    Too Good To Go, an app operating in the UK, allows users to order leftover food at a discount from restaurants, according to the website. The goal is to help cut food waste.

    Users simply log in, pick a restaurant, pay through the app and then pick up their food at a set time—usually around closing or after peak meal times. Orders through the app cost between 2 British pounds ($2.60) to 3.80 British pounds (about $5). Users aren’t able to pick the food items, but they get an idea of the type of food that will be available, according to Business Green.

    Users also have the option to give meals to people in need by donating 1 British pound or more through the app. More than l, l00 meals have been donated so far.

    To ensure the entire experience is super eco-friendly. Too Good To Go provides recyclable takeout packaging to participating restaurants.

    Restaurants using the app make extra money by selling food what would otherwise have been throw away. And Too Good To Go itself makes money by taking a fee from participating restaurants on each sale.

    Founded in Denmark last year. Too Good To Go launched this year in the UK and is expanding to other countries. The app is available in Brighton, Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds, and will be in London later this month.

    “Food waste just seems like one of the dumbest(愚蠢) problems we have in this world,” co-founder James Crummie told Business Green. “The restaurant industry is wasting about 600,000 tonnes of food each year, and in the UK alone there are one million people on emergency food parcels from food banks. Why do we have these two massive social issues that are completely connected, yet there is not much going on to address them?”

    Too Good To Go has already helped cut a significant amount of waste. So far, the app has saved 600 meals from landfills in the UK, reports Business Green.

    1.Why is the app introduced into UK according to the passage?

    A. To help users find proper restaurants.

    B. To reduce food waste in UK.

    C. To help people in need of food.

    D. To make orders of food much cheaper.

    2.Which of the following statements are TRUE according to the passage?

    A. The app has made some progress in saving food.

    B. The app has been used throughout UK by now.

    C. You can make money if you are a customer.

    D. The restaurants provide recyclable takeout packaging.

    3.From what James Crummie said we know that ________.

    A. it’s stupid for the restaurant industry to waste so much food

    B. food bank should provide more food to people in need

    C. people don't pay much attention to food problems

    D. it’s stupid trying to solve food problems by using the app

    4.What’s the main idea of the passage?

    A. How to use the app.

    B. Who benefit from the app.

    C. Food waste is the biggest problem.

    D. Using an app can reduce food waste.

    3．（39）A

    4、Show students just how easy it is．
    （40）Deven if full training isn't in the immediate future for you or your students．Every minute that goes by without CPR，a person's chances of survival drop by 10percent，so every little bit of action helps．

    A．Bring in the experts．
    B．Train as many students as possible
    C．Bystanders are given some simple suggestions．
    D．You can still take a moment to show them the basics．

    It is always a painful process for college students to find jobs．（66）D However，job positions are quite limited．In order to get a job，the candidates should be more competitive than ever before．
    A Chinese expert predicted that the job hunting pressure in China，with a rocketing increase in the active labor force，would reach its climax in 2006，Yet，this situation continues in 2010．In order to transfer the human resources that are more than needed or wanted to the less developed areas in China，the government has tried to Launch a series of policies to help release the pressure． （67）E．
    （68）F A higher education may be more helpful to find a good job in the future，while the temptation of an exciting job and the strong will of being a"real"adult urge the youth to step into socially early．For example，when an undergraduate mechanical science and technology major at a famous university is preparing for his postgraduate exam，he receives an offer from a  big foreign company one day （69）A Anyway，it is really tough to prepare for the postgraduate examination．
    （70）C This is a tough time and everyone should have some shining points to win the employers'favor．As products of universities，college students are expected to be first-rate talents and should step into the excellent group in the society． However，these students may achieve unexpected success in the fields where their professional knowledge functions to its maximization．

    A．Most probably，he is so excited that he decides to quit the exam next year．
    B．Almost everyone worries about the result of the postgraduate examination．
    C．"Survival of the fittest．"Darwin's evolution theory appears in the personnel market．
    D．With many colleges enlarged in recent years，large numbers of graduates need to hunt jobs．

    F．To go on with further education or to find a job is one of the hardest decisions for the graduate students to make now．
    G．Competition for a job would be fierce as graduates this year will have to join the job hunting group from previous years．

    Cheating can happen in a lot of different ways. When people cheat, it’s not fair to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who were the true winners of a game.

    Many people like the action of cheating. It makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. But it doesn’t solve the problem of not knowing the material and it won’t help on the next test --- unless the person cheats again.

    Some people lose respect for cheaters and think less of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning that good grade. And, if they get caught cheating, they will be in trouble at school, and maybe at home, too.

    Some kids cheat because they’re busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending the time studying. Other kids might feel like they can’t pass the test without cheating. Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.

    If you were sick or upset about something the night before and couldn’t study, it would be better to talk with the teacher about this. And if you don’t have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with your parents about how to balance swimming and school.

    A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some solutions together. Talking about these problems and working them out will feel better than cheating.

    1.Some students like cheating mainly because_________.

    A. the material in the test is very difficult

    B. they want to do better than the others

    C. cheating can make hard things seem very easy

    D. they have little time to study their lessons

    2.The fourth paragraph mainly tells us______.

    A. cheating isn’t a good idea

    B. why kids cheat in the test

    C. some kids can’t pass the test without cheating

    D. some kids don’t spend the time studying

    3.We can learn from the passage______.

    A. cheaters are often thought highly of

    B. people show no respect for those who cheat

    C. parents whose kids cheat are often in trouble

    D. kids cheat in the test because of swim practice

    4.In the passage those cheaters are advised to_______.

    A. spend more time on school than on sports
