【題目】 The coffee shop Starbucks will give people a discount if they bring their own cups. It wants to cut down on the number of paper cups that are put in the rubbish bins. It is part of a two-month experiment in cafes in England. Starbucks wants to reduce waste and recycle more, The president of Starbucks in the UK said, "We are very happy to increase recycling rates(比率)，and reusable cups are a key part of our waste reduction plan." Bosses will decide later if they will continue the discounts. People who bring their own cups will not get a discount on the cafe's cheaper filter coffee.

The problem of paper cups has been in the news a lot. Around seven million cups are thrown away every day. Reporters say that some cafes lie about how many paper cups they recycle. The reporters say the cafes do not recycle as many cups as they say. Customers wrongly believe that a coffee shop is environmentally friendly. Less than one in 400 paper cups at coffee shops are recycled. A coffee drinker said she would bring her own cup. She said, "I am so sad that cafes recycle so little. I thought they were more responsible."

本文介紹了星巴克咖啡給自帶杯子的顧客打折，通過這種方式，減少紙杯的浪費(fèi)，促進(jìn)環(huán)保。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“The coffee shop Starbucks will give people a discount if they bring their own cups.”可知，如果人們自帶杯子，星巴克咖啡店會給他們打折。故選C。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“It is part of a two-month experiment in cafes in England.”可知，給自帶杯顧客打折是英國咖啡館兩個(gè)月實(shí)驗(yàn)的一部分，所以此次實(shí)驗(yàn)會持續(xù)兩個(gè)月。故選B。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“Around seven million cups are thrown away every day.”可知，每天大約有七百萬杯子被扔掉，所以此處是“人們在咖啡館浪費(fèi)的是紙杯子”。故選C。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“She said, "I am so sad that cafes recycle so little. I thought they were more responsible."”可知，咖啡館回收再利用杯子的情況太少了，咖啡館應(yīng)該有更多的責(zé)任，所以此處是“當(dāng)人們知道咖啡館浪費(fèi)了許多杯子以后，感到很悲傷”。故選D。

【5】主旨大意題。根據(jù)“It wants to cut down on the number of paper cups that are put in the rubbish bins.”和“We are very happy to increase recycling rates(比率)，and reusable cups are a key part of our waste reduction plan.”可知，星巴克咖啡想通過循環(huán)再使用杯子以降低被浪費(fèi)的杯子數(shù)量，進(jìn)而減少廢棄物，改善環(huán)境，所以這篇文章主要是與環(huán)境有關(guān)。故選D。

【題目】We each have a memory. That’s why we can still remember things after a long time. Some people have very good memories and they can easily learn many things by heart, but some people can only remember things when they say or do them again and again. Many of the great men of the world have got surprising memories.

A good memory is a great help in learning a language. Everybody learns his mother language when he is a small child. He hears the sounds, remembers them and then he learns to speak. Some children are living with their parents in foreign countries. They can learn two languages as easily as one because they hear, remember and speak two languages every day.

At school it is not so easy to learn a foreign language because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too. But your memory will become better and better when you do more and more exercises.
