    Every new person added to the planet needs food, water, clothes, and so on.1. Those things require extra natural resources，including land and water. But Earth’s riches are limited. Less than 1 percent of Earths water can be used for drinking and washing. One out of every thirteen people around the world does not always have enough clean water. 2..Too many people are using too much water, especially in the already dry areas of the southwestern United States.

Food shortages(不足)are even more common. Worldwide, one out of every seven people does not get enough to eat. 3.. Over time, the soil loses its nutrients (营养）and the farmland becomes useless for growing food. As the world becomes more crowded (拥挤的）， more land is needed to make way for growing cities.4..

The buildup of carbon dioxide traps heat and pollution above Earth.

    The evening arrived; the boys took their places. The master, in his cooled uniform, stood at the table; his poor helpers were behind him; the gruel (稀粥) was served out; and after they spoke to God to give thanks, there was little time left to eat. The gruel disappeared immediately; the boys whispered each other, and encouraged Oliver to ask for more. Oliver was very hungry and decided to take a risk. He rose from the table; and went to the master, plate and spoon in hand, said:

“Please, sir, I want some more.”

①

The master was a fat, healthy man; but he turned very pale. He looked at Oliver in great surprise for some seconds, and nearly fell but for the support to the table. The helpers were frozen with wonder; the boys with fear.

“What!” said the master at last, in a confused voice.

“Please，sir,” replied Oliver，“I want some more.”

“He did，sir，”replied Bumble.

“That boy will be hung，” said the gentleman in white. “I know that boy will be hung.”

Nobody was against the gentleman’s opinion. A heated discussion took place. Oliver was put in a cold, dark room and no boys were allowed to talk to him; and a bill was next morning pasted on the outside of the gate, offering a reward of five pounds to anybody who would take Oliver Twist off the hands of the parish (教区).In other words, five pounds and Oliver Twist were offered to any man or woman who wanted an apprentice to any trade，business, or calling.

    Years ago parents worried their children would learn the truth about Santa Claus(圣诞老人)from others, but now they have a new problem—the Internet.

A recent study from Hide My Ass! Shows 1 in 8 American parents said the Internet told their children the truth about Santa Claus. 44% of parents thought Google was a danger to this Christmas story, as children searched for Santa and found pages explaining he is not real. About 34 percent of children questioned Santa Claus after seeing ads online for gifts they had asked for in their letters to the North Pole (北极). Sadly，one in three children said their Christmas spirit was dead after reading a post saying Santa wasn’t real.

Before the Internet, the only way children found out their parents bought their gifts was if they were in a bad hiding place. Today, two-thirds of parents never clear their browser (浏览器) history, making it easy for kids to find out the gifts under the tree weren't put there by a happy man and his little helpers.

To keep Mr. Claus alive, “Keep Believing in Santa”, an organization created by Hide My Ass!, helps kids believe in Santa. Parents receive free software from the organization that monitors all online search results and web pages that could tell kids the truth about the man who lives in the North Pole, by hiding any information that may suggest he doesn't exist.

However, there is still a higher possibility of the Internet now being the main cause of a child's belief in Santa ending, and it can also result in kids finding out sooner than for those born before the digital age.

''With this organization, we wanted to give parents a new tool that would allow them to keep the magic of Christmas and the mystery of Santa for that little bit longer,” Cian  Mckenna-Charley, marketing director at Hide My Ass!.

1.What does the underlined word “questioned” in paragraph 2 mean?

A. doubted B. described

C. dismissed D. discouraged

2.“Keep Believing in Santa" is created to           .

A. make Santa Claus as real a man as possible

B. help parents keep the mystery of Santa Claus

C. tell stories about Santa Claus for younger kids

D. stop children from surfing the Internet too much

3.Which statement does Cian Mckenna-Charley probably agree with?

A. Parents must clear their browser history.

B. Santa Claus always lives in the North Pole.

C. Christmas spirit can be kept a little bit longer.

D. Gifts are put by Santa under the Christmas tree.

4.What is the main idea of the text?

A. Christmas is boring without Santa Claus.

B. Parents make efforts to protect Santa Claus.

C. The Internet is a new danger to Santa Claus.

D. Many children find the secret of Santa Claus

    Sweat (汗水）rail its way down my cheek. It was hot，but the air was still and wet. One final play and the State Softball Championship was ours.

I looked towards people who were watching the game. Sure enough, I found my mom. I always wished my dad were here. The farm needed his full attention, but I did not care.

I needed to start work on 11 o’clock that morning. As a usual, I went back to my office at about 10:30. The mall was almost empty at this time. While walked down the aisle, I suddenly heard the sound of a car engine. It was strangely because no vehicles were allowed enter the mall. The car stopped just outside a jewellery shop and out jump a few masked men, all armed with weapons. I did not hesitate and called the police using my mobile phone. Before that, I just stood aside while watching the robbers finish his job. The police came just in time outside the mall. There was a crash when the robber escaped.

Unfortunately, they were all arrested by the police.

    1. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how:

Plan your time carefully. When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First, time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then, decide a good, regular time for studying. 2. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you realize what is happening to your time.

Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a comer of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television. When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.

Make good use of your time in class. 3. Listening carefully in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.

Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes, review the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material. 4.. If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you’ll remember it longer.

Develop a good attitude towards tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be over worried.

    Andrew Jackson has been sitting pretty on the $20 bill for 87 years. Is it time to bring some new blood to the banknote?

The non-profit organization called Women on 20s is campaigning to put a woman’s face on American money. Barbara Ortiz Howard, the company’s founder, would like to see a woman on the $20 bill by 2020.That year marks the 100-year anniversary of the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution, which gave women the right to vote.

Howard got the idea when she realized that her daughter had no everyday reminders of famous women in history. She asked her friend Susan Ades Stone, a journalist, to join her cause. “Part of the aim is to educate as many people as possible about as many women as possible,” Ades says. “We want to see how many people we can reach.”

American money values the successes of former presidents and founding fathers. Currently, there are only two women on money: Susan B. Anthony is the face of the rare dollar coin, and Sacagawea can be seen on the gold dollar coin. There are no women on paper bills.

With help from writers and historians, Howard and Stone came up with a voting list featuring 15 important women. Ades says there is a standard for choosing candidates. They look at the women’s contributions to our world, and at what challenges they faced.

More than 72,000 people have voted so far in the poll. Ades says the competition has narrowed to a “very close race”, but won’t say who’s in the lead. After two rounds of voting, Women on 20s will send their campaign to the White House for consideration. The final decision is up to the Treasury Secretary, Jack Lew. Lew is unlikely to make a change without the president’s approval. But last year, when a little girl asked the president why there aren’t any women on US currency, he said that adding a woman is a “pretty good idea”.

1.When did American women begin to enjoy voting rights?

A. In the 1920s.    B. In the 19th century.

C. Fewer than 20 years ago.    D. More than 200 years ago.

2.We can know from the text that ________.

A. Howard and Stone decided the voting list on their own

B. Howard’s idea has something to do with her daughter

C. so far no American women have appeared on coins

D. former presidents rule American money

3.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A. Ades has announced the victor of the voting.

B. It’s impossible for Jack Lew to make a change.

C. The president will probably support such a change.

D. The final decision is due to be made by the president.

4.What can be the best title of the text?

A. The future faces of money

B. Different faces chosen on money

C. Constant changes in money faces

D. A campaign for women’s faces on money

Kids are cool to wear blue jeans and T-shirts today. It is fashionable like that. Fashion refers to the styles of dress that are currently popular. Fashion goes beyond just clothes, though. It’s important for some people to wear only the latest fashions and styles. For others, though, keeping up with trends isn’t that important. The one thing that stays the same with fashion is this: it always changes!

During the 1960s and 1970s, Hippies made bell-bottomed blue jeans (喇叭裤) popular. Also, in the 1980s, Michael Jackson made parachute pants (降落伞裤)all the fashion. Now try to find these items in today’s clothing stores!

Do you know why fashions change? The answer is probably as simple as the fact that people change. Over time, the new replaces the old People are influenced greatly by popular culture, including athletes, musicians, movies stars, as well as popular films, television shows, books and music. We are also influenced by the fashion industry’s advertising.

The stars of popular culture are always searching for a new angle to maintain (保持) their popularity. Often these new angles come in the form of new clothing or hairstyles. When people see these new styles, they often want to imitate (模仿) their favorite stars. To do so, they seek out the latest fashions to make themselves look like the people they want to imitate. In this way, fashions evolve and change over time.

Clothes have been used to separate people into groups for many years. Even today, brand-name, clothing that is more expensive than other types of clothing can be used by some people to make themselves different from others.

Unfortunately, this can often have the effect of distancing certain groups from others. Don’t forget that it’s always OK to develop your own sense of style that is unique and separate from what the fashion world determines! Stay true to yourself and let your personality - not your clothes - speak for who you are!

B. Stars are always influential.

C. People have different dressing styles.

D. Hippies and Michael Jackson are good designers.

2.What causes the changes of fashions?

A. Advertisements change rapidly.

B. Popular culture influences people.

C. Movie stars are changing over time.

D. New films and shows replace the old.

3.We can learn from the text that ________.

B. the author has gone out of fashion.

C. clothes may separate and distance people.

D. people like imitate others, dressing style.

Trees are useful to man in three very important ways: they provide him wood and other products; they give him shade; and they help to prevent drought (干旱) and floods.

Unfortunately, in many parts of the world, man has not realized that the third of these services is the most important. In his eagerness to draw quick profit from the trees, he has cut them down in large numbers.

Two thousand years ago, a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships, with which to gain itself an empire. It gained the empire but, without its trees, its soil became bare and poor. When the empire fell to pieces, the country found itself faced by floods and starvation.

Even where a government realizes the importance of a plentiful supply of trees, it is difficult sometimes to make the people realize this. They cut down the trees but are too careless to plant and look after new trees. So unless the government has a good system of control, or can educate the people, the forests slowly disappear.

This does not only mean that there will be fewer trees. The results are even more serious: for where there are trees, their roots break the soil up, allowing the rain to sink in, and also bind the soil. This prevents the soil from being washed away. But where there are no trees, the rainfalls on hard ground and flows away on the surface, and this causes floods and the rain carries away the rich top soil in which crops grow. When all the top soil is gone, nothing remains but worthless desert.

1.Trees are useful to man mainly in three ways, the most important of which is that they can    ________.

A. keep him from the hot sunshine    B. protect him from droughts and floods

C. make him draw quick profit from them    D. enable him to build warships

2.It’s a great pity that ________.

A. man hasn’t realized the importance of trees to him
