Dear Alex:
Thank you for your last letter. But I'm really worried about you because of your eating habits.
I know you like restaurant food and you are very picky about it. I don't think this is good for your health. Although the food in the restaurant is delicious, eating too much there means eating too much oil, salt and sugar. More importantly, if you don't have all kinds of food, your body can't absorb enough nutrition.
These eating habits may hurt you and even cause some health problems. In order to enjoy a better life, I think you should give up these habits, try to cook at home and keep a balanced diet.
Yours,
Li Hua
Partial analysis
Reading comprehension:
The first section:
(Personal situation)
This article is a narrative. The author tells the reason why she gave up using smart phones.
21.D. Detail comprehension questions. According to my strictest technical rule for my children-no equipment in the bedroom, the author doesn't allow her children to use electronic equipment in the bedroom.
22.d Inference and judgment questions. The author describes the changes after she used the smart phone: from never being bound by electronic devices to looking at the phone first every day, from reading books frequently in her spare time to holding the phone in her hand all the time. Since she got a smart phone, the author has become more and more dependent on it.
23.b. Inference and judgment questions. From the penultimate paragraph, the author describes her eldest daughter's reaction when she saw her half-hearted chat, while in the penultimate paragraph, the eldest daughter said, "My friends multitask much better online." We can see that the eldest daughter is familiar with her mother's practice, which is not surprising and doesn't mind at all.
24.d Detail comprehension questions. Starting from the last paragraph, I deleted my application. When I finished, my smartphone used to be just a phone-something I could forget in the car. We can see that the author finally deleted the application in the smartphone and turned it into an ordinary mobile phone.
Part B (Health)
This article is argumentative. The article shows readers some psychological diseases brought by modern life-family disorder, information fatigue, haste and lack of motivation syndrome.
25. A. Reasoning and judging questions. Judging from the second paragraph that her apartment is always messy, Margaret is not a neat person.
26. C. Detail comprehension questions. From the mental illness fatigue syndrome and haste described in the third and fourth paragraphs, we can see that their similarity is stress.
27. B. Understanding the details. From the penultimate paragraph, Steven described his state: "I can finish my work in about four hours, but I dare not say anything about it." . I don't want to be assigned too much work. Steven doesn't want to be under pressure.
C (diet)
This article is explanatory. On Christmas Eve, there was a shortage of butter in Japan, and the stock was in a hurry. Although the government has taken urgent remedial measures, it is still not enough to meet the market demand.
28. B. Text structure. It can be seen from the turning point of the word that some butter is needed to make this delicious food, but on the top, the underlined part refers to the butter needed to make Christmas cake.
29. C. Detail comprehension questions. It can be seen from the first paragraph that Japanese people love to celebrate Christmas Eve with "Christmas cake" that eating cakes during Christmas is very popular in Japan.
30. Answer. Reasoning and judging questions. In the third to fifth paragraphs, the article analyzes the reasons for the shortage of butter in Japan-extreme weather has reduced the milk production of dairy cows, many young people are no longer willing to become dairy farmers, and the government has reduced the number of dairy farms. It can be seen that Japan is now facing a cow crisis.
3 1. C. Inference and judgment questions. The penultimate paragraph mentioned that although the Japanese government imported 654.38 million tons of butter from overseas, it could not alleviate the shortage of butter during Christmas this year. In the last paragraph, Audrey Aksu said that for many shoppers, there is either margarine or nothing this Christmas. She thinks that the Japanese government's response to the shortage of butter supply is a drop in the bucket. For most customers, they still need to use margarine, otherwise there will be no butter this Christmas.
D (society)
This article is explanatory. This paper introduces Mary Anderson, the inventor of automatic wiper, and Joseph Cochrane, the inventor of dishwasher.
32. B. Understanding the details. According to the second paragraph, it is manually started by the lever in the car, and the movement of the arm is also obvious. The wiper invented by Anderson needs manual operation.
33.d Inference and judgment questions. As can be seen from the second paragraph, although Anderson successfully obtained the patent right of her invention, she did not have the right to sell it, so she did not get rich because of it; As can be seen from the third paragraph, Cochrane's invention, the dishwasher, was patented in 1886 and appeared in the 1893 World Expo, but it was not successful at first, and it took more than half a century to become a household name. It can be inferred that the inventions of these two female inventors were not accepted by the world at first.
34. C. Inference and judgment questions. According to the last sentence of the article, the author is grateful to Anderson, Cochrane and other female inventors, because their inventions have changed the world, but regrets that they have not won the prize or been recognized by the world.
35. C. Summary of topics. As can be seen from the last paragraph, very few women have obtained patents in history, because many obstacles prevented women from obtaining patents at that time, and they lacked the same rights as men, but the patented inventions of Anderson and Cochrane broke these obstacles. In item C, break barriers more accurately summed up that women's inventions broke the world's prejudice against women.

6 1. Pain. Investigate the usage of the verb -ing as the object. Avoid doing sth. It means "avoid doing something".
