When the other animals were being loaded(装载) up, he always tried to be the last so that he would get the lightest load.The man took the new donkey into the yard. For a moment he stood there, looking at his new friends. Then, without thinking, he walked up to the lazy donkey and began eating comfortably at his side. Though it was late in the day, the man immediately took the new donkey out of the yard, straight back to the market. “You cannot do like this,”said the merchant (商人), “It is only ten minutes since you bought him.”“I don't need him any more ,” replied the man , “I know just what he is like from the friendhe chose for himself.

Of course not. According to the UN World Food Program, there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2013, especially in developing countries. Six million children die of hunger every year.Chinese people are well known for being hospitable(好客的) and generous. Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food on the table.Luckily, a number of people have realized the importance of saving food. Last November, Li Hong, a waitress in a restaurant in Nanjing, got fired because she took some leftover(剩余的) food home for her son. Many people stood by her and criticized(批评) the waste of food.What should we do in our daily lives to waste less food? Here are some tips:1. Do not order too much in a restaurant. Only order as much as you want to eat. If you cannot eat all the food you ordered, take the rest of it home.2. Don’t be too picky(挑剔的) about food. Some food may not taste great, but your body needs it.3. Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don’t buy too much, especially for vegetables and fruit.58.How many people were hungry in the world in 2013 according to the UN World FoodProgram?A. 200 million.B.

Now they have found something new---hot cities! In the southern US, they have found that cities become very hot in summer. For example, the city of Atlanta in Georgia has roof(屋顶) temperature of up to 50o C while it is 27℃ in the streets! At night, the outside of buildings stays so hot that the heat of the city causes storms over the city!China also has the same kind of problems. Every year more farmland is used for factories or offices. More housing is needed, too. As people become richer, they buy more cars. New roads are needed and new car parks are built in the city centers. This all makes cities hotter.It isn’t easy to change the situation. City planners say that we should plant more trees in the middle of cities. Every new street should have trees on both sides, they say. Trees make the temperature lower, so we should have more trees in our parks and squares. We should also paint our roofs white. If we do this, they do not become so hot. Every roof in a hot and sunny country should have solar(太阳的) roof panels. The electricity from these can be used to run the air conditioners (空调)in the buildings.People continue to cut down forests around the cities. This makes the problem worse. Cities are growing faster and faster. By the year 2025, four fifths(五分之四) of the population will be living in cities. If we go on like this, there will not be enough farmland to feed everyone in the world.62. The scientists have found .A. cities become very hot in summerB. Atlanta is the hottest city in AmericaC. there are not as many storms as beforeD. it is not as hot on the roof as in the street63. The way to make the city cooler is to .A. plant more treesB. try to use air c onditioners moreC. build more parks and squaresD. paint the roofs of all the white buildings64. What will probably happen in the future according to the fourth paragraph(段落)?A. Cities won’t grow very fastB. We will not have enough foodC. Most people will move to the countrysideD. People will plant more trees outside the cities65. What is the best title(题目)for the passage?A. More Farmland Is NeededB. Trees Make Cities CoolerC. Cities Are Getting HotterD.
