A

Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today. People didn't have modern machines. There was no modern medicine, either.

Life today has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution. It's bad to all living things in the world.

All polluted air from cars, planes and factories is so thick that it is like a quilt over a city. This kind of quilt is called smog.

Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. Factories must now clean their water before it is thrown away. And they mustn't blow dirty smoke into the air.

We need to do many other things. We can put waste things in the dustbin and not throw it on the ground. We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car. If there are fewer people driving, there will be less. pollution. Rules are not enough. Every person must help to fight pollution.

41. Hundreds of years ago , life was much harder than it is today because .

A. there were less modern machines at that time than today

B. people didn't like to use modern medicines

C. there was no modern machines at all

D. there were not so many people

42. What is the biggest problem in today's life?

A. Dirty water. B. Smog. C. Noise. D. Pollution.

43. The most serious kind of pollution is .

A. noise pollution B. air pollution

C. water pollution D. from waste things

44. Factories must clean water .

A. before they use it B. when they use it

C. after it is thrown away D. before it is thrown away

45. From the passage we know that .

A. a few years ago , there was no smog at all

B. today people don't have to talk to each other in a loud voice

C. we can drink water from the polluted rivers and lakes

D. people are making rules in order to fight pollution

B

Nowadays, global warming becomes an old word in our life. We often listen to it over the radio, on TV or read it in the newspaper and on the Internet. Global warming means the temperature of the Earth is getting higher and higher. If the Earth gets hotter, some of the following things could happen:

● The sea level could rise because of the melting of sea ice.

● Many animals that live on the ice might die out.

● There could be more floods, especially near the sea and rivers.

● Some plants and animals might die because they cannot live in high temperatures.

Global warming is a very serious problem now. Fortunately, there is still something we can do to help to slow it down.

Scientists have been studying global warming for years. They have found that some things that people do in everyday life make much gas that causes global warming. One big cause of this is the burning of oil, gas and coal for energy for our cars and homes. This gives off too much greenhouse gas. We can do something to cut down on the amount of greenhouse gas:

● We can really help by using less energy in our homes and schools, and less gas in our family cars. We should turn off lights and turn down other electrical equipment. We should walk more and drive cars less.

● Forests can take in some of the greenhouse gas, so we should plant more trees.

46. What does "global warming" mean?

A. It means the weather of the Earth is getting worse and worse.

B. It means the temperature of the Earth is getting higher and higher.

C. It means the environment is getting better and better.

D. It means the Earth is getting larger and larger.

47. What will happen if the Earth gets hotter?

A. The sea level could set down.

B. Many animals that live on the ice might be in danger.

C. All the plants may grow well.

D. Some animals can't find anything to eat.

48. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The sea ice becomes a lot more because of the weather.

B. There could be fewer floods because of global warming.

C. We could do nothing to slow down global warming.

D. The writer wants to tell us to cut down on the amount of greenhouse gas.

49. What does the underlined word "cause" mean?

A. 结果 B. 环境 C. 原因 D. 成果

50. The best title for the passage is probably .

A. Protecting the Environment B. Save Plants and Animals

C. Global Warming D. Getting Rid of Greenhouse Gas

C

Noise pollution is doing much harm to our health now. Noise, in fact, is unwanted sound and is a kind of invisible(看不见的) killer. More and more students enjoy listening to music very much. When they listen to MP3 players, they like to turn up the volume(音量). Some people love listening to loud music. Furthermore, while watching TV, they keep the volume up. But they haven't realized that the noise is weakening their hearing. In fact, the noise not only influences each member in the family, but also makes a difference to the comfort of neighbors.

Noise pollution is a source of increasing misery(痛苦) to people in our society. If people are often disturbed by it, they may feel uncomfortable or upset. What's worse, the noise can make people mad sometimes. If a worker works in a printing factory too long, his/her hearing loss is much greater than a common person working in a quieter environment. So everybody must pay more attention to noise pollution. Generally speaking, the following four types of noise should be watched out for:

● Noise in the street

● Construction site (建筑工地) noise

● Noise at work

● Transportation noise

I think the local environmental protecting department(部门) should take measures to control the noise levels, and it's everybody's duty to keep a quiet environment.

51. Why is noise called a kind of invisible killer?

A. Because we can't see it with our own eyes.

B. Because it's really harmful to our health, but people don't realize it.

C. Because it often causes people to die.

D. Because it has no direct effect on humans.

52. What do the underlined words "makes a difference to" mean?

A. influences B. produces C. refers D. provides

53. Noise pollution may not make people feel .

A. uncomfortable B. upset C. mad D. pleased

54. Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. Listening to MP3 players too loud may do some harm to your hearing.

B. Noise is a kind of unwanted sound.

C. We needn't watch out for the construction site noise.

D. Everybody has a duty to keep a quiet environment.

55. What's the best title for the passage?

A. Kinds of Pollution B. The Harm of Noise Pollution

C. Hearing Loss D. Our Health

I only buy writing paper and notebooks made from recycled paper. And when I buy something made of wood, like a wooden table, I'll make sure that the wood comes from a forest where they plant new trees.

I'm an artist, and I enjoy recycled art. They are things make out of rubbish-like this model plane made from old containers. In fact, I hate throwing things away. I even keep my old woolen clothes and cotton handkerchiefs and use them for cleaning.

11:35 Ms. Nelson, a policewoman

I'm careful not to waste electricity. For example, I always turn the lights off when I leave a room. And I don't have the TV on when I'm not watching it.

12:00 Mr. Parks, a doctor

I take my empty bottles, jars, and anything else made of glass to recycling center every week. I try not to buy plastic bottles because you can't recycle most kinds of plastic.

听第一篇短文，回答第13-15小题。

Different countries and people have different manners. Here are some examples. If you visit a Chinese family, you should knock at the door first. When the door opens, you should not move before the host says "Come in, please". Before coming into a house in Japan, it is good manners to take off your shoes. In European countries, even if your shoes are very dirty, this is not done. In England, guests always finish the drink or the food to show that they enjoy it. This will make the host very pleased.

听第二篇短文，回答第16-20小题。

Two years ago my husband bought me a bicycle. If you live in a town, it is often faster than a car and you don't have to worry about parking. You can leave it in any place you like. As it has a seat at the back and a basket at the front, I can take my little daughter to school and the library, and I can go shopping to any place in fact. I use it most in summer when the weather is warm and dry. It can be very unpleasant in winter because the weather is cold and rainy. My husband uses my bicycle sometimes for a visit to his friend. He is not good at riding a bicycle, but he says it is better than waiting for a bus. He still likes his car best. I think all day sitting down in a car is making him fatter and fatter. On my bicycle I get a lot of exercise and fresh air, and riding makes me feel a lot younger.
