【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
Europe is now the biggest market for organic food in the world, having grown by 25 percent a year over the past 10 years. Denmark's agriculture minister is herself an organic farmer. The UK market for organic food grew by 55 percent in 2000, while the food market as a whole grew by only one percent. Yet only seven percent of British shoppers account for nearly 90 percent of organic sales. However popular the idea of organic farming may be, it is still an interest for only a few people.
So what makes the idea of organic farming popular? Organic farming means farming with natural materials, rather than with man-made fertilizers or pesticides. Organic farmers rely on many methods — such as crop rotation (农作物的轮作) and the use of resistant varieties, because they are necessary for organic farmers to compensate for the shortage of man-made chemicals.
Organic farming is often supposed to be safer than traditional farming for the environment. Yet after a long research on organic farming worldwide for a number of years, science continues to be against this opinion. The House of Commons committee on agriculture publicized that, even with complete research work, it would fail to find any scientific evidence to prove “that any of claims (宣称) made for organic farming is always true”.
However, the talk about the benefits of organic farming is going on. This is partly because many people depend on their individual farm, the soil, the weather, and so on.
(1)The first paragraph mainly tells us _____.
A.organic farming has been performed only in Europe over the past 10 years
B.governments of European countries have cared less about organic farming
C.organic farming is far from being as popular as expected
D.European countries need organic food more than the other countries in the world
(2)The underlined words “compensate for” in the second paragraph probably mean “________”.
A.argue for
B.care for
C.struggle for
D.pay for
(3)According to the third paragraph, _____.
A.organic farming is safer than traditional farming for the environment
B.the idea that organic farming is safer has not been proven by science
C.organic farming is accepted by the UK's House of Commons committee
D.organic farming is preferred to traditional farming
(4)Which of the following is TRUE, according to the passage?
A.The UK's agriculture minister is an organic farmer.
B.Organic farming is popular with young people.
C.Farmers make use of many different kinds of methods to improve the organic sales system.
D.Ninety-three percent of British shoppers seldom buy organic products.

【题目】The reason why so many of us love gift cards—they’re a lot like cash—is also the reason why they can be hard to replace.If your card is lost or stolen,most retailers are sympathetic,but only if you can prove that you actually purchased,or were gifted,the card.

Preconditions(前提) to replace a gift card

1.Keep the card’s receipt or the gift card number.

2.Put the card number in your mobile wallet.

If you can provide one of those things for the retailer,contact the retailer immediately to look up a missing card.Or you can turn to the generous soul who gave you the card for help.Most retailers maintain tollfree numbers,available on the store’s website and staffed by customer service representatives.They can cancel the card and work on issuing you with a new one.Some retailers,such as Simon Malls,can replace cards over the phone as long as you know the gift card number;others,including Starbucks,replace a lost gift card if you registered online.

Replacement fee

If it’s a store card,you may not even have to pay a replacement fee,but that’s less likely with bankissued gift cards.American Express now offers to replace lost or stolen gift cards for free if you have the original card number,but replacing a Wells Fargo Visa card costs 7.50,or 15 for a check cashing out the remaining funds on the card.

Without proof of ownership

Even if you never wrote down the number and the receipt is long gone,you’re not entirely out of luck.If you already used the gift card to shop online,your data may still be stored in your account—and you can spend it down quickly.

1You can probably replace a lost or stolen gift card if you .

A. have opened a mobile wallet account

B. have registered the information of the card online

C. write a letter to American Express to explain the loss

D. apply for a new one to customer service representatives

D. You have the original card number of American Express.

【题目】My doorbell rings at 11 a.m. On the step, I find an elderly Chinese lady. She is small and slight. She holds a paper carrier bag in her hands.

I know this lady. It is by no means her first visit. Her daughter, Nicole, bought the house next door last October. Nicole, who is currently in Shanghai, has apparently told her mother that I am having heart surgery shortly, and the result is that her mother has decided I need to be supplied with meals.

I know what is inside the paper carrier bag — a stainless-steel container with a meal of rice, vegetables and either chicken, meat or shrimp. This has become an almost-daily occurrence.

Communication between my benefactor (恩人)and me is somewhat handicapped by the fact that she doesn’t speak English and all I can say in Mandarin is “hello”. Once, she brought an iPad and pointed to the screen, which displayed a message from Nicole telling me that her mother wanted to know if the food was all right.

“Your mother just can’t be bringing me meals like this all the time” I protested. “I can hardly reciprocate by cooking something from my native land, like roast beef or Yorkshire pudding for her” I said.

“Oh,no,” Nicole said. “Don’t worry about that. She has to cook for the family anyway, and she wants to do it for you. You can call her Wing, which is her surname.”

The tenant in my basement suite is a university student who speaks Mandarin quite well, so with her help, I have found out that Wing is 68—13 years younger than I am — and that she lived through the Cultural Revolution. For my part, I was raised in wartime Britain.

So here we are, two grandmothers a world away from where we were raised, neither of us able to speak the other’s language. But the doorbell keeps ringing and there is the familiar paper earner bag, handed smilingly to me by Wing.

Right now I am working on some more Mandarin words—it’s the least I can do after such a display of kindness.

“Thank you” is, of course,the first one, which somehow seems inadequate.

1The author and Wing got to know each other .

A. as next door neighbors

B. when exchanging meals

C. by sharing similar experiences

D. after using an iPad to communicate

2The underlined word “reciprocate” in Paragraph 5 probably means .

A. do as well B. offer generously

C. give in return D. accept with pleasure

3The author’s effort to learn Mandarin shows her .

A. great satisfaction B. real kindness

C. heartfelt thanks D. sincere friendship
