The hardest part is the process of trying to wo
3、rk out if you should tip and if so, doing the quick math before you get to the door. And, you know well that you should tip about 15-20% at restaurants, but do the same rules apply to delivery drivers?The co-founder of Grubhub, Matt Maloney, pretty much set the standard for tipping delivery people i
4、n a Facebook post. Hes a strong supporter of tipping, and Grubhubs website suggests a $5 or a 20% tip. Maloney also said this number should go up if you order during, say, a snowstorm.However, most other delivery services say on their websites that tipping is not required. Some services, like Door D
5、ash, do suggest no tip on their checkout window. Many, like Amazon Prime Now, allow customers to change their tip amount after their delivery has been received to reflect the quality of service. These companies help customers save money but delivery drivers are upset. They deal with bad weather, hea
6、vy traffic, extreme tiredness, and more, all for a $1 tip. Many feel that if youd tip your pizza boy or girl, you should tip your delivery driver.The Emily Post Institute (EPI)s official suggestion falls in line with Maloneys: “10-15% of the bill, or $2-5 for pizza delivery depending on the size of
7、the order and difficulty of delivery.”Just like servers in a restaurant, delivery drivers almost always rely on your tips for their income. Tipping is a long-standing cultural tradition in America. So, until drones (无人机) can deliver hot dogs straight to your door, its best to tip the people riding t
8、hrough the city at all hours to bring you hot fresh food.1What do we know about tipping delivery drivers?AIt is not widely accepted.BIt upsets many delivery servicesCIt cant reflect the quality of serviceDIt is a deeply rooted tradition in America.2Which of the following suggests the highest tips in
9、 the passage?AThe EPI. BDoorDash.CGrubhub. DAmazon Prime Now.3What is the authors attitude to tipping delivery drivers?ADoubtful. BUnconcernedCDisapproving. DSupportive.Chinese people are, quite rightly, proud of their food. However, when foreigners like Britons and Americans think of Chinese food,
10、their impression of it is different to what you might think.Growing up in the UK, the Chinese food I was used to eating was food I now recognize as being from Guangdong. For example, a typical dish I would order would be pork in sweet and sour sauce, probably with some rice and spring rolls on the s
11、ide. This is the type of food we generally eat because most Chinese immigrants(移民) to the UK have come from Guangdong. You can tell, because when most British people try to copy the sound of Chinese, they actually copy the sound of Guangdong peoplehearing the real Putonghua is sometimes a shock to B
12、ritish people who have grown up thinking it sounds completely different!British attitudes to Chinese food may be changing, though. Chinese-American chef Ken Hom has been on British TV for 30 years, and he told BBC Food: “Chinese food at the beginning of the 80s (in the UK) was sweet and sour pork, m
13、ainly. Most Brits had the unchangeable view of Chinese food. Now you are seeing more local Chinese food from Sichuan, Hunan and other areas of China. It is no longer just Guangdong food.” Similarly, to most Americans, Chinese food doesnt go too far past orange chicken and fortune cookies, but more C
14、hinese local dishes are becoming successful, especially in big cities like New York.Attitudes have not quite changed completely, though. Many foreigners who live in China will be familiar with this question from a relative back at home: “Have they given you dog yet?” Yes, perhaps because people stil
15、l know too little about Chinese culture, many people believe that Chinese people love to eat dog meat. And of course, some people do eat dogs, which to Americans is like “eating a member of 此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号 ones family” according to Vision Times. Also, Chinese people eat many other things
16、people in the West do notchicken claws, duck heads and some animals organs.But what do foreigners think when they come to China and taste real Chinese food? Youll be glad to know that in my experience, the impressions have been very good.4Why are some British people surprised when they hear the real
17、 Putonghua?ABecause it sounds too funny to believe.BBecause its different from what they hear.CBecause they all find it hard to learn.DBecause nobody has been to China before.5What does chef Ken Hom think of the present Chinese food?APopular. BTastier.CRicher DBest.6How does Paragraph 3 develop?ABy
18、giving examples. BBy making inferences.CBy analyzing. DBy reasoning.7What can we infer from “Have they given you dog yet?”?AForeigners dont like eating dog meat at all.BChinese hate dogs so they often eat them.CChinese eat everything including dog meat.DThere are differences between cultures.Wolves
19、travel shorter distances and move slower during snowfall events, according to new research by University of Alberta biologists. The effects were most pronounced at night, when wolves hunt, and behaviour returned to normal within a day. Wolf tracks across snow in northeastern Alberta.“Our findings su
20、ggest that there is something about actively falling snow that causes wolves to slow down,” said Amanda Droghini, a former MSc student in the Department of Biological Science and lead author on the study. “We dont know the exact mechanism behind that. Its unlikely that they were staying still becaus
21、e they were feasting on a recent kill. Instead, active precipitation（降雪量）might affect wolves hunting abilities. Like rain, snow clears the air column of scent molecules. So, maybe falling snow makes it harder for wolves to detect the smell of prey.”Over the course of two winters, the researchers use
22、d remote cameras to disclose snowfall events and estimate snow depth. To study wolf movement, they collected telemetry（测距仪） data from 17 wolves to calculate travel speed and duration, as well as resting periods. It is the first study to examine how large flesh-eating animals respond to snowfall even
23、ts.With the effects of climate change on precipitation in the north forest region uncertain, it is difficult to predict the implications for wolf populations. Studies such as these increase our understanding of how large mammals react to normal snowfall events, but the type and amount of winter prec
24、ipitation will likely have an impact on animal behavior and the energetic cost of movement.“Winter is already challenging for many wildlife species because moving through snow requires more energy. Snow can also make it harder for animals to access food resources,” said Droghini, who conducted the r
25、esearch under the supervision of Professor Stan Boutin, Alberta Biodiversity Conservation Chair.“Anything that increases those costs, such as increased rain-on-snow events, could lead to lacking in nutrition, poor body condition, and even starvation as animals are unable to make up for those additio
26、nal costs. That is one of the worst-case scenarios（设想）but, in truth, we know very little about potential changes to precipitation patterns and how wildlife will respond to those changes.”8Which one is the closest to the underlined word “disclose” in paragraph 3?Aidentify BoverlookCovercome Ddisturb9

28、behind the phenomenonCresearchers have collected data by using modern technologiesDresearchers will most probably go on studying the phenomenon11Where can we probably find this article?Atourist leaflets.

29、 officer, Lou Sanson, caused an argument in October by suggesting that it should be time to start charging tourists for entering national parks. New Zealanders are keen fans of these parks. Many would be annoyed at having to pay. But many also worry about the incoming foreign tourists who have been
30、seeking the same fun.In 2016 New Zealand hosted 3.5m tourists from overseas; by 2022 more than 4.5m are expected every year about the same as the countrys population. Tourism has become the biggest export. The national parks, which make up about one-third of the country, are a huge draw. About half
31、of the foreign tourists visit one. They are keen to experience the natural beauty promised by the countrys “100% Pure New Zealand” advertising campaign (and shown off in the film adaptations of “The Lord of the Rings”and “The Hobbit”, which were shot in New Zealands breath-taking wilderness).But for
32、 every happy foreign couple posting for a selfie next to a tuatara (楔齿蜥) there is a NewZealander who remembers the way things used to be when you could walk the tracks without running into crowds at every clearing. Many locals now wonder why their taxes, as they see it, are paying for someone elses
33、holiday. Mr. Sanson would seem to agree. Entry fees could be used to upgrade facilities such as car parks and trails. A charge could also help reduce numbers at some of the popular locations by making it cheaper to use lesser-known, but no less beautiful, trails far away from home.Some are not so su
34、re it would work. Hugh Logan, a former chief of conservation for the government who now runs a mountain climbing club, worries it would cost too much to employ staff to take money from hikers at entrances. It would also be difficult to prevent tourists from entering the parks without paying.Some arg
35、ue that it would be easier to charge visitors a “conservation tax” when they enter the country. The Green Party, the third-largest in parliament (议会), says that adding around NZ$18 ($12.50) is still acceptable to foreign tourists. But some travel companies dont quite agree with the idea. They note t
36、hat tourists already contribute around NZ$1.1bn through the countrys 15% sales tax. Better, such firms say, to use foreign tourists contribution to this tax for the protection of the parks.Among the fiercest critics of a charge are those who point out that free access to wilderness areas is an impor
37、tant principle for New Zealanders. It is documented in a National Parks Act (法案) which inspires almost constitution-like devotion among the countrys nature-lovers. Mr. Sanson has a rocky path ahead.12Why do some people support charging tourists visiting national parks?ABreath-taking wilderness deser

BAttractionCBusiness DPuzzle.14Which of the followi
39、ng may Hugh Logan agree with?AIt may not be easy to collect the entry fee in some cases.BIt would be more practical to charge at the border of the country.CIt would be more acceptable if only foreign visitors are charged.DIt may not be reasonable to charge as tourists have already paid taxes.15What
40、type of writing is this passage?Asocial documentary. BA news report.CA scientific paper. DA travel leaflet.二、七选五For some people, walking or running outdoors is a great way to exercise. What may not be so great is seeing rubbish all over the ground. Well, some people are doing something about it. 16
41、“Plogging” began in Sweden. The name connects the Swedish word “plocka,” which means to pick up, and the word “jogging,” which means to run slowly.A Swedish man named Erik Ahlstrm, started the movement in 2016. He moved to Stockholm from a small community (社区) in northern Sweden. Each day he would r
42、ide his bike to work. He became worried about the amount of rubbish and litter he saw each day on his way to work. So, he took matters into his own hands. He began picking up the rubbish. 17Today, plogging is an official activity, which is becoming more and more popular. People of all ages are welco
43、me to plog. Exercise while helping your community. 18 It can also build closer social connections in a community. When the street looks bad and its dirty, youre going to feel bad about the community. You may even feel less safe because of that. So if were all doing our part and picking it up, its ve
44、ry easy to help beautify it, and help build those social connection. 19 You get to feel some social duty when you do this.Along with cleaning up the environment, there may be another reason to choose plogging instead of just jogging. You may get a better workout. One fitness app, Lifesum, records on
45、e hour of plogging as burning 288 calories. 20As can be seen, cities around the world now hold plogging events. The goal is to spread the idea that littering is not acceptable. People would think twice before dropping a garbage on the ground.APlogging is equal parts of exercise and community service
46、.BAnd that is how plogging was born!CAnd plogging does good to your health.DUsual jogging burns about 235 calories.E. They are plogging!F. There are people all around the world doing this.G. You get to know your neighbors.三、完形填空Devon Gallagher, a college graduate from Philadelphia, wants the world t

One day I had a sudden 32 that my new leg could be used as a blackboard,” Gallagher said. “My mum and grandmother werent too 33 the idea, but my friends thought it was great and told me to go for it, so I did.”Gallagher said people often stare when shes 34 on her leg, but once she shares the photos, she 35 only praise and encouragement. “My leg hasnt 36 me from doing anything Iv
