All sorts of items become litter(垃圾) but two of the most common and most dangerous are cigarette butts(烟头) and plastic bags. Litter is a big problem for our environment but it is a problem that individuals can easily do something about. Not littering at all or cleaning up litter, such as  cigarette butts and plastic bags, greatly improves the quality of our environment.

Although cigarette butts, are small, they are bad for the environment. Over 1,600 billion cigarette are smoked each year in China and large quantities of the butts are thrown away. Worldwide, about 4. 5 trillion butts are littered every year. Apart from the fact that butts spoil the beauty of the environment, they contain some very toxic chemicals. These find their way into the water supply where they decrease the quality of the water and endanger plants and animals that live there. So, if people have to smoke, they shouldn't throw away the butts but put them in the rubbish bin instead.

Plastic bags are another common form of litter that is a danger to the environment. There areseveral reasons for this. They are made from oil and gas, which are non—renewable resources. If they are not recycled, these resources are lost to us. In China, 2 billion plastic bags are used every day. An enormous number of these become litter. This is a huge problem because they last from 20 to 1,000 years in the environment. They float easily in the air and water and travel long distances. They find their way to rivers, parks, beaches and oceans. Plastic bags kill up to one million seabirds, 100, 000 sea mammals and countless fish each year worldwide. It is up to people not to let plastic bags become litter. It would be better if they used fewer and recycled them.

Cleaning up your cigarette butts and plastic bags would improve the environment. And we would know that we were doing something to look after our planet. However, I believe the best solution would be not to smoke or use plastic bags at all.

1. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?

A           B.         C.          D.

 

 

 

( ①= paragraph 1; ②= paragraph 2; ③= paragraph 3; ④a paragraph 4 )

2.The word “toxic” in the paragraph 2 most probably mean “________”

A. precious     B. extra    C.poisonous      D. useless

3. From the text. we know the fact that_________

A. Chinese smokers litter up to 4. 5 trillion butts every year

B. people in the world use 2 billion plastic bags in a single day

C. plastic bags cause 1 million deaths of seabirds each year worldwide

D. the butts can last 20 to 1,000 years in the environment of China

4. What's probably the best title of the passage?. Clean Up Your

A. Say Goodbye to Smokin   B. Protect the Endangered Sea Animals     . C.Use Paper Bags Now      D.Clean Up Your Butts and Bags

We are all interested in equality,but while some people try to protect the school and examination system in the name of equality,others,still in the name of equality,want only to destroy it.

Any society which is interested in equality of opportunity and standards of achievement must regularly test its pupils.The standards may be changed—no examination is perfect--but to have no external(外部的)tests or examinations would mean the end of equality and of standards.There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in external examinations or in any contr schools or on teachers.This would mean that everything would depend on luck every pupll would depend on the efficiency(效率),the ideal and the purpose of teacher.

Without external examinations, employers will 1ook for employees from highly respected schools and from families known to them--a form of favoritism will  replace equality.At the moment,the bright child from an ill—respected schoo1 can show certificates(证书)to prove he or she is suitable for a job,while the lack of a certificate shows the unsuitability of a dull child attanding a well—respected schoo1.This defence of excellence and opportunity would disappear if external examinations were taken away,and the bright child from a poor family would be a prisoner of his or her school’s fame(名誉),unable to compete for employment with the child from the favored schoo1.

The opponents(对手)of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils.According to these  people,there must be no special,different,academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area:all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection.The selection would be made by people who themselves are probably selected by some computer.

1. The word “favoritism” in paragraph 3 is used to decribe the phenomenon that _____. 

A.bright children also need certificates to get satisfying jobs.

B.Pooor children with certificates are favored in job markets.

C.Children attending ordinary schools achieve great success.

D. children from well-respected schools tend to have good jobs.

2.What would happen if examinations were taken away according to the author?    

A.Children’s job opportunity would be affected by their school reputation. 

B. Schools for bright children would lose their reputation

C.There would be more opportunities and excellence.

D.Children from poor families would be able to change their schools.

3. The opponents of the examination system will agree that _____.

A.Computers should be selected to take over many jobs.

B.Special classed are necessary to keep the school standards.

C.Jobs should not be assigned by systematic selection.

D.Schools with academic subjects should be abolished.

4. The passage mainly focuses on ____.

  A. schools and certificates   B opportunity and employment

The world’s biggest Internet search engine, Google, has proven once again to be king of the Web. Users can download “Google Wi-Fi” software and then enjoy free Wi-Fi service available in some US cities since last Tuesday.

  Wi-Fi is short for “Wireless Fidelity”(无线上网). It allows laptop computers and personal digital assistants to connect to the Internet at high speed by radio sigal.

  A person with a Wi-Fi enabled computer can connect to the Internet when near one of the network’s access points. The place covered by one or several access points is called a hotspot. Google had already set up two “hotspots” in the US city of San Francisco which provide a free Wi-Fe service.

  The Wi- Fi technology even allows users to enjoy a free Internet phone service. Some scientists argue that Wi-Fi may replace mobile phone networks.

  Wi-Fi is stioo limited to a few cities, where there are “ hotspots”. But its capability(容量) of sending information has already done better than that of the mobile phone network, even that of 3G (Third Generation telecommunication technology). Some scientists have started to call Wi-Fi 4G.

  In addition to a high speed Internet connection, Fi-Fi has other advantages compared to mobile phones. We-Fi is global. The same Wi-Fi system works in different countries around the world. Different from using cell phones, you don’t need to change computers to use Internet phones when you go to other places and most importantly, many Internet phones cost you nothing at all.

1. Wi-Fi is not available in cities without_____.

 A. a computer   B. a radio   C. a hotspot   D. a cell phone

2. Which of the following is NOT the advantage of Wi-Fi?

A.  The high speed Internet connection.   B. Many free Internet phones.

B.  Using the same computers for Internet phones when you go to other places. C. Used in all the US cities.

3. Some scientists started to call Wi-Fi 4G, because_____.

A.it is the product of the Google”s 4th generation.

B..it is more capable of sending information than the mobile phone network.

C.it has been used by more than four generations.

D.Wi-Fi will surely take the place of the mobile phone network.

Did you know that women’s brains are smaller than men’s?  The average women’s brain weighs 10% less than men’s.Since research has shown that the bigger the brain, the cleverer the animal, men must be more intelligent than women.Right? Wrong.Men and women always score similarly on intelligence tests, despite the difference in brain size.Why? After years of study, researchers have concluded that it’s what’s inside that matters, not just the size of the brain.The brain consists of “grey matter” and “white matter”.While men have more of the latter, the amount of “thinking” brain is almost exactly the same in both sexes.

It has been suggested that smaller brain appears to work faster, perhaps because the two sides of the brain are better connected in women.This means that little girls tend to learn to speak earlier, and that women can understand sorts of information from different sources at the same time.When it comes to talking to the boss on the phone, cooking dinner and keeping an eye on the baby all at the same time, it’s women who come out on top every time.

There are other important differences between two sexes.As white matter is the key to spatial tasks, men know better where things are in relation to other things.“A great footballer always knows where he is in relation to the other players, and he knows where to go,” says one researcher.That may explain one of life’s great mysteries: why men refuse to ask for direction and women often need to!

The differences begin when fetuses(胎儿)are about nine weeks old, which can be seen in the action of children as young as one.A boy would try to climb a barrier before him or push it down while a girl would attract help from others.These brain differences also explain the fact that more men take up jobs that require good spatial skills, while more women speech skills.It may all go back to our ancestors, among whom women needed speech skills to take care of their babies and men needed spatial skills to hunt, according to one research.

If all this disappoints you, it shouldn’t.“The brain changes throughout our lives according to what we do with it.”says a biologist.

1.Which of the following is true according to the first paragraph? ________.

A.Women’s brain is 10% less than men’s

B.Grey matter controls thinking in the brain.

C.Grey matter plays the same role as white matter.

D.Both sexes have the same amount of white matter.

2.What can we infer from the second and third paragraphs? ________.

A.Men do better dealing with one job at a time.

B.Women prefer doing many things at a time. 

C.Women do not need to tell directions.

D.Men have weaker spatial abilities.

3.Which of the following do you agree with according to the fourth paragraph? _  A.More women take up jobs requiring speech skills

B.Young boys may be stronger than young girls.

C.Women may have stronger feelings than men.

D.Our ancestors needed more spatial skills.

4.What is the writer’s attitude in writing this passage? ________.

A.Defensive.  B.Objective.  C.Persuasive. D.Supportive.
