2."I know when to go out,and when to stay in.",English rock star David Bowie once confidently sang in his hit single.When it comes to consuming food,the decisiveness claimed by the singer-songwriter is hard to achieve.I disagree with the statement and argue it's better to eat out than to order home delivery.
To begin with,when setting foot in a restaurant,we're immediately greeted not only by a server ready to seat us,but by a flood of physical feelings — the eyes take in the internal decoration of the place,the nose breathes in the pleasant smell of expertly plated food and the ears pick up on competing sounds of customer chatter and attractive in-store music.To eat out is to experience an atmosphere unique to each restaurant.Something as special as that simply can't be reproduced by ordering home delivery.Eating out is,without doubt,the more exciting and thus better choice.
Eating out becomes even more appealing when staying home proves too painful.Whether it is because we need a temporary fight from our family or that we simply want to spend some quality time outside with loved ones,going out for a meal can be a break from the hard labour of domestic living.
We could take it as an opportunity for self-care — to treat ourselves by dressing up,arriving in style at a fancy restaurant and ordering a slightly more luxurious meal to refresh our weary soul.Ordering home delivery would only contribute to feelings of being penned in while;eating out is an escape for the trapped individual.
Food delivery app users reason it's a trouble and less convenient to dress up and cat out.
However,it's worth noting we may not always get our food in the most satisfactory condition when opting for home delivery.There's a risk of receiving food orders with missing items or even entirely wrong orders that can't be sent back.What we sacrifice for convenience might just wind up being inconvenient.Consequently,it makes more sense to eat out rather than risk disappointment by ordering home delivery.
(1)What does the author mainly talk about?
A.Dining options.
B.Cuisine culture.
C.Consumption level.
D.Food categories.
(2)What advantage of eating out is highlighted in paragraph 2?
A.Quality service.
B.Comfort and convenience.
C.Sensory enjoyment.
D.A reasonable mix of nutrition.
(3)What does the author think of ordering home delivery?
A.It's quite pricy.
B.It may let consumers down.
C.It may cause food waste.
D.It's not environmental-friendly.
(4)How is the text developed?
A.By providing examples.
B.By following space order.
C.By making comparisons.
D.By analyzing mental processes.組卷:4引用:1難度:0.5 -
3.A school science project by a group of students in Canada has led to an important discovery:
EpiPens might cease to function normally in space.
EpiPens,the auto-injectors (注射器) that deliver life-saving medicine called epinephrine,help with severe allergic(過敏) reactions.The epinephrine opens up airways,maintains heat function and blood pressure and calms the allergic reaction so the person can breathe.
The students working on Program for Gifted Learners (PGL),were curious about how radiation in space would affect the molecular( 分 子 )structure of epinephrine.As part of a NASA initiative called "Cubes in Space," which launches science experiments students come up with,they sent two cubes with samples of both pure epinephrine and EpiPen solution into space one on a rocket and the other on a balloon.With the cubes too small to hold an entire EpiPen the students had consulted with Paul Mayer,a chemist at University of Ottawa and eventually figured out a way to get the EpiPen solution into a specially-made bottle.
The samples were analyzed in a lab before and after returning to Earth.The team found the pure epinephrine samples only returned 87 percent pure — the other 13 percent had turned into poisonous chemicals.And no epinephrine was found in the EpiPen solution samples.
Mayer was skeptical at first that the samples would show any signs of decomposition,but he was blown away by the "dramatic" results."It's brilliant,"he tells Global News."The first part of doing science is asking the right questions,and they asked a fantastic question."
The students' findings could have real-world implications for space travel and astronauts' safety.Excited to have made such a groundbreaking discovery,the students plan to do the experiment again to check their results.They're also working on designing a capsule to protect the EpiPen solution in space.
"You feel like you're making a real change," says student Benjamin Sum,who wants to build rockets when he grows up."It feels like it's just adults.But kids can actually be involved."
(1)What can EpiPens do for human allergic reaction?
A.Cure it for good.
B.Detect its early signs.
C.Stimulate it in time.
D.Relieve it temporarily.
(2)Why were the samples of pure epinephrine and EpiPen solution launched into space?
A.To break down the epinephrine.
B.To test epinephrine's effectiveness.
C.To integrate innovation into clinical study.
D.To confirm they can stand space environments.
(3)What quality of the students impresses Mayer most?
A.Their spirit of commitment.
B.Their unity and teamwork.
C.Their spirit of scientific inquiry.
D.Their sincerity and integrity.
(4)What can be the best title for the text?
A.Kids Find out EpiPens May Not Work in Space
B.PGL:A Program Devoted to Astronomy Research
C.Scientists Team up with Pupils for Space Exploration
D.EpiPens:An Advanced Device Applied to Save Lives組卷:6引用:2難度:0.5

"Oh,no!" Jack shouted while looking at the likes and comments on his recent TikTok video.
"Why aren't people reacting to my content as they used to?"
Jack was a 19-year-old strong and muscular man addicted to the gym.He loved recording exercise videos and posting them on his TikTok account.Initially,his video logs (vlogs) were popular,but his posts' reach soon decreased.
Jack wondered why people had stopped sharing and liking his videos,"Maybe my audience is tired of watching me work out in the gym," he thought,determined to change the location of his videos.
The following day,Jack went to the neighborhood park and began filming while walking on the track."Hi,guys!How about we shake things up a little?I'm to work out in the park today!" he said excitedly,looking into the camera lens (鏡頭).
"Let's look for a good spot to warm up," he said as he walked towards a bench(長椅),on which sat an elderly lady.Jack thought the bench was the perfect place to film his video because of the light.
He put his tripod stand (三腳架) on the bench and set the camera,but he felt like he needed the full bench.He wanted to place his camera where the lady sat,so he gestured to her to move,but the woman didn't seem to understand.
"Get out of my way!" he yelled."Can't you see I'm filming a video?You old fool!" Looking him up and down in surprise,the old lady didn't argue over his disrespectful attitude and quietly walked towards another bench.
Jack set his camera up,pressed the record button and waved at his followers,ready to demonstrate exercises.Suddenly,he tripped on a loose stone,lost balance and fell down,his head striking the bench and bleeding heavily.
Crying in pain,Jack tried to get up,but he didn't have the strength to rise.He collapsed on the ground,screaming desperately for help.
注意:
(1)續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右;
(2)請按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
There was nobody around but the elderly lady.
To Jack's joy,a net friend sent a message saying where the lady lived.
