10.Want to save the environment?You probably can't fix everything on your own,but by taking small steps and keeping the environment in mind every day,you can make a difference,
1.Think Green.Challenge yourself to think about the environment as you live your life.If you shut off lights when you leave the room,turn off your TV when you're not watching it,you'll save energy.If you take shorter showers,you'll save water.
2.Shop Green.Shopping is fun,but buying things you don't need is wasteful and bad for the earth.Before you buy something,ask yourself how much you'll really use it.Keep yourself away from buying products with unnecessary packaging (包裝),and whenever possible,buy things that were locally made instead of those shipped from far away.
3.Dress Green.Wear green trousers and T-shirts if you want.But what really matters isn't the colour,it's how the clothes were made.If you want to help the environment,the best place to find clothes is at a vintage store,but you might not want to buy everything used.No matter where you shop,keep an eye out for products made from environmentally friendly materials like organic(有機的) cotton,which is grown without the use of pesticides ( 殺蟲劑).
4.Study Green.What's better than learning about the environment?Save it while you learn,It can be as simple as using both sides of a piece of paper before you recycle it,or reusing an old textbook:instead of buying a new one.If you want to do more,join an environmental group at your school,and encourage your friends to join,too.

54.The underlined phrase"a vintage store"in this passage refers to (是指) a place where you can buyC.
A.cheap clothes                         B.fashionable clothes
C.second-hand clothes                   D.clothes of special size
55.Which of the following acts does not agree with the writer's green ideas?B
A.Taking shorter showers.
B.Buying products with unnecessary packaging.
C.Wearing clothes made from organic materials.
D.Using both sides of a piece of paw.
56. What does the passage mainly talk about?D
A.Some Methods to Live Happily.
B.Some Advice to Save Money in Daily Life.
C.Some Steps to Live a Healthy Life.
D.Some Ways to Make One's Life Green.

7.Do you know how important it is to have breakfast?A study of 2,000 teenagers in the US showed that eating breakfast daily is helpful to young people.
    According to the study,teenagers who eat breakfast weigh around 5 pounds less than teenagers who do not.Although they take in more calories (卡路里) in the morning,they are more active during the day because they have more energy.This means they burn more calories than non-breakfast eaters.The breakfast does not even have to be very healthy,as eating anything is better than nothing.
    The study also showed that eating breakfast keeps teenagers feeling full for longer,so they will not eat too many snacks (零食) later in the day.This is goo d news as most popular snacks,like sweets and potato chip s,are usually unhealthy and full of calories.
    Another big advantage of eating breakfast is that it helps teenagers do better at school.This is because it gives them more energy to keep their attention in class.
    What's more,a study in the UK showed that adults (成年人) who eat breakfast daily put on less weight and also perform better at work.
    Whatever your age is,take time to have breakfast every day.

A.teenagers should eat something for breakfast

15.We need to be responsible for our environment.Being a frugal consumer(節(jié)儉的消費者) is one way to help.Bet,what exactly does that mean?
Use It Up
You can use things up instead of wasting them.Squeeze that last bit of toothpaste out of the tube.Use the last title piece of soap.Don't throw away any bits of the biscuit at the bottom of the box.
Wear It Out
You do not always need to have new things.Suppose your sneakers have broken laces,but they still fit you.Repair them and wear them longer.You don't have to have the latest iPhone until the old one doesn't work any more.They you can get a new one.Think twice before replacing something that still work.
Make It Do
When something you want is not on hand,look for something else that you already have to take its place.Suppose you are packing your lunch for tomorrow and want a butter sandwich.You are out of butter.Have a cheese sandwich instead so you can use all of the cheese.Learn to fix broken toys instead of just throwing them away.With a little thought,you can make something do,instead of buying something new.
Do Without
Think about all those things that you would like to have.Do you really need them?How long will you really play with that new toy you saw on TV?Making the things that we want uses up our world's resources (資源).And,getting rid of the things we don't want any more takes up even more resources and space.
65.Do we need to be responsible for our environment?Yes,we do.
66.How do we deal with the last little piece of soap?Use it up.
67.When do we need to get a new iphone?Until the old one doesn't work any more.
68.What should we do when something we want is not on hand?Look for something else.
69.What does the writer want to tell us?How to be a responsible and frugal consumer..

2.For better eyesight(視力),doctors advise limiting(限制) the hours of screen time and encourage having enough eye resting time.
However,another study shows that sitting in front of computer or TV screens for long hours is not the only reason for myopia(近視).An Australian research team studied young children in Sydney and Singapore to find the reasons for myopia.The research team found that there were less children who had myopia in Sydney than those in Singapore,even though they spent more time in front of computer and TV screens.The major finding is that children in Sydney spend longer hours on outdoor sports than those in Singapore.
Indoor and outdoor sports both make the eyes pay attention to more distant(遠處的) objects,which stops the eyes from changing original shape.But outdoor sports may be better than indoor sports for myopia.Because natural light is good for eye growth and vitamin(維他命) D from the sunlight might be useful to it.Many doctors suggest that every child get its first eye test when he/she is about two and half years old,and even if his/her sight seems good enough.It is necessary for myopic(近視的) children to wear glasses to stop headaches,trouble reading and so on.It is also important that schools invite doctors to test their students'eyes.
If that is not possible,school teachers should at least encourage parents and children to have regular eye examination and wear glasses.And parents should remember not only to limit the total screen time for their children,but also to encourage them to spend time outdoors.

71.What did the Australian research team study for?A.
A.To find the reasons for myopia.
B.To find the ways to treat myopia.
C.To learn to choose right glasses.
D.To improve children's eyesight.
72.Why are there fewer children with myopia in Sydney than those in Singapore?D.
A.Because the children in Sydney watch TV less.
B.Because the children in Sydney have more eye resting time.
C.Because the children in Sydney use computer less.
D.Because the children in Sydney do more outdoor sports.
73.What is good for eye growth according to the passage?C.
A.Natural light.B.Vitamin D.
C.Natural light and Vitamin D.D.The sun.
74.Which of the following is true?B.
A.Children should have eye tests as soon as they reach school age.
B.Looking more at distant objects can help the eyes keep their original shape.
C.Doing outdoor sports with no glasses is good for myopic children.
D.Children should limit their time in the sun to protect their eyes.
75.The passage mainly tells usC.
A.the children in Sydney spend more time in front of screens
B.the children in Singapore like outdoor sports
C.doing outdoor sports and limiting the hours of screen time are good for eyes
D.it's important to test students'eyes.

From 8:30pm to 9:30pm on Saturday,March 26th,2011,a great number of people around the world turned off the lights for Earth Hour.It is a bit like an environmental New Year,providing a chance to help care for our earth and make people around the world learn how important it is to do that.
What can do during this hour?We can do lots of run things in the dark,such as planning a candlelight dinner for our family or a group of friends,telling stories and singing songs with the kids and neighbors.
What did you do for Earth Hour this year?Let's share the Earth Hour stories.
 Emma
I was on one of the mountains near the city and took photos of my city.It was great to watch the stars and the moon after a busy day so that I could enjoy this relaxing moment.
 Albert
I work as a waiter in a restaurant.Our restaurant was still open even for Earth Hour as we got lots of reservations (預(yù)定) that night.So we spent the hour working by candlelight.And guess what?Our customers loved that and promised to come for next Earth Hour.
 Brandon
I turned off the main power to my house and went for a walk for Earth Hour.It was a little strange to walk in the dark,but it was only for one hour.Just think of what it must have been like before the invention of the light bulb!
 Mary

I invited my friends who know and support Earth Hour activities.We actually had a candlelight concert and we talked about the old happy days that we spent together in college.
