By 2050，the United Nations says,we're going to need 70 percent more food to feed the nine billion people living on Earth.Sara Menker says the problem may be even more urgent than the U.N.suggests.In 2017，she gave a TED talk in which she said a "tippingpoint," beyond which global food markets become too overloaded to function effectively,could come in just a few years.
"We discovered tliat the world will be short 214x1012 calories by 2027，she said.Or,in more familiar terms： "A single Big Mac has 563 calories.That means the world will be short 380 billion Big Macs in 2027.That is more Big Macs than McDonald's has ever produced."
Menker cannot change the world alone.But the firm she started,Gro Intelligence,is providing information that food companies,insurers,lenders and policymakers use to make food production more effective,and perhaps help protect against that tipping point.
Gro tracks 650xl012 data points daily-from sources such as government and local food reports,satellite photos,long-term weather forecasts and greenhouse gas measurements-and creates computer models so that food companies,such as Unilever and Yum!Brands,can know how prices are likely to trend,calculate surpluses （过乘!））and shortages,and be more flexible when climate change makes food supplies harder to predict.
A type of artificial intelligence known as machine learning is key to dealing with the data because,as Allison Tepley of Gro's staff put it, "The best information is often local information,but it's often in local languages,in different forms and it all needs to be puttogether.55
Gro has sounded warnings on African swine fever in China （which cut pork production 30 percent in 2018）， in East Africa in 2020 and global inflation （通货膨胀） in food prices.
8.What is the problem mentioned by Menker？ ______
A. Food shortage. B. Overloaded markets.
C. Overpopulation. D. Wrong prediction by the U.N.
9.What does Menker mean by her words in paragraph 2？ ______
A. The problem is serious.
B. Her discovery is more accurate.
C. Big Macs contain too many calories.
D. McDonald's should increase productivity.
10.What does Gro do to help food companies？ ______
A. Get resources.
B. Monitor greenhouse gases.
C. Analyse big data.
D. Assess surpluses and shortages.
11.What might the underlined words"locust infestation" be in the last paragraph？ ______
A. A data-driven drug. B. A language-based approach.
C. A food-related disaster. D. A production-centered policy.
D
Many people think that there should be some sort of universal service around cash,forcing banks to provide it and sellers to accept it.I disagree,but I do understand why they think that forcing the additional costs associated with cash on financial institutions and merchants seems appealing.
One of their arguments is that cash is a necessary fallback,the only payment method that society can depend on in the event of nuclear war or natural disaster and therefore businesses should be forced to keep the ability to distribute and collect notes and coins.They think that cash is the backup in a disaster.It really isn't.When things go really wrong,it is the people who keep their money in cash who suffer the most.
Remember the Japanese disaster of a decade back,where following a severe earthquake off the northeast coast of Japan's Honshu Island in 2011，a huge tsunami （海啸）towering a hundred feet above the ground went crashing into cities,towns and villages destroying more than 200 square miles.Since Japan remains a cash-based society and a great many people keep their savings in cash in their homes,the disaster led to the unusual phenomenon of safes and cash washing up on beaches.Yasuo Kimura,a former bank employee then aged 67，said that he had many friends who lost everything. "I had tried to convince them to put their money in a bank J he said. "They always thought it was safer to keep it at home."
Another argument they make is that electronic payment can be bad for privacy,making cash remain the best backup.They ask "How do you stop data thieves and data brokers from monitoring your buying history？" and suggest paying in cash is the answer.Personally,I think using privacy-enhancing （增强隐私的）technologies when making electronic payments is a better answer,but that's a discussion for another day.
12.What makes many people think it necessary to force cash service on banks？ ______
A. The duty of banks. B. The reliability of cash.
C. The need to cut costs. D. The demand from sellers.
13.What was one of the results of the Japanese disaster in 2011？ ______
A. The quake destroyed over 200 square miles.
B. 100 towers were swallowed by the tsunami.
C. Japanese started to keep money in banks.
D. Many Japanese lost their backup money.
14.What does the author think of electronic payment？ ______
A. It is not good for privacy.
B. It still leaves much to be desired.
C. It is safer than cash payment.
D. It often falls into the wrong hands.
15.What can be the best title for the text？ ______
A. Is E-payment Safe？
B. Lessons from a Natural Disaster.
C. Is Cash the Backup？
D. Appeal of Universal Cash Service.
Ahh…Fish,chips and mushy peas!There is nothing more British than fish and chips.Freshly cooked,boiling hot fish and chips,topped with salt and seasoned with vinegar,packed in newspaper and eaten out-of-doors on a cold and wintry day-it simply cannot be beaten!
(1)
Both Lancashire and London claim to be the first to invent this famous meal.Chips were a cheap,basic food of the industrial north while fried fish was introduced in London's East End. (2) So was born our national dish of fish and chips!
(3) Mr.Lees sold fish and chips from a wooden shelter in the market.Later he moved the business to a permanent shop across the road.However in London,it is said that Joseph Malin,a Jewish immigrant,opened a fish and chip shop in Cleveland Way within the sound of Bow Bells in the 1860s.
Fish and chip shops were originally small family businesses,often run from the front room of the house and were commonplace by the late19th century,through the latter part of the 19th century and well into the 20th century,the fish and chip trade expanded greatly to satisfy the needs of the growing industrial population of Great Britain.Fish and chips became vital to the diet of the ordinary people. (4)
In 1999，the British consumed nearly 300 million servings of fish and chips.That equates to six servings for every man,woman and child in the country. (5) That's 17 for every one Burger King restaurant,making British Fish and Chips the nation's favourite take-away.
A.It quickly became a favourite of the workers.
B.People soon decided to put fried fish and chips together.
C.John Lees owned a restaurant and sold the famous pairing.
D.So how,when and where did this British dish come about？
E.There are now around 8，500 fish and chip shops across the UK.
F.Some shops had to employ doormen to control the queue at busy times.
G.The first fish and chip shop in Lancashire is thought to have opened in 1863.

My Favorite After-school Activity______
Bird Song "Let it go!" Caroline yelled.Two boys were bending over a bird,as a third one held the poor creature roughly by its wings, "You'll hurt it." Caroline looked fearful for the bird.
"That's the point." The boys laughed.The tallest stood up and glared at Caroline. "Here,catch this!" He said as he sailed the now broken-winged bird at Caroline.The poor creature cried in pain,as its wings had been badly damaged.The boys ran on laughing at their handy work.
Caroline bent down to carefully pick up the bird.The poor feathered soul was wriggling （扭动）about,with a fearful look in its eyes. "Don't worry," Caroline whispered softly.She took a handkerchief from her pocket and gently placed the bird on it.
Caroline walked as quickly as she could back to her house,careful not to shake the bird around too much.She found a shoe box,filled it with soft cotton balls and then laid the bird down in its new resting place.
"Let me get you some water and food.That's the least I can do." She took a tiny saucer from the kitchen,filled it with water,and placed it in a comer of the box.She managed to find some sunflower seeds,as that was the only bird-friendly food she could think of.Caroline was worried.She didn't want the bird to die.The poor bird was now fast asleep,no doubt tired out from its earlier suffering."Please don't die." Caroline whispered tearfully.
If there was anyone whom she could turn to,it would be Mr.Roberts.Mr.Roberts was working at the nature museum.He had bird feeders throughout his yard,and sometimes would drop in her science class at school.Caroline never knew there was so much information about birds,until hearing him speak.She figured he would know what to do.

（4）F.逻辑关系题。根据上文Through the latter part of the 19th century and well into the 20th century,the fish and chip trade expanded greatly to satisfy the needs of the growing industrial population of Great Britain.Fish and chips became vital to the diet of the ordinary people.（从 19世纪下半叶到20世纪，炸鱼和薯条贸易大大扩张，以满足英国不断增长的工业人口的需求。炸鱼和薯条对普通人的饮食至关重要。）可知本段主要讲炸鱼和薯条成为越来越重要的饮食，被大众所接受， F项：Someshopshadtoemploydoormentocontrolthequeueatbusytimes.（有些商店在繁忙时不得不雇佣门卫来控制排队。）承接上文，符合语境，故选F。
（5）E.细节理解题。根据上文In 1999，the British consumed nearly 300 million servings of fish and chips.That equates to six servings for every man,woman and child in the country. （1999年，英国食用了近3亿份炸鱼和薯条。这相当于这个国家的每个男人、女人和孩子都吃六份。）可知英国人都喜欢吃炸鱼和薯条，所以可推断在英国有很多的炸鱼和薯条店，因此E项：Therearenowaround8，500fishandchipshopsacrosstheUK.（现在在英国大约有8500家炸鱼薯条店。）符合语境，故选E。
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了英式美食炸鱼和炸薯条的诞生过程。
