When I was young, my father used to grow carnations — a kind of flower that was red, pink or white. He took care of them with much love and devotion. Every day he came home from work, he would enjoy watching them. And he used to tell us, ―No one should touch my flowers.‖
One day, my younger sister Clemence, who loved dad very much, wanted to help him. So she cut the carnation from their stems（枝干）one by one and arranged them on the ground. She believed that dad would be very pleased to see them that way.
When mom and I realized what my sister had done, we became completely speechless. However, my sister had no idea why no one showed her any appreciation. When dad arrived, he went as usual straight to watch the flowers. Seeing his flowers lying on the ground like dead animals, he was shocked at first. He looked towards the street to see if it was any of the neighbors’ children who could have done it. Then he looked at mom in silence. Finally mom, who always taught us to tell the truth no matter what, said, ―No bad neighbors did this great job, only your lovely daughter Clemence.‖
Dad’s face changed into a smile and then he said, ―Do I have better flower than my lovely daughter?‖ My younger sister smiled and hugged（拥抱）dad strongly.

B
In today’s world, almost everyone knows that air pollution and water pollution are harmful to people’s health. However, not all know that noise is also a kind of pollution, and that is harmful to human, too.
People who work and live under noisy conditions usually become deaf(耳聋的). Today, however, scientists believe that 10% of workers in Britain are deafened by the noise where they work. Many of the workers who print newspapers and books, and who weave cloth become deaf. Quite a few people living near airports also become deaf. Recently it was discovered that many teenagers in America could hear no better than 65-year-old people, for these young people like to listen to ―pop‖ music and most of ―pop‖ music is a kind of noise. Besides, noise produced by jet plane or machines will make people’s life difficult and unpleasant, or even make people ill or even drive them mad. It is said that a continuous noise of over 85 decibels（分贝） can cause deafness.
Nowadays the governments in many countries have made laws to reduce or control noise and make it less than 85 decibels. In China, the people’s government is trying to solve not only air and water pollution problems but also the noise pollution problems. 45. In the world today, not every person knows . A. water pollution B. air pollution C. harmful pollution D. noise pollution 46. Today scientists believe that .
A. 90% of all the workers in Britain are not suffering from noise B. 10% of all the workers in Britain are working in noisy places
C. 10% of all the workers in Britain are deafened by the noise where they work. D. 90% of all the workers are free from any noise 47. Those who usually have poorer hearing. A. weave cloth B. sell newspapers C. like listening to music D. often travel by plane
48. According to the passage, a continuous noise can make you deaf. A. in working places B. of less then 85 decibels C. of over 85 decibels D. of only 85 decibels
C
Going Zero Waste means more than dealing with the rubbish we create. It means reducing it, too. People who go Zero Waste are careful about what they do. They never take more than they need, they reuse plastic bags, and they make good plans not to buy more than necessary before going shopping.
Kamikatsu, a Japanese village, has already gone Zero Waste. The 2,000 villagers recycle everything possible. There are 34 different boxes at the recycling center! The villagers sometimes just feel unhappy about what they have to do, but they also see the good side.
Let’s think about how to enjoy a Zero Waste Christmas. By sending recyclable cards, we can help our friends and family reduce(减少) waste. And wouldn’t it be better to enjoy the spirit of Christmas with a real tree that can be re-planted in spring?
Going Zero Waste requires us to think more about what happens before and after we act. It is not always easy. But just think how good it would be, both for ourselves and for the earth we live on, if we never had to waste anything. 49. The underlined word ―it‖ in paragraph 1 refer to __________.
A. a plastic bag B. the rubbish C. a difficult thing D. going Zero Waste 50. Which of the following is a way of going Zero Waste? A. Plant trees at Christmas.
B. Using plastic bags when shopping.
C. Sending recyclable cards for Christmas. D. Buying things when you are very hungry.
51. What is the purpose of this passage? A. To persuade people to reduce waste. B. To teach people how to enjoy Christmas. C. To introduce the life of Japanese villagers. D. To tell people how to deal with difficulties. 52. How is the passage developed?
A. Topic--Examples--Discussion B. Examples--Argument--Topic
C. Topic--explanation--Argument D. Examples--Explanation--Discussion
D
When I was nine years old I lived in a small town. I found an ad for selling greeting cards in the back of a children’s magazine. I thought to myself I could do this. I begged my mother to let me send for the kit (配件). Two weeks later the kit arrived. The next three hours later, I returned home with no card and a pocket full of money shouting, ―Mama, all the people couldn’t wait to buy my cards!‖ A salesperson was born.
When I was twelve years old, my father took me to see Zig Ziegler. I remember sitting in the dark hall listening to Mr. Ziegler raise everyone’s spirits up to ceiling. I left there feeling like I could do anything. When we got to the car, I turned to my father and said, ―Dad, I want to make people feel like that.‖ My father asked me what I meant. ―I want to be a motivational speaker just like Mr. Ziegler,‖ I replied. A dream was born.
Recently, I began pursuing my dream of motivating（激励）others. I realized that everything I had achieved — a good education, the successful sales career, speaking appointments, training and managing for a major fortune 100 company as a senior manager— had prepared me for this moment. I told my boss I would leave the company though I might not reach such a height(高度) in career. He told me to move on and he believed I would succeed.
Having made that decision, I was immediately tested. One week after I quit(辞掉) my job, my husband was laid off from his job. We had recently bought a new home and needed both incomes to make the monthly mortgage (抵押) payment and now we were done to no income. I even planned to turn back to my former company, knowing they wanted me to stay but I was sure that if I went back, I would never leave. I decided I still wanted to move forward instead of ending up with a mouth full of ―if onlys‖ later on. A motivational speaker was born.
When I held fast to my dream, even during the tough times, the miracles（奇迹） really began to happen. In a short time period my husband found a better job. We didn’t miss a mortgage payment. And I was able to book several speaking appointments with new clients (客户). I discovered the incredible power of dreams. I loved my old job, my workmates and the company I left, but it was time to get on with my dream. To celebrate my success I had a local artist paint my new office as a garden. At the top of one wall she marked, “The world always makes way for the dreamer.‖ 53．Why was the kit sent for?
A. Selling greeting cards. B. Collecting greeting cards. C. Buying greeting cards. D. Sending greeting cards. 54．When did the author decide to become a motivational speaker?
A. After buying a new home by mortgage.
B. After leaving her secure position in the company. C. After finding a job in a major fortune 100 company. D. After listening to Mr. Ziegler’s inspiring speech. 55．Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?
A. She was once an excellent manager.
B. She left her post at the height of her career.
C. She was not sure whether the former company could accept her. D. She didn’t miss paying the monthly mortgage payment. 56．What does the underlined sentence mean in the last paragraph?
A. Carry on with your dreams and you will be successful. B. You will succeed if you have dreams. C. The world is full of people with dreams.
D. Everyone will realize their dream in the world.

July 12, Saturday Fine Today I went on a trip to Nanjiao Park with all my classmates. After an hour’s ride, we arrived there. As soon as we got there, we began to climb the hill. All the way up, we sang happily. On top of the hill, we played some interesting games. All of us enjoyed ourselves very much.
After we had our picnic at noon, we organized an activity, talking to the visitors about the importance of protecting the environment. At about 4 in the afternoon we returned.
We not only had a good time but also did a good deed today. Though I am tired now, I feel quite happy.
