　　Ⅰ.阅读理解(共两节)

　　第一节　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。

　　Shake Shack is a new kind of restaurant becoming more popular in the U．S.The restaurants are not “fast food”．They are known as “fast casual”．

　　Observers say Americans want more choices and fresh food when choosing where and what to eat.This trend is one reason why the fast food restaurant McDonald’ s has struggled financially.In the last quarter of 2017，McDonald’ s net income dropped by about $300 million.The January earnings report brought more bad news.Worldwide sales dropped for the eighth month in a row and even more than expected.While McDonald’ s is struggling to get their customers back，Shake Shack，is doing well in making money.The New York­based burger chain had a very successful IPO，or initial public offering，of shares at the end of January.On its first day of trading，Shake Shack went from $21 a share to just under $46 a share.Being part of the “fast casual” trend has helped Shake Shack.Other fast casual restaurants in the U．S.include Chipotle and Panera.

　　Bonnie Riggs，a restaurant expert with NPD has studied Americans’ restaurant habits for almost 30 years.She says one reason why Americans like fast casual food is that it’ s new.It’ s creative.It’ s something different and people like to try new things.Her study shows Americans made 61 billion visits to restaurants last year.Three out of four visits were to fast food restaurants，like McDonald’ s．Fast casual is still a small percentage of restaurant visits，but it has developed fast.Just as Ms.Riggs says，“It’ s growing by leaps and bounds，because they meet consumers’ needs.They know it’ s being prepared while they wait，it’ s fresh，quality food，good tasting food at what they say are reasonable and affordable prices.”

　　Many Americans still like their fast food.They just are not going as often.They are finding other ways to have a meal.

　　Tips for Cooking on a Tight Schedule

　　From my experience，there are three main reasons why people don’t cook more often：ability，money and time.1.

　　Money is a topic I’ll save for another day.So today，I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen.Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule.

　　Think ahead.The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I’m already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat.So think about of the coming week.When will you have time to cook？Do you have the right materials ready？2.

　　Make your time worth it.When you do find time to cook a meal，make the most of it and save yourself time later on.Are you making one loaf of bread？3.

　　It takes around the same amount of time to make more of something.So save yourself the effort for a future meal.

　　4．

　　This may surprise you，but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation.It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can work well with your appetite and schedule.The more you learn and the more you try，the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.

　　Hopefully that gives you a good start.5.

　　And don’t let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!

　　A．Try new things.

　　B．Ability is easily improved.

　　C．Make three or four instead.

　　D．Understand your food better.

　　E．Cooking is a burden for many people.

　　F．Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.

　　G．A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.

　　1．解析：选B。根据前一句话中提到人们不愿做饭的原因有能力、钱和时间。后两句话中作者提到了钱与时间。故知此处作者说得是能力。故选B。

　　2．解析：选G。根据第二段中的第一句话可知，在本段中作者建议要提前做好计划，G项是解释为什么提前计划的原因，与之相符。故选G。

　　3．解析：选C。根据语境可知，作者建议提高时间效率。用相同的时间多做几个面包。故选C。

　　4．解析：选A。根据本段内容可知，作者建议尝试多做实验，因为你学得越多，你做饭的能力就越强。故本段的中心句为A。

　　5．解析：选F。作者在最后希望他的建议对我们有帮助，并且祝愿我们不要把做饭当成负担，而是当成乐趣。故选F。

　　(be) 13 months at the time，out of the front door with smoke and fire everywhere.We 3.

　　(treasure) the album，but how did they know it was important to us？They are truly sympathetic heroes.After the fire，I would bake 4.

　　(cake) and take them down to the fire station with our daughter.

　　We have been friends all these years.It has been quite 5.

　　while since I have baked for them.Today I baked some delicious cakes 6.

　　took them to the fire station.As I walked into the firehouse，I was greeted by a firefighter with the 7.

　　(friend)．

　　1．amazing。考查非谓语动词。amazing作表语，表示这些消防队员令人惊讶。

　　2．was。考查时态。叙述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时。

　　3．treasured。考查时态。叙述过去发生的事情，用一般过去时。

　　4．cakes。考查名词复数。根据下文中的them可知，此处的cake表示复数概念，因此用复数形式。

　　7．warmest。考查形容词最高级。由下文“I’d ever seen”得出，此处用形容词的最高级，表示我见过的最温暖的微笑。

　　8．touched。考查过去分词。be so touched“深受感动”。touch“感动，触动”，与主语是被动关系，所以用过去分词形式。

　　10．friendship。考查抽象名词。friendship“友谊”。句意：我会永远珍惜我们的友谊。

　　Ⅳ.小写作

　　【写作素材】

　　1．食物在我们的生活中非常重要。只要我们活着，我们就需要它。(count; as long as)

　　2．然而，很多人正在抱怨食物问题，因为人们不能辨认出一些食物含有什么物质，它们有可能是用有毒的化学原料做成的。(complain; make out)

　　3．我希望政府会严惩那些从事(制造)有毒食物的嫌疑犯，使我们的食物更好、更安全。(take up; suspect; superior)

　　One possible version：

　　Food really counts in our life.As long as we live，we need it.However，many people are complaining about the problems of food because what some food contains can’t be made out and some food is even made of poisonous chemicals.I hope the government will be tough with those suspects who take up poisonous food and make our food superior and safer.
