the milk automatically.
the milk back to the supermarket.
the milk to the front of the shelf. √
fresh milk to replace this one.
解析：[听力原文]
A refrigerator of the future that tells you what to cook with your leftovers and automatically
re-orders fresh food is being designed in the UK. The self-cleaning
efrigerator of the future


will automatically place supermarket home delivery orders when required and move food near its


use by date to the front of the shelves. Researchers hope the fridge could clean itself, cut down


on wasted food and offer up recipes—which could be tailored to different countries, cuisine and
seasons. With Brits putting in 36 million hours every year of free overtime—leaving little time


for household chores—the refrigerator could help save precious time during modern-day lives.


These new developments are in the pipeline thanks to collaborations between scientists at the
university and online supermarket Ocado. The planned new features include the ability for

refrigerators to scan their shelves to see what is in stock and use this information to both plan


meals and automatically place a supermarket food order. The smart fridge will use



ano- articulated technology shelf surfaces which will accomplish products which soon need to
be eaten to the front of the refrigerator. Ultrasound-scanning technology built into the door


will allow the refrigerator to swipe and capture the food on a plate before and after mealtime,


meaning it can assess what type and amount of food is wasted. Cookbooks are essentially inventory


lists of food items. The key concept in the successful implementation of this process is accurate
inventory tracking.
How will a future refrigerator deal with the milk that is near its sell-by date?
事实细节题。本题问的是未来冰箱会怎样处理那些要超过保质期的牛 奶。短文开头提到，这种自洁式“未来冰箱”会自
动下订单让超市送货上门，还会把接近保质期的食物放 在架子的前面。

A.A phenomenon of aging face because of facing computer for long. √
B.A feature of screen- shape face because of people following fashion on the Internet.
C.A symptom of urkey neck because of people imitating the turkey.
D.A representation of wrinkles because of people lifting their heads for long.
解析：[听力原文]
A growing number of women are developing something called computer face, a leading cosmetic


surgeon said. Dr. Prager said professionals who worked long hours in front of a screen were ending


up with hung loose skin, urkey neck and deep-set wrinkles on their forehead and around their


eyes. The specialist said that, of all his clients, office workers were most likely to show


premature signs of ageing. If you are one of the unfortunate people who frown or squint when they
are concentrating at the screen, then over time, you will inevitably end up with frown lines.
What is perhaps more surprising is the number of women with loose jaws because they are sitting
in one position for too long. If you spend most of the time looking down then the neck muscles
shorten and go loose, eventually giving you a second neck. We are seeing a lot of women who work
in executive jobs in offices who have this problem. Dr. Prager, who has a practice near Harley


Street in London, said he encourages his clients to put a mirror next to their computer so they


can see if they are frowning at the screen. A generation of younger men and women who had grown


up with information technology were developing computer face at a much earlier age. Dr. Prager
said there were several simple steps which could avoid computer face such as regular screen breaks




and stretching the neck muscles.

What is called computer face?
推理判断题。本题问的 是什么是“电脑脸”。短文开头介绍，一些女性白领由于经常在电脑前工作，脸部肌肉出现松弛
下垂，出 现“火鸡颈”以及前额和眼睛周围皱纹增多的现象，这种现象被称为“电脑脸”。由此可知，“电脑脸”是一种< br>皮肤老化的现象。
can warn office workers not to frown at work. √
can reduce the harm of facing computer.

can make office ladies expressions lovelier.

can absorb the computers radiation.
解析：[听力原文]
What is the function of the mirror next to the computer?
推理判断题。本题问的是在电脑旁 边放一面镜子的作用。短文中提到，Prager医生建议他的客户们在电脑旁边放一面镜
子，这样他们 可以从镜子中看到自己是否皱眉了。由此可知，镜子的作用是提醒办公室人员工作时不要皱眉头。
mirrors along with them.
more money on make-up.
some body exercise during work. √
much more sports after work.
解析：[听力原文]
What should office workers do according to Dr. Prager?
行动计划题。本题问的是根据Prager医生的说法，办公室人员应该怎么做。 短文中提到，Prager医生说几个简单的措
施可以避免“电脑脸”，如定时从电脑屏幕前休息以及伸 展颈部肌肉。

and more crops are wasted by developed countries.
grain production countries limit their export of grain.
crops become raw materials for making fuel. √
countries reduce the supply and export of food.
解析：[听力原文]
Food prices are at their highest level since the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization
began keeping records in 1990. The causes include bad weather and growing demand. Some experts


also blame the use of food crops to make fuel. But higher food prices are not always the result


of limited supplies. Coffee prices have jumped almost 50 percent in six months. Prices have reached
a 13-year high. Yet growers expect their current crop to be almost ten percent bigger than the
last one. JM Smucker is an American company known for its jellies and fruit spreads. But Smucker
also owns Folgers, Americas top-selling packaged coffee. On Tuesday, Smucker said it would raise
the prices of its coffee products by an average of ten percent. It said the increase is driven
by the higher prices for coffee beans. Experts say coffee prices are rising mainly because people
are willing to pay more. Coffee sellers like Mark Warmuth say tastes are changing and more people
want a good cup of coffee. Theres no right or wrong answer with regard to Whats a good cup
of coffee? A lot of it has to do with personal preference or taste. Those bigger companies like


Starbucks have spread the idea of coffee as an affordable luxury. The thinking goes that during


hard times, people might not go on a trip but they might be willing to pay extra for good coffee.
Greater demand for high-quality coffee has helped drive coffee prices higher. People in India
drink lots of coffee. Starbucks just announced plans to enter that market in a deal with Indias


Tata Coffee Company.

Which reason is referred to for food price rising in this passage?
事实细节题。本题问的是短文中提到的食品价格上涨的原因。短文开头提到，粮 食价格上涨的原因包括恶劣的天气状况
和不断增长的需求。一些专家也认为使用粮食作物来生产燃料也是 其中一个原因。由此可知，粮食被作为制造燃料的原
材料是食品价格上涨的原因之一。
hard to say whether the coffee is good or bad.
s taste is always the same.
is a luxurious but affordable choice. √
is a must for business contact.

解析：[听力原文]
Which idea of coffee is promoted by some bigger companies like Starbucks?
事实细节题。本题问的是 关于咖啡，诸如星巴克这样的大型公司宣扬的是什么观点。短文中提到，星巴克那样较大的公
司传播了咖 啡是可以支付得起的奢侈品的观念。

解析：[听力原文]
What is Starbucks attitude to the Indian market?
观点态 度题。本题问的是星巴克对待印度市场的态度如何。短文中提到，星巴克公司已经与印度塔塔咖啡公司达成协议，
计划进军印度市场。由此可知，星巴克比较看好印度市场。
