Many cities around the world today are heavily polluted. Careless methods of production and lack of consumer demand for environment friendly products have contributed to the pollution problem. One result is that millions of tons of glass, paper, plastic, and metal containers are produced, and these are difficult to get rid of. However, today, more and more consumers are choosing “green” and demanding that the products they buy should be safe for the environment. Before they buy a product, they ask questions like these: “Will this shampoo damage the environment?” “Can this metal container be reused or can it only be used once?” A recent study showed that two out of five adults now consider the environmental safety of a product before they buy it. This means that companies must now change the way they make and sell their products to make sure that they are “green”, that is, friendly to the environment. Only a few years ago, it was impossible to find green products in supermarkets, but now there are hundreds. Some supermarket products carry labels to show that the product is green. Some companies have made the manufacturing (生产) of clean and safe products their main selling point and emphasize it in their advertising. The concern for a safer and cleaner environment is making companies rethink how they do business. No longer will the public accept the old attitude of “Buy it, use it, throw it away, and forget it”. The public pressure is on, and gradually business is cleaning up its act. 1.It is clear from the text that the driving force (动力) behind green products is____. A. public caring for the environment B. rapid development of companies C. new ways of doing business D. rapid growth of supermarkets 2.The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refers to_________. A. the selling point B. the company’s product C. a great demand for healthful goods D. the manufacturing of green products 3.What would be the best title for the text? A. Business and people B. Shopping Habits Are Changing C. Business Goes Green D. Supermarkets and Green Products

There are some special traditions in Hawaii. People are very friendly and always welcome visitors. They give visitors a lei, a long necklace（项链）of beautiful fresh flowers. Men wear bright flowered shirts, and women often wear long flowered dresses. There are traditional Chinese, Japanese and Philippines holidays and all the holidays from the United States. They call Hawaii the Aloha State. Aloha means both hello and goodbye. It also means I love you. Usually when people from different countries, races and traditions live together, there are serious problems. There are a few problems in Hawaii, but, in general, people have learned to live together in peace.

My husband and children think they are very lucky that they are living and that it’s Christmas again. They can’t see that we live on a dirty street in a dirty house among people who aren’t very good. But Johnny and children can’t see this. What a pity it is that our neighbours have to make happiness out of all this dirt. I decided that my children must get out of this. The money that we’ve saved isn’t nearly enough. The McGaritys have money but they are so proud. They look down upon the poor. The McGarity girl just yesterday stood out there in the street eating from a bag of candy while a ring of hungry children watched her. I saw those children looking at her and crying in their hearts; and when she couldn’t eat any more she threw the rest down the sewer (下水道). Why, is it only because they have money? There is more to happiness than money in the world, isn’t there? Miss Jackson who teaches at the Settlement House isn’t rich, but she knows things. She understands people. Her eyes look straight into yours when she talks with you. She can read your mind. I’d like to see the children be like Miss Jackson when they grow up. 1.We can learn from the passage that the writer _______. A. is easy to get along with B. is unhappy with their life C. is good at observing and understanding D. is never pleased with her neighbors 2.What do you think of McGarity girl? A. She is proud and helpful. B. She is selfish and cruel. C. She is lonely and unhappy. D. She is kind and polite. 3.The writer tries to tell us that _______. A. money is the key to everything B. the more money you have, the less happy you’ll be C. there is something more important than money D. when talking to people we should look into their eyes 4.Which of the following does NOT show the writer’s view on money? A. Why, is it only because they have money? B. There is more to happiness than money. C. Miss Jackson isn’t rich, but she knows things. D. The money we saved isn’t nearly enough.

My father and I were very close. I loved pleasing him, and he was always proud of my success. If I won a spelling contest at school, he was on top of the world. Later in life whenever I got a promotion, I’d call my father right away and he’d rush out to tell all his friends. In 1970, when I was named President of the Ford Motor Company, I don’t know which of us was more excited. Like many native Italians, my parents were very open with their feelings and their love—not only at home, but also in public. Most of my friends would never hug their fathers. But I hugged and kissed my dad at every opportunity—nothing could have felt more natural. He was a curious man who was always trying new things. He was the first person in Allentown to buy a motorcycle. Unfortunately, my father and his motorcycle didn’t get along too well. He fell off it so often that he got rid of it just a month after buying it. As a result, he never again trusted any vehicle with less than four wheels. Because of that motorcycle, I wasn’t allowed to have a bicycle when I was growing up. Whenever I wanted to ride a bike, I had to borrow one from a friend. On the other hand, my father let me drive a car as soon as I turned sixteen. 1.When I won a contest at school, my father would _______. A. tell all his friends about it B. feel most happy over it C. get very surprised at it D. be more excited than I 2.Which of the following statements shows that my father was a curious man? A. I wasn’t allowed to have a car when I was growing up. B. He was the first person in town to buy a motorcycle. C. He was always proud of my success in everything. D. He was very open with his feelings and his love. 3.My father trusted no vehicle with less than four wheels because ______. A. he did not like the way I borrowed bicycles from friends B. he thought that cars were faster than motorcycles C. he liked every new model made by my company D. he once had trouble in riding his motorcycle 4.Which of the following statements is wrong? A. It was quite natural for the author to kiss and hug his father. B. When the author reached 16 he was allowed to drive a car. C. Both of the author’s parents were not open with their feelings. D. Anytime the author got a promotion, he would inform his father.

There was no other bird like him in the whole world. He could learn to say any word except one. He could not say the name of his native town, Catarlo . The man did everything he could to teach the parrot to say Catarlo , but he never succeeded . At first , he was very gentle with the bird , but gradually he lost his temper , “You stupid bird ！Why can’t you learn to say that one word ;Say Catarlo ,or I’ll kill you！”But the parrot could not say it . Many times the man shouted ,“Say Catarlo, Or I’ll kill you！”But the bird would never repeat the name . Finally the man gave up , he picked up the parrot and threw it into the chicken house ,You are even more stupid than the chickens .”In the chicken house , there were four chickens waiting to be killed for Sunday’s dinner . The next morning, when he went out to the chicken house, the man opened the door and was shocked by what he saw. He could not believe his eyes and ears. On the floor laid three dead chickens. The parrot was shouting at the fourth ,“Say Catarlo, or I’ll kill you.”
