云南省昆明市寻甸回族彝族自治县联考2024年中考二模英语试题
A mystery box (盲盒) keeps what's inside a secret. But now shops are putting food in them—they are "leftover mystery boxes".
The food inside is near its expiration date (保质期) and will be thrown away if no one buys it. They are more and more popular in China's cities, such as Beijing, Nanjing and Chengdu.
In 2021 when I was studying in the UK, I bought leftover mystery boxes from an app called Too Good To Go. Each box cost about 3 to 5 pounds (27 to 45 yuan), and there were usually three to four things inside. The box cost 3 pounds but the original price (原价) was around 10 pounds.
I felt happy to see kinds of food in it and then I would be happier thinking about how much money I saved. And it helped to cut down wasting of food.
Because I can't choose what's in the box, sometimes I got the same kind of food. I had to make other dishes, such as a salad, to make the meal healthier.
A. You should pay more money for it. B. Usually, there are toys in mystery boxes. C. But the boxes also brought me problems. D. Teenagers don't like buying mystery boxes. E. Each box costs little money but has a lot of food inside. F. For example, a box I bought had three kinds of bread and one cake. G. Every time I got a mystery box, the joy of opening it came to me first. |
