When I was a foreign teacher in China，every day I taught English to my students and they taught me about China．One day the topic mined to saying “I love you”．I was shocked to learn that not one of my students had said this to their mothers，nor had their mothers said it to them．“Does your mom love you?” “Of course，”they answered．
“How do you know?” was my logical question．They responded that their moms cooked and Always told them what they were doing wrong to show their earning．I was strummed. So mom's cooking and criticizing read our as “I love you”．”Then how do you say ‘I love you to her?” They agreed that getting good grades, followed by good jobs would be how they showed their love.
I come from a culture where most people are expressive enough，so I repeated these queries in clauses over time．Gradually，I began to get different responses．Some of them had exchanged those sentiments with their moms．
One of my favorite stories of change came from a girl．When she came home from university，her mother met her at the door and hugged（拥抱）her．This had never happened before，but her mom said，“Now that you have gone I have more time to myself．I noticed that in some places mothers and children hug each other and I decided it was a good idea and that I would begin hugging you．”
In my family we all say “I love you” a lot．While it is true that we often say the words without having great depth of feelings at that moment，it is almost like a blessing we give each other. Those three little words carry a world of meaning，even when said as a greeting, but most especially if they are the lax words we say to or hear from those we love．
【小题1】The foreign teacher _________．

A．comes from America	B．is a young woman
C．is expressive enough	D．knows much about China

【小题2】Chinese people prefer to show love by __________．

A．saying “I love you”	B．cooking
C．getting good grades	D．doing something helpful

【小题3】In paragraph 4, what's the real meaning of the mom's hugging?

A．She is meeting her daughter at the dour．

B．She loves her daughter and misses her．

C．She is glad that she has more time to herself．

D．She finds it interesting to hug her daughter．

【小题4】What's the main idea of the passage?

A．Say “I love you” more to your family．

B．Say “I love you” a lot to Chinese people．

C．Say “I love you” as a greeting to others．

D．Say “I love you” without great depth of feelings．

Have you ever stayed in a hotel? Most Chinese hotels often provide guests(客人) with things like disposable (一次性的) toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and slippers. Many guests like the idea because they don't have to bring their own. But, if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring your own things. Starting from June, some hotels in Beijing will no longer provide guests with these disposables. They want to ask people to use less disposable things.
Many disposable things are made of plastic. People throw them away after only using them once. It is a waste of natural resources (资源) and is very bad for the environment. Do you know, one Chinese person makes as much as 400kg of waste a year! Most of that waste comes from disposable things. In Beijing, people throw away about 19,000 tons of plastic bags and 1,320 tons of plastic lunch bowls every year! Plastic can take between 100 and 400 years to break down. So the less plastic we throw out, the better. So, wherever you travel, bring your own things and use them again and again.
Back at home and school, you can also do something to make our world a better place. Try to do these things in your daily life:  Use cloth shopping bags, not plastic ones. After using a plastic bag, wash it out and let it dry. Then you can use it over and over again. Do not use paper cups. At your school dining-room, use your own bowl and chopsticks instead of disposable ones.
To protect our environment and our home, it is very necessary and important for us to save natural resources.
(   ) 11. Why do many hotels provide guests with some disposable things?
A. Let their guests be convenient during their traveling.
B. Hope their guests use less disposable things.
C. Wish their guests to save money.
D. Want their guests to use more disposable things.
(   ) 12. Some Beijing hotels will no longer provide guests with _________.
A. cheap food and drink    B. disposable things 
C. good service           D. free TV programs
(   ) 13. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Many disposable things are made of plastic.
B. Throwing disposable things away is a waste of natural resources.
C. Plastic is very bad for the environment.
D. Plastic breaks down easily.
(   ) 14. What can we do to make our world a better place at home and school?
A. Use shopping bags made of plastic.       
B. Do not throw away paper cups.
C. Use disposable plates, bowls and chopsticks.
D. Don’t forget to reuse daily necessities（日用品）.
(   ) 15. We can tell from the story that ________.
A. people don't like disposable things at all
B. we can't use paper or plastic bowls at school
C. we should use less plastic things and protect our environment
D. hotels won't provide disposable things because they want to save money

Nowadays, more and more schools in China make rules making students wear school uniforms to school. Parents and teachers think it will make a better learning environment at school, but some students don’t like their school uniforms. So, what are school uniforms like in other parts of the world?
In Japan, boys in middle school wear uniforms called “gakuran” which have dark jackets with stand-up collars and pants. Girls, on the other hand, wear uniforms called “sailor fuku”, which look like European naval(海军) uniforms.
Most schools in England require students to wear school uniforms. Boys need to wear long grey or black pants, white shirts and school ties. Girls have the same clothes as boys, but they can wear skirts or summer school dresses during the summer term.
In the UK, uniforms were the custom throughout most of the 20^th Century, but now more and more public schools stop requiring students to wear uniforms. They think uniforms make students lose their personalities(个性).
For children in many African countries, school uniforms can be a kind of pride, or a huge financial burden(经济负担). Many children have only one uniform, and that may be all the clothes they have.
In a word, love it or hate it, school uniform is a part of growing up for children around the world so you’d better enjoy your school uniform and your school life.
根据短文内容，判断下列句子正（T）误（F）。
【小题1】The author introduces school uniforms of different countries to prove it is a part of growing up for children.
【小题2】 In Japan, teenagers all wear uniforms which liik like European naval uniforms.
【小题3】 Neither Chinese students nor students in other countries like their school uniforms.
【小题4】 In England all the school stop requiring students to wear uniforms because they think uniforms make students lose their personalities.
【小题5】In Africa, many children are too poor to afford more than one uniform.

After spending years searching for a planet with life, scientists may have found one. In September 2010, a team of US scientists discovered an Earth-sized planet called Gliese 581g. It has a surface temperature neither too hot nor too cold for liquid（液态）water. Scientists think there is a chance that the planet could have life.
The planet Gliese 581g goes around a star called Gliese 581, which is about 20 light-years from Earth. That is about 194 trillion（万亿）kilometres －500 million times farther away from us than the moon.
A spacecraft traveling at a one-tenth of the speed of light would reach Gliese 581g within about 220 years. A human can’t live that long, but robotic explorers could make the job easier. However, our fastest spacecraft don’t come anywhere near that one-tenth light-speed mark.
At present, scientists don’t know what the surface might be like on Gliese 581g. What they know is that the planet is at the sight distance from its star to have liquid water. It’s also at the right distance to have an atmosphere that could protect the water if it is on the surface.
Although spacecraft won’t be getting there anytime soon, one way to look for life on Gliese 581g is to turn our radio telescopes（望远镜）towards the planet and search for radiation（放射）. By studying the radiation, scientists would find out about the chemicals（化学物质）around the planet and discover it Gliese 581g has an atmosphere. If it has one, studying the atmosphere would give us a good idea if the planet has life or not. But it’ll probably be many years before we can do this properly.
People have been arguing about whether there is alien life on Gliese 581g. Any discussion about alien life is just guessing at this point, according to its discoverers.
【小题1】 What did scientists find in September 2010?

A．A planet with water.	B．A planet similar to the earth.
C．A planet without life.	D．A planet near the earth.

【小题2】According to the article, Gliese 581g ________.

A．is at the right distance from its star	B．moves around the earth
C．is as far away from us as the moon	D．can be reached in about 220 years

【小题3】 Paragraph 5 is mainly about ______.

A．the possibility of living on Gliese 581g

B．the kinds of chemicals around Gliese 581g

C．the way of looking for life on Gliese 581g

D．the aim of studying the radiation on Gliese 581g

【小题4】Which of the following is the best title for the passage above?

A．Gliese 581g, a Likely Living Planet	B．Gliese 581, a Likely Living Planet
C．Gliese 581g and Its Star	D．Gliese 581g and Radiation

For the British, the home is private place in which he or she goes to hide away from the troubles of life. It is very seldom that one would be invited to a British person’s home. It is rude to knock on a person’s door if you are not invited. If you are invited, don’t ask to see more than the downstairs that your British host invites you into. Never ask how much the house or any of the items in if cost.
To the American, most of them want their home to be a place where they can entertain (款待) and share their lives with their friends. They may be delighted to give you a full tour of their houses. They may also be pleased when you show your interest and pleasure in their houses.
Both British and American people will engage in quite a bit of chat and a drink or two before the meal is served. After the first mouthful, you should say how delicious the food is and ask something about it. Remember, never eat with your mouth open and make very little noise while eating. It would be nice of you to help your host in any way. Maybe offer to pour some drinks or clear up after the meal.

When you are learning English, you find it not clever to put an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence "How do you do?" as an example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation (翻译)? It must be a wrong sentence in your own language.
Languages do not just have different sounds, they are different in many ways. It's important to master(掌握) the rules(规则) for word order (顺序) in the study of English, too. If the speaker puts words in a wrong order, the listener can't understand the speaker's sentence easily.Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence changes. But sometimes the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn't change.
Let's see the difference between the two sentences:"She only likes apples. " "Only she likes apples. "
When you are learning English, you must use it as the English speaker does.
【小题1】From the passage we know that _______when we are learning English.

A．we shouldn't put every word into our own language

阅读下面的短文．并根据短文后的要求答题。
Since 1850．the temperature of Earth’s surface has increased about 0.6°C．Scientists predict it may warm much more by the end of this century．Who’s turning up the heat? Well, it seems that we are! Some of this global warming may be natural．However，nearly all scientists now agree that most of it is due to peoples actions．Over the past 150 years, we've added huge amounts of certain gases, especially carbon dioxide（CO2）to the air．These gases can keep heat near Earth's surface，so more carbon dioxide means more heat is kept near Earth's surface．Global warming may change the weather in ways that lead to more severe storms，floods and droughts．
We add carbon dioxide to the air when we burn things, especially fossil fuels．Fossil fuels are energy sources formed from the remains of plants and animals that lived millions of years ago．Coal，oil，and natural gas are all fossil fuels．People in the United States and other countries started bunting large amounts of fossil fuels more than a century ago．The amount d fossil fuels being burned each year has been increasing worldwide．The more we burn，_____________________．
What can we do to help? Nowadays to live a low-carbon life is quite popular in the world． Low-carbon means to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide．Saving energy and reusing are the key words. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make our lives low-carbon．
1．What problem can global warming cause?（根据短文内容回答问题）
2．What are fossil fuels?（同上）
3．请将第一段中的划线句子翻译成汉语。

C. might have to start turning wild（野生的）animals into pets. This might be the only way to save them from dying out.
D. What about a robot（机器人）for a pet? This may sound silly, but it could become true. Robot dogs have been made to get things, to bark like real dogs. These “pets” might become more and more popular in the future. After all, robots don’t lose hair or eat things the way real pets do.
E. Lots of people miss their pets while they are on holiday. One hotel in Minnesota has solved this problem. They lend cats to their guests. Many experts（专家）believe this idea will become more and more popular. It is very possible that in the future you will be able to have a pet while in a hotel.
