But of the most commonly consumed by locals, Yorkshire pudding rank high on lhe list. You*re probably familiar with roast bee£ but how about Yorkshire pudding? It's the star side dish, made of a battcr（糊）comprised of eggs, flour, milk, or waler. As a clever way to use the fat that dropped from cooking meat, it gained increasing popularity in the north of England.Italy: PizzaWhen the moon hits the sky, like a big pizza pie—that's Italy's prized dish. Since the infamous pizza, tomato, and cheese dish originated in the Southern Italy city of Naples, ifs no wonder this dish is well-known in the country—and around the world.U.S.A.: HamburgerIf wc have to choose the signature dish of the United States, we're going with a good old-fashioned hamburger. Technically speaking, the humble burger might a dish we brought over from Europe, as it's tied to the European immigrants in the 1800s who found their way to American soil via the Hamburg Line ships.  Which of the following used to be a royal dish?  Peking duck.

B. Europe. C. Southern Italy. D. The Hamburg Line.BEveryone receives gifts. If you're lucky, a gift that comes your way on no particular occasion can restore your understanding of giving and getting. That sort of gift can remind you of the meaning of a great gifl: while it was given to you, its life extends far beyond your possession.I have such a gift irom my friend Harry. H is a piece of sculpture called Who-Who. It came from the studio of Thomas, a B.C. sculptor. Seeing it, Hany thought it would be right for my garden, so he christened it 小勺o, and gave it a home.It has been there fbr several years, until recently. Our local museum and gallery was preparing a show of Thomas' works. I told the director of the gallery that I had a Thomas' work. When he looked at the picture of it, his eyes opened wide. "Please, can we borrow it for the show? ”I managed to get it into the gallery, where the director, still over the moon, stared at it, shaking his head: "We thought it was lost.”A few days after the opening, the director brought me a note from Thomas' wife, who had attended the opening ceremony. She had been very touched to see              again after so many years. Il must have broughtback the memory of their life together. As for me, I felt quite pleased with myself for spreading so much delight around with so little eflbrt. Il made me realize that you never own real gifts. You take care of them until there is a time and place for them to move on. It was wonderful that the gift could find its way back to the people who knew it best.   What can be the best title for the text?   Sculptures can make good gifts   Who- who is popular with the public   The best gifts last beyond the present   Friendship can be gained through gifts   What does the underlined word” christened** in Paragraph 2 probably mean?   Made. B. Named. C. Showed. D. Considered.   How did the director fbcl upon seeing Who- WholA. Pitiftil. B. Upset. C. Confused. D. Excited.   What docs the last paragraph suggest?   Everyone should leam to share.   It's better to give than to receive.   It's a blessing to have a gifl shine.   We all should keep our gifts well.COn November 8, Americans will head to the voting booth and cast their votes for the next president of the United States. As always, this time-honored tradition falls on a Tuesday, but why? The answer, it turns out, has a lot to do with buggies（四轮马车）and farmers' markets.The Founding Fathers of America met in 1787, NPR explains, but at the end of the meeting they still had not answered a number of questions about how to run an entire nation. One of those stood out: the timing of federal elections. As a quick fix, they decided to leave it to individual states to set their ovvn voting days, which led to several decades of "electoral chaos/' NPR writes.In 1845, Congress（国会）decided to sort things out. Monday was out, lawmakers reasoned, since most people would have to travel to the polls （投票点）in their buggies on Sunday, which wouldn't sit well with church­goers. Wednesday wouldn't work, either, since mid-week usually meant market day for farmers, who made up the great majority. Again, Thursday didn't fit the bill because of the buggy-traveling time （which would cut into market day）. And Friday? Well, NPR doesn't say, but who wants to deal with such a serious matter at the vciy end of the week?
So, Tuesday was the day, and that seemed lo work great for 19th century voters."In the 1840s, elections were a big to-do — there was a lot of fun/' Ritchie says. “Whole families would come on buggies from the farms; people would get dressed up lor the occasion.v Though the America of buggies and markets has long since given way to minivans and supermarkets, NPR concludes, Tuesday remains the day we vote.   Whal is the text mainly about?   Why Americans vote on Tuesdays.   What Americans actually vote for.   How to fix a proper day to vote.   Paying attention to your voting right   What bolhered the Founding Fathers most?   How to get the states united.   How to run such a big country.   The structure of the Constitution.   The day to hold genera) election.   How does Paragraph 3 develop?   By listing examples.    By oflering statistics.    By analyzing cause and eflect.   By ordering the days of a week.   What can be inferred from the text?   Most Americans were farmers in the 19th century.    Buggies were the only means of iransportation then.    Most Americans didn't care about the election at all.   Friday is always regarded as a serious day for church.DAs Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less? If you know your computer will save infbimation, why store it in your own personal memory? Experts arc wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.In a recent study. Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know whether the Inlemct is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant tacts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find lhe information again, so they did not Iry lo remember it.In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts lo remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a specific computer folder （文〈牛夹）.Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called "transactive memoiy （交互记忆）"・According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactivc memories; that is, people arc learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn't mean we arc becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.  The two questions in Paragraph 1 are mainly used to          .A. show the author's feeling B. introduce the main topic  describe Intemet-users' habits D. explain why to save information  WTial can we leam about lhe first experiment?  The computer was specially designed by Sparrow.  The two groups were equal to each other in memorizing.  The first group paid less attention to storing the information.  The second group couldn't figure out lhe information al all.  In terms of processing information, people with transactive memories tend lo           .A. keep the information in mind B. change the quality of informationC. organize information like a computer D. remember how to find the information  According to Sparrow's research, what can be concluded?   People arc using memory diflerently.   People are becoming smarter than ever.   People have become stronger in character.   People today can access more information.第二节（共5小题；毎小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。For many of us, going to college is a right of passage that eventually takes us into the adult world of responsibility, knowledge, money and opportunity. 36 But as a whole, studies plainly show the more educated we are, the more productive we are in society and life. Delow are the top four reasons to go to college.Become more knowledgeable in several areas. Almost every degree in college will require that you study some core subjects such as English, math and communication skills. 37 Some areas w山 help you in all parts of life. For example, the ability to speak in front of a group of people may be something you use in volunteer work for organizations or in groups of friends.38 College is oflen a mix of many diflcrent people from many diflerenl walks of life.
