六、阅读理解(共4题,共 20分)

21、A French has just launched a bottled red wine flavored with cola.

Bordeaux-based winemaker Haussmann has already had success with grapefruit and passionfruit-flavored red wine and white wine. Their newest wine, Rouge Sucette, which translates to Red Lollipop, is made from 75 percent grapes and 25 percent water, with added sugar and cola flavoring. It is meant to be served chilled.

Why the break with tradition?

Wine sales in France is down. In 1980, more than half of adults bought wine almost daily, but the number has dropped to just 17 percent today. And so according to Pauline, company spokeswoman for Haussmann, wine makers need to attract younger drinkers and women.

“The cola flavor is to answer to a new kind of need and a market demand,” she tells us, “Tastes develop in time and we have to adapt.”

French restaurant expert Fred gives several factors behind the downward trend in wine drinking among the French: the financial crisis, which brought with it the death of the long lunch hour; reduced legal limits for driving under the influence of alcohol; and a general move towards healthier living.

Cola wine may seem out of step with French ways, but that’s because a lot of people have the wrong idea about what those ways really are.

Pauline says. “We’re changing with the times. We have a strong foundation of food and wine.” Of the different aromas that Haussamann tested, “cola was the best mix,” she says. “That made many people interested, and they were curious to taste it.”

The thirst for sweeter drinks isn’t limited to France. “Think about it,” says Fred, “You have all sorts of champagne cocktails. So what’s the difference between those and red wine and Coca-Cola? It’s about marketing.” Pauline insists Rouge Sucette isn’t just wine mixed with cola, anyway. It contains only the essence of cola, making it perhaps a bit more refined, though with a very similar flavor.

So how does a Frenchman like Fred think about it?

“It’s refreshing and kind of fun,” he says. “I don’t think I would buy it, but if I was going to drink it, I would make it myself, because I would feel a bit better about it.”

【1】“Rouge Sucette” is also named as “_________”.

A.passionfruit-flavored red wine

B.white wine

C.Red Lollipop

D.chilled wine

【2】The newest wine produced by Haussmann is made from __________.

A.sugar and cola

B.passion fruit and grape fruit

C.cola and passion fruit

D.grapes and water

【3】The company spokeswoman, Pauline explained that they had to adapt because _________.

A.half of adults bought wine

B.17 percent of customers are young drinkers

C.they need to attract younger people

D.the cola flavor can’t be accepted any longer

【4】According to the passage, _________ is one of the reasons that led to the disappearance of the long lunch hour.

A.the downward sales in wine

B.the taste development

C.the influence of alcohol

D.the financial crisis

【5】In Pauline’s opinion, Rough Sucette __________.

A.is out of step with French ways

B.is one of the champagne cocktails

C.isn’t just wine mixed with cola

D.isn’t different from other wines

【6】The underlined words from Fred probably indicated(表明) that _________.

A.the new kind of wine won’t be popular

B.the new kind of wine won’t help wine makers pass the financial crisis

C.the cola flavor is no longer popular

D.the cola flavored wine is harmful to health

22、The word “hobby” is an interesting word. Every person has one thing he or she likes to do for fun. Some people like to collect things like stamps or story books. Others like to play football or go window shopping where they can look at many beautiful things without buying them.

I also collect musical instruments from China like the erhu, the dizi, the xiao, the suona, and the pipa. These are the instruments of China which cannot be found in America.

23、   What colors do you like, red, green or blue? In fact, colors not only affect (影响) our lives but are widely used in our language.

For example, if a man has “a green thumb( ,” he must be very good at gardening(栽培花木). He surely has a beautiful garden(花园). If a person is “feeling blue”, that means he is unhappy and sad. We need to cheer him up. And did you ever tell a “white lie(谎言)”? If you want to tell your friend bad news but don’t want to hurt his feelings, you can tell him a white lie.

See? Colors are often used in our language. Don’t you think they are interesting?

However, people who are color-blind can’t see the difference between one color and another. For example, red, green and yellow may look like gray (灰色的) to them. Some of them may see red as green, and others may see blue as yellow. It is quite inconvenient because they can’t see the right colors of the traffic lights, so they can’t drive cars. They also have problems using computers.

Parents may notice their child is color-blind when the child is learning the colors. They can use color-blindness tests, along with other eye tests, to check their child’s eyes.

根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

1I love plants and take good care of my garden. Which is TRUE about me?

A.I feel blue. B.I’m color-blind.

C.I tell a white lie. D.I have a green thumb.
