A few days before Christmas, the crowded shopping downtown was starting to annoy us. Most of us were loaded down with packages, and it looked like many of us were beginning to wonder if all those countless friends and relatives actually deserved so many gifts. This was not the Christmas spirit I’d been raised with. When I finally got on a jammed streetcar, the idea of standing there packed like a sardine the whole way home was almost more than I could take. Suddenly I saw something out of the corner of my eye. A small, dark-skinned boy pulled a woman’s sleeve and asked, “Would you like a seat?” He quietly led her to the closest free seat he could find. Then he set out to find another tired person. As soon as each rare new seat became unoccupied, he would quickly move through the crowd in search of another burdened woman. When I finally felt the pull at my own sleeve, I was absolutely struck by the beauty in this little boy’s eyes. He took my hand, saying, “Come with me, ma’am.” As I happily settled down, the little angel of love immediately turned to help his next subject. The people on the streetcar, as usual, had been deliberately avoiding each other’s eyes, but now they began to exchange shy glances and smiles. That little boy had obviously changed something—we all relaxed into a feeling of warmth and actually enjoyed the trip. I didn’t notice when the child got off. When I reached my stop I practically floated of that streetcar, admiring the sparkling Christmas lights on my street in a fresh, new way. Or maybe I was seeing them in an old way, with the same wonder I felt when I was five or six. Anyway, it is the little child that shall lead the ways for me. 1.What can we infer from the underlined part in Paragraph 1? A.The gifts were too heavy to carry home. B.Friends and relatives always deserve gifts. C.People wondered where to buy Christmas gifts. D.The author was fed up with buying Christmas gifts. 2.How did the author feel when she got on the streetcar? A.Uncomfortable. B.Warm. C.Astonished. D.Excited. 3.Why did the author see the boy as the little angel of love? A.Because he was dark-skinned. B.Because he occupied free seats. C.Because he helped tired persons. D.Because he took her hand gently. 4.What changes did the boy bring to the people on the streetcar? A.They got to know one another. B.They admired the boy when he got off. C.They became more friendly to each other. D.They changed the lights on the old streets.

One of the problems damaging our planet is the number of things we throw away. Rubbish of all kinds is piling up in landfill and polluting our rivers and oceans. A more recent addition to the list of things we chuck away is e-waste — electronic items that are broken and not recycled. Now solutions are being found to give this stuff a new life. Many millions of tonnes of televisions, phones, and other electronic equipment are discarded each year, partly because it’s cheaper to replace them than fix them, but also because we lack the skills to repair them. A UN report claims the 50 million tonnes of e-waste generated every year will more than double to 110 million tonnes by 2050, making it the fastest growing waste stream in the world. However, there’s a growing trend for repair events and clubs which could be part of a solution to the growing amount of electrical and electronic junk. The BBC visited a Restart Project in London, which is one of many founded around the world. One of its volunteers, Francesco Calo, said that “this project allows you to reduce waste, extend the life of objects, and it helps people who cannot afford to get rid of items that have developed a fault.” As many electrical items contain valuable metals, another idea is e-waste mining. An experiment at the University of New South Wales involves extracting (提取) these materials from electronic gadgets. It’s thought that doing this could be more profitable than traditional mining. With phones typically containing as many as 60 element, this could be part of the solution to our appetite for new technology. These projects make total sense — collections of e-waste for recycling are “stagnating (停滞不前) or even decreasing” according to Ruediger Kuehr, of the United Nations University And in countries where there is no legislation, much of it just gets dumped. However, the European Union, for example, is trying to tackle the problem by insisting manufacturers have to make appliances longer-lasting and will have to supply spare parts for machines for up to 10 years. 1.According to the passage, electronic items are thrown away because ________. A.they are totally useless B.we have to recycle them C.they will pollute our rivers and oceans D.it’s cheaper to replace them than fix them 2.What is leading to the rise in e-waste? A.Growing trend for repair events. B.E-waste generating cleaner energy. C.Our being hungry for new technology. D.Mining valuable metals in electrical items. 3.What do we know about e-waste? A.E-waste used to be the fastest growing waste stream in the world. B.Tremendous amounts of e-waste are thrown away each year. C.We can’t find the solution to the problem of c-waste. D.Land-filling allows us to reduce e-waste. 4.Which is the best title for the passage? A.Solving the Problem of E-waste B.How to Stop Damaging Our Planet C.Saying No to Throwing Away Things D.How to Collect E-waste for Recycling

For over 40 years, gaokao has not only affected individual students, but also has had a significant impact on national development. In a move to fix talent shortages in the high-end chip, software design, intelligent technology, new materials and advanced manufacturing and social sciences, the Ministry of Education (MOE) announced a new college enrollment plan — called the “strengthening basic disciplines plan (强基计划)” — that will start this year. The pilot plan has been rolled out in the country’s top 36 universities. By May 13, all schools had released their distinctive enrollment plans, encouraging senior high students with special talents to sign up. Before the end of May, students can apply to one of the 36 participating universities. Enrollment policies vary by university, with admission limits set from dozens of students to 200. These universities also detailed their recruitment procedure. After the results of gaokao are released, schools will release lists of qualifying students, who either excel in gaokao, or have won first or second prizes in Olympiads with gaokao scores at least higher than the first round of register lines. These applicants will then receive additional tests and interviews. The final enrollment decision is heavily based on the gaokao score, which will remain the most important criterion (标准), accounting for more than 85 percent of the final result, says MOE. The universities have announced that they will also consider physical tests as a reference for submission (录取), according to China Youth Daily. Once the students are enrolled, they are expecting an intensive educational program. For example, Tsinghua University has set up five schools, offering courses in chemical biology, information and computing science, theory and applied mechanics as their dominant disciplines. The university’s goal is to “put admitted students in small, independent classes with the best and most specific teaching resources and learning environments for their discipline”, according to Yu Xiaoxiao, the director of admission at Tsinghua University. Compared to the previous independent university enrollment scheme (高校自主招生计划), under which some students could either gain admission without taking gaokao or be awarded bonus points in the exam, “the new plan positively facilitates diverse, efficient and scientific progress in Chinese college admissions,” noted China.org. 1.What’s the purpose of the passage? A.To affect individual students with talents. B.To inform people of a new education project. C.To instruct high schools to improve education quality. D.To help the college-bound high school students with exarms. 2.Which of the following is the function of gaokao according to the passage? A.It helps students to get admitted to certain programs. B.It fixes talent shortages in the high technology. C.It greatly influences national development. D.It strengthens college enrollment plans. 3.What do we know about the “strengthening basic disciplines plan”? A.Each applicant can apply to the 36 participating universities. B.The final enrollment decision has nothing to do with the gaokao score. C.The applicants will receive additional tests and interviews after gaokao. D.Each university can admit 200 students with the same enrollment policy. 4.Where is this passage probably taken from? A.A newspaper. B.A science magazine. C.A university website. D.A textbook.

SWEET LOVE Many scientists believe our love of sugar may actually be an addiction. 1.. Then the good feeling goes away, leaving us wanting more. All tasty foods do this, but sugar has a particularly strong effect. In this way, it is in fact an addictive drug, one that doctors recommend we all cut down on. “It seems like every time I study an illness and trace a path to the first cause, I find my way back to sugar,” says scientist Richard Johnson. 2.. Why? “Sugar, we believe, is one of the reasons, if not the major reason,” says Johnson. Our bodies are designed to survive on very little sugar. Early humans often had very little food, so our bodies learned to be very efficient in storing sugar as fat. In this way, we had energy stored for when there was no food. But today, most people have more than enough. 3.. So what is the solution? It’s obvious that we need to eat less sugar. 4.. From breakfast cereals to after-dinner desserts, our foods are increasingly filled with it. Some manufacturers even use sugar to replace taste in foods that are advertised as low in fat. So while the foods appear to be healthier, large amounts of sugar are often added. 5.. Many schools are replacing sugary desserts with healthier options, like fruit. Other schools are trying to encourage exercise by building facilities like walking tracks so students and others in the community can exercise. The battle has not yet been lost. A.It’s not surprising that a cupcake contains a lot of sugar B.So the very thing that once saved us may now be killing us C.The trouble is, in today’s world, that it’s extremely difficult to avoid D.But some people are fighting back against sugar and trying to create a healthier environment E.One-third of adults worldwide have high blood pressure, and up to 347 million have diabetes F.If you have high blood pressure, your heart needs to work harder to pump blood around your body G.When we eat or drink sugary foods, the sugar enters our blood and affects the parts of our brain that make us feel good
