were pleasantly surprised when it tasted good?You arent alone.Some of our favorite foods were created by accident.Heres a sample menu ofsome familiar foods that never would have happened if someone hadnt created them by mistake.POTATO CHIPSOne of the worlds favorite snacks is the result of a complaint.In 1853,a man was eatingdinner at Moons Lake House in Saratoga Springs,New York.He ordered fried potatoes,a popularside dish.But when they came out of the kitchen,he didnt think they were crispy enough.He sentthem back to the kitchen,where Chef George Crum was so angry at having his cooking criticizedthat he sliced the potatoes really thin,put lots of salt on them,and fried them.Not only did thediner love them,but everyone else did,too.They soon became a specialty of the restaurant.TOFUTofu,or bean curd,is made by curdling(使凝结)fresh soya milk,pressing it into a solidblock,and then cooling it.Tofu was accidentally invented in China 2,000 years ago,when a cookadded seaweed to soya milk,which made it curdle.This is the same process that is used formaking cheese.Like cheese,tofu is a great example of how really messing up a recipe can create学科网（北京）股份有限公司第 5 页 共 16 页something unexpectedly good.CHEESE PUFFSDid you ever wonder who thought up cheese puffs?The company that invented them wasnteven trying to make food for people.It was trying to make animal food.In the 1930s,the FlakallCompany of Wisconsin made animal food from small,flaked pieces of grain.One day,anemployee,Edward Wilson,watched workers pouring cornmeal(谷粉)into the flaking machine,wetting it to keep it from clogging(堵塞).Because the machine was very hot,the wet cornmealcame out of it in puffy ribbons that hardened when they hit the air.Wilson took some of theribbons home,added oil and flavoring to them,and voila!Cheese puffs!21.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.Seaweed is also used for making cheese.B.Chef George Crum didnt like to criticize otherscooking.C.Hot wet cornmeal hardened when they hit the air.D.Bean curd dates back to 2000 years ago in China.22.What do the three foods have in common?A.They are the results of complaints.B.They were not created on purpose.C.They werent originally made for people.D.They are all popular throughout the world.23.Whats the purpose of the text?A.To compare the features of some foods.B.To inform readers of some foods.C.To recommend some foods.D.To introduce the origins of some foods.学科网（北京）股份有限公司第 6 页 共 16 页BLike all cultural institutions,galleries and art fairs are adapting to a new reality.Art Basel Hong Kong,Asias biggest contemporary-art fair,was canceled because of covid-19,but anyone he who had planned to visit last week could enjoy an experimental alternative:theviewing room.At the click of a keyboard you could enter an overall view but private visual salon,without having to brave the airless Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.There,on one web-page,was Jeff Koons riffing(翻唱)on Botticellis Primavera in a tributeto the history of painting at David Zwirner Gallery.Ota Fine Arts offered one collector the chanceto acquire an infinity(无限)room“,one of the most Instagrammed artworks of recent years-thecreation of the fantasies,nonagenarian(九十多岁)Japanese artist,Yayoi Kusama.White Cubepresented a large collection of international works by Andreas Gursky(German),Theaster Gates(American)and Beatriz Milhazes(Brazilian).But not every artist,gallery and form showed toequal advantage in this alternative fair.Not surprisingly,simple two-dimensional works in brightcolours came across best.No sculpture or conceptual art was includedBesides depth and texture,there are aspects of gallery hopping that a website is unlikely tocopy.One is serendipity the sense of wandering between artworks and encountering theunexpected.Another is sociability.Art is a communion between artist and viewer,but galleries andfairs are also places to swap opinions and share enthusiasms.There are ways to compensate for these inevitable(不可避免的)disadvantages.As they shuttheir physical doors,some of the worlds nest galleries and museums are offering advancedinteractive visits,360 degree videos and walk around tours of their collections,all without queuesand high ticket prices.One of the best is laid on by the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam;its tour allowsvisitors to view its Vermeers and Rembrandts,including the magnificentNight Watch”,farmore closely than would normally be possible.Another standout offering is from the Museu deArte de SPaulo,which has an even broader collection.On its virtual platform,its paintings,spanning 700 years,appear to be hanging in an open-plan space,seemingly hung on glass panels,or crystal easels”as the museum calls them,ideal for close-up inspection,24.From the paragraph 3,we may know_.A.Primavera was originally painted by JeKoonsB.“infinity room”was the most popular artworks of recent years on social mediaC.White Cube displayed a great many works by artists from different nations学科网（北京）股份有限公司第 7 页 共 16 页D.Various paintings and statues showed on the web-page are well-received25.What does the underlined word serendipity in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A.surpriseB.treasureC.expectationD.compromise26.What is the purpose of writing the last paragraph?A.To introduce some popular art show in the world.B.To show that there are some alternative ways to promote the display during covid-19 epidemic.C.To prove that paintings hung on glass panels can be ideal for close-up inspection,D.To release some information about some extraordinary art shows.27.What is the best title?A.Art beyond the internet.B.Fascinating art.C.Art under covid-19.D.gallery hoppingCBefore you worry about bacon and how much it may cost when new animal welfare laws gointo effect next year,lets talk about the pigs that gave their lives for it.California has been on the forefront of protecting animals who live short lives on factoryfarms either to produce food for us or to be slaughtered and sold as food.The latest advance camein November 2018,when 62.7%of the states voters supported Proposition 12,the Prevention ofCruelty to Farm Animals Act.The law began going into effect last year,requiring hens and vealcalves to be given more space to live in.Starting on Jan.1st,the law will require that all eggs soldin California come from cage-free hens and that pork sold in the state come from breeding pigsthat are not held in cages.These are humane steps designed to lift these animals out of structuresthat barely allow them to move.Pork producers have had the longest time to comply(遵守).Some big companies like HormelFoods have pledged to do so fully,but others have spent the last few years fighting the law ratherthan figuring out how to put it into practice.They say that the law will significantly raise the priceof pork and that it violates the Commerce Clause of the Constitution,which gives Congress solepower over interstate business activity.So far,that fight has been a waste of time that porkproducers could have better spent figuring out how to retrofit(翻新)their farms.学科网（北京）股份有限公司第 8 页 共 16 页They also complain that the regulations on the law are not set.But the California Departmentof Food and Agriculture,which has yet to finalize the regulations,says that the delay should nothave prevented producers from retrofitting their housing for breeding pigs.The agency haspublicly posted draft regulations,which mostly concern record-keeping,certification anddefinitions of terms.For fans of bacon and other pork,any rise in cost is the price of not having a pig suffer beforeits killed for food.Its a price the animals shouldnt have to pay.28.What do we know about Proposition 12?A.The law will come into force next year.B.More space is required for raising hens and pigs.C.Raising hens and pigs in limited space is humane.D.Half of the states voters subscribed to Proposition 12.29.What does the underlined word“pledged”in paragraph 3 mean?A.Suspect.B.Refuse.C.Promise.D.Hesitate.30.Which of the following is TRUE according to paragraph 3?A.Some pork producers have raised the price of pork.B.All the pork producers dont comply with the law.C.Pork producers have wasted a lot of time retrofitting their farms.D.Pork producers resist the Commerce Clause of the Constitution.31.Which word can best describe the authors attitude to the new animal welfare laws?A.Skeptical.B.ConservativeC.Tolerant.D.Favorable.DChinas first group of e-sports major graduates will

available.After the Ministry of Education decided that“electronic sports and management”should be学科网（北京）股份有限公司第 9 页 共 16 页listed in collegesmajor departments in September 2016,around 30 Chinese universities kicked offtheir e-sports major courses in the same year,to meet the needs of the rise of e-sports relatedindustries in the Chinese market.“The major is designed to meet the demand,”said Zheng Duo,co-founder of Tianjin HeroSports Management and a visiting professor from the Communication University of China(CUC).Chinese passion for e-sports is not in doubt,with more than 18,000

training.Thenumber of available jobs is estimated at 500,000,and could reach 3.5 million in the next five years,according to Chinas Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security.Well-known universities such as CUC and the Shanghai Theatre Academy have responded tothe countrys call and are preparing graduates for the e-sports market.Yet not every major graduateis qualified for the positions available,as the jobs normally require practical experience,which issomething a lot of graduates lack.Industry insiders have indicated that e-sports is an industry with rapid iteration(迭代),andsome companies prefer to hire people with experience instead of spending time training recruits.Roughly half of the graduates will enter the gaming industry,said Xiao Pi,an e-sports majorgraduate from CUC.“Some of the rest will pursue further studies for their masters degree.”“Even though e-sports majors have advantages in finding jobs,students need practicalexperience to better suit the different positions,”said Gu Liming,president of Perfect WorldGames.32.What do the public think of e-sports majors according to the text?A.They dont exist in job markets.B.They deserve a
