AHome 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 (berenjakbazaarcom)“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 (gujaratirasoi.co.uk)“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 (lylesprovisions.com)“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 (santoremedio.co.uk)“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.”1What can be found in all the introductions to home delivery meal kits?A. Small gifts.B. Cooking instructions.C. Nice discounts.D.

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 (读书分享会). 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 Distinctionby Jessica Dotta. It’s the second book in the Price of Privilegetrilogy. 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 Queenseries, King’s Cageby 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 Twitter! I love chatting about books!

Canes (手杖) for navigation have been used for centuries by some visually impaired and blind people. By the early 20th century the white cane – the white is meant to make the cane most easilynoticeableto others – becamea visualassistance. But they’re not a perfect solution to detectingobstacles(障碍物) while walking, even after theextensivetraining needed to use them.
Engineers at Stanford University have attempted to improve the standard white cane. Their design, simply named the Augmented Cane, which is described in a new study published in Science Robotics, has two major differences from a typical white cane. Near the top, there’s a device filled with various sensors, including a camera, that collect information about the environment around the person, including GPS and LIDAR data. At the foot of the cane, there’s an omnidirectional (全方向的) wheel that comes with settings to adjust for a person’s walking speed and touch feedback to remind the user to steer left or right as needed. In theory, the device should pick up on potential obstacles ahead and assist in navigating unfamiliar places.
To test out their cane, Patrick Slade, a PhD student in robotics at Stanford, and his team had visually impaired and sighted people (24 in total) complete a series of navigation challenges in both outdoor and indoor environments. Sighted people were novicesat using a cane, while those visually impaired had at least a few years of experience; all of them were blindfolded before -hand.
“Ourexperimentalfindings showed that across a range of indoor and outdoortaskspeople with impairedvisionchose to walk faster when using the Augmented Cane compared to a standard cane. This means our device provides some mobility benefits,” Slade said. “In addition, we did some experiments to show our device could provide assistance that a normal cane could not, for example,routingto aspecificroom or object in an indoorsettinglike going to a coffee shop in a mall.”
8. Why do the researchers develop the Augmented Cane?A. To replace the white cane.B. To achieve obstacle detection.C. To meet the needs for training.D. To make the cane more noticeable.9. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The usage of the Augmented Cane.B. The feature of the Augmented Cane.C. The production of the Augmented Cane.D. The performance of the Augmented Cane.10. What does the underlined word “novices” mean in paragraph 3?A. Beginners.B. Experts.C. Followers.D. Amateurs.11. What can we know about the Augmented Cane according to Patrick Slade?A. It finishes various tasks faster.B. It assists more visually impaired users.C. It offers more reliable navigation.D. It helps blind people better enjoy coffee.

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 (疫苗接种). 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 (蜂王浆) 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 (荧光染料) to make them easy to track. And, the result showed that pathogens (病原体) 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.
12. In which section of a newspaper can we find this text?A. Science.B. Education.C. Geography.D. Medicine.13. What does Dr. Harwood in paragraph 2 put forward?A. An assumption.B. A suggestion.C. A theory.D. A fact.14. 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.15. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?A. Nurse Bees Invent VaccinationB. Queen Bees Vaccinate Their EggsC. Honeybees Popularize VaccinationD. Honeybees Run Vaccination Programme

That way we can have them to eat when they are ready,” said Nana.“How long does that take?” asked Michael.

Why would you do all that work and then have to wait so long?” asked Amy. “You should just go to the store and buy them.”“Patience, my sweeties! Don’t you know food always tastes best when you grow it yourself?” replied Nana. “And if all of you come to help, it won’t be too much work.”“I’ll help you, Nana,” offered Justin.

It is my honor to deliver my speech titled My School and Me. Great changes have taken place in both my school and me. When I stepped into the campus, classes were only held indoors, while nowadays students are provided with practical lessons in workshops and labs. Besides, multi-media facilities have been introduced, thus enabling us to study more efficiently. As to me, I have become much more open-minded and confident, especially when giving presentations. I am no longer what I was three years ago.Here, I’d like to convey my sincere gratitude and best wishes to our school. May our school a bright prosperity.Thank you for your listening!第二节（满分25分）Possible version1 :Whenever the grandchildren came to visit, they would dash into the garden. Not surprisingly, they were going to see how the garden was growing. After watering the vegetables, they would remove the weeds that popped up around the plants and apply organic fertilizer under Nana's instruction if necessary. As time went by, the plants were growing taller and stronger. When they noticed the vegetables flowering and producing fruits, their eyes were sparkling like diamonds. Never had they looked forward to summer like this before. But they clearly knew that it's worthwhile to wait for the inviting results.Finally, Nana said it was time for the first harvest. Hearing that, the children all jumped into the air and cheers filled the whole garden. Nana gave them each baskets and, together they gathered some of the cucumbers, carrots and tomatoes, which were turned into delicacies. “Who wants to help eat this fresh salad?”Nana asked. “Me!”everyone responded loudly. Tasting the salad, they thought nothing could be more delicious, because it was they who grew these vegetables. They all learned that many hands make light work and patience really pays off.Possible version 2 :Whenever the grandchildren came to visit, they would dash into the garden. Eager to help grow the vegetables well, they first took turns to water the plants. Then Nana showed them which plants needed trimming or which needed tying up to grow tall and straight. Day after day, spring turned into summer and finally, the plants started revealing their colorful secrets. The children were thrilled to see the tomatoes turning red, the cucumbers hiding under the green leaves and the peppers growing bigger. Not until then did they realize that Nana was right-- all they needed was patience.Finally, Nana said it was time for the first harvest. With baskets ready, Nana and the children started out on their business. Nana took them around the garden and picked some tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers and cabbages. Then for the following hour, they were busying making vegetable salad. The children helped wash the dirt off the food while Nana chopped up the vegetables. When Nana asked who wanted to try the fresh salad, everyone expressed their willingness excitedly. “OK. Amy, get the plates. Justin, get the water and cups, and Michael, get the forks. Let's celebrate the harvest!”
