①In today’s world many people seem to be hungry for money. Some of them even have lost their lives for it. Money does have a great effect on the poor, but if a person has a rich life, a lot more money doesn’t mean more happiness.
If money were everything, all millionaires would have true love, real friendship, health and a long life. However, this is not always true.
Nothing else is more pleasant than the three words “I love you”, but can love be bought? I’m afraid not . Love means “give”, not “take”. Health and a long life are precious things for every person. Well, can health and a long life be bought with money? The answer is “No”. Of all the people who live longest in the world, few of them are millionaires. Real friendship can’t be bought, either.
In a word, where money is worshiped, money can cause brothers to quarrel, lovers to hate, strangers to fight and so on, ②No matter how much money you have, it is still not enough to make you a happy person if you have no one to laugh with and no one to cry for.
閱讀上面短文，根據(jù)所給語境，按要求完成下列各題。（每空一詞）
小題1:根據(jù)①處完成下面的句子。（每空一詞）
It        that many people        hungry for money in today’s world.
小題2: 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，完成下面的句子。（每空一詞）
__________ love _______health can be bought with money.
小題3:將②處譯成中文.

小題1:seems  are
小題2:Neither, nor
小題3:無論你擁有多少金錢，如果你沒有一個可以與你一起哭和笑的人，你也不會是一個幸福的人。

試題分析：在當(dāng)今世界，許多人似乎渴望金錢。他們中的一些人甚至失去了生命。對于窮人，錢有很大的影響。但是，如果一個人有更多的錢，并不意味著有更多的幸福。無論你擁有多少金錢，如果你沒有一個可以與你一起哭和笑的人，你也不會是一個幸福的人。
小題1:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。問題：同義句填空。聯(lián)系原文：In today’s world many people seem to be hungry for money.句意：在當(dāng)今世界，許多人似乎渴望金錢。分析：運用句型：It seems that+從句。表示表面看起來。同時hungry是形容詞，主語為many people，因此Be動詞用are.故填：seems  are
小題2:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。問題：根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，完成下面的句子。聯(lián)系原文：If money were everything, all millionaires would have true love, real friendship, health and a long life. However, this is not always true.句意：如果金錢是萬能的，那么所有百萬富翁都會有真愛，會獲得真正的友誼，健康和長壽。然而，這并不總是真的。下一段更加具體的描述了，錢并不是萬能的。故填：Neither, nor
小題3:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。譯成中文。聯(lián)系原文 ：No matter how much money you have, it is still not enough to make you a happy person if you have no one to laugh with and no one to cry for.分析：No matter how表示無論什么,同義于however; enough to足夠去做什么；no one沒有一個人。故填：無論你擁有多少金錢，如果你沒有一個可以與你一起哭和笑的人，你也不會是一個幸福的人。

It is said that another acre of the world’s forest will be destroyed forever. Why is this happening? There are two reasons — land and wood. In many countries the trees have been cut down because the land was needed for animals or crops. In other parts of the world the trees are cut down because their wood is wanted. This wood is used by local people for firewood or it is used for building. But many people don’t know that in most places the trees won’t be replaced. The soil in the forests is very thin, but it is protected by the trees. When the trees are cut down, the soil is washed away by the rain or blown away by the wind. Soon nothing can be grown on it. The  forest becomes a desert. Then more land will be needed, and more trees will be cut down.
When the forest is destroyed, it isn’t only the trees that are lost — the homes of millions of animals and plants are destroyed, too. All kinds of animals are in danger — fish，reptiles, birds, mammals, insects, and shellfish — as well as thousands of plants.
Who is to blame for this? The answer is simple: all of us. There are just too many people in the world. The world’s population is now six billion. Of course, it’s very easy to blame the local people. We don’t cut down trees. They do. But the products are bought by people like you and me — wood houses, beds, tables, chairs, paper… Why are the forests being destroyed? Just look around. You are probably using it right now.
小題1:People cut down large areas of trees in order to _________.
A．grow cropsB．keep animalsC．build housesD．get land and wood
小題2: In most places, __________after trees are cut down.
A．new trees can grow betterB．forests will become deserts
C．most animals can live thereD．people build new house there
小題3: According to the passage, we should  _________________ to protect the forest.
A．use fewer wood productsB．plant more trees
C．blame the local peopleD．protect the soil

    Why do you think people who live in some hot countries eat very spicy(辛辣的)food? Is it because the spices make the food taste better? Is it just because their parents and grandparents and great-grandparents liked hot food，or is there some connection between spices and healthy food?
Researchers from Cornell University think that it is because spice plants have some important chemicals(化學(xué)物質(zhì))．These chemicals can kill bacteria(細(xì)菌)which spoil food．
“Most common spices can kill 75 to 100 percent of the bacteria in food，”explains one of the scientists．The bacteria grow more easily and spoil food more quickly at higher temperatures．For this reason，it is more difficult to keep food from spoiling in hot climates，
Do you like your food spicy? Your answer probably tells something about the country you come from．If you like spicy food，it is possible that hundreds of years ago，when there were no fridges，people in your country started using spices to keep the food from spoiling．The traditional spicy dishes helped those people to live longer，healthier lives．Today，in a time of fridges，the spices just make the food taste good．
小題1:The chemicals in spices keep food from spoiling by_________．
A．making food taste better
B．making food hotter
C．killing bacteria in food
D．preventing bacteria getting into food
小題2:Food goes bad more quickly in hot climates because_______．

The population of the Earth is growing faster. It is important that we look after the Earth. We need it! The Earth gives us a lot of things. We also give the Earth a lot, but some of the things are not good.

In nature, when something dies, other animals and plants get food from it. Every animal or plant gives food for other animals or plants. However, animals can’t get food from many of the things that we ‘give’ the Earth. Animals and plants can’t eat metal, plastic and glass. These things will stay in the ground for many, many years.

Some rubbish is very dangerous for plants and animals. In some places, many animals live together. One animal makes food for many more animals. If we put rubbish and chemicals in the water, the plankton(浮游生物) can die. If there isn’t any plankton, many animals have nothing to eat.
So what can we do? Don’t leave any rubbish in the countryside! Don’t make so much rubbish!
小題1:The Earth gives us ___________.
A．foodB．rubbishC．chemicalsD．pollution
小題2:When something dies in nature, _________.
A．water and grass are pollutedB．plastic and wood become food
C．other animals and plants get foodD．metal and glass stay in the ground
小題3:We must _______ to look after the Earth.

Researchers have found that there are some basic things that you can do to become happier.
◆Self
Yourself includes your education, your health, and your sense of purpose. It is important to take care of yourself and to connect the people around you. First, find a hobby. This gives you a chance to meet people with similar interests. You can also volunteer. Volunteering takes the focus off your own problems and makes you feel grateful for what you have.
◆Home
Create a quieter, dark area where you can sit and relax. Paint your living room yellow – it can increase energy and improve mood (情緒). It also helps to own a pet. Pets can make their owners feel calm, and provide love and friendship.
◆Financial (財務(wù)的) life
According to Ed Diener, the key to greater well-being is to have money, but not to want it too much. Try to spend money on things that give you long-lasting pleasure. Buy things that will enrich your life, such as music lessons and dinners with friends and family.
◆Social life
Have friends that encourage you to eat right, to be active, to laugh, and to do your best. Meet with your friends regularly and share with them when you have more of something than you need. Support each other in difficult times.
◆Workplace
Your office should be a place that you like. Find a job with people that you enjoy being around. That includes your boss. And do something that you feel strongly about. That is more important than money.
◆Community
If possible, live near people who have about the same amount of money as you. This makes you less aware (意識到的) of what you don’t have. Live in a neighborhood where you feel safe and where you can walk a lot. Walking makes you healthier, and healthier people are happier people.
小題1:What does yourself include according to the passage?
小題2:How can we increase our energy and improve mood?
小題3:What is the key to greater well-being, according to Ed Diener?
小題4:Why should we live near people as rich as ourselves?
小題5:What does the passage mainly talk about?

Eighth-grader Victoria Bills is talking about money with her classmates. She is worried that a company’s stock (股票) price could fall. It may be an unusual topic of conversation for a 13-year-old. But at Bills’ school in Chicago, US, you hear it all the time.
The Chicago school’s 420 students learn about economic(經(jīng)濟學(xué)). They also get a chance to make money. Each 1st grade and 5th grade, students learn the basics of economics and investing(投資).
Then in 6th grade, they put what they’ve learned to work. Students join a junior group that manages the $20,000. The group, made up of 12 to 14 students, decides which stocks to buy.
After graduating, students pass on $20,000 to the next 1st grade class. They keep half of the rest of the money; the other half goes toward improving the school. They can choose to put their money in a college-savings program or take the cash.
In 2007, Bills suggested that her class buy the stock of the Apple computer company. This was just before the iPhone came out. “We bought stock just at the right time,” she says. The kids bought Google stock as it reached $400 a share. It is now worth over $500. “It was a good buy,” says Myles Gate, 13. He hopes to be a banker one day.
