How can we get rid of garbage (垃圾) ? Do we have enough energy sources to meet our future energy needs?
These are two important questions that many people are asking today. Some people think that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time. They suggest using garbage as an energy source, and at the same time it can save the land to hold garbage.
For a long time, people buried garbage or dumped (倾倒) it on empty land. Now, empty land is scarce. But more and more garbage is produced each year. However, garbage can be a good fuel to use. The things in garbage do not look like coal, petroleum, or natural gas, but they are chemically similar to these fossil(化石) fuels. As we use up our fossil-fuel supplies, we might be able to use garbage as an energy source.
Burning garbage is not a new idea. Some cities in Europe and the United States have been burning garbage for years. The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water. The steam that is produced is used to make electricity or to heat nearby buildings. In Paris, France, some power plants burn almost 2 million metric tons of the cities garbage each year. The amount of energy produced is about the same as would be produced by burning almost a half million barrels of oil.
Our fossil fuel supplies are limited. Burning garbage might be one kind of energy source that we can use to help meet our energy needs. This method could also reduce the amount of garbage piling up on the earth.
What two problems can man solve by burning garbage?
A.The shortage of energy and air pollution.
B.The shortage of energy and the land to hold garbage.
C.Air pollution and the shortage of fossil fuel.
D.Air pollution and the shortage of land to hold garbage.

A.do experiments with water
B.purify the used water and reuse it
C.use fresh water once again
D.make use of seawater
We all have to learn how to stop wasting our limited water. One of the steps we should take is to find ways of reusing it. Experiments have already been done in this field.
Today in most large cities, fresh water is used only once, then it runs into waste system. But it is possible to pipe the used water to a purifying factory. There it can be filtered and treated with chemicals so that it can be used again, just as it were fresh from a spring.
But even if every large city purified and reused its water, we still would not have enough. Then we could turn to the oceans. All we’d have to do to make use of the seawater on earth is to get rid of the salt.
This process is called desalinization, and it is already in use in many parts of the world.
The way to stop wasting our limited water is to ().
A.do experiments with water
B.purify the used water and reuse it
C.use fresh water once again
D.make use of seawater

We could start with the advantages of mobile phones. There are many things that we could do with mobile phones. With the advancement of technology,more and more features are being added to the mobile phones which make them more useful. In addition to making calls,mobile phones also support a wide variety of other services such as text messaging,email,Internet access,business applications,gaming and photography. We can bring them everywhere,and can be reached by others anytime. They make the world smaller,bringing people together no matter where they are.
But we could have some risks when using our mobile phones. We may have accidents when we use them while driving. Some studies show that mobile phones can do harm to our bodies;and materials in mobile phones could damage our environment.
Since there are so many risks,why do we still have mobile phones?This is because these risks or disadvantages can be overcome. For example,while we are driving we can easily pull up our car if we really need to use the phone. Mobile phone manufacturers are reducing the radiation of mobile phones to avoid health risks.
Though there are both pros and cons of using mobile phones,we could easily see that there are more advantages than disadvantages. Moreover,mobile phones are becoming cheaper,which might be another reason why mobile phones are increasingly used today.
1. Which of the following functions is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. Text messaging.
B. Camera.
C. GPS.
2. What risks might mobile phones cause?
A. Traffic accidents and health problems.
B. Environmental damage.
C. Both A and B.
3. What are mobile phone manufacturers doing to prevent mobile phone users from health risks?
A. They are reducing the radiation of mobile phones.
B. They are trying to persuade people to use mobile phones less.
C. They are developing new models of mobile phones.
4. Why do people still use mobile phones despite their disadvantages?
A. Because people don’t believe that mobile phones have any disadvantages.
B. Because the disadvantages of mobile phones can be avoided.
C. Because people cannot live without mobile phones.
5. According to the last paragraph,why are mobile phones increasingly being used today?
A. They are safer.
B. They have more functions.
C. They are becoming cheaper.
The power of words, then, exists in their associations—the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience, and the longer we live, the more certain words remind us of the glad and sad events of our past, and the more we read and learn, the more number of words increases.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which deeply attract our minds and emotions. This skillful use of words is called "literary style". Above all, a real poet can express his meaning in words which sing like music and can move men to tears. We should, therefore, learn to choose our words carefully and use them properly, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.
The origin of language is______.
A.treasure handed down from the past
B.a matter that is hidden or secret
C.a problem not yet solved
D.a question difficult to answer
Other reasons they take that first drink are to be rebellious (反抗的), for curiosity or "kicks" (刺激) or to escape an unpleasant environment. And young people drink and use drugs because alcohol (酒精) and drugs are at hand.
After first experimental use, young people continue to drink or use drugs because they believe these substances can relieve boredom, increase energy, decrease anxiety, solve problems, or help them socially. They may simply like the "high" they get in the early and middle stages of substance use. After continued use, they will drink or use drugs because they become physically and psychologically (心理地) addicted (上瘾的).
Now that we have admitted that we have to solve this problem. We must decide how to deal with this challenge. Winning this will take a great effort involving local, state, and national government. It will require the effort of schools, but it cannot be done by schools alone. It will take family and com munity involvement. Already a great amount of time, energy and expert knowledge has been directed toward dealing with it but the problem continues.
Which of the following is not mentioned as the reason of drinking and using drugs in the passage?
A.the selling of alcohol and drugs
B.pressure from their parents and relatives
C.curiosity
D.their eagerness to experience what is not permissible to them
