2024届中考英语:热点时文阅读-文化差异01(2023·海南海口·海南中学校考模拟预测)Stir-fry (小炒), Peking duck, fried rice—the tastes of Britain.“Britain?!” I hear you cry. “But British people take afternoon tea with sandwiches! Those are Chinese dishes!”According to a survey by Food Network UK, nine out of 10 British people said their favorite food was Asian. The number one international food in Britain was stir-fry, according to the Daily Mail, with 55 percent saying they ate it often.Britain has a very multicultural history. Centuries of history brought dishes from across the world. Almost every town in the UK has a Chinese or Indian restaurant, and Italian, Thai and Jamaican are not unusual. Perhaps it’s no surprise that they learned to cook and eat dishes from other countries. Traditional British food doesn’t have a great reputation (名声).International food has become British food, even when British are cooking. Another survey by the UKTV food channel in 2009 showed the most common dish British could cook without a recipe was Italian spaghetti.However, if you’re in the UK and think a trip to a Chinese restaurant would be a great way to stay away from homesickness(乡愁), think again. Many British Chinese dishes aren’t exactly Chinese. At the end of every British Chinese meal, you get a sweet crisp known as a “traditional Chinese fortune cookie”. I have lived in Beijing for almost a year.

In order to deal with the problem, the Dutch used thousands of windmills.So the Netherlands became the famous land of windmills. With this invention, the Dutch set a special date and held some activities. It’s held on the second Saturday of May each year.

However, when the windmill is at rest and backward, it mainly tells us that something bad has happened.Nowadays, during your visit in the Netherlands, you can choose the windmill museums.

A,阅读理解Technology has brought ancient poets “back to life”. At the World Robot Conference 2023 in late August in Beijing, there were two robots that looked like the Chinese poets Li Bai and Du Fu. While Li Bai was holding up a cup of wine, Du Fu was sitting at a desk, writing.These are called bionic (仿生的) robots. The robot’s skin is usually made of silicone (硅胶),CGTN explained in a video about Liaoning-based producer EXROBOTS. The robot’s skin is very soft. You can even see veins (血管) under the skin.Another human-like robot also attracted attention recently. It was created by US company Apptronik. Named Apollo, it has around 30 muscles (肌肉). For now, the robot can only make simple movements, such as walking and waving . The robot’s head has cameras and sensors (传感器) inside. They can help it map out a 360-degree view (景象) of its environment. They also help the robot keep balance when walking on unstable (不稳定的) surfaces.Nowadays, bionic human-like robots mostly work with humans, such as by being tour guides or helpingvisitors at front desks. This could be because people are comfortable living and working with machines that look and act like them. They can “strike a chord (引起共鸣) with people,” a US robotics scientist Marc Raibert told New Yorker.As more human-like robots come out, safety will be the key, according to the Robot Report website. When a 70-kilogram robot breaks down and falls, humans nearby may get hurt.1. What does “brought ancient poets ‘back to life’” mean in Paragraph 1?A. Technology can make ancient poets come back to life.B. The robots looked and acted like real ancient poets.C. Visitors can experience real ancient life with new technology.D. The robots can create better poems than poets.2. The skin of robots made by EXROBOTS shows _____.A. how human-like their robots areB. how soft the robot’s skin isC. what the robot’s skin is made fromD. how different it is from other robots3. What can Apollo do with built-in sensors?A. Wave at humans.B. Walk stably.C. Know human faces.D. Draw attention.4. In which situation can bionic robots help you now?A. When you want someone to repair your car.B. When you want someone to travel with you.C. When you don’t want to do housework.D. When you want to know the floor information of a building.5. What do people worry about with human-like robots?A. Users may fall in love with the robots.B. Human-like robots look scary.C. The robots’ weight may cause problems.D. The robots may get out of control.【答案】BABDC【解析】本文介绍人形机器人的一些应用和特点。

Whereas spirituals were created anddisseminated in folk fashion, gospel music was composed,published, copyrighted, and sold by professionals.Nevertheless, improvisation remained central to gospel music.One has only to listen to the recorded repertoire of gospelsongs to realize that Black gospel singers rarely sang a songprecisely the same way twice and never according to its exactmusical notation. They performed what jazz musicians callhead arrangements proceeding from their own feelings andfrom the way the spirit moved them at the time. Thisimprovisatory element was reflected in the manner in which gospel music was published.

The WiFi Degree

April 29, 2011 | from The Newsweek
Luis Figueroa lives down the street from UC
Merced, the newest campus in the
University of California system. So it’s not
surprising that the 21-year-old studies from
the comfort of his own home. But he’s not
enrolled at Merced: from his living-room
computer, Figueroa is earning his bachelor’s
degree in business administration at
Columbia College in Missouri, some 2,000
miles away. At $630 per course—about
$1,800 per semester—his online degree will cost far less than even in-state tuition at UC. Not only that, Figueroa is able to continue working full time in a management-training job with AT&T in Merced, a job he feels lucky to have in the current economic climate. “Once I realized I had time constraints, I knew the traditional classroom wouldn’t work,” he says. “Courses online are open 24 hours a day, and I’m able to go there any time I want.”
That convenience is one of the main reasons nearly 4 million American students took at least one online course in the 2007–08 school year, according to a study by the Sloan Foundation. The same study found that online enrollment is growing at a rate more than 10 times that of the higher-education population at large—12.9 percent vs. 1.2 percent for traditional “in seat”students. Nowhere is the growth faster than among younger students like Figueroa who are opting for online learning, even when the traditional classroom is—in his case—right outside the front door.
Once targeted at older, working adults, distance learning has moved into the education mainstream at stunning speed over the past couple of years, as technology allows ever-richer, more-interactive learning experiences online—and as college costs continue to rise and classrooms are packed to capacity. For traditional brick-and-mortar institutions, that has meant a scramble to enter a lucrative market that used to be the exclusive territory of for-profit institutions such as the University of Phoenix and Kaplan University. Established brand-name educators now offer extensive online learning options and are competing with the for-profits for students.

As the largest generation since the baby boom attends college at a time of shrinking budgets and soaring costs, many educators believe that online learning holds the greatest promise for expanding the capacity of the U.S. higher-education system. And digital classrooms will surely play an important role in helping the Obama administration pursue its goal of raising the percentage of college graduates in the U.S. to first in the world by 2020.
Another important factor that has closed the prestige gap is the tight integration of online programs into their host institutions. When UMass launched UMassOnline in 2001, it used the same admission standards, the same faculty, the same curricula—and it awarded students degrees indistinguishable from those given to campus-going counterparts.
Despite the popularity of online learning, there are shortcomings. Students may save money and time, but they give up college social life. Chat boards are hardly a substitute for the camaraderie of the dorm—or the richness of cultural life on campus. And while it’s easy to move ahead in an online course, there’s no one looking over your shoulder in a virtual classroom. “You have to be good at planning your time,”says ASU’s Holleran. “If you don’t you’re going to fall behind.” Then again, help is only an e-mail away.(552 words)
