office buildings, shopping centers and other public places. One of

their aims is to make sure that these places have set their air conditioning (空调) no cooler than 26 ℃.

"If everyone sets their air conditioning at 26 ℃, Beijing will save 400 million kilowatt-hours of electricity in one summer. That's one-third of all the usage of the city in the season," said a TV advertisement.

Other Chinese cities, like Wuhan in Hubei Province and Yangzhou in Jiangsu Province, are going to follow Beijing's steps in setting up a similar police team.

From 1986 to 2005, China met 20 warm winters. It means that Chinese cities have to spend billions of yuan solving the environmental problems every year.

At the beginning of this month, China made its first action plan to fight pollution. It aims to reduce energy usage by 20％ and increase renewable energy up to 10％ from 7％ by 2010.

To introduce a green life to the public, Beijing also held a show on energy-saving technology and productions last week. It attracted lots of attention.

"We want to tell people that there are certain ways to protect the environment. Each of us can find right ways to do it in our daily lives," said Liu Qianguang, an environmental engineer in Beijing.

36. The job of the energy-saving policemen is ___________.

A. to set the air conditioning cooler

B. to check the use of energy in public places

C. to stop people using air conditioning

D. to make sure that more energy will be produced

37. Beijing will use ___________ million kilowatt-hours electricity in one summer.

A. 1200 B. 800 C. 400 D. 133

38. Which of the following years' winters were all warm in China?

A. 1984-1988. B. 1999-2003. C. 2002-2006. D. 2005-2009.

We humans live in different parts of the world, but we have the same ―mother‖. She gives us everything we need in our daily life. She is our Mother Earth.

April 22 is Earth Day. The theme of this year is ―Green Cities‖.

A green city is a healthy and pleasant place for people to live, according to the United Nations.

A green city can get its energy from sources like solar (太阳能的) and wind power.

Also, it is connected by clean public transportation. Moreover, a green city is made up of facilities (设施) that can save energy and reduce waste.

Around the world, many cities and countries have done well to build themselves in a green way. Chicago is well known for its green roof (屋顶) program. These roofs are covered with plants. The plants get a great amount of rainwater. Later, the water evaporates (蒸发) to help make the air cool and clean. So far, there are about 360 green roofs in Chicago, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency.

Curitiba, Brazil, has great transportation(运输). It opened the world’s first bus rapid transit (BRT) system in 1974. BRT runs on special lanes. This makes sure that buses are on time even in traffic jams. With the help of BRT, the city has the lowest level of air pollution in Brazil. Today, many other countries have copied BRT, including China and Mexico.

Singapore is home to the first zero-energy building in Southeast Asia. Zero energy means a building is able to create more energy than it uses. Zero-energy buildings work with solar panels (板) mainly on roofs. These panels can make electricity which powers the buildings. By 2030, Singapore plans to build 80 percent of its buildings like this.

41.What is a green city according to the United Nations?

A.A city with many green trees and flowers.

B.A green place for people to live.

C.A healthy and pleasant place for people to live.

D.A place is green for people to live.

42.The theme of Earth Day this year is ―‖.

A. Green Roofs B. Green Cities

C. Reducing and Recycling D. Environmental Protection

43.The underlined word ―regenerative‖ in Paragraph 3 means ―

A. getting terrible things and smells B. giving new life and freshness

C. reducing waste things D. producing old materials again

A. people are encouraged to grow plants on their roofs

B. special lanes (车道) are designed to solve traffic jams

C. people make good use of solar and wind energy

D. people are provided with a pleasant place to live

A. giving examples B. explaining reasons

C. listing suggestions D. showing different opinions

After my husband died, my world crashed around me. My six children were 10, nine, eight, six, three and 18 months, and I was overwhelmed(压垮) with the responsibilities(责任) of earning a living, caring for the children and simply I was lucky to find a wonderful housekeeper to care for the children during the week, but from Friday nights to Monday mornings, the children and I were alone, and frankly(坦诚地) I was uneasy. Every unusual noise or any late-night phone call filled me with fear. I felt really lonely. One Friday evening I came home from work to find a big beautiful German shepherd(牧羊犬) on our doorstep. It was obvious he wanted to make the house his home. The children took an instant（紧迫的） liking to "German" and begged me to let him in. I agreed to let him sleep in the

三、阅读理解阅读下列短文，根据短文内容选择最佳答案。（40 分）

In Lynch, an American businessman, had been going on vacation to a small Mexican fishing village for a number of years. One morning while going for a walk along the beach, he saw his box.

Martin noticed Pablo was smiling and looked very happy. He could also see several large fish

in the boat. Martin greeted Pablo and asked how long it took to catch the fish. “Just a new hours,” replied Pablo. Martin asked, “Why didn‟t you stay longer and catch more fish?” “I have enough for my family,” Pablo said. “And what do you do with the rest of your day ?” asked Martin. “I take a nap, play with my children, spend time with my wife, and go into the village to see my friends

and play cards. I have a full and busy life.” Martin explained that if Pablo worked longer hours and caught more fish, he could make more money. With the extra money, Pablo could buy more boats and catch many more fish. By selling the fish, Pablo could open his own factory and sell direct to supermarkets.

“Then what?” asked Pablo. “Well, you would probably have to move to Mexico City to run

the business. Finally, you would be able to sell your business and make millions of dollars,” replied Martin. “How long will that take ?” asked Pablo. Martin thought for a while and said it would probably take at least 15 years. “And then what?” asked Pablo.

“Well, that‟s the best part,” Martin said. “You will be able to retire, buy a house near the

ocean, sleep longer, play with your children, spend more time with your wife, see your friends, and play cards.”

(Renee-a beautiful princess; Broo-a blue bear; Nahloo-a magical place)

When the Princess Renee heard about Broo, she came down from her castle. She found Broo

while he was busy eating honey.

“Mr. Bear,” the Princess said, “you are welcome in Nahloo. Here we share with each other.

We don‟t take things from each other.”

Broo thought about it for a moment and realized that he had made a mistake. “Well,” he said, “maybe drinking all that milk wasn‟t the best idea.”

The Princess continued, “Mr. Bear, you can drink and eat, but you won‟t feel good because

you have never made any contribution to anyone else. I think you‟ll find that it is better to be full in your heart, not just in your stomach.” After saying this, the Princess went back to the castle, leaving Broo alone.

One day, Broo was going to take lots of cookies from the rabbits, then he remembered what

the Princess said to him. So Broo decided not to eat the cookies. The rabbits were surprised and said, “Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Bear. Now these cookies will taste sweeter because they are given by you, my friend. If you like, come back tomorrow and we can have the cookies together.”

Everything that humans hear is in the form of waves(波). Just as the eye sees light waves in

the form of colors, the ear hears sound waves in the form of noises. The ear and the eye turn these different waves into signals that the brain(大脑) can make sense of.

The ears and brain have an amazing ability to recognize(识别) particular sounds. For

example, a mother often can tell when her baby is crying even if there are other crying babies in the same room. This is because the sound of her baby‟s cry has special meaning to her and the brain has recorded its importance.

The ability to recognize sounds improves with experiences. As the brain receives information

about sounds from day to day, it stores the information in its memory. When the brain hears new sounds, it gives meaning to them based on the information already in the memory. This is why certain words or songs can make a person happy. Often it is not the words or songs themselves that cause this feeling. The sounds are connected to happy memories for that person.

Another hearing process controlled by the brain is to decide where a sound is coming from.

One ear is usually closer to the source(来源) of a sound than the other ear is. Sound waves are stronger when they reach the ear that is closer. They also reach the closer ear first. The brain recognizes these differences and uses them to decide the location of the source of the sound. 41.Which of the following shows the normal hearing process of a mother hearing her baby crying? a. The ears receive the sound waves. b. The mother recognizes her baby‟s cry. c. The baby‟s turn the sound waves into signals.

d. The baby‟s cry travels in the form of sound waves.

e. The brain connects the signals to the information in the memory.

A. d-a-c-b-e

B. d-a-c-e-b

C. a-d-c-b-e

D. a-d-c-e-b

42. Certain words or songs can change a person‟s moods mainly because of his _____.

A. lifestyle B. personality C. experiences D. hobbies 43. Why does a person feel happy when they hear some songs? A. Because certain words or songs can make a person happy. B. Because a person has the ability to recognize the sounds

C. Because the certain sounds are connected to happy memories for that person.

D. Because the person feel the song is special

44. According to the last paragraph, it will be the most difficult for a person who has lost the

hearing in one ear to tell ______. A. where the source of a sound is B. how loud a sound is

C. when a sound starts to appear

D. what makes a sound

45.What is the best title for this passage ? A. Human Brain‟s Amazing Facts B. Human Hearing Characteristics

C. How To Improve Hearing

D. How Do Humans Hear

Are you a gourmand(美食主义者)? Do you want to eat every delicious food in the world? Then do you watch the popular program?“A Bite of China(舌尖上的中国)” is a documentary on Chinese delicious food which has been broadcasted by Chinese central television. Is there any holiday that isn't celebrated with a special festival food? Here are several traditional Chinese foods:

Eggs hold a special meaning in many cultures, and China is no exception(例外). The Chinese believe eggs mean producing something new. After a baby is born, parents may hold a "red egg and ginger party," where they pass out eggs to announce the birth. In some areas of China the number of eggs represents the sex of the child, for example, an even number(1,3,5,---) for a girl, and an odd number(2,4,6---) if a boy has been born.

Noodles are a symbol of longlife in Chinese culture. They are as much a part of a Chinese birthday celebration as a birthday cake with lit candles is in many countries. Since noodles represent long life, it is considered very unlucky to cut it off.

Although westerners sometimes may be very sorry to see fish lying on a plate, in China a whole fish is a symbol of richness. In fact, at a party it is traditional to serve the whole fish last, pointed toward the valued guest. Fish also has a special meaning because the Chinese word for

fish, yu, sounds like the word for richness or plenty, and it is believed that eating fish will help your wishes come true in the year to come.

A very popular dish during the Dragon Boat Festival is Zongzi. This tasty dish is made of rice dumplings with meat, peanut or other delicious food in bamboo leaves. The tradition of Zongzi is meant to remind us of a great man, Qu Yuan.

The 50-minute program tries to bring something new by presenting more cultural elements(元素),such as eating habits and the quality of eating. 46. A bite of China is _______________.

A. a book B. a documentary C. a guide book D. a newspaper 47. How many kinds of traditional food are mentioned in the passage? A. two B. three C. four D. five

48. A girl has been born in Mr. Li‟s home. How many red eggs may he pass out to his friends according to Chinese tradition?

A. two eggs B. none C. three eggs D. six eggs 49. Which of the following is RIGHT according to the passage?

A. We can cut birthday noodles off in China if we think they are too long. B. It is impolite to server a whole fish last at a party in China. C. The program lasts for one hour.

D. There are many kinds of Zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival. 50. What does the writer mean in the last paragraph? A. The writer thinks the program is too long.

B. The writer thinks the program has more meanings inside than the story itself. C. The writer thinks everyone can have a good eating habit after watching the program. D. The writer thinks the program has brought many kinds of delicious food to us.
