12、ike to window shop-browsing for things to buy, only to purchase them online at a discount-the fact is that, overall, shoppers are making fewer visits to high streets.

According to statistics from Technomic, 86% of consumers are using off-premi
18、se (营业场所外的) channels at least once a month, and a third of consumers are using it more than they did a year ago.Most restaurant companies are chasing these trends to keep up with quickly changing consumer demands. Fazolis has spent the past two years investing in its drive-through, takeaway, and del
19、ivery business, and has launched a new app aimed at making takeaway orders easier. These efforts have paid off so far off-premise sales are up 18.5% over the last year, said Jennifer Crawford, director of off-premise sales at Fazolis.But, she notes that sales are not the only benefit. “The off-premi
20、se channel is a great opportunity to connect with a new consumer group,” Crawford said. “Many of our off-premise guests have not dined in a Fazolis or experienced our menu. With options like third-party delivery and online ordering, we are able to tap into potential new guests.”Sales growth and new
21、customer potential are great rewards, to be sure. But that doesnt mean carrying out off-premise channels comes without challenges. A big one is the lack of control and maintaining the guest relationship. “When a guest dines in, we can provide a level of service that improves the consumer dining expe
22、rience. The lack of control can extend into the digital experience because sometimes orders are not processed properly in the third-party software due to the drop-down (下拉式的) menus and default (默认) orders.” she said. “Besides, it is difficult to manage during peak hours and maintaining food quality
23、and integrity (完整) during delivery is also tricky with certain dishes.”Nevertheless, Crawford believes the juice is well worth the squeeze. “Across the industry, dine-in traffic continues to decline or remain flat. If brands are not promoting sales through takeaway and delivery, they are missing out

DFire ants tunnels get dug efficiently by only a small percentage of the group doing most of the work, thus avoiding pileups in tight spaces. What about the freeloaders? They just sit around while th
28、eir hard-working colleagues get things done. But might freeloaders actually be necessary for society to function efficiently? The answer could be yesat least when it comes to fire ants and their efforts to dig nests underground. Fire ants are highly social creatures. So, Goldman, a physicist at Geor
29、gia Tech, and his colleagues wanted to know how individual ants knew what to do without a central leader issuing orders. To find out, Goldmans team labeled individual fire ants with paint and then watched them dig their narrow tunnelsbarely wide enough for two workers. It turned out that just 30 per
30、cent of the ants did 70 percent of the labor. I was surprised that we ended up with so few workers actually doing the work at any one time. A quarter of the ants never even entered the tunnels. Others moved inside, but left without digging a single grain of dirt. These behaviors ensured the crowded
31、tunnels did not get blocked with insect traffic, which would put the construction process to a stop. And when the scientists removed the five hardest-working ants from the site, others immediately jumped in to take up their positions-with no reduction in the groups productivity. It seems that it doe
32、snt matter which ants are working or freeloading at a given time, as long as there is some division of labor to keep the tunnels flowing smoothly. The findings appeared in the journal Science. The study could have implications for robotics. Imagine groups of robots sent to search the ruins for disas

Such robot groups will need to avoid getting jammed up in tight spaces.32Why are only a few ants needed to do the digging work?ATo give full play to the able.BTo take care of the old ones.
34、CTo improve their work efficiency.DTo free some ants to do other work.33How did Goldman carry out the research?ABy direct observation.BBy classification.CBy citing previous data.DBy handing out questionnaires.34What does Goldmans research indicate?AIndividuals matter in work.BMany hands make light w

37、irrigating the soil.36Ivy is a group of evergreen climbing plants, whose power to live is hard to beat. Firstly, it can live in almost any surroundings, whether in shade or full sun.37It grows well in both dry and damp soil. Moreover, it doesnt need supports as it grows aerial roots that can be atta
38、ched to most things. For these reasons, ivy can be widely grown to beautify an ugly wall or a fence.38It is a heaven for bees and butterflies in summer and its berries are a valuable food source for birds in winter. However, there are some concerns about growing ivy. Ivy has a reputation for damagin
39、g buildings, but according to the UKs Royal Horticultural Society, this doesnt usually happen unless the walls already have cracks.39But Blanusa at the University of Reading, UK, who has examined the effects of plant climbers, finds that ivy raises humidity next to the wall by only a small amount. 4
40、0Once ivy has been in the ground for a few years, it can grow out of control. Just dont let it get the better of you.AGrowing ivy can bring added benefits.BTherefore, I strongly oppose growing ivy.CThe other fear is that it can make walls damp.DBesides, it can be tolerant of various kinds of soil.E.

60、 chains could be found.(对于英国购物狂来说,过去应该去的地方是“high street”。这个位置指的是城镇中心的街道,在那里可以找到商业和流行的零售连锁店的分支机构)”可知,“high street”是指有许多商业的城镇的主要街道。故选D。25词义猜测题。根据画线词后文“News about shops losing money and shutting is now common. Some city-centre department stores have closed and even long-established retailers such as Ma
61、rks and Spencer have reported profit slumps.(商店亏损关门的新闻现在很普遍。市中心的一些百货商店已经关闭,甚至像玛莎百货这样历史悠久的零售商也宣布利润下滑)”可知画线部分所在句意思为:我们购物习惯的改变已经对英国的商业街造成了不好的影响。画线词意思为“造成不好的影响”。故选A。26细节理解题。根据第四段“But the biggest threat has come from online shopping.

71、 the work, thus avoiding pileups in tight spaces. What about the freeloaders? They just sit around while their hard-working colleagues get things done.(火蚁只需要一小部分蚂蚁来完成大部分工作,就能有效地挖掘隧道,从而避免在狭小的空间里发生拥挤。那些不作为的蚂蚁怎么办?他们只是等着他们努力工作的同事把事情做完)”以及第四段中“And when the scientists removed the five hardest-working ants
72、 from the site, others immediately jumped in to take up their positions-with no reduction in the groups productivity. (当科学家们把5只工作最努力的蚂蚁移走后,其他的蚂蚁立即跳到它们的位置上,而这并没有降低这组蚂蚁的工作效率)”可知,只需要几只蚂蚁来挖,是为了提高他们的工作效率。故选C。33细节理解题。根据第二段中“So, Goldman, a physicist at Georgia Tech, and his colleagues wanted to know how in
73、dividual ants knew what to do without a central leader issuing orders. To find out, Goldmans team labeled individual fire ants with paint and then watched them dig their narrow tunnelsbarely wide enough for two workers.(因此,佐治亚理工学院的物理学家Goldman和他的同事们想要知道,在没有中央领导蚂蚁发出命令的情况下,单个蚂蚁是如何知道该做什么的。为了找到答案,Goldman
74、的团队给每只火蚁涂上油漆,然后观察它们挖掘狭窄的隧道宽度仅够两个蚂蚁使用)”可知,Goldman是通过直接观察进行这项研究的。故选A。34推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“And when the scientists removed the five hardest-working ants from the site, others immediately jumped in to take up their positions-with no reduction in the groups productivity. It seems that it doesnt matter which a
75、nts are working or freeloading at a given time, as long as there is some division of labor to keep the tunnels flowing smoothly.

77、ing jammed up in tight spaces.(这项研究可能会对机器人技术产生影响。想象一下,成群的机器人被派往废墟中寻找灾难幸存者,或者纳米机器人在我们体内穿行,检测疾病并提供有针对性的医疗。这样的机器人群需要避免被挤在狭小的空间里)”可推知,一些机器人应该被设计成什么也不做。故选D。36G37D38A39C40E【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了常春藤可以用于覆盖墙壁和屋顶以防止热量、吸收雨水并为野生动物提供家园,介绍了常春藤的好处和一些可能存在的潜在问题。36根据上文“The latest thing in architecture is green buildings
78、covering walls and roofs with a carpet of plants to prevent heat, absorb rain and provide a home for wildlife. Many such buildings need complex systems for holding and irrigating the soil.(最新的建筑是绿色建筑用植物覆盖墙壁和屋顶以防止热量、吸收雨水并为野生动物提供家园。许多这样的建筑需要复杂的系统来保持和灌溉土壤)”结合后文主要介绍了常春藤的种植事项,可知,本句与上文构成转折,提出可以种常春藤的办法。故G选
79、项“然而,有一个更简单的方法:种一些常春藤”符合语境,故选G。37根据后文“It grows well in both dry and damp soil.(它在干燥和潮湿的土壤里都长得很好)”可知,常春藤可以适应各种土壤,D选项中soil与后文中soil相对应。故D选项“此外,它能忍受各种土壤”符合语境,故选D。38根据上文“For these reasons, ivy can be widely grown to beautify an ugly wall or a fence.(由于这些原因,常青藤可以广泛种植来美化一堵丑陋的墙或篱笆)”以及后文“It is a heaven for b
80、ees and butterflies in summer and its berries are a valuable food source for birds in winter.(夏天它是蜜蜂和蝴蝶的天堂,冬天它的浆果是鸟类宝贵的食物来源)”可知,上文总结了常春藤本身的优点,后文则提到了它对其他动物的好处,可知本句旨在说明常春藤还可以带来额外的好处。故A选项“种植常青藤可以带来额外的好处”符合语境,故选A。39根据上文“However, there are some concerns about growing ivy. Ivy has a reputation for damagin
81、g buildings, but according to the UKs Royal Horticultural Society, this doesnt usually happen unless the walls already have cracks.(然而,长常春藤也有一些问题。常青藤素有破坏建筑的名声,但根据英国皇家园艺学会的说法,这种情况通常不会发生,除非墙壁已经出现裂缝)”以及后文“But Blanusa at the University of Reading, UK, who has examined the effects of plant climbers, find
82、s that ivy raises humidity next to the wall by only a small amount.(但是英国雷丁大学的Blanusa在研究了植物攀缘植物的影响后发现,常春藤只增加了墙边湿度的一小部分)”可知,本段主要是关于种植常春藤可能导致的问题,且后文提到了常春藤会增加墙边湿度,可知本句是在说明常春藤会使墙壁潮湿的问题,C选项中fear对应上文中concerns,damp对应后文humidity。故C选项“另一个担心是它会使墙壁潮湿”符合语境,故选C。40根据后文“Once ivy has been in the ground for a few year
83、s, it can grow out of control.
