【題目】 In the 13th century, Marco Polo, the world known Italian traveller, saw many wonderful things in China. One of the things he discovered was money made of paper. People in the West did not have such kind of money until the 15th century. 【1】
Paper was invented by a Chinese man called Cai Lun almost 2,000 years ago. But it was not made in Europe until the year 1100. Four hundred years later, a German discovered that he could make the best paper from trees. 【2】
Paper can be used in many ways. The common uses include newspapers, magazines and books. But do you know that paper can be used for keeping warm? In Finland, the farmers wear paper boots to keep their feet warm in the snow. And even houses can be insulated (使絕緣的) from heat or cold with paper.
However, we have to understand that paper still comes from trees now. 【3】 Every day people throw away about 2,800 tons of paper in our city. It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper. This means that we are cutting down nearly 48,000 trees every day. The fact is that it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow.
【4】 We can use both sides of every piece of paper. We can make useful things out of used paper. We can use china cups instead of paper ones. When shopping, we can use fewer paper bags and reuse them if we have some.
In short, we should keep a balance (平衡) between using paper and protecting trees, and do it now before it is too late.
A.So we must start saving paper right now.
B.If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth some day in the near future.
C.However, the Chinese began to use it in the 7th century.
D.So it is the right time to stop making paper from trees.
E.After that, countries rich in forests, such as Canada, Sweden, America, Finland became the most important ones in paper making.

【題目】 It's dangerous to laugh when you are chewing gum (嚼口香糖) . You may choke (噎住) on the gum. This happened to Allyson Golden, a 12-year-old girl from the US. However, she was lucky because her friend Miriam Starobin saved her with something she learned from the cartoon Sponge Bob Squarepants (《海綿寶寶》).
The two girls were in music class. Their teacher said something funny and the students began to laugh hard. Suddenly, Golden choked as the gum got stuck in her throat.
Golden said it was the most terrible moment of her life. “Suddenly I couldn't laugh anymore. I couldn't breathe,” she said.
When Starobin saw Golden's face turn purple, she thought back to Sponge Bob. In one episode (集) of the show, Sponge Bob uses the Heimlich maneuver (海姆利克氏操作法) . In this maneuver, you push on the area below a person's chest (胸腔) to force air up his or her throat and stop them from choking. Starobin pulled Golden off the ground and did the Heimlich three or four times until the gum flew out from her mouth.
When she realized what her friend had done, Golden gave Starobin a big hug and said, “You just saved my life. I owe you big time.”
Their head teacher, Audrey Goropeuschek, is proud of her student. She said Starobin is a hero.
However, Starobin didn't think that she was a hero. “Heroes are people who even give their lives to save others,”she said. “I just did something that anyone could if they tried. ”

【題目】 Bikesharing is new for short journeys in cities. It is a good choice for the big cities to develop healthily.
A report found that shared bikes started the nation's love for bikes again. The love is not only among young people born in the 1980s and 2000s, but also among people over sixty. Now they are choosing bikes instead of cars to make short journeys in cities. If you have a smart phone, the nearest bike equipped with GPS will be easily found through a certain app on your phone. It can also be unlocked through the app and left anywhere in public for the next user. The cost of riding depends on the time that you spend. Normally, every hour you ride, you just need to pay one yuan.
It is said that bikesharing will help improve the cities' environment. It not only helps solve the traffic problems, but also will help to make more use of space in cities. Take Beijing as an example. If more people choose shared bikes, an area of five Bird's Nest Stadiums (體育場)will be saved.
At the same time, there are some problems with shared bikes that people need to solve properly. For example, some people park the bikes in their home; some break up the bikes on purpose; and others even throw them into the river. Facing all these problems, everyone should raise their own awareness of protecting the bikes. We should not only enjoy them, but also value them and put them to good use.
Judge the following statements True (T) or False (F)
【1】Old people love shared bikes besides the young.
【2】GPS are shared bikes equipped with.
【3】One dallar does a one﹣hour riding on shared bikes cost.
【4】You can leave share bikes in your home.
【5】Bikesharing will help improve the cities' environment.
