(2016·河南洛阳统一考试)The world welcomes the new year! From New Zealand to New York, the world eagerly celebrated the New Year, hoping for a better future after a year of diseases, struggles and disasters.

The islands of Samoa and Tokelau in the Pacific Ocean and places located near the International Date Line mark the dawn of the New Year.As celebrations spread westward, fireworks lit up the night sky in towns and cities around the world, as celebrators partied on the streets.

In some parts of the world, the New Year’s celebrations were, let’s say, rather unusual.In many European countries as well as in Coney Island, New York, swimmers braved freezing water temperatures for a dip in the ocean or lake on January 1.In Rome, Italy, divers jumped off the 59­foot­high Cavour Bridge into the Tiber River.Londoners rang in the New Year with a massive fireworks display with dozens of rockets lighting up the night sky.The Scots’ celebration of New Year is also called “Hogmanay”．A torchlight procession led by men dressed as Vikings kicks off four days of Hogmanay celebrations in Edinburgh, Scotland.The procession ends with the burning of a Viking long ship.Hogmanay is the Scottish word for the last day of the year.Street festivals are held on each day culminating in a fireworks display.

In New York, hundreds of thousands gathered to witness a huge ball with more than 30, 000 lights descended at midnight.This tradition was adopted by The New York Times (after whom the square is named) in 1908 to attract crowds to celebrate the paper’s new headquarters.The ball has dropped every year since then except during the wartime years of 1942 and 1943.The first ball was made of iron, but now 2, 688 crystal(水晶) triangles decorate this lighted ball.

Unit 2　Language(B卷)

Ⅰ.阅读理解

(2016·辽宁沈阳高三质检)If you bought some candy months ago but never ate it, how can you tell whether it is still safe to eat？The easiest way is to check the “use­by date” printed on the wrapper.If that date has already passed, you’re likely to throw the candy away.But is that really necessary?

According to a new report from the US Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), tons of food is wasted each year, largely because people don’t fully understand what expiration dates, or use­by dates, actually mean.

Food dating was introduced in the 1970s because consumers wanted more information about the things that they were eating. When they first showed up, use­by dates were only supposed to indicate freshness because producers wanted their products to be tasted in their best conditions.

But the truth is that these dates aren’t related to the risk of food poisoning or food­born illness, according to Time News.However, most customers misinterpreted use­by dates and related them to the safety of the food, and they still largely do now.

Eggs, for example, can still be eaten three to five weeks after purchase even though the use­by date is much earlier.When their use­by dates pass, strawberry­flavored drinks may lose their red color and biscuits may lose their crunch(嘎吱嘎吱的声音), but they are not harmful.“It’s a confusing subject, the difference between food quality and food safety, ” said Jena Roberts, vice president of National Food Lab, a US food testing company. “Even in the food industry I have colleagues who get confused.”

This is why scientists are calling for a standard explanation to be printed following the use­by dates. “We want this to be clearly communicated so consumers are not misunderstanding the date and contributing to a lot of waste, ” said Dana Ganders, a staff scientist with the US NRDC.

But this won’t be a mistake that is easy to correct since people have believed it for so long.Another problem is that the quality levels of different foods change differently—some are still safe to eat long after their use­by dates while others are not.

As a result, food industry officials are now thinking of changing the use­by date to a date indicating when food is most likely to go bad.

【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。大多数人都认为保质期一到， 食物就不能吃了。读过这篇文章后， 你将发现事实并非如此。

1．The use­by date was first intended to________ .

A．tell the freshness of food

B．show the safety of food

C．give a warning of food poisoning

D．indicate the relation between food and illness

A　解析：细节理解题。根据第三段第二句中的 “When they first showed up, use­by dates were only supposed to indicate freshness” 可知， 应选A项。

2．The underlined word “misinterpreted” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________ ”．

A．made guesses about

B．formed a wrong idea about

C．made wrong use of

D．took no notice of

B　解析：词义猜测题。根据文章第四段的第一句和第六段的内容可知， 此处指人们误以为这些日期和食品是否有毒或者过期后食用是否会导致疾病有关。故选B项。

3．Which of the following is TRUE?

A．Most customers understand what use­by dates mean.

B．Use­by dates have existed for more than 50 years.

C．Biscuits can’t be eaten when not as crunchy as they were bought.

D．Even after their use­by dates pass, some foods are still safe to eat.

D　解析：正误判断题。根据第五段的内容可知， 很多食品尽管过了保质期， 但是仍然能吃， 故选D项。

4．Scientists are calling for a standard explanation to be printed together with the use­by dates because________________________________________________________________________.

A．use­by dates are not helpful or reliable

B．more consumers get worried about food safety

C．most consumers often misunderstand use­by dates

D．the quality level of different foods changes differently

C　解析：细节理解题。根据第六段的内容和第七段的第二句可知， 科学家要求解释保质期是因为很多人误解了它的含义。故选C项。

(2016·江西八所重点中学联考)It is reported that thirty cellphones taken away by teachers during the examination and were smashed(粉碎) in front of students and parents at a high school.As to this, we hold a heated discussion.There are two different viewpoints about them.
