Watch out..B.Nowadays, the food that you buy comes from many different countries.Have a look in your fridge, cupboard, and fruit bowl and check the origins(来源) of the food.Perhaps there are apples from California, lamb from New Zealand, or potatoes from Egypt? You will probably be surprised how_____food travels to get to your plate.This journey, from “field to plate”, is called“food miles”.A food mile is the distance that food travels from the farmer’s field to the person who buys the f ood.Nowadays, food often travels thousands of miles to get to the consumer(消费者).Why is this, and what are the effects(影响) of these long distances?Traditionally, farmers sold their food in the local market so the food didn’t have to travel very far.The consumers also did not travel very far, because they went to their local market to buy the food.This was a good system for farmers and consumers.However, there were some ______.For example, consumers could only buy food that farmers produced locally.In addition, they could only get food that was in season.Now, because of modern technology, food comes from all over the world.We do not have to wait for spring or summer to buy strawberries ortomatoes.They are______in winter if we want.Some countries have to import(进⼝) most of their food.This is because they have difficult climates.The United ArabEmirates(UAE), for example, gets 85% of its food from other countries.______food made in the UAE often uses imported materials.What’s wrong with“food miles”? Is this not a good way of increasing international trade? I believe these miles are ______for a number of reasons.First of all, because food travels such long distances.we need more planes, lorries, and ships to move the food.This means we use more oil or petrol, so there is more pollution and more global(全球的) warming.______, food thattravels a long way is not fresh and usually not very tasty.Tomatoes, for example, are picked early and stored for their long journey.For this reason, they are usually tasteless when they get to the consumer.Local food has a better taste, a nd it also reduces the amount of global pollution.We need to buy more local food.1.A.early B. interesting C. far D. accurate2.A. disadvantage B. results C. methods D .links3.A.delicious B.dramatic C. colourful D.available4.A.Yet B.Even C.Still D.Again5.A.worrying B.

The living room was large enough for their piano. That night, the two of them sat side by side at the piano. They played jazz music to celebrate their new home. The loud music filled the room and made them feel very happy.The next morning,however, their happiness disappeared. Someone had left a note under their door during the night. One of their neighbor had written to complain(抱怨) about the sound of the piano. Dario’s mother asked the building superintendent(管理员) if he knew anything about it. But he said that they were all nice people and he couldn’t imagine any of them had done that. Later that morning, Dario suggested that they write a letter to their neighbors and apologize for their playing.“Maybe we could go and visit everyone in person.” his mother said.“What if we invited them to come here for a party instead? Dario asked.They both loved the idea. Over the next few days, they sent out invitations and prepared desserts for their guests. They decorated the apartment with streamers(彩带) and party lights.Finally, the day of the party arrived. Some guests brought presents. Others brought flowers. Some even brought desserts to share. One woman, Mrs. Gilbert, gave Dario’s mother with a book of piano music by Chopin.“I heard you playing the other night,” she said. “The sounds woke me out of bed. I was afraid that you might play like this every night. So I wrote a short note. I hope you don’t think I disliked the playing.”Dario’s mother smiled at Mrs. Gilbert. “I think maybe we should apologize to you.” she said. “I didn’t realize how late it was when we were playing. Maybe we should play so me quieter music at night.“You play, you play!” Mrs. Gilbert said. “I like what you play! Just not so loud at night.” She pointed to the book she had given them. “These songs are not such loud music.”“These songs are beautiful music.” Dario’s mother said. “We will be happy to play them in the evening.”“And we won’t play so loud or late!” Dario said. He was already looking forward to practicing the new music. More than that, however, he was happy to see the big smile on his mother’s face. It gave him a feeling of warmth and made him feel that they were home at last.1.How was the jazz music Dario and his mother played one night ?_________________________________________________________________________________2.Did Dario and his mother visit their neighbors or write a letter to their neighbors?_______________________________________________________________________________ __3.What did Dario and his mother do to their neighbor later?_______________________________________________________________________________ __4.Who wrote a short note to Dario and his mother?_______________________________________________________________________________ __5.Why did Mrs Gillbert send them a book of piano music by Chopin?_______________________________________________________________________________ __6.What can you learn from the story?

Reading comprehensionA. Choose the best answerOnce upon a time if we wanted to make a phone call or wait for someone to contact us, we had to sit at home or at our desks. There were public phones in the street of course, but it could be hard to find onethat was working and there were often long queues to use them. And of course you had to bring a lot of coins to pay for the calls.So people didn't phone their friends as often. Mobile phones, these small pieces of electronic equipment which allow us to talk with friends and family while we are on the move, have greatly changed the way we live. Before the age of the mobile phone, our loved ones would sit around worried sick if we were late coming home. There were no quick calls to tell mum that there would be additional guests coming for dinner. We would have to depend on notes left on fridges or desks to communicate messages.But mobile phones have also had a negative effect and what people don't seem to realize is that we've lost something very valuable: our privacy. Now our friends and family can contact us wherever and whenever they want to. We can never get away from them. The way people communicate with each other is totally different now. It's difficult to have a conversation face-to-face with a friend without beingdisturbed every couple of minutes by the ring of their phones, ,most people don't see anything wrong in having a long conversation on their mobile phone while forgetting all about the person sitting opposite. It seems the art of real conversation may be dying.Of course, people could leave their mobile phones at home or even switch them off but no one ever does that. Why not? Because the worrying thing is we can't live without our phones. We've become communication addicts, unable to spend even a few minutes out of contact, in case we miss something 'important'.69. What does the underlined sentence tell us?A) No all-day public phone service was provided in the street.B) Public phones were in poor condition and not always available.C) Public phones were everywhere but they were always in use.D) You could always see people repairing the public phones.70. What's the writer's point about usingtelephones before the invention of mobile phones?A) Using a telephone was expensive.B) Phone calls were much shorter.C) People made fewer phone calls.D) People relied on notes a lot.71. What does the writer think about life before mobile phones?A) Life was less convenient.B) People were more punctual.C) Things were more relaxed.D) Everyone managed very well.72. What's the writer's main argument against mobile phones?A) They have damaged relationships.B) We give out too much information.C) They are harmful to our body and mind.D) It's impossible to escape from them.73. Which word best describes how the writer feels about the use of mobile phones.'?A) Disappointed. B) Satisfied.C) Worried. D) Surprised.74. What's the writer's main purpose in writingthis article?A) To inform people about means of communication in the past.B) To show disadvantages of the way people communicate today.C) To advise readers to stop using the mobile phone.D) To compare different types of phone conversation.B. Choose the words or expressions and complete the passageThe International Climate Champions (ICC) project began in 2007. It gives young people of school age a chance to speak publicly on climate change and to call on people to take action to reduce its 75 .Each country involved selects three teenagers to be Climate Champions, who take part in local and international activities.Climate Champion Irene Sanna lived on the Italian island of Sardinia. Irene is interested in solar energy, and 76 believes that Sardinia shoulduse the waves around its coast to produce electricity. 'We must make our plans to save our coast, which still has no pollution. We must protect the animals, birds and fish in danger from global warming. And we must recycle.'Chinese student Ding Yinghan is the Beijing Climate Champion. Ding feels it is not 77 to say that just one country - his own - is causing climate change. He says the air pollution that leads to global warming comes from many parts of the world, including poorer countries that are now growing more quickly. He believes the only way to 78 the situation getting even worse is for rich and poor countriesto work together.Sophia Angelis, a junior student in California, is a US Champion. She's against young people's generation lack of interest in politics and feels they need to discuss the problems that really matter to their generation. Sophia strongly believes that climate change is an important issue for her generation. For her, 79 in the way teenagers behave are an important way of influencing choicesmade by parents.In 2008, the Climate Champion attended the International Conference of Environment Ministers in the Japanese city of Kobe. 80 ,30 countries are involved in the ICC, and more countries are expected to join soon.75.

Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper wordsSomeone sent me a group e-mail the other day. One of those that end with: send this to 10 friends ...I liked the story and it really got me thinking.Here's the story from the e-mail:Recently I overheard a father and a daughter in their last moments together at the a 81 . They had announced the departure.Standing near the security gate, they hugged and the father said, 'I love you, and I wish you enough.' They kissed and the daughter left. The father walked over to the window where I was seated.I tried to leave him some privacy, but I could not keep m 82 from asking:'When you were saying good-bye, I heard you say, 'I wish you enough.' May I ask what that means?'He began to smile. 'That's a wish that is p 83 on from generation to generation. My parents used to say it to everyone.'He paused a moment and looked up as if tryingto remember it in d 84 , and he smiled evenmore. 'When we said, 'I wish youenough,' we were wanting the other person tohave a life filled with just enough good thingsto carry them on.'T 85 , slowly turning toward me, he shared the following as if he were reciting it from memory.I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude b 86 no matter how gray the day may appear.I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun even more.I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive and everlasting.I wish you enough pain so that even the s87 of joys in life may appear bigger.I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final good-bye.D. Read what Claire did and answer the questionsMy stay in the rainforestLast year, I left my job and went to Borneo to work without pay in the rainforest. So many peoplehave said to me, 'I would love to do something like that,' and I say, 'If you want to, just do it.' They always reply, 'l can't.' But, if you really want to do it, there are ways to make it happen.After three day's training, I started work on an environmental project with a group of young people. The accommodation was very basic and we had to build our own place to sleep. This consisted of a simple bed, a cloth roof and a net to keep insects (昆虫) out.It was never dangerous there, but it was very challenging (挑战的). There were things that we didn't think we would manage to do, but we did. I had some of my worst moments there, but also some of my best - it made me feel alive. I didn't miss my home comforts as much as I'd thought I might. We had food, water, somewhere to stay, about three sets of clothes and really good conversation. We were in the most beautiful place and we had things to keep us busy. We didn't need any more.One of the teenagers said, 'Before we came here, it was really important to me what clothes I woreand who my friends were. I was always thinking about shoes, but really none of that matters. Here, people accept me for who I am, what I believe and think, not for what kind of clothes I've got.'

time if we wanted to make a phone call or wait for someone to contact us,we had to sit at home or at our desks.There were public phones in the street of course,but it could be hard to find one that was working and there were often long queues to use them.And of course you had to bring a lot of coins to pay for the calls.So people didn't phone their friends as often.Mobile phones,these small pieces of electronic equipment which allow us to talk with friends and family while we are on the move,have greatly changed the way we live.Before the age of the mobile phone,our loved ones would sit around worried sick if we were late coming home.There were no quick calls to tell mum that there would be additional guests coming for dinner.We would have to depend on notes left on fridges or desks to communicate messages.But mobile phones have also had a negative effect and what people don't seem to realize is that we've lost something very valuable:our privacy.Now our friends and family can contact us wherever and whenever they want to.We can never get away from them.The way people communicate with each other is totally different now.It's difficult to have a conversation face-to-face with a friend without being disturbed every couple of minutes by the ring of their phones,,most people don't see anything wrong in having a long conversation on their mobile phone while forgetting all about the person sitting opposite.It seems the art of real conversation may be dying.Of course,people could leave their mobile phones at home or even switch them off but no one ever does that.Why not?Because the worrying thing is we can't live without our phones.We've become communication addicts,unable to spend even a few minutes out of contact,in case we miss something 'important'.69.What does the underlined sentence tell us?A)No all-day public phone service was provided in the street.B)Public phones were in poor condition and not always available.C)Public phones were everywhere but they were always in use.D)You could always see people repairing the public phones.70.What's the writer's point about using telephones before the invention of mobile phones?A)Using a telephone was expensive.B)Phone calls were much shorter.C)People made fewer phone calls.D)People relied on notes a lot.71.What does the writer think about life before mobile phones?A)Life was less convenient.B)People were more punctual.C)Things were more relaxed.D)Everyone managed very well.72.What's the writer's main argument against mobile phones?A)They have damaged relationships.B)We give out too much information.C)They are harmful to our body and mind.D)It's impossible to escape from them.73.Which word best describes how the writer feels about the use of mobile phones.'?A)Disappointed.B)Satisfied.C)Worried.D)Surprised.74.What's the writer's main purpose in writing this article?A)To inform people about means of communication in the past.B)To show disadvantages of the way people communicate today.C)To advise readers to stop using the mobile phone.D)To compare different types of phone conversation.B.Choose the words or expressions and complete the passageThe International Climate Champions(ICC)project began in2007.It gives young people of school age a chance to speak publicly on climate change and to call on people to take action to reduce its75. Each country involved selects three teenagers to be Climate Champions,who take part in local and international activities.Climate Champion Irene Sanna lived on the Italian island of Sardinia.Irene is interested in solar energy, and76believes that Sardinia should use the waves around its coast to produce electricity.'We must make our plans to save our coast,which still has no pollution.We must protect the animals,birds and fish in danger from global warming.And we must recycle.'Chinese student Ding Yinghan is the Beijing Climate Champion.Ding feels it is not77to say that just one country-his own-is causing climate change.He says the air pollution that leads to global warming comes from many parts of the world,including poorer countries that are now growing more quickly.He believes the only way to78the situation getting even worse is for rich and poor countriesto work together.Sophia Angelis,a junior student in California,is a US Champion.She's against young people's generation lack of interest in politics and feels they need to discuss the problems that really matter to their generation.Sophia strongly believes that climate change is an important issue for her generation.For her, 79in the way teenagers behave are an important way of influencing choices made by parents.In2008,the Climate Champion attended the International Conference of Environment Ministers in the Japanese city of Kobe.80,30countries are involved in the ICC,and more countries are expected to join soon.75.A)support B)amount C)costs D)effects76.A)hardly B)also C)never D)only77.A)proud B)common C)fair D)important78.A)protect B)improve C)prevent D)explain79.A)changes B)problems C)characters D)advantages80.A)After all B)At present C)For example D)What's moreC.Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper wordsSomeone sent me a group e-mail the other day.One of those that end with:send this to10friends (I)liked the story and it really got me thinking.Here's the story from the e-mail:Recently I overheard a father and a daughter in their last moments together at the a81.They had announced the departure.Standing near the security gate,they hugged and the father said,'I love you,and I wish you enough.' They kissed and the daughter left.The father walked over to the window where I was seated.I tried to leave him some privacy,but I could not keep m82from asking:'When you were saying good-bye,I heard you say,'I wish you enough.'May I ask what that means?' He began to smile.'That's a wish that is p83on from generation to generation.My parents used to say it to everyone.'He paused a moment and looked up as if trying to remember it in d84,and he smiled even more.'When we said,'I wish you enough,'we were wanting the other person to have a life filled with just enough good things to carry them on.'T85,slowly turning toward me,he shared the following as if he were reciting it from memory.I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude b86no matter how gray the day may appear.I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun even more.I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive and everlasting.I wish you enough pain so that even the s87of joys in life may appear bigger.I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final good-bye.D.Read what Claire did and answer the questionsMy stay in the rainforestLast year,I left my job and went to Borneo to work without pay in the rainforest.So many people have said to me,'I would love to do something like that,'and I say,'If you want to,just do it.'They always reply,'l can't.'But,if you really want to do it,there are ways to make it happen.After three day's training,I started work on an environmental project with a group of young people. The accommodation was very basic and we had to build our own place to sleep.This consisted of a simple bed,a cloth roof and a net to keep insects(昆虫)out.It was never dangerous there,but it was very challenging(挑战的).There were things that we didn't think we would manage to do,but we did.I had some of my worst moments there,but also some of my best -it made me feel alive.I didn't miss my home comforts as much as I'd thought I might.We had food, water,somewhere to stay,about three sets of clothes and really good conversation.We were in the most beautiful place and we had things to keep us busy.We didn't need any more.One of the teenagers said,'Before we came here,it was really important to me what clothes I wore and who my friends were.I was always thinking about shoes,but really none of that matters.Here,people accept me for who I am,what I believe and think,not for what kind of clothes I've got.'When she said that, it summed it up for me.88.Did Claire get any money from the work in Borneo?89.What did Claire do before she started work on an environmental project?90.How was Claire's'bedroom'in the rainforest?91.What did the teenager care about before she came to Borneo?92.How did Claire feel about the experience of living in the rainforest?93.What do you think might be the worst moments Claire had during her stay in the rainforest?VII.Writing94.In at least60words,write a letter to your headmaster suggesting rules you think should be changed or improved.Support your opinions with facts or examples.(给校长写一封至少60个词的信,向他建议几条需要改变或改进的学校规则,并辅以事实或例子。

"Scientists can change the world and can improve life for everyone. We also needmore people who want to teach science and do scientific research."But there was bad news from Professor George Benson, a research scientist and universityScience teacher, who was also at the conference. “Science courses at university are very good," he said, “but there's a real problem with Scien ce teaching in schools. One in three people who teach Physics to 1 S-and 16-ycar-olds don’t have a physical degree. Not enough people are studying Science at university and this means that there are not enough science teachers."Mrs. Wallace didn't agree. “It’s true that the number of Science pupils fell between 2000 and 2010,” she said. “But now the numbers are rising again. The number of students who take Science subjects at school is much higher now than it was five years ago.”Professor Benson was certa in that numbers were still too low and added, ‘There’s still a problem with science lessons in schools. Most young people think that Science is boring or difficult or both. We have to find ways to interest 12-16 year olds in studying Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Old-fashioned teaching methods have to change. We must spread the news that Science is very important, but it can also be fun."88. What does Hazel Wallace do?89. Who was the conference for?90. The number of science pupils is falling, isn’t it?91. According to Benson, what can teachers do to make Science lessons more interesting?92. What might be the topic of the conference?93. Will you choose Science as your major at university Why or why not (Explain in 2-3 sentences.)VII. Writing (作文): (共 20 分)94. Write a passage of at least 60 words on the topic “Haze weather in Shanghai”.(以“上海的雾霾天“为题写一篇不少于60个词的短文,标点符号不占格。

"Scientists can change the world and can improve life for everyone. We also needmore people who want to teach science and do scientific research."But there was bad news from Professor George Benson, a research scientist and universityScience teacher, who was also at the conference. “Science courses at university are very good," he said, “but there's a real problem with Science teaching in schools. One in three people who teach Physics to 1 S-and 16-ycar-olds don’t have a physical degree. Not enough people are studying Science at university and this means that there are not enough science teachers."Mrs. Wallace didn't agree. “It’s true that the number of Science pupils fell between 2000 and 2010,” she said. “But now the numbers are rising again. The number of students who take Science subjects at school is much higher now than it was five years ago.”Professor Benson was certain that numbers were sti ll too low and added, ‘There’s still a problem with science lessons in schools. Most young people think that Science is boring or difficult or both. We have to find ways to interest 12-16 year olds in studying Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Old-fashioned teaching methods have to change. We must spread the news that Science is very important, but it can also be fun."88. What does Hazel Wallace do89. Who was the conference for90. The number of science pupils is falling, isn’t it91. According to Benson, what can teachers do to make Science lessons more interesting92. What might be the topic of the conference93.

Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them. It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that “reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible”.Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes .They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to plan cleverly the most efficient (有效的) system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also a public activity:It can be seen and observed.Learning to read involves all that each individual does to understand the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private,for learning is an occupation of the mind,and that process is not open to public scrutiny.If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable,what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the long search for knowledge?Smith has one principle rule for all teaching instructions.“Make learning to read easy,which means making reading a meaningful,enjoyable and frequent experience for children.”When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are,and when both teacher and learner fulfill them properly,then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is got rid of. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the chance to solve the problem of learning to read by learning.36.The problem with the reading course as mentioned in the first paragraph is that________.A.too much time is spent in teaching about readingB.reading tasks are given with little guidanceC.it is one of the most difficult school coursesD.students spend limited hours in reading37.The teaching of reading will be successful if________.A.teachers can make their teaching activities observableB.teachers can teach their students how to readC.teachers can improve conditions at school for the studentsD.teachers can enable students to develop their own way of reading 38.The word “scrutiny” (Paragraph 3 ) most probably means “________”.A.unbelief B.control C.inquiry D.observation39.The main idea of the passage is that ________.A.reading is more complicated than believableB.reading ability is something gained rather than taughtC.teachers should encourage students to read as widely as possible D.teachers should do as little as possible in helping students learn to read。

Reading comprehensionA. Choose the best answerOnce upon a time if we wanted to make a phone call or wait for someone to contact us, we had to sit at home or at our desks. There were public phones inthe street of course, but it could be hard to find one that was working and there were often long queues to use them. And of course you had to bring a lot of coins to pay for the calls.So people didn't phone their friends as often. Mobile phones, these small pieces of electronic equipment which allow us to talk with friends and family while we are on the move, have greatly changed the way we live. Before the age of the mobile phone, our loved ones would sit around worried sick if we were late coming home. There were no quick calls to tell mum that there would be additional guests coming for dinner. We would have to depend on notes left on fridges or desks to communicate messages.But mobile phones have also had a negative effect and what people don't seem to realize is that we've lost something very valuable: our privacy. Now our friends and family can contact us wherever and whenever they want to. We can never get away from them. The way people communicate with each other is totally different now. It's difficult to have aconversation face-to-face with a friend without being disturbed every couple of minutes by the ring of their phones, ,most people don't see anything wrong in having a long conversation on their mobile phone while forgetting all about the person sitting opposite. It seems the art of real conversation may be dying.Of course, people could leave their mobile phones at home or even switch them off but no one ever does that. Why not? Because the worrying thing is we can't live without our phones. We've become communication addicts, unable to spend even a few minutes out of contact, in case we miss something 'important'.69.

'We must make our plans to save our coast, which still has no pollution. We must protect the animals, birds and fish in danger from global warming.

He says the air pollution that leads to global warming comes from many parts of the world, including poorer countries that are now growing more quickly. He believes the only way to 78 the situation getting even worse is for rich and poor countriesto work together.Sophia Angelis, a junior student in California, is a US Champion.

They had announced the departure.Standing near the security gate, they hugged and the father said, 'I love you, and I wish you enough.' They kissed and the daughter left. The father walked over to the window where I was seated.I tried to leave him some privacy, but I could not keep m 82 from asking:'When you were saying good-bye, I heard you say, 'I wish you enough.' May I ask what that means?'He began to smile. 'That's a wish that is p 83 on from generation to generation. My parents used to say it to everyone.'He paused a moment and looked up as if tryingto remember it in d 84 , and he smiled evenmore. 'When we said, 'I wish youenough,' we were wanting the other person tohave a life filled with just enough good thingsto carry them on.'T 85 , slowly turning toward me, he shared the following as if he were reciting it from memory.I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude b 86 no matter how gray the day may appear.I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun even more.I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive and everlasting.I wish you enough pain so that even the s87 of joys in life may appear bigger.I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final good-bye.D. Read what Claire did and answer the questionsMy stay in the rainforestLast year, I left my job and went to Borneo towork without pay in the rainforest. So many people have said to me, 'I would love to do something like that,' and I say, 'If you want to, just do it.' They always reply, 'l can't.' But, if you really want to do it, there are ways to make it happen.After three day's training, I started work on an environmental project with a group of young people. The accommodation was very basic and we had to build our own place to sleep. This consisted of a simple bed, a cloth roof and a net to keep insects (昆虫) out.It was never dangerous there, but it was very challenging (挑战的). There were things that we didn't think we would manage to do, but we did. I had some of my worst moments there, but also some of my best - it made me feel alive. I didn't miss my home comforts as much as I'd thought I might. We had food, water, somewhere to stay, about three sets of clothes and really good conversation. We were in the most beautiful place and we had things to keep us busy. We didn't need any more.One of the teenagers said, 'Before we came here,it was really important to me what clothes I wore and who my friends were. I was always thinking about shoes, but really none of that matters. Here, people accept me for who I am, what I believe and think, not for what kind of clothes I've got.' When she said that, it summed it up for me.88. Did Claire get any money from the work in Borneo?89. What did Claire do before she started work on an environmental project?90. How was Claire's 'bedroom' in the rainforest?91. What did the teenager care about before she came to Borneo?92. How did Claire feel about the experience of living in the rainforest?93.
