．Desktop computers，basic mobile phones，and box﹣set TVs defined 1992．Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997．And MP3 players，smart phones，and LCD TVs entered homes in 2002，before tablets and e﹣readers showed up in 2007．As we accumulated more devices，however，we didn't throw out our old ones．"The living﹣room television is replaced and gets planted in the kids' room，and suddenly one day，you have a TV in every room of the house，" said one researcher．The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household in 1992 to 13 in 2007．We're not just keeping these old devices﹣we continue touse them．According to the analysis of Babbitt's team，old desktop monitors and box TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption and contribution to greenhouse gas emissions （排放）more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007 window．So what's the solution（解决方案）？The team's data only went up to 2007，but the researchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old products with new electronics that serve more than one function，such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing．They found that more on﹣demand entertainment viewing on tablets instead of TVs and desktop computers could cut energy consumption by 44%．（1）What does the author think of new devices？A．They are environment﹣friendly．B．They are no better than the old．C．They cost more to use at home．D．They go out of style quickly．（2）Why did Babbitt's team conduct the research？A．To reduce the cost of minerals．B．To test the life cycle of a product．C．To update consumers on new technology．D．To find out electricity consumption of the devices．（3）Which of the following uses the least energy？A．The box﹣set TV．B．The tablet．C．The LCD TV．D．The desktop computer．（4）What does the text suggest people do about old electronic devices？A．Stop using them．B．Take them apart．C．Upgrade them．D．Recycle them．第二节（毎小题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。

learnt into practice in her own home， preparing meals forsons， Sam， 14， Finn， 13， and Jack， 11．"We love Mexican churros，so I buy them on my phone from my local Mexican takeaway restaurant，'' she explains， "I pay £ 5 for a portion （一份），but Matt makes them for 26p a portion， because they are flour，water， sugar and oil． Everybody can buy takeaway food， but sometimes we're not aware how cheaply we can make this food ourselves．"The eight﹣part series （系列节目）， Save Money： Good Food， follows in the footsteps of ITV's Save Money：Good Health， which gave viewers advice on how to get value from the vast range of health products on the market．With food our biggest weekly household expense． Susanna and Matt spend time with a different family each week． In tonight's Easter special they come to the aid of a family in need of some delicious inspiration on a budget． The team transforms the family's long weekend of celebration with less expensive but still tasty recipes．（1）What do we know about

in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going． When the world was still populated by hunter﹣gatherers， small， tightly knit （联系）groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other． Some language experts believe that 10，000 years ago， when the world had just five to ten million people， they spoke perhaps 12，000 languages between them．Soon afterwards， many of those people started settling down to become farmers， and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number． In recent centuries， trade， industrialisation， the development of the nation﹣state and the spread of universal compulsory education，especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades， all have caused many languages to disappear， and dominant languages such as English， Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over．At present， the world has about 6，800 languages． The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven． The general rule is that mild zoneshave relatively few languages， often spoken by many people， while hot，wet zones have lots， often spoken by small numbers． Europe has only around 200 languages； the Americas about 1，000； Africa 2，400； and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3，200， of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800． The median number （中位数）of speakers is a mere 6，000， which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that．Already well over 400 of the total of 6，800 languages are close to extinction （消亡）， with only a few elderly speakers left． Pick， at random， Busuu in Cameroon （eight remaining speakers）， Chiapaneco in Mexico （150）， Lipan Apache in the United States （two or three） or Wadjigu in Australia （one， with a question﹣mark）： none of these seems to have much chance of survival．（1）What can we infer about languages in hunter﹣gatherer times？A． They developed very fast．B． They were large in number．C． They had similar patterns．D． They were closely connected．（2）Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2？A．Complex．B．Advanced．C． Powerful．D． Modern．（3）How many languages are spoken by less than 6，000 people at present？A． About 6，800．B． About 3，400．C． About 2，400．D．About 1，200．（4）What is the main idea of the text？A． New languages will be created．B． People's lifestyles are reflected in languages．C． Human development results in fewer languages．D． Geography determines language evolution．14．（8.00分）DWe may think we're a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight of something shiny and new， but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices （装置） well after they go out of style． That's bad news for the environment ﹣ and our wallets ﹣ as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things．To figure out how much power these devices are using， Callie Babbitt and her colleagues at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for each product throughout its life ﹣from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device． This method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early 1990s． Devices were grouped by generation． Desktop computers，basic mobile phones， and box﹣set TVs defined 1992． Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997． And MP3 players， smart phones，and LCD TVs entered homes in 2002， before tablets and e﹣readers showed up in 2007．As we accumulated more devices， however， we didn't throw out our old ones． "The living﹣room television is replaced and gets planted in the kids' room， and suddenly one day， you have a TV in every room ofthe house，" said one researcher． The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household

advice on how to get value from the vast range of health products on the market．With food our biggest weekly household expense．Susanna a nd Matt spend time with a different family each week．In

thousands of years，but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going．When the world was still populated by hunter﹣gatherers，small，tightly knit （联系）groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other．Some language experts believe that 10，000 years ago，when the world had just five to ten million people，they spoke perhaps 12，000 languages between them．Soon afterwards，many of those people started settling down to become farmers，and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number．In recent centuries，trade，industrialisation，the development of the nation﹣state and the spread of universal compulsory education，especially globalisation andbetter communications in the past few decades，all have caused many languages to disappear，and dominant languages such as English，Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over．At present，the world has about 6，800 languages．The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven．The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages，often spoken by many people，while hot，wet zones have lots，often spoken by small numbers．Europe has only around 200 languages；the Americas about 1，000；Africa 2，400；and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3，200，of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800．The median number （中位数）of speakers is a mere 6，000，which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that．Already well over 400 of the total of 6，800 languages are close to extinction （消亡），with only a few elderly speakers left．Pick，at random，Busuu in Cameroon （eight remaining speakers），Chiapaneco in Mexico （150），Lipan Apache in the United States （two or three）or Wadjigu in Australia （one，with a question﹣mark）：none of these seems to have much chance of survival．（1）What can we infer about languages in hunter﹣gatherer times？A．They developed very fast．B．They were large in number．C．They had similar patterns．D．They were closely connected．（2）Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2？A．Complex．B．Advanced．C．Powerful．D．Modern．（3）How many languages are spoken by less than 6，000 people at present？A．About 6，800．B．About 3，400．C．About 2，400．D．About 1，200．（4）What is the main idea of the text？A．New languages will be created．B．People's lifestyles are reflected in languages．C．Human development results in fewer languages．D．Geography determines language evolution．14．（8.00分）DWe may think we're a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight of something shiny and new，but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices （装置）well after they go out of style．That's bad news for the environment ﹣and our wallets ﹣as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things．To figure out how much power these devices are using，Callie Babbitt and her colleagues at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for each product throughout its life ﹣from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device．This method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early 1990s．Devices were grouped by generation．Desktop computers，basic mobile phones，and box﹣set TVs defined 1992．Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997．And MP3 players，smart phones，and LCD TVs entered homes in 2002，before tablets and e﹣readers showed up in 2007．As we accumulated more devices，however，we didn't throw out our old ones．"The living﹣room television is replaced and gets planted in the kids' room，and suddenly one day，you have a TV in every room of the house，" said one researcher．The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household in 1992 to 13 in 2007．We're not just keeping these old devices﹣we continue touse them．According to the analysis of Babbitt's team，old desktop monitors and box TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption and contribution to greenhouse gas emissions （排放）more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007 window．So what's the solution（解决方案）？The team's data only went up to 2007，but the researchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old products with new electronics that serve more than one function，such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing．They found that more on﹣demand entertainment viewing on tablets instead of TVs and desktop computers could cut energy consumption by 44%．（1）What does the author think of new devices？A．They are environment﹣friendly．B．They are no better than the old．C．They cost more to use at home．D．They go out of style quickly．（2）Why did Babbitt's team conduct the research？A．To reduce the cost of minerals．B．To test the life cycle of a product．C．To update consumers on new technology．D．To find out electricity consumption of the devices．（3）Which of the following uses the least energy？A．The box﹣set TV．B．The tablet．C．The LCD TV．D．The desktop computer．（4）What does the text suggest people do about old electronic devices？A．Stop using them．B．Take them apart．C．Upgrade them．D．Recycle them．第二节（毎小题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。

21. Carl is studying food science at college and hopes to open up meat processing factory of his own one day.A. / ；aB. / ；theC. the 。

aD. the 。

the本题考查冠词，science是不可数名词，用the表示特指是不可能的，后面的factory是一个可数名词，用 a 表示泛指。

22. ——May I help you? You seem to be having some problems.——, thanks. I think I can manage.A. All rightB. No problemC. It 'all rightD. There 's no way很多学生会选择答案 D ，我想这是有道理的。

A. B. C 都表示肯定，即接受帮助，只有 D 是拒绝。

我没有去过国外，也很少见到老外，所以我不敢轻言答案是哪个，很多学生也应该是这样吧。

我也不知道老外是否会经常用不定式的进行时进行交际，想必出卷教师一定是交际高手吧。

【你说的对，我是遇到问题了，但是谢谢你的好意，我自己可以解决】23. Interest is as to learning as the ability to understand , even more so.A. vitalB. availableC. specificD. SimilarBe vital to 表示：对 .. 极端重要；something be available to somebody 表示：某人可以得到某物，列句：cooperative medical service is available to all the members of the the commune.

guests on the sofa every morning，but she is cooking up a storm in her latest role ﹣showing families how to prepare delicious and nutritious meals on a tight budget．In Save Money：Good Food，she visits a different home each week and with the help of chef Matt Tebbutt offers top tips on how to reduce food waste，while preparing recipes for under £5 per family a day．And the Good Morning Britain presenter says she's been able to put a lot of what she's learnt into practice in her own home，preparing meals for sons，Sam，14，Finn，13，and Jack，11．"We love Mexican churros，so I buy them on my phone from my local Mexican takeaway restaurant，'' she explains，"I pay £5 for a portion（一份），but Matt makes them for 26p a portion，because they are flour，water，sugar and oil．Everybody can buy takeaway food，but sometimes we're not aware how cheaply we can make this food ourselves．"The eight﹣part series （系列节目），Save Money：Good Food，follows in the footsteps of ITV's Save Money：Good Health，which gave viewers advice on how to get value from the vast range of health products on the market．With food our biggest weekly household expense．Susanna and Matt spend time with a different family each week．In tonight's Easter special they come to the aid of a family in need of some delicious inspiration on a budget．The team transforms the family's long weekend of celebration with less expensive but still tasty recipes．（1）What do we know about Susanna Reid？A．She enjoys embarrassing her guests．B．She has started a new programme．C．She dislikes working early in the morning．D．She has had a tight budget for her family．（2）How does Matt Tebbutt help Susanna？A．He buys cooking materials for her．B．He prepares food for her kids．C．He assists her in cooking matters．D．He invites guest families for her．（3）What does the author intend to do in paragraph 4？A．Summarize the previous paragraphs．B．Provide some advice for the readers．C．Add some background information．D．Introduce a new topic for discussion．（4）What can be a suitable title for the text？A．Keeping Fit by Eating SmartB．Balancing Our Daily DietC．Making Yourself a Perfect ChefD．Cooking Well for Less13．（8.00分）CLanguages have been coming and going for thousands of years，but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going．When the world was still populated by hunter﹣gatherers，small，tightly knit （联系）groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other．Some language experts believe that 10，000 years ago，when the world had just five to ten million people，they spoke perhaps 12，000 languages between them．Soon afterwards，many of those people started settling down to become farmers，and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number．In recent centuries，trade，industrialisation，the development of the nation﹣state and the spread of universal compulsory education，especially globalisation andbetter communications in the past few decades，all have caused many languages to disappear，and dominant languages such as English，Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over．At present，the world has about 6，800 languages．The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven．The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages，often spoken by many people，while hot，wet zones have lots，often spoken by small numbers．Europe has only around 200 languages；the Americas about 1，000；Africa 2，400；and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3，200，of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800．The median number （中位数）of speakers is a mere 6，000，which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that．Already well over 400 of the total of 6，800 languages are close to extinction （消亡），with only a few elderly speakers left．Pick，at random，Busuu in Cameroon （eight remaining speakers），Chiapaneco in Mexico （150），Lipan Apache in the United States （two or three）or Wadjigu in Australia （one，with a question﹣mark）：none of these seems to have much chance of survival．（1）What can we infer about languages in hunter﹣gatherer times？A．They developed very fast．B．They were large in number．C．They had similar patterns．D．They were closely connected．（2）Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2？A．Complex．B．Advanced．C．Powerful．D．Modern．（3）How many languages are spoken by less than 6，000 people at present？A．About 6，800．B．About 3，400．C．About 2，400．D．About 1，200．（4）What is the main idea of the text？A．New languages will be created．B．People's lifestyles are reflected in languages．C．Human development results in fewer languages．D．Geography determines language evolution．14．（8.00分）DWe may think we're a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight of something shiny and new，but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices （装置）well after they go out of style．That's bad news for the environment ﹣and our wallets ﹣as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things．To figure out how much power these devices are using，Callie Babbitt and her colleagues at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for each product throughout its life ﹣from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device．This method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early 1990s．Devices were grouped by generation．Desktop computers，basic mobile phones，and box﹣set TVs defined 1992．Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997．And MP3 players，smart phones，and LCD TVs entered homes in 2002，before tablets and e﹣readers showed up in 2007．As we accumulated more devices，however，we didn't throw out our old ones．"The living﹣room television is replaced and gets planted in the kids' room，and suddenly one day，you have a TV in every room of the house，" said one researcher．The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household in 1992 to 13 in 2007．We're not just keeping these old devices﹣we continue touse them．According to the analysis of Babbitt's team，old desktop monitors and box TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption and contribution to greenhouse gas emissions （排放）more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007 window．So what's the solution（解决方案）？The team's data only went up to 2007，but the researchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old products with new electronics that serve more than one function，such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing．They found that more on﹣demand entertainment viewing on tablets instead of TVs and desktop computers could cut energy consumption by 44%．（1）What does the author think of new devices？A．They are environment﹣friendly．B．They are no better than the old．C．They cost more to use at home．D．They go out of style quickly．（2）Why did Babbitt's team conduct the research？A．To reduce the cost of minerals．B．To test the life cycle of a product．C．To update consumers on new technology．D．To find out electricity consumption of the devices．（3）Which of the following uses the least energy？A．The box﹣set TV．B．The tablet．C．The LCD TV．D．The desktop computer．（4）What does the text suggest people do about old electronic devices？A．Stop using them．B．Take them apart．C．Upgrade them．D．Recycle them．第二节（毎小题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。

thousands of years，but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going．When the world was still populated by hunter﹣gatherers，small，tightly knit （联系）groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other．Some language experts believe that 10，000 years ago，when the world had just five to ten million people，they spoke perhaps 12，000 languages between them．Soon afterwards，many of those people started settling down to become farmers，and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number．In recent centuries，trade，industrialisation，the development of the nation﹣state and the spread of universal compulsory education，especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades，all have caused many languages to disappear，and dominant languages such as English，Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over．At present，the world has about 6，800 languages．The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven．The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages，often spoken by many people，while hot，wet zones have lots，often spoken by small numbers．Europe has only around 200 languages；the Americasabout 1，000；Africa 2，400；and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3，200，of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800．The median number （中位数）of speakers is a mere 6，000，which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that．Already well over 400 of the total of 6，800 languages are close to extinction （消亡），with only a few elderly speakers left．Pick，at random，Busuu in Cameroon （eight remaining speakers），Chiapaneco in Mexico （150），Lipan Apache in the United States （two or three）or Wadjigu in Australia （one，with a question﹣mark）：none of these seems to have much chance of survival．（1）What can we infer about languages in hunter﹣gatherer times？A．They developed very fast．B．They were large in number．C．They had similar patterns．D．They were closely connected．（2）Which of the

3，400．C．About 2，400．D．About 1，200．（4）What is the main idea of the text？A．New languages will be created．B．People's lifestyles are reflected in languages．C．Human development results in fewer languages．D．Geography determines language evolution．14．（8.00分）DWe may think we're a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight of something shiny and new，but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices （装置）well after they go out of style．That's bad news for the environment ﹣and our wallets ﹣as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things．To figure out how much power these devices are using，Callie Babbitt and her colleagues at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for each product throughout its life ﹣from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device．This method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early 1990s．Devices were grouped by generation．Desktop computers，basic mobile phones，and box﹣set TVs defined 1992．Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997．And MP3 players，smart phones，and LCD TVs entered homes in 2002，before tablets and e﹣readers showed up in 2007．As we accumulated more devices，however，we didn't throw out our old ones．"The living﹣room television is replaced and gets planted in the kids' room，and suddenly one day，you have a TV in every room of the house，" said one researcher．The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household in 1992 to 13 in 2007．We're not just keeping these old devices﹣we continue to use them．According to the analysis of Babbitt's team，old desktop monitors and box TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption and contribution to greenhouse gas emissions （排放）more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007 window．So what's the solution（解决方案）？The team's data only went up to 2007，but the researchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old products with new electronics that serve more than one function，such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing．They found that more on﹣demand entertainment viewing on tablets instead of TVs and desktop computers could cutenergy consumption by 44%．（1）What does the author think of new devices？A．They are environment﹣friendly．B．They are no better than the old．C．They cost more to use at home．D．They go out of style quickly．（2）Why did Babbitt's team conduct the research？A．To reduce the cost of minerals．B．To test the life cycle of a product．C．To update consumers on new technology．D．To find out electricity consumption of the devices．（3）Which of the following uses the least energy？A．The box﹣set TV．B．The tablet．C．The LCD TV．D．The desktop computer．（4）What does the text suggest people do about old electronic devices？A．Stop using them．B．Take them apart．C．Upgrade them．D．Recycle them．第二节（毎小题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。
