Fifteen years spent in the field of education has provided me with many treasured moments. One of the most unforgettable  26  when I was teaching second  27   10 years ago.

In May I decided to plan something special for the children：a Mother’s Day tea. We had put our heads together to   28   ideas of how to    29   our mothers. We practiced singing songs, memorized poems and wrote cards. We decided to hold our tea the Friday before Mother’s Day. I was surprised but   30   to learn that every mother was planning to attend. I   31   invited my own mother.

Finally, the big day arrived. Each child   32   up at our classroom door, expecting the arrival of his or her mom.   33  it got closer to starting time, I looked around and my eyes quickly found Jimmy. His mother hadn’t shown up and he was looking   34  

I took my mother by the hand and walked over to Jimmy. “Jimmy,” I said, “I have a bit of problem here and I was   35   if you could keep my mother  36   while I’m busy.”

My mom and Jimmy sat at a table. Jimmy   37  my mom her treats, presented her with the gift I had made, just as we had   38   the day before. Whenever I looked over, my mother and Jimmy were in deep   39  .

Now 10 years later, I work with students of all ages, educating them about the environment. Last year, I took a senior class on a field trip, and there was Jimmy. I had the students complete an outline of the day’s   40   and an evaluation of our trip. Then I collected the students’ booklets and checked them to see if  41    was completed. When I came   42   Jimmy’s page, he had written “Remember our Mother’s Day tea we had in second grade, Mrs. Marra? I do! Thanks for all you did for me, and thank your mother, too.”

I told him I really enjoyed what he had written. He looked rather embarrassed and   43   his own thanks and walked away. Suddenly he ran back and gave me a big hug. “Thanks again. No one even knew my mother didn’t   44    it.”

I ended my workday with a hug from a teenage boy who had   45   stopped hugging teachers years ago.

Solar energy for your home is coming. It can help you as a single home owner. It can help the whole country as well. Whether or not solar energy can save your money depends on many things. Where you live is one factor. The type of home you have is another. Things like insulation(絕緣) present energy costs and the type of system you buy are added factors.

Using solar energy can help save our precious fuel. As you know, our supplies of oil and gas are very limited. There is just not enough on hand to meet all our future energy needs. And when Mother Nature says that’s all, the only way we can delay hearing those words is by starting to save energy now and by using other sources, like the sun.

We won’t have to worry about the sun’s running out of energy for another several billion years or so. Besides begin an endless source of energy, the use of the sun has other advantages as well. The sun doesn’t offer as many problems as other energy sources. For example, fossil fuel plants add to already high pollution levels. With sola energy, we will still need sources of energy, but we won’t need as much. That means we can cut down on our pollution problems.

With all these good points, why don’t we use more solar power? There are many reasons for this. The biggest reason is money. Until now, it was just not practical for a home owner to put in a solar unit. There were cheaper sources of energy. All this is changing now. Solar costs are starting to equal the costs of oil and electricity. Experts say that gas, oil and electricity prices will continue to rise. The demand for electricity is increasing rapidly. But new power plants will use more gas, oil or coal. Already in some places the supply of electricity is being rationed. Solar energy is now in its infancy. It could soon grow to become a major part of our nation’s energy supply.

57. Which statement best expresses the main idea?

A. Something about Solar Energy and Pollution.        B. Solar Energy.

C. Energy and Pollution                                           D. Energy and Money

58. Solar energy can help us save ____.

A. the earth and nature resources                                   B. mother nature

C. the sun                                                                     D. our precious fuel

59. Which of the following statements is correct?

A. Energy from coal would not pollute our living environment.

B. Energy from natural gas would not pollute our living environment.

C. Energy from the sun would not pollute our living environment.

D. Energy from oil would not pollute our living environment.

60. Solar energy is in its infancy, ____.

A. but it will be considered as an important part of our nation’s energy supply

B. yet we will build more power plants

C. and the supply of electricity will be rationed

D. but we don’t need practice energy rationing now

Only through ____talks can we build trust and only through cooperation can create ____ win-win economic situation.

A. \ ; a                B. the ; the           C. \ ; the              D. the ;a
