AGraham and his friends preferred to shoot up in their arms, necks and legs. A dealer once said Graham was the type who would never be able to turn back and that he expected him to die from the drug. Wendy feared the same, but didn’t know how to save her son. ‚ Once, after he’d disappeared for more than a month, I found him at a friend’s house with a bunch of other users,‛ she said, ‚I got down on my hands and knees, begging him to come home. He did, but the next mor ning he was gone. I don’t know what made him do it, but I drove 20 miles to the nearest train station. Graham was headed for Seattle, his pockets full of drugs. If I hadn’t gotten there in time, I would never have seen him alive again.‛The turning point came in 2007, after Graham was arrested yet again for possession. Wendy got a call from the Montana Drugs Project, which works with local lawenforcement（强制执行） to keep track of youth-related crimes so it can help families in trouble. Following a counselor’s advice, Wendy hired two men to come to her home in the middle of the night, tie Graham and take him to a treatment program in Thompson Falls, Montana. ‚I was high when they came and really angry with my mom,‛ he said, ‚But if she hadn’t done that, drugs would have killed me.‛ After six months of treatment, Graham, now 19, came back to Kalispell, where he’s grown close to Wendy once again. ‚I still have the desires every day and attend support meetings every night,‛ he said, ‚But life is worth living again. My mom thinks that’sa miracle. I guess she is right.‛21.

All these structures useelectricity and need to be lighted. Humans demand theselights. They want their homes more comfortable and theywant their streets safe. The problem is that researchersare finding that all the light is having a negativeeffect on humans and wildlife as well.Less than 10 years ago I drove to a thinly populated section of my town, lay down in the middle of the road and watched an attractive meteor shower (流星雨). The area was short of homes, street lights and traffic. If I did that today, I wouldn't be able to see the meteor shower as well. Due to the increase in street lights, I would surely be run over by a car.Nowadays scientists are finding light pollution can be almost as bad as carbon dioxide pollution. If you've ever taken a flight at night, the view is beautiful, but you must remember that all the light you see wastes electricity. The crew of the space shuttles see an even bigger picture of how extensive the wasted electricity is worldwide.One of the saddest parts of light pollution is that most of it is unnecessary and most of the outdoor light that we use is wasted. One only needs to look at a row of street lights to see how much of the light shines upwards and lights the sky; a total waste of electricity.Additionally, somewhere electricity needs to be produced, and the production of electricity creates pollution by releasing greenhouse gases. This affectsthe air we breathe and our quality of life.Scientists are also studying the effects of light pollution on wildlife. Thousands of birds die each year when they crash into highly lighted buildings, as they become puzzled by the light. It has been long known that tiny baby sea turtles become lost and follow lights on the shore instead of heading towards the sea.Fortunately, light pollution is one of the easiest sources of pollution that can be corrected without a negative effect. Following some guidelines and a little searching on Google can give you many ideas on how to reduce your contribution to light pollution.24. It is implied in Paragraph 3 that the best way to deal with light pollution is ________.A. reducing the output of the lightsB. avoiding the use of unnecessary lightingC. educating people about light pollutionD. inventing environmentally- friendly lights25. Which of the following is the effect of light pollution?A. Many animals species have died out.B. More traffic accidents happen every day.C. The air we breathe may be polluted.D. It is much easier for us to watch meteor showers.26. What can be inferred from the text?A. We are almost at a loss how to deal with light pollution.B. Global warming results in light pollution in some way.C. Astronauts can’t see clearly in space nowadays.D. Some animals use natural light to direct their movements.27. What will probably be provided following the last paragraph?A. Helpful tips for surfing the Internet.B. approaches to decreasing light pollution.C. Benefits of searching on Google.D. More bad effects of light pollution.CDirector of Overseas FinanceFinancial ServicesEdinburghPermanentUpdated October 30, 2017-2018Reporting into the Administration and Finance Partner,this is a new role with responsibility for oversight and leadership in international financial matters, overseastax issues and overseas operational management.Key responsibilities include:•Overseeing(监督) development and implementation(实施) of overseas tax strategy and managing relationshipswith relevant authorities and advisors.•Managing international financial planning, forecasting and reporting requirements.•Analysis and communication of impacts and responsesto tax and other regulatory(管理的) documents.•Establishment and maintenance of appropriate systems,controls and records.•Managing and leading senior accountants and managers.Who we’re looking forThe successful candidate will be a qualified accountant with a strong academic record and will have:英语试卷第7页(共16页) •Experience of managing the finances of an international commercial organization.•A track record of delivering improved efficiencyand effectiveness in financial operations.•Experience of leading and developing teams with proven change management experience.About our customersBaillie Gifford is one of the UK’s leading investment management firms and is a major player in the asset（资产）management business.

Some ran anyway. Some ran away. But no one cancelled on the advice of the organizers, the Chinese Athletic Association and the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Sports, because those organizations did not call it off. That has made participants call the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), which has approved the 26-mile, or 42-kilometer race, to set air quality standards in the future to avoid damaging the runners’ health. The association could not be reached by telephone on Sunday.‚Does the IAAF have guidelines?‛ asked Chas Pope, a British engineer who took part in the marathon on Sunday. ‚If they don’t, they should consider it,‛ said Mr. Pope, who has lived in Beijing for 11 years and runs several long-distance races each year. ‚It’s meant to be fun and good for y our health,‛ Mr. Pope said of the marathon. ‚But in such air, it’s just ridiculousto be running,‛ he said. He abandoned the course. ‚Most of my overseas friends pulled out,‛ he said. ‚And quite a few of my Chinese friends too, but a lot didn’t. I think th ey don’t know as much about the health impact.‛Images on Twitter and Chinese social media showed Chinese runners wearing a variety of face protections, from light cloth masks to World War I-style gas masks. Still many completed the race without masks. ‚Today’s race should definitely have been called off or rescheduled,‛ said Zhang Kai, Beijing-based campaigner with Greenpeace East Asia. ‚What happened today to this sports even is just another reminder to the government that much remains to be done to China’s energy and industrial structure to solve pollution,‛ said Mr. Zhang. ‚If the battle against pollution is a marathon, it is now time to catch up on speed.‛In the end, the race was won by two Ethiopians: Girmay Birhanu Gebru won the men’s race in 2 hours, 10 minutes and 42 seconds while Fatuma Sado Dergo won the women’s in 2 hours, 30 minutes and 3 seconds, breaking Chinese women’s advantage of the race for the last 22 years.The favored Chinese woman runner, Gong Lihua, told China News Net that the smog didn’t affect her too muchbut it interfered with many people’s ability to sweat,affecting their performance.32. The underlined sentences ‚Some ran anyway. Some ranaway.‛ mean _____________.A. Some runners who dropped out returned to run.B. Some runners gave up after running a short distance.C. Not all runners continued to run.D. Most runners quit the race.33. Why did participants call the IAAF?英语试卷第9页(共16页)A. To tell it the Beijing International Marathon wasalso named Smogathon.B.
