There are so many expressions in American English that sound pleasant but are not. 【1】 When someone says they have to "face the music", it does not mean they are going to a concert. "Facing the music" means to accept and deal with the punishment (懲罰)of an action.

【2】. For example, "I can't face another night of camping! It's cold and rainy." Or "In life, you must face your fears." Face used in this way is very common. But now, let's go back to facing the music. Imagine a friend asks you to take care of her beautiful red sports car. She gives you the keys and says, "Thanks so much for watching my car while I'm away. But please, do not drive it. It is an extremely (極其) fast car." 【3】. You want to show off to some friends. So, you drive it around town one night. As bad luck would have it, you lose control of the car and drive it into a stop sign. Bang!

When your friend returns, you must tell her what you have done and "face the music". 【4】. It could be losing her friendship or paying for repairs to her sports car or both. Whatever the music is, you must face it.

【5】. To "take your medicine" means to accept the results from something bad you have done. And if someone says, "You made your bed. Now lie in it." they mean you created a bad situation and now you will experience the results!

A.But you do not listen.

B. "Face the music" is a good example.

C. The "music" here is the result of your actions.

D. However, you think the music is wonderful and you can sing very beautifully.

E. There are other American expressions that mean the same thing as "face the music".

F. Americans often use the word "face" in this way

【題目】 More and more British people are deciding not to eat meat and animal products. As a result, vegetarianism(素食主義) is increasing in the UK. According to the Vegetarian Society, 2000 people are giving up meat and “going veggie(素食)” in Britain every week. There’s even a National Vegetarian Week organized every year to encourage people to try a meat-free lifestyle.

Vegetarians and vegans

Vegetarians are people who don’t eat or use any animal products. They are becoming more and more common in the UK culture. A recent survey showed that 3 million people (5.7 percent of the country’s population) were vegetarians.

A healthy diet

So why are British people cutting out meat? Many are unhappy about the poor treatment of animals and the effects of meat and fish production on the environment. Worries about food safety, for example mad cow disease, also play a part. Others choose to change their eating habits to get healthier. According to the Vegetarian Society, a meat-free diet could help prevent the certain cancers, as well as heart disease and high blood pressure(壓力).

Organic(有機(jī)的) farming

Another rising trend appears in the UK’s food production. They want their food to be organically produced. Organic farmers use very few or no chemicals. Organic meat is produced without the use of drugs. Organically farmed animals also have more living space and more good food. According to the Soil Association, three out of every four UK families now buy some type of organic food.

【題目】You may never know how valuable something is when it can not be fixed. And it could be a lovely moment you lose forever.

I grew up with very practical parents. My mother washed aluminum foil (鋁箔紙) after she cooked in it, then reused it. She was the recycle queen, before they had a name for it.

My father was happier getting old shoes fixed than buying new ones. Their marriage was good. Their dreams focused. Their best friends lived so near. I can see them now, Dad in trousers, T-shirt and a hat and Mum in a house dress, lawn mower (割草機(jī)) in one hand, dishtowel in the other.

It was the time for fixing things — a curtain rod (桿), the kitchen radio, the oven door, the hem (褶邊) in a dress — things we kept.

It was a way of life, and sometimes it made me crazy. I wanted just once to be wasteful. Waste somewhat meant affluence (富裕). Throwing things away meant you knew there would always be more.

But then my mother died, and on that clear summer’s night, in the warmth of the hospital room, I was struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn’t any more.

Sometimes what we care about most gets all used up and goes away… never to return. So, while we have it, it’s best we love it, care for it, fix it when it’s broken, and heal it when it’s sick.

This is true for marriage, old cars and children with bad report cards, dogs with bad hips, aging parents and grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it, because we are worth it.

【1】The writer really wanted to tell us .

A. her mum was the recycle queen.

B. her dad liked fixing old shoes.

C. throwing things meant there would be more

D. we should cherish (珍惜) what we care about while we have it

【2】What does the underlined word “struck” mean?

A. knockedB. touchedC. stuckD. caught

【3】Which of the following is NOT mentioned according to the passage?

A. Fixing things is a way of life.

B. Waste somewhat meant affluence.

C. The writer’s family was very poor.

D. The writer’s parents were practical.

Passage5

Have you ever spent more money than you were planning in the supermarket? Don’t blame(責(zé)備> yourself. In fact, supermarkets always do something special to mislead(誤導(dǎo)> you into buying more. Here are some examples.

10 For $10

It sounds like a great idea to you. However, you’ll save the same money even if you only buy one item(商品>. A recent survey has found when people see 10 for $ 10, five for $ 5 and one for $1, their mind usually feels them into thinking it’s a good idea to buy more.

Bigger Carts(購物車>

Have you found that the supermarket carts are growing? The bigger the cart is, the more things you’ll get, so try to use a hand basket next time.

Pre-Cut(事先切好的> Vegetables and Fruits

Pre-cut vegetables and fruits look attractive with their colorful packing. However, they aren’t exactly good for you. Pre-cut vegetables and fruits can be a lot more expensive than the whole items. Besides, these pre-cut vegetables and fruits go bad faster.

Where Is Everything?

Shelves in the supermarkets don’t stay at the same place all the time. The stores are actually doing it on purpose(故意>, because if you don’t know where the items are, you’ll spend more time in the store. More time to look around means more chances to buy more items.

【1】How many examples does the writer give us?

【2】What do people usually think when they see 10 for $ 10?

【3】Are the supermarket carts growing bigger and bigger?

【4】Why aren’t pre-cut vegetables and fruits good for us?

【5】Why don’t shelves in the supermarkets stay at the same place all the time?

【題目】閱讀短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題。

They say that "seeing is believing", but when it comes to TV advertisements, this is not always the case.

The world's leading mobile phone maker, Apple, published its latest model Iphone XS on September 13th. The smart phone was supposed to own an advanced camera, which lets customers shoot better pictures at night and record stabilized(穩(wěn)定的)videos. To show how well these features work, the company published an ad showing a man and a woman riding bicycles side by side, with the man taking a video of the woman on the phone. However, several hours later, technology website The Verge uncovered that the video was neither shot with the new product, nor shot from someone riding a bicycle. Instead, someone in a lorry next to the woman took the video using a professional video camera.

The next day Apple apologized, "In an effort to show the benefits of visual image stabilization, we produced a video that looks like what we will be able to deliver." Indeed, what we have seen in ads is more or less a simulation－a practice called "advertising photography".

McDonald's video in June explained the "art". It showed how its burgers get dolled up (裝扮)before going on camera. Like models preparing for a magazine cover shoot, burgers also get designed in a photography studio. They are prepared for hours and put together very carefully so they look their best before photo shoots. Each ingredient, such as onions and sauce, is carefully put into place to make the burger look much juicier, bigger and tastier. Computer software photoshop is also used to add visual effects.

So don't feel surprised when you get a burger that never looks like what you see in ads.

【1】When did Apple publish its latest model Iphone XS?

____________________________________________________________

【2】Was the video of the woman taken by the man riding a bike?

【題目】閱讀表達(dá)閱讀下面的短文，然后根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題。

In 2014, the world paused to remember a cultural giant on April 17. Nobel Prize winning writer Gabriel Garcia Marquez died on that day at the age of 87.

Garcia Marquez was born in Colombia (哥倫比亞), but lived in Mexico for more than 30 years. He is one of the 20th century’s most famous writers. He is best known for his novel, One Hundred Years of Solitude (《百年孤獨(dú)》). It tells the story of a family over several generations. The story is a metaphor (暗喻) for the development of Colombia since the 19th century. The novel has sold about 50 million copies.

He wrote in a style called “magical realism (魔幻現(xiàn)實(shí)主義)” This style blends (融合) fantasy and reality. In such works, people live regular lives during a certain period of time in history. But meanwhile, magical things happen to them.

In Garcia Marquez’s works, a child is born with a pig’s tail, and a couple finds an old man with big wings in their courtyard. He said he was inspired by childhood stories told by his grandmother. She believed that everything was possible. She often told him stories about ghosts in their house.

But his works are quite serious. He wrote during a period when much of Latin America was suffering from a civil war. Everyday life in Colombia was filled with chaos (混亂). That’s why magical realism works well.
