14.April Fool's Day is supposed to be a day to play jokes on others in hopes of getting a good laugh and making one feel like a fool.However,the April Fool's Day of 2009was quite different for my mom and me.
  That day my friend Jimmy and I were playing a game.I had dropped down from a bar(横木)many times in the past without ever having a problem,but that day the simple act of dropping to the ground became a nightmare(噩梦).I broke my arm.
  Jimmy's dad heard my crying and rushed out to see what was going on.When he saw the problem,he quickly put me into his truck and went inside to telephone my mom and let her know he would take me to the hospital.As that day was April Fool's Day,Mom was not buying it and really thought all this was a big joke.Mom was finally convinced (确信)by Jimmy's mom.When she saw me,she was in tears because she felt so bad~~she originally(起初)thought tliis was just a big prank(恶作剧).
  I guess one could compare this to the story of The Boy Who Cried Wolf.Since I had pulled pranks before,it is no wonder that my mom didn't believe it.I as well as my mom was made to look like a fool that day.We both learned a valuable lesson.

D.He fooled his mom with his friend.

C.Because he wanted to tell her about the accident.
D.Because he wanted to see how deeply she loved her soa.

C.Because he thought it was his mom's fault

6.Rubbish is a major kind of environmental pollution.Each person produces about two kilograms of rubbish in our homes a day.And this is only a small part of all the rubbish we produce.We also create waste in industry.
    Have you wondered what happens to the rubbish?Most of it is buried in landfills or burned.Less than 25% of our waste is recycled.A landfill is carefully designed and it is built into or on top of the ground.Rubbish buried in landfills is cut off from the surrounding environment (groundwater,air,rain,etc.).
    One problem with landfills is that they cover a lot of land space.If they are not well-built,there is a high risk of polluting the land and water.Some people also say that landfills remove materials for ever.As a result,the materials that can be reused are wasted.
    Burning rubbish in factories is another way to cut out waste.Burning reduces 95% of the waste.And if poisonous materials are removed.and burning is completed at controlled temperatures,it's possible to do so without causing too much pollution.Some factories could even produce electricity from the burning process.
    Not all of the rubbish can be burned,so we have to separate(分类) it before we burn it.However,separation costs a lot of money.Another problem with burning rubbish is that what is left after burning is poisonous.How to safely deal with it is a continuing problem.
    Before the mid-20th century,landfills were the main way to deal with waste.In the late 20th century,other ways like recyling have been introduced to help reduce global pollution.

66.What is the advantage of burying rubbish in landfills?D
A.Reducing 95% of the waste.
B.Reusing the materials buried in landfills.
C.Producing electricity.
D.cutting off rubbish from the surrounding environment.
67.What does"landfill"mean in Chinese?B
A.土坝   
B.垃圾填埋场   
C.土地税   
D.垃圾堆

A.the separation of rubbish
B.the problems with burning rubbish
