　　Ⅱ.閱讀理解

　　A

　　[2024·遼寧五校聯(lián)考]As globalization continues to make the world a smaller place, and goods become more accessible across borders,

　　concerns about food safety in the Asia-Pacific region have

　　steadily risen over the years. An APEC forum is being held in

　　Beijing, to find ways to better address the problem.

　　156 participants from 19 APEC economies and 4 nonAPEC members attended the APEC Food Safety Cooperation

　　Forum. Created 7 years ago, the forum has been actively

　　looking for ways to strengthen food safety standard in the

　　region, without affecting trade.

　　“As consumers are faced with more varieties of food,

　　the

　　potential food safety risk also becomes bigger. This forum has

　　helped APEC economies to cooperate in supervision (監(jiān)督),

　　exchange information, and improve the overall food safety

　　standard in the Asia-Pacific region，”said director of China's

　　General Administration of Quality Supervision Wu Qinghai.

　　For the first time the forum has brought together high-level regulators, academics, and industry stakeholders to talk

　　about their respective roles in safety supervision. They say

　　governments alone cannot shoulder this heavy duty.

　　In China, the continuous food safety problems have greatly hurt consumers' confidence in domestic products; therefore more turned to imports. However, problems related to quality of those imported goods also began to show. In July this year, more than 400 batches (批) of food imports from 35 countries and regions were found substandard by the country's top quality supervisor.

　　Governments and industries have been brought closer by this forum. As food moves more freely beyond borders, this forum is hoped to promote safety control cooperation, so APEC members can better benefit from the economic integration (經(jīng)濟(jì)一體化)．

　　通過(guò)APEC論壇，各國(guó)之間將更加密切地合作，食品安全問(wèn)題將得到更有效的監(jiān)管和處理，各成員國(guó)都會(huì)從中受益。

　　1．What kind of function can the forum play?

　　A．It has greatly influenced the economy in the area.

　　B．It has long been able to put every side's efforts together.

　　C．It helps to bring government regulators and industries

　　together.

　　D．It has found ways to deal with safety problems.

　　答案：C　考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中的“the forum has brought

　　together high-level regulators,

　　academics, and industry

　　stakeholders to talk about their respective roles in safety

　　supervision”可知，應(yīng)選C項(xiàng)。

　　2．The last but one paragraph tells us that________.

　　A．the Chinese customers are more satisfied with their

　　food safety

　　B．food imported from other countries are indeed high in

　　quality

　　C．many Chinese customers would rather buy some foreign

　　food

　　D．there are only 35 countries and regions exporting food to China

　　答案：C

　　考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第五段中的“the continuous food safety problems have greatly hurt consumers' confidence in domestic products; therefore more turned to imports.

　　However, problems

　　related to quality of those imported goods also began to show”可知，連續(xù)的國(guó)內(nèi)食品安全問(wèn)題打擊了消費(fèi)者的信心，他們更加愿意買進(jìn)口產(chǎn)品，但是進(jìn)口食品的質(zhì)量問(wèn)題也開始顯現(xiàn)，即C項(xiàng)正確，A、B項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤；文中第五段的最后一句表示來(lái)自35個(gè)國(guó)家和地區(qū)的超過(guò)400批次的進(jìn)口食品不達(dá)標(biāo)而非只有35個(gè)國(guó)家和地區(qū)向中國(guó)出口食品，故D項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。

　　3．The underlined word “address” in the first paragraph can

　　be replaced by “________”．

　　A．send a letter about

　　B．deal with

　　C．deliver a speech on

　　D．call off

　　答案：B考查詞義猜測(cè)。根據(jù)全文大意可知，各國(guó)通過(guò)APEC論壇加強(qiáng)合作，積極尋求更好的方法來(lái)解決食品安全問(wèn)題。由此可推知，B項(xiàng)“處理，解決”與address含義相近。

　　4．According to the article, which of the following statements is wrong?

　　A．People can buy foreign food more easily than ever.

　　B．The more varieties of food, the bigger the potential food safety risk.

　　C．Food safety problems have appeared many times before this forum.

　　D．Governments have started their cooperation with academies and industries before this forum.

　　答案：D　考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“and goods become more accessible across borders, concerns about food safety in the Asia-Pacific region have steadily risen over the years”可知，A、C項(xiàng)表述正確；根據(jù)第三段中的“As consumers are faced with more varieties of food, the potential food safety risk also becomes bigger”可知，B項(xiàng)表述正確；D項(xiàng)與第四段的第一句不符，故選D項(xiàng)。

　　1．a(chǎn)ccessible adj. 易接近的；可進(jìn)入的

　　2．steadily adv. 平穩(wěn)地，穩(wěn)定地

　　3．potential n．/adj. 潛力；潛在的

　　4．exchange vt./n. 交換，兌換

　　5．import v．/n. 進(jìn)口，輸入

　　1．be faced with 面對(duì)，面臨

　　2．for the first time 首次；第一次

　　3．benefit from 從……中受益

　　原文：However, problems related to quality of those imported goods also began to show.(分詞作定語(yǔ))

　　譯文：然而，與那些進(jìn)口商品相關(guān)的質(zhì)量問(wèn)題逐漸顯示出來(lái)。

　　仿寫：Don't use words, expressions or phrases known_only_to_people_with_specific_knowledge.

　　不要運(yùn)用只有具有特定知識(shí)的人才知道的詞匯和表達(dá)方式。
