【题目】 Bobby Buns was a very amusing and lively young man. He had his own cafe. During a visit to his parents' village, he discovered a special young cow. Instead of producing milk, this cow produced milk coffee.

Bobby thought that the cow could help him make money, so he took it straight to the city. When he arrived home, Bobby's wife told him that he should organize the cafe to make room for the cow first. But Bobby didn't listen to his wife's advice. He was so excited and impatient that he took the cow straight to the cafe.

The cow was very popular. It appeared in newspaper and on TV. Customers came from far and wide to taste the delicious fresh milk coffee.

However, here came the trouble. Every day the cow broke 20 to 30 cups simply by swishing its tail. Moreover, the cafe smelt bad and the grass the cow ate spread all the place.

Before long, the cafe began to lose customers. What's more, someone came to do an inspection. They put a heavy fine on Bobby that he almost had to close his cafe. Then Bobby realized that he had to be more patient and organized. He should wait until everything was ready serving his freshly milked milk coffee.

After learning from his failure, Bobby recognized his cafe and took the cow back to the village. There he discovered that one of the new hens laid chocolate eggs. This time he knew he had to be patient and wait until everything was ready.

In order to make his cafe into a successful business, he made a development plan for his cafe. After all this was ready, his cafe became the most successful in the whole city. People liked spending time in Bobby's cafe, enjoying the milk coffee and chocolate eggs.

【题目】 Paintings found on the walls of caves in the Sahara Desert suggest that a few thousand years ago, large quantities of plants grew there and covered the desert floor. Many curious and unusual insects, birds and animals got enough food that allowed them to grow and reproduce. At that time, huge river systems and many oases s1 growing communities (社团, 社区) where a large number of people lived.

Research scientists believe that the land became a desert for several reasons. For centuries people there have wandered from place to place in search of food, water and grazing (吃草) land for their animals. These people have always considered the number of animals they have as a sign of w2. It is considered more important to have 100 sick and starving animals than 15 healthy ones. The large herds () have been allowed to go freely and graze on desert plants and grass. Over time, large sections of land have been left uncovered. B3 overgrazing, these people cut down whatever trees they could find and used them for firewood. The sand was unable to hold on to the great heat of the day, so nighttime temperatures often drop below freezing and n4 was left to hold the soil together.

Scientists have been studying different ways to bring back the green desert. Through research and experiments, they hope to be able to produce plants that will once again support the life there. Huge holes f5 with much water lie under the desert surface. Scientists believe this rainwater simply flew down through the sand over hundreds of years and collected in the big, rocky holding tanks. By making use of the sun's power, scientists in the Sahara have made experiments in which they got huge amount of electricity. This electricity was then used to operate drilling machines and pumps to pull the rainwater from the underground tanks. By drilling the hole one mile deep into the floor of the desert, one machine was able to recover more than 80 gallons of ice-cold water each second, or 288,000 gallons per hour.

Scientists have had some s6 turning this wasteland into useful farmland. Today the desert is dotted with huge wheat fields watered by a system of pipes that carry water from the underground tanks. Farmers have also learnt that plants grow better if seeds are planted next to stones. Studies show that stones provide protection from the sun, allowing seeds to grow in a shady and cool environment. In addition to that, greenhouses have been built to protect plants from the sunshine so that l7 water is needed. Another idea is to grow plants that can live on a diet of salt water, since the ocean is so near to the desert.

【题目】 What would the world be like if cars could drive themselves? Imagine seeing an empty car passing by on its way to pick up its owner, or a car full of passengers who are reading, listening to music or even sleeping, but none of them is worried about the road ahead.

Well, all of this could be the future of driving. There are several companies, including Google, working on driverless cars. So far, no Google self-driven car has gotten a traffic ticket, but some of them have been in accidents when other cars hit them.

These cars are now still in the testing stages. But, if the tests are successful, these electric self-driven cars could be put into use very soon.

The cars already have many features (特点) allowing them to take the place of drivers during certain situations. Some features include cars being able to park themselves, or slow down when they notice objects close by. They can also control the speed if there are dangerous conditions. Scientists and engineers believe, with the help of wireless (无线的) signals, cameras and GPS, we are now at a stage where creating a safe self-driven car might be possible.

The cause of deadly road accidents is usually careless drivers or dangerous conditions. The self-driven car may be able to prevent these. However, some people don't like the idea. American lawyer White Drake, for example, does not believe these cars are safe. He thinks technologies can also make mistakes.

1The main purpose (目的) of the first paragraph is to ________.

A.make readers wonder about self-driven cars

B.get readers to pay attention to road safety

C.tell readers to keep away from heavy traffic

D.tell readers what self-driven cars are

2From the passage, the self-driven cars already have the following features EXCEPT________.

A.parking itself

B.controlling its speed in dangerous situations

C.slowing itself down near an object

D.avoiding car accidents one hundred percent

3What might make the self-driven cars run safely according to the passage?

a. e-reading b. wireless signals c. cameras d. GPS

A.a,b,cB.a,b,dC.b,c,dD.a,c,d

4What is White Drake's attitude toward the safety of the self-driven cars?

A.He has doubt about it.

B.He believes it completely.

C.He doesn't care about it.

D.He thinks its technologies are convincing (使人信服的).

【题目】 Need to buy something? Why go to a store? Buy it on the Internet! Need it now? Why wait? Ask for next-day delivery! Each day, more and more people try online shopping. In fact, online sales have doubled in the last ten years. But not everyone is excited. Some scientists now say that online shopping is bad for the environment.

People are surprised to hear this. “They think, ‘I don’t need to drive, and the business doesn’t need to build a store, so there will be less pollution,’” says Nuria Prost, an environmental scientist. “But it is not so simple. In fact, online shopping is wasteful. It also adds to air pollution.”

In truth, the Internet is not always as good a friend to the environment as it seems. For example, most people thought that the Internet would help offices use less paper and other materials. But paper use increased by 33 percent between 1986 and 1997. “Online shopping could have similarly negative effects,” says Nevil Cohen, a professor of environmental science.

Part of the problem is what people are buying these days. In the past, people bought things on the Internet that did not require much packing material, such as books and clothing. But now people also shop online for large, heavy products such as televisions, computers, and furniture. These products need to be packed in large amounts of plastic and paper. This creates a lot of waste.

Another problem caused by online shopping is air pollution. When customers buy products and ask for next-day delivery, companies often have to send them by air. Airplanes use much more fuel than cars and produce more carbon dioxide (CO2). When people buy a lot of different things from different online businesses, this creates even more travel by airplane.

Online product returns are also a problem. For example, an online shoe store may allow customers to return shoes without extra pay if they are the wrong size. This doubles the packing material and number of airplane trips required to sell one pair of shoes.

“If people want to protect the environment, they need to think before they shop,” says Prost. “People need to ask themselves: Is this exactly what I want? Do I really need it tomorrow, or can I wait?” Online stores can also charge(收费 customers for returns. This may make people shop more carefully. “Online shopping is fast and easy,” says Prost, “but we can’t forget the negative effects it has on the environment.”

1Why does online shopping create a lot of waste?

A.Because companies charge more for product returns.

B.Because paper use has increased by 33 percent from 1986 to 1997.

C.Because large, heavy products require much packing material.

D.Because people buy too many things they don’t need.

2Prost probably agrees that________.

A.people should drive to stores to buy things

B.online shopping saves more than shopping in a store

C.people can buy things online without careful consideration

D.online shopping adds pollution to the environment

3What is probably the best title of the passage?

A.A Good Deal to Make?B.A Cleaner Way to Shop?

C.A New Business to Start?D.A Different Lifestyle to Keep?
