It warmed my heart today to walk into the Thirsty Camel downtown in the Thanksgiving Day, for a quick lunch before a haircut and library trip. Ihan, a food shop owner, said that he was refusing to take money today because it was Buy Nothing Day. To increase awareness(意识) of the strange over spending nature of our society, Ilan suggested a trade for food today. He simply asked that you offer something of equal personal value for the meal you received. At first I was really uncomfortable, wondering if it would be fair to exchange a yet to be determined “I Owe You” (IOU) for food? What could I give him of equal value? After all, his food is the best in the town! We ended up writing our IOU's with promises of a book, some paintings and the offer of work in a variety of ways if he needs it. I think the idea isn't that the trade is "equal" so much as the importance of the kind of <u>transaction</u>. We put thought into our offer and we had an even greater understanding for the meals we ate. We don't buy a lot, especially at this upcoming time of year. We don't give gifts at all in fact. The holiday time is spent enjoying each other's company and doing things together with family and friends. This is what seems most sensible. Ilan is a good person. We are all lucky to have someone like this in our community. 【1】Ilan did not take any money that day in order to_________. A. have a quick lunch before a haircut and library trip B. buy nothing that day to save some money C. make people aware of their over spending D. trade for something of equal value in return 【2】For the meal, the author finally offered Ilan ________. A. some promises B. a book C. some paintings D. work in different ways 【3】Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “transaction”? A. transport B. trade C. meal D. giving 【4】What is the author’s attitude to Buy Nothing Day? A. Disagreeable B. Meaningless. C. Supportive. D. Doubtful. |

The Ministry of Construction has released the names of the first group of 20 national parks, including 9 Suzhou classical gardens: Zhuozheng Garden, Liu Garden, Wangshi Garden, Huanxiu Villa, Lion Grove, Yipu Garden, Ou Garden, Tuisi Garden and Canglang Pavilion. National parks refer to the famous city parks and gardens. Suzhou classical gardens are parts of China's precious cultural heritage (遗产) (all the 9 gardens are on the list of World Cultural Heritage) as well as a necessary part of the life of Suzhou citizens, not to mention they are also world-famous tourism resorts (胜地). In fact, their unique historical and cultural background serves to contribute to their ranking among national parks. The earliest classical gardens in Suzhou can date back to the Song Dynasty. However, the gardens impress their visitors not only with their age-old history but also with their delicate scenes, particularly Canglang Pavilion, Zhuozheng Garden, Lion Grove and Liu Garden, the most famous four that represent different styles of dynasties of Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing. In 1978, an imitation（仿造物） of a Suzhou classical garden was set up by Chen Congzhou (the author of the book Suzhou Classical Gardens) in the City Museum of Art in New York, US, which was the first time ever to directly introduce Chinese ancient architecture to Westerners. 【1】________parks and gardens are selected as National Parks in the first group. A. 9 B. 8 C. 20 D. 4 【2】Which of the following statements about Suzhou classical gardens is NOT true? A. They are parts of China's precious cultural heritage. B. They are world-famous tourism resorts. C. They are a necessary part of the life of Suzhou citizens. D. They came into being at the same time. 【3】Which of the following can best explain the meaning of the underlined word "delicate"? A. astonishing B. delicious C. beautiful D. impressive 【4】The first imitation of a Suzhou classical garden was set up in ________. A. London B. New York C. Paris D. Tokyo |

Nearly 300 miles long, up to 18 miles across and 4000 vertical（垂直的） feet down, the 8th new wonder: the splendid Grand Canyon（峡谷）. Viewing its glory, President Theodore Roosevelt called the Grand Canyon "a natural wonder， absolutely unparalleled（无比的）throughout the rest of the world". He urged Americans to preserve what he described as the "wonderful greatness, the nobleness, the great loneliness and the beauty of the canyon". More than a hundred years later, it's still easy to see why almost 5 million annual visitors call the Grand Canyon a wonder. The canyon stretches as far as the eye can see. Some 5 or 6 million years ago, the Colorado River rushed through this land, carving out the massive canyon we see today, exposing even older layers of rock previously buried. Geologists say some are 2,000 million years old. Native Americans were the first people to make these rocky walls as their homes about 12,000 years ago. Today the Hualapi and Havasupai Indians live deep in the canyon, balancing age-old traditions with modernity. There are no roads to this village; mules carry the mail here. But at the same time, the tribes are designing a skywalk that promises an excellent view over the canyon early next year. The bald eagle, wild and endangered American icon is another longtime resident of the Grand Canyon. 【1】It was ___ that rushed through the land and then the Grand Canyon came into being A. the Nile River B. the Colorado River C. the River of Babylon D. the Amazon River 【2】The tribes living in the canyon are building ___. A. a road B. a bridge C. a skywalk D. a railway 【3】Which of the following statements about the bald eagle is NOT true according to the passage? A. The bald eagle is becoming endangered. B. The bald eagle has lived in the Grand Canyon for a long time. C. The American icon is the bald eagle. D. The bald eagle is a kind of tame bird. 【4】The passage mainly introduces ___. A. the Arizona plains. B. the bald eagle C. the Colorado River D. the 8th new wonder of the world : the Grand Canyon |

How old is “old” ? 【1】. Two hundred years ago, you were old at 35. That was the average life then. At the turn of this century, as medical knowledge advanced, the average life span(长度) increased to 45. In 1950, 70-year-olds were really old.

Nobody grows old by living a number of years; people grow old by giving up their goals.” 【4】. Alice Brophy, when she was with the New York City commission for the Aging, said, “It upsets me when people say, ‘Gee, you look young for your age!’ What does that mean? Is there some model that you’re supposed to look a certain way at 65 and 75 and 85? You know you can die old at 30 and live young at 80” There are many wrong ideas about aging.【5】. Here are some of the more common ones.For example, most older people are in poor health, or older people are unable to change. A. It’s extremely terrible to be grown old. B. Youth is not a time of life but it is a state of mind. C. These ideas stereotype(固化) people on the basis of age. D. Old is a point of view. E. Older people are stubborn, unable to change. F. The answer has changed over the years. G. Your body tells you how well you’ve lived. |
