If you want to get the most out of the study of a language, you must also read for pleasure: novels, plays, travel books, and so on. And in reading books of this kind the important thing is to get on with the reading; to try to grasp what the writer is going to tell you in the book as a whole. This is impossible if you stop and think over the meaning of every single word which happens to be unfamiliar(不熟悉). You can not enjoy a story if you stop half a dozen times on every page in order to look up words in the dictionary. You may even prevent yourself from understanding the story as a whole by doing this.
When you are reading books of this kind, therefore, you will usually have to rely mainly on(依靠) the context (上下文) to help you. If you meet an unfamiliar word, do not let it take too much of your attention from the main thread(主線) of the story. In all probability(可能) you will meet the same word again a few pages later on in a slightly different context, and each time you see it that your understanding of it will become more exact.
小題1:To read for pleasure means _____________.
A．to take pleasure in reading
B．to be satisfied in reading book
C．to read such books as novels, plays, travel books, etc
D．to go on with reading pleasantly
小題2:The phrase “to get on with reading” in the passage has the same meaning as “_________”.
A．to try to grasp the meaning of every sentence in the book
B．to try to catch the meaning of every word in the book
C．to try to understand all the writer is going to tell you
D．to try to understand the main idea of the book
小題3:、When you meet new words in reading such kinds of books, you’d better _________.
A．stop and look them up in a dictionaryB．stop and think them over
C．try to guess their meanings from the context D．have none of them
小題4:According to the passage the best way to read novels, plays and travel books is _____.
A．to read very slowlyB．to read quickly and not too carefully

A new factory that turns used wine bottles into green sand could revolutionize the recycling industry and help to filter（過濾）the nation's drinking water.
For the last 100 years special high grade white sand quarried（開采）at Leighton Buzzard in Bedfordshire has been used to filter tap water to remove bacteria and impurities—but this may no longer be necessary.
The green sand has already been successfully tested by water companies and is being used in 50 swimming pools in Scotland to keep the water clean.
Backed by one million pounds from the European Union and the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs(Defar),a company based in Scotland is building a factory to turn beverage bottles back into the sand from which they were made.
The idea is not only to avoid using up increasingly scarce sand in Scotland and avoid any further quarrying but also to solve a crisis in the recycles only 750 000 tones of it.
Howard Dryden, the scientist and managing director of the company has spent six years working on what he calls Active Filtration Meadia, or AFM, the recycled glass. He says he needs bottles that have already contained drinkable liquids to be sure that drinking water would not be polluted.
"The fact is that tests show that AFM does the job better than glass, it is easier to clean and reuse and has all sorts of properties that make it ideal for other applications, "he claimed. He also thinks the market will be able to take 250 000 tones of green sand a year. The plan is to build five or six factories in cites in UK where the bottles come from to cut down on transport.
The factory will be completed this month and is expected to go into full production on January 14 next year. Once it is providing a "regular" product, the government's drinking water inspectorate will be asked to perform tests and approve it for general use by water companies.
小題1:It may no longer be necessary to use high-grade white sand to keep water clean because_____.
A．there is no need to keep water clean
B．A new factory has been set up
C．The green sand has been used to keep the water clean
D．White sand is being use up
小題2:According to the passage ,the new idea can do the following except_____.
A．avoiding using up increasingly scarce sand
B．avoiding further quarrying of white sand
C．solving the crisis in the recycling industry
D．cutting down the cost on transport
小題3:Tests show that ______ in keeping the water clean.
A．AFM is more efficient than white sand
B．AFM is more efficient than glass
C．glass is more efficient than AFM
D．white sand is more efficient than green sand
小題4:The underlined word "Backed" in the third paragraph can best be replaced by"_____".
A．AllowedB．Opposed
C．SupportedD．Forbidden
小題5:What would be the best title for the passage?
A．Revolution in the Recycling for the Industry.
B．Modern Technology an New Markets.
C．Revolution in Environmental Protection.
D．Unlocking the Benefits of Green Sand.

The market investigation is indispensable to sales promotion. They are as closely related as the lips and teeth, so to speak. What you produce is for sale on the market. It would be impossible to succeed in selling a product without first investigating the market.
In the international market, goods on sale coming from different countries and suppliers are always facing keen competition. Under such circumstances, they will try everything possible to familiarize themselves with the market conditions. In making investigations, we ought to get information about what similar items the competitors are offering on the market, what prices they are quoting（報價）, what features their products have, who are their regular customers, etc. Then, how can we obtain such information? There are many channels that we can make use of in doing this sort of work. The commercial counselor's offices of our embassies stationed abroad can help us in making market investigations. Nowadays, our import and export corporations send their trade groups abroad every now and then. One of their purposes is to make market surveys on the spot.
Certainly, face-to-face talks with foreign businessmen are also important channels to get market information. The Chinese Export Commodities Fairs and some other fairs of similar nature as well as visits of foreign businessmen provide us with such opportunities. Of course, there are some other ways of making market investigations.
小題1:In making market investigations, one should ______.
A．get enough information concernedB．advertise his products

The amount of carbon taken in by growing plants increased from 1982 through 1999 as
temperatures rose and the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increased. But a new study
in Friday ’ s edition of the journal Science found a drought - related decline in such plant growth
from 2000 to 2009，even though temperatures continued to climb.
As drought caused by warming reduces the land ’ s ability to take in carbon，the result could
be more carbon dioxide left in the atmosphere，and thus more warming，Zhao Maosheng from the
University of Montana explained in a telephone interview.
“This is a pretty serious warning that warmer temperatures are not going to endlessly improve
plant growth ’” co - author Steven Running，also from the University of Montana ’ said in a
statement. “ We see this as a bit of a surprise，and potentially significant on a policy level because
previous interpretations suggested global warming might actually help plant growth around the
world, “ he said.
Instead, he and Zhao found a small but measurable decline of about 1%，compared to a6%
increase in the past decade.
Their study，based on the data collected by NASA satellites，found that north areas continued
to increase plant growth，thanks to warmer temperatures and a longer growing season.
Someone commented, "This past decade’ s net decline in earthly productivity suggests that a
complex relationship between temperature, rainfall, cloudiness, and carbon dioxide, probably in
combination with other factors such as nutrients(營養(yǎng)）and land management，will determine
future patterns and trends in productivity.，，
小題1:From the first paragraph, we can learnin the recent decade or so.
A．the emission(排放)of carbon hasn’ t been reduced
B．draught has been causing loss of soil and water
C．carbon dioxide levels have been rising
D．the rise of temperature doesn' t promote the plant growth
小題2:Zhao Maosheng really worried that .
E.     more and more land will be abandoned
F.    the climate becomes warmer and warmer
G.   the emission of carbon dioxide increases
H.   draught further reduces the number of the plants
小題3:Steven Running made his statement to  .
I.      confirm Zhao' s views on the influence of temperature rise
J.     urge the government to take necessary measures
K.    warn the people to strengthen the plant protection
L.    support Zhao* s views on lhe plant production
小題4:We can infer from the passage that  .
A．global warming will determine the future productivity
B．various factors play a key role jointly on future productivity
C．earthly productivity actually increased in the past decade
D．temperature rise has had no effect on future producticity patterns

Matt grows the best vegetables in the village. He grows fruit too – big, sweet apples and oranges. And what else? Well, the biggest and the prettiest flowers.
Things grow in Matt’s garden all through the year. He cuts some flowers for his sitting room table; and of course , he eats some fruit and vegetables. But he sells everything else in the market. Matt is not a poor man.

He listens to music nearly all day!” and that is all quite true. People cannot understand it, and so they don’t like it very much.
Matt likes music. But what about the garden? Who does the work? I will tell you another true thing: the music does the work. All plants love music; and Matt knows that.
