I always felt sorry for the people in wheelchair. Some people, old and weak, cannot get around by themselves. Others seem perfectly healthy, dressed in business suits. But whenever I saw someone in a wheelchair, I only saw a disability, not a person.

One day, I fainted because of low blood pressure. It scared my parents. The doctor said that I must rest for a while. I agreed to take it easy but, as I stepped to the door, I saw my dad pushing a wheelchair in my direction! Feeling the color burn my face, I asked him to push that thing right back to where he found it.

I could not believe this was happening to me. Wheelchairs were fine for other people but not for me, as my father wheeled me out into the main street, people immediately began to treat me differently.

Little kids ran in front of me, forcing my father to stop the wheel chair suddenly. People looked down at me, pity in their eyes. Then they would look away, maybe because they thought the sooner they forgot me , the better they would feel.

“I’ m just like you!” I wanted to scream. “The only difference is you’ve got legs, and I have wheels. ” But I had to taste the bitterness (痛苦) by myself.

People in wheelchairs are not different. They see every look and hear each word. Looking out at the faces, I finally understood: I was once just like them. I treated people in wheelchairs exactly the way they did not want to be treated．I realized it is some of us with two healthy legs who are truly disabled.

1.The author once ________ when she was healthy.

A. laughed at disabled people

B. took pity on the people in wheelchair

C. wished herself to sit in a wheelchair

D. saw some healthy people moving around in wheelchairs

2.The underlined word “fainted” in Paragraph 2 means _________.

A. 癱瘓 B. 康復(fù) C. 暈倒 D. 出診

3.Facing the wheelchair for the first time, the author _______.

A. felt curious about it B. refused to accept it right away

C. thought it was ready for his father D. got ready to move around in it at once

4.The experience of the author tells us that “_________”.

A. Life is always the best teacher.

B. People often eat their bitter fruit.

C. Don’t do to others what you don’t want others to do to you.

D. Life is so changeable that nobody can know it until it happens.

Sweden's program of producing energy from rubbish is so successful, but recently its success has also produced a surprising problem. There is simply not enough rubbish in this country. It has been reported that only 4% of their rubbish goes into landfills (垃圾掩埋場(chǎng)). The rest 96% is recycled or more recently being reused as fuel(燃料) in their waste-to-energy factories that are able to deal with up to 2 million tons of rubbish every year. And this situation has made Sweden face the serious and special problem mentioned above.

Sweden has recently begun buying much waste every year from other countries, such as Norway, Bulgaria, Romania and Italy. These countries depend heavily on landfills. In the United States, where about 250 million tons of rubbish was produced in 2010 alone, only about 34% was recycled. As a result, more than half of their waste was put in landfills.

Sweden is now paid by Norway to take its waste away. Sweden not only gets money from other countries but also changes the waste into energy in Sweden, which provides electricity（電） and heating（供熱） for many homes. It’s a win-win（雙贏） situation. Clever!

Sweden is leading the way in waste management, but it is one of few. Most countries’ technology in dealing with waste needs improving. We live in a world that is full of rubbish like plastic bags and beer bottles. Sweden’s waste management offers a look into the future where countries can make money from their rubbish and not just put it in the ocean or put it in landfills.

1.Which country pays Sweden for taking its rubbish away?

_________________________________________________________________________

2.How does America deal with most of its waste?

_________________________________________________________________________

3.What is Sweden’s surprising problem?

_________________________________________________________________________

4.Why does it say that Sweden has a win-win situation in waste management?

5.How many tons of rubbish was produced in America in 2010?

The meaning of silence varies among cultural groups. Silences may be thoughtful, or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say. A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness, uneasiness, or worry. Silence perhaps viewed by some cultural groups as quite uncomfortable; therefore tries may be made to fill every gap （間隙） with conversation. Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a person’s needs.

Many local Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people, just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do. Therefore, when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and suddenly stops, what perhaps shows is that the man wants the listener to consider what has been said before continuing. In these cultures, silence is a call for reflection（反應(yīng)）.

Other cultures may use silence in other ways, particularly when dealing with conflicts（沖突） among people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power. For example, Russian, French, and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic under discussion. However, Mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in power rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her. In still another use, persons in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect, especially to an elder or a person in power.

Nurses and other care-givers need to realize the possible meanings of silence when they come across the personal anxiety（焦慮）their patients may be experiencing. Nurses should learn about their own personal and cultural situation of silence so that a patient’s silence is not stopped too early or allowed to go on unnecessarily. A nurse who understands the curing value of silence can use this understanding to help in the care of patients from their own and from other cultures.

1.Which of the following people might regard silence as a call for careful thought?

A. The Chinese. B. The French. C. The Mexicans. D. The Russians.

2.What does the writer advise nurses to do about silence?

A. Let it continue as the patient pleases. B. Break it while treating patients.

C. Study its harm to patients. D. Make use of its healing effects.

3.What may be the best title for the text?

A. Sound and Silence B. What It Means to Be Silent

C. Silence to Native Americans D. Speech Is Silver; Silence Is Gold

1.A 2.D 3.B 【解析】 文章大意：本文是一篇科教類閱讀，文中主要講的是沉默在不同的文化中所代表的含義。 1.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中的句子just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do. Therefore, when a person from one of these cultures is spea...

How to protect children from unsafe material online has long been discussed in the USA. For some parents, the Internet seems like a jungle, filled with danger for their children. But jungles contain (包括) wonders as well as dangers.

Most kids have started to use search engines. Many of them are great at finding lots of interesting websites, and they can also locate places where you might not want your kids to go. There are search engines designed just for kids. A certain software contains only sites that have been selected as safe. The most popular way to limit access would be to use what is known as a ‘content screener (過(guò)濾器)’. But this can’t be wholly reliable (可靠的), and the best thing parents can do is to talk to their kids and let them know what is OK or not OK to see or do on the Internet. Another way is that Mum or Dad is nearby when the child is surfing the Internet.
