But why would doctors leave a comfortable life and a good pay to join MSF? According to Chris, the experience they have is a great help in their life.

School was over and I planned to go to a new s 68 for a fresh start. However, I was still sick. I joined a girls’ basketball club. What a mistake! I was t 69 tired to carry on.

七、阅读与回答问题（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）
阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容回答文后五个问题。

We need to be responsible for our environment. Being a frugal consumer(节俭的消费者) is one way to help. But, what exactly does that mean?
Use It Up
You can use things up instead of wasting them. Squeeze that last bit of toothpaste out of the tube. Use the last little piece of soap. Don’t throw away any bits of the biscuit at the bottom of the box.
Wear It Out
You do not always need to have new things. Suppose your trainers have broken laces(鞋带), but they still fit you. Repair them and wear them longer. You don’t have the latest iPhone until the old one doesn’t work any more. Then you can get a new one. Think twice before replacing something that still works.
Make It Do
When something you want is not on hand, look for something else that you already have to take its place. Suppose you are packing your lunch for tomorrow and want a butter sandwich. You are out of butter. Have a cheese sandwich instead so that you can use all of the cheese. Learn to fix broken toys instead of just throwing them away. With a little thought, you can make something do, instead of buying something new.
Do Without
Think about all those things that you would like to have. Do you really need them? How long will you really play with that new toy you saw on TV? Making the things that we want uses up your world’s resources(资源). And, g etting rid of the things we don’t want any more takes up even more resources and space.
76. According to the passage, what should we be responsible for? ________________________
77. How should we deal with the last little piece of soap? ________________________
78. When do we need to get a new iPhone? ________________________
79. What should we do when something we want is not on hand? ________________________
80. What else can we do to be a frugal consumer? (请自拟一句话作答) ___________________

书面表达One possible version：
Dear Daniel,
I'm very happy that you are coming to Nantong to spend your summer holiday. There are some similarities and differences between city life and country life.
Both in the city and in the country, people's life is getting better and better. They pay more and more attention to keeping fit. However, there are some differences.
In the city people go to supermarkets to buy what they need. They eat at home or in restaurants. They live in apartments and travel around by car or bus. After work, they go to cinemas, clubs or parks to relax themselves.
In the country, people grow vegetables and rice by themselves.They live in houses and ride motorbikes or bicycles to go around. In their spare time they would like to visit their neighbors or watch TV at home.
As for me, I prefer to live in the city because there are more places to enjoy myself. I often go to libraries, bookstores and science museums, where I can learn much about the world.
I am looking forward to meeting you! Best wishes!
