26、Lily used to be a fitness coach and a social media influencer. The number of her followers reached a million just last month. Every day, she would post photos of herself working out, or just posing in workout clothes. She looked superb in these photos.

【1】, they were not one hundred per cent real. Actually, they were taken by a professional photographer. Besides, they were also carefully edited   【2】. We know that social media influencers sometimes post their photos for fun, but companies pay them to do so   【3】. Lily was no exception. The clothes she was wearing in those photos were sponsored by companies. She was paid to wear them.

Lily was not happy about the photos, though. “I was feeling guilty   【4】,” she said. “I was so ashamed of myself. I couldn't bear living a lie any more. I hope my fans can forgive me.”   【5】, she closed her online account.

27、A British friend told me he couldn’t understand why Chinese people love eating sunflower seeds (嗑瓜子) as a snack so much. “I’ve met a lot of older Chinese and many have a crack in their front teeth, I believe that’s from cracking the seeds,” he said.

I had never noticed the habit, but once he mentioned it, I suddenly became more aware. I realized that whenever I’m watching TV or typing a report, I always start mindlessly cracking sunflower seeds. My friend doesn’t like sunflower seeds, and, to him, it seems unnecessary to work so much just to get one small seed.

In the past, when we were young, the whole family would usually get together for Chinese New Year. Then, we all lived close to one another, usually in a small city, and sometimes we were even neighbors, so we would go door-to-door on Chinese New Year’s Eve to check out what every household was making.

I remember my parents would be always in the kitchen cooking. Out in the living room, a large table would already be laid out with fancy tablecloth, ready-made dumpling fillings, and dishes full of candy, fruits and sunflower seeds. Some of the dishes were to be offered to our ancestors later, while others were for neighbors and children to eat before the evening feast. I must have learned how to crack sunflower seeds back then.

I don’t think it’s right to criticize one’s choice in food or eating habits,no matter how strange they may seem.

It’s not only in China. When I went abroad, I found people had all sorts of strange habits when it came to food. In Denmark, they put salted red fish on bread and eat it for dinner, no matter how much it ruins your breath. They think it’s delicacy (美味佳肴)，and it’s connected to their certain culture. So I think it’s a wonderful tradition.

【1】Why can the British friend not understand when he found Chinese love eating sunflower seeds?

A．Because the seeds are too hard to crack.

B．Because he thinks they are harmful to teeth.

C．Because he doesn’t think the seeds are good.

D．Because he doesn’t think the seeds are worth eating.

【2】What does the writer prove by mentioning Chinese New Year?

A．The families get together for it.

B．Eating sunflower seeds is related to it.

C．The traditions of celebrating it disappear.

D．Children can eat delicious food on that day.

【3】What idea does the writer want to express in this passage?

A．Eating habits come from a certain culture.

B．It is good to form healthy eating habits.

C．Changing your eating habits will change your life.

D．One kind of food doesn’t necessarily suit everyone.

28、   Remember the days when ordering delivery food consisted only of pizza and burgers? Things have changed now. Nowadays the food delivery service is a booming industry. On the surface, the idea of online food delivery seems like a win-win for the customer and restaurant.

【1】 Let’s examine the pros and cons of online food delivery services.

Customers can order their favorite comfort food from the couch while watching their favorite show and having it delivered to their front door. Sounds amazing, right? The convenience attracts many different types of customers, not just unmarried young people who are occupied with work. 【2】   

【3】 Long wait times for online food delivery can often due to traffic, weather, how busy a restaurant is and the complexity of a customer's order. Does a customer want to wait an extra half hour just to have their food delivered? Customers should pick up their food themselves if their hunger cannot wait.

An obvious benefit to restauranteurs in offering food delivery is the increased income they will likely earn.【4】 Due to this, offering delivery services will ensure that they aren't turning away any hungry customers.

Customers are typically paying more money when ordering through an online delivery service, in addition to the cost of the food. These fees can include a booking fee, busy area fees and even a tip to the delivery driver. 【5】

Despite some imperfections, online food delivery services are typically beneficial for both customers and restaurants. They allow customers to diversify their diets from their couches by trying new restaurants and helping restaurants attract new customers.

A．Their restaurants have a limited number of seats.

B．People usually tip less when they are ordering food online.

C．Parents with no time to cook can use online food delivery too.

D．However, this seemingly ideal situation is not without weakness.

E．Ordering from online food delivery services is not a quick experience.

F．Is a sandwich worth that much just because you are too lazy to leave home?

G．A win-win situation means the outcome is beneficial for everyone who is involved.

29、In London a painting show was on in Frida’s honor. Her workings were described as “a ribbon around a bomb”, which suggests Frida had a big influence on the art of her time. Unfortunately, she is actually a much bigger name today than she was during her time.

Born in 1907 in a village near Mexico City, Frida was attacked by polio (小儿麻痹症) at the age of seven. Her spine (脊柱) became bent as she grew older. Then, a severe school-bus crash broke her back in several places. Throughout her life, despite many operations on her, nothing can be able to cure the terrible pain in her back. However, the accident had an unexpected side effect. While lying in her bed recovering, Frida learned to paint by herself.

In 1929, she got married to Diego, another famous Mexican artist. The husband’s strong influence on his wife’s style can be seen in her early works, but her later works from the 1940s, known today as her best works, show less influence from her husband.

Unfortunately, her works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and 1940s, even in Mexico. Her first one-woman show in her motherland was not held until 1953. For more than a decade after her passing away in 1954, Frida’s works still remained largely unnoticed by the world, but in the 1970s her works began to gain international fame at last.

【1】What does the underlined part mean?

A．A much stronger person.

B．A far finer artist.

31、

Attitudes toward new technologies often fall along generational lines. That is, generally, younger people tend to 【1】 older people on the front end of a technological shift.

It is not always the case, though. When you look at attitudes toward driverless cars, there doesn't seem to be a clear 【2】 divide. The public overall is split on whether they'd like to use a driverless car. In a study last year, of all people surveyed, 48 percent said they wanted to ride in one, while 50 percent did not.

The fact that attitudes toward self-driving cars appear to be so 【3】 across generations suggests how transformative the shift to driverless cars could be. Not everyone wants a driverless car now-and no one can get one vet-but among those who are open to them, every age group is 【4】 engaged.

Actually, this isn't surprising. Whereas older generations are sometimes reluctant to adopt new technologies, driverless cars 【5】 real value to these age groups, especially to those with 【6】 mobility or difficulty driving on their own.

This is especially interesting when you consider that younger people are generally more interested in travel-related 【7】 than older ones.

When it comes to driverless cars, differences in attitude are more 【8】 based on factors not related to age. College graduates, for example, are particularly interested in driverless cars compared with those who have less education：59 percent of college graduates said they would like to use a driverless car compared with 38 percent of those with a high-school diploma or less.

Where a person lives 【9】 too. More people who lived in cities and suburbs said they wanted to try driverless cars than those who lived in rural areas.

While there's reason to believe that interest in self-driving cars is going up across the board, a person's age will have little to do with how self-driving cars can become 【10】. Once driverless cars are actually available for sale, the early adopters will be the people who can afford to buy them.
