6、       Ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling．Recycling in the home is very important of course．However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need．We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place．

       The total amount of packaging increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005．It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the UK．In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard．

       Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment．The UK, for example, is running out of areas for burying this unnecessary waste．If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect．Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy．The solution is not to produce such items in the first place．Food waste is a serious problem, too．Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need．However, a few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example．

       But this is not just about supermarkets．It is about all of us．We have learned to associate packaging with quality．We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality．This is especially true of food．But it also applies to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary．

       There are signs of hope．As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realize just how much unnecessary material we are collecting．We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb．

1．What does the underlined phrase “that over-consumption” refer to？

       A．Using too much packaging．               B．Recycling too many wastes．

       C．Making more products than necessary．                               D．Having more material than is needed．

2．The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show _____．

       A．the tendency of cutting household waste

       B．the increase of packaging recycling

       C．the rapid growth of supermarkets

       D．the fact of packaging overuse

3．According to the text, recycling ______．

       A．helps control the greenhouse effect      B．means burning packaging for energy

       C．is the solution to gas shortage              D．leads to a waste of land

4．What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?

       A．Unpackaged products are of bad quality．

       B．Supermarkets care more about packaging．

       C．It is improper to judge quality by packaging．

       D．Other products are better packaged than food．

5．What can we learn from the last paragraph?

       A．Fighting wastefulness is difficult．

       B．Needless material is mostly recycled．

       C．People like collecting recyclable wastes．

       D．The author is proud of their consumer culture．

4、       Usually, when your teacher asks a question, there is only one correct answer．But there is one question that has millions of correct answers．That question is “What’s your name?” Everyone gives a different answer, but everyone is correct．

       Have you ever wondered about people’s names? Where do they come from? What do they mean?

       People’s first names, or given names, are chosen by their parents．Sometimes the name of a grandparent or other member of the family is used．Some parents choose the name of a well-known person．A boy could be named George Washington Smith; a girl could be named Helen Keller Jones．

       Some people give their children names that mean good things．Clara means “bright”; Beatrice means “one who gives happiness”; Donald means “world ruler”; Leonard means “as brave as a lion”．

       The earliest last names, or surnames, were taken from place names．A family with the name Brook or Brooks probably lived near a brook （小溪）; someone who was called Longstreet probably lived on a long, paved road．The Greenwood family lived in or near a leafy forest．

       Other early surnames came from people’s occupations．The most common occupational name is Smith, which means a person who makes things with iron or other metals．In the past, smiths were very important workers in every town and village．Some other occupational names are: Carter—a person who owned or drove a cart; Potter—a person who made pots and pans．

       The ancestors of the Baker family probably baked bread for their neighbors in their native village．The Carpenter’s great-great-great-grandfather probably built houses and furniture．

       Sometimes people were known for the color of their hair or skin, or their size, or their special abilities．When there were two men who were named John in the same village, the John with gray hair probably became John Gray．Or the John who was very tall could call himself John Tallman．John Fish was probably an excellent swimmer and John Lightfoot was probably a fast runner or a good dancer．

       Some family names were made by adding something to the father’s name．English-speaking people added –s or –son．The Johnsons are descendants of John; the Roberts family’s ancestor was Robert．Irish and Scottish people added Mac or Mc or O．Perhaps all of the MacDonnells and the O’Donnells are descendants of the same Donnell．

1．Which of the following aspects do the surnames in the passage NOT cover?

       A．Places where people lived．                  B．People’s characters．

       C．Talents that people possessed．            D．People’s occupations．

2．According to the passage, the ancestors of the Potter family most probably _______．

       A．owned or drove a cart                          B．made things with metals

       C．made kitchen tools or containers．        D．built houses and furniture．

3．Suppose an English couple whose ancestors lived near a leafy forest wanted their new-born son to become a world leader, the baby might be named ________．

       A．Beatrice Smith                                  B．Leonard Carter

       C．George Longstreet                              D．Donald Greenwood

3、根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

Ten ways to Avoid the Flu

       Get a flu shot, particularly if you are 50 or over．In addition, consider a flu shot if you are in regular contact with many people, especially if you live in a dormitory or work in an open-plan office, where hundreds of people are coughing and sneezing in a common area．

       _1 One recent study found that families whose children in daycare were immunized had 42% fewer infections with fever than those whose children weren’t immunized．

Wash your hands frequently and thoroughly．A quick washing won’t do the trick．_2

       Keep your hands away from your face to reduce the chance of delivering viruses directly to your eyes or nose．_3

       Make certain you’re getting vitamin E and other complex vitamins and minerals including A, C and B. These have properties（特性）that improve immune response．_4

       Don’t smoke．Smoke stops the hair like cells in the nose and airways from sweeping incoming viruses away before they can infect people．

       Use paper handkerchiefs, not cloth handkerchiefs to reduce spread of infection．

       Reduce stress．Research has shown that immune responses are weakened by stress．

       Get seven to nine hours of sleep a night．Lack of sleep can reduce your immune response．

       5  Longtime heavy drinkers suffer from more colds and flu than others do, and even regular moderate use of alcohol can weaken immune response．

       A. Children who are in a large family are easy to get flu．

       B. To kill germs, experts recommend washing with soap for 15 to 30 seconds．

       C. One study found that people typically touched their face fifteen times in an hour．

       D. Many people are used to touching their faces when the flu is spreading．

       E. Discuss with your doctor whether to immunize（使免疫）your children in daycare．;

       F. Studies on older mice have shown that those with reduced levels of vitamin E were more likely to be infected．

       G. Reduce alcohol consumption（消費量）．

       Last Sunday I saw a worst storm in years．It came sudden and went on for over three hours．After lunch, I went into my room to have a rest．The air was hotter, and all is quiet．Then a strong wind started to blow into my room．Pieces of paper on my desk flew high into the air and some flew out the open window．As I ran out to catch them, big drop of rain began to fall．When I came back into house, it was raining harder and harder．I tried very hard to close the window．Then I heard a loudly crashing sound from the back of the house．When I ran out of my room to find out what had happened: a big tree had fallen down and broke the top of the backroom．
