2.Not long ago the movie 2012came into screen.The people were threatened by those scenes of destroying flood,severe earthquake,terrifying hurricane and constructions representing human civilization being destroyed and even swallowed by disaster.Luckily,they are just the director's imagination,but the present situation is not heading a positive direction,either.
Take my own experience in Alaska as an example.Once I took a trip to the glacier.Along the way there stood signposts marking the snow lines of different years.They started from the foot of the mountain,but it was at the top that I finally saw melting glaciers(融化的冰川).My heart ached seeing the beautiful blue ice melting at every second.
Sad but true,they are the effects of global warming and the result of our human impact.Furthermore,each year the rising sea level will kill 56million people,and that's about the population of the entire Italy.According to studies,if the temperature keeps on rising like this,by the year 2050,some islands and coastal cities including New York,Shanghai,Tokyo and Sydney will be drowned in water.
Our fortune is in our own hands.It depends on us to shape our future,to reduce future human impact and find ways to form a peaceful relationship with our environment.Therefore,it's time for actions to be taken right now.Contribute a little to energy saving by using more efficient light bulbs and less hot water.Let recycle become our habit by thinking twice before throwing something away.Let us take public transportation as our first choice when going to a certain place.It might cost more time for now,but it's to the benefit of a permanent future.Take care of every tree and grass around us by watering them or simply just avoid destroying them.
In a word,small drops of water make a big ocean. The earth does not belong to us.On the contrary,we belong to the earth. Please bear in mind that the earth is our home.It is our responsibility to build a brighter and better future of our planet and prevent what happened in the movie 2012from becoming reality.

56.Why does the author talk about the movie 2012in the passage?B.
A.To give example.      B.To lead into the topic.
C.To make prediction.   D.To provide the evidence.
57. How did the author feel when he took a trip to the glacier?A.
A. Worried.    B. Puzzled.     C. Scared.     D.Bored.
58.It can be inferred from the third paragraph thatC..
A.56million people in Italy have been killed owing to the rising sea level
B.Some islands and coastal cities will be drowned in water by the year of 2050
C.Human beings will be in danger if we don't take actions to prevent the global warming
D.It is certain that what happened in the movie 2012will come into reality
59. According to the passage,you are advised toD..
A.drive our own private cars instead of taking buses to some place
B.recycle everything that is used
C.go to see the movie 2012at once
D.work together to take good care of our planet
60.What does the author mean by saying"small drops of water make a big ocean"?C.
A.Think twice before taking action,
B.It's our duty to protect the ocean.
C.Everyone together can make a difference.
D.It's important to save every drop of water.

解答 56-60  BACDC
56.B 推理題.本文講述的中心話題就是人類對環(huán)境的影響,使用了電影《2012》作為導(dǎo)入,引起這個話題,故B正確.
57.A 推理題.根據(jù)第三段1,2行Sad but true,they are the effects of global warming and the result of our human impact說明作者很擔(dān)心也很難過.故A正確.
58.C 推斷題.根據(jù)第三段Furthermore,each year the rising sea level will kill 56 million people,and that's about the population of the entire Italy.According to studies,if the temperature keeps on rising like this,by the year 2050,some islands and coastal cities including New York,Shanghai,Tokyo and Sydney will be drowned in water說明如果我們還是這樣下去,人類的未來將非常危險.故C正確.
59.D 推理題.根據(jù)文章最后一段The earth does not belong to us.On the contrary,we belong to the earth.

20.At the risk of sounding lazy,I'll just be honest:I used to hate making my bed.Why should I bother?I'm just going to get right back into it later,and no one except my immediate family will see it.
But something I read last week in Charles Duhigg's"The Power of Habit"changed my mind.According to Duhigg,making your bed every morning is connected with better productivity and sticking to a budget.It has also been suggested that making your bed promotes happiness.My interest was attracted.
According to Duhigg,making your bed is something called a keystone habit.Changing or forming keystone habits helps you develop other good habits.
I figured that I was the perfect test case for the Make Your Bed to Achieve Happiness Theory and that it was worth a try.So far I've made my bed for 10days in a row.And here's what I've noticed:Making my bed inspires my children to make their beds,clean their rooms and do the laundry and the dishes.
Karen Miller,author of"Hand Wash Cold",explains:"The state of your bed is the state of your head."I think she is on to something.When I leave my bed in a heap (一堆),I leave the bedroom feeling defeated by my bed,my alarm clock,and my general sleepy mood.I'm reluctant to get the day started.
But when I look at my freshly made bed,I have to admit it:I smile a little.I feel just a bit more motivated.Productive,even.But sticking to a budget?That part is still up for debate.I just bought some beautiful pillows for my freshly made bed.I can't leave that beautiful bed half-dressed,can I?
28.The author decided to make her bedA.
A.under the influence of a book
B.to form some keystone habits
C.to create a good impression
D.a(chǎn)t the request of her family
29.After watching the author making her bed,the author's childrenC.
A.got up very early 
B.felt happier at home
C.began to share the housework 
D.loved her more than before
30.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word"reluctant"?B
A.curious.
B.unwilling.
C.lucky.
D.regretful.
31.How does the author feel about the habit of making her bed?D
A.It is a waste of time.
B.It helps save money.
C.It promotes communication.
D.It makes a difference in life.

13.Cosmo Books Ltd.,14,Woodman Road,
Hertford Estate,Two Bridges,
Rickmansworth,West Sussex.
Middx.
                                                     25th February
Sir,
Just over six months ago,I saw an advertisement in the Morning Mail for a set of the complete works of William Shakespeare.Your company,Cosmo books Ltd.,offered this set (eight books of plays and two books of poetry) at what was claimed to be a‘remarkable'price:fifteen pounds and fifty pence,including postage and packing.I had wanted a set of Shakespeare's plays and poems for some time,and these books,in red imitation leather,looked particularly attractive; so I sent for them.
Two weeks later,the books arrived,together with a set of the complete works of Charles Dickens which I had not ordered.So I returned the Dickens books to you,with a cheque for fifteen pounds and fifty pence for the works of Shakespeare.Two more weeks passed.Then there arrived on my door step a second set of the works of Shakespeare,the same set of novels by Dickens and a six book set of the plays of Moliere,in French.Since I do not read French,these were of no use to me at all.However,I could not afford to post all these books back to you,so I wrote to you at the end of August of last year,instructing you to come and collect all the books that I did not want,and asking you not to send any other books until further notice.
You did not reply to that letter.Instead you sent me a bill for forty two pounds,and a set of the plays of Schiller,in German.Since then,a new set of books has arrived every two weeks,the works of Goethe,the poems of Milton,the plays of Strindberg; I hardly know what I have.The books are still all in their boxes,in the garage,and my car has to stand in the rain outside.
I have no room for any more books,and even if I read from now until the Last Judgment,I should not finish reading all the books that you have sent me.
Please send no more books,send no more bills,send no more angry letters demanding payment.Just send one large lorry and take all the books away,leaving me only with the one set of the complete works of Shakespeare for which I have paid.
Yours faithfully,
SIMON WALKER
