根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容填空，每空不超過4個單詞。
Mary didn’t understand such sentences as “You are yellow.” “She has a green thumb( 拇指 ).” “ He has told me a white lie.” And so on. So she went to her English teacher for help.
Mary : Mrs. Smith, there is a color in each of these sentences. Could you tell me what they mean?
Mrs. Smith: In English, yellow sometimes means afraid. Blue means sad. A person with a green thumb grows plants well. And a white lie is not a bad one.
Mary: Would you give me an example for a white lie?
Mrs. Smith: Certainly. Now I give you some cakes. In fact you don’t like them, but you won’t say so. Instead you say, “No, I’m not hungry.” That is a white lie.
Mary : Oh, I see. Thank you very much.
小題1:Mary did not understand the sentences and asked Mrs. Smith for ______________.
小題2:You are blue today means you feel _____________.
小題3:I don’t have a _______________, so all my plants are dead.
小題4:My friend didn’t want me to know the fact of the accident. He told me_____________.
小題5:This passage is about _____________ and their meanings.

小題1:help
小題2:sad
小題3:green thumb
小題4:a white lie
小題5:some sentences

1. help 根據(jù)So she went to her English teacher for help可知Mary向她的老師Mrs. Smith尋求幫助，故用help。
2. sad 根據(jù)下面Mrs. Smith的解釋：In English, yellow sometimes means afraid. Blue means sad可知藍(lán)色代表的sad。
3. green thumb 文章說A person with a green thumb grows plants well，有a green thumb的植物生長得好，那么沒有就可能會死，這里是反著來說的。
4. a white lie善意的謊言。下文舉例蛋糕的事，你不想吃可以說我不餓，其實就是一個a white lie。故你不想告訴別人實情，就可用這種方式。
5. some sentences 從文章中Mrs. Smith與Mary的對話，老師提到了許多與顏色有關(guān)的句子，故答案為some sentences。

請閱讀下面關(guān)于寵物的材料，給A—E選擇恰當(dāng)?shù)臉?biāo)題。
A. Many people like animals and take them as their pets. Pet hospitals are very busy. Kind persons who love animals are needed to work in busy animal hospitals. They will teach you the job.
B. Scientists think that pets will probably be much smaller, because people in the future will be living in much smaller spaces. Scientists are already working on making very small farm animals. The same things might be done to make smaller cats and dogs.
C. might have to start turning wild（野生的）animals into pets. This might be the only way to save them from dying out.
D. What about a robot（機器人）for a pet? This may sound silly, but it could become true. Robot dogs have been made to get things, to bark like real dogs. These “pets” might become more and more popular in the future. After all, robots don’t lose hair or eat things the way real pets do.
E. Lots of people miss their pets while they are on holiday. One hotel in Minnesota has solved this problem. They lend cats to their guests. Many experts（專家）believe this idea will become more and more popular. It is very possible that in the future you will be able to have a pet while in a hotel.

We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waster every day and it does harm to our environment. Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you to live a green life.
Remember these three words; reduce, reuse and recycle（減量、再使用和再循環(huán)）.
Reduce means “use less”. Don’t waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new, think if it is really necessary or maybe the old one will be just as good! When we do buy things, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many things from abroad.
Reuse means “use again”. Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time. We should take care of them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don’t use a paper cup or a paper bag. It’s better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.
Recycle means “change things into something else”. Although it takes energy to change something into something else, it’s better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your neighbourhood and take part in recycling programmes. We should also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.
