【題目】Read the passage and answer the questions

Our local Community (社區(qū)) Youth Club is a very popular organization with young people in my town. I have been a member for four years now and I've taken part in a lot of interesting projects. These include fun activities such as holiday camps and discos. We have even made a video.

But it isn't all just enjoyment. We have also started doing social work to help people in our neighbourhood. We have organized activities for small children during the holidays. We have also formed a special support group to help young people stop smoking.

We are especially proud of the most recent group we have created. It organizes regular visits to the local home for the elderly. This idea came from a school visit to a home for the elderly. My class spent an afternoon at the home and everyone found the visit very rewarding (有意義的).

The old people at the home were excited by our visit. They were very talkative (健談的) and they told us their personal stories. During our visit, the home was full of the sound of laughter. We sang songs and played games with the old people and had tea together. But we realized that life wasn't always easy. Some of them were in poor health and were very unhappy. They couldn't go outside and the visits by children brought some sunshine into their lives.

Many young people like me have very little contact with elderly people. As a result, we have a lot of wrong ideas about them. We have little or no idea of the kind of lives they lead in the homes. After this visit, my friends and I decided we should do something to help improve the quality of their lives.

Since the creation of our visiting group over twenty volunteers have joined us. Up to now, we have organized three group evening parties and a concert. But I think the individual (單獨(dú)的) visits are the most important. Club members regularly visit old people and everyone finds the experience rich and rewarding.

【題目】For most people, the word "fashion" means "clothes". But people may ask the question, "What clothes are in fashion?" And they use the word "fashionable" in the same way.

"She was wearing a fashionable coat. His shirt was really a fashionable colour. "

But of course there are fashions in many things, not only in clothes. There are fashions in holidays, in restaurants, in films and books. There are even fashions in school subjects, jobs ... and in languages.

Fashions change as time goes. If you look at pictures of people or things from the past, you will see that fashions have always changed. An English house of 1750 was different from one of 1650. A fashionable man in 1780 looked very different from his grandson in 1860.

Today fashions change very quickly. Some of this is natural. We hear about things much more quickly than in the past. Newspapers, radios, telephones and television send information from one country to another in a few hours.

New fashions mean that people will buy new things, so you see there is money in fashion.

【題目】 Mike Myers is a teacher at Chauncey Rose High School in Terre Haute, Indiana. Last year, he taught his students about the world’s rain forests. They learned that rain forests are important because the plants and animals of the rain forest give us food, wood, and medicine.

Destruction of the world’s rain forests is a serious problem. Unluckily, rain forests are disappearing at a rate of 80 acres (英畝) per minute! As part of a class project, Myers’ students bought three acres of rain forest in Central America. They paid $25 per acre. The students hope that the land they bought will be protected and not destroyed. The students became so interested in rain forests that they decided to get a closer look at a real rain forest.

So this June, Myers and four of his students took a boat ride down a river. They saw alligators and crocodiles. In the middle of the week, a guide took Myers and his students into the rain forest. “The monkeys were not happy that we were in their forest. They broke small branches off the trees and threw them at us,” one of the students said, “It was a great learning experience for all us,” said Myers.

Each student chose something specific about Costa Rica to study involving the plants, animals, food, and culture. During the last few days the group had time to do fun activities. They went whitewater rafting and horseback riding, and visited Costa Rica’s active volcano.

Myers hopes to make the trip every year with a different group of kids.

Myers also talked about the big disaster about the rain forest fires in the Amazonthe lungs of the Earth. The Amazon forests produce 20% of the world’s oxygen (氧氣). Even if it’s just a small part of the rain forests that are destroyed, it’s a great loss to the whole world. That means, once an area of land burns, it doesn’t regrow as forest. Now Myers’ students know that we should try to protect the rain forests, or the last drop of water on the earth will be our tears.

1How much did Myers’ students pay for the rain forest they bought?

A.$25B.$75C.$80D.$2000

2What did Myers and his students do at the beginning of the trip?

A.They went into the rain forest.B.They bought acres of rain forest.

C.They took a boat ride down a river.D.They visited Costa Rica’s active volcano.

3The word “Destruction” in paragraph 2 probably means “Being __________”

A.discoveredB.developedC.describedD.destroyed

4What will cause “The last drop of water on the earth will be our tears”?

A.Killing some pigs and beef for meat.

B.Cutting down a large amount of trees in the forest.

C.Buying some fruits grown in the rain forest.

D.Traveling in the rain forest.

5The passage mainly shows that Myers and his students __________.

A.did something to protect rain forest

B.wanted to buy the rain forest in Costa Rica

C.were interested in the culture of Costa Rica

D.went to the rain forest for various fun activities.
