                                                            The War Against Sand
         Imagine living on the edge of a vast desert, which is moving quietly closer to your village every day
    and covering your fields. The desert is on the move. This is called desertification.
         Desertification occurs in regions close to an already existing desert.     1     The first is over-use of
    water in the area. There is not enough water in any case, and if it is not carefully used, disaster can follow. As time goes on, water shortages make farming more and more difficult. In some places, locals can
    remember local lakes and marshes which were once the homes for all kinds of fish and birds.     2    
    Farmers leave the land, and fields are replaced by deserts.
         The second cause is misuse or over-use of the land.     3     Ploughing(耕) large fields and removing
    bushes and trees means that the wind will blow away the soil. Once the soil is lost, it is hard to replace,
    and if there is rain, it has nowhere to go, and brings no benefit.
             4     Every spring, the skies over some of eastern cities, thousands of kilometers away from the
    deserts, can be darkened by sandstorms. Dust from deserts can have a great effect on weather systems. While desertification is perhaps being partly caused by global warming, these sandstorms can make
    global warming worse by adding to what is known as the greenhouse effect.
         What can be done to slow down or stop the process of desertification? A great deal of work is
    already under way. Obviously first steps are to find new water sources.     5     Some types of grass also
    hold the soil together, and stop the wind taking it. Without these efforts, it will be harder and harder to
    stop the world's deserts in their tracks, and more and more farmers will give up and head for cities. The
    lesson to be learnt lies beneath the sand.
    A. It generally arises from two related causes.
    B. It is not only the farmers and villagers who suffer.
    C. They have been completely buried by the sand now.
    D. Scientists are doing the research on the cause of desertification.
    E. They destroy the land, as the soil dries out and is then blown away.
    F. Tree planting can help, by providing barriers between desert and rich field.
    G. This means that the wrong crops are planted, and need more water than is available.

    A. Gift giving proven to be valuable
    B. Memories from gift giving
    C. Moments and events for gift giving
    D. Various functions of gift giving
    E. Gift giving as a wasteful practice
    F. Gift giving as a two-way social activity
                                                                             Gift Giving
    1.______
         There are many occasions (场合) for giving gifts in modern industrialized societies: birthdays, naming
    ceremonies, weddings, anniversaries, New Year. It is common to give gifts on many of these celebrations
    in western cultures. In addition, special events, such as one's first day of school or graduation from university,
    often require gift giving.
    2.______
         What is happening when we give gifts? Most important, we are exchanging gifts. If someone gives me
    a gift for my birthday, I know that I am usually expected to give one on his or her next birthday. A gift builds
    up or confirms a social obligation (义务).
    3.______
         Gifts tighten personal relationships and provide a means of communication between loved ones. People say
    that a gift lets the recipient (接受者) know we are thinking of them, and that we want to make the person "feel
    special." We want people to feel wanted, to feel part of our social or family group. We give presents to say
    "I'm sorry." Sometimes it is difficult for us to find a present that someone will like. Sometimes we give things
    that we like or would feel comfortable with. In all these cases, the gifts are sending out messages-often very
    expressive ones.
    4.______ 
         People tend to talk about presents in a fairly loving way. A woman whose mother had died years ago
    described the many gifts around her house. These were gifts that her mother had given her over the years:"I
    appreciate these, and they mean something to me," the woman said, "because I remember the occasions they
    were given on, and that they were from my mother, and the relationship we've had." The gifts remain and keep
    the relationship alive in mind. This woman felt the same way about the gifts she gave to others. She hoped that
    the recipients would look at her gifts in years to come and remember her.
    5.______
         Emotions (情感) like these suggest that a positive spirit still lies behind gift giving. They prove that the
    anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss was wrong to say that modern western gift giving is highly wasteful.
    Studies in Canada and elsewhere have also shown that this is not the case. Each gift is unique even if so many
    are given. The emotional benefit for those who exchange gifts is the very reason for the tradition to continue.

         When children celebrate a wedding anniversary for the parents, it's not just a celebration for the
    parents but for the whole family. There are many types of wedding anniversary gifts.      1    Choosing a
    gift for parents that involves the whole family makes the event more special for them.
    Budget(预算)
         Children shouldn't spend too much money on the gift. Parents usually know the financial conditions of
    their children.     2       
         Considerations
         An anniversary gift for parents should have two characteristics: customized (订制的), and something
    they can use together. It is not a good idea to choose a gift that only looks good. The gift is celebrating
    their time spent together, so it has to be something they both will enjoy.
         Family celebration
         One of the biggest achievements of parents is raising children. So some children decide to buy an
    anniversary gift that involves the entire family such as a special family vacation.      3     
         A party as a gift
             4      If it is a milestone anniversary such as a 25th or 50th wedding anniversary, some children
    choose to hold a party. The guest list includes all family members who have been close to them over the
    years.
         Family-themed gifts
         One choice is a family photo taken by a professional or even a painting created by a professional
    artist using a family photo as the image to be painted.      5   If the parents don't have a DVD player,
    the player can be included as part of the gift.
    A. Sometimes gifts don't have to be objects bought with money.
    B. Brothers and sisters can share the cost of the party.
    C. And these gifts reflect a lot of thought and effort.
    D. So the gift should be one selected specially for parents.
    E. Overspending can make parents uncomfortable and worried.
    F. This way, the family can be together to celebrate the anniversary.
    G. Another nice gift is making a DVD with old videotapes of family events.

    根据短文内容，从下框的A-F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余项。
    A.The secret of the writer's success
    B. A write with enduring popularity
    C. Well-received creation to encourage Brits
    D. The insight into human nature
    E. Writing styles in different stages
    F. The story appreciate for school students
    1. （     ）
        Charles Dickens is often thought of as one of England's great writers. Yet for many his language is 
    old-fashioned and his story plots often improbable. Why, Dickens, out of so many other great English 
    writers, has made the list? How then to explain Dickens's enduring popularity?
    2. （     ）
         One reason undoubtly is the British government's insistence that every child studies a Dickens novel at
    school. Alongside Willian Shakespeare, Charles Dickens is a compulsory (必读的) writer on every English 
    literature school reading list. His stories, though often over-long by today's standard,are superbly written
     moral tales. They are filled with colorful characters.
    3. （     ）
          But what makes his books stand out from other English writers is his insight into human nature. Dickens,
     like Shakespeare, tells us truths about human behavior that are as true to citizens of the 21st century as they
    were to his readers in the 19th century. Readers have returned to Dickens's books again and again over the
    years to see what he has to say about readers'own time.
    4. （     ）
         The BBC adapted one of his less well-known novels, Little Dorrit, into a popular television drama that 
     introduced many Brits to the novel for the first time. A dark story about greed and money, it was the perfect 
    story to illustrate the bad times. No surprise then that it was Dickens Britons turned to, during the economic 
    crisis last year, to make sense of world rapidly falling apart.
    5. （     ）
         Readers of the 19th and early 20th century usually prized Dickens's earlier novels for their humor and 
    pathos (悲痛). While recognizing the virtues of these books, critics today tend to rank more highly the later
    works because of their formal coherence and acute perception (洞察力) of the human condition. For as long
    as Dickens's novels have something to say to modern audiences, it seems likely that he will remain one of 
    Britain's best loved writers.

                      Kids' health: Four steps for fighting stress
         Everybody gets stressed from time to time.  1  Some ways of dealing with stress
    - like screaming or hitting someone - don't solve(解决)much. But other ways, like talking
    to someone you trust, can lead you to solving your problem or at least feeling better.
         Try taking these four steps the next time you are stressed:
         (1)Get support. When you need help, reach out to the people who care about you. Talk
    to a trusted adult, such as a parent or other relatives.    2  They might have
    had similar problems, such as dealing with a test, or the death of a beloved pet.
         (2)Don't take it out on yourself. Sometimes when kids are stressed and upset they take
    it out on themselves. Oh, dear, that's not a good idea. Remember that there are
    always people to help you. Don't take it out on yourself. 3  
         (3)Try to solve the problem. After you're calm and you have support from adults and
    friends, it's time to get down to business.  4  Even if you can't solve it all,
    you can solve a piece of it.
         (4)Be positive. Most stress is temporary (暂时的). Remember stress does go away,
    especially when you figure out the problem and start working on solving it.
    These steps aren't magic, but they do work. And if you can stay positive as you make
    your way through a tough time, you'll help yourself feel better even faster.   5  
    A. Ask for a helping hand to get you through the tough situation.
    B. Notice your friends' feelings and find a way to help them.
    C. Different people feel stress in different ways.
    D. Ah, it feels so good when the stress is gone.
    E. You need to figure out what the problem is.
    F. And don't forget about your friends.
    G. Then, find a way to calm down.
