Did you see snow in your hometown last winter? Did you feel it was warmer than before?" There have been 21 warm winters in China since 1986," said scientists. They also said that in the past 100 years, as the global (全球的) temperatures went up by 0.74 °C , the temperature in North China has climbed 1.4 °C in only 50 years. China needs to take quick action to cut carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) emission (排放),because it's the main reason for global warming. The good news is that China has seen the importance of going green. China set the goal of cutting energy use by 20 and pollution emission by 10 in the 11th Five-Year Plan Can you slow global warming? Sure! You and your family can take steps to cut the amount of carbon dioxide that is sent out into the air.

Here are some pieces of advice to help you save the earth. Wear used clothes. Wearing your brother's, sister's or dad's old T-shirt means you save the energy. Change your light bulbs (灯泡). Use energy-saving light bulbs. And don't forget to turn off the lights when you leave a room and turn off your television and computer when they are not in use! Ride the bus. Taking a bus saves a lot of oil every year. Say no to plastic bags. The next time your parents go to the market, ask them to use baskets。 Open a window. Don't use the air conditioner (空调), and let some fresh air in. When you have to use the conditioner, set the temperature higher in the summer and lower in the winter to save energy Make small changes in your daily life. Don't use paper cups, bags and boxes.

It's time for all of us to do something to save the earth.

Happiness is for everyone. You don't need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on Why？Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.

In fact，happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school，your friends will help you；when you study hard at your lessons，your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health；when you get success，your friends will say congratulations to you；when you do something wrong，people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others，you will feel happy，too. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them，you can see that happiness is always around you.

Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor，you can also say you are very happy，because you have something else that can't be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties，you can say loudly you are very happy，because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes，life is like a revolving(旋转的)door. When it closes，it also opens. If you take every chance you get，you can be a happy and lucky person.

5．Those who have big houses may often feel________.

A．happy                                      B．lonely

A．Oh，so do I.                           B．Congratulations!

C．Good luck!                              D．It's just so­so.

8．Which of the following is this passage about?

A．Bad luck.                                 B．Good luck.

C．Happiness.                               D．Life.

Eating too much fatty food, exercising too little and smoking can raise your 

future risk of heart disease. But there is another factor that can cause your heart 

problems more immediately: the air you breathe.

Previous studies have linked high exposure (暴露）to environmental pollution to an increased risk of heart problem, but two analyses now show that poor air quality can lead to heart attack or stroke (中风）within as little as a few hours after exposure.                 

In one review of the research, scientists found that people exposed to high levels of

pollutants (污染物)were up to 5% more likely to                                         suffer a heart attack within days of exposure than those with lower exposure. A 

separate study of stroke patients showed that even air that the U. S. Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA) considers to be of “moderate” (良好）quality and relatively safe for our health can raise the risk of stroke as much as 34% within 12 to 14 hours of exposure.

The authors of both studies stress that these risks are relatively small for healthy people and certainly modest compared with other risk factors such as smoking and 

high blood pressure. However, it is important to be aware of these dangers because

 everyone is exposed to air pollution regardless of lifestyle choices. So stricter regulation by the EPA of pollutants may not only improve environmental air quality but 

could also become necessary to protect public health.

9.The text mainly discusses the relationship between        .

A. heart problems and exercising     B. heart problems and fatty food 

C. heart problems and smoking     D.   heart problems and air quality

10.The underlined word “modest” in Paragraph 3 most probably means  .

A. extremely high             B. relatively low  

C. extremely low                  D.  relatively high

11. What can we learn from the text?

A. Eating fatty food has immediate effects on your heart.

B. Moderate air quality is more harmful than smoking,

C. The EPA conducted many studies on air quality.

D. Stricter regulations on pollutants should be made.

12.. The author’s purpose of writing the text is most likely to         . 

A. persuade  B.    inform    C. describe     D. entertain

Driving a car is not just handling controls and judging speed and distance. It requires you to predict what other road users will do and get ready to react to something unexpected , When alcohol is consumed, it enters your bloodstream and acts as a depressant （抑制药），damaging eyesight, judgment and co-ordination （协调），slowing down reaction time and greatly increasing the risk of accidents. Even below the drink driving link , driving well be affected.

Alcohol may take a few minutes to be absorbed into the bloodstream and start action on the brain. Absorption rate is increased when drinking on an empty stomach or when consuming drinks mixed with fruit juice. To get rid of alcohol from the body is a very slow process and it is not possible to speed it up with any measures like taking a shower or having a cup of tea or coffee.

The present Road Traffic Ordinance states clearly that the limit of alcohol concentration is :

● 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of blood ;or

● 22 micrograms of alcohol per 100ml of breath ;or

● 67 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of urine(尿液)

Drivers who cause traffic accidents, or who commit a moving traffic offence or 

are being suspected of drink driving will be tested.

Any drive found drinking beyond the limit will be charged.The driver declared

 guilty may be fined a maximum of HK25,000 and be sentenced to up to 3 years

 in prison and punished for 10 driving-offence points; or temporarily banned 

from driving.

The same punishment applices to failing to provide speciments(本) far breath,

 blood or urine tests without good excuse.

Drink driving is a criminal offebce.Be a responsible,driver,think before you drink. For the safety of yourself and other road users, never drive after consuming alcohol.

13.The first paragraph is mainly about_____________.

A. the introductions of driving skills     B.the process of alcohol being absorbed 

C. the effect of drinking on driving      D.  the dangaga of drinking to your body

14.The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to “________”.

   A. alcohol       B. absorption     C. process    D.blood

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

    A. Drinking below the drink driving limit has no effect on driving.

    B.  Having a cup of tea helps to get rid of alcohol from the body

    C. .Alcohol is taken in more quickly when drunk with fruit juice. 

    D.50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of breath is below the drink limit

Alice was beginning to get very   16    .She and her sister were17  under the trees

 Her sister was18 ， but Alice had nothing to do. Once or twice she    19   into her 

sister's  20 ， but it had  no pictures or conversations in it.“And what is the use of a 

book, ” thought Alice, “__21__pictures or conversations？”She tried to think of something to    22    , but it was a hot day and she felt very__23__and stupid. She was still

 sitting  and thinking     24   suddenly a white rabbit with pink eyes ran past her.

There was nothing really strange about seeing a rabbit. And Alice was not very 

surprised  when the     25     said, “Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be late！” (Perhaps

it was a little__26__， Alice thought later, but at the time she was not surprised.)But 

then the rabbit took a watch out of its pocket,  27    at it, and hurried on. At once Alice__28__ her feet.“I've never before   29    a rabbit with either a pocket, or a watch to 

take out of it，” she thought. And she   30 quickly across the field after the rabbit. 

She did not stop to think, and when the rabbit ran down a large rabbithole, Alice

__31__it immediately.

After a little way the rabbithole suddenly went down , deep into the ground. Alice

 could not     32    herself falling ， and down she went, too.It was a very strange hole. Alice was falling very    33   , and she had time to think and to look around her. She

 could see nothing below her because it was   34     dark . But when she looked at the 

sides of the__35__， she could see cupboards and books and pictures on the walls.
