27、More schools around the USA are using online classes when communities run into troubles like wildfires, storms or water shortages.

In Jackson, Mississippi, a problem with the public water system left the city without safe water for several days. As a result, schools had to go online for one week in May. The time in online learning did not last long for the 20, 000 students in Jackson. Earlier this month, children went back to in-person learning when the city said water was safe for normal use.

However, online learning caused problems for children and teachers. At home, children attending online classes often had their whole family in the house. Early in 2020, school officials had high hopes for online learning. Since then, the problems with it have become clearer. The change to online learning has caused many students to fall behind where they should be in their studies. And it has added to new worries about students’ health.

In 2018, two powerful storms hit the same area, causing schools in some places to close. Some students were out of school for weeks. There were attempts(尝试) at online learning, but many children did not have laptop computers or other technology. For this reason, most schools tried to move students to other in-person buildings.

“Schools now will look first to online learning,” said Gary Henry. He is head of the University of Delaware and has been part of a research team studying online learning. For a period of a few weeks, he said it could be a step to keep students on schedule. But the pandemic(疫情) showed that it was not a good way over a long period of time. “It’s a difficult start,” said Henry. “It’s better to have the kids in the classroom so you can see how they are doing, and provide timely support to them.”

【1】How long did the students in Jackson attend online courses in May?

A．For two days.

B．For one week.

C．For two weeks.

D．For one month.

【2】What is the third paragraph mainly about?

A．The disadvantages of online classes.

B．Added worries about students’ health.

C．A challenge school officials must face.

D．High hopes parents have for their children.

【3】What did most schools do when two storms hit Jackson in 2018?

A．They developed an online learning system.

B．They handed out computers to every student.

C．They tried their best to have in-person class.

D．They encouraged parents to work from home.

【4】Which statement will Henry probably agree with?

A．The storms cause all the schools to close every year.

B．Many schools in Mississippi were burned in a fire.

C．Online tests are more popular among students.

D．In-person learning is better for students’ study.

28、Every people uses its own special word to show its ideas and feelings. Some of these expressions are commonly used for many years. Others are popular for just a short time. One such American expression is “Where’s the beef?” It is used when something is not as good as it is said to be. In the early 1980s “Where’s the beef?” was one of the most popular expressions in the United States. It seemed as if everyone using it at the time.

Beef, of course, is the meat from a cow, and food is more popular in America than a hamburger made from beef. In the 1960s a businessman named Ray began building small restaurants that sold hamburgers at a low price. Ray called this “McDonald’s”. Ray became one of the richest businessmen at last in America.

Other business people watched his success. Some of them opened their own hamburger restaurants. One company called “Wendy’s” said its hamburgers were bigger than those sold by McDonald’s or anyone else. The Wendy’s Company began to use the expression “Where’s the beef?” to make people know that Wendy’s hamburgers were the biggest. The Wendy’s television advertisement showed three old women eating hamburgers. The bread that covered the meat was very big, but inside there was only a bit of meat. One of the women said she would not eat a hamburger with such a little piece of beef. “Where’s the beef?” she shouted in a funny way. The advertisement for Wendy’s hamburger restaurants was a success. As we said, it seemed everyone began using the expression “Where’s the beef?”

【1】_______ started McDonald’s restaurant.

【2】Other people wanted to open hamburger restaurants because they thought _______.

【3】Wendy’s made the expression known to everybody _______.

D. at the McDonald’s restaurant

【4】We can learn from the passage that the expression “Where’s the beef?” means that _______.

A. the beef in hamburgers is not as much as it is said to be.

B. the hamburgers are not as good as they are said to be.

C. Wendy’s beef is the biggest one in American restaurant.

29、Why do Chinese people love hot pot so much? As the winter months are coming in, more and more people are sitting around a table enjoying this kind of traditional meal. I find myself wondering what it is about this traditional meal, which has existed for more than 1, 000 years. What makes it a Chinese food favorite? It seems that the answer lies beyond the dish itself.

Hot pot isn’t just designed to keep you warm during the cold months; it’s also a social experience. It’s a “theater” cooked food that turns a meal into an event. There is a lot of fun for everyone to have in adding some foods to the hot pot.

Hot pot is eaten not less than two hours. For this reason, it is often considered an evening’s entertainment, and a time to spend with friends and families. However, many Westerners would be put off by the idea of other people sticking chopsticks in their food. When we come to eat at the table in the UK, we often have our own shares, although the experience is still a social one.

A similar experience to the hot pot can be found in Korean barbecue restaurants, which let you cook your own meat. This allows people to have their meat done however they want.

For most Westerners, the idea of going to a restaurant to cook their own food is very strange. But having a go, I find it’s now one of my favorite meals in Beijing. The steam from the pot left my clothes smelling of food when I got home, but perhaps this was also part of the experience. When the cold wind is blowing outside, I am sitting around with my good friends, eating and drinking. For me it’s like a dinner party where my taste buds (味蕾) and my appetite are equally satisfied in the warm company of friends.

【1】What is the main reason why hot pot is popular in China?

A．It has a history of over 1, 000 years.

B．It is a fun social experience.

C．It serves people with many kinds of foods.

D．It keeps people very warm in winter.

【2】How long do people spend in enjoying the traditional meal?

A．More than three hours.

B．less than two hours.

C．at least two hours.

D．All the evening.

【3】We can conclude from the article that British people generally ________.

A．enjoy cooking their own food in restaurants

B．prefer a Korean barbecue to Chinese hot pot

C．don’t like sharing food with others in restaurants

D．don’t mind the smell of food staying on their clothes

【4】What is the author’s attitude to hot pot?

A．Serious.

B．Unconcerned.

C．Humorous.

D．Appreciative.
