    It was a cold day and I had no desire to drive to my daughter Carolyn’s house. But she had insisted I see something on top of the mountain. So here I was, unwillingly making the two-hour journey through fog.

After I parked the car, we walked along a path with thick pine needles and huge evergreens towering over us. Gradually, the peace and silence began to fill my mind. Then we turned a corner and stopped—and I breathed in amazement!

From the top of the mountain, covering several valleys, were rivers of daffodils(水仙花) in bloom. All kinds of colors spread like a carpet before us. It looked as if the sun had spilled gold down the mountainside. At the center hung a waterfall of roses. Here and there were colorful tulips(郁金香). How fantastic the wonder was!

A lot of questions filled my mind. Who created such beauty? Why? How?

Nearing the center of the garden, we saw a sign that read: ''Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking.'' The first answer was: ''One Woman—Two Hands, Two Feet, and Very Little Brain.'' The second was: ''One at a Time.'' The third: ''Started in 1958. ''

As we drove home, I was so moved that I could scarcely speak. ''She changed the world,'' I finally said, ''one bulb at a time. She started almost 40 years ago, probably just the beginning of an idea, but she kept at it.''

A.she didn't want to see her daughter.

C.Chance often favors the prepared mind.

    Plastic waste is a huge problem in Indonesia, and this has led the country's second-largest city to come up with a novel approach to encourage residents to recycle—free bus rides in exchange for used plastic bottles and cups. The city of Surabaya launched the initiative back in April—the first Indonesian city to put it into practice, and citizens can ride city buses by either dropping off the plastic bottles and cups at terminals(终点站) or using the plastic items to pay their fare directly.

Under the new recycling initiative, a two-hour bus ticket costs up to five plastic bottles or 10 plastic cups, depending on the size. The city hopes this scheme will help it meet its target of becoming free of plastic waste by 2020.

''Garbage, like plastic bottles, piles up in my neighborhood, so I brought it here, so the environment is not only cleaner but also to help ease the workload of garbage collectors,'' said Linda, a resident of Surabaya.

According to Reuters, data show that 15 percent (nearly 400 tons) of the city's daily waste is plastic. The data also show that one bus can collect up to 550 pounds of plastic each day, totaling about 7.5 tons each month. After collecting the plastic waste, workers remove labels and bottle caps before the plastic is sold to recycling companies. This money then goes toward bus operations and to fund urban green spaces.

1.What does the underlined word ''initiative'' probably mean?

A.A new price of riding buses.

B.Dropping off the plastic bottles.

C.Selling plastic items to get fares.

D.The first action to recycle plastic.

2.What's Surabaya’s new way to deal with plastic waste?

A.Plastic items are only sold to companies.

B.Citizens are encouraged to sort plastic bottles.

C.Natives can take city buses instead of driving.

D.People can trade plastic waste for free bus rides.

3.What's Linda's attitude towards the program?

A.Doubtful. B.Supportive. C.Negative. D.Uncaring.

4.What's the purpose of Surabaya's taking the measure?

A.To develop the city's economy.

B.To call on green travel in the city.

C.To raise the environmental awareness.

D.To solve the worldwide social problem.

    You might be surprised that dollar stores typically have a variety of products that can be found at a better price than regular stores—though, there are some things you should never buy at the dollar store.

A dollar store is a variety store, meaning they sell a wide range of products. Party supplies, cleaning supplies, and paper products are some of the great, cheap finds you can find at dollar stores. But, not every product is always priced at just one dollar. In fact, dollar stores often have a wide range of products at prices between $1 and $10.

“Dollar stores are able to profit, in part because operating costs are kept low by employing only a handful of people, and by limiting the amount of cold chain storage in their stores (which is necessary for fresh foods like produce),” says Minovi, a policy associate, focusing on healthy retail policies.

Dollar stores can provide a lot of items at a cheaper price, but that doesn’t mean the item will last longer or function at the best quality. With that in mind, these are the things you should have been buying from the dollar store this whole time.

“Dollar stores in the United States typically seek to open locations in economically disadvantaged communities that lack a full-service grocery store,” adds Minovi. “Unfortunately, the food on offer is largely calorie-dense (高热量) and nutrient-poor, so this model depends on selling nutritionally poor food to mostly low-income customers.”

1.What’s the obvious advantage of dollar stores?

A.Varieties of goods are sold cheaply.

B.Customers can get cheap but perfect goods.

C.Goods never bought at regular stores are offered.

D.All the products in the store are sold at one dollar.

2.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?

A.What goods a dollar store sells. B.How a dollar store makes money.

C.Why a dollar store employs people. D.How a dollar store keeps cold foods.

3.Which of the following does Minovi agree with?

A.Dollar stores make money by cutting down employees.

B.Much cold frozen food can be bought in dollar stores.

C.Food from the dollar stores is nutritional and healthy.

D.Dollar stores are popular with low-income customers.

4.What is probably the best title for the text?

A.Locations of Dollar Stores B.The Service of Dollar Stores

C.The Operation of Dollar Stores D.Disadvantages of Dollar Stores
