Some people go through life positively. 【1】 Luckily, you can learn to become positive. If you become more positive, things will become brighter day by day. It’s not because things are any better, but because how you look at them will change. Here are a few things positive people do differently.

They find something to look forward to every day. Whether it’s catching up on a favorite TV show, trying out a new dessert recipe, or having a phone conversation with a friend in another town, these things don’t have to be big. 【2】 .

【3】 Joy isn’t so hard to find. You can even find joy in the tiniest things — a funny text from a friend or a beautiful sunny day — because it adds up. Soon, you won’t have to stop and smell the roses because you’ll be smelling them all the time. So learn to enjoy the small things in your life.

They stay busy. Being busy doesn’t mean living under much stress. 【4】 It means having something to look forward to every day. Start a hobby. Fill your weekends with your hobby. Remember, living your life to the fullest is up to you.

【5】 When in doubt, choose kindness. Positive people look on the bright side, sure, but they also tend to pay it forward by passing on their positive energy to others. Giving is generous, but it also makes the giver feel even better. Now that’s a win-win. Be kind to others and others will treat you in span>the same way. And your days will be much better.

A. It means filling your life with good activities.

B. They celebrate small things.

C. They are kind.

D. They do something for fun.

E. Kindness is most important.

F. Having activities to expect will make you happy every day.

On holidays you’re likely to eat and overeat between family gatherings and office parties. 【1】 Here are some tips to help you enjoy holiday food without completely changing your diet:

1.Switch to small plates.

Not only do smaller dishes fill up faster,but the same size help look like more food when it’s on a small dish. 【2】 But whatever the size of your plate,it’s most important to remember to keep it balanced:half for vegetables,a quarter for grains and a quarter for lean meat.

2.Measure out snakes

Your favorite holiday movie is on.Take a minute to check the nutrition label(標(biāo)簽)and measure out a serving to keep calories in check.Take one popular brand of buttered microwave popcorn for example. 【3】 But the bag contains 2.5 servings.Eat the whole thing on your own,and you’ll have eaten 425 calories.

3.Split an entree(主菜).

Many restaurants serve far more food than one person needs in a single meal. 【4】 Or pack half your entree to go as soon as it’s served.Or choose a small-size option,if available.

4.Stop eating when you feel satisfied.

You don’t have to feel too full,or force yourself to clean your plate before putting down your fork. 【5】 When you’re satisfied,save the rest for leftovers.

A.Share a main dish with a friend.

C.Eat slowly and pay attention to feelings of hunger.

D.Studies show we tend to put on a few pounds this time of year.

【題目】閱讀理解。

Ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling.Recycling in the home is very important of course.However,being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need.We are dealing with the results of that overconsumption in the greenest way,but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.

The total amount of packaging increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005.It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the UK.In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.

Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment.The UK,for example,is running out of it for carrying this unnecessary waste.If such packaging is burnt,it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect.Recycling helps,but the process itself uses energy.The solution is not to produce such items in the first place.Food waste is a serious problem,too.Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need.However,a few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue and encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags.

But this is not just about supermarkets.It is about all of us.We have learned to associate packaging with quality.We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality.This is especially true of food.But it also applies to a wide range of consumer products,which often have far more packaging than necessary.

There are signs of hope.As more of us recycle,we are beginning to realize just how much unnecessary material we are collecting.We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture,but we have a mountain to climb.

【1】The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show .

A.the tendency of cutting household waste

B.the increase of packaging recycling

C.the rapid growth of supermarkets

D.the fact of packaging overuse

【2】According to the text,recycling .

A.helps control the greenhouse effect

B.means burning packaging for energy

C.is the solution to gas shortage

D.leads to a waste of land

【3】What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?

A.Unpackaged products are of bad quality.

B.Supermarkets care more about packaging.

C.It is improper to judge quality by packaging.

D.Other products are better packaged than food.

【4】What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A.Fighting wastefulness is difficult.

B.Needless material is mostly recycled.

C.People like collecting recyclable waste.

D.The author is proud of their consumer culture.

【題目】閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項。

If you go to Ethiopia,you’ll find a strange palm-like structure,which is called Warka Water.It gathers water from fog and condensation(水珠)and is invented by an Italian firm.

When Italian designer Arturo Vittori and Swiss architect Andreas Vogler first visited Ethiopia in 2012,they were shocked to see women and children forced to walk miles to access what,for them,had always been within easy reach,water.

Only 34 percent of Ethiopians have access to a reliable water supply.Some travel for up to six hours a day to fetch some or,even worse,have to use pond water polluted by human waste,subject to the spread of disease.

Worldwide,about 768 million people—two and a half times the U.S.population—don’t have access to safe drinking water.So just imagine if we could just pull water out of thin air?That’s what Vittori and Vogler asked once they saw the severe problem and promised to take action.Their firm,Architecture and Vision,has since come up with Warka Water,a grand palm-like structure that may look like something you’d see in a modern art museum,but it’s been designed to harvest water from the air.

Warka Water,which is named after an Ethiopian fig tree,is composed of a 30-foot bamboo frame containing a fog-harvesting nylon net that can catch water easily,can be easily lowered for repairs and allow communities to measure the water level.Collecting water through condensation is hardly a new technique,but the creators of Warka Water say their tree-inspired design is more effective,maximizing surface and perfecting every angle to produce up to 26 gallons of drinkable water a day—enough for a family of seven.

Western organizations have been working to provide clean water access in Africa for decades,so Warka Water joins a very long list of earlier attempts.So far,high-tech solutions,like the once promising Playpump,have failed,mostly due to high costs and maintenance issues.

This is where Warka Water stands apart—a lower-tech solution that is easy to repair and far more affordable than digging wells in the rocky Ethiopian plateau.

【1】What does the underlined phrase “subject to” in the third paragraph most probably mean?

A.owing to B.opposite to

C.sensitive to D.giving rise to

【2】Warka Water is designed mainly to .

A.gather clean water efficiently

B.reduce water supply costs

C.simplify maintenance

D.preserve water supplies

【3】According to the sixth paragraph,what caused Playpump to fail?

A.Lack of advanced technology

B.Unsuccessful designs

C.Lack of money and maintenance issues

D.Unreasonable structures

【題目】The Taj Mahal (泰姬陵) is a love story, a sad and beautiful one. If it didn’t exist, we would easily imagine that the story of its construction was simply a fairy tale. Three hundred years ago, there lived an Indian emperor called Shah Jahan. His wife was a beautiful and bright woman whom he loved greatly. Her title was Mumtazl Mahan: its shortened form Taj Mahal, means “pride of the palace”. In the year 1630 this beloved wife of the emperor died. He was so brokenhearted that he thought of giving up his throne(皇位). Out of his love for his wife, he decided to build her the most beautiful tomb that had ever been seen.

He summoned（召集）the best artists and architects from India, Turkey, Persia and Arabia and finally, the design was complete. It took more than twenty thousand men working over a period of 18 years to build the Taj Mahal, one of the most beautiful buildings in the world.

The building itself stands on a marble platform 29 meters square and 6-7 meters high. Towers rise from each of the four corners. The Taj itself soars another 61 meters into the air. It is an eight-sided building made of white marble.

The emperor planned to build an identical tomb of black marble for himself on the other side of the river connected by a silver bridge. However his son put him into a prison in the palace before he could finish, and for the rest of his life, he could only gaze across river at the tomb of his beloved wife.

A. a beautiful fairy tale

B. the story of the Taj Mahal

【題目】There is growing concern about food insecurity in the developing world. Rising food prices, weather emergencies and political problems are deepening the struggle for families in many countries.

Three UN agencies have published a report recently, saying high prices are likely to continue. Gregory Barrow, who is with the World Food Program in Rome, says, “If you look at the places where the World Food Program works, particularly in developing countries, you see people who might be spending more than 60 percent of their salary in purchasing food for their families.”

East Africa is suffering its worst drought in years. In Kenya, at least three and a half million people are going hungry, mostly in the north. Yet food is going to waste in central Kenya. Now, farmers there want the government to buy their food and give it to those in need. Farmers say bad roads and lack of transportation make it difficult for them to get their produce to the market.

Mr. Barrow says, “It needs the government to make some arrangements such as providing transport. They can buy it at a good price, then give it to those people instead of asking for food from overseas, which is very bad. When we are throwing away food, they are asking for food from overseas.”

Economists say that imports reduce local food prices, decrease productivity(生產(chǎn)效率) and increase the dependency on other countries. Farmers in Kenya hope the government can pay higher prices for their crops so that they can feed more Kenyans.

【1】What is the best title for this passage?

A. Kenya Imports Food from Abroad

B. World Food Program in Rome.

C. The Poor Suffer from High Food Prices.

D. A Report Published by Three UN Agencies.

【2】What do we know about Kenya from the passage?

A. The people in central Kenya are suffering from hunger.

B. At least three and a half million Kenyans lack food.

C. The Kenyan government wants to improve road conditions.

D. People in northern Kenya refuse to ask for food from overseas.

【3】What does “they” in the fourth paragraph refer to?

A. The people of northern Kenya.

B. Government officials.

C. The farmers of central Kenya.

D. Kenyan economists.

【4】Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to this passage?

A. Gregory Barrow suggests that Kenya make good use of overseas food.

B. People in northern Kenya are suffering the drought less than the central.

C. Economists believe importing food from abroad may cause problems.

D. Kenyan government hopes to buy the native crops at higher prices.
