The hardest part is the process of trying to work out if you should tip and if so, doing
12、 the quick math before you get to the door. And, you know well that you should tip about 15-20% at restaurants, but do the same rules apply to delivery drivers?The co-founder of Grubhub, Matt Maloney, pretty much set the standard for tipping delivery people in a Facebook post. Hes a strong supporter
13、 of tipping, and Grubhubs website suggests a $5 or a 20% tip. Maloney also said this number should go up if you order during, say, a snowstorm.However, most other delivery services say on their websites that tipping is not required. Some services, like Door Dash, do suggest no tip on their checkout
14、window. Many, like Amazon Prime Now, allow customers to change their tip amount after their delivery has been received to reflect the quality of service. These companies help customers save money but delivery drivers are upset. They deal with bad weather, heavy traffic, extreme tiredness, and more,
15、all for a $1 tip. Many feel that if youd tip your pizza boy or girl, you should tip your delivery driver.The Emily Post Institute (EPI)s official suggestion falls in line with Maloneys: “10-15% of the bill, or $2-5 for pizza delivery depending on the size of the order and difficulty of delivery.”Jus
16、t like servers in a restaurant, delivery drivers almost always rely on your tips for their income. Tipping is a long-standing cultural tradition in America. So, until drones (无人机) can deliver hot dogs straight to your door, its best to tip the people riding through the city at all hours to bring you
17、 - 5 -hot fresh food.21. What do we know about tipping delivery drivers?A. It is not widely accepted. B. It upsets many delivery servicesC. It cant reflect the quality of service D. It is a deeply rooted tradition in America.22. Which of the following suggests the highest tips in the passage?A. The
18、EPI. B. DoorDash. C. Grubhub. D. Amazon Prime Now.23. What is the authors attitude to tipping delivery drivers?A. Doubtful. B. Unconcerned C. Disapproving. D. Supportive.BChinese people are, quite rightly, proud of their food. However, when foreigners like Britons and Americans think of Chinese food
19、, their impression of it is different to what you might think.Growing up in the UK, the Chinese food I was used to eating was food I now recognize as being from Guangdong. For example, a typical dish I would order would be pork in sweet and sour sauce, probably with some rice and spring rolls on the
20、 side. This is the type of food we generally eat because most Chinese immigrants(移民) to the UK have come from Guangdong. You can tell, because when most British people try to copy the sound of Chinese, they actually copy the sound of Guangdong peoplehearing the real Putonghua is sometimes a shock to
21、 British people who have grown up thinking it sounds completely different!British attitudes to Chinese food may be changing, though. Chinese-American chef Ken Hom has been on British TV for 30 years, and he told BBC Food: “Chinese food at the beginning of the 80s (in the UK) was sweet and sour pork,
22、 mainly. Most Brits had the unchangeable view of Chinese food. Now you are seeing more local Chinese food from Sichuan, Hunan and other areas of China. It is no longer just Guangdong food.” Similarly, to most Americans, Chinese food doesnt go too far past orange chicken and fortune cookies, but more
23、 Chinese local dishes are becoming successful, especially in big cities like New York.- 6 -Attitudes have not quite changed completely, though. Many foreigners who live in China will be familiar with this question from a relative back at home: “Have they given you dog yet?” Yes, perhaps because peop
24、le still know too little about Chinese culture, many people believe that Chinese people love to eat dog meat. And of course, some people do eat dogs, which to Americans is like “eating a member of ones family” according to Vision Times. Also, Chinese people eat many other things people in the West d
25、o notchicken claws, duck heads and some animals organs.But what do foreigners think when they come to China and taste real Chinese food? Youll be glad to know that in my experience, the impressions have been very good. 24. Why are some British people surprised when they hear the real Putonghua?A. Be
26、cause it sounds too funny to believe.B. Because its different from what they hear.C. Because they all find it hard to learn.D. Because nobody has been to China before.25. What does chef Ken Hom think of the present Chinese food?A. Popular. B. Tastier. C. Richer D. Best.26. How does Paragraph 3 devel
27、op?A. By giving examples. B. By making inferences.C. By analyzing. D. By reasoning.27. What can we infer from “Have they given you dog yet?”?A. Foreigners dont like eating dog meat at all.B. Chinese hate dogs so they often eat them.C. Chinese eat everything including dog meat. D. There are differenc
28、es between cultures.CWolves travel shorter distances and move slower during snowfall events, according to new research by University of Alberta biologists. The effects were most pronounced at night, when wolves hunt, and behaviour returned to normal within a day. Wolf tracks across snow in northeast
29、ern Alberta. “Our findings suggest that there is something about actively falling snow that causes wolves to slow down,” said Amanda Droghini, a former MSc student in - 7 -the Department of Biological Science and lead author on the study. “We dont know the exact mechanism behind that. Its unlikely t
30、hat they were staying still because they were feasting on a recent kill. Instead, active precipitation(降雪量)might affect wolves hunting abilities. Like rain, snow clears the air column of scent molecules. So, maybe falling snow makes it harder for wolves to detect the smell of prey.”Over the course o
31、f two winters, the researchers used remote cameras to disclose snowfall events and estimate snow depth. To study wolf movement, they collected telemetry(测距仪) data from 17 wolves to calculate travel speed and duration, as well as resting periods. It is the first study to examine how large flesh-eatin
32、g animals respond to snowfall events.With the effects of climate change on precipitation in the north forest region uncertain, it is difficult to predict the implications for wolf populations. Studies such as these increase our understanding of how large mammals react to normal snowfall events, but
33、the type and amount of winter precipitation will likely have an impact on animal behavior and the energetic cost of movement. “Winter is already challenging for many wildlife species because moving through snow requires more energy. Snow can also make it harder for animals to access food resources,”
34、 said Droghini, who conducted the research under the supervision of Professor Stan Boutin, Alberta Biodiversity Conservation Chair.“Anything that increases those costs, such as increased rain-on-snow events, could lead to lacking in nutrition, poor body condition, and even starvation as animals are
35、unable to make up for those additional costs. That is one of the worst-case scenarios(设想)but, in truth, we know very little about potential changes to precipitation patterns and how wildlife will respond to those changes.”28. Which one is the closest to the underlined word “disclose” in paragraph 3?
36、A. identify B. overlook C. overcome D. disturb29. Increased precipitation might have the following effects on animals except - 8 -_.A. poor health B. nutritional shortageC. hunting ability D. losing appetite(食欲)30. It can be inferred from the passage that _.A. researchers find it difficult to predic
37、t the implications for wolvesB. researchers have found the mechanism behind the phenomenonC. researchers have collected data by using modern technologiesD. researchers will most probably go on studying the phenomenon31. Where can we probably find this article? A. tourist leaflets. B. sports newspape
38、rs. C. science magazines. D. advertising posters.DNew Zealands chief conservation (环保) officer, Lou Sanson, caused an argument in October by suggesting that it should be time to start charging tourists for entering national parks. New Zealanders are keen fans of these parks. Many would be annoyed at
39、 having to pay. But many also worry about the incoming foreign tourists who have been seeking the same fun.In 2016 New Zealand hosted 3.5m tourists from overseas; by 2022 more than 4.5m are expected every year about the same as the countrys population. Tourism has become the biggest export. The nati
40、onal parks, which make up about one-third of the country, are a huge draw. About half of the foreign tourists visit one. They are keen to experience the natural beauty promised by the countrys “100% Pure New Zealand” advertising campaign (and shown off in the film adaptations of “The Lord of the Rin
41、gs” and “The Hobbit”, which were shot in New Zealands breath-taking wilderness).But for every happy foreign couple posting for a selfie next to a tuatara (楔齿蜥) there is a NewZealander who remembers the way things used to be when you could walk the - 9 -tracks without running into crowds at every cle
42、aring. Many locals now wonder why their taxes, as they see it, are paying for someone elses holiday. Mr. Sanson would seem to agree. Entry fees could be used to upgrade facilities such as car parks and trails. A charge could also help reduce numbers at some of the popular locations by making it chea
43、per to use lesser-known, but no less beautiful, trails far away from home.Some are not so sure it would work. Hugh Logan, a former chief of conservation for the government who now runs a mountain climbing club, worries it would cost too much to employ staff to take money from hikers at entrances. It
44、 would also be difficult to prevent tourists from entering the parks without paying.Some argue that it would be easier to charge visitors a “conservation tax” when they enter the country. The Green Party, the third-largest in parliament (议会), says that adding around NZ$18 ($12.50) is still acceptabl
45、e to foreign tourists. But some travel companies dont quite agree with the idea. They note that tourists already contribute around NZ$1.1bn through the countrys 15% sales tax. Better, such firms say, to use foreign tourists contribution to this tax for the protection of the parks.Among the fiercest
46、critics of a charge are those who point out that free access to wilderness areas is an important principle for New Zealanders. It is documented in a National Parks Act (法案) which inspires almost constitution-like devotion among the countrys nature-lovers. Mr. Sanson has a rocky path ahead.32. Why do
47、 some people support charging tourists visiting national parks?A. Breath-taking wilderness deserves higher charge.B. Locations become more popular because of movies.C. Tourists have disturbed the peace of the locals.D. The government needs more money to upgrade facilities.33. What does the underline
48、d word “draw” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Shelter. B. Attraction C. Business D. Puzzle.- 10 -34. Which of the following may Hugh Logan agree with?A. It may not be easy to collect the entry fee in some cases.B. It would be more practical to charge at the border of the country.C. It would be more
49、acceptable if only foreign visitors are charged.D. It may not be reasonable to charge as tourists have already paid taxes.35. What type of writing is this passage?A. social documentary. B. A news report. C. A scientific paper. D. A travel leaflet.第二节: 七选五 (共 5 小题,每小题 2 分, 满分 10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 For some people, walking or running outdoors is a great way to exercise.
