I’m Bolivia Williams, a student at Bard College. I was the only person in my family who was Facebook friends with my mom, Rynn, when she died four years ago. At that time, my brother and sister were still young. As soon as we got the news that she died, I posted on Facebook, ―Rest in peace Mom...‖ I thought it would be an easy way to let everyone know what happened. Right after I posted the news, so many people offered their help and shared stories about her.

I lie to visit my mom’s page to tell her things that I’m doing and I like to look at her pictures there. I sing with the Brooklyn Youth Chorus(合唱团), and we did a concert for the tenth anniversary (周年纪念日) 0 9/11, which was also my mom’s birthday. It was an unforgettable day, I posted, ―You will be proud of me --- I will sing at the site of the World Trade Center tomorrow. I know you will be looking down, smiling.‖ When I’m writing to her, it feels like I’m still with her.

In the beginning, I wasn’t sure how to face my mom’s death. But I’ve grown up now. I haven’t

been on my mom’s page for a month, but I would miss it if it were gone. Her page allows me to think that she’s still here.

I used to go to my mom’s page to look at her pictures, which would make me feel really sad. Now, when I visit it, I smile more often than cry.

Why do we like drinking water from plastic bottles? Some people think it is healthy and clean. Others drink bottled water because it’s easy----you can carry it around with you. In hot countries, like Greece, we often buy bottles of cold water in the summer.

However, making lots of plastic is not a good idea for many reasons. First of all, we need a lot of oil for plastic products. We usually use oil as a source(资源) of energy. If we reduced the number of bottles we made, we wouldn’t need so much oil. Plastic bottles also pollute the environment.. If we recycled all our plastic bottles, we wouldn’t need so much space for rubbish dumps. But in Greece, we don’t recycle much of the plastic we use. In 2006, Greeks recycled only about 10% of plastic waste. The rest became rubbish on land and in rivers and seas.

So next time you want to throw away a plastic bottle in the litter bin, stop and think. If you recycled it, you would help the environment. But what can you do when there isn’t a recycling bin near you? Well, there are lots of useful ways that you can use your bottles again. For example, an empty bottle makes a great piggy bank for your pocket money, and if you cut a bottle in half, you will have a plant tot. Go green! You can make a difference.

( ) 59.Plastic products are made from _____________.

A. energy

B. oil

C. rubbish

D. plants.

( ) 60. ______________ of plastic waste became rubbish in Greece in 2006.

A. 10%

B.50%

C.80%

D.90%

( ) 61.Which is the best way to deal with used plastic bottles?

A. To recycle them.

B. To make a piggy bank.

C. To make a plant pot.

D. To drop them into the river.

( ) 62.The underlined part in this passage tells us ―___________‖

A.To make a different life, you’d better go outside.

B.To look different, you’d better wear green clothes.

C.To protect the environment, you can do something.

D.To go green, you should use plastic products.

Developing a nap(小憩) habit does good to you whether you feel you need it or not. To get

a better nap, follow these suggestions.

1.Make it 20 or 50 Minutes Long

A 20-minute nap will make you think clearly, a 50-minute one can make you more creative.

But a much longer nap will make you more tired and sleepier.

Humans will have a natural drop in body temperature (the same kind that makes you feel sleepy at night) between 1 pm and 3pm. A nap at this time is easy and, for most people, it won’t stop them falling asleep at night.

3. Lie Down for Sleep

It takes about 50 percent longer to fall asleep sitting up than lying down. That’s why we sleep so poorly on planes and trains! Choose a dark place that’s neither too warm nor too cold. https://www.360docs.net/doc/db5515173.html, advises napping on the sofa instead of in bed so that you’re less likely to nap for too long.

4. Naps Can’t Replace（取代）Night-time Sleep

If you still feel tired even after a nap, you’re probably not getting enough night-time sleep.

B卷（满分60分）

第一节：任务型阅读。（共5小题，每小题3分，满分15分）

阅读短文，根据短文内容完成下列题目。（请注意各问题后的字数要求）

Sometimes people come into your life and you know that they are there to teach you a lesson, or to help you understand who you are or who you want to become.

You never know these people who may be a classmate, a neighbor or a friend---but when you lock your eyes on them, you know at that very moment they will influence your life in some ways.

Sometimes things that happen to you may seem unpleasant, painful, or frustrating at first. But in another way, you find that without getting over those difficulties you would have never realized your ability, strength or will power.

The people you meet and the success you get help to create who you are and who you become. Even the bad experience can be learned from. In someone loves you, give love back to them in the way you can, not only because they love you, but because in a way, they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things.

If someone hurts you, or breaks you heart, forgive them, for they have helped you learn about truth and the importance of being careful of people around.

Self-confidence is necessary to a person. If you’re not confident, it will be hard for others to believe in you. Learn a lesson in life each day you live!
