How green are you? Do you care about protecting the environment and saving energy? We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our environment. Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you. Remember these three words: Reduce, reuse and recycle.
REDUCE
Reduce means “use less.” Don’t waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new, think whether it is really necessary--- or maybe the old one will be just as good! When we do buy things, choose local produces if possible, and try not to buy too many things form abroad. It may cost a lot of money to bring them to us.
REUSE
Reuse means “use again.” Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time. We should look after them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don’t use a paper cup or a paper bag. It’s better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.
RECYCLE
Recycle means “change things into something else.” Although it takes energy to change something into something else, it’s better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your neighbourhood and take part in recycling programmes. We should also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.
小題1:Why is it better to choose local products if possible?
A.Things from abroad do harm to our environment
B.Local products are much cheaper
C.To choose local products means that we love our country
D.Things from abroad aren’t necessary
小題2:According to the passage, when we find our clothes are out of fashion, what should we do?
A.Throw them away
B.If they are still suitable, keep them
C.Clean the floor with them
D.Give them to others and buy new ones
小題3:What is the helpful activity in our daily life?
A.To shop with plastic bags
B.To use paper cups
C.To collect old newspapers
D.To burn fallen leaves
小題4:According to the passage, which of the following is RIGHT?
A.We should learn to grow vegetables
B.People mustn’t produce waste any more
C.Children are too young to do anything to save energy.
D.The simplest everyday activities are important to protect our world.
小題5:Which of the following is WRONG according to this passage?
A.Always buy new things and throw away old ones
B.Use china cups instead of paper cups
C.Recycle something that can be recycled
D.Think first when we want to buy something

小題1:B
小題2:B

“I had a Welsh speaking test. I'd had to memorize a paragraph in front of the whole class. I just couldn’t do it,” says 13-year-old Mary. “I pretended to be ill.” But Mary did not enjoy her day off. “I watched TV all day — it was boring. I wished I had gone to school.”
Mary’s story is not unusual in Britain. According to the latest government figures, pupil absences are rising, despite schools taking a hard line on truancy (逃學(xué)).
Philippa James, a PhD researcher at Cardiff University’s school of social sciences, thinks she knows why: “The more schools improve methods of detection(檢查), the more children work out better methods of deception.” Teenagers told her it was now harder to skip a single lesson, so they’d miss whole days to avoid being caught.
For several years, James has researched student truancy of 60 teenagers, aged 13 and 14, including Mary, to see how the teenagers truant, for how long, and why.
Through online conversations and face-to-face interviews, she discovered that most truancy was “a response to factors within the school”. Truants are not necessarily less advanced or less intelligent. They complained of teachers who failed to engage them, and of “boring” lessons. “Many truants really enjoy school and believe in education, but drop out when aspects of it were ineffective.” James says.
The views of students like Adam, who believes that skipping lessons has little impact on his schooling, were common. “I only take-off for a lesson, or a couple of days. It doesn’t affect my education,” he told James.
James’ study concludes that schools need to address the question of why pupils want to leave in the first place. “Pupils need help from the start.” she says. “It’s a two-way process – schools must be responsive. We need to look at the reasons for truancy rather than the number, so that instead of walking away from school, students have the skills and chances to talk through problems and make a change.”
小題1:What is one of the reasons for school truancy according to James’ study?
A.Truants are fallen behind in their studies.
B.Truants have no interest in school subjects.
C.Truants have more interesting things to do.
D.Truants are not satisfied with the teachers.
小題2:The underlined phrase “taking a hard line” (paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to“        ”.
A.experiencing a problem withB.having a strict attitude towards
C.finding it difficult to solveD.having little success with
小題3: By citing Adam's remark, James wants to show that      .
A.school education is not efficient and needs improvement
B.it’s a popular belief that occasional truancy won't cause much harm
C.school truancy is becoming more serious and needs more concern
D.even good students may sometimes need a break from school
小題4: What is Philippa James’ suggestion to schools?
A.Schools should solve the problem of teachers.
B.Schools should be more active in helping beginner truants.
C.Schools should have a better control of hidden truants.
D.Schools should find out who truant and how they it.

In the most southern part of our planet, there’s a place that’s covered with snow and ice all year round. But it has the clearest and cleanest air. Amazingly, in this place, the sun sometimes hangs even in the midnight sky. This place is Antarctica (南極洲): the coldest, windiest and harshest (惡劣的) place on the Earth.

As the world’s least-known place, Antarctica is of great interest to scientists around the world. In 1983, China joined the Antarctic Treaty (《南極條約》). The treaty made Antarctica a peaceful place for member countries to do scientific research. During 30 years, China has sent many scientists to Antarctica. They mostly look at the resources under the icy land and do research about climate change and marine (海洋的) biology.
Antarctica is a place with fantastic views. However, life there is very hard. Food is one of the biggest problems. Frozen (速凍) food which can be heated easily is people’s daily food. Fresh vegetables are hard to grow in the cold weather. Therefore, scientists often eat dried or canned vegetables.
Sleep is also troublesome. In Antarctica, summer lasts from November to March. During this period, Antarctica points to the sun and receives sunlight 24 hours a day. In order to get some sleep, scientists cover the windows with black plastic cloth to create “night”.
Working in Antarctica is dangerous, especially when meeting gale-force (七級(jí)以上的) winds. Sometimes the wind is even stronger than a typhoon. It can easily blow people away. So there are ropes that connect buildings of some research stations. People can hold these ropes to keep their balance in forceful winds.
What’s more, communicating with others is difficult. Without cables and Internet in some research stations, two-way radios are the only tools to communicate. If people want to say hello to friends and relatives, they can use satellite phones.
Although it is challenging to work in Antarctica, scientists’ passion to learn about this mysterious land will never end. It is hopeful that one day they will step every corner of this icy land.
小題1:From Paragraph 1, we learn that the Antarctica ______.
A.is covered with snow and ice
B.rains heavily from time to time
C.has little wind most of the time
D.has sunshine during every night
小題2:Scientists from China go to Antarctica to _____.
A.find out ways to control water pollution
B.research climate change and marine biology
C.grow plants and vegetables in special condition
D.stop the hunters from killing the marine biology
小題3:In order to sleep well in Antarctica, the scientists have to _____.
A.wear more clothes to keep warm
B.cover the windows with black cloth
C.connect research stations with ropes
D.eat more fried and canned vegetables
小題4:We can replace (替換) the underlined word passion in the last paragraph with       .
A.strong love
B.full preparation
C.pleasant introduction
D.a(chǎn)mazing imagination
小題5:The passage is mainly about       .
A.view of the Antarctica
B.exploring the Antarctica
C.how to survive in the Antarctica
D.climate changes of the Antarctica

Most people will tell you that they can’t work without a cup of coffee in the morning. Research has shown that a cup of coffee does give a person slight excitement.

Legend said that Kaldi, an Ethiopian, found his goats happier while enjoying coffee plants. Curiously, he tasted the leaves and began to dance around. Whether the Legend was true or not, the discovery of coffee dates back to 800A. D. Soon Arabians were roasting coffee beans. Muslims were drinking coffee to stay awake by 1000 A.D. A merchant from Venice introduced coffee to Europe in 1615. By 1696, the Dutch started growing the coffee bush in Java. By 1723, coffee plants were introduced to the Americans. Today, coffee is the most popular drink in the world.
Caffeine is the major chemical in coffee. It blocks(阻止) adenosine, a chemical that makes you sleepy. People can get a pick-me-up or stimulation(刺激) from the drink. The stimulation does not last long. Caffeine poisoning can occur if more than 400 milligrams of caffeine is drunk in a short period, which is about four to five cups of coffee. Caffeine will also cause sleep difficulty, so it should not be drunk before bed.
Caffeine has many advantages. Studies have shown that it helps improve some skills in elderly women. Women who drank three cups of coffee daily scored higher on memory tests than women who drank one cup of coffee. According to newser.com, one cup of coffee a day protects the brain. Coffee also can help people keep away from many diseases according to webmd.com.
Large amounts of coffee can cause nervousness, worries and a fast heartbeat. However, if you mix coffee with milk, it’s fine. Caffeine can be addictive like any drug. The more you drink, the more you depend on it. For some people, just one cup of coffee a day is OK.
小題1:Who found the most popular drink in the world according to the Legend?
A.An Ethiopian.B.Arabians.C.Muslims.D.The Dutch.
小題2:When was the coffee introduced to Europe?
A.In the 1710s.B.In the 1610s.C.In the 1690s.D.In the 1720s.

What will the weather be like in the future? Some people say they can know the weather from animals.
If birds are flying high in the sky, there will be a nice day. When they sit in trees or stay close together, bad weather is on the way. Ants often build their homes on the steep (陡峭的) side just before the rain comes. Cats like to clean their ears before the rain. Chickens make a loud noise and run here and there when the rain is coming. Frogs will stay in the water and make a lot of noise, too. But on a nice day, they are quiet and jump out of the water. Turtles (海龜) often look for higher ground and cows like to lie down when the rain is on the way.
