For many the idea of your dream home is not buying a bigger homebut a home that you have built by yourself. A house that is unique and fit for your tastes and your lifestyle. It sounds great but where do you begin to design your dream home? Here is a quick guide that can help you make your dreams come true.

The first step is to get an idea of what type of home you want. You can get inspiration from others. Drive around to neighbourhoods that have the styles of homes you like and take pictures. You can also cut out pictures from magazines, newspapers, or print out pictures you find on the Internet.

The next step will be to make two lists of items for yourself. The first list will be those items or features that you feel your new home must havesuch as granite counter tops or a hot water heater. The second list will be those items or features that are on your wish list like a fireplace or slate floors.

At this point you will probably have a good idea of what your dream home will look like, so you will need to seek some professional help. You will need to hire an architect to put your ideas down on paper.You may need to interview a few different architects to find one that you are comfortable with. Make sure whomever you choose for final drawings has a full understanding of local building codes and zoning by­laws. In any ease your final plan will need to be approved by the city and a building permit must be obtained before any construction can begin.

It is time to look for a contractor(承包人). Whichever way you can do it in, be sure you are comfortable with your contractor and you have got references from his past clients. Remember the more homework you do in the beginning, the more enjoyable the process will be.

It's hardly surprising that weather is a favorite topic for so many people around the world—it affects where we choose to live, what we wear, our moods, and perhaps even our national characteristics.Studies have shown that changeable weather can make it difficult to concentrate, cloudy skies slow down reaction, and hotdry winds make many people bad­tempered.

If you live in a place like Britain, where the weather seems to change daily if not hourlyyou could be forgiven for thinking that the weather is random.In fact the weather is controlled by systems which move around areas of the globe.In the UK the weather depends on depressions (低压气流), often called lowsand anticyclones(反气旋)also known as highs.These systems start in the Atlantic Ocean, and make their way across the British Isles from the west to the east.Highs bring sunny weather, while lows bring rain and wind.In modern times, human activities seem to be altering weather patterns.Gases produced by heavy industry change the temperature of the earth's surfaceand affect cloud formation.Some researchers say that factories in Europe and North America may have been one of the causes of the droughts in Africa in the 1980s.

The human race has always tried to guess the weatherespecially in areas of the world where there are frequent changes.Traditional rhymes point to early attempts to identify weather patterns; popular poems include

Red sky at night, shepherd's delightred sky in the morning, shepherd's warning.

Flies will swarm before a storm.

Rain before 7clear by 11.

While folk wisdom can provide a guide to help forecast weather, today's methods of prediction increasingly rely on  technology.Satellites, balloonsships, aircrafts and weather centers with sensitive monitoring equipment, send data to computers.The data is then processed, and the weather is predicted.Howevereven this system cannot predict weather for longer than about a week.

1.When weather keeps changing________.

Apeople become bad­tempered

Bpeople's reaction slows down

Cpeople find it hard to focus on their work

Dpeople find it easy to focus on their work

Arandom Bmoist

Cdepressing Dsatisfying

3.According to a traditional rhyme, if there is a red sky at night, the next day will be________.

Awindy Brainy

Cfine Dsnowy

4.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

AAnticyclones often bring rain and wind.

BWeather forecasting has been done for a long time.

CWeather could never be predicted.

DModern methods of weather prediction are developed from folk wisdom.

5.What is mainly talked about in the second paragraph?

AChanges in weather.

The United States is not part of the Kyoto Protocol.But since 2005 more than 1,000 mayors across the country have agreed to sign their own version of the protocol.

It is called the United States Conference of Mayors' Climate Protection Agreement.Local leaders have agreed to follow the suggestions of the Kyoto Protocol in their communities.They have also agreed to urge state and federal governments to follow these suggestions.One goal is to reduce air pollution to the 1990 levels by 2012.

A “green” city might work on several kinds of environmental goals and programs.These include air qualityreducing electricity use, green building, public health, the reuse of materials, water quality and clean transportation.

The Natural Resources Defense Council works to protect the environment through action, law and science.One of its online projects is called Smarter Cities, which lists some cities that have made important environmental steps.

WashingtonD.C.is also a leading city for green roofswith over 92,000 square meters of green rooftops.The city also launched a program called “Skip the BagSave the River.”Stores charge people a five­cent  tax for using plastic or paper shopping bags instead of reusable bags.Money from the tax will be used to clean up a local river.

New York City is using water as a renewable energy source.For several years, the city has experimented with water in the East River to create energy.Officials operating the program recently asked for permission to put into place 30 river turbine devices.

The people of Portland, Oregon are among the top recyclers in the nation.People living there recycle over half of the waste they throw out.The city has also worked to provide green transportation by providing safe bike paths and free parking spaces where electric cars can get recharged.

In Oakland, California, you can ride on one of several public hydrogen­powered(氢气作燃料的) buses.These buses release zero pollution into the air.Howeverthey cost about five times more than common buses.

In a moment of personal crisis, how much help can you expect from a New York taxi driver? I began studying this question and answers are interesting.

One morning, I got into three different taxis and announced“Wellit's my first day back in New York in seven years.I've been in prison.”Not a single driver repliedso I tried again.“YeahI shot a man in Reno.”I explained, hoping the driver would ask me why, but nobody asked.The only response came from a Ghanaian driver“Reno? That is in Nevada

Taxi drivers were uniform sympathetic when I said I'd just been fired.“This is America”a Haitian driver said.“One door is closed.Another is open.”He argued against my plan to burn down my boss' s house.A Pakistani driver even turned down a chance to profit from my loss of hopehe refused to take me to the middle of the George Washington Bridge—a $20 trip.“Why do you want to go there? Go home and relax.Don't worry.Take a new job.”

One very hot weekday in July, while wearing a red ski mask and holding a stuffed pillowcase with the word “BANK” on it, I tried calling a taxi five times outside different banks.The driver picked me up every time.My ride with a Haitian driver was typical of the superb assistance I received.

“Let's go across the park” I said.“I just robbed the bank there.I got $25,000.”

“$25,000” he asked.

“Yeahyou think it was wrong to take it

“No, man.I work 8 hours and I don't make almost $70.If I can do thatI will do it too.”

As we approached 86th and Lexington, I pointed to the Chemical Bank.

“Heythere is another bank”I said“Could you wait here a minute while I go inside

“NoI can't wait.Pay me now.” His unwillingness may have had something to do with money—taxi drivers think the rate for waiting time is too low—but I think he wanted me to learn that even a bank robber can't expect unconditional support.

1.From the Ghanaian driver's response, we can infer that________.

Ahe was afraid of the author

Bhe thought the author was crazy

Che looked down upon the author

Dhe was indifferent to the killing

2.Why did the Pakistani driver refuse to take the author to the middle of the George Washington Bridge?

A. Because he was able to help the author to find a new job.

BBecause he wanted to go home and relax.

CBecause he thought that the author would commit suicide.

DBecause it was far away from his home.

3.In the author's opinion, the driver's unwillingness to wait outside the Chemical Bank indicates________.

Athe driver thought it wrong to support a taxi rider unconditionally

Bthe driver was frightened and wanted to leave him as soon as possible

Cthe driver did not want to help a suspect to escape from a bank robbery

Dthe driver thought that the rate for waiting time was too low
