With a fully automated home, you’d be able to pick up your phone, call your house and instruct it to disarm the security system, start the spa and turn up the lights. The interest in home automation is not born of a desire to create a space-age home, but to make a house safe, energy-efficient and more comfortable.Take security for example. If there is a fire, an automated house will detect it, turn off the gas, close the dampers in the ventilation system, turn on the lights, unlock the doors, set off an alarm and call the fire department. More advanced systems might even tell you where the fire is, and through which room you should escape.With Home Manager, one of several automation systems on the market, you can warm up the master bedroom, kitchen and bathroom in the morning before alarm goes off. Or you can program it to keep the nursery at a constant temperature. In midsummer, you can even instruct sensors in the house to open skylights, turn on ceiling fans, and close the draperies when the house reaches a certain temperature. All of these functions can be controlled while in the house or remotely from a phone or computer.In addition, home automation offers tremendous lifestyle improvements for elderly and disabled people. For those who cannot push a button or flip a switch, a voice command can be used to activate security cameras, turn up the stereo volume or drop the room temperature a few degrees. The click of an infrared remote control could turn on the oven, close the blinds or open the door.11. The following topics are related to home automation, which one has been discussed in detail in this passage?A. Energy savings.B. Spa technology.C. Space-age home.D. Lifestyle improvements.12. According to the passage, home automation can offer the followingbenefits EXCEPT ______.A. safetyB. cleanlinessC. convenienceD. energy-efficiency13. What is the main topic discussed in this passage?A. The origin of home automation.B. The limitation of home automation.C. The application of home automation.D. The development of home automation.14. Which of the following statements is NOT true about home automation?A. Home automation can also be controlled within certain distance.B. Home automation is one of the automation systems available now.C. The main aim of home automation is to create a very modern and advanced home.D. Home automation can also offer lifestyle improvements for elderly and disabled people.Passage 2Fast food restaurants are popping up all over the planet. While individuals have different motivations for going to fast food chains, there are specific reasons why they have become so popular and remain so.When it comes to restaurant dining, fast food is nearly as cheap as it gets, so price is one of the primary reasons people frequent them. Finding inexpensive dining out options is especially important to families, which make up a large percentage of fast food customers. Many chains offer value meals or items for less than a dollar, counting on customers with budget sensitivity to be attracted to these options.Fast food is simple to obtain and practically on every corner, providing a quick way to purchase a meal. As people have less and less time to dedicate to cooking meals, they turn more to the simplest available option. Since many fast food establishments have drive-through windows, diners don’t even have to get out of their cars to pick up food. With the augment of healthier meal options at fast food chains, they’ve become even more popular.Many fast food restaurants offer guilty pleasures on their menus, such as French fries and bacon. These elements are comfort food for many people and can be filling as well as tasty. Unfortunately, the reason fast food tastes so good is often because it’s loaded with fat and sodium, but due to the outcry from customers who are increasingly health-conscious, changesin the way some items are prepared are being made which may or may not affect their taste.Fast food restaurants spend a large amount of money on marketing their meals to consumers, and it seems to be effective. Teens, adults and parents are all separate targets of advertising, and children are also a major marketing demographic with toys and special meals aimed just for them. Many fast food chains design marketing promotions around popular sports and media events, and publicize contests as another way to get diners through their doors.15.According to the passage, the causes of fast food’s popularity involve the following EXCEPT ______.A. priceB. convenienceC. tasteD. diversity16. The underlined word in Paragraph 3 means “______”.A. approvalB. disapprovalC. increaseD. decrease17. Which of the following statements is NOT true about fast food?A. Fast food is often low in fat and sodium.B. Children are also the targets of fast food.C. Advertising contributes to the attraction of fast food.D. The taste of fast food may be influenced if the cooking way is changed.18. The passage is a piece of ______.A. narrationB. argumentationC. expositionD. description三、综合题（本大题共 2 小题，第 19 小题 16 分，第 20 小题 20 分，共 36分）（注：本大题请用中文作答）19.分词分为现在分词和过去分词两种。

关于中国快餐发展行业的英文作文The Rise of Fast Food in ChinaHi there! Do you like hamburgers, fries, and chicken nuggets? If so, then you're a fan of fast food, just like many kids and adults all over China. Fast food restaurants have been spreading quickly across the country in recent years, and they're super popular! Let me tell you all about the rise of fast food in China.Not too long ago, there weren't many fast food chains in China. Traditional Chinese food from little restaurant shops and street vendors was the norm. But in the late 1980s, things started to change. Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) became the first major American fast food brand to open restaurants in China. The first KFC opened in Beijing in 1987.At first, some people were unsure about this strange "Western" food. Would Chinese people really want to eat fried chicken, burgers, and fries instead of dishes like dumplings, noodles, and stir-fries? As it turned out, the answer was a resounding "Yes!" KFC was a major hit, especially among younger people eager to try this exciting new dining experience.McDonald's arrived on the scene a few years later in 1990, also opening its first restaurant in Beijing. Just like KFC,McDonald's was an instant smash. People loved the Golden Arches, the Big Macs, and those world-famous French fries. More American chains like Pizza Hut followed closely behind in the early 90s.The growth of fast food in China was just getting started. As the economy boomed and living standards rose, more and more Chinese people had money to spend on affordable fast food meals. These restaurants were convenient, delicious, and represented a taste of modern Western culture that many Chinese consumers craved.Not to be outdone, Chinese homegrown fast food brands started popping up as well. Companies like Real Kung Fu borrowed recipes and cooking techniques from ancient Chinese traditions, but presented them in a modern fast food style that appealed to youth. Dico's originated in Taiwan, bringing tasty fried chicken and burgers with an Asian flair.Today, you can find all sorts of fast food joints on nearly every street corner in China's major cities. From Beijing to Shanghai, Guangzhou to Chengdu, the fast food landscape is absolutely booming. Western brands like KFC, McDonald's, Burger King, and many more dot the urban landscape. At thesame time, Chinese companies like Kung Fu and Dico's continue to grow rapidly too.The Chinese fast food market has become so huge that restaurant chains all over the world want a piece of the action. You can now find big brands like Subway, Dairy Queen, Carl's Jr., and even Russian kebab chain Doner Kebab House jostling for space in shopping malls and on busy streets.While fast food is undeniably popular, not everyone is a fan. Some people worry that it's not healthy, with too many calories, salt, sugar, and fat. They argue that traditional Chinese cuisine is much more nutritious and balanced. The booming fast food sector has also raised concerns about food safety at times, with some outlets getting in trouble for using expired ingredients or poor hygiene practices.Still, millions upon millions of Chinese people clearly can't get enough of fried chicken sandwiches, cheeseburgers, french fries, milkshakes, and all the other greasy, tasty, addictive fast food goodies. When you're a busy student or office worker in a rushed modern society, sometimes you just want a super convenient, affordable, and yummy meal after a stressful day.So whether you consider fast food to be a blessing or a curse for public health, there's no denying its soaring popularity acrossChina. Next time you're strolling around Shanghai and you get a whiff of sizzling beef patties on the grill at the local Mickey D's, just remember - it's all part of China's blazing hot fast food revolution!。

高中英语必备范文：Fast foodFast Food近几年来，中国的大城市款餐盛行。

国外快餐在中国盛行的原因。

大多数人认为，快餐吃起来好吃，但没有营养价值。

In recent years, China has witnessed the prosperity of fast food restaurants in big cities. It is quite easy for people to have meals at KFC or Mc Donalds. At lunch time, it is hard to find seat in some fast food restaurants.While so many small restaurants are worried about how to attract more customers, foreign fast food restaurants have rushed into China. Why can they draw so many people’s attention? Firstly, fast food is very fast and convenient, people can stuff themselves within several minutes. Secondly, the restaurants offering fast food also provide a very comfortable environment as well as a warm atmosphere. people can not only enjoy the food they have but can also feel the foreign flavor the restaurants try to display.However, most of the people who regularly go to fast food restaurants rarely realize the facts that although the food may taste delicious, fast food usually has little nutrition. I think theyshould eat less for the sake of their health.。

People can enjoy a filling meal at a reasonable price, which is very appealing to those who want to save money.In addition, the fast-paced lifestyle in big cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou has created a demand for quick and convenient dining options. Fast food restaurants can satisfy this demand by providing speedy service and takeaway options.Overall, the fast development of fast food in China can be attributed to the busy modern lifestyle, the influence of Western culture, affordable prices, and the convenience of fast food restaurants. I believe that fast food will continue to be a popular dining choice in China in the future. Thank you for listening to my talk!。
