The strength of at least three species of bamboo is similar to its strength, bamboo has other features that make it very useful in building. He says it is resilient(有彈力的), meaning it keeps its shape and strength even under pressure. Bamboo is widely used as food for panda bears. It is also used for flooring and window covers.

These measures are often undertaken by supermarkets to prevent the hungry from searching for food through the dustbins. Also, excess goods like yogurt or milk that are likely to go bad quickly are now allowed to be donated directly to the food banks. Though this has always been possible, the current process is long and plex, making it difficult for producers to give away the food in a timely manner.s food banks are of course thrilled about the possibility of receiving extra food. Jacques Bailet, who heads a network of French food banks called the Banques Alimentaires, says that of the 110,000 tons of goods received annually, only 36,000 tons es from supermarkets. Bailet estimates (估計(jì)) that just a 15% increase in supermarket donations would translate to over 10 million additional meals to feed the hungry each year. an astonishing 67% is thrown away by consumers, with supermarkets and restaurants making up the rest.（1）What should stores do with nearlyexpired food? A.Send it to the hungry.C.D.Extra.Cheap.Seasonal.Returned.（3）What might Bailet agree with about the French food banks? A.B.Their food is enough for the people in need.Their food mainly es from supermarkets.（4）What does Dermabarsh plan to do? A.B.Organize a campaign to promote this law.Raise consumers awareness of waste reduction.【答案】（1）D（2）A（3）B（4）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇新聞報(bào)道，講述了法國成為世界上第一個通過法律要求超市捐贈即將過期食品的國家。（1）考查推理判斷。故選D。根據(jù)第四段中的“Also, excess goods like yogurt or milk that are likely to go bad quickly are now allowed to be donated directly to the food banks. ”此外，像酸奶或牛奶這樣的過剩商品可能很快就會變質(zhì)，現(xiàn)在可以直接捐贈給食品銀行。（3）考查推理判斷。故選B。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Though this is a great first step, Arash Dermabarsh, the activist responsible for the grassroots movement that led to the ban, is not done. He now wants to extend the law to other places like restaurants and also try to convince other countries in the European Union to pass similar regulations.”可知，Dermabarsh計(jì)劃讓法律在更多的地方生效。【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查，是一篇新聞報(bào)道，考生需要準(zhǔn)確捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息，同時根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。 When we think of a generation gap we usually think of conflicting tastes in music, or pastimes.
