13、How can we keep the environment? One way is to remember the Four Rs: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Rebuy. Reduce
We need to use reusable materials and products. We also need to reduce the packaging that is used for new goods in shops. It is important that we improve our use of paper, cardboard, glass, metal, plastic, and other materials.
Reuse
Very often we throw away items that still could be used. For example, we sometimes throw away clothes when they no longer fit us, or we buy some new furniture and throw away something that could be repaired. Other people could make use of these items. We need to change our bad habits.
Recycling
By recycling, we can make something new from something old. This saves natural resources(资源). It also helps to offer jobs.
Rebuying
If we buy recycled goods, we help to save resources and avoid waste. The money we spend also supports the recycling process. Remember the Four Rs!
Of course, there are many other ways to improve our environment, we know. Let’s try them.

15、The sound of the rain hitting the windows wakes me up and it sounds just exactly as it did 15 years ago, which made me think of my girlhood.
It was my second day of school and it was raining heavily. I couldn't get away from the habit I had at home, so I fell
asleep right at my desk. I woke up to find myself not in the classroom but carried on Dad's back. We were halfway home. It was the last time I felt close to him.
After that, he never carried me or hugged (拥抱) me as other fathers did to their children. I was not troubled by
this thought. I was proud of it, for I felt independent (独立的) and "grown up". However, there were times when I felt sad for not having got comfort from him,
One day, I was writing Chinese characters as my homework. I hated doing this more than anything. Dad came and stood behind me for a moment, watching me scrawling (潦草地写) on the paper. Then he said, "This kind of writing needs patience. Your writing is not strong enough. Press harder. "
I followed his advice for the next two weeks, but as: I could see little improvement (改进), I followed my own method-the fast way. His advice didn't improve my writing but our relationship. As I grew older, I found out that he had finished his schooling in Grade 6, which was the highest grade in town then, so he was considered to be a scholar (学者). People used to ask him to write something to put on the walls, but he never felt very useful.
He often said to me, "As you can see, this family is going to count on you. We are useless to improve anything for your future. You have to get an education to change the life for yourself. " As a result of his expectations, I have made it through high school and college.
1．Where did the writer fall asleep?
A．At home. B．At school. C．On Dad's back. D．In Dad's arms.
2．Why did the writer feel sad sometimes?
A．Her father didn't care much for her.
B．She didn't get comfort from her father.
C．Her father seldom carried or hugged her.
D．She was troubled by her father's thought.
3．Which is the right order of the following things according to Paragraphs 4-5?
a. Dad stood behind me.
b. I wrote Chinese characters.
c. I followed my own method again.
d. I pressed harder when writing Chinese characters.
A．a-d-c-b B．a-c-d-b C．b-a-d-c D．b-c-a-d
4．How did her father feel after writing something for the people around?
A．Useless. B．Comfortable. C．Proud. D．Shameful.
5．What is the writer's purpose in writing this passage?
A．To tell her understanding of real life.

C．To ask people to follow their fathers' suggestions.
D．To show what matters to her personal development.

17、(C)
Pollution inside homes and other buildings kills more than 4 million people each year. Many people die as a result of breathing smoke or from cooking over wood-powered or coal-powered stoves.
One way to reduce the number of deaths is through cooking equipment powered by the sun. Crosby Menzies, a solar power expert in a South African company, described his latest solar cooker called the "Sol-4". "It is four square meters of mirrors, six to eight meters in length. It is quite a large cooker. "
The "Sol-4" works by reflecting (反射) light from the sun off large mirrors. The mirrors direct (把……对准) the light at a cooking pan. Then the light heats the pan with solar energy. Within two minutes, the pan is hot enough to cook sausages and onions. In just four minutes, water can be boiled. That is as fast as cooking with natural gas or electricity.
The cooker is also much "friendlier" than other models because people do not have to stand in the sun to use it. And people can prepare meals without having to collect firewood or spend money on coal. Such individuals （人）would be less likely to have breathing illnesses from harmful smoke.
At present, the cooker only works when the sun is shining. But engineers are working on a way to make it work without sunlight.
Each cooker costs about $2,000, which is a large amount of money for most Africans. To solve that problem. Crosby Menzies has created a non-governmental organization called Solar Cookers for Africa. It plans to raise money through donations to provide poor people with solar cooking equipment.
1．This passage is mainly about _______ .
A．solar cooker B．smoke pollution C．solar power experts D．breathing illnesses
2．The "Sol-4" is mainly used to _______ .
A．shorten the time of cooking
B．reduce the cost of making cookers
C．raise money through donations to help African people
D．reduce the number of deaths caused by harmful smoke
3．Which of the following about the "Sol-4" is TRUE?
A．It is six to eight square meters of mirrors.
B．It can work in any weather condition now.
C．It can also heat the pan by lighting firewood.
D．It is more environment-friendly than other cookers.
4．From the passage, we can infer that _______ .
A．the "Sol-4" will be designed in a smaller size
B．more Africans can use the solar cookers in the future
C．the "Sol-4" is the first product of the South African company
D．the African government will provide poor people with solar cookers

18、“How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly question that people in the U.S.A use to greet each other. But “How are you?” is also a very unusual question. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn’t really a question and “Fine” isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello” or “Hi”.
Sometimes, people also don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?” the other person might think, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong...”But it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “I’m not sure.” It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone.
People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person say “I’ve to go now.” Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse: “Someone’s at the door.” “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person.
When they are greeting each other, talking about an idea or finishing a talk, people don’t say exactly what they are
thinking. They are trying to be nice to each othe r, and it’s part of the game of language.
1．When a person in America asks “How are you?”, he or she wants to hear “_____”.
A．How are you? B．Hello
C．I don’t know D．Fine
2．When a person disagrees with someone, it is polite to say “_____”
A．I think you are wrong. B．I’m not sure.
C．I agree D．No, I disagree.
3．When a person says “I’ve to go now. Someone is at the door.” he or she may be _____.
A．giving an excuse B．ill
C．hurting someone’s feeling D．asking a question
4．The rule of the game of language is probably _____.
A．“Always say what you mean”
B．“Don’t disagree with others”
C．“Never ask questions ”
D．“Be polite”
