2．Toni Morrison，an American writer who received the Nobel Prize in Literature，was admired as the country's greatest living writer and died at age 88.Her novels，Beloved，Song of Solomon，and others explored the way African-Americans search for freedom and identity in a country obsessed（熱衷）with skin color.
She published her first novel The Bluest Eye in 1970.Eighteen years later，she won the Pulitzer Prize for her novel Beloved，the story of a mother who kills her baby daughter rather than permit her to be born into slavery（奴隸制）.It became a best-seller and was later made into a film.The Nobel Prize committee described her writing as "language itself，a language she wants to liberate from race." Her novels discussed America's past，focusing on black history and the effects of racism on individuals.
She was born Chloe Ardelia Wofford in Lorain，Ohio，in 1931.Her father worked in a steel factory，and her mother was a maid.She attended Howard University，an all-black university in Washington，D.C.At Howard，she read African，British and American literature，including writers William Faulkner and Virginia Woolf. "The writers who affect me the most were novelists who were writing in Africa：Chinua Achebe，Things Fall Apart was a major education for me，" she told the Associated Press in 1998.
After a short marriage，she became a single mother of two sons and worked as a book editor in New York.Several publishers rejected her first book，The Bluest Eye，but it impressed The New York Times' book critic John Leonard who believed Morrison was an important new voice.He said her writing was "so charged with pain and wonder that the novel becomes poetry."
Morrison enjoyed her literary fame and was proud of her Nobel Prize."Nobody was going to take that and make it into something else.I felt representational.I felt American.I felt Ohioan.I felt blacker than ever.I felt more woman than ever.I felt all of that and put all of that together and went out and had a good time，" she said.

3．France is getting tough with food waste with great determination.A new law has been passed in the country that will ban grocery stores over 4，305 square feet from throwing away unsold food.If it's still safe to eat，the food must be donated to charity；if not，it goes to farmers for use as animal feed or compost（肥料）.
Supermarkets will no longer be allowed to destroy unsold food intentionally in order to prevent people from eating it.There are many people who search for food in the garbage cans behind stores，wanting to take advantage of the perfectly edible（可食用）food that gets thrown away on a daily basis；and yet some stores try to stop this，either by locking the garbage cans or pouring bleach（漂白劑）into them，a practice that Guillaume Garot，the former French food minister who proposed the new bill，describes as "scandalous."
Food waste is a global problem，with an estimated 24 percent of calories produced for human consumption never getting eaten.Most of this waste happens at the final consumption stage.It is reported that "the average French person throws out 20 to 30 kilograms of food a year-7 kg of which is still in its wrapping." American shoppers throw away about one-fifth of everything they buy at the grocery store，according to a fascinating new documentary called "Just Eat It".
The supermarkets aren't happy about the new law because their food waste represents only 5 to 11 percent of the 7.1 million tons of food wasted annually in France.By contrast，restaurants waste 15 percent and consumers 67 percent."The law is wrong in both target and intention，" argues Jacques Creyssel，head of the distribution organization for big supermarkets."Big stores are already important food donors."
Despite this，F(xiàn)rance's new law is a move in the right direction.Wasting food absolutely needs to become a socially immoral thing to do-much like throwing garbage on the ground.If law is what's needed to get people thinking about conservation and edibility，then it's not a bad thing.
（1）How should supermarkets handle unsold food by the new law？
A．They should leave it alone.
B．They should give it away.
C．They should sell it at lower prices.
D．They should drop it into garbage cans.
（2）What does the underlined word "scandalous" in Paragraph 2 mean？
A．Inconvenient.
B．Challenging.
C．Impractical.
D．Unacceptable.
（3）What is Paragraph 3 mainly about？
A．The seriousness of food waste.
B．The reasons for food waste.
C．The consequences of food waste.
D．The solution to food waste.
（4）What do the supermarkets think of the new law？
A．It is strict.
B．It is ineffective.
C．It is unfair.
D．It is well-intentioned.組卷：7引用：1難度：0.5

"This Radio Two．This is the one o'clock news．A she wolf escaped from the Dorford Zoo this morning and is believed to be still at large in the Dorford area．If hungry the wolf might be dangerous．If anyone sees this animal，please inform the nearest police-station．"
Mrs．Clarke switched the radio off：she wanted to make her middy lunch before her baby woke up．She pushed the pram（嬰兒車）into the garden，left it under a tree out of the sun and went into the kitchen．
Then minutes later she came to the back door to see if everything was all right．A big dog was standing by the pram looking at the baby．"That's the Johnson's dog．I've told them they ought to keep that great animal in their own garden．Those dogs are a bit too much like wolves．" Then Mrs．Clarke went cold．"Wolves．What have I heard about wolves？" She was sure she had heard something about an escaped wolf on the radio．She looked hard at the creature by the pram-and the more she looked the more certain she became．It wasn't the dog from next door．Like it，but different．It was as big as the dog，but the color was greyer and it looked thinner．
At this moment the creature put its front legs on the side of the pram and looked at the sleeping baby，licking its face．The baby woke up and began to cry quietly．
Mrs．Clarke wanted to scream，but she knew it would be wrong to do that．What should she do？"Inform the police，" the radio had said．But that meant leaving the garden and going to the telephone near the front door．She was sure that somehow she must get the wolf away from the prom．The she remembered the piece of meat she had bought．It was on the kitchen table．
注意：
1．續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
2．請(qǐng)按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
Very quietly she slipped into the kitchen and came back with the meat．_____________
