restaurant that hires monkeys for the job. in order to make them look more human, the restaurant owner even masks(用面具遮掩) their faces.the restaurant is kayabuki, which a traditional japanese restaurant. they have hired a couple of monkeys named yat-chan and fuku-chan to work as waiters (or waitresses, were not sure). 16-year-old yat-chan is the older of the two, but he moves quickly between tables as he takes the customers drink orders. fuku-chan gives customers a hot towel and helps them clean their hands before they order their drinks, as is the custom in japan. believe it or not, the pair is actually certified(授予执照) by local authorities to work at the restaurant. the customers like them as well, so they give them beans as tips. one customer, takayoshi, said, “the monkeys are actually better waiters than some really bad human ones.”yat-chan and fuku-chan were once the household pets of the restaurant owner, kaoru otsuka. but the older one started imitating him in restaurant duties, and that was when he realized they were actually capable of working there. “yat-chan first learned by just watching me working in the restaurant,” he said. “it all started when one day i gave him a hot towel and he brought the towel to the customer.”some customers even feel that the little monkeys are just like children, or even better. 62-year-old shiochi yano, a regular at kayabuki, says, “actually, theyre better. my son doesnt listen to me, but yat-chan will.” customers also say that yat-chan is able to understand exact orders and remember them. “we called out for more beer,” said one customer, “and he just brought us some beer. its amazing how he seems to understand human words.”5. what can we learn about yat-chan and fuku-chan?a. they both get beans as tips.b. fuku-chan is older than yat-chan.c. yat-chan helps customers clean their hands.d. fuku-chan takes the customers drink orders.6. according to takayoshi, the two monkey waiters .a. can understand exact

were able to work like waiters.d. the officials encouraged him to hire the monkeys.【答案】5. a 6. d 7. b 8. c【解析】本文介绍日本餐厅用猴子当服务员。5. a细节理解题。根据第二段中the customers like them as well, so they give them beans as tips.可知a项. they both get beans as tips.符合题意。6. d细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“the monkeys are actually better waiters than some really bad human ones.”可知两个猴子服务员比一些不好的人类服务员举止更好。故选d。7. b词义猜测题。根据第三段中的that was when he realized they were actually capable of working there. “yat-chan first learned by just watching me working in the restaurant,” he said那时他才意识到他们实际上能在那里工作。yat-chan最初只是通过观看我在餐厅里工作来学习。因此可知上文the older one started imitating him in restaurant duties中的划线词的意思应该是“模仿”，根据句意可知选b。8. c推理判断题。根据第三段中that was when he realized they were actually capable of working there. “yat-chan first learned by just watching

otsuka发现猴子能像服务员一样工作。故选c。【名师点睛】做词义猜测题时，千万不要脱离开语境，根据划线词前后的内容进行合理地推理判断，选出正确答案。本题第3小题，根据第三段中的that was when he realized they were actually capable of working there. “yat-chan first learned by just watching

solve a familiar problem: its football night and you order a ham and mushroom pizza for you and your friends. it arrives later than youd hoped and its cold.zume co-founder julia collins says, “pizza is not meant to sit in a cardboard box. the best pizza comes right out of the oven.”in reality, people tend to order pizzas instead of eating them in a restaurant. most pizzas are delivered in a cardboard box and are not hot when they arrive, so they dont taste that good. zumes solution is a delivery truck which is equipped with 56 mini-ovens.heres how it works. a customer places an order on the app. inside the zume factory, a team of mostly robots puts the 14-inch pizza into its own oven. whether the truck has five pizzas or 56, it needs just one human worker to drive and deliver them to your doorstep.“she doesnt have to think about when to turn the ovens on or off,” collins says. “she doesnt have to think about what route to take or whom to go to first. all of that is controlled by our algorithm.” four minutes before the truck is scheduled to arrive at a doorstep, the algorithm starts the oven(or ovens) to finish cooking that order. each pizza is then put into a special pizza box, which is not made of cardboard. the driver then parks, cuts the pizza with a special knife and delivers it hot.when you call a pizza store and are told “itll take an hour,” you hang up and it doesnt get your business. because zume is run mostly by robots, it doesnt have that problem. this week, zume is beginning to use trucks to deliver to real customers in mountain view.12. which pizza tastes best, according to the text?a. one that is made by a factory.b. one that is right out of the oven.c. one that is delivered to your home.d. one that is packed in a cardboard box.13. how does a customer order a pizza from zume?a. by making a call. b. by using an app.c. by contacting some robots. d. by stopping a delivery truck.14. what does the underlined word, “it”, in the last paragraph refer to?a. zume pizza. b. the truck.c. the robot. d. the pizza factory.15. which of the following would be the best title for the text?a. the most popular pizza shop b. an advanced delivery systemc. how to make pizza more delicious d. robots guarantee better pizza【答案】12. b 13. b 14. a 15. d【解析】本文介绍加利福尼亚的一家新pizza店zume pizza。它用机器人和计算程序来经营商店。12. b细节理解题。根据第二段中the best pizza comes right out of the oven.”可知最好的比萨来自烤箱的右边。根据句意可知选b。13. b细节理解题。根据第四段第二句a customer places an order on the app.可知客户在应用程序上下订单。故选b。14. a词义猜测题。根据最后一段中because zume is run mostly by robots, it doesnt have that problem. this week, 因为zume因为zume主要由机器人运行，它没有这样的问题。可知it指zume。15. d主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句in mountain view, california, theres a new pizza shop zume pizza. it has robots and algorithms(计算程序) running the shop.可知d. robots guarantee better pizza是文章的最佳主题。第二节（共5小题：每小题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。homework is a good thing. it helps you practice what youve learned during the day and establish study habits that
