To their disappointment, I became less confident and didn’t want to work harder because, to me, there was no point in making any more efforts if I was unable to be number one. My grades began to fall, I never practiced the piano, I _________painting. It was all because motivation(动力）to do anything had dropped much.

A Growing Plan Drew, Emilio, and Michi sat at a picnic table in the City Park in Oklahoma. They didn’t care about the sounds around them. They just focused on the task they had planned to complete. They wanted to start a school garden at Jefferson Middle School. At first, it was Dew’s idea. He first saw a school garden when he visited his cousin P. J. in Washington. He was surprised at the variety of fruits and vegetables the students at P. J.’ s school grew. When Drew returned from his trip, he told his friends all about what he had seen. Now the three of them decided to make a plan to make Ms. Milano, the school headmaster (校长), believe that the garden was a good idea. “We are going to need a teacher to guide us through the project, ” said Drew. “ I know that Mr. Hasselbach gardens at home. Just last week he brought in a whole basket of tomatoes from his garden. He might be happy to help.” Drew wrote down Mr. Hasselbach’s name in his notebook. “We might need some money to get the project up and running,” added Michi. “We could tell Ms. Milano that we will organize a book sale to raise money.” “That’s a great idea,” said Emilio. “ My aunt is a co-owner of a nursery (苗圃). She can help us design the garden, select plants, and create a budget (预算).” Drew nodded and made some more notes. “If we have a garden, think of all the lessons we’ve learnt. We’ll have to measure and weigh things. We can practice what we learn in the science lessons. There is no way that Ms. Milano could refuse us!” Michi and Emilio smiled. “If everything goes as planned, we’ll be digging in the dirt very soon!” 【1】How would the three students get money for the project? A.By organizing a book sale. B.By working in a science lab. C.By selling tomatoes to teachers. D.By asking their relatives for help. 【2】Who would help design the garden? A.Ms. Milano. B.Mr. Hasselbach. C.Emilio’s aunt. D.Drew’s cousin. 【3】What do we know about the three students from the passage? A.They were afraid of the headmaster. B.They were bored with science lessons. C.They were good at the work in the garden. D.They were confident about their plan at last. |

Need to buy something? Why go to a store? Buy it on the Internet! Need it now? Why wait? Ask for next-day delivery! Each day, more and more people try online shopping. In fact, online sales have doubled in the last ten years. But not everyone is excited. Some scientists now say that online shopping is bad for the environment. People are surprised to hear this. “They think, ‘I don’t need to drive, and the business doesn’t need to build a store, so there will be less pollution,’” says Nuria Prost, an environmental scientist. “But it is not so simple. In fact, online shopping is wasteful. It also adds to air pollution.” In truth, the Internet is not always as good a friend to the environment as it seems. For example, most people thought that the Internet would help offices use less paper and other materials. But paper use increased by 33 percent between 1986 and 1997. “Online shopping could have similarly negative effects,” says Nevil Cohen, a professor of environmental science. Part of the problem is what people are buying these days. In the past, people bought things on the Internet that did not require much packing material, such as books and clothing. But now people also shop online for large, heavy products such as televisions, computers, and furniture. These products need to be packed in large amounts of plastic and paper. This creates a lot of waste. Another problem caused by online shopping is air pollution. When customers buy products and ask for next-day delivery, companies often have to send them by air. Airplanes use much more fuel than cars and produce more carbon dioxide (CO2). When people buy a lot of different things from different online businesses, this creates even more travel by airplane. Online product returns are also a problem. For example, an online shoe store may allow customers to return shoes without extra pay if they are the wrong size. This doubles the packing material and number of airplane trips required to sell one pair of shoes. “If people want to protect the environment, they need to think before they shop,” says Prost. “People need to ask themselves: Is this exactly what I want? Do I really need it tomorrow, or can I wait?” Online stores can also charge（收费 ）customers for returns. This may make people shop more carefully. “Online shopping is fast and easy,” says Prost, “but we can’t forget the negative effects it has on the environment.” 【1】Why does online shopping create a lot of waste? A.Because companies charge more for product returns. B.Because paper use has increased by 33 percent from 1986 to 1997. C.Because large, heavy products require much packing material. D.Because people buy too many things they don’t need. 【2】Prost probably agrees that________. A.people should drive to stores to buy things B.online shopping saves more than shopping in a store C.people can buy things online without careful consideration D.online shopping adds pollution to the environment 【3】What is probably the best title of the passage? A.A Good Deal to Make? B.A Cleaner Way to Shop? C.A New Business to Start? D.A Different Lifestyle to Keep? |

“You expect your friends to see you in a positive manner, but they also are observers of the personalities that could cause you an early death,” said Joshua Jackson, an assistant professor of psychology in Arts & Sciences. Published in the journal Psychological Science, the study shows that your personality at an early age can predict how long you will live across 75 years and that close friends are usually better than you at recognizing these traits. “Our study shows that people are able to observe and evaluate（评价）a friend’s personality exactly enough to predict early death years down the road,” Jackson said. “It suggests that people are able to see important characteristics related to health even when their friends were, for the most part, healthy and many years from death.” While other studies have shown that a person’s view of his or her own personality can be helpful in evaluating death risks, there has been little research on whether a close friend’s personality evaluation might also predict the chances of a long life. To explore this question, Jackson and colleagues analyzed data（数据）from a longitudinal study that in the 1930s began following a group of young people in their mid-20s. The study included wide-ranging data on participant（参与者）personalities, both self-reported and as reported by close friends. Using information from follow-up studies and searches of death certificates（ 证 书 ）, Jackson and colleagues were able to record dates of death for all but a few study participants. Peer（同龄人）evaluations of personality were stronger predictors of death risks than were self-evaluations of personality. “There are two possible reasons for the advantage of peer evaluations over self- evaluations,” Jackson said. “First, friends may see something that you miss; they may have some insight that you do not. Second, because people have several friends, we are able to average the characteristics of any one friend to get a more trustworthy evaluation of personality. With self-reports, people may miss certain sides of themselves and we are not able to counteract（抵抗）that because there is only one you, only one self-report.” The study also shows some gender differences in self-evaluation: Men’s self-evaluations of personality were somewhat useful in predicting their lifespans（寿命）, whereas the self-reports of women had little predictive value. “This is one of the longest studies in psychology,” Jackson said. “It shows how important personality is in influencing important life outcomes like health, and that information from friends can play a critical role in understanding a person’s health issues. 【1】What can we learn from Paragraph 2? A.People’s health is related to their friends. B.An early personality evaluation helps us live longer. C.The study shows most people can live across 75 years. D.Friends can predict lifespans better than us. 【2】The underlined word “insight” in Paragraph 6 probably means “________”. A.advice B.understanding C.influence D.imagination 【3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A.Men predict their lifespans more exactly than women. B.People with more close friends have better personalities. C.Self-evaluations have advantages over peer evaluations. D.The findings are based on participants’ disease data. 【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph? A.Psychology studies may influence personality development. B.Best friends play an important role in treating certain diseases. C.Friends’ personality evaluations can help recognize health risks. D.Personality has little important effect on people’s health. |

阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 I love travelling so you can imagine my disappointment when I know that my local train station would be closed for five months. Unfortunately I do not have a car but I realized that I could start carpooling. Carpooling is the sharing of car journeys so that more than one person travels in a car. As a result, carpooling can be a cheaper choice than public transport because everyone in the car shares the cost of petrol (汽油). I recently did carpooling for the first time and it was very easy to find a driver. I used a website which lists drivers’ descriptions and found someone who was going to the same place as me. The descriptions provided a lot of information such as the driver’s first name, age and gender as well as reviews form previous (以前的)passengers. I decided to travel with a lady who had very good reviews. I paid for my share of the petrol through the website and planned to meet her in the town center. It may seem quite dangerous to travel with strangers but there are some safety actions. Firstly, the driver cannot receive your money until you text him or her a code (密码) at the end of your journey. This means that if you are unsatisfied with your trip, the driver will not be paid. Secondly, it is important to read quite a number of the drivers’ descriptions and reviews when you choose a driver. Lastly, I would suggest travelling with a friend so that you will feel safer and less lonely. I had a very good experience of carpooling. Not only was the trip very cheap, but the driver and the other passengers were really friendly. They were all French so I had the chance to practice speaking some French. As train and petrol prices are rising, both drivers and passengers can benefit from this cheaper form of travel. More importantly,, carpooling provides a fantastic opportunity to meet interesting people on your travels. 【1】How did the writer usually travel before starting carpooling? _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【2】Who pays for the petrol when people do carpooling? _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【3】When can the driver receive the money from a passenger? _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【4】To keep safe, what does a passenger need to do when choosing a driver? _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【5】In the writer’s opinion, what are the advantages of carpooling? _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ |
