閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中,選出最佳選項。
I am a vegetarian(素食主義者).Many people are quick to think of vegetarianism as strange behavior.I treasure our Earth, and since we only have one, we should protect it and the wildlife that lives on it.But that’s only one of the reasons to be a vegetarian.
Vegetarians may live longer, healthier lives.There is a connection between red meat consumption and various diseases.From an economic standpoint, it requires less land, money and energy to produce foods for a vegetarian diet.While there are many benefits to being a vegetarian, only a handful of those who attempt to adopt this lifestyle succeed.
The most important quality required to be a vegetarian is firmness since surrounded by the temptation of meat, we tend to give up vegetarianism easily.Creativity is almost as important as commitment.It’s easy to tire of eating nothing but salad. But with a little creativity and some soy products, almost any meal can become vegetarian-friendly.
Not everyone wants to be vegetarian.Accepting this is part of being a vegetarian with style.Forcing your beliefs on others is disrespectful.Stylish vegetarians should also be able to turn down a meaty dish politely without annoying their hosts.
Being a successful vegetarian has been easy for me, but it may not be so for others.a(chǎn) common mistake is quitting before your body has adjusted to the change.It can be difficult to keep the lifestyle in the beginning because of temptation.However, it fades over time.Another common mistake is quitting because you’ve been misinformed about the nutritional wisdom of being a vegetarian.That’s why it is vital to be educateD. Countless people will tell you that it’s impossible to obtain the nutrients and protein(蛋白質(zhì))your body requires without meat, but they are incorrect.People actually need only 44-55 grams of protein a day, and that is easily found in a vegetarian diet.Many meat eaters are consuming three times that amount, which is not beneficial.It leads to diseases.Vegetables can also supply all the vitamins, minerals and nutrients your body needs.However, if you’re still not convinced, you can take a multi-vitamin.

It is important for countries to develop. Sometimes development can do more harm than good for a country. Therefore, this development needs to be different from past development, which polluted the environment and wasted natural resources. One possible solution to this problem now being discussed is sustainable development. It focuses on preserving the environment and natural resources. It is all about creating better health care, education, housing and improved standard of living for everyone. This is a simple idea, but one that is hard to put into practice. However, it is something that we must do, because without sustainable development our future and the lives of our children and our grandchildren will be in danger.
Nearly everything we do in our modern lives requires the use of the Earth’s natural resources. These natural resources provide the energy for many important things. The list is almost endless. For all these things, we mostly depend on fuels such as coal, gas and oil to produce energy. We are now consuming these fuels at a much higher rate than they are being produced. On top of this, burning these fuels produces carbon dioxide, which is harmful to the environment. This is why many people are pushing for the use of alternative energy sources.
Alternative energy sources can be used without running out. Some examples of the alternatives are solar energy, wind energy and hydroelectricity. As people are becoming more aware of the need to protect the environment, these types of energy are becoming more and more popular.
In many parts of the world, tentative(試驗性的) steps are being taken to introduce these forms of alternative energy. For example, some people in Nigeria are training to use solar power, and in Costa Rica, people are now using hydroelectricity to provide power for their small villages. The introduction of programmes like these will hopefully help end the systematic destruction of the environment and see alternative energy promoted around the world. This will mean good things for our future, our children’s future and our grandchildren’s future.
1.We know from the passage that sustainable development _________.
A. means to develop slowly
B. can bring little good to the people
C. has ended the environmental destruction
D. is an idea being discussed
2.It is important to preserve the natural resources because they _________.
A. consume the energy for important things
B. are running out
C. provide the energy for people to use
D. are being produced at a high rate
3. Hydroelectricity means ___________.
A. using the sun to provide electricity
B. using wind power to produce electricity
C. using water power to produce electricity
D. using water to protect the environment
4. What is the author’s attitude toward sustainable development?
A. Critical. B. Positive.
C. Tolerant. D. Doubtful.

Some people would go through anything just to achieve their dream. Kasia Siwosz is proof. For the final year student on the university women’s tennis team, the road to Berkeley, University of California was met with poor advice and misinformation from her home country and two unsuccessful stops along the way that fell short of expectations.
Born in Poland, Siwosz began playing tennis at seven years old and developed the skills that helped her earn a top-50 ranking among the ITF Junior division (國際網(wǎng)球聯(lián)會青少年賽).. Siwosz wanted to do more with her life than just play tennis, which led her to seek chances that would also allow her to obtain a top education. While most who grow up in the U.S. are naturally accustomed to the American tradition of collegiate sports, such a custom is not as familiar in a country like Poland. “There’s no collegiate sports in Poland and no culture of sports and academic study there. You can only do one, not both,” Siwosz said.
Her desire to have a quality education led her to America to follow her dream. While Siwosz was talented enough to begin her collegiate tennis career, she could only attend community college because she missed the deadline to apply to four-year schools, mainly due to misinformation provided in her home country of Poland.
When she had earned all her credits and was able to transfer, Siwosz made the decision to attend Baylor in Texas. Her friends from Poland put in a good word for the university, saying that it was a good fit because there were many international players at Baylor. “I thought it would be a good idea, but it really wasn’t what I thought it would be,” Siwosz said. “I wasn’t happy at Baylor. The level of tennis was high, but the academic standards were no match and I just wanted more.”
After one year at Baylor, Siwosz’s luck finally began to change when she made the decision to transfer to Berkeley, which was due in large part to Lee, a former Berkeley student. Lee, who is a keen tennis player himself, met Siwosz four years ago in Texas. “I knew she was unhappy there,” he said. “I saw the opportunity for her to come here.” Siwosz visited Lee in Berkeley. “I ended up loving this place and this school,” Siwosz said. “I came here a lot over the summer, I gave it a shot and I ended up with a Berkeley education and a spot on one of the best college tennis teams in the country.”
1.What does “two unsuccessful stops” (Paragraph 1) refer to?
A. Poland and the U.S.
B. Baylor and Berkeley.
C. The ITF Junior division and the Berkeley tennis team.
D. The community college and Baylor.
2.Why did Siwosz want to leave her homeland for America?
A. Poland had no culture of sports.
B. Berkeley had always been her dream university.
C. She wanted to play tennis and have a good education.
D. She wanted to improve her tennis skills and get a higher ranking.
3.What is the main idea of the passage?
A. How Siwosz realized her dream.
B. How Siwosz left Poland.
C. How Siwosz became a top tennis player.
D. How Siwosz transferred from Baylor to Berkeley.
