Section B
Directions: Read the following four passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
Food and ideas about cooking it have been passing from one part of the world to another since the Stone Age Revolution began in the Middle East. They were part of the spread of civilization, though since people change their tastes in painting and architecture much faster than their tastes in food, knowledge of what was eaten is far less than knowledge of the houses that were lived in or the clothes that were worn. Cookery books were few before the 17th century, and how close are the general eating habits at any period to the cookery books published?
Changes owed more to the movement of people, of animals, of merchants, of rich landowners, than to books. Before canals, railways, good roads, most people ate what could be produced within a thirty-mile area. Ports did better, of course, if they were on a route. For most people food was basically regional food and there was not always enough of it either. Even in good areas, poor country people had little to eat since most of what they produced went for sale at local markets. Only rich men could buy expensive seeds to grow unusual vegetables, or employ gardeners who

understood how to grow fine fruit unfamiliar to the place they lived in, or afford cooks trained elsewhere to provide variety at mealtimes.
The undoubted advantages of present-day large-scale manufacture and organization—wonderful cleanliness, quick distribution, prices that allow far more people than. ever in the past to satisfy their hunger— have not so far come to us together with an excellent quality of flavor. Moreover, in a world where possibilities are endless, business seems to to limit choice beyond a certain level. Of the 300 varieties of pears that listed by one French 17th-century gardener-even though he had to admit that only 30 of them were really worth eating—only about half a are now produced in Europe.
33. Why do we know so little about the food people ate in the past? A.Eating habits used to change very quickly.
B.There were no cookery books before the 19th century. C.People did not change their tastes in food fast, D.There are very few paintings of food.
84. Changes in eating habits were caused by A.shortages of basic food B.the movement of population C.developments in agriculture D. the recipes of foreign cooks
85. What is the problem with our food today? A. It's too expensive for many people. B. It's manufactured too quickly. C. It doesn't taste as it used to.
D. It's exported in very large quantities.
86. What point is the author making in the example about the pear in the last paragraph?
A.There is not as much variety now as before.
B.There was more variety in the past but quality was not as high. C. Most pears that were produced were not fit to eat. D. There is more variety outside Europe than in Europe.
(B)
Ever had a time in your life where cash hasn't been as plentiful as you'd like and you've needed to tighten the budget? We all have,
According to the World Bank, global food prices, driven in part by higher fuel costs, are 36% above their level a year ago. Food and drink are among our biggest ongoing expenses, which means it's also one of the biggest opportunities for savings.
There are changes of the way you buy and prepare food that can make a big impact on your bank account. Making significant savings on your grocery bill isn't as hard as you might think, and you can still live well. Here is how. COOK FROM THE BEGINNING
In general, the more preparation or processing steps a food hag undergone, the
第 7 页 / 共 14 页
higher the price. So it's best to cook things from the very beginning where possible. Even small changa can make a big cost difference. Try buying unwashed whole lettuce or salad leaves and giving them a cleaning yourself, The per-ki10?am price can be as much as ten times more for prepackaged salad leaves. STEWNG MEAT
Supply and demand play a big role in food pricing. Food that isn't fashionable can be excellent value for money. Unfortunately, lamb chops are not as inexpensive as they once were—but there are still plenty of other options. Look for oxtail, chicken wing tip' and feet, or ? other organs such as livers and lungs. A quick internet search will give you a host of ideas on how to prepare unfamiliar ingredients. A good place to start is with slow cooked casseroles or stews, BUY IN BULK
A good rule, based on experience, is that is cheaper\always better value. It does pay to compare the price to make sure you really are saving-a—if you can, check the ''unit pricing\—pates prices by volume and weight. And make sure you'll not end up throwing half of it out than using it by the expiry date.
TAKE A LIST
Planning ahead is great way to economize and reduce the risk of expensive impulse purchases, so make a list of what you need before you head to the supermarket. It's also a good idea not to shop while you are hungry to resist the urge to pick up unnecessary food items, IGNORE THE LIST
Give yourself the flexibility to make the most of the supermarket specials and discounts, and to use different ingredients or change your weekly recipe plans depending on what's on sale or the best value for money on the day. 87. It can be learned from the passage that A. there may be less opportunity for you to save money when food prices are increasing greatly.

D.changing your weekly recipe plans will help you stay healthy. 88. \
