Restaurants in the USA

Steve’s Pizza

So many pizza chains compete for the attention of tourists in South Beach, but ask a Miami Beach local where to get the best pizza and they’ll tell you about Steve’s. This is New York–style pizza, handmade with care and good ingredients(成份). New branches of Steve’s are opening elsewhere in Miami, all in non-tourist areas.

Opening hours: 11am-3am

Cattleman’s Steakhouse

This place is 20 miles east of the city, but local folks would probably drive 200 miles to eat here. The food is good, and the scenery is even better. Come early and wander around the grounds of Indian Cliffs Ranch, where you’ll see everything from rabbits to buffalo (水牛), then catch the sunset either before or after your meal.

Opening hours: 5pm-10pm

Absolute Baking & Cafe

The screen door is always swinging open at this town hot spot with giant breakfasts. Try the green chili on eggs – it’s made from scratch, as are the organic(有機(jī)的) breads. Lunch includes salads, big sandwiches and local grass-fed beef burgers. Don’t miss a square of soft, fresh carrot cake.

Opening hours: 7am-2pm

Walt’s Wharf

Everybody’s favorite for fresh fish (some drive in from LA), Walt’s packs them in on weekends. You can’t make reservations for dinner (though they’re accepted for lunch), but it’s worth the wait for the tree fire–grilled seafood and steaks in the many-windowed ground floor or upstairs in captain’s chairs.

Opening hours: 11am-3:30pm

【解析】

試題分析：本文主要介紹了美國(guó)的幾家餐館——史蒂夫披薩、牧場(chǎng)主人的牛排、絕對(duì)的烘焙和咖啡館、沃爾特的碼頭。史蒂夫披薩是一家紐約風(fēng)格的披薩店，用很好的食材和精細(xì)的手工做的。牧場(chǎng)主人的牛排店的牛排味道很好，同時(shí)附近的風(fēng)景很美，不僅可以享受美食，還能夠看到野兔和水牛，還有日落。絕對(duì)的烘焙和咖啡館在這個(gè)城市最熱鬧的地方，提供美味的早餐和中餐，還有新鮮的胡蘿卜蛋糕。沃爾特的碼頭提供新鮮的魚，還有燒烤的海鮮和牛排。

1. Pizza部分的最后兩句New branches of Steve’s are opening elsewhere in Miami, all in non-tourist areas. 可知史蒂夫披薩店的分店開在邁阿密的任何地方，那些地方都沒有游客，所以它主要是為當(dāng)?shù)厝朔⻊?wù)的，故選B。

2. Steakhouse部分的第二句the food is good, and the scenery is even better.意思是：那兒的食物很不錯(cuò)，而景色甚至更美。所以Cattleman’s Steakhouse的景色和食物一樣美。故選A。

3. Baking & Café部分的第一句The screen door is always swinging open at this town hot spot with giant breakfasts.和第三句話Lunch includes salads, big sandwiches and local grass-fed beef burgers.可知，Absolute Baking & Café既提供早餐又提供中餐。故選D。

科目：高中英語 來源：2014-2015學(xué)年浙江杭州地區(qū)七校高三上期末英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

It’s 5pm on a Friday and I'm standing in a coffee shop above Shibuya crossing - one of the most busiest place in Japan where more than a thousand of Tokyo’s smartly dressed people gather at eight points, ready to cross - then rush straight for each other. It looks like they must bump into each other, but It’s amazing that they all manage to reach the other side safely.

But the real reason I'm here is that I want to see people crash. I want businessmen to knock into each other, their umbrellas flying off their arms, and uniformed schoolchildren hitting grannies. Why may I see this now, but wouldn't have had the chance even a year ago? It’s very simple - smartphones.

Smartphone use is booming in Japan. In 2012, only about a quarter of Japanese used them, most being perfectly happy with their everyday mobiles. But now more than half of all Japanese now own a smartphone and the number is rising fast. But with that rise has grown another phenomenon - the smartphone walk. Those people who're staring at a phone screen adopt this kind of pace- their head down, arms outreached, looking like zombies（僵尸）trying to find human prey(獵食).

Surprisingly, an American named Michael Cucek who has lived here for more than 20 years told me smartphone walk probably wouldn’t be a long-term problem. Japanese phone manner is in fact better than anywhere else in the world - hardly anyone speaks on their phones on trains, and teenagers wouldn't dare broadcast music out of one. If things got truly bad at Shibuya, the police would just start shouting at people to look up.

But really, is the smartphone walk such an annoying problem? There's only one way to find out. So I leave the coffee shop, head down to the crossing and start typing an email, promising myself I won't look up until I get to the other side. When they start walking past me, it's my time to cross. As I step forward, the experience quickly becomes nervous - legs jump in and out of my vision without warning, while shopping bags fly towards my face before being pulled away at the last moment. I'm sure I'm going to get hit, but after a few seconds I relax. It’s OK. Everyone's reacting for me.

I expect to see two smartphone walkers just like me. But instead I find a young couple, very much in love and very much refusing to let each other’s hands go just to give way to a fool on his smartphone. The girl gives me such a look of dislike that I quickly apologize and rush round them. That look was enough to ensure I'll never be smartphone walking again.

1.From paragraph 1, we can know _____________.

A. people at Shibuya crossing always bump into each other.

B. more than a thousand of people gather at Shibuya crossing every day.

C. more than a thousand of people are ready to rush in a competition every day.

D. more than a thousand of people at Shibuya crossing make it a busy one in Japan.

2.Why does the author stand in a coffee shop above Shibuya crossing?

A. Because he is waiting for somebody.

B. Because he can have a good view from there.

C. Because he wants to see what would happen because of smartphones.

D. Because it’s interesting to see businessmen’s umbrellas flying off their arms

3.How does Michael Cucek find smartphone walk in Japan?

A. He found it by accident when he lives here.

B. Japanese pay much attention to their phone manner in public.

C. The police in Shibuya are too strict with people’s phone manner.

D. Smartphone walk in Japan has a deep root.

4. How does the author confirm whether smartphone walk is annoying or not?

A. By personal experimenting

B. By comparing with other way of walk

C. By giving example.

D. By explaining the traffic rules patiently

5.After smartphone walking himself, the author thinks___________.

A. it’s exciting to walk while sending emails

B. it’s really dangerous to walk while sending emails

C. there are some others smartphone walking like him

D. other passers-by give way to him although they dislike.

I still remember the morning. My father suddenly wake me up at about 5 and the sky was still gray. I jumped out bed, surprised and extreme happy, for we were going to get a book! When we drove to the bookstore, many people were already waiting there. We waited for our turn at about 8:30. I was overjoyed when I got a book, not only because of the book themselves, but also of the love from my father. Never before had I feel such a love from him, because my father, I believed then, had always been busy with his own work. That was “Harry Potter” that helped I feel the deep loves from my parents!

I decided to go back to school in the fall of 2008 after not being happy with my current job and financial status. I obtained my Associate’s Degree in May 2002 in Commercial Arts. After graduation, I had trouble obtaining a job in that field. For years, I was going from one job to another feeling unfilled, and I was not satisfied with the instability. I decided to go back to school for either International Business or Psychology. I weighed the pros and cons of both professions and Psychology won. I like helping my friends and family, when they go through hard situations in their life by giving them sound advice and being honest with them. Also, I was interested in “the mind”. I was searching for online schools because my work schedule at my current job would not allow me t o attend a regular class. I was nervous about starting online classes because I heard mixed stories from other friends who were taking online classes. I decided to do it anyway to experience something different. I wanted to find an online school that was affordable and reputable. Through my search, I discovered Walden University, which is specially for working adults who want to obtain a bachelor’s degree or higher. The process of getting accepted was easy, which included writing an essay on why I wanted to attend their school, transferring my previous credits, etc. I am currently enrolled in the Bachelors program for psychology, and I am paying for college via financial-aid loans and grants. This experience has been interesting yet trying as sometimes it was difficult to balance work, school and home life. I learned a lot about psychology and myself. For example, I like writing about current events, relationships and traveling. I thought my English composition was ordinary, but after taking a few classes at Walden University, I improved my English composition and it made me feel confident enough to start writing professionally so I became a freelance (自由撰稿) writer. Currently, I am only three classes away from obtaining my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology! It was one of the best decisions I made in my life.

3.Why was the author nervous about starting online classes?

A. Because he heard some negative remarks about it.

B. Because h e was worried that he didn’t have enough time to study.

C. Because he feared he would fail the entrance exam.

D. Because he was afraid that he didn’t have enough money.

4.Which of the following best describes the author’s learning experience?
