A1. Adam didn't buy drinks for his friends because ____.A. he had no moneyB. his friends refused himC. they didn't finish theirsD. they didn't need any more2. To show they like the lecture, the students ____ in Germany.A. stand upB. clap their handsC. knock on the desksD. put their hands on the desks3. How might Zoe feel when she heard her friend's explanation?A. Surprised.B. Happy.C. Angry.D. Bored.4. In which part of a magazine can we probably read this passage?A. Education.B. Health.C. Customs.D. Science.BIn the eyes of many foreigners, Chinese are the best hosts and the worst guests in the world. They're not really bad guests, but because the guest-host relationship in China is much different from that in some western countries, it appears that they are not nice guests. And western guests sometimes look rude (粗鲁的) in the eyes of Chinese guests.In China,hosts try their best to make guests feel at home. Whenever I enter a Chinese person's home, there is always fruit on the table for me, and someone is quick to bring me a cup of tea or water. In the west, acting according to the host's way of doing things is usual behavior for a guest.My wife's mother, a very kind elderly Chinese lady, doesn't smoke. When I see some of her guests smoking in her house, as a non-smoker, I feel unhappy. Usually I want to stop them directly, but I must realize that in China, to be a good host, she must not do that. In most North American homes, if you are a guest, and the hosts are not smokers, you should not smoke in their house. At the very least, you could ask,“Is it OK if I smoke?” But, don't be surprised if they say, “No, you can't smoke. ” In our culture, if you smoke in their home, you are a bad guest, but if they don't allow you to smoke in their house, they are not a rude host.Guests in China also have special habits. Some western people may not adapt__to these habits very soon. Thankfully my wife is Chinese, so whenever we visit a Chinese family she tells me to buy them a gift. However, giving a gift to a host is notalways necessary in my country. So, if you invite international guests to your home, don't be too surprised if they don't bring you a gift.In China, you probably won't need to change the guest-host relationship very much because you will probably only be the host, and Chinese are naturally very good hosts. If western hosts invite you to their house, try not to be too surprised if their style of treating you is not what you have expected.5. When a western guest visits a Chinese family, he often ____.A. buys some fruitB. gets a warm welcomeC. wants some giftsD. takes a cup of coffee6. If the writer's guests want to smoke in his house, what will he probably say?A. It's OK if you smoke here.B. Let's smoke together.C. Sorry, you can't smoke here.D. Smoking is a bad habit.7. The underlined words“adapt to”in the fourth paragraph probably mean“____”.A. think back toB. get used toC. look forward toD. keep close to8. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Foreigners should learn from Chinese.B. Hosts must do things in the guest's way.C. Western hosts are always nice to guests.D. People should understand cultural differences.CWhether you have foreign friends or a foreign teacher, you might find one day they invite you to their house. What should you expect? How should you behave? Follow these tips, and you'll behave well.Before you go, ask what kind of visit this is. If you are invited for an activity like watching TV or playing a game, then you won't be expected to bring anything with you. If you're invited for dinner, ask if there is something you can bring, like a drink, some snacks or a dessert.When you arrive, your host will usually offer you a drink. Don't just say: “I'll have a Coke. ” Ask what they have now, and then make your choice. This way youwon't ask for something they don't have, which will save everyone from embarrassment(尴尬).When you're invited to someone's house for a meal, offer to help your hosts prepare food or set the table. If they decline(谢绝)your help before the meal, make sure you offer to clean up afterwards.Remember that while some people appreciate a guest's help, others would prefer that you just relax and enjoy yourself.When the meal is ready, it's polite to try everything on offer.When you leave, thank your hosts for inviting you. If you can, invite them next time!9. What should you bring if your foreign friend asks you to play games with her?A. Drinks.B. Desserts.C. Snacks.D. Nothing.10. What can we learn about having drinks when visiting a family?A. Every home has prepared Coke for guests.B. Don't ask for a certain drink directly.C. Bring your own drinks to be a good guest.D. It is rude to have drinks in the host's house.11. What does the underlined word “afterwards” exactly refer to?A. After the meal.B. After arriving at the house.C. Before the meal.D. In the kitchen.12. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. How to make friends with foreigners.B. What gift we can buy for our foreign friends.C. How to behave well when invited to a foreigner's house.D. What we can drink and eat at the party.DWe can't remember clearly when we started to take our phones to a dinner table. It's very common especially when we eat out. Once a dish comes, instead of lifting our chopsticks, we hold up our phones and take a photo. Later, we post the photosonto Weibo or WeChat, waiting to be “liked”. In the following moments, we check our phones from time to time during the meal, to see whether we get “liked” or not. We just cannot leave our phones for even a meal.Does that sound familiar to you? Do you do that often? If not, how do you feel if others do so while dining with you?A recent study suggests that spending time taking photos of food makes the food less pleasant. To test this, some researchers did an experiment. Some people were asked to take photos before they could enjoy food. As a result, it showed that the more photos they took, __▲__. So, why not stop taking photos and just enjoy the food in front of you?Besides the scientific result, there are also some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals. After posting the photos onto the Internet, one will not be able to control hi mself or herself and check the phone again and again. “Does everyone like my photos? Do the ones I care like them? I do hope so!” It seems that your phone secretly calls your name all the time, even when you are with real people.Then how about not taking photos of food when you go out to dine with someone next time? Let the food be delicious as it is and share your life with people around you. Just put your phone aside, and you'll see how wonderful the meal will be.13. What happens a lot at the dinner table nowadays?A. People talk about their Weibo or WeChat.B. People learn from each other how to cook dishes.C. People enjoy taking photos with friends or family.D. People take photos of food and post them before eating.14.

What does the fourth paragraph mainly talk about?A. The reasons for checking your mobiles.B. The ways of posting the photos onto the Internet.C. The tips for making others like your photos on the Internet.D. Some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals.16. What can we learn from the passage?A. Take photos of food in order to have a wonderful life.B. Take photos of delicious food and share them with others.C. Remember to have dinner with our family and friends at home.D. Enjoy the life with people around us instead of taking photos of food.第二节阅读短文,从方框内所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,其中有一个多余的选项。

根据短文内容,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案。

ADifferent countries have different customs in giving presents.In China you must never give a clock to a Chinese person,because the sound of the word for “clock” is similar to the sound of “death”. Also,don't wrap a present in white,black or blue paper,because they are the colors for funerals(葬礼).Don't give a knife,because something sharp can cut a friendship.In Russia if you give flowers as presents, you have to give an odd number of them (one,three,five,etc.) because even numbers of flowers are for funerals.In Germany if you are invited to dinner,flowers are good presents to take to your dinner hostess, but don't take her red roses because it means you are in love with her. Don't take thirteen of anything because it's an unlucky number. Don't take an even number of anything, either. Don't wrap your presents in white, brown, or black paper.( )1. According to the passage, ______ must never be given to Chinese people as presents.A. flowersB. clothesC. foodD. clocks( )2. People don't wrap presents in black or white paper in ________.A.

Which is the best title of the passage?A.Foreigners' PresentsB. Giving Flowers as PresentsC. Different Customs in Giving PresentsD. Don't Give Thirteen of Anything as PresentsBIf you're traveling to the United States,you need to understand the common way to say hello -a handshake. Friends shake hands. Women,men and even children can shake hands. Shaking hands also seems simple,but there are some important things to remember. When you shake hands,you must look into the other person's eyes the whole time you're shaking hands.Shake hands strongly. If you give a weak handshake,the other person might think that you're not kind. He / She might also feel that you don't like him / her or you don't want to touch him / her. Shake hands with men and women the same way. If you shake hands with a very old person or a small child,be careful not to hurt them.Some people don't know how long to keep shaking. The most common handshake should have three shakes and then you should let go. Don't worry if Americans shake hands a little longer.Your handshake is like your smile. It's special to you. You need to find a comfortable strong handshake that shows what you are like. Because the handshake allows people to touch,the hand should be warm,clean and dry.Warm:Put your hands into your pockets before you shake hands. This will warm them. Clean:If you know you're going to meet someone,wash your hands so they'll be clean. Dry:Everyone gets nervous and your hands may get wet. It isn't a good feeling for the other person. Again,put your hands into your pockets. This will dry them.( )6. When you stay in the USA,the common way to greet is to ________.A. bowB. kissC. hugD. shake hands( )7. If you give a weak handshake in America,the other person might think that you're ________.A. unfriendlyB. braveC. friendlyD. outgoing( )8.

You should hold their hands for a long time.D. You needn't look into their eyes the whole time.( )9. The most common handshake should have______shakes, and then you should let go.A. threeB. fourC. fiveD. six( )10. Which of the following can be the BEST title for the passage?A.How to Greet in the USAB. The Meaning of HandshakeC. Tips for Shaking Hands with AmericansD. Ways to Keep Hands Warm,Clean and DryCShanghai is in East China. It’s an international city. Shanghai is famous for its night views and shopping centers. It is one of the largest cities in the world. It is also known as the “Shopping Paradise(天堂)” because there are a lot of department stores and huge shopping centers. Therefore, it’s not surprising that many tourists come to visit Shanghai every year for shopping.People’s Square is known as the center of Shanghai. If you go there, you will see a huge open area with green grass, fountains(喷泉) and pigeons(鸽子). There are many new buildings around. You will find Shanghai Grand Theater, the Musical Hall and Shanghai Museum there.If you go to Pudong New District in the east of Shanghai, you will see the Nanpu Bridge. It’s 8,364 meters long. It’s one of the longest suspension bridges in the world. In Pudong, you will also see the famous Oriental Pearl TV Tower.()11.Shanghai is in .A.South ChinaB.East ChinaC.North ChinaD.West China()12.Shanghai is famous for its .A.night viewsB.shopping centersC.clean airD.A and B()13.is known as the center of Shanghai.A.Pudong New DistrictB.Shanghai Grand TheaterC.People’s SquareD.The Oriental Pearl TV Tower()14.We can see at People’s Square.A.green grassB.fountainsC.pigeonsD.A, B and C()15.Shanghai is in the world.A.the largest cityB.one of the largest citiesC.the smallest cityD.the most crowded cityDDifferent countries have different customs. When you are in different countries, you should follow the customs there. In China, you are not supposed to start eating first if there are older people at the table.Very often people who travel to the United States forget to tip. It is usual to tip waiters, taxi drivers and porters who help carry your bags at a train station, an airport or in a hotel. Waiters expect to get a fifteen percent tip on the cost of your meal. Taxi drivers expect about the same amount.In England, you can see people standing in line almost everywhere, at the bus stop, in a bank, in the post office, in the doctor's waiting room and so on. So when you are in the UK, make sure to wait in a queue even if there are only two of you. It's a good idea to talk about the weather there. It's a favorite subject of conversations with the British.In Spain, it's a good idea to have a light meal in the afternoon if someone invites you for dinner. People have dinner very late, and restaurants do not usually open until 9:00 p.m.In Saudi Arabia, men kiss one another on the cheek(脸颊).Your host may welcome you with a kiss on both cheeks. It is polite for you to do the same.In Japan, people usually give personal or business cards to each other when they meet for the first time. When a person gives you a card, don't put it into your pocket soon. The person expects you to read it before you put it away.Don't forget to be careful of your body language when you express something in conversations. A kind of body language that is acceptable in one culture may be impolite in another.()16.Which of the following Chinese table manners is mentioned in Paragraph 1?A.Let the older people start eating first.B.Don't stick your chopsticks into your food.C.Put your food on a plate or in a bowl.D.Don't point at anyone with your chopsticks.()17.According to Paragraph 2, when you eat in a restaurant in the US and the cost of your meal is $120, you're supposed to leave as a tip.A.$24B.$18C.$15D.$12()18.The underlined word “queue” in Paragraph 3 most probably means “”.A.a line of peopleB.a kind of weatherC.a traffic signD.a public place ()19.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A.Restaurants in Spain usually close at 9:00 p.m.B.It's impolite to talk about the weather in England.C.When people in Saudi Arabia meet, they kiss each other on the cheek.D.We don't have to be careful about body language in foreign countries.()20.What is this passage mainly about?A.When to give business cards.B.How to use body language.C.Table manners in six countries.D.Customs in different countries.EBirthdays are celebrated all over the world. Some ways to celebrate birthdays are rather similar from country to country: candles, cake and birthday wishes. But there are also different ways to celebrate birthdays. Here are a few:DenmarkA flag is flown outside a window to show that people in that house are having a birthday. Presents are placed around the child’s bed while he is sleeping so he will see them at once when he wakes up.IndiaUsually Indian children wear white to school. However, on their birthday children wear colored clothes to school and give out chocolates to everyone in the class. Their best friend helps them to do this.JapanThe birthday child wears new clothes to mark the special time. Certain birthdays are more important than others. These are the third and seventh birthdays for girls and the fifth for boys. HollandThe birthday child receives an especially large present. The family also put flowers on the birthday child’s chair to make it beautiful.()21.When someone is having a birthday in Denmark, you can see outside the window.A.flowersB.presentsC.a flagD.a chair()22.In flowers are put on the chair of the birthday child.A.JapanB.DenmarkC.IndiaD.Holland()23.In Japan, the birthday is more important for boys when they are .A.15B.7C.5D.3()24.According to the passage, .A.all kids put on new clothes on their birthdayB.gifts are put under a kid’s bed before his birthday in DenmarkC.in India chocolates are given to the birthday kid on his birthdayD.an especially big gift will be sent to the kid on his birthday in Holland()25.The passage is mainly about .A.similar ways of celebrating birthdays in some countriesB.different ways of celebrating birthdays in some countriesC.children’s birthdays in Western countriesD.the importance of children’s birthdaysFIn the USA, it is normal for men to shake hands when they meet, but it is quite unusual for men to kiss when they greet each other. Greetings are casual—a handshake, a smile and a “hello” will do just fine.The British often simply say “hello” when they meet friends. They usually shake hands only when they meet for the first time. Social kissing, often just a peck(轻吻) on the cheek, is common in an informal(非正式的) situation between men and women and also between women who know each other very well.In Japan, the common greeting for both men and women is to bow when they greet someone, instead of giving a handshake or a hug.Hungarians like to greet in a friendly way—kiss each other on both cheeks. The most common way is to kiss from your right to your left. When men meet for the first time, a handshake is the norm.In Albania, men shake hands when greeting one another. A kiss on the cheek may also be common if there is a close relationship. Women may shake hands or kiss each other on both cheeks.In Armenia, by tradition, a woman needs to wait for a man to offer his hand for a handshake. Between good friends and family members, a kiss on the cheek and a hug are also common.()26.In Britain, when two people meet for the first time, they usually .A.hugB.bowC.shake handsD.kiss on the cheek()27.The underlined word “norm” in Paragraph 4 means “” in Chinese.A.规范B.意图C.象征D.结果()28.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.In Japan, hugging is as common as bowing.B.In Hungary, people usually kiss each other on the cheeks from left to right.C.In Albania, it is unusual for men to kiss if there is a close relationship.D.In Armenia, it is necessary for a woman to wait for a man to offer his hand for a handshake.()29.How many countries are mentioned in the passage?A.Four.B.Five.C.Six.D.Seven.()30.What’s the best title of the passage?A.Country and CultureB.Culture and PeopleC.Greeting Customs Around the WorldD.Body Language in Different CulturesGWhen was the last time you gave or received a hug? Do your parents hug you before you go to school? In Western countries, it is quite common to greet close friends or relatives with a hug.You might hug your teammates after winning a basketball game. If one of your friends is having a bad day, you can hug them to cheer them up. Friends who haven’t seen each other for a long time will usually hug each other when meeting.Of course, people in different countries have different opinions when it comes to hugging. After coming to China, I’ve noticed that people are generally more reluctant(不情愿的) to hug than they are in my home country, the US.My Chinese friends told me that hugging is considered to be very intimate(亲密的) in their culture. It usually only happens between people who are really close to each other, like couples. Chinese people don’t usually hug in public, either.But people’s attitudes(态度) towards hugging can also change. I remember watching a video story about a “hugging party” that was held in Shanghai. A local artist held the party, inviting strangers and asking them to hug each other.The Chinese participants(参与者) clearly looked uncomfortable. However, after the party, several of them changed their minds. They decided that hugging doesn t have to be awkward(尴尬的) and can actually be quite nice. So next time you see your mom or dad, give them a hug—see how it makes you feel.()31.What usually happens between good friends when meeting in Western countries?A.Hugging.B.Nodding.C.Shaking hands.D.Smiling.()32.The second paragraph tells us .A.the advantages of hugging each otherB.some situations in which people hug each otherC.the reasons why friends need to hug each otherD.how to cheer up our friends()33.In Chinese culture, hugs usually happen between .A.friendsB.classmatesC.couplesD.relatives()34.What did people do at the “hugging party”?A.They were invited to hug each other.B.They watched a video about hugging.C.They told stories about hugging.D.They listened to music about hugging. ()35.The writer wrote the last paragraph to .A.encourage people to be nice to strangersB.explain why people feel uncomfortable while huggingC.show how people can change their minds about huggingD.encourage people to love their parentsHVanuatu is an island nation in the South Pacific. It is one of the smallest countries in the world. But for those who are interested in adventure and sports, there is a lot to do. Vanuatu’s islands offer visitors two of the most exciting and dangerous activities in the world: volcano(火山) surfing and land diving.V olcano SurfingOn Tanna Island, Mount Yasur rises 300 meters into the sky. Yasur is an active volcano, and it erupts(爆发) almost every day, sometimes several times a day. For centuries, people have climbed this mountain to visit the top. Recently, people have also started climbing Yasur to surf the volcano. In some ways, volcano surfing is like surfing in the sea, but in other ways it’s very different. V olcano surfers try to escape from the volcano—without getting hit by flying rocks! It’s fast, fun and dangerous—the perfect extreme sport(极限运动).Land DivingMost people are familiar with bungee jumping, but do you know bungee jumping started on Pentecost Island in Vanuatu and is almost fifteen centuries old? The activity, first called land diving, is part of a religious ceremony(宗教仪式). A man ties tree vines(树藤) to his legs. He then jumps head-first from a high tower to touch the earth with the top of his head—without breaking the vines. Every spring, island natives (men only) still take part in this amazingactivity.()36.What does the underlined word “those” m ean?A.Visitors.B.Animals.C.Activities.D.Islands.()37.According to the passage, Mount Yasur .A.is no longer activeB.is on Pentecost IslandC.erupts almost every dayD.rises 800 meters into the sky()38.Why have people recently started climbing Mount Yasur?A.Because people can climb it easily.B.Because people can make money.C.Because people can watch snow on it.D.Because people can surf the volcano. ()39.Which of the following about land diving is TRUE?A.It is not dangerous at all.B.It was first called “bungee jumping”.C.It is a traditional activity in Vanuatu.D.It came to Vanuatu from another country.()40.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To tell people not to do dangerous sports.B.To explain what volcano surfing and land diving are.C.To talk about the world’s best volcano surfer and land diver.D.To compare activities in Vanuatu with sports in New Zealand.II arrived in the UK last weekend to learn English. So far I have already had a few friends and had some traditional English food here. But after having three days of hamburgers, sandwiches and potatoes, I thought none could be more delicious than Chinese food, especially my favorite—huo guo. You can’t imagine how excite d I was when I got to know that there was going to be a free meal of hotpot to welcome the new students. On the way to the canteen, I seemed to smell huo guo in the air.To my surprise, when I went into the room, I didn’t see any sign of huo guo. Where was it?With many questions in my mind, I sat down to have the free meal. After talking with an English girl, I got to know that Chinese huo guo is completely different from hotpot. Chinese huo guo is written in two words—hot pot; and hotpot, one word, is a traditional English dish.Hotpot is made from mutton and onion. On the top are pieces of potatoes.

一、阅读理解文章大意:本文主要介绍了信封的历史,最早信封出现在中国,价格昂贵。

19世纪,印刷和制造方法有了很大改进,信封价格变低。

今天电子邮件也比手写信件更受欢迎。

然而,信封仍是现代生活的一部分。

1. 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项(选项中有两项为多余选项)。

The envelope(信封)is designed to protect letters. It is so common today that we pay little attention to it. 1 The history of the envelope may be much longer than you think.It’s believed the envelope first appeared in ancient China. It was used to protect royal messages. However, the early envelope was nothing like what we use today. 2 After the message was put into it, the envelope would be closed with more clay. To read the message, one had to break the “envelope”.3 It was also invented by the Chinese. However, at first, people used it only to send money to each other as gifts. The design of the earlypaper envelope was very simple, but it was made completely by hand. 4In the 19th century, printing methods improved greatly. The machine could produce about 12,500 envelopes every day. 5Today, e-mails have become more popular than handwritten letters. But billions of envelopes are used around the world every year. They are still part of modern life.A.It looked like a ball.B.So it was very expensive.C.And the design also became popular.D.Could it be used for sending messages?E.The first paper envelope appeared around 200 BC.F.With these technologies, the cost of envelopes went down.G.But did you know when and where the envelope first appeared?2. Teenage life ― better now, or in the past?Does this situation sound familiar (熟悉的)?Y ou are complaining (抱怨) to your parents about something. Maybe your computer isn’t powerful enough to play the latest games. 1 Then you hear ….“When I was your age, there weren’t any computers or video games. I didn’t get a bike until I was sixteen. And it was second-hand. 2 ”So is it really true that life is better for teenagers now? It is certainly true that many teenagers have got more things nowadays. 3 So parents have got more money to spend on each child. And many things are cheaper than they were when our parents were children.4 Forty years ago, no one could imagine a world with tiny computers and amazing smartphones. And now these things are necessary ― wecan’t imagine living without them!However, technology often means we spend more time at home. And often it’s just us, with our computer or television. Teenagers don’t do enough exercise. 5 And, although young people still get on well with their friends, some people think teenagers today don’t have so many social activities as they did in the past.What do you think? How is teenager life better these days?A.And it was too big for me.B.A typical (典型的) family is smaller now.C.Or your friends’ bikes are better than yours.D.So they aren’t as healthy as they were in the past.E.Technology is probably the greatest change in our life.F.You can make your own decisions.G.They have more time to do outdoor activities.3. How to build self-confidenceThese tips could help anyone who is trying to build self-confidence(自信). Remember to always love yourself and love others as you love yourself. Try not to be so hard on yourself or others.Choose to deal with those who can lift you up. Talk to and hang out with friends and family. Make new friends with those who love you and really care about you. 1 Choose your friends carefully. Be careful of people who may make you feel bad or unhappy about yourself.Get to know yourself, What are your values, your beliefs, your morals(道德观), your wants, your needs and your tastes? 23 Y ou can not be perfect, you can only be the best you can be. No one in this world is perfect, so don’t blame(指责) yourself for making a mistake or not being perfect. Also, stop comparing yourself to others. 4Be kind to others and do nice things for them. This will help to build your self-confidence. 5 Y ou will realize that by making other people happy, you yourself will also become happy with your life and yourself.A.Tell others “I love you”.B.Stop trying to be perfect.C.The better you know yourself, the easier it will be to love yourself.D.You will never be them and they will never be you.E.This is what you can truly do to make people happy.F.They can accept you for who you are and only want the best for you.G.Accept yourself and love yourself for who you are.文章大意:本文主要介绍了一些让你振作起来的有用方法。

Like most of today's teenagers, Dou loves pop music.But since Dou entered the Xuanwu branch school of Beijing No. 15 Middle School, she has been studying Peking Opera in music class every week.Dou and her classmates listen to Peking Opera and learn the basics(基础知识) from professional actors. They also sing along with the operas."We laugh sometimes because the tunes(声调) are really hard to learn," said Dou. But she said that now she would watch Peking Opera on TV. "After all, I am no longer a layman," she said.Since 2008, schools around the country have been teaching students Peking Opera. It's part of a plan to introduce young people to the country's artistic traditions. Clearly, Dou's school has beentaking the job seriously. Yang Ning, 14, is Dou's classmate. She has been studying Peking Opera since she was 8. She is a member of the school's Peking Opera club."I learn a lot of history from the operas," she said. "I've also found out about many ancient poems, since there are so many of them in the operas."Yang doesn't think everyone can lean to sing Peking Opera well, but she does say that it's helpful for all people to learn about it.

See your anger for what it is and quickly deal with it.Stop making excuses for itYou may feel you have a right to be angry. You may think you're right and the other person is wrong. You may even secretly enjoy making the other person look bad. But in the end, bitterness hurts you much more than the other person. The bitterness will hold you back, and the other person will go on with his or her life.Forgive and forget itYou probably can't completely put the anger out of your mind.

Most Chinese hotels often provide guests with disposable(一次性的) things, like 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 bringyour 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(资源) and is very bad for the environment. Do you know, one Chinese person makes as much as 400 kg 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 dining-room, use your own bowl and chopsticks instead of disposable ones.To protect our environment and our home, it is very necessary and important for us to save natural resources.46. Many guests like disposable things because they think they are .A. convenientB. cheapC. goodD. useful47. According to the passage, some Beijing hotels won't provide guests with any long.A. free coffeeB. disposable thingsC. internet serviceD. food and drinks48. How many tons of plastic bags do people throw away in Beijing every year?A. 400.B. 19,000.C. 1,320.D. 100.49. What's the main idea of the passage?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.六、阅读与表达(填空式)(共7小题;共14分)The "green" car has become popular in recent years. A green car is an environmentally friendly car. Today, most cars are powered(驱动) by petrol(汽油). They make our life easier. But cars have also made problems for the environment.There are a few new types of cars that use no petrol or a little petrol.Electric cars: This kind of car uses a battery(电池) for power. When you're not driving it, just plug it in like a mobile phone to power up the battery. They don't make exhaust(排放物). But car makers still can't make a battery that lasts for more than a few hours. That's why electric cars aren't very popular.Fuel cell cars(燃料电池车): Fuel cell cars use hydrogen(氢) and oxygen(氧) to make power. The only exhaust they produce is clean water. But fuel cell cars are still much too expensive to make.Solar cars: This kind of car has large panels(板) on the top that take power from the sunshine. The car holds that power in a battery. Solar cars might be the cleanest of all. But no one uses them,because solar panels can't get enough power from the sun to make a car go for a long time.
