Waste Not,Want Not
1.Bob and Clara Darlington,who own and run a farm in the North of England,have always looked for new ways of making money out of the produce they grow.Their success began when they established a shop on their farm,so that people could come and buy fresh vegetables directly from them.
2.The business was an immediate success,and soon scored top marks in a competition set up by the Farm Retail Association to find the best farm shop in the country.The Association’s inspectors found the Darlingtons’ shop offered excellent service and value for money as well as quality fruit and vegetables.
3.Clara Darlington is a trained chef and,in addition to a range of home-grown foods and other local produce,she began offering a variety of prepared meals which she had made herself in the farmhouse kitchen.A small care alongside the farm shop was soon added,with everything that visitors could taste on the menu also being for sale in the shop.
4.Clara admits that starting the business was expensive,and she has worked very hard,but maintains that if the product is good,the public recognize this and buy it.“I aim to offer the highest quality to our customers,whether they come in for a loaf of bread,or take a whole dinner-party menu.I take it as a compliment(恭维) if people take home one of my dishes to serve to their family and friends and get away with pretending they made it themselves.”
5.So it was that the couple realized that they had a surplus of misshapen or damaged vegetables grown on the farm which were unsuitable for selling in the shop.Clara,not wishing to see them get thrown away,decided to turn them into soup.
6.The soup met with the immediate approval of customers to the shop and Clara now produces ten different varieties.She spent much of the summer traveling up and down to London by rail,doing presentations of the soups.As a result,they are now served in first-class railway restaurant cars belonging to three companies as well as being stocked by a number of high-class London stores.
A.Time well spent is rewarded
B.Professional recognition is obtained
C.A necessary alternative to farming
D.Professional skills are exploited
E.Continuing investment in high standards
F.Ensuring that nothing gets wasted
Paragraph 5______
选项
答案
F
解析
第五段主要是说这对夫妇意识到他们形状不好或损坏的菜有剩余,所以Clara想到把这些东西做成汤,这样就避免了浪费。F选项Ensuring that nothing gets wasted(确保没有东西被浪费)与本段内容相符,故选F。

如果将来有人编写20世纪中国小说史,金庸自然不能遗漏。同样,琼瑶也不能遗漏。这两位作家都曾深深影响了一代人。如果说对深层心理的影响,可能琼瑶的作用更大。看惯革命文学的一代大陆人,一接触琼瑶,恰如迷路的孩子重归母亲的怀抱,可能把半辈子的眼泪,都一夕间流尽了。
