Holland，Belgium，Paris

Our group will gather in Amsterdam and spend the first night in the ancient Dutch city of Haarlem before picking up the well-traveled Nordzeeroute bike route.This protected，coastal path winds its way along the coast of the North Sea for nearly 300 miles，past windmills and over banks.We’ll make our way through charming Dutch and Belgian towns and cross the border into France.Once in France，we’ll ride quiet country roads through small villages，enjoying the many delights of rural French life along our way.We’ll continue south to Chantilly and take a train in to spend a day in the City of Light.

Rural France，Germany’s Black Forest & the Bodensee

From Paris，we continue east through the vineyard(葡萄园) covered hills of the Champagne region，into the green valleys of Alsace-Lorraine，and then on to Strasbourg，right on France’s border with Germany.We’ll cross the Rhine River and follow Germany’s outstanding network of bike paths through the charming Black Forest to the shores of Lake Constance，also known in Germany as the Bodensee.We’ll look across this famous lake to the snow-covered peaks of the Alps—the next leg of our journey together.

The Alps，Northern Italy Venice

Leaving the Bodensee，we’ll start our climb into and through the Austrian Alps.Shortly after skirting the Swiss border，we’ll cross into Bella Italia and begin our downhill descent(斜坡) toward the warm waters of the Adriatic Sea.Upon arrival，we’ll put our bikes away and spend our final days together celebrating our great cycling skills while exploring Venice，one of the world’s most beautiful and mysterious cities.

Calling vegetables and fruits “ugly” can be a recipe for sales success，according to a new study.

A French supermarket chain made international headlines when it began marketing misshapen produce as “ugly” in 2014.Since then，food stores around the world have launched campaigns to sell “imperfect produce”．Some have been successful，while others haven’t—but until now，researchers hadn’t adequately explained why consumers rejected imperfect produce，or what marketing approach was most likely to whet their appetites.

The researchers conducted seven studies that tested the effects of “ugly” labeling by having participants purchase produce at a farmer’s market and online，and by examining people’s impressions about misshapen foods.Interestingly，they found that consumers expected the imperfect produce to be less tasty and even less nutritious than more traditionally attractive foods.

But it’s not all bad news for unattractive foods.The researchers also found that when the produce is labeled “ugly”， consumer hesitancy disappears—and it’s not because of humor or originality.Calling items “ugly” signals to consumers that the only difference between items is appearance，which makes them aware of their bias(偏见) and significantly increases their willingness to buy the less attractive produce.

“We’re pointing to the source of the rejection，” explains John Meredith，the lead researcher.“It makes people aware of the limited nature of their objection to the unattractive produce and makes it clear to consumers that there are no other problems in the produce other than attractiveness.”

The research also found consumers spent more on the misshapen produce labeled “ugly” instead of “imperfect”．And even though the ugly produce was sold at a 25 percent discount，it turned out to be more profitable for sellers，as the cost of acquiring the ugly produce was lower.However，if the price reduction was too sharp，participants expected the “ugly” foods to be of low quality.

4．What is the new study mainly about?

A．Food quality.

B．Consumer demand.

C．Marketing approach.

D．Bias against appearance.

答案　C

解析　推理判断题。根据第一段内容及下文可知，称蔬菜和水果“丑陋”是一种成功的营销方法，这项新的研究主要是关于营销方法的研究。故选C项。

5．What does the underlined phrase “whet their appetites” in paragraph 2 refer to?

A．Satisfy their need to eat better.

B．Stimulate their desire of buying.

C．Encourage them to risk trying out.

D．Raise their concerns about nutrition.

答案　B

解析　词义猜测题。根据画线短语上句“researchers hadn’t adequately explained why consumers rejected imperfect produce”可知，画线短语所在句指的是研究者想知道什么样的营销方式能激发消费者购买不完美产品的欲望，“Stimulate their desire of buying”能够表达画线短语在句中所要表达的意思。故选B项。

6．Why are people willing to buy ugly-labeled produce without hesitation?

A．They are happy to spend less and have more.

B．They are curious about the special shapes of produce.

C．They are attracted by the funny and creative idea of labeling.

D．They are led to believe ugly produce has no quality problems.

答案　D

解析　细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句可知，人们会毫不犹豫地购买带有丑陋标签的产品是因为他们被引导相信丑陋的产品没有质量问题。故选D项。

7．Which way helps food sellers make more profit according to the study?

A．Call the ugly produce “ugly”．

B．Label the ugly produce “imperfect”．

C．Group the produce by its attractiveness.

D．Price the ugly produce at a sharp discount.

答案　A

解析　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The research also found consumers spent more on the misshapen produce labeled ‘ugly’ instead of ‘imperfect’．And even though the ugly produce was sold at a 25 percent discount，it turned out to be more profitable for sellers，as the cost of acquiring the ugly produce was lower.”可知，把丑陋的产品称为“丑陋”可以帮助食品销售商获得更多利润。故选A项。

三、语法填空。

The impact of pandemic(流行病) on life expectancy(预期寿命)，one of the most widely used standards to assess population health，was assessed by a study 1.            (publish) in the Informational Journal of Epidemiology.The study 2.        (conduct) by the Oxford University’s Leverhulme Centre for Demographic(人口的) Science.

The study revealed that women from 15 countries and men from 10 ended up 3.          a lower life expectancy at birth in 2020 compared to 2015.4.             biggest drops in life expectancy，however，were witnessed in men instead of women in most countries.American men were the worst off，with 2.2 years shaved off their life expectancy at birth.Men in Lithuania faced the second 5.                 (large) impact on their life expectancy，with a cut of 1.7 years.

Reductions in life expectancy overall 6.           (occur) in 27 of the 29 countries analyzed by the study.Only men and women in Denmark and Norway and women in Finland managed to 7.            (successful) avoid drops in life expectancy，the study said.Non-pharmaceutical interventions and strong healthcare systems in these countries were cited as 8.            (factor) that could help explain this.

All the countries 9.             life expectancy dropped had taken an average of 5－6 years 10.            (achieve)．Just a one-year increase in life expectancy.The pandemic wiped out of this progress，the study said.

1．答案　published

解析　考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，句中谓语是“was assessed”，空格处是非谓语动词，study和publish是被动关系，因此空格处用过去分词表被动，作后置定语。故填published。

2．答案　was conducted

解析　考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。由by可知，句子用被动语态，由上文可知，这个研究是过去进行的，因此空格处用一般过去时的被动语态，主语“The study”是单数，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填was conducted。

3．答案　with

解析　考查介词。end up with是固定短语，意为“以……结束/告终”。故填with。

4．答案　The

解析　考查定冠词。biggest是最高级，前面用定冠词the，位于句首，首字母大写，故填The。

5．答案　largest

解析　考查形容词最高级。the second后跟最高级，the second largest意为“第二大”，故填largest。

6．答案　occurred

解析　考查动词时态。通篇时态是一般过去时，因此空格处用过去时。故填occurred。

7．答案　successfully

解析　考查副词。空格处用副词修饰动词avoid，故填successfully。

8．答案　factors

解析　考查名词复数。“Non-pharmaceutical interventions and strong healthcare systems”是复数，factor意为“因素”，为可数名词。故填factors。

9．答案　where

解析　考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，空格处引导定语从句，先行词countries在从句中作地点状语，因此空格处填关系副词where。

10．答案　to achieve

解析　考查非谓语动词。“it takes/took sb.some time to do sth.”是固定句型，意为“某人花时间做某事”，其中it是形式主语，真正的主语是不定式。空格处所在句子是此固定句型的变形，因此空格处用不定式。故填to achieve。
