     English families face being limited to 80 bags of rubbish a year. Households throwing away
more waste will have to take it to the tip (垃圾站) or buy a limited number of extra bags.
     Doretta Cocks, protester of the Campaign for Weekly Waste Collections, said, "They must
think we are fools. How can they claim to be concerned for the environment when they tell people
to drive to the local tip? And what do you do if you don't have a car? Walk?"
     The plan ignores the voice from ministers to end such heavy-handedness (笨拙).
     It is to be carried out by the Tory-led council (市政廳) in Wokingham, Berkshire, and is
already in operation in Brozbourne in Hertfordshire.
     Many of the 180 councils that still offer unlimited weekly rubbish collections are watching the
trial.
    Wokingham officials have told residents that 75-litre bags will be given to each household and
anything not left in them will not be collected.
    "Every household will receive 80 bags every year," it said. "You can buy extra bags in rolls of
ten but this will not be encouraged."
    Families of five will get 100 rubbish bags a year and households of six or more will get 120.
    Residents will have a weekly recycling collection limited to cans, paper and cards, plastic bottles
and so on.
    Plastic packaging and glass including bottles must either go with the general waste or be taken to
recycling points. Green waste pick-ups cost an extra £60 a year.
    The council has told residents it will save £922,000 a year under the new system. There will be
no local consultation (商討) before it is introduced next April.
1. What'  Doretta Cock's attitude towards the new plan?
A. Satisfied.
B. Curious.
C. Angry.
D. Interested.
2. What does the underlined word "this" refer to in the seventh paragraph?

A. Receiving 80 rubbish bags every year.      
B. Buying extra bags every year.
C. Driving to city tips.                    
D. Getting 100 rubbish bags a year.

3. It can be learned from the passage that         .
A. the new plan is agreed by most ministers
B. the new plan will waste a lot of money
C. the government has asked for much advice of the new plan
D. the new plan does not necessarily do good to the environment
4. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
A. English families are limited to 80 bags of rubbish a year
B. English families can't clear away their rubbish
C. English families are angry with their government
D. English government pays no attention to residents' interest

    閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中,選出最佳選項,并在答題紙上將該項涂黑。

    Bill Javis took over our village’s news-agency at a time of life when most of us only wanted to relax. He just thought he would like something but not too much to do, and the news-a??gency was ready-made. The business produced little enough for him, but Bill was a man who only wanted the simplicity and order and regularity of the job. He had been a long-serving sailor, and all his life had done everything by the clock.

    Every day he opened his shop at 6:00 a. m. to catch the early trade; the papers arrived on his doorstep before that. Many of Bill’s customers were city workers, and the shop was convenient for the station. Business was tailing off by 10 o’clock, so at eleven sharp Bill closed for lunch. It was hard luck on anybody who wanted a paper or magazine in the after??noon, for most likely Bill would be down on the river bank, fishing, and his nearest competitor was five kilometers away. Sometimes in the afternoon, the evening paper landed on the doorway, and at 4 o’clock Bill reopened his shop. The evening rush lasted till seven, and it was worthwhile.

    He lived in a flat above the shop, alone. Except in the very bad weather, you always knew where to find him in the af??ternoon, as I have said. Once, on a sunny afternoon, I walked home along the river bank from a shopping trip to the village. By my watch it was three minutes past four, so I was aston??ished to see Bill sitting there on his little chair with a line in the water. He had no luck, I could see, but he was making no effort to move.

    “What’s wrong, Bill?” I called out from the path.

    For answer, he put a hand in his jacket and took out a big, golden object. For a moment I had no idea what it could be, and then it suddenly went off with a noise like a fire en??gine. Stopping the bell, Bill held the thing up and called back, “Ten to four, you see, and this is dead right.”

    I had never known anyone carrying a brass alarm clock round with him before.

    71. Bill Javis became a news-agent when _______.

    A. he needed the money      

    B. he was quite an old man

    C. he decided to take up fishing  

    D. he gave up clock-repairing

    72. Bill opened the shop so early in the day because _______.

    A. he liked to do as much as possible before he went to work

    B. the shop had to be open when the morning papers came

    C. he was never sure of time

    D. it was then that he did a lot of business

    73. From the information given in the passage, who or what do you think was wrong?

    A. The bell was-it must have gone off at the wrong time.

    B. Bill was-h(huán)e had dropped off to sleep.

    C. The writer’s watch was-it was fast.

    D. Bill’s clock was-it was old.

         A survey was conducted in Shanghai where interviewees were asked if they wanted to be a factory worker. One percent of all peo ple interviewed said: "YES," Wang Hongjun, a technician, said, rai sing his voice for
    impressive effect." But I can tell you, only a small part of that I percent are telling the truth."
         I've met colorful people like Wang all over China. They are cynical (玩世不恭的 ) yet warmhearted, plain
    spoken but smart. And many of them are confined (局限于) to work in factories.
         Wang is a top technician but also represents manual factory workers, who are China's most important
    natural resource. Their en- ergy is powering China's economic boom, and their muscle is turning the wheel of
    the world's factory.
         But does their unskilled labor give their life meaning? At school, did they tell their friends:" When I grow up
    I want to work in a factory making socks?" Did you?
         Factory work has always been a stepping-stone from farm life to the city and a modern life. It's been
    happening for centuries, but today, with our space-age technology, it's outdated. Earning 1,200 yuan,( $169)
    per month working in a factory is better than that on a farm, but as Wang points out, it's not a dream career.
    There should be better ways to earn your rice.
         Many modern factories no longer have production line workers. Robots do the assembly (裝配). People
    just do the monitoring. In this age of technology, in which China is now working smarter and not just harder,
    why are people still standing in production lines?
         But life is cheap in China. So why not continue to make use of the low-cost labor situation and keep the
    economy growing fast, some entrepreneurs may ask.
          But have these businessmen ever labored in a factory?
    1. How many people surveyed really like to be factory workers?
    A. One percent.
    B. Only a small part.
    C. Only a small part of that one percent.
    D. The writer didn't mention it.
    2. Which is NOT the writer's opinion of factory workers?
    A. Cynical.
    B. Unimportant.
    C. Warmhearted.
    D. Plain spoken.
    3. The writer uses _____ to begin the passage.
    A. a lot of figures
    B. many examples
    C. some dialogue
    D. the result of a survey
