          Many Americans have been leaving their cars at home and riding to work on bicycles. Andy Clark is the
    leader of the League of American Bicyclists. His group supports bicycling for fun, fitness and transportation.
          Clark says this is good news for the environment. He says riding a bicycle to work does not burn fossil
    fuel or creates dangerous pollutions. Experts say the effects are the most important on short trips. The
    Department of Transportation says fifty percent of Americans drive eight kilometers or fewer to work. Shorter
    car trips set out more pollution into the air for each kilometer drive. This is because the car engine will set out
    the harmful air when it warms up before it can work well. 
          James, a members of Congress (国会), is a strong supporter of bicycle use. He says cities, counties, state
    governments and state highway transportation agencies are planning the roadways of the future. They are
    creating roads and paths for bicycles in cities and between communities.
          Last year, Portland, the Pacific Northwest city in the state of Oregon, had the highest percentage of bicycle
    users in the United States. Portland has been doing progressive city planning for many years to create special
    paths for bike riders.

          Have you ever stayed in a hotel? Most Chinese hotels often provide guests with things like disposable
    (一次性的) toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and slippers. Many guests like the idea because they don't have
    to bring their own. But, if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring your own things. Starting from June, some
    hotels in Beijing will no longer provide guests with these disposables. They want to ask people to use less
    disposable things.
          Many disposable things are made of plastic. People throw them away after only using them once. It is a
    waste of natural resources and is very bad for the environment. Do you know, one Chinese person makes as
    much as 400kg of waste a year! Most of that waste comes from disposable things. In Beijing, people throw
    away about 19,000 tons of plastic bags and 1,320 tons of plastic lunch bowls every year! Plastic can take
    between 100 and 400 years to break down. So the less plastic we throw out, the better. So, wherever you travel,
    bring your own things and use them again and again.
          Back at home and school, you can also do something to make our world a better place. Try to do these
    things in your daily life: Use cloth shopping bags, not plastic ones. After using a plastic bag, wash it out and let
    it dry. Then you can use it over and over again. Do not use paper cups. At your school canteen (食堂), use your
    own bowl and chopsticks instead of disposable ones.
    1. Why do many hotels provide guests with some disposable things?
    [     ]
    A. Let their guests be convenient during their travelling.
    B. Hope their guests use less disposable things.
    C. Wish their guests to save money.
    D. Want their guests to use more disposable things.
    2. Some Beijing hotels will no longer provide guests with            .
    [     ]
    A. cheap food and drink
    B. disposable things
    C. good service
    D. free TV programmes
    3. Which of the following is NOT true?
    [     ]
    A. Many disposable things are made of plastic.
    B. Throwing disposable things away is a waste of natural resources.
    C. Plastic is very bad for the environment.
    D. Plastic breaks down easily.
    4. What can we do to make our world a better place at home and school?
    [     ]
    A. Use shopping bags made of plastic.
    B. Do not throw away paper cups.
    C. Use disposable plates, bowls and chopsticks.
    D. Do not forget to reuse daily necessities.
    5. We can tell from the story that            .
    [     ]
    A. people don't like disposable things at all
    B. we can't use paper or plastic bowls at school
    C. we should use less plastic things and protect our environment
    D. hotels won't provide disposable things because they want to save money
  • 阅读短文,选择正确答案。
          Height is just one of the thousands of features your genes (基因) decide. In fact, because you have two
    parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent. If
    both your parents are tall, then most probably you will be tall, too, but if you have questions about how tall
    you're going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find it out.
          But genes don't decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to
    your full potential (潜力). Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height.
          No doubt you're wondering how fast you should grow. It depends. There's no perfect or right answer.
    Generally speaking, kids grow about 2 inches (6 centimeters) a year between age 3 and the time when they start
    puberty (when your body starts changing and becoming more grown up). 
         Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years. Two centimeters here and 2 inches
    there are not nearly as important as the height you're at now, how you've been growing up to this point, and
    what other changes your body may be going through. 
         Don't be scared if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time. Everyone has a growth spurt (高峰)
    during puberty. The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys. But it can be earlier or
    later — between 7 and 13 for girls and 9 and 15 for boys.
         You'll usually begin to notice that you're growing faster about a year or so after your body starts to show
    the first changes of puberty.
    1. The Chinese for the word "puberty" is _____.
    [     ]
    A. 童年时期
    B. 婴幼儿时期
    C. 习惯养成期
    D. 生长发育期
    2. If you want to know how fast and how tall you should grow, _____.
    [     ]
    A. you should have enough exercise
    B. you can ask doctors for help
    C. you should save the environment
    D. You can record your growth during puberty
    3. This passage is mainly about ______.
    [     ]
    A. how the genes work in your body
    B. when is the time you grow fast
    C. why you look like your parents
    D. how you grow to a certain height
    4. After reading this passage, we can explain ______.
    [     ]
    A. how good it is to be a doctor
    B. how much sleep time we need
    C. why genes can't decide everything
    D. what healthy diet is
    5. Which is NOT mentioned in the passage?
    [     ]
    A. Your height most probably depends on how high your parents are.
    B. Girls' age for starting puberty is usually earlier than that for boys'.
    C. The time showing the first changes of puberty is never noticed.
    D. You may be scared sometimes when you grow too fast.
