1．Home delivery meal kits have been one of the bits of the pandemic：they have enabled diners to carry on getting a taste of restaurant-quality food，while helping restaurants to stay in business，and even make you an excellent chef.Here are four of the best offering delivery in our region：
Berenjak
"The kabab kits from this London-based Iranian restaurant — which range in price from ￡25 to ￡45 — are a 'class act'，" says Jay Rayner in The Observer. "My kit even included a pair of plastic gloves for me to wear while dealing with the raw meat.This is the best kind of meal kit — the cooking is fun，and the finished product is utterly delicious."
Gujarati Rasoi
"I love this vegetarian restaurant，" says Marina O'Loughlin in The Sunday Times. "And its meal boxes are 'electrifyingly good' too.Family boxes for four cost ￡65，and I especially love the starter （￡15.50）.The dishes were complicated，yet quite easy to cook."
Lyle's
"This Michelin-starred London restaurant delivers its 'exquisitely delicious' menu boxes each Friday，" says Xanthe Clay in The Daily Telegraph. "At ￡140 for two，they aren't cheap，and with multiple courses，they do take a bit of work and concentration to cook."
Santo Remedio
"Order a Remedy kit from Santo Remedio and what you will get is an incredibly generous，sharing-style Mexican feast for two，" says Anna Lawson on BBC's "Good Food". "The kits come with a choice of slow-cooked meat，accompanied by all the ingredients to make your own pancake.Preparation is simple，thanks to a colour-coded instruction."

2．In the last three years，I have read approximately 150 books.Reading almost every day in the last three years has increased my reading comprehension.It has also improved my own writing skills.This has boosted my confidence and encouraged me to start writing more often.I am now writing a fiction book.I write and edit for Odyssey，and I am an officer for the SNHU Book Club.This has also helped me become a better student.I'm able to read and comprehend the text more for each class，and do well on the assignments because of my better writing skills.I truly love it，and can't imagine where I would be right now if I hadn't become a bookworm.
Because I read so much，I have decided to start doing a written version of a book haul.In short，a book haul is a review of the books read each month.They are typically done as a video，but until I have the proper equipment to do that，I will be writing mine.At the end of each month I will discuss the books I read，the books I bought，or received，and then ask for your thoughts and suggestions.
January was a busy month for me.I only finished one book，Mark of Distinction by Jessica Dotta.It's the second book in the Price of Privilege trilogy.I bought Carve the Mark，Veronica Roth's new book，and An Unquiet Mind，a psychology based book by Kay Redfield Jamison.I plan on reading these in February，as well as the third section of the Red Queen series，King's Cage by Victoria Aveyard，which will be released on February 7.I am so excited for it!
If you've read any of the books I ever mention，feel free to reach out either on here，or my social media account!I love chatting about books!

3．An old saw has it that there is nothing new under the sun.But it may still come as a surprise that human beings aren't alone in having invented vaccination （疫苗接種）.Work published by Gyan Harwood of the University of Illinois confirms that honeybees got there first.It also suggests they run the vaccination programmes like humans.
One discovery in 2015 is that queen bees vaccinate their eggs by transferring into them antigens （抗原） which start the development of a protective immune response.But that observation raises the question of how the queen receives her antigen supply in the first place，for she lives only on royal jelly （蜂王漿） produced by worker bees who act as nurses to baby bees.Dr.Harwood therefore wondered if the nurses obtain the antigens while eating nectar （花蜜） .
To test this idea，he cooperated with Heli Salmela.Together，they collected about 150 nurse bees and divided them among six queenless hives （蜂巢） with baby bees to look after.Instead of nectar，they fed the nurses on sugar-water，and for three of the hives they mixed the sugar-water with a bacterium that causes a hive-killing disease.
In this case，to stop such an infection happening，Dr Harwood and Dr Salmela heat-treated the bacteria to kill them in advance.They also labeled the dead bacteria with a fluorescent dye （熒光染料） to make them easy to track.And，the result showed that pathogens （病原體） were getting into royal jelly produced by those nurse bees.
All told that nurse bees are indeed，through their royal jelly，passing antigens on to the queen，and then to the eggs.Meanwhile，after they hatch，the eggs receive antigens from the nurses as well，thus being vaccinated twice.
（1）In which section of a newspaper can we find this text？
A．Science.
B．Education.
C．Geography.
D．Medicine.
（2）What does Dr.Harwood in paragraph 2 put forward？
A．An assumption.
B．A suggestion.
C．A theory.
D．A fact.
（3）Why were the nurse bees fed on sugar-water instead of nectar？
A．To stop infections happening.
B．To find out the antigen supply.
C．To produce bacteria.
D．To offer another food choice.
（4）Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text？
A．Nurse Bees Invent Vaccination
B．Queen Bees Vaccinate Their Eggs
C．Honeybees Popularize Vaccination
D．Honeybees Run Vaccination Programme組卷：3引用：2難度：0.5

9．I am a proud mother of three children，my last little one being delivered in the middle of this pandemic.She was born in August and her name is Aida.
Shortly after having Aida，my mother-in-law Ann showed me something she learned from her friend's mother in an art class she attended weekly.She had showed me how to knit（編織）a scarf.She showed me stitches（針） and gave me her half done project.
I spent a lot of time breastfeeding my sweet little girl，so I had some extra time to do something with my hands throughout the day.I enjoyed making the scarf so I purchased tons of yarn （線）since it was winter.I wanted to make scarves for my three children as Christmas gifts.
There was a new family that moved in down the street.The only daughter of the family was Jane，a shy girl，aged 14，the same age of my oldest son David.It seemed that she came from a financially disadvantaged family，for she always wore old clothes.Worse still，in such cold days，she had no more clothes to wear and trembled with cold.
Due to the pandemic，society was thrown into crisis mode.Schools were closed，food supplies and deliveries were suspended and children were stuck at home.In such discouraging times，however，they became good companions，walking and playing at home or around the houses.
It was dreadfully cold this winter.Every time David came back from outside，with red face，he always cried， "Mum，it is freezing outside!" Then，he came over to see whether I finished the scarf.I could tell how impatient he was to wear my scarf sooner!I had to speed the project to satisfy his expectation.But David comforted me saying he could wait a few days.What a kind and considerate boy he was!
注意：
1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為 150 左右；
2.請(qǐng)按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
Finally，my great art project was accomplished on the morning ahead of the New Year._________
Later that day David came back saying Jane also deserved a scarf._________組卷：2引用：1難度：0.5
