(2024·广东卷,C)Like many new graduates,I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do.My degree,with honors,in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical.I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow,but I had no idea how to do that.That's when I learned about the
Lighthouse Project.
I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers.I knew it would be a lot of hard work,and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time.In short,I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly.Neither did my family.
Eventually,however,I won the support of my family,and I sent in all the paperwork needed for application.After countless interviews and presentations,I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone.Several months later,I finally received a call asking me to report for duty.I would be going to a small village near Abuja,Nigeria.Where?What?Nigeria?I had no idea.But I was about to find out.
After completing my training,I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation.Though the local villagers were poor,they offered their homes,hearts,and food as if I were their own family.I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse.For the next year or so,I taught in that same schoolhouse.But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me.
Sometime during that period,I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did,though I did not get anywhere with the local language,and I returned to the United States a different man.The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever.

体裁:说明文 话题:经历感受 时间:7分钟
(2024·湖北卷)You've flown halfway around the world;you've sniffed out this place that nobody in Falongland or Thailand seems to have ever heard of;so what on earth is there to do here?You consider this question as you sink into an old wooden beach chair that holds you above the sand.
It was a long journey from Bangkok to Huaplee.By the time you found the bus station and got yourself sorted out,it took almost as long as the flight from Falongland.
Huaplee is located just south of Hua Hin,about two hundred kilometres from Bangkok,down the west side of the Gulf of Thailand.Not many tourists find this place,and the ones that do wonder if finding it has been their purpose all along.
There's an apparent laziness that surrounds you here.It's what this place offers,and it's free of charge.The small waves that tap the shoreline seem to slow everything down.You settle into your beach chair in preparation for a long rest.You sit there and watch the sea.
It's early afternoon,so the cook comes out and asks what you'd like to eat this evening.Before long he's rushed off to the market to buy the ingredients for whatever it was that you ordered-every meal fresh and to order.No menu here.
There is no poolside noise here but just that wonderfully warm,clear blue sea.There's no street noise.The only sounds are the murmurs of nature.
For now you just count your blessings (福祉),listing them in the sand with your toe (脚趾).You don't have to worry about being late for work.You don't have to do anything.
The beach to your right stretches off to the horizon (地平线),slowly narrowing to nothingness only to reemerge again on your left,now steadily widening until it covers the chair beneath you.Sand to your left and sand to your right;it's unbroken,endless.No start,no end,just sand,sun,and peace.Step off it,and you reenter the world of traffic,stress,work,and hurry.
Normally you're the type who can't sit still for more than ten minutes,but you're on Huaplee Lazy Beach now and,in the right frame of mind,it stretches all the way around the world.
“How could it take me so long to find it?”you wonder.
【语篇导读】 文章了描述 Huaplee Beach的大体位置、饮食和在这里度过的美好时光。

A.he found it unworthwhile
B.he failed to sort himself out

解析 推理判断题。根据文章第二段It was a long journey...it took almost as long as the flight from Falongland,第三段第二句Not many tourists find this place.可知这个地方不好找,作者找到这个地方耗时很长,因此答案为D。
答案 D
2.What is special about the food service at Huaplee Beach?

解析 细节理解题。第五段文章涉及饮食,根据该段最后一句No menu here 可知答案为A。

3.In the author's opinion,a tourist can enjoy Huaplee Beach most when he ________.
A.sits in a beach chair

答案 B

体裁:议论文 话题:节约粮食 时间:7分钟
(2024·湖北黄岗市模拟)All of us should keep a kitchen diary,showing how much food are left uneaten as garbage.
We all waste food,you and me,millions of tons of it.In China,enough food is wasted in restaurants every year to feed 200 million people.In the United States,40 percent of food is wasted from farm to fork.Each year,the amount of food thrown away in rich countries is almost the same as that produced in subSaharan Africa.This raises some important questions.
In developing countries,food is lost because farmers do not have appropriate cooling,storage or market access for their crops.Their grains,fruits and vegetables dry up and rot away.In developed countries,the picture is different,and food is wasted in supermarkets,restaurants and at home.China faces both problems,significant losses in farms,as well as at the sale and consumption stages.And the amount of food wasted by Chinese consumers is rapidly increasing.
Consumer culture has filled China and urban residents can get quality food from anywhere in the country and from across the planet.Chinese consumers are as particular about their food as those in other countries.In supermarkets,they refuse to buy vegetables that don't look fresh or have an irregular shape,or milk and other products close to their expiry(失效)date.
Besides,Chinese consumers tend to be generous.In restaurants or at home,often too much food is ordered or cooked and served.So while trooping out of a restaurant,full and happy,with
colleagues or friends,they never look back at what's left untouched on the table.Should Chinese consumers take more responsibility for the waste they create?
Everyone deserves to have enough food to eat.Despite China's impressive success in reducing hunger over the past three decades,the job is not completed yet.

(2024·嘉兴二模)One day,Mr.Arnold was teaching a lesson,and things were going as normally as ever.He was explaining the story of mankind to his pupils.He told them that,in the beginning,men were nomads;they never stayed in the same place for very long.Instead,they would travel about,here and there,in search of food,wherever it was to be found.And when the food ran out,they would move off somewhere else.
He taught them about the invention of farming and keeping animals.This was an important discovery,because by learning to cultivate(耕作)the land,and care for animals,mankind would always have food steadily available.It also meant that people could remain living in one place,and this made it easier to set about tasks that would take a long while to complete,like building towns,cities,and all that were in them.All the children listening were attracted by this story,until Lucy jumped up:
