But many people are now worried that we are producing a generation without the slightest idea of how to cook-a generation that is frightened to cook. I have just received a handout from Focus on Food, which is running a competition to get children back into the kitchen. Has television cooking become a replacement for the real thing? Is this an age where famous professional cooks have turned cooking into a sort of show, with dishes far too difficult for the beginners to copy?I decided to ask my oldest daughter, Miranda, for her opinion. Are children earning enough about the importance of good cooking? Do they know cooking is a basic life skill? Sociology and other "new” subjects are all very well, but without the ability to cook, or to understand the pleasure and principles of good food and its relationship to good health, are we really preparing them for adult life?Miranda started her cooking at the age of nine, when she decided to enter the Sainsbury's Future Cook competition. She was motivated by a different kind of greed: the first prize a trip to Disney World.The problem, from the parental point of view, was that if she made it through to the regional （区域性的）finals, she would have to cook her meal in front of the judges. Some 30,000 children entered and she made it through as the youngest regional finalist. Now she had to learn to cook. Her hands were not even big enough to hold the knife and slice the onions. Six Saturdays running we ate the same lunchMozzarella meatballs in fresh tomato juice and blueberry.First, she cooked by my side, then alone with timings and instructions. Finally, she went alone against the clock. The kitchen looked like a battlefield, but she had gained victory. The tiny be一capped figure then stood in an unknown Bristol hotel, looking like a professional who had been at the stove for years. She didn't win, but she came home with £50 and the most valuable part of them all: confidence.41. The competition run by Focus on Food is intended for.A. Children B. parents C. teachers D. chefs42. Why does the writer think cooking is so important?A. It is an easy way to keep healthy. B. It helps develop relationships.C. It is a necessary skill for life.D. It can save a lot of money.43. The writer's family had the same lunch on six Saturdays because.A.the family stuck to healthy foodB. Miranda had topractice cookingC.the dish was the family's only foodD. the dish wasMiranda'sfavorite meal44. What did Miranda gain from the competition?A. A trip to Disney World. B. Supportfrom friends.C.A medal for the winner. D. Belief in herself.BIn today's short attention span information-overloaded age, there are new challenges for creative workers.For creators, the news and information cycle is so fast that to earn attention for your work suggests you have to keep up with it all. But the other side of that technological coin is that it's easier than ever to make things and distribute them online.Of course the entire planet does not care when yet more media is added to the world. But even 50 years ago, before the Internet, there were more films made each year than anyone could possibly see and more books published annually than anyone could read.Before the web there was often no way to get your work distributed unless you had permission. Given the choice of a) depending on the approval of others to finish projects and share them with the world, but having fewer competitors vs.b) being able to put anything into the world, but I have to compete with everyone else for attention, I definitely choose b. At least I have a chance. At least I can compete, and use my skills at creation as an advantage.Attention from fans matters more than the rest of the world. The most famous people in any media get most of the attention. But the fallacy is that you need to be in that top 1% or 5% to make a living. As a matter of fact, you simply need enough fans and attention to earn you enough money to make a living.A creative life is not the safe and secure path. The more creative the life you choose, the more risk that will come with it. It can be wonderfully rewarding, but you are choosing to compete to earn a living, and even if you do everything right, the chances are that you can still fail. I recommend doing it anyway, since you will learn more about life and yourself by taking the challenging path, but you should do it with your eyes open.45 . In what way was the situation 50 years ago similar to the mentioned one?A. People needed to compete for attention.B. Few people cared about creative works.C. Many people engaged in creative work.D. People had difficulty in spreading their works.46. Why does the author choose "b" instead of "a"?A. He is afraid of fierce competition.B. He wants to have more competitors.C. He is badly in need of more attention.D. He values the opportunity to compete.47. What does the underlined word "fallacy” in Paragraph 5 mean?A. A new opinion.B. A wrong belief.C. A valuable idea.D. A strange concept.48. What's the author's attitude to a creative life?A. Critical. B. Doubtful. C. Supportive. D. Ambiguous.CAccording to scientists, it's a fundamental part of our human nature to look for these qualitiesthe full lips, clear skin and strong shouldersin a mate.Not everyone agrees with this idea, however. "Our hardwiredness（固定）里、维模式）can be changed by all sorts of expectations-mainly cultural；' says C. Loring Brace,a researcher at the University of Michigan. Look in most Western fashion magazines, for example, and the women on the pages are thin. But is this the “perfect” body type for women worldwide? Douglas Yu,a biologist from Great Britain, says no; what is considered beautiful is subjective and varies around the world. Yu found in one study, for example, that native peoples in Southeast Peru preferred shapes regarded as overweight in Western culture.Take another example: In every culture, one's hairstyle sends a clear message. In the Huli culture of Papua New Guinea, men grow their hair long as a symbol of health and strength. Teenage boys in this culture learn from a young age to style and decorate their hair-a behavior more commonly associated with the opposite gender in many cultures. It is also the men in this culture who are the objects of beauty. For certain festivals and celebrations, men dress up and paint their faces. The more colorful a man is, the more attractive he is considered.For better or worse, beauty plays a role in our lives. But it is extremely difficult to define exactly what makes one person attractive to another. Although there do seem to be certain physical traits that are considered universally appealing, it is also true that beauty does not always obey a single, uniform standard. A person's cultural background, for example, may influence what he or she finds attractive in others. In the end, beauty really is, as the saying goes, in the eye of the beholder.49. What can we infer about scientists5opinion in Paragraph 1 ?A. Everyone has a desire to look good.B. There is a generally accepted opinion about beauty.C. Health and strength are equal to beauty.D. Women are hungrier to look attractive than men.50. Which of the following best explains “subjective" underlined in Paragraph 2?A. Personal. B. Complex. C. Powerful. D. Modern.51. What is considered attractive in Huli culture?A. Clear skin.B. Overweight females.C. Colorful men.D. Straight hair.52. What is the main idea of the text?A. Beauty is culture-specific.B. Beauty is reflected in lifestyles.C. Beauty has uniform standards.D. Geography determines attitudes.DThe beautiful island country of Madagascar has a serious school shortage. About a third of Malagasy children have no access to education because the schools are too far away or severely overcrowded. Thinking Huts, a non-profit dedicated to increasing global access to education, plans to tackle the issue with a series of 3D-printed schools, the first of which was completed in April 2022.The 765-square-feet structure, named Bougainvillea, will house 30 students. The construction began with the printer pouring a cement-like（水泥状）mixture in a pattern to create the walls. The entire process took just 18 hours! The roof, doors and windows were locally sourced, and the walls were made of a cement mixture that can resist big environmental pressures in the area. Bougainvillea was 3D printed by 14 Trees, a company with experience printing buildings throughout Kenya and Malawi.Maggie Grouts, the 22-year-old founder of Thinking Huts, is a senior at the University of Colorado and was just 15 when she started Thinking Huts. Adopted from a rural village when she was 18months old, Grout realized that not all kids were as fortunate as her and wanted to help. The idea for the3D-printed schools came to her after brainstorming with her father on ways to use the technology for the greater good.The 3D printing approach shrinks the construction turnaround time from months to days, as well as the cost. This allows more schools to be built in less time and reduces the building's carbon footprints. And these savings in time, cost and materials meet a real need for education infrastructure （基石出设施）to help bridge the global opportunity gap."Thinking Huts hopes to have a Thinking Hut in every community where children do not have a place for education and is fundraising to develop this goal. By using 3D printing, we are combining the potential of technology with architectural solutions that tackle real problems the world faces within education J says Grouts.53. What are 3D-printed schools intended for?A. Reducing construction wastes.B. Helping deal with a shortage of schools.C. Providing high-quality education for local students.D. Drawing public attention to 3D-printing technology.54. Which of the following statements best describes Bougainvillea?A. It has a complex architectural structure.B. It features strong resistance to bad weather.C. It is built with the help of the local government.D. It can hold more students than traditional schools.55. . What can be inferred about Maggie Grouts from the text?A. She is truly creative and warmhearted.B. She had no access to school as a child.C. She is devoted to designing 3D-printed products.D. She raised money for kids from rural areas.56. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 4?A. The advantages of 3D-printed schools.B. The wide popularity of 3D-printing technology.C. The significance of narrowing the global opportunity gap.D. The impact of 3D-printed buildings on the environment.第二节（共4小题；每小题2分，共8分）阅读下面短文和问题，根据短文内容和每小题后具体要求，写下相关信息，完成对该问 题的回答。It's hard to imagine life without smartphones or mobile devices. But it wasn't until 3G that smartphones began to influence and change our life. Since then, faster network speeds have been contributing to the creation and widespread use of cloud technology enabling ride-sharing apps, HD entertainment, and video calls. While 3G and 4G powered these services, 5G represents another connectivity jump beginning this year.5G is known for last speeds, low latency-the time between data request and its delivery, and more capacity-the amount that the data can be contained, setting the stage for immediate improvements to existing experiences as well as the development of new, yet-to-be-imagined technological advancements.From day 1, 5G is designed to make everything faster, providing fiber-like speeds to support great demand for unlimited data. You should notice improved download speeds, superior quality video streaming and virtually instant cloud access as 5G is launched in 2019. And it should be easier than ever to download your favorite series at the airport or deliver massive files to colleagues when you're on the go. What's more, 5G is designed to deliver entirely new real-time experiences we've never had before.One good thing about 5 G and edge computing is extended reality, which could transform your experience from passive watching to living the moment. The other good thing is AR shopping, which can make the shopping experience more fun, an experience that can allow you to see how a sofa will fit in your home, a try-it-before-you-buy-it type of experience.2020 has been declared the year in which 5G will become commercially possible. Global carriers have started 5G speed trials. Developed cities will be the first to experience 5G, as rural areas currently lack the infrastruct
