2．I'm part of the Roots & Shoots program founded by Dr．Jane Goodall．The program is intended to make and promote positive changes in the world．As Dr．Goodall says，"What you do makes a difference，and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make．"
In Bulgaria，where I live，homeless dogs are everywhere．Many people here turn a blind eye to them．But I cannot ignore the life of a street dog whenever I see one wandering in the street，looking for something to eat．That's why I'm no longer a food waster．When I see wasted food，I always think of a hungry dog climbing to garbage bins，searching for food that people have thrown there．When eating in a restaurant，I'm not afraid to take leftover food to feed stray cats or dogs．
A week ago，I saw a homeless dog around the garbage bins．Immediately I knelt down，spoke to her softly and ran my hands over her．I could see that she had had puppies．I couldn't imagine how she could have been able to care for them．Hours earlier，I'd bagged up a plate of leftover fish．As I unwrapped it，she wagged her tail and sniffed at it．She ate all the fish in no time．
It's sad，isn't it？I can't understand why many of us waste so much and think little of it．These homeless animals have taught me that food is precious．Even when I don't have leftovers with me，I'll take the time to get something from the grocery store to feed them．
I know my power is small，so I hope that next time you see wasted food，do turn it into worthy food．You have the power to save a life!

25．The author uses what Dr．Goodall says to showD．
A．how we can develop our business
B．why it is important to be great

10．請閱讀下面短文，并按要求以O(shè)ur Life Rests on Our Choice為題，用英語寫一篇150詞左右的文章．
Life is a matter of choice．Seemingly，it means a choice of concrete （具體的）things．But in fact，it means choosing a way of life．Life is to be lived and enjoyed，not to be wasted or complained about．
Hardly can we forget the time when our society faced the threat from the life-and death disease---SARS．Yet，even during those dreadful times，some suffering people remained optimistic．Instead of wearing white masks，some people turned to colorful ones，and thus displayed a happy mood．And some creative people dubbed SARS to mean"SMILE AND REMAIN SMILING．"People who survive these kinds of circumstances decide in their minds to carry on in spite of the hardships．
Although we cannot choose our appearance，inborn gifts and even avoid unexpected disasters and adversities （逆境），we do have the right to choose to live optimistically，to love our lives，to have dreams，and to cherish hopes．
Every morning when we get up，we have a choice of how we want to approach life that day．
【寫作內(nèi)容】
1．用約30個單詞寫出上文的概要；
2．用約120個詞就"Our Life Rests on Our Choice"談?wù)勀愕目捶ê透惺�，�?nèi)容包括：
（1）簡要敘述你對"Our Life Rests on Our Choice"的理解；
（2）請舉例說明你會選擇怎樣的人生態(tài)度；
（3）簡要敘述你這樣選擇的理由．（至少2點）
【寫作要求】
1．闡述觀點或提供論據(jù)時，不能直接飲用原文語句；

【評分標(biāo)準(zhǔn)】
內(nèi)容完整，語言規(guī)范，語篇連貫，詞數(shù)適當(dāng)．
Our Life Rests on Our Choice
Faced with disasters and adversities，some people choose to stay optimistic and determine to carry on regardless of the hardships．Life，to some extent，rests on our choice．
Life is full of ups and downs．When the time comes for us to make choices，we should be aware of the importance of a positive attitude．A positive attitude somehow resembles the sail of a ship，which offers us the right direction（高分句型一）．
As a teenager，it is of great significance to take a positive attitude towards life．To stay energetic，I will stick to an exercise schedule．I will also keep myself informed of the current events and communicate more with others，becoming socially connected．
All these mentioned above will be beneficial for me to grow into an optimistic and confident young man．Only by doing so can I adjust myself to society more easily and stay motivated towards a better life（高分句型二）．（150 words）．

7．Toddler World Nursery was delighted to employ a trainee-twenty-two-year-old Jonathan Brown-as their first male nursery schoolteacher．He was also the only man who applied for the job，but，insists Margery Bowman，head teacher of Toddler World，by far the best applicant．"Both boys and girls will benefit from the experience of having a male role in the nursery．"Says mother of two，Margery．

14．Every generation of teenagers is expert at finding new ways of driving their parents mad．When I was young it was a simple matter of under-age drinking，unsuitable boyfriends or long conversations on the telephone，which could be easily seen by the entire family．
These days the technology of parent-crazing is absolutely more complicated．Today's teenagers conduct their rebellions（叛逆）online，watching YouTube clips，posting private images on their Facebook pages and seeking friends with strange hobbies，which are enough to freeze their parents'blood．
Danah Boyd，a Harvard academic，spent seven years being absorbed in teenage culture，attempting to explain young people to the adults who worry about them．Boyd interviewed 166adolescents about their online lives，hung out with teens in public places and spent countless hours observing teens．From these interviews，she intended to explain the aspects of teenaged online behavior that adults find most unacceptable．
Teenagers are normally considered by the society as"public threats or targets easily harmed"．However，the youths interviewed by Boyd argued that they would prefer to interact directly，but that their parents'concern for their safety and the loss of public spaces limited them to the home．The Internet has become their alternative meeting place．
Many writers couldn't resist reading Boyd's findings．Boyd's analysis of teenage life is realistic and profound．After reading much of what she discovers，most parents can give a sigh of relief．The kids are all right，but they want to be understood．They are not so different from their parents after all．

28．Why does the author write the first two paragraphs？D
A．To express the public's concern about the Internet．
B．To explain how complicated the society has become．
C．To warn us of the danger the Internet brings to people．
D．To show today's teenage rebellions are different from the past．
29．What's the author's attitude to Boyd's research？A
A．Favorable．
B．Doubtful．
C．Indifferent．
D．Critical．
30．What can we learn according to Danah Boyd？B
A．young people have lost interest in public spaces．
B．parents are partly responsible for teenaged online behavior．
C．surfing the Internet at home should be limited most of the time．
D．a(chǎn)ll the children are actually free from the bad effect of the Internet．
31．What's the purpose of the author's writing the passage？B
A．To discuss how modern technology influences teenagers．
B．To introduce Danah Boyd's research on networked teenagers．
C．To analyze the reasons why teens are lost in the Internet．
D．To criticize those parents who misunderstand their children．

11．Canadian short story writer Alice Munro won the Nobel Prize for Literature．Eighty-two-year-old Munro is only the 13th woman to win the 112-year-old prize．
Munro didn't publish her first collection of short stories until she was 37years old，but her stories have always been well-received．Lots of her stories share similar themes and characters，but each story has its own twists and turns．
Even though she's won Canada's most famous literary award，the Giller Prize，twice，winning the Nobel Prize for Literature is the cherry on top of Munro's career．"It brings this incredible recognition，both of her and her career，and of the dedication to the short story，"said one person．
Along with the well-respected title comes 1.3million dollars．Munro said everything was"so surprising and wonderful"and that she was"dazed by all the attention and affection that has been coming my way．"
Munro knew she was in the running-she was named the second-most likely person to win this year's prize，after Haruki Murakami（村上春樹）of Japan-but she never thought that she would win．
Munro's win also represents the long way Canadian writers have come．"When I began writing there was a very small community of Canadian writers and little attention was paid by the world．Now Canadian writers are read，admired and respected around the globe，"Munro said on Thursday．
She is technically not the first Canadian to win the Nobel Prize for Literature，but many like to think that she is．In 1976Saul Bellow，who was born in Quebec but moved to Chicago when he was still a child，won the prize．Even though he was born in Canada，he is mostly considered to be an American writer．
"This is a win for us all．Canadians，by our very nature，are not very nationalistic，"said Geoffrey Taylor．"But things like this suddenly make you want to find a flag．"
She wasn't sure whether she would keep writing if she won the prize，saying that it would be"nice to go out with a bang．But this may change my mind．"
32．What is the feature of Munro's stories？C
A．They have specific themes for children．
B．They have similar story backgrounds．
C．They have their own complicated contents．
D．They have the same characters in each book．
33．For Munro，the Nobel Prize for Literature is an award forB．
A．her love for Canadian culture           B．her devotion to the short story
C．her special form of writing              D．her career of editing short stories
34．What is implied in the sixth paragraph？A
A．Canadian writers have long been ignored．
B．Canadian writers are just a small community．
