Some of the greatest problems we face today are the destruction (破坏) of our environment. Brown clouds, polluted water, endangered wild animals.., these problems seem so huge.

So my family does what we can. We take cloth bags to stores instead of using plastic bags. We walk where we don't have to drive...

But does it do any good? When I am the only one in line at the market with cloth bags, am I doing any good? Does my walking to stores make any real difference to the world?

I recently learned something about flamingos (火烈鸟) which like to get together in groups of a thousand or more. Every year, when the time comes for migration (迁徙), a few of them first takeoff from the lake. But none of the others seem to notice, so the small group returns. However, the next day they try again. This time few more fly along with them, but most of them still pay no attention, so they return again. They try for several times. Every time a few more birds join in but, since the thousands of others still take no notice, the great migration plan is once more stopped.

Then one day something changes. The same small group of birds once again starts flying and a small number more join in just as before, then more. Finally, they all take flight and the migration really begins. What a spectacular sight it must be—thousands of flamingos taking off into the sky at once!

A few can make a difference. Even if you're the one to take the first step, and continue trying, others will someday take notice and together we will solve even our greatest problems.

1.Where would you most probably read this passage?

A.A guidebook. B.A movie poster.

C.A personal blog(博客). D.A geology(地质) magazine.

2.Why does the writer use cloth bags in stores?

A.Because he wants to do some good to the environment.

B.Because he thinks plastic bags are more expensive.

C.Because there are only cloth bags in stores.

D.Because all the people use cloth bags in stores.

3.What does the underlined word "spectacular" in Paragraph 5 probably mean?

A.Frustrating. B.Surprising. C.Terrible. D.Fantastic.

4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.Even if we can walk there, we still drive over.

B.Flamingos like to get together in groups of a thousand or more.

C.Brown clouds and polluted water are the only problems we face today.

D.When a few of the flamingos first take off from the lake, all the others follow at once.

5.What's the writer's purpose of writing this article?

A.To show that the writer loves to see the migration of flamingos.

B.To tell readers to continue trying and it can make a difference.

C.To introduce a special kind of flamingo to readers.

D.To show that there're many problems in the world.

Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, “Happiness depends on(取决于)ourselves.” In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are some ways to help you be happier.

The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend too much time thinking about the future—for example, getting into college or getting a good job—that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.

Another secret is to be active, and have hobbies that make you forget your problems and time. Many people dance or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.

Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.

1.The second paragraph tells us that________.

A.we shouldn’t think about our future. B.some people fail to live a happy life.

C.happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. D.the more friends you have, the happier you.

2.The writer thinks that ________.

A.everyone knows how to live a happier life

B.it’s wrong to spend time on work

C.people spent too much time on hobbies

D.doing good things for someone can make you happier

3.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT TRUE?

A.Happiness is always around us in some small things.

B.People are able to find and make their own happiness.

C.Money and success will never bring people happiness.

D.An active person who enjoy simple life must be happy.

4.The passage mainly tells us________.

A.how to enjoy happy life with your family B.we can find happiness by helping others

Bertie was sad for weeks, months after the lion died. There was nothing I could do to cheer him or even console (安慰) him. He would sit for hours in his room, or go off on long walks all on his own. He seemed so shut away inside himself, so distant. Try as I did, I could not reach him.

? Then one day I was in the kitchen here, when I saw him hurrying down the hill, waving his stick and shouting for me. “I’ve got it,” he cried, as he came in, “I’ve got it at last. ” He showed me the end of his stick. It was white. “See that, Millie?” “Chalk! It’s chalk underneath, isn’t it?”

“So?” I said.

“You know the famous White Horse on the hillside at Uffington, the one they carved out of the chalk a thousand years ago? That horse never died, did it? It’s still alive, isn’t it? Well, that’s what we’re going to do, so he will never be forgotten. We’ll carve The White Prince out on the hillside-he’ll be there forever, and he’ll be white forever too. ”

“It’ll take a bit of time, won’t it?” I said.

“We’ve got plenty, haven’t we?” he replied, with the same smile he had smiled at me when he was a ten-year-old boy asking me if he could come back and mend my kite for me.

? Every spare hour we had, we were up there scraping (刨土) away with spades (铲子), and we had buckets (桶) to carry away the earth. It was hard, back-breaking work, but it was a labour of love. We did it, Bertie and I, we did it together-paws, claws, tail, mane, until he was complete and perfect in every detail.

?It was just after we’d finished that the butterflies first came. We noticed that when the sun comes out after the rain in the summer, the butterflies-Adonis Blues, they are, I looked them up-come out to drink on the chalk face. Then The White Prince becomes a butterfly lion, and breathes again like a living creature.

? So now you know how Bertie’s white lion became The White Prince and how The White Prince became our butterfly lion.

(Adapted from The Butterfly Lion)
