AFire! Fire!” What terrible words to hear when one wakes up in a strange house in the middle of the night! It was a large, old, wooden house and my room was on the top floor. I jumped out of bed, opened the door and stepped outside the house. There was full of thick smoke.I began to run, but as I was still only half-awake, instead of going towards the stairs I went in the opposite direction. The smoke grew thicker and I could see fire all around. The floor became hot under my bare feet. I found an open door and ran into a room to get to the window. But before I could reach it, one of my feet caught in something soft and I fell down. The thing I had fallen over felt like a bundle(包) of clothes, and I picked it up to protect my face from thesmoke and heat. Just then the floor gave way under me and I crashed to the floor below with pieces of burning wood all around me.I saw a doorway in fire, then I put the bundle over my face and ran. My feet burned me terrible, but I got through. As I reached the cold air outside, my bundle of clothes gave a thin cry, I nearly dropped it in my surprise. Then I was in a crowd gathered in the street. A woman in a night-dr ess and a borrowed man’s coat screamed as she saw me and came running madly.She was the Mayor’s wife, and I had saved her baby.21. When the fire arose in the middle of the night, the author was _______.A. at homeB. sleepingC. sitting in bedD. at school22. The author saved the baby _____.A. because he was very brave.B. because he liked the baby very much.C. but he just happened to save it.D. because it was the Mayor’s baby.23. He put the bundle over his face and ran in order to ______.A. save the babyB. call for helpC. protect his faceD. run quicklyBIt was once thought that air pollution affected only the area immediately around large cities with factories and heavy automobile traffic. Today, we know that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution，the problem is worldwide. On several occasions over the past decade, a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the entire eastern half of the United States and led to health warnings even in rural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing(制造业) and automobile traffic. In fact, the very climate of the entire earth may be affected by air pollution.Some scientists feel that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning of fossil fuels (coal and oil) is creating a “greenhouse effect”--- holding in heat reflected from the earth and raising the world’s average temperature. If this view is correct and the world’s temperature is raised only a few d egrees, much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities such as New York，Boston，Miami，and New Orleans will be under water.Another view, less widely held, is that increasing particulate matter in the atmosphere isblocking sunlight and lowering the earth’s temperature—a result that would be equally disastrous.A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to new ice age and would make agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas.At present we do not know for sure that either of these conditions will happen, though one recent government report prepared by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very likely. Perhaps, if we are very lucky, the two tendencies will offset each other and the world’s temperature will stay about the same as it is now.24. According to the passage，people today think that air pollution________.A. may not have an effect on the entire earthB. exists not only in those large citiesC. causes huge damage in the countrysideD. is not so serious as it used to be25. The “greenhouse effect” leads to________.A. the concentration of carbon dioxideB. the heat reflected from the earthC. the melting of the polar ice capD. the blocking of sunlight26. What does the author think of the possibility of a new ice age?A. He declines it as being reasonable.B. He is uncertain of its occurrence.C. He thinks that would happen soon.D. He holds the opposite view.27. The passage is mainly about__________.A. the possible influences of air pollutionB .the varied views of climate scientistsC. the potential effects of global warmingD. the major causes of climate changeCIf you still need to relax and want to head overseas, don’t miss out some great deals on accommodation or air fares at some of the world’s top off-peak（淡季）travel hot spots.Here are four off-peak travel destinations to visit in 2013:PortugalWith rich culture and history, Portugal continues to be one of the most affordable European destinations.

Let the sunshine in falling leaves, flowers, and cold winds. For many people late autumn can be a season of depression.Those who suffer from “the autumn blue” are often extremely tired, lack energy, need more sleep, feel increased appetite and gain weight. “The exact cause of this condition, often called seasonal depression or seasonal affective disorder（SAD）, is not known yet,” says Chen Jue, associate professor at Shanghai Mental Health Center. “But recent studies show that weather change is influential and strongly suggest that this condition is caused by changes in the availability（得到）of sunlight.”One theory is that with decreased exposure(曝露）to sunlight, the biological clock that regulates mood, sleep, and hormones is delayed, running more slowly in winter. Exposure to light may reset the biological clock. Another theory is that brain chemicals that transmit（传送）information between nerves, called neurotransmitters （for example, serotonin）, may be altered in individuals with SAD. It is believed that exposure to light can correct these imbalances. “It is a sad season, but you can try to make it happy. Remember, spring always lives in your heart ,” Chensays. “Going outdoors to get some sunlight may reduce the tension that brings you the low spirits. Relax at work. Stretch, breathe deeply. Take a tea break. Think of your next vacation. Color treatment also works in handling low mood. Music also plays a role in treating autumn blues.”32.
