There were traffic jams every afternoon, but it didnt bother me. Most passengers were nice enough, although I cant remember most of them. I liked to show tourists our beautiful city. A lot of tourists from Asia visited Vancouver. In the evening, I took people out to restaurants, clubs and theatres. It was interesting to see people dressed in their best clothes for parties.

Think of the meal a family enjoys in the evening when everyones together after work or school, or the big get-togethers over food at Spring Festival. But now, in the age of the Internet and social media, anyone with an Internet connection can enjoy a social eating event.Mukbang-a South Korean phrase meaning “eating broadcast”-is an unusual food fanaticism thats sweeping the country. This is a meal where only one person gets to eat, while many viewers watch live shows of hosts eating large quantities of food. They leave comments on the dishes the host is taking, and the host responds to them live.So why have people taken to this unusual new food trend(趋势)? Jeff Yang, an Asian-American cultural critic, thinks that its down to “the loneliness of unmarried or uncoupled South Koreans”. He believes that eating on your own can be hard in a country like South Korea, where social eating is such a long tradition. However, Mukbang gives people the feeling that they are part of something larger, it seems.Millions of people have trouble with food. Either they eat too much of it, or too little. Some say that the popularity of Mukbang helps people with these disorders. Those who always eat too much and put on weight can watch Mukbang live shows to satisfy their appetite (胃口). And those who dont eat enough can build their appetite by watching delicious food being eaten.Even though Mukbang is a South Korean phenomenon, its also taken off in the US. But unlike South Koreans who sit down to enjoy noodles and kimchi (泡菜), Americans enjoy their own native dishes. This means that viewers of US Mukbang live shows will see locals stuffing themselves with hamburgers, fries and ice cream.21. The underlined word “fanaticism” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to _.A. disappointment B. enthusiasm C. dislike D. imagination22. According to Jeff Yang, Mukbang is becoming popular in South Korea mainly because _.A. people are used to eating aloneB. its good for those who have eating disordersC. it helps to comfort the lonely peopleD. it assists people to build their appetite23. What is the article mainly about?A. A traditional Korean eating habit.B. A new food trend from South Korea.C. How Koreans communicate through eating.D. How the Internet affects the way we eat.【答案】21. B 22. C 23. B【解析】本文介绍来自韩国的一种新的食品趋势mukbang(韩语，意为“美食广播”)。它是席卷韩国的一种不同寻常的美食狂热。【21题详解】词义猜测题。根据第二段中This is a meal where only one person gets to eat, while many viewers watch live shows of hosts eating large quantities of food.“这是一顿只有一个人吃的饭，而许多观众在现场观看主持人吃大量食物的节目。”可知，Mukbang-a South Korean phrase meaning “eating broadcast”-is an unusual food fanaticism thats sweeping the country.“mukbang(韩语，意为“美食广播”)是席卷韩国的一种不同寻常的美食狂热。”中的划线词的意思是“狂热”。故选B。【22题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段中thinks that its down to “the loneliness of unmarried or uncoupled South Koreans”. He believes that eating on your own can be hard in a country like South Korea, where social eating is such a long tradition. However, Mukbang gives people the feeling that they are part of something larger, it seems.“认为这是由于“未婚或未婚韩国人的孤独”。他认为，在韩国这样一个社交饮食有着悠久传统的国家，独自吃饭可能会很困难。然而，Mukbang给人的感觉似乎是，他们是更大的事情的一部分。”因此推断，节目受欢迎是因为有助于安慰孤独的人。故选C。【23题详解】主旨大意题。根据第二段第一句Mukbang-a South Korean phrase meaning “eating broadcast”-is an unusual food fanaticism thats sweeping the country.可知，本文介绍来自韩国的一种新的食品趋势mukbang(韩语，意为“美食广播”)。它是席卷韩国的一种不同寻常的美食狂热。故选B。BEver since mobile phones became widely used around the world, there have been concerns about how safe they are. All mobile phones give off a small amount of radiation when in use, which many believe could be a cause of cancer. However, two recently published studies tried to finally answer the question of whether using mobile phones actually brings a dangerous risk to humans.Carried out by the US government, the studies exposed rats and mice to radiation over the course of two years. A small number of the rats were found to have developed heart tumors (肿瘤) as a direct result of the radiation exposure. However, John Bucher, one of the studys authors, said that the animals were exposed to far more radiation than even the heaviest mobile phone user would usually be, reported The New York Times. Bucher also added that the findings didnt make him want to change his or his familys mobile phone usage habits.Indeed, the US Food and Drug Administration said it believes that it has “not found enough evidence that there are negative health effects on humans” from mobile phone use. Although mobile phones do give off radiation, its a different type of radiation than that given off by dangerous sources.High-energy radiation such as that given off by nuclear waste is known to be very dangerous to humans as it is able to damage our DNA, leading to cancer or even death. On the other hand, low-energy radiation such as the one given off by mobile phones is considered to be harmless.Were exposed to this all the time, as its given off by everyday objects like WiFi routers (路由器), televisions, and even bananas. Some argue that when it comes to human health, however, you cant be more concerned, even if the risk is only small. For those people, an earphone is advised when they are making phone calls and the time spent using mobile phones can be limited.But dont worry: theres no need to take bananas off the menu.24. What did the two recent studies by the US government discover?A. Radiation exposure could bring risks to animals rather than to humans.B. Too much radiation exposure could lead to health problems.C. Using mobile phones only increases the risk of heart diseases.D. There is no link between mobile phone radiation and cancer.25. Why did the author mention other types of radiation?A. To inform people of harmful radiation sources. B. To explain how radiation affects our lives.C. To show mobile phone radiation is not so dangerous. D. To remind readers to keep away from radiation.26. What does the author suggest by saying “theres no need to take bananas off the menu” in the last paragraph?A. People should use a mobile phone giving off radiation as little as bananas.B. Its unnecessary for people to get rid of the mobile phone due to its radiation.C. Bananas should be included in the menu for people to keep health.D. Eating bananas can help people against radiation given off by mobile phones.【答案】24. B 25. C 26. B【解析】本文是一篇说明文。美国政府最近的两项研究发现过多的辐射会导致健康问题，而低能量辐射比如手机辐射被认为是无害的。【24题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段中High-energy radiation such as that given off by nuclear waste is known to be very dangerous to humans as it is able to damage our DNA, leading to cancer or even death.可知，美国政府最近的两项研究发现过多的辐射会导致健康问题。故选B。【25题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段中Although mobile phones do give off radiation, its a different type of radiation than that given off by dangerous sources.和On the other hand, low-energy radiation such as the one given off by mobile phones is considered to be harmless.可知，作者之所以提到其他类型的辐射是为了显示手机辐射没有那么危险。故选C。【26题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中Some argue that when it comes to human health, however, you cant be more concerned, even if the risk is only small. For those people, an earphone is advised when they are making phone calls and the time spent using mobile phones can be limited.“然而，一些人认为，当涉及到人类健康时，即使风险很小，你也应该担心。对于这些人来说，当他们打电话时，建议使用耳机，而且使用手机的时间是有限的。”由此推知，But dont worry: theres no need to take bananas off the menu.中的but“但是”表示转折，作者在暗示人们“们没有必要由于手机的辐射丢弃它。”故选B。CIve never been the kind of person to say, “its the thought that counts” when it comes to gifts. That was until a couple of weeks ago, when my kids gave me a present that blew me away.For years now, Ive been wanting to sell our home, the place where my husband and I raised our kids. But to me, this house is much more than just a building. In the front room, theres a wall that has hundreds of pencil lines, marking the progress of my childrens growth. Every growth stage is marked in grey, with each childs name and the date they were measured. Most people I know have been featured on a wall like this, or at least had a wall like it in their home.Of all the objects and all the memories, its this one thing in a home thats the hardest to leave behind. Friends I know have returned home after work only to discover their wall of heights has been freshly painted over. A new paint job wouldnt normally be greeted by tears, but erasing that evidence of motherhood hurts more than it should. Our kids grow in so many ways, but the wall is physical evidence of their progress, right there for everyone to see.Over the years, Ive talked about how much I would hate leaving that wall behind when I moved, even though the last marks were made 10 years ago when my kids stopped growing. So one day, while I was at work, my children decided to do something about it.They hired Jacquie Manning, a professional photographer whose work is about capturing (捕捉) the beautiful things in life, from clear lakes and skies to diamonds and ballgowns. She came to our house while I was
