　　D．eye

　　Ⅱ.阅读理解

　　[2024·辽宁五校联考]As globalization continues to make the world a smaller place, and goods become more accessible across borders,

　　concerns about food safety in the Asia-Pacific region have

　　steadily risen over the years. An APEC forum is being held in

　　Beijing, to find ways to better address the problem.

　　156 participants from 19 APEC economies and 4 nonAPEC members attended the APEC Food Safety Cooperation

　　Forum. Created 7 years ago, the forum has been actively

　　looking for ways to strengthen food safety standard in the

　　region, without affecting trade.

　　“As consumers are faced with more varieties of food,

　　the

　　potential food safety risk also becomes bigger. This forum has

　　helped APEC economies to cooperate in supervision (监督),

　　exchange information, and improve the overall food safety

　　standard in the Asia-Pacific region，”said director of China's

　　General Administration of Quality Supervision Wu Qinghai.

　　For the first time the forum has brought together high-level regulators, academics, and industry stakeholders to talk

　　about their respective roles in safety supervision. They say

　　governments alone cannot shoulder this heavy duty.

　　In China, the continuous food safety problems have greatly hurt consumers' confidence in domestic products; therefore more turned to imports. However, problems related to quality of those imported goods also began to show. In July this year, more than 400 batches (批) of food imports from 35 countries and regions were found substandard by the country's top quality supervisor.

　　Governments and industries have been brought closer by this forum. As food moves more freely beyond borders, this forum is hoped to promote safety control cooperation, so APEC members can better benefit from the economic integration (经济一体化)．

　　通过APEC论坛，各国之间将更加密切地合作，食品安全问题将得到更有效的监管和处理，各成员国都会从中受益。

　　1．What kind of function can the forum play?

　　A．It has greatly influenced the economy in the area.

　　B．It has long been able to put every side's efforts together.

　　C．It helps to bring government regulators and industries

　　together.

　　D．It has found ways to deal with safety problems.

　　答案：C　考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“the forum has brought

　　together high-level regulators,

　　academics, and industry

　　stakeholders to talk about their respective roles in safety

　　supervision”可知，应选C项。

　　2．The last but one paragraph tells us that________.

　　A．the Chinese customers are more satisfied with their

　　food safety

　　B．food imported from other countries are indeed high in

　　quality

　　C．many Chinese customers would rather buy some foreign

　　food

　　D．there are only 35 countries and regions exporting food to China

　　答案：C

　　考查细节理解。根据第五段中的“the continuous food safety problems have greatly hurt consumers' confidence in domestic products; therefore more turned to imports.

　　However, problems

　　related to quality of those imported goods also began to show”可知，连续的国内食品安全问题打击了消费者的信心，他们更加愿意买进口产品，但是进口食品的质量问题也开始显现，即C项正确，A、B项错误；文中第五段的最后一句表示来自35个国家和地区的超过400批次的进口食品不达标而非只有35个国家和地区向中国出口食品，故D项错误。

　　3．The underlined word “address” in the first paragraph can

　　be replaced by “________”．

　　A．send a letter about

　　B．deal with

　　C．deliver a speech on

　　D．call off

　　答案：B考查词义猜测。根据全文大意可知，各国通过APEC论坛加强合作，积极寻求更好的方法来解决食品安全问题。由此可推知，B项“处理，解决”与address含义相近。

　　4．According to the article, which of the following statements is wrong?

　　A．People can buy foreign food more easily than ever.

　　B．The more varieties of food, the bigger the potential food safety risk.

　　C．Food safety problems have appeared many times before this forum.

　　D．Governments have started their cooperation with academies and industries before this forum.

　　答案：D　考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“and goods become more accessible across borders, concerns about food safety in the Asia-Pacific region have steadily risen over the years”可知，A、C项表述正确；根据第三段中的“As consumers are faced with more varieties of food, the potential food safety risk also becomes bigger”可知，B项表述正确；D项与第四段的第一句不符，故选D项。

　　1．accessible adj. 易接近的；可进入的

　　2．steadily adv. 平稳地，稳定地

　　3．potential n．/adj. 潜力；潜在的

　　4．exchange vt./n. 交换，兑换

　　5．import v．/n. 进口，输入

　　1．be faced with 面对，面临

　　2．for the first time 首次；第一次

　　3．benefit from 从……中受益

　　原文：However, problems related to quality of those imported goods also began to show.(分词作定语)

　　译文：然而，与那些进口商品相关的质量问题逐渐显示出来。

　　仿写：Don't use words, expressions or phrases known_only_to_people_with_specific_knowledge.

　　不要运用只有具有特定知识的人才知道的词汇和表达方式。
