Cafeterias have been filled with challenges—right from planning，purchasing，and preparing，to reducing waste，staying on budget，managing goods，and training staff.Through the tedious process，restaurateurs lacked a unified platform for efficient management.To bring consistency to the unorganised catering(餐饮) industry，childhood friends Arjun Subramanian and Raj Jain，who shared a passion for innovation，decided to partner in 2019 to explore opportunities in the cafeteria industry.
Ⅲ.主题语篇阅读
语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Platos这个创业公司的起源、业务模式、发展历程以及未来规划。
In May 2020，they co-founded Platos，a one-stop solution for restaurants with a custom technology kit to streamline all aspects of cafeteria management.The company offers end-to-end cafeteria management，staff selection and food trials to ensure smooth operations and consistent service.“We believe start-ups solve real problems and Platos is our shot at making daily workplace food enjoyable again.We aim to simplify the dining experience，providing a convenient and efficient solution that benefits both restaurateurs and customers and creating a connected ecosystem，” says Subramanian，CEO and co-founder.
Platos guarantees that a technology-driven cafeteria allows customers to order，pay，pick up，and provide ratings and feedback.It also offers goods and menu management to effectively perform daily operations. Additionally，its applications connect all shareholders for a smart cafeteria experience. “We help businesses that are into catering on condition that they have access to an industrial kitchen setup where they’re making food according to certain standards，” Jain states.
Since the beginning，Platos claims to have transformed 45 cafeterias across eight cities in the country.Currently，it has over 45,000 monthly users placing more than 200,000 orders.Despite facing challenges in launching cafeterias across major cities in the initial stages，Platos has experienced a 15% increase in its month-over-month profits.
As for future plans，the start-up is looking to raise $1 million from investors as strategic partners，bringing in capital，expertise，and networks.“Finding the right lead investor is the compass that points your start-up toward success，” Subramanian says.

In a video shared online，a young photographer，Lily，is seen confidently directing a well-known action movie star for a photograph. Even though the actor is very tall，she is not nervous.She tells him what to do like a real professional，even though she’s still quite young.
语篇解读　本文为一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了擅长给人物拍照的Lily的摄影生涯。
“Given his size，I asked him to make more pronounced movements，” said Lily，reflecting on the shoot in a recent interview.The young shutterbug(摄影爱好者) has already taken photos of several personalities and has earned a significant following online，with her work receiving millions of likes.
Lily’s journey into photography began when she was just four years old，with a simple point-and-shoot camera.Her father，recognizing her natural ability to connect with people，encouraged her to explore street photography.At the age of five，she captured a portrait of a renowned musician-turned-actress during a chance encounter in a store，which quickly went viral on the social media.
Since then，Lily has been receiving numerous requests to photograph top talents.“The more I photograph in public places，the more recognition I get，which in turn leads to more chances to work with well-known figures，” she explained.
Because of her young age，some have questioned how she manages to secure such high-profile shoots.Her father，who assists with minor post-production edits，explained that her unique perspective was what attracted the attention of talent agencies.“Through Lily’s lens(镜头)，subjects show a different side，” he said.“Her photos capture a softer，gentler aspect of people，celebrity or not.”
Addressing concerns about the use of filters and heavy editing，Lily insists that her images are minimally processed.Her ultimate goal is to evoke (唤起) emotions through her photography and，eventually，to become a full-time portrait photographer.For now，she continues to hone(磨炼) her craft and enjoys the present moment.
5.What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph
A.A girl is directing a film.

解析
7.How does Lily differ from professional photographers in photographing
A.She is good at adjusting lens.
B.She constantly learns from others.
C.She photographs from a special angle.
D.She gains recognition from celebrities.
√
细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段中“Her father，who assists with minor post-production edits，explained that her unique perspective was what attracted the attention of talent agencies.”可知，Lily不同于其他摄影师之处在于她从不同的角度来拍摄，故选C。
解析
8.What is Lily’s attitude to improving her skill
A.Hesitant. B.Determined.
C.Pessimistic. D.Negative.
√
观点态度题。根据文章最后一段中“Her ultimate goal is to evoke(唤起) emotions through her photography and，eventually，to become a full-time portrait photographer.For now，she continues to hone(磨炼) her craft and enjoys the present moment.”可知，她想要通过摄影唤起情感，最终成为一名全职的肖像摄影师。现在，她继续磨炼自己的技艺，享受当下。由此可知，她对提升自己技能的态度是坚定的，故选B。
解析

Everyone has a dream career as a student，to be a lawyer，a physician，an architect or a chemist.Some students abandon their dreams when faced with various challenges，such as financial problems.However，some students with high intelligence and strong determination are willing to make every effort to fulfill their dreams，which guarantees their success.
Jack’s story perfectly illustrates this spirit of perseverance.Jack was disabled from birth.When he was a child，he went through various difficulties，and after graduation，few companies would possibly employ him.But he didn’t give up his dream and tried to adjust himself to the surroundings.He was convinced that even though he had disability，he had an intelligent brain.In fact，he did what most ordinary people couldn’t，becoming a brilliant businessman.He announced that he intended to form an association to train the disabled so that they could earn their living.He deserved the respect of all the people.
每个人在学生时代都怀揣着梦想的职业——成为一名律师、医生、建筑师或化学家。当面临经济困难等种种挑战时，有些学生会放弃梦想。然而，那些天赋过人且意志坚定的学子，却愿意付出努力来实现理想，这种坚持终将铸就他们的成功。 杰克的故事很好地说明了这种坚持不懈的精神。他天生残疾，童年经历了各种困难，毕业后极少的公司愿意录用他。但他从未放弃梦想，而是努力适应环境。他深信他虽然身躯残缺，却拥有聪慧的头脑。事实上，他完成了大多数健全者都难以企及的成就——成为卓越的企业家。他公开宣布要创立协会培训残障人士，帮助他们自食其力。他理应受到所有人的敬重。

Cafeterias have been filled with challenges—right from planning，purchasing，and preparing，to reducing waste，staying on budget，managing goods，and training staff.Through the tedious process，restaurateurs lacked a unified platform for efficient management.To bring consistency to the unorganised catering(餐饮) industry，childhood friends Arjun Subramanian and Raj Jain，who shared a passion for innovation，decided to partner in 2019 to explore opportunities in the cafeteria industry.
In May 2020，they co-founded Platos，a one-stop solution for restaurants with a custom technology kit to streamline all aspects of cafeteria management.The company offers end-to-end cafeteria management，staff selection and food trials to ensure smooth operations and consistent service.“We believe start-ups solve real problems and Platos is our shot at making daily workplace food enjoyable again.We aim to simplify the dining experience，providing a convenient and efficient solution that benefits both restaurateurs and customers and creating a connected ecosystem，” says Subramanian，CEO and co-founder.
Platos guarantees that a technology-driven cafeteria allows customers to order，pay，pick up，and provide ratings and feedback.It also offers goods and menu management to effectively perform daily operations.Additionally，its applications connect all shareholders for a smart cafeteria experience.“We help businesses that are into catering on condition that they have access to an industrial kitchen setup where they’re making food according to certain standards，” Jain states.
Since the beginning，Platos claims to have transformed 45 cafeterias across eight cities in the country.Currently，it has over 45,000 monthly users placing more than 200,000 orders.Despite facing challenges in launching cafeterias across major cities in the initial stages，Platos has experienced a 15% increase in its month-over-month profits.
As for future plans，the start-up is looking to raise $1 million from investors as strategic partners，bringing in capital，expertise，and networks.“Finding the right lead investor is the compass that points your start-up toward success，” Subramanian says.

In a video shared online，a young photographer，Lily，is seen confidently directing a well-known action movie star for a photograph.Even though the actor is very tall，she is not nervous.She tells him what to do like a real professional，even though she’s still quite young.
“Given his size，I asked him to make more pronounced movements，” said Lily，reflecting on the shoot in a recent interview.The young shutterbug(摄影爱好者) has already taken photos of several personalities and has earned a significant following online，with her work receiving millions of likes.
Lily’s journey into photography began when she was just four years old，with a simple point-and-shoot camera.Her father，recognizing her natural ability to connect with people，encouraged her to explore street photography.At the age of five，she captured a portrait of a renowned musician-turned-actress during a chance encounter in a store，which quickly went viral on the social media.
Since then，Lily has been receiving numerous requests to photograph top talents.“The more I photograph in public places，the more recognition I get，which in turn leads to more chances to work with well-known figures，” she explained.
Because of her young age，some have questioned how she manages to secure such high-profile shoots.Her father，who assists with minor post-production edits，explained that her unique perspective was what attracted the attention of talent agencies.“Through Lily’s lens(镜头)，subjects show a different side，” he said.“Her photos capture a softer，gentler aspect of people，celebrity or not.”
Addressing concerns about the use of filters and heavy editing，Lily insists that her images are minimally processed.Her ultimate goal is to evoke(唤起) emotions through her photography and，eventually，to become a full-time portrait photographer.For now，she continues to hone(磨炼) her craft and enjoys the present moment.
