    Directions: The following people are expressing their thoughts (1--4) to show their concern for food, environment and so on. After that are pieces of related information (A--E). Now decide which piece of information would be most suitable for the thought and idea mentioned in questions1---4 and mark your answer letter (A---E) on your answer sheet. There is one extra paragraph which you do not need to use.
    ______小题1: How I was struck by the clear water and fresh air in my childhood! But everything has changed, that is, the clear water and fresh air are nowhere to be found again as they were. Above all, a great deal of waste hardly rots away.
    _____小题2:More and more people are beginning to have a good knowledge of the importance of a safer and cleaner environment, which in turn forces the business to be cleaned up.
    ____小题3: I’m very much fond of growing some vegetables of my own in my small garden, for many vegetables on sale in markets are actually becoming more and more dangerous as a result of widespread pesticides.
    ____小题4: Nowadays it is very convenient for consumers to find and buy green food in supermarkets as they are clearly marked.
    A．“Organic produce is always better,” Gold said. “The food is free of pesticides, and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms. And more often than not it is locally grown and seasonal, so it is more tasty.” Gold is one of a growing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend, and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business.
    B．The concern for a safer and cleaner environment is making companies rethink how they do business. No longer will the public accept the old attitude of “Buy it, use it, throw it away, and forget it.” The public pressure is on, and gradually business is cleaning up its act.[
    C．Many cities around the world today are heavily polluted. Careless methods of production and lack of consumer demand for environment-friendly products have contributed to the pollution problem. One result is that millions of tons of glass, paper, plastic, and metal containers are produced, and these are difficult to get rid of.
    D．Only a few years ago, it was impossible to find green products in supermarkets, but now there are hundreds. Some supermarket products carry labels (标签) to show that the product is green. Some companies have made the manufacturing (制造) of clean and safe products their main selling point and emphasize it in their advertising.
    E. Market research shows that Gold and others who buy organic food can generally give clear reasons for their preferences - but their knowledge of organic food is far from complete. For example, small amounts of pesticides can be used on organic products. And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is not local but imported to meet growing demand. “The demand for organic food is increasing by about one third every year, so it is a very fast-growing market,” said Sue Flock, a specialist in this line of business.

    One morning more than thirty years ago, I entered the Track Kitchen, a restaurant where everyone from the humblest(卑微的)to the most powerful came for breakfast. I noticed an empty chair next to an elderly, unshaven man, who looked somewhat untidy. He was wearing a worn-out hat and was alone. I asked if I might join him. He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast.
    We cautiously began a conversation and spoke about a wide rang of things. We never introduced ourselves. I was concerned that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat. So as I rose to go back to the counter and buy a second cup of coffee, I asked,
    “May I get you something ?”
    “A coffee would be nice.”
    Then I bought him a cup of coffee. We talked more, and he accepted another cup of coffee. Finally, I rose to leave, wished him well, and headed for the exit. At the door I met one of my friends. He asked,
    “How did you get to know Mr. Gal breath?”
    “Who?”
    “The man you were sitting with. He is chairman of the Board of Churchill Downs.”
    I could hardly believe it. I was buying, offering a free breakfast, and feeling pity for one of the world’s richest and most powerful men!
    My few minutes with Mr. Gal breath changed my life. Now I try to treat everyone with respect, no matter who I think they are, and to meet another human being with kindness and sincerity.
    小题1:The author bought coffee for the old man because     
    A．he thought the old man was poorB．he wanted to start a conversation
    C．he intended to show his politenessD．he would like to thank the old man
    小题2:How did the author probably feel after he talked with his friend?
    A．Proud.B．Pitiful.C．Surprised.D．Regretful
    小题3:What is the message mainly expressed in the story?

    B．It is honorable to help those in need.
    C．People in high positions are not like what we expect.

    Andy Tomas is proof of the typical case that life-changing disaster awaits the drunken driver.
    “A lot of teachers say, ‘Don’t drink,’ but I’m not going to say that, because I know that students are going to do it,” Andy says. “I just say, ‘Don’t get in a car.’”
    As an 18-year-old, he could be a classmate or a friend, and that familiarity adds to the power of his words. He has spoken to more than 2500 high school students so far, and he has noticed their unusual silence.
    One year ago, Andy, having been with friends drinking, lost control of his car and was thrown into trees 20 feet away. He was found covered in blood, with many bones broken. He was diagnosed with a severe brain injury and remained in an unconscious state and on life support for nearly three weeks. His skull was opened to reduce pressure on his brain.
    At Children’s Specialized Hospital in New Brunswick, Doctor Erin Leahy initially found Andy unable to move the right side of his body. But by the end of his six-week stay, he was able to walk out of the building. Leahy called that an inspiration and a surprise.
    Yet Andy’s recovery is incomplete. Brain and muscular therapy(治疗) has helped him regain movement in his right arm, but he still struggles with right hand.
    In the process of recovery, Andy has thought deeply about what happened and why, and decided to share his story. Encouraged by his doctor, he began to attending meetings, delivering speeches.
    He said he was nervous at first, but has grown used to the spotlight. “I feel like I know how to talk to people.” He said. And his recovery and visible injury help him draw serious attention from students.
    Drunk driving, he tells students, is like playing gambles. “You might do it a bunch of times, but something is going to happen.”
    Now his days are all about the therapy, work and going to the gym. Mentally, he says, “ I’m a lot happier in my life.”
    小题1: What’s the main purpose of the author?
    A．Warn students about the danger of drinking.
    B．Tell readers the danger of driving a car.
    C．Advise people not to drive a car after drinking.
    D．Show readers Andy’s amazing recovery experience.
    小题2:Why does the author say Andy’s story is powerful as an 18-year-old boy?
    A．Because his family supported him and cared for him carefully.
    B．Because he is just like one of our classmates or friends.
    C．Because doctors and family never gave him up.[
    D．Because his classmates and friends are familiar with him.
    小题3:What does the underlined sentence mean?
    A．Drunk driving will be fined a lot of money eventually.
    B．Drunk driving will eventually have a serious accident.
    C．Drunk driving is as adventurous and thrilled as gamble.
    D．Drunk driving is banned even if you are an experienced driver.
    小题4:What happened to Andy after the accident?
    A．He made a full recovery and returned to his normal life.
    B．He recovered quite well at an unbelievable speed.
    C．He became more experienced and eager for more adventures.
    D．He shared his stories with others to warn them not to try drunk driving.

    The 16-year-old girl Jessica Watson is said to be the youngest person to sail non-stop alone around the world. But her record has been questioned because someone thought that she has not sailed far enough. She will also not be recognized by the World Speed Sailing Record Council, as it was too dangerous for someone under 18 years old.
    Ms Watson sailed into Sydney port on Saturday, seven months after leaving on a hard voyage. Family, friends and Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd have gathered to greet her. Thousands of well-wishers waited at the port and watched from boats as Ms Watson sailed her pink, 10m boat over the finishing line. Many more Australians watched the event broadcast live on television. Watson said she was just an “ordinary girl who believed in her dream”.
    Ms Watson left Sydney on 18 October, despite that some people disagreed her plan. Watson traveled northeast through the South Pacific and across the equator (赤道), south to Cape Horn at the tip of South America, across the Atlantic Ocean to South Africa, through the Indian Ocean and around southern Australia. The route took her through some of the world’s most changeful waters, and she battled through huge storms and suffered seven accidents of her boat.
    People around the world have followed Ms Watson’s adventures on her blog, which she has daily updated (更新). On her blog, she wrote down beautiful sunrise over seas, the excitement of meeting a blue whale and the bright, terrible sight of a shooting star flying across the night sky above her boat. Ms Watson has reportedly sold her story to a news company for $700,000. She is planning to write a book on her experience.
    小题1: Which of the following oceans didn’t Ms Watson cross through in her voyage?
    A．The Pacific Ocean B．The Atlantic Ocean
    C．The Indian OceanD．The Arctic Ocean.
    小题2:Ms Watson’s voyage will NOT be considered an official world record mainly because ____.
    A．no one can prove that her route was dangerous enough
    B．she hasn’t applied for the record
    C．girls are not allowed to take part in the dangerous sports
    D．teenagers re not encouraged to take such a dangerous adventure
    小题3: We can make a conclusion from this passage that Watson ____.
    A．would make another voyage for money
    B．made the world round voyage for money
    C．had no way to communicate with others during the voyage.
    D．is so confident and brave that she could overcome troubles on her own
    小题4:All the following can be inferred from this passage EXCEPT that ____.
    A．her book about her voyage is a best seller
    B．people in Australia had much interest in her voyage
    C．she spent more than 200 days alone at sea

    I live in Hollywood. You may think people in such an attractive, fun-filled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness.
    　　Many intelligent people still equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in common. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is a deeper, more abiding emotion.
    　　Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh. But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends.
    I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun. These rich, beautiful individuals have constant access to glamorous parties, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells “happiness”.
    But in memoir（回忆录） after memoir, celebrities reveal the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism, drug addiction, broken marriages, troubled children and profound loneliness.
    The way people stick to the belief that a fun-filled, pain-free life equates happiness actually reduces their chances of ever obtaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equated with happiness, then pain must be equated with unhappiness. But, in fact, the opposite is true: More times than not, things that lead to happiness involve some pain.
    As a result, many people avoid the very endeavors that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment, civic or charitable work, and self-improvement.
    小题1:What does the author want to tell us? He wants to tell us             .
    A．he lives in Hollywood, so he feels not happy
    B．the true meaning of happiness
    C．in fact, famous people are not very happy
    D．happiness is not equal to fun
    小题2:What is many intelligent people’s viewpoint about happiness?
    A．Happiness just means having fun.B．Happiness is not equal to fun.
    C．Happiness means doing what you like.D．Happiness means being rich.
    小题3:What does the underlined word “equate” in the second paragraph mean? It means    .
    A．compareB．think
    C．similar or connectedD．match
    小题4:According to the passage, the author may agree        .
    A．amusement park can bring us happiness
    B．fun will bring some happiness to us
    C．pain will bring us happiness
    D．efforts can bring us happiness

    The cars were honking （鸣叫） on the road one morning as I was walking to the park．I walked on and soon found the cause — a little taxi that had got stuck in the middle of the road．There was sweat on the driver's face as he tried to start the engine again and again — nothing happened．"No petrol,"
    I said to myself and then found myself getting angry．"Why doesn't the fool move his taxi to the side?" I thought, so did all the others who honked and shouted．
    He got up tiredly, and the passenger in the taxi got out．He was a young man in a white shirt, who watched the driver try to push it to the side．"Stupid guy!" I said．"Can't he lend a helping hand? "
    I watched as the poor driver pushed it to the side．Cars, buses and trucks went past cursing （咒骂） the poor man．The young man took another taxi and went off．
    The taxi driver began mending his taxi．"Stupid passenger!" I said to him．"He didn't help you!" The taxi driver slowly got up．"Sir!" he asked, "Did you?" I looked at him guiltily, then looked away, and walked away fast, asking myself, "Did I help the poor man push his taxi?"
    What had I been doing as the traffic jam took place? How had I helped deal with the problem? Did I help the poor man push his taxi? I’d done my bit, with my mouth．But never had I moved to solve the problem．I was shocked with guilt as I heard him asking, "Sir! Did you?"
    小题1:Why did a traffic jam happen on the road when the author was walking to the park?
    A．There was too much traffic in the street．
    B．Truck drivers attempted to go ahead of others．
    C．A taxi driver couldn't start his engine．
    D．A young man wasn't good at driving．
    小题2:The author's attitude toward the passenger is that of __________．
    A．angerB．respectC．sympathyD．guilt
    小题3:Why did the author feel guilty?
    A．Because he blamed the driver wrongly．
    B．Because he didn't help the driver, either．
    C．Because he tried to help but failed in the end．
    D．Because he didn't persuade the passenger to help．
    小题4:From the incident, the author learnt a lesson that we should     _________．
    A．criticize those who don't help
    B．hurt the self-respect of others no more
    C．think more of those who are in need
    D．stop talking and start to help
