2句意:她说话的方式不耐烦、不高兴,当然不友好,还有点粗鲁。

impatient不耐烦;warm-hearted热心的;shy害羞的;proud骄傲的。根据空后词unhappy, certainly not friendly and sort of rude不高兴,当然不友好,还有点粗鲁的提示,空处的词应是否定意义的词“不耐烦”,故答案为A

nothing没有事情;something某事;anything任何事情;everything每一件事情。根据上句 I had nothing.我没有事情可做和本句中surely的提示可知,肯定有我可以真诚地称赞她的事情,故空处的词为“某件事情”,故答案为B

thank感谢;praise赞扬;blame责备;trust相信。根据上句 It was SO good.它是那么地好可知,空处的词应为“赞扬”,故答案为B

9句意:事情很简单。

simple简单的;different不同的;interesting有趣的;difficult困难的。由前文女服务员的不高兴、不耐烦,仅仅因为作者的一句称赞,服务员整个的态度发生了变化可知,空处的词为“简单的”,故答案为A

【题目】 Supermarkets only sell food before its sell-by date. So where does food past its sell-by date go? The answer is in the trash bin. Besides shops, people also get rid of a lot of food when they buy too much and can't eat it up. To stop food waste, people have come up with great ideas. Take a look and try to join the action!

  ▲ . When we have extra money, we save it in banks. This idea made people think. Could they set up banks for food? The world's first food bank started in the US in 1967. Many other countries, including China, have caught up with this great idea. For example, Shanghai has recently made a share fridge. It stores cakes and canned food donated(捐赠) from nearby markets and restaurants. It's free for anyone to enjoy.

Pay as you feel. The Real Junk Food Project is a company in the UK. It says that food past its sell-by date could still be OK to eat. So they collect it from supermarkets, and put it on shelves in special cafes. There, the food has no price label(标签). You can give as much money as you want. If you don’t want to spend money, you can help do some work there. There are now 125 Real Junk Food cafes worldwide. And the number is growing quickly.

Buy less. When there's no food bank around, what can we do to help stop food waste? In two words: Buy less. Dining halls in more than half of US colleges are going tray-less(无托盘). It makes it harder for students to take too much. This small change brings a big difference. It reduces food waste by 25 to 30 percent, and saves water and energy because there are no trays to wash.
