Do’s and Don’ts of Donating

Giving up your unused or unwanted stuff is a great way to make space in your home for the items that you do enjoy on a regular basis. 【1】Here are 10 do's and don'ts of donating your belongings.

Do Prep Your Clothes

You've thoroughly cleaned out your closets and drawers, and have a mountain of clothing waiting to be donated．Before you bag up these pieces, inspect each one to ensure that they’re in good condition. Make sure all buttons are accounted for, and that you can't see any stains. 【2】

Don’t Donate Damaged Items

The number one rule of donating your stuff is to make sure that it' s in good, useable condition. Don’t pass along clothes or furniture with rips(裂口) or stains, chipped dishes, books that are missing pages, or games with lost pieces. 【3】Find a local company that will recycle these items instead.

Do Donate More Than Just Clothes

【4】 Stuffed animals, framed pictures, unused candles, small power tools, sports equipment, ornaments, baskets, blenders, dishes, glassware, utensils, silverware, pots and pans, curtains, blankets, toasters, mixers, pillows, towels, bed sheets, bikes, and exercise equipment are much sought after donations.

【5】

With a little common sense it's easy to figure out items that are ideal for donation．But unfortunately some people will throw away the contents of their home without a second thought. As a gentle reminder, it’s never a good idea to donate car parts, flammable products, construction materials, weapons, or explosives.

A．Nobody wants to inherit your damaged belongings.

B．Food donations are always in need.

C．Don’t Even Think of Donating These Items

D．Not sure where to start?

E．Don’t Donate Large Appliances

F．Clothes aren't the only household items that can be donated．

G．Wash the items to make them fresh and ready for their new owner.

【答案】

【1】D

【2】G

【3】A

【4】F

【5】C

【解析】本文為介紹說明文。文章介紹了人們在捐贈時應該注意的事項。

【1】根據第一段最后一句Here are 10 do's and don'ts of donating your belongings.可知，前后關系為問題與回答。故選D。

【2】本段的主旨是捐贈之前的準備工作，根據空前的Make sure all buttons are accounted for, and that you can't see any stains.可知，“要把捐贈的東西清洗干凈”符合語境。故選G。

【3】根據前一句Don’t pass along clothes or furniture with rips(裂口) or stains, chipped dishes, books that are missing pages, or games with lost pieces.可知，不要捐贈損壞、有殘缺的東西，沒有人想要這些東西。故選A。

【4】根據本段小標題Do Donate More Than Just Clothes及后面一句可知，捐贈的東西不僅僅可以是衣物。故選F。

【5】根據本段最后一句As a gentle reminder, it’s never a good idea to donate car parts, flammable products, construction materials, weapons, or explosives.（不要捐贈汽車配件、易燃品、武器和易爆品）可知，本段討論的是不宜捐贈的東西。故選C。

【題目】According to a team of researchers, an animals’ ability to perceive(感知)time is linked to their pace of life.

“Our results lend support to the importance of time perception in animals where the ability to perceive time in a very short time may be the difference between life and death for fast moving creatures.” commented lead author Kevin Healy from Trinity College Dublin.

The study was done with a variety of animals using a phenomenon based on the maximum speed of flashes of light an individual can see before the light source is seen as constant. Dogs, for example, have eyes with a refresh rate higher than humans.

One example of this phenomenon at work, the authors say, is the housefly and its ability to avoid being hit. The research showed flies “observe motion in a shorter time than our own eyes can achieve,” which allows them to avoid being hit.

Professor Graeme Ruxton of the University of St Andrews in Scotland, who worked jointly on the research project, said in a statement, “Having eyes that send updates to the brain at much higher frequencies than our eyes do is of no value if the brain cannot process that information equally quickly. Thus, this work highlights the impressive abilities of even the smallest animal brains. Flies might not be deep thinkers, but they can make good decisions very quickly. ”

In comparison, the tiger beetle (虎甲蟲）runs faster than its eyes can keep up, basically becoming blind, which requires it to stop periodically to re-evaluate its prey’s (獵物)position.

Our results suggest that time perception offers an as yet unstudied dimension along which animals can specialize and there is considerable range to study this system in more detail.

【1】What is the research mentioned in the passage mainly about?

A. Pace of life of animals. B. Time perception of animals.

C. Lifetime of small animals. D. Impressive abilities of animals.

【2】What does Kevin Healy’s comment mean in Para. 2?

A. The ability of animals to perceive time depends on their high moving speed.

B. The survival of fast moving animals relies on their ability to perceive time.

C. Animals with quicker pace of life have better perception of time.

D. Animals with poor ability of time perception have a shorter life.

【3】Why can houseflies avoid being hit?

A. They can think very deeply before they act.

B. They can fly much faster than their eyes can keep up.

C. They can process the information as quickly as they receive it.

D. They can send information to brain more quickly than to their eyes.

【4】What will a tiger beetle have to do to catch a moving prey?

A. Try to run as fast as it can.

B. Prevent itself from becoming blind.

C. Slow down to gain its time perception.

D. Stop occasionally to spot the prey again.

【題目】A trip to Paris is not complete without a visit to the Eiffel Tower. To get the most out of your visit, read our tips below:

Visit at Night

Riding up the Eiffel Tower at night and looking out over the streets of Paris, you’ll see why Paris is known as the “City of Light”. At street level, the spotlights on the top of the Tower zoom across t he Paris skyline, and the reflections of the Tower in the Seine are sights not to be missed.

Purchase Your Ticket in Advance Online

Bypass the long ticket lines at the Eiffel Tower by purchasing your ticket online from the Eiffel Tower website. You’ll pick a time to visit, and then select whether to print out the ticket or display it on your phone or iPad, which is a convenient option if you buy your ticket in Paris without easy access to a printer.

Don’t Bring Valuable Objects with You

Before entering the Eiffel Tower, your bags will be examined by a security officer. If an item you are carrying sets off the metal detector, the officer will take you away from the line for further inspection. We’ve stood in line for hours witnessing people who missed their chance to go up the Eiffel Tower.

Have Drinks and Snacks at the Eiffel Tower

If you’re like us, after an exciting trip to the Eiffel Tower, you’ll be ready to rest your legs and have a relaxing snack and a drink in a Parisian cafe. Across the Seine in the Trocadero area, there are many elegant cafes. The atmosphere is great, but the prices are in the stratosphere (最高水平). Actually, the perfect place for common visitors to eat and drink is on the Eiffel Tower itself.

【1】Why does the author suggest visiting the Tower at night?

A. Because you can stand on the top of the Tower.

B. Because you can avoid the crowds and enjoy it peacefully.

C. Because you can have a special sight of the city of Paris.

D. Because you can see the Seine as clearly as possible.

【2】What does the underlined word “Bypass” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Stand in. B. Avoid.

C. Control. D. Remember.

【3】Why did some people fail to go up the Eiffel Tower?

A. Because they didn’t seize the chance.

B. Because they lost valuable objects.

C. Because they set off the metal detector.

D. Because they had a quarrel with the officer.

Dear Jim,

So glad that you are interested in my new flat. Now I would like tell you something about it. Locating in the north of the city, this Residential Center is small with only six building. My flat, which covers the area of 36 square meters, is in the fourth floor in Building 2. It consisted of a sitting room, a bedroom, a kitchen and a toilet. When you enter into the flat, you will find yourself in the sitting room. The sitting room is the part that I like best, because it is brightly with a lovely balcony, which I can enjoy the beautiful garden below. Although my flat is small, I like them very much because it is comfortable.

Best regards,

【題目】The Marches were a happy family. Poverty, hard work, and even the fact that Father March was away with the Union armies could not down the spirits of Meg, Jo, Beth, Amy, and Marmee, as the March girls called their mother.

　　The March sisters tried to be good but had their share of faults. Pretty Meg was often displeased with the schoolchildren she taught; boyish Jo was easy to become angry; golden-haired schoolgirl Amy liked to show up; but Beth, who kept the house, was loving and gentle always.

　　The happy days passed and darkness came when a telegram arrived for Mrs. March. “Your husband is very ill,” it said, “come at once.” The girls tried to be brave when their mother left for the front. They waited and prayed. Little Beth got scarlet fever(猩紅熱)when she was taking care of a sick neighbor. She became very ill but began to recover by the time Marmee was back. When Father came home from the front and at that joyful Christmas dinner they were once more all together.

　　Three years later the March girls had grown into young womanhood. Meg became Mrs. Brooke, and after a few family troubles got used to her new state happily. Jo had found pleasure in her literary efforts. Amy had grown into a young lady with a talent for design and an even greater one for society. But Beth had never fully regained her health, and her family watched her with love and anxiety.

　　Amy was asked to go and stay in Europe with a relative of the Marches’. Jo went to New York and became successful in her writing and had the satisfaction of seeing her work published there. But at home the bitterest blow was yet to fall. Beth had known for some time that she couldn’t live much longer to be with her family, and in the springtime she died.

　　News came from Europe that Amy and Laurie, the grandson of a wealthy neighbor, had planned to be married soon. Now Jo became ever more successful in her writing and got married to Professor Bhaer, and soon afterwards founded a school for boys.

　　And so the little women had grown up and lived happily with their children, enjoying the harvest of love and goodness that they had devoted all their lives to.

【1】The members of the March family were Father March, Mrs. March and their ________．

A. five daughters B. four daughters

C. son and four daughters D. son and five daughters

【2】Who was the most successful in career(事業(yè))among the March girls?

A. Amy. B. Beth. C. Jo. D. Meg.

【3】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A. The March Family. B. The March Parents.

C. The March Girls. D. The March Relatives.

【4】It can be inferred from the passage that the March family had ________．

Every boy and every girl are eager for success. But what can we succeed in life? Here are my opinions:

First, we must be friendly and kindly. It allows us to make friends but survive wherever we are. Second, we must set a goal, which motivates us to pursue our dreams. Third, it’s better to believe in us. Only with self-confidence we realize our goals. Fourth, we should develop good characters, such as a strong will and diligence, because good qualities help us to hold on to our dreams since we get into the trouble.

As far as I’m concerning, success belongs to those who keep on trying. So let’s take actions now!
