2.Going green seems to be fad(時尚) for a lot of people these days.Whether that is good or bad,we can't really say,but for the two of us,going green is not a fad but a lifestyle.
    On April 22,2011,we decided to go green every day for a whole year.This meant doing 365 different green things,and it also meant challenging our selves to go green beyond easy things.Rather than recycle and reduce our energy,we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task.
    With the idea of going green every day for a year,Our Green Year started.My wife and I decided to educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment.We wanted others to know that every little bit helps.
    Over the course of Our Green Year,we completely changed our lifestyle.We now shop at organic(有機的) stores.We eat less meat and choose green food.We have greatly reduced our buying we don't need.We have given away half of what we owned through websites.Our home is kept clean by vinegar(醋) and lemon juice,with no chemical cleaners(化學清潔劑).We make our own butter,enjoying the smell of home-made fresh bread.In our home,anyone caught doing something ungreen might be punished.
    Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year.We are thankful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others.We believe that we do have the power to change things and help our planet.

10.On both sides of the River Thames in London,big crowds wait for the start of a rowing race.The sporting spotlight falls on two boats from the two top universities in Britain.
Eight male students from both Oxford and Cambridge battle(搏斗) it out for 6.8km on the river.The winners will bring back honor(榮耀) for themselves and their university.And although competitors must be amateurs (業(yè)余愛好者)and students,these top universities take the competition seriously.Their training timetable is strict:usually,they train for six days a week for six months before the race.
The rowing tradition has a long history.The first race was in 1829!Being two of the oldest universities in the world,Oxford and Cambridge share a strong competition both in academia(學術界) and sports.
There have been some interesting events over the centuries.In 1877,and the only time so far,both boats crossed the line at the exact same time.It's been the only draw (平局) in its history.In the 1912race,weather conditions were poor.Strong winds blew during the race,and surely enough,both boats sank!And in 2012,the race was stopped after a student entered the water and swam towards the boats.He was against public spending cuts (削減開支).And the recent race this year on April 11made history.It was the first time that the women's team raced at the same place and on the same day.
Though there's little difference between them,Cambridge is in the lead with 81 wins.

39.What can we tell from the story?D
A.Eighteen students from each university take part in the rowing race.
B.Teachers can also take part in the competition.
C.Students take part in the boat race just for fun.
D.Students train hard for the boat race.
40.What happened in the race of 1912?C
A.It was the first boat race competition.
B.The result was a draw.
C.Strong winds made both boats sink.
D.The race was stopped by a student.
41.What is the main idea of the story?A
A.The traditional boat race between Oxford and Cambridge.
B.The famous boat teams from Oxford and Cambridge universities.
C.Why the Oxford and Cambridge boat race is fun.
D.When to watch the Oxford and Cambridge boat race.

14.I had a very special teacher in high school many years ago.Her husband died of a heart attack.About a week after his death,she shared some of her insightswith us.
The class was nearly over.She said,"Before class is over,I would like to share with all of you an important thought."
"Each of us is put here on Earth to learn,share,love,appreciate and give of ourselves.We must make the most out of every single day."
Her eyes began to water and she went on,"So I would like you all to make me a promise.From now on,on your way to school,or on your way home,find something beautiful to notice.It doesn't have to be something you see-it could be a good smell or the sound of the gentle wind."
"Please look for these things,and cherish them.They are what is in life.We must pay attention to noticing them,for at any time it can all be taken away."
Every once in a while,I think of that teacher and try to appreciate all of those things that sometimes we don't notice.
Take notice of something special you see on your lunch hour today.Walk along the beach at sunset.For as we get older,it is not the things we did that we regret,but the things we didn't do.

11.Dear Santa,
Thank you for all of the great gifts you give me this Christmas.
My parents can't seem to decide whether you gave the presents directly,or if you just helped them and my grandma pick out the right presents.So,if you are advising her,please tell her next year that I do not own a Wii.
I don't remember asking you for so many pairs of pants,but thank you for giving me the chance to try them on in the front of my whole family.I enjoyed them so much that I continued to wear them,with the tags(商標)still on.
My mom and the holiday movies are always quick to remind me that Christmas isn't about the presents.It's about togetherness.But without the presents,there's nothing to do to fill up this long,long day.So I think Christmas is about the presents,and I'm sure you agree.
If you do,I have some suggestions about ways that you could make the present part of the day last longer:using packing tape to wrap presents instead of Scotch tape(透明膠帶).It took,like,ten minutes to open just one present.
My final suggestion is pretty simple:more presents!If it took the whole day to open all of the presents,then I wouldn't have that terrible time,because my mom says it's wrong to go play video games in my room,but there's nothing else to do outside of my room.
Anyway,thank you again and I look forward to seeing you next Thanksgiving.It's an iTunes gift card for you and hope you like it.
Merry Christmas!

34.What present does the writer want most?B
A.Many pants.
B.A Wii.
C.Christmas cards.
D.An iTunes gift card.
35.In the opinion of the writer,Christmas is a festival aboutC.
A.holiday movies
B.family togetherness    
C.gift  
D.playing video games
36.Why does the writer suggest using packing tape to wrap presents?A
A.Because packing tape can make presents hard to open.
B.Because packing tape can make presents more beautiful.
C.Because packing tape can make presents last long.
D.Because packing tape is cheap.
37.What always make the writer's mother angry with him on Christmas Day?D
A.His disliking to her Christmas.
B.His never saying thanks to the family.
C.His wrong suggestions about presents.
D.His staying in the room playing games.

12.If you go to a fast food restaurant,you will probably see a lot of teenagers(青少年).Today,many teenagers are overweight,and some of this is because of their bad eating habits.Most teenagers love food with a lot of fat,oil,salt,and sugar.People often call this kind of food"junk food".
But bad eating habits go beyondfast food.We find many teenagers eat unhealthily.Some don't have breakfast before they go to school.During the day,some don't have a proper meal for lunch.In a recent survey at one school,scientists found that over two thirds of the students didn't follow a healthy diet(飲食).They didn't like vegetables,and many of them didn't like to eat fruits.They preferred to eat food with a lot of salt,sugar,or fat.
Parents today also worry about their children's diet.Some doctors give the following advice:
★Teenagers shouldn't eat too much junk food.
★Teenagers shouldn't eat food with too much salt.Salt can cause high blood pressure(高血壓)in the future.
★Teenagers should eat food with less fat,oil,and sugar.
★Teenagers need to eat some fruits and vegetables every day.Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins(維生素)and have little fat.
★Teenagers need to drink more milk.Milk will help their bones grow.?
