    There was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care. To water his flowers, he used two buckers. One was a shiny and new bucket. The other was a very old and dilapidated one, which had seen many years of service, but was now past its best.
    Every morning, the gardener would fill up the two buckets. Then he would carry them along the path, one on each side, to the flowerbeds. The new bucket was very proud of itself. It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled (溢出). The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds, much water had leaked along the path.
    Sometimes the new bucket would say, “See how capable I am! How good it is that the gardener has me to water the flowers every day! I don't know why he still bothers with you. What a waste of space you are!”
    And all that the old bucket could say was, “I know I’m not very useful, but I can only do my best. I’m happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me, at least.”
    One day, the gardener heard that kind or conversation. After watering the flowers as usual, he said, “You both have done your work very well. Now I am going to carry you back. I want you to look carefully along the path.”
    Then the two buckets did so. All along the path, they noticed, on the side where the new bucket was carried, there was just bare (光秃秃的)earth; on the other side where the old bucket was carried, there was a joyous row of wild flowers, leading all the way to the garden.
    小题1:What does the underlined word “dilapidated” probably mean?
    A．DirtyB．Dark
    C．Worn-outD．Plain-looking.
    小题2:What was the old bucket ashamed of?
    A．His past.B．His aging.
    C．His manner.D．His leaking.
    小题3:The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to         
    A．laugh at the old one
    B．take pity on the old one
    C．show off its beautiful looks
    D．praise the gardener’s kindness
    小题4:Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?
    A．Because it was used to keep a balance
    B．Because it stayed in its best condition
    C．Because it was taken as a treasure
    D．Because it had its own function

    Trees should only be pruned (修剪) when there is a good and clear reason for doing so and , the number of such reasons is small. Pruning involves the cutting away of overgrown and unwanted branches, and the inexperienced gardener can be encouraged by the thought that more damage results from doing it unnecessarily than from leaving the tree to grow in its own way.
    First, pruning may be done to make sure that trees have desired shape or size. The object may be to get a tree of the right height, and at the same time to help the growth of small side branches, which will thicken its appearance or give it a special shape. Secondly, pruning may be done to make the tree healthier. You may cut out diseased or dead wood, or branches that are rubbing against each other and thus cause wounds. The health of a tree may be encouraged by removing branches that are blocking up the center and so preventing the free movement of air.
    One result of pruning is that an open wound is left on the tree and this provides an easy entry for disease , but it is a wound that will heal (愈合). Often there is a race between the healing and the disease as to whether the tree will live or die, so that there is a period when the tree is at risk. It should be the aim of every gardener to reduce that risk of death as far as possible. It is important to make the area, which has been pruned, smooth and clean, for healing will be slowed down by roughness. You should allow the cut surface to dry for a few hours and then paint it with one of the materials available from garden shops produced especially for this purpose. Pruning is usually done in winter , for then you can see the shape of the tree clearly without interference (妨碍) from the leaves and also it is very unlikely that the cuts you make will bleed. If this does happen, it is, of course, impossible to paint them properly .
    小题1:．Why should pruning be done?
    A．To make the tree grow taller.B．To improve the shape of the tree.
    C．to get rid of the small ranches .D．To make the small branches thicker.
    小题2:．Trees become unhealthy if the gardener__________.
    A．giving a tree a special shape and a definite height
    B．removing small side branches and making a tree look less thick
    C．allowing too many branches to grow in the middle
    D．having a tree surrounded by many other trees
    小题3:．Why is a special material painted on the tree?
    A．To help a wound to dry.B．to cover a rough surface.
    C．To make a wound smooth.D．To prevent disease entering a wound.
    小题4:．A good gardener prunes a tree _________ .
    A．several times throughout the year B．as quickly as possible
    C．occasionally when necessaryD．regularly every winter
    小题5:．What was the author’s purpose when writing this passage?
    A．To discuss different methods of pruning.
    B．To introduce some common knowledge of pruning.
    C．To explain how trees develop disease.
    D．To give practical instruction for pruning a tree.

    Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side.
    Most people know this joke. But recently, some people have been much more worried about how the grizzly bear and mountain lion can cross the road.
    “Millions of animals die each year on U.S. roads,” the Federal Highway Administration reports. In fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the U.S. today. The main reason? Roadkill.
    “Eco-passages” may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. They are paths both over and under roads. “These eco-passages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid road accidents,” said Jodi Hilty of the Wildlife Protection Society.
    But do animals actually use the eco-passages?  The answer is yes. Paul Beier of Northern Arizona University found foot marks left by mountain lions on an eco-passage that went under a highway.  This showed that the lions used the passage.
    Builders of eco-passages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around them. Animals seem to be catching on. Animals as different as salamanders（火蜥蜴）and grizzly bears are using the bridges and underpasses.
    The next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around.  You might see an animal overpass!
    小题1: The writer uses the example of “ocelots” to show that __________.
    A．wild animals have become more dangerous
    B．the driving condition has improved greatly
    C．an increasing number of animals are killed in road accidents
    D．the measure for protecting wildlife fails to work
    小题2:From the story, we know an eco-passage is __________.
    A．an underground path for cars
    B．a fence built for the safety of the area
    C．a bridge for animals to get over a river
    D．a path for animals to cross the road
    小题3: When the writer says that “animals seem to be catching on” (Para. 6), he means __________.
    A．animals begin to realize the dangers on the road
    B．animals are crossing the road in groups
    C．animals are increasing in number
    D．animals begin to learn to use eco-passages
    小题4: The writer asks visitors and drivers to look around when traveling because __________.
    A．wild animals may attack carsB．they may see wild animals on eco-passages
    C．they may see wild animals in the parkD．wild animals may jam the road
    小题5: The best title for the passage is __________.
    A．Special bridges help animals cross the road
    B．Endangered animals increase because of roadkill
    C．Animals fail to cross the road
    D．Take steps to protect animals in danger

    All sorts of items become litter(垃圾) but two of the most common and most dangerous are cigarette butts（烟头) and plastic bags. Litter is a big problem for our environment but it is a problem that individuals can easily do something about. Not littering at all or cleaning up litter, such as  cigarette butts and plastic bags, greatly improves the quality of our environment.
    Although cigarette butts, are small, they are bad for the environment. Over 1,600 billion cigarette are smoked each year in China and large quantities of the butts are thrown away. Worldwide, about 4. 5 trillion butts are littered every year. Apart from the fact that butts spoil the beauty of the environment, they contain some very toxic chemicals. These find their way into the water supply where they decrease the quality of the water and endanger plants and animals that live there. So, if people have to smoke, they shouldn't throw away the butts but put them in the rubbish bin instead.
    Plastic bags are another common form of litter that is a danger to the environment. There areseveral reasons for this. They are made from oil and gas, which are non—renewable resources. If they are not recycled, these resources are lost to us. In China, 2 billion plastic bags are used every day. An enormous number of these become litter. This is a huge problem because they last from 20 to 1,000 years in the environment. They float easily in the air and water and travel long distances. They find their way to rivers, parks, beaches and oceans. Plastic bags kill up to one million seabirds, 100, 000 sea mammals and countless fish each year worldwide. It is up to people not to let plastic bags become litter. It would be better if they used fewer and recycled them.
    Cleaning up your cigarette butts and plastic bags would improve the environment. And we would know that we were doing something to look after our planet. However, I believe the best solution would be not to smoke or use plastic bags at all.
    小题1: Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
    A           B.         C.          D.
    ( ①=" paragraph" 1; ②=" paragraph" 2; ③=" paragraph" 3; ④a paragraph 4 )
    小题2:The word “toxic” in the paragraph 2 most probably mean “________”
    A．preciousB．extraC．poisonousD．useless
    小题3: From the text. we know the fact that_________
    A．Chinese smokers litter up to 4. 5 trillion butts every year
    B．people in the world use 2 billion plastic bags in a single day
    C．plastic bags cause 1 million deaths of seabirds each year worldwide
    D．the butts can last 20 to 1,000 years in the environment of China
    小题4: What's probably the best title of the passage?. Clean Up Your
    A．Say Goodbye to SmokinB．Protect the Endangered Sea Animals .C．Use Paper Bags NowD．Clean Up Your Butts and Bags

    It’s 2035. You have a job, a family and you’re about 40 years old. Welcome to your future life.     Getting ready for work, you pause in front of the mirror, “Turn red,” you say. Your shirt changes from sky blue to deep red. Tiny preprogrammed electronic（智能电子元件） is rearranged in your shirt to change its color. Looking into the mirror, you find it hard to believe that you are 40. You look much younger. With amazing advances in medicine, people in your generation may live to be 150 years old. You’re not even middle-aged.
    As you go into the kitchen and prepare to pour your breakfast cereal into a bowl, you hear: “To lose weight, you shouldn’t eat that,” from your shoes. They read the tiny electronic code（电 子源码）on the cereal box to find out the nutrition details. You decide to listen to your shoes. “Kitchen, what can I have for breakfast?” A list of possible food appears on the counter as kitchen checks its food supplies.
    “Ready for your trip to space?” you ask your son and daughter. In 2005 only specially trained astronauts went into space—and very few of them. Today anyone can go to space for day trip or longer vacation. Your best friend even works in space. Handing your children three strawberries each, you add, “The doctor said you need these for space travel.” Thanks to medical advice, vaccination shots（防疫针） are a thing of the past. Ordinary foods contain specific vaccines. With the berries in their mouths, the kids head for the front door.
    It’s time for you to go to work. Your car checks your fingerprints and unlocks the doors. “My office. Autopilot,” you command. Your car drives itself down the road and moves smoothly into traffic on the highway. You sit back and unroll your e-newspaper. The latest news downloads and fills the viewer. Looking through the pages, you watch the news as video films rather than read it.
    小题1: What changes the color of your shirt?
    A．The mirror. B．The shirt itself. C．The counter. D．The medicine.
    小题2: How do the shoes know that you shouldn’t eat the breakfast cereal?
    A．By pouring the breakfast into a bowl.
    B．By listening to the doctor’s advice.
    C．By testing the food supplies in the kitchen.
    D．By checking the nutrition details of the food.
    小题3: The strawberries the children eat serve as ______.
    A．breakfast B．lunch C．vaccines D．nutrition
    小题4: How is the text organized?
    A．In order of time B．In order of frequency.

    Another food which is closely associated with Americans is apple pie．Apple pie is often served hot with a spoon of ice cream or a slice of cheese at the end of the biggest meal of the day—dinner, and it is a favorite dessert throughout the nation, if a person is typical of Americans, we can say, "He is as American as apple pie．"
    It is true that the apple and apple pie do not originate in America, but the expression "as American as apple pie" is not the product of a pure imagination．As early as 1625, the English colonists, having brought orchards （果园） on this new land and in most of the colonial times, the apple was a main material of both plain and fancy cooking．The first Massachusetts governor, William Endicott, was one of many keen apple planters who helped to lay the foundations for today' s apple-growing industry in America．
    A major attraction of the apple for the colonists was that it could be made into cider （苹果酒）. Like most Europeans, English colonists held a strong suspicion （怀疑） of drinking water, and since grapegrowing was hindered by plant peats, cider became an alternative to wine．Cheap and easy to produce, it was the American drink of first choice well into the nineteenth century． Whether it was dried, raw or cooked, the apple also found its way into numerous colonial dishes, including apple sauces, pudding, stuffings and many desserts．Therefore, the conclusion to be drawn here is obvious．The apple pie became known as American, not because it was invented on this land （since it was proved that Europeans had been eating apple pies for centuries）, but because, thanks to the huge orchards in the states of Washington and New York, America became the world's largest apple-producing nation．
    小题1:If a person is said to be as American as apple pie, it means that _______．
    A．he always prefers apple pie as a dessertB．his favourite pie is apple pie
    C．he behaves and thinks in the American way D．he is good at making American apple pie
    小题2:The apple can be used to make into all of the following except _______．
    A．wineB．saucesC．puddingD．cider
    小题3:The underlined word hindered in Paragraph 3 means．________．
    A．promotedB．preventedC．improvedD．enlarged
    小题4:It can be concluded from the passage that_______．
    A．the apple pie was first served in America
    B．the English colonists developed a taste for the apple only after they, arrived at the New World
    C．the expression "as American as apple pie" is a pure imagination
    D．the apple pie is traditionally associated with Americans due to their large apple production
