Recently after having spent three months teaching children in the Everest region, the couple want to show it is
possible to travel through the world's climate zones usi ng just human-power and forces of nature．
In the 47 countries they have visited they have collected 22 tons of trash, taught people in Ecuador how the sun's rays can be used to clean water and inspired a person in Chile to build a house on water with recycled plastic bottles as a foundation．They have also collected trash in the mountains of Nepal with school children．
So far they have communicated with 45,000 children from South America, Australia and Asia, giving presentations about the importance of recycling and using alternative energy like solar and wind power．When they began their adventure in 2003 they had no children of their own．But since then two has become five: daughter Sabine is now five years old, Andri was born in Chile and baby Neo was bom in Australia．Initially the couple thought they would complete their travels in four years, but now, they believe it could take seven more．

The drug store was closing for the night．Young Alfred Higgins, the stop-assistant, was ready to go home．Mr.
Carr, the boss, stared at him, saying, "Hold on, Alfred．Maybe you'd be good enough to take the things out of your pockets and leave them here before you go．" Alfred's face got red．After a little hesitation, he took out what he had stolen．Mr. Carr said, "Maybe I should call your mother and let her know I'm going to have to put you in prison．"
Alfred thought his mother would come, eyes burning with anger．But, to his surprise, she arrived wearing a smile．Mr. Carr was surprised, too．He had expected Alfred's mother to come in nervously, shaking with fear and asking with wet eyes for a mercy for her son．But no, she was most calm, quiet and pleasant and was making Mr. Carr feel guilty．Soon Mr. Carr was in agreement with what she was saying．"Of course", he said, "I don't want to be cruel．You are right．Sometimes, a little good advice is the best thing for a boy at certain times in his life and it often takes the youths long to get sense into their heads．" And he warmly shook Mrs. Higgins's hand．
Back home, without even looking at Alfred, she said, "Luck is always against you! It is one thing after another, always has been．Why do you stand there so stupidly? Go to bed!" In his bedroom, Alfred heard his mother in the kitchen．There was no shame in him, just pride in his mother's strength．As he got to the kitchen, he saw his mother drinking a cup of tea．He was shocked by what he saw．His mother's face was a frightened, broken one．It was not the same cool, bright face he saw earlier in the store．
As she lifted the tea cup, her hand shaking．He watched his mother without making a sound．The picture of his mother made him want to cry．He saw all the troubles he brought his mother in her shaking hand and the deep lines of worry in her grey old face He felt his youth coining to an end．

When did you last visit a shopping mall? In many places, the answer would be "last weekend．" Some people go even more often．Why? Malls offer goods and services all in one place: food, clothing, things for their houses, entertainment, even medical services．So, are they one of the highlights of modern civilization?
Environmental activists would say no and would go even further, arguing that consumer behavior is
causing a huge environmental disaster．They cause consumers' ignorance of the side effect of their
shopping—urban sprawl （扩大）．
Social scientists agree that patterns of development have changed the landscape a lot．Before 1950, most people lived in towns or cities and either walked to work or took public transportation．Only very wealthy people had automobiles．Farmers lived in rural areas or far-away villages and came into town only when they needed things they couldn't produce themselves．If you stared at the landscape you would see towns surrounded by the countryside．
Now automobiles become affordable and people are quick to make use of them．Ambitious workers could live in suburbs, just outside cities, which have started to grow rapidly．As long as there is lots of cheap land there, no one pays much attention to the usage of that land．Malls, fast food restaurants, cinemas, and such spread out in large, flat buildings．These one-storey buildings and their parking lot take up too much space．Many farmers think they are better off selling their land than growing crops．No one has realized once the land is built up in urban sprawl, the good farming land will be ruined forever．There is no way to preserve （保护）it．
Only in recent years have people come to miss the old way of life as they have looked into the problems of unconditional growth．Now people realize that urban sprawl has come with serious environmental
problems．The bad effects that sprawl brings about include air and water pollution, loss of agricultural land, traffic jams, and so on．Many scholars think it's time to analyze the problems better so we can develop proper policies to control further sprawl．Some think the best way to do is to educate citizens．53．What is mainly discussed in the passage?
A．Shopping Malls B．Urban Sprawl
C．New Automobiles D．Environmental Problems
54．What does the underlined word "They" refer to in the first paragraph?
A．Mails．B．Acti vists．
C．Medical services． D．Consumers．
55．What is the main purpose of the text?
A．To introduce mainly the environmental problems．
B．To explain the differences in people's life both today and in the past．
C．To persuade people to live in the country instead of living in the city．
D．To call on people to pay special attention to the problems with urban sprawl
56．What is the scholars' attitude toward urban sprawl?
A．Respectful．B．Negative．
C．Favorable．D．Doubtful．

The crisis at the damaged Fukushima Dai-lchi Nuclear Power Station in northern Japan has raised worries about radiation risks．We spoke Tuesday with Jonathan Links, an expert in radiation health sciences, and also a professor at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, who says workers within the nuclear plant are the only people at the risk of extremely high doses （量）of radiation．
For other people, he says, there may be a long-term worry．People can get cancer from low doses of radiation in
a nuclear accident．If the situation is serious enough, officials could take steps like telling people not to eat
locally grown food or drink the water．
JONATHAN LINKS: "But that would only be the case if there was a significant release （释放）and, because of wind direction, the radioactive material was blown over the area, and then into and onto water, plants, fruits and vegetables．"
The reactors at Fukushima are on the Pacific coast．But Professor Links says people should not worry about any radioactive material leaking（泄漏）into the ocean．
JONATHAN LINKS: "Even in a worst accident, the sea provides a very high degree of dilution （稀释）．So the concentration （浓度）of radioactivity in the seawater would still be quite low．"
Japan is the only country to have had atomic bombs dropped on it．That memory from World War Two would create a stronger "psychological sensitivity" to radiation exposure．
Next month is the 25th anniversary of the explosion and fire that destroyed a reactor at Chemobyl in Ukraine．The 1986 event was the world's worst accident in the nuclear power industry．
A new report says over 6000 cases of thyroid cancer have been found．These are in people who were children in
affected areas of Belarus, Russia and Ukraine．The report says that by 2005 the cancers had resulted in fifteen deaths．The cancers were largely caused by drinking contaminated （污染的）milk from cows eating grass where radioactive material had fallen．
57．The passage mainly tells us ______．
A．what measures the Japanese government takes to solve the nuclear crisis．
B．worries and influences caused by the nuclear crisis．
C．with g reat efforts of scientists, the Japanese government has put the nuclear crisis under control．D．to explain that the nuclear crisis has less effect on its neighboring countries．
58．Which of the following is not the influence caused by the leak of Fukushima Dai-Ichi Nuclear Power Station?
A．Workers at the nuclear station are suffering the risk of death．
B．Even low doses of radiation in a nuclear accident can cause people's cancer．
C．More than 6000 cases of thyroid cancer have been found．
D．Wind may blow the radioactive material over the area causing pollution to water．
59．According to the passage, which of the following is NOT TRUE ?
A．It's not necessary for people to worry about any radioactive material leaking into the ocean．
B．No country other than Japan has had atomic bombs dropped on it．
C．By 2005, there had been 15 deaths caused by thyroid cancer．
D．The nuclear accident in Japan is the worst in the nuclear power industry．
60．This article is probably chosen from a ____．
A．website B．medical report
C．science fiction D．tourist handbook
