【导语】本文主要以“饿了吗”为例子讲述了外卖app虽为大家带来了便利，但会存在食品安全的隐患。最后建议大家应当学着做饭，为家人准备充满了爱的食物。
【1题分析】
句意：这些人使用他们的手机，只要轻敲屏幕，一顿美味的饭菜就送到了他们的门口。根据“a delicious meal arrives at their”及首字母可知，此处指饭菜送到了家门口，door“门口”，根据their可知，此空应填复数形式。故填(d)oors。
【2题分析】
句意：饿了吗是一家提供这种服务的中国公司。根据“Ele. me is a Chinese company that...this service”可知that引导定语从句，修饰名词company，结合首字母，可确定空处为“提供”服务。英文为offer，company为单数，因此动词应使用第三人称单数offers。故填(o)ffers。
【3题分析】
句意：饿了吗不做饭；它只提供一款连接商家和饭店的软件。根据“consumers（消费者）with restaurants”可知，可确定空处为“连接”connect，名词app为单数，因此动词应使用第三人称单数connects。故填(c)onnects。
【4题分析】
句意：这引起了人们对食品安全的关注。根据“This caused concerns（忧虑）about food”及首字母可知，此处指对食物安全的关注，food safety“食物安全”。故填(s)afety。
【5题分析】
句意：饿了吗决定把这些饭店从网站上下架。根据taking以及首字母可知，此处用take sth off表示“除去某物”。故填(o)ff。
【6题分析】
句意：但是CCTV的警告不能阻止顾客使用饿了吗或其他的app。根据首字母o以及并列关系可知指”其他的app。other“其他的”，修饰名词复数apps。故填(o)ther。
【7题分析】
句意：这很可悲，因为“懒人食物”中缺少的成分是爱。根据“because the missing ingredient（成分）in ‘lazy food’ is love”及首字母可知，这种情况是可悲的，sad“可悲的”。故填(s)ad。
【8题分析】
句意：第一件事是学学怎么做饭。根据首字母f可知指“第一件事”，空处为first，表示“第一的”。故填(f)irst。
【9题分析】
句意：意思是在厨房里多逛逛，观察妈妈或爸爸如何准备一顿饭，然后让他们教你做一道简单的菜。根据语境可知做菜要先准备，空处应为动词prepare“准备”；watch sb. do表示“观察某人做某事”。故填(p)repare。
【10题分析】
句意：你可能成不了伟大的厨师，但你给家人做的菜将充满爱。句中两个小分句为转折关系，故可确定空处为转折连词but“但是”。故填(b)ut。

If you want to take a look at the famous painting Mona Lisa, you’d have to fly to France, stand in a long line for a ticket, and walk with the crowded people in the museum. But thanks to the VR Museum of Fine Art, things will be much easier.
The VR Museum of Fine Art is a free app in Steam, an online gaming platform（平台）. With a special headset（头戴式装置）, you don’t need to buy the tickets or wait in line. You can easily enjoy art at home.
Virtual Reality（VR，虚拟现实）makes a virtual world for you. You can see and even interact（互动）with everything in the virtual world by wearing a special headset. The headset connects to your computer and lets you see a lot of things without going out of your room.
In the VR Museum of Fine Art, for example, you can touch the old Greek sculptures（雕塑）or look carefully on the Mona Lisa. You can also read about each piece of art.
By 2016, there were four “show rooms” with 15 sculptures and two paintings in the VR Museum of Fine Art. They are famous works of art from around the world, such as the Chinese Qin Dynasty’s Terra Cotta Army（兵马俑）, the Great Buddha of Kamakura（镰仓大佛）from Japan and Shiva the Lord of Dance（湿婆舞王）from India.

Ele. me（饿了么）is a Chinese company that o___2___ this service. Ele. me doesn’t cook the food; it just provides an app that c___3___ consumers（消费者）with restaurants. And since it doesn’t cook the food, it can’t guarantee（保证）the quality of the food that gets delivered. It’s that last point that has landed Ele. me in hot water.
March 15 was World Consumer Rights Day. CCTV celebrates the day by naming companies that cheat（欺骗）consumers. One of the companies it targeted in 2016 was Ele. me.
