Green is not always referring to the color. In some cases, it is the term used for being environmentally friendly. If you've been looking to replace your furniture, consider going green because environmentally friendly furniture offers many benefits. Here are a few tips to get you started on your hunt for the perfect eco-friendly furniture.
First, environmentally friendly furniture isn't harmful to your health. Also its manufacturing process doesn't cause damage to the environment in any way. Besides, by purchasing eco-friendly products, you prevent deforestation and global warming to some extent in your own way. You do your part in protecting the environment. Environmentally friendly furniture is cost-effective as well.
The materials that are used in furniture are what make them green. Materials can be good for the environment either because they are materials that are considered renewable resources or they are all natural. A lack of chemicals and toxins (毒素) in green furniture also means it is a better choice for the environment. It may be hard to imagine that a sofa or a table could actually be a green product but they really can be depending on what they're made of.
There are a lot of renewable sources that manufacturers could use when building the furniture, so you should be keeping an eye out for them. Bamboo can be an excellent replacement for wood and can also replace plastics and metals in some furnishing. Cotton is a sofa fabric that is safe for the environment and it can be replenished (补充) often. Hemp is also a renewable source that can be used for fabric and twine.
Recycled materials also can be made into green furniture. Metals can be recovered and remade into new things such as frames and foundations for sofas. Recycled plastic can also be made into furniture such as tables and chairs. Touching up old furniture instead of buying new items is very cheap way to be green. Yard sales and second-hand stores sell furniture too and buying the used means new things won't be made, so no more damage has to happen to the earth.
Therefore, when you want to hunt for the perfect environmentally friendly furniture, you should try to know the type of materials which are used in building the furniture.
reused/recycled/used；like；second-hand/used/old；better/necessary/important/vital/essential

2．阅读下面材料，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。

The autumn wind woke me up from my dream. I took a deep breath and looked around. Suddenly I saw two people approaching me. As there was no one else in the park, they caught my attention immediately.
The two people were getting closer and I heard them laughing. At first, this laugh made me annoyed as if they had broken my unity with this park and disturbed my thoughts. But all of a sudden, I noticed the age of them — they were old. I could not clearly identify their age, but the woman looked as old as my grandmother. She had grey hair, blue eyes, and a smile on her face. And all the time she was looking at HIM...
"Jim, I think we should change the park. It's the same every Saturday. You know..." "Sus! Hug me."— that was all he said. He looked at her, smiled and gave her a hug.
At this very moment, I saw an old but strong man who knew his wife, and no matter how often she could be complaining, he loved her! I imagined the many things they might go through together — so many hardships that might make them cry, all the problems that they might be experiencing right now and the probability that one of them would outlive the other. And the one that outlives will think the life they spent together was the most beautiful period of their life.
They left, and I was sitting on my bench, shocked, and I had a special feeling in my heart. This feeling was hope! The old couple with all the complaints and tons of mistakes behind their backs made me realize that it was happiness that mattered in life. Eventually, all people would get old and die, and what made a difference was the person you had dedicated your life to. I made a wish — waking up one day, being old and feeling proud of being together with the person I loved to overcome all the obstacles ( 障碍) and fight for happiness.
（1）Why did the author become angry at the old couple's laugh? (no more than 15 words) （2）Why did the old couple look at each other all the time? (no more than 10 words)
（3）What was the author doing at that moment in Paragraph 4? (no more than 20 words) （4）What does the underlined word "dedicated" mean in the last paragraph? (1 word)
（5）How do you like the old couple? What can you learn from the passage? Please express it in your own words. (no more than 20 words)
【答案】（1）Because it had broken his unity with the park and disturbed his thoughts.
（2）Because they loved each other deeply.
（3）The author was wondering what made the old couple love each other so much/The author was imagining what the old couple might have gone through in life and made them love each other deeply.
（4）Devoted/ Give entirely.
（5）I think they are admirable/ encouraging/ a good example for us!We should cherish people who love us and fight for happiness with them together.
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文，作者通过记叙公园的一对彼此深爱的老夫妻而引发了自己对于追求幸福，克服所有障碍和自己爱的人在一起的感悟。

（1）考查细节理解。

根据第二段中的“At first, this laugh made me annoy ed as if they had broken my unity with this park and disturbed my thoughts.”可知作者对那对老夫妇的笑声感到生气，因为它们破坏了作者与这个公园的统一，扰乱了他的思绪。

故填Because it had broken his unity with the park and disturbed his thoughts.。

（3）考查细节理解。

根据第四段中的“I imagined the many things they might go through together — so many hardships that might make them cry, all the problems that they might be experiencing right now and the probability that one of them would outlive the other.”可知作者想象着他们可能一起经历的许多事情——那么多的困难可能会让他们哭泣，他们现在可能正在经历的所有问题，以及他们其中一个活得比另一个更长的可能性。

即作者是在思考是什么使这对老夫妇如此相爱。

故填The author was wondering what made the old couple love each other so much.或The author was imagining what the old couple might have gone through in life and made them love each other deeply.
（4）考查词义猜测。

根据上文“Eventually, all people would get old and die, and what made a d ifference was the person you had”可知最终，所有的人都会变老并死去，而真正起作用的是和你相伴一生的人，你为之奉献一生的人。

故可推测划线部分单词意思为"奉献"。

故填Devoted/ Give entirely.。

（5）本题为开放性题目，言之有理即可。

故填I think they are admirable/ encouraging/ a good example for us!（我认为他们是值得钦佩的/鼓舞的/为我们树立了一个好榜样!）或We should cherish people who love us and fight for happiness with them together.（我们应该珍惜爱我们的人，和他们一起为幸福而奋斗。

3．任务型阅读
This time of year, thousands of college applicants wait for e-notices and auspiciously(吉利地) sized envelopes from schools, under terrible pressure from their parents, friends, teachers, and themselves. As to this, I offer some advice, which comes not only from a bit of experience, but also a bit of research: just cool out and continue, okay?
Many parents and students think there is a world of difference between the lifelong outcomes of an A-minus student who gets into, say. Princeton, and an A-minus student who applies to Princeton but "only" gets into some less selective school, like Penn State or the University of Wisconsin. They assume that a decision made by faceless Ivy League admissions officers, to some extent, will mark the difference between success and failure in life.
There are two important things to say about this stress. First, to put the anxiety into context, the kids applying to these schools are already doing quite well. Seventy percent of 29--year--olds don't have a bachelor's degree, and the majority of BAs are earned at non-selective schools that accept a majority of their applicants. Many of the applicants have already won life's lottery.
But if that doesn't ease the nerves of the 40,000 people waiting on Stanford or Penn, here is a more encouraging conclusion from economics. For most applicants, it doesn't matter if they don't get into their top choice, according to a paper by Stacy Dale, a mathematician at Mathematica Policy Research, and Alan Krueger, an economist at Princeton University. They tracked two groups of students——-one that attended college in the 1970s and the other in the early 1990s. They wanted to know：Did students attending the most elite colleges earn more in their 30s. 40s. and 50s than students with similar SAT scores, who were rejected by elite colleges? The short answer was no. Or, in the author's language, the difference between the students who went to super-selective schools and the students with similar SAT scores rejected by those schools and went to less selective institutions was "indistinguishable from zero."
What does that mean? It means that, for many students, "who you are" is more important than where you go. It's hard to show that highly selective colleges add much earning power, even with their distinguished professors and professional networks. In addition, the decision of admissions officers isn't as important as the sum of the decisions, habits, and relationships students have built up to this point in their young life.
For the elite colleges themselves, the Dale-Krueger paper had additional, fascinating findings. It's found that the most selective schools do make an extraordinary difference in life earning for minority students from less--educated families who are more likely to rely on colleges to provide the training and job networks with great influence. Getting into Princeton if your parents went to Princeton? Fine, although not a game-changer. But getting into Princeton if your parents both left community college after a year? That could be game-changing. Whatever the results, it's more important to choose a university that is suited to the college applicants.
Personal/Individual；Nothing；influential；fit
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，对等待通知书而焦虑的人，作者提出的一些建议。

许多家长和学生认为，一个进入大学的学生的终身成绩之间存在着差异，但在后来的研究
调查中显示，对于许多学生来说，“你是谁”比你去哪里更重要。

但是无论如何，选择一所适合的大学对申请者而言更为重要。

（1）考查信息理解，根据第一段中的“under terrible pressure from their parents, friends, teachers, and themselves.”在父母，朋友，老师和他们自己的巨大压力下。

可知大学申请者在等待入学决定时往往感到压力，故填stressed/pressured。

（2）考查信息理解。

根据第一段中的“As to this, I offer some advice, which comes not only from a bit of experience，but also a bit of research: just cool out and continue, okay?”对此，我提出了一些建议，这些建议不仅仅来自于一些经验, 但也有一些研究：冷静下来，继续，好吗？carry on=continue，故填on。

（3）考查信息概括。

第二段是人们对此问题的设想，因此填 assumption。

（4）考查信息转换。

根据第二段中的“ They assume that a decision made by faceless Ivy League admissions officers, to some extent, will mark the difference between success and failure in life.”，可知人们普遍的一个误解是他们所上的学校会决定生活中的成功或失败。

故填 decided/determined。

（5）考查细节理解。

根据第三段中的“the kids applying to these schools are already doing quite well.”以及“Many of the applicants have already won life's lottery.”可知，申请顶尖大学的人其实在自己的人生中已经成功了一半，故填applying。

（6）考查信息转换。

根据第四段中的“Did students attending the most elite colleges earn more in their 30s. 40s. and 50s than students with similar SAT scores, who were rejected by elite colleges?”上精英大学的学生在30多岁，40多岁和50对岁的时候比有相似的SAT成绩，被精英大学拒绝的学生挣的钱多吗？reject=turn down，故填down。

（7）考查信息转换。

根据第五段中的“It means that, for many students, ‘who you are’is more important than where you go.”可知，学生的个人品质比他们去哪上大学更重要，故填Personal/Individual。

（8）考查信息转换。

根据第五段中的“In addition, the dec ision of admissions officers isn't as important as the sum of the decisions, habits, and relationships students have built up to this point in their young life.”另外，招生官员的决定并不像学生们在他们的年轻生活中已经建立起的决定，习惯和人际关系的总和那么重要，可知什么也没有比学生获得社交和解决问题的能力重要，故填Nothing。

（9）考查信息转换。

根据第六段中的“It's found that the most selective schools do make an extraordinary difference in life earning for minority students from less-educated families who are more likely to rely on colleges to provide the training and job networks with great influence”可知，择优录取的大学对家庭受教育水平较低的少数学生的生活收入有显著影响。

此处形容词作定语，故填 influential。

（10）考查信息理解。

根据最后一段中的“ Whatever the results, it's more important to choose a university that is suited to the college applicants.”不管结果如何，更重要的是选择一所适合申请人的大学。

可知填fit。

【点评】本题考点涉及信息理解，信息转换和信息概括三个题型的考查。

是一篇教育类阅读，要求考生准确掌握所给材料，结合相关的语法知识，做出正确答案。

5．任务型阅读
"Cleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice. Gifts are easy—they're given after all. Choices can be hard."
I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2300 percent per year. I'd never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30, and I'd been married for a year. I told my wife that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn't work since most start-ups don't and I wasn't sure what to expect. She told me I should go for it. As a young boy, I had been a garage inventor. I had always wanted to be an inventor, and she wanted me to follow my passion.
I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people and a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him that I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park，listened carefully to me and finally said, "That sounds like a really good idea，but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn't already have a good job." That logic made some sense to me，and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice，but ultimately, I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn't think I would regret trying and failing. And I suspected that I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.
After much consideration, I took the less secure path to follow my passion, and I'm proud of that choice. For all of us, in the end, we are our choices.
（1）What inspired the author to start Amazon 16 years ago? (No more than 15 words)
（2）How did the author's wife respond to his crazy idea of building an online bookstore? (No
more than 10 words)
（3）What was the attitude of the author's boss towards his starting a company online? (No more than 10 words)
（4）What's your understanding of the underlined sentence in the last paragraph? (No more than 15 words)
（5）What is the most important factor when you make your career choice? Give your reasons. (No more than 20 words)
【答案】（1）The fact that the Internet usage was growing sharply / fast per year. That the Internet usage was growing at 230 percent per year./The fact that more and more people were using the Internet.
（2）She responded by telling me to go for it / my dream. She wanted / inspired me to follow my passion.
（3）He thought it a good idea but unsuitable for me./He didn't support his idea (to start a company online)./He wasn't in favor of his idea (to start a company online). He held a negative attitude towards his idea.
（4）For all of us, our choices decide / determine who we are finally. For all of us, our choices determine what we get finally./For all of us, our choices have a great effect on our life / future finally.
（5）Interest, without which I can't devote myself to the career and overcome the challenge./Better career prospects. (A good pay.) I hope to choose a career that can lead me to a bright future.
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者16年看到互联网的迅猛增长因此有了创办亚马逊的想法，对此想法作者的妻子表示支持作者追求自己的梦想和激情，而作者的老板则持反对态度，最终作者选择了一条不太安全的道路来追寻我的激情，作者也为自己的选择感到自豪。

（1）考查细节理解。

根据第二段中的”I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2300 percent per year. I'd never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me.“我发现互联网的使用率以每年230%的速度增长。

我从来没有见过或听说过任何东西发展得这么快，而建立一个拥有数百万种图书的网上书店的想法让我非常兴奋。

可知促使作者在16年前创办了亚马逊是因为互联网的使用正以每年迅猛的速度增长，互联网使用率以每年230个百分点的速度增长以及越来越多的人使用互联网的事实。

故答案为The fact that the Internet usage was growing sharply / fast per year. That the Internet usage was growing at 230 percent per year./The fact that more and more people were using the Internet.。

（2）考查细节理解。

根据第二段中的”She told me I should go for it. As a young boy, I had been a garage inventor. I had always wanted to be an inventor, and she wanted me to follow my pa ssion.“她告诉我应该去。

当我还是个小男孩的时候，我就是一个车库发明家。

我一直想成为一名发明家，她希望我追随自己的激情。

可知作者的妻子对他建立网上书店的疯狂想法是告诉作者去追求自己的梦想和激情。

故答案为She responded by telling me to go for it / my dream. She wanted / inspired me to follow my passion.。

（3）考查推理判断。

根据第三段中的”He took me on a long walk in Cent ral Park，listened carefully to me and finally said,’That sounds like a really good idea，but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn't already have a good job.‘”他带我在中央公园散步了很长一段时间，仔细地听我说，最后他说:“这听起来真是个好主意，但对那些还没有找到好工作的人来说，这是个更好的主意。

”可知作者的老板对作者的想法是个好主意，但不适合作者，老板持反对态度。

故答案为He thought it a good idea but unsuitable for me./He didn't support his idea (to start a company online)./He wasn't in favor of his idea (to start a company online). He held a negative attitude towards his idea.。

（4）考查句义猜测。

根据最后一段中的“After much consideration, I took the less secure path to follow my passion, and I'm proud of that choice.”可知经过深思熟虑，作者选择了一条不太安全的道路来追寻自己的激情，也为自己的选择感到自豪。

作者的选择决定了作者最终会得到什么，对他的生活或未来也有很大的影响。

故可推测划线句子的意思是：对于我们所有人来说，我们的选择最终决定了我们是谁，决定了我们最终会得到什么，最终对我们的生活/未来有很大的影响。

故答案为For all of us, our choices decide / determine who we are finally. For all of us, our choices determine what we get finally./For all of us, our choices have a great effect on our life / future finally.。

（5）这是一道开放性题目，要求说出自己选择职业时最重要的因素是什么，答案言之有理即可。

可以说重要因素是个人兴趣、职业前景等等。

故可答Interest, without which I can't devote myself to the career and overcome the challenge./Better career prospects. (A good pay.) I hope to choose a career that can lead me to a bright future.
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，推理判断，句义猜测和开放性四个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，考生需要准确掌握所给材料，同时根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，概括和归纳，从而写出正确答案。

6．阅读下列短文，按照要求用英文回答问题。

I was in the country, Vietnam, from 1970 to 1971. I was a nineteen-year-old soldier. Six months after my arrival, I stepped on a land mine and lost my right foot. Although it was a painful experience, I also felt great relief and happiness. I knew it meant my plane ticket home. So I had mixed feelings after the accident.
Back in the US, I was fitted with an artificial leg and I threw away my uniform and my Purple Heart. They had no value to me. They reminded me of what I wasn't proud of and I had one constant reminder: one artificial leg.
Twenty-six years later, I participated in a bicycle race in Vietnam, which was designed for Americans and veterans (老兵) and civilians of Vietnam. In the race I formed a connection with Tran, a veteran of the former North Vietnam. Like me, Tran had also lost his leg due to a mine. But unlike me, he had also lost some family members in the Americans' bombing. He said he used to be filled with hate for Americans.
One day, I heard that he had slipped in the race by accident, and that his leg was hurting him. I offered him some medicine to ease his pain. He gave me a "thumbs up". He smiled his big smile. And that was enough. We had a special connection. Although language was an obstacle to our
communication, it didn't hinder us from conveying our friendship. In the race, we found that we could relax and enjoy each other's company, even without words.
During the race, I found his prosthesis (假肢) was not good, so I considered arranging a new prosthesis for him after returning home. And I invited him to visit my country. Joyfully, he agreed. When I returned home, I talked with my friend Jim, who owned the company where my prosthesis was made. I told him about Tran and why he should have a new prosthesis. Jim agreed. Later, Tran travelled to my country. We got Tran a new prosthetic leg. I was happy to give something to him—and in a way, to his country. At my daughters' school, he talked about forgiveness. Despite their country's loss, he found the place in his heart to forgive.
He is my friend, and I am happy that now our friendship will continue for the rest of our life.（1）Why did the author have mixed feelings after the accident? (no more than 10 words) （2）What does the underlined word in Paragraph 4 mean? (only 1 word)
（3）What did the author's friend, Jim, agree to do? (no more than 10 words)
（4）What was the change of Tran's feelings to Americans? (no more than 10 words)
（5）Why does the author say he and Tran will be friends for the rest of their life? Please give reasons in your own words. (no more than 20 words)
【答案】（1）Because although he was injured, he could returned home.
（2）Prevent.
（3）To make a new prosthesis for Tran for free.
（4）He turned hate to forgiveness.
（5）Open.
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者去越南参加自行车比赛时，遇到了和他遭遇相似的越南老兵，他们心意相通，成为了朋友。

作者回国后邀请Tran来美国并送给他新的假肢，他很感动，告诉作者他原谅了美国对他的伤害，作者觉得他们的友谊可以永远保持下去。

（1）考查细节理解。

根据第一段中的“Although it was a painful experience, I also felt grea t relief and happiness. I knew it meant my plane ticket home. So I had mixed feelings after the accident.”可知，作者虽然腿受了伤，但这意味着他可以回家，所以他的心情即痛苦又开心。

故本题答案为：Because although he was injured, he could return home.
（2）考查词义猜测。

根据第四段中的“Although language was an obstacle to our communication, it didn't hinder us from conveying our friendship.”可知，尽管语言是他们交流的障碍，但这并不……他们传达友情。

前后句为转折关系，故推测划线词的意思是“阻止”。

故本题答案为：Prevent。

（3）考查细节理解。

根据第五段中的“so I considered arranging a new prosthesis for him after returning home…When I returned home, I talked with my friend Jim, who owned the company where my prosthesis was made. I told him about Tran and why he should have a new prosthesis.”可知，作者回到美国后把想送给Tran新假肢的事情给朋友Jim说了，Jim对此想法表示赞同。

故本题答案为：To make a new prosthesis for Tran for free.

根据第三段中的“He said he used to be filled with hate for Americans.和倒数第二段的At my daughters' school, he talked about forgiveness.”可知，Tran对美国的态度。
