James shook his money box again.
Nothing! He carefully counted the coins that lay on the bed. All that he had was $24.52 (about 153 yuan). The bicycle he wanted was at least $90! How on earth (究竟) was he going to get the rest of the money?
He knew that his friends all had bicycles. It was hard to hang out with people when you were the only one without a bicycle. He thought about what he could do. There was no point asking his parents, for he knew they had no extra money.
There was only one way to get money, and that was to earn (挣) it. He would have to find a job. He decided to ask Mr Clay for advice.
“Well, you can start right here,” said Mr Clay. “You see, my windows need cleaning and my car needs washing.”
That was the beginning of James’ part-time job.
For the next three months he worked every day after finishing his homework. He took dogs for walks, cleaned out cupboards and repaired books.
The day finally came when James counted his money and found $ 94.32. He wasted no time and went down to the shop to pick up the bicycle he wanted. He rode home proudly, looking forward to showing his new bicycle to his friends. It had been hard working for the money, but James knew that he valued (珍惜) his bicycle far more because he had bought it with his own money. He had achieved what he thought was impossible, and that was worth even more than the bicycle.
41．Why didn’t James ask his parents for help?
A．Because they didn’t love him.
B．Because they didn’t have extra money.
C．Because they lived far away from him.
D．Because they didn’t need a bike.
42．In order to buy a bicycle, James .
A．found a job
B．borrowed money from his classmates
C．sold his old books
D．asked his grandfather for some money
43．James did the following jobs EXCEPT
A．walking dogs B．cleaning out cupboards
C．cooking meals D．repairing books
44．How much money did James earn?
A．$24.52B．$90C．$94.32D．$69.80 45．What does the writer want to tell us?
A．We should buy everything we want.
B．We should get what we want through hard work.
C．Parents shouldn’t give children any money.
D．We shouldn’t show off new things to poor children.
The Earth has warmed by about half a degree(0.50℃)over the last 100 years. It could be getting warmer on its own, but many scientists think that people are making the Earth warmer by making a greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is important. Without it, the Earth would not be warm enough for us to live on. But just a little warmer than it is now could cause problems for humans, plants and animals.
Many of the things we do every day can change the Earth’s temperature by sending greenhouse gases into the air. We send greenhouse gases into the air when we watch TV, turn on lights, dry hair, play video games, wash or dry our clothes or drive cars. The rubbish from factories and homes also produces greenhouse gases.
Even a small change in temperature can affect our weather. This can cause changes in the sea levels, the air, flooding, and our fresh water.
The change in the temperature can also cause changes in the living places for animals and plants, endangering many animals.
Global warming is a big problem, and every little bit we do can help. We can save electricity. We can save energy in other ways such as by taking buses or walking rather than driving cars. We can recycle to reduce the rubbish and save natural resources such as trees, oil and metals. We can buy products that don’t do bad to the environment and we can turn to solar energy. Remember the little bit that you do will bring a better world.
根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。

46．Which of the following does not send greenhouse gases into the air?
A．Watching TV.B．Turning on a light.
C．Driving a car.D．Walking to school.
47．In this passage, the scientists are mainly trying to make the readers realize___________ . A．the greenhouse effect is important
B．humans are making the earth warmer
C．the earth is getting warmer in 100 years
D．the earth could be getting warmer by itself
48．Without the greenhouse effect，we would _____________ .
A．be safer
B．not be able to live
C．have a cleaner earth
D．have a better world
49．The writer gives us advice on how to save energy in __________ .

56．As we know, water is very important to man, we can’t live without water. The amount of water whichis suitable to drink is less and less. But some people don’t care about it. They waste a lot of water in their daily life. Even worse, they pour dirty water into rivers. They throw rubbish into rivers, too. Many rivers and lakes are seriously polluted. Something must be done to stop the pollution. And I think it’s a great shame to waste while millions are in great need of water. I think whatwe can do is that we have to save every drop of water as possible as we can. For example, we must turn off the tap immediately after we use it. We can use a basin to wash our hands and faces. It’s also a good idea to encourage my friends and family members to join me! Only in this way can we live happily. If we don’t save water, the last drop of water will be a tear-drop of us. I believe if everyone makes a little effort, we can make a big difference.
