Universities are doing everything they can to become a green campus. But there are also items students can do to make your campus more eco-friendly.
1)Recycle everything, especially paper!
There is a large amount of paper a college student goes through every term. We know that these things can't be avoided, but the way you handle the use of all the paper can really help create a better green campus.
2)Buy green.
Paper, cleaning products and water are products that can be bought as recycled goods. They're slightly more expensive than the normal products, but it's worth it to make a green campus.
3)Walk and bike to school.
Most campuses, especially those that are trying to become a more eco-friendly campus, have pretty good public transit (公共交通系统). Walking or biking will help make your campus a green university.
4)
A water bottle can be refilled at any water fountain and can easily be drunk in class or while riding a bike. This will save the environment by decreasing the amount of plastic waste on your campus.

It's true that many dads in the wild aren't interested in parenting, but there are some that work pretty hard to give their little ones a good start. Maybe one of these dads will make you remember your own dad!
The male giant water bug doesn't seem to mind a heavy load on his back for his kids. The female puts about 100 to 150 eggs on the back of the male, and then she leaves. Once the female is gone, the male has to look after the eggs. It usually takes one to two weeks for the eggs to hatch. The father giant water bug jumps around to make sure the growing eggs get enough air and water. All this time he can't fly because of the weight of the eggs growing rapidly on his back.
Now let's turn to the male stickleback fish. When the mother leaves after laying her eggs, the father tends his young. If the young fish go too far away, their father helps with their safe return by carrying them back in his mouth. The male stickleback looks after all his young — as many as 100 — until they can live on their own.
A similar example can be found in emperor penguins living in cold areas. The male emperor penguin goes without food while looking after his egg until it hatches. For about 62 to 67 days, the egg stays on top of the father's feet, in very cold temperatures that drop down to -39° C. As a result, the father may lose nearly 50 percent of his body weight while waiting for his baby penguin to be born!
(1)What do we know about the giant water bug?
A.It is unable to fly.
B.The eggs grow on the father's back.
C.The male must keep still to hatch the eggs.
D.The female looks after her eggs together with the male.
(2)During the hatching period, the male emperor penguin _______________.
A.is unable to eat
B.is fed by the female
C.tries to lose some weight
D.can't stand the cold weather
(3)What is the best title for the text?
A.Mr. Moms in the Wild
B.Animals Do Have Feelings
C.Nature Loves Us like Our Dad
D.Childbirth in the Animal Kingdom

【题目】Growing up in one of the poorest communities with most crimes in Los Angeles, US, being raised by a poorly-educated single mother and attending the worst-quality public school, not many people expected much of me, so I chose to expect something of myself.
On my 12th birthday, I bought a poster of Harvard University to hang in my room. Being at Harvard became my dream: I saw myself attending class in Sanders Theater, studying in Widener Library and eating in Annenberg Hall. Driven by this dream, I kept studying hard. I’d begin my day by asking myself these two questions: “What do I want in my life?” and “Are the things I am doing today going to get me closer to that life?”
Asking myself the questions gave me the courage to ask over 50 Harvard, students for advice on my application essays; it gave me the energy to study just one more hour on my SATs when others were asleep; and it gave me the determination to apply for just one more scholarship when already refused many times. Moreover, reminding myself of my goal each day made it easy to say no to the same choices my friends made, because they would never get me closer to my goal. I found that even being poor could not take away my power to decide what I choose to do with my life.
Every day I could feel myself getting closer and closer to my goal as my writing got better, my SAT score increased, and my scholarship offers started coming in. On March 31st, 2011, an email arrived from Harvard. The first word was “Congratulations!”. Tears of joy filled my eyes.
Who you are today is the result of the decisions you made yesterday, and who you will be tomorrow will be the result of the choices you make today. Who do you want to be tomorrow?

【2】How did the author push himself to get closer to his goal?
A. By hanging a poster of Harvard in his room.
B. By making the same choices with his friends.
C. By asking himself the questions each day.
D. By increasing his scores and getting scholarships.
【3】What is the author’s attitude to the hardship?
A. Disappointed. B. Positive.
C. Thankful. D. Sorrowful.
【4】What did the author want to tell us most?
A. A famous university, a successful life.
B. The earlier you set yourself a goal, the better.

Jane is my closely friend from America. Last Sunday we went to the Phoenix Park for trip. The weather was such lovely that there was a great number of visitors in the park. To our excitement, there was a wonderful robot show who caught our attention. Some people were boating on the lake, while others are swimming.

When it started to get dark, they left the park for home.

Question: Why is it so hard for some people to apologize after they've done something wrong? I have made efforts to persuade my uncle to be nice to people that he's hurt. How I wish things would be better if he'd just say he's sorry and ask them to forgive him.
Answer: It's just easier for him to pretend nothing happened than to face the embarrassment (尴尬) of admitting he was wrong. You've probably done the same thing yourself at some time. In fact, most of us have. Furthermore, what if others won't forgive him even if he apologizes?
Pride blinds us to our mistakes or faults. Or at least it makes us pay less attention to their seriousness.
Pride also makes us unwilling to admit to others that we were wrong. Perhaps we're afraid they will look down on us if we admit it.
But others see through our pride. And things would be far better if we admitted our faults and asked for forgiveness.
Now you know why your uncle refuses to apologize, talk to him again. Help him to learn how to apologize and ask for forgiveness from others.
A. But a deeper reason is pride.
B. But he just refuses to do that.
C. We may even hope that somehow they will overlook it.
D. As a result, you would offend others and hurt their feelings.
E. There are a variety of reasons for your uncle's refusal to apologize.
F. Otherwise our pride would only hurt us and cause conflict with others.
G. One reason your uncle finds it hard to apologize could be embarrassment.

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
Electrical devices (仪器) could soon use power made by human energy. Scientists say they have developed an experimental device that produces electricity from the physical movement of a person walking. British scientist Max Donelan and other scientists in Canada and the United States developed the device.
The device connects to a person's knee. As the person walks, the device captures energy each time the person slows down. To do this, the device helps with the slowing down movement of the leg. The movements of the walking person push parts of a small machine that produces electricity. Using the device, an adult walking quickly could produce thirteen watts of electricity in just a minute. Donelan says walking at that speed could produce enough power to operate a laptop computer for six minutes.
There are several possible uses for the device. Developers say it could help people who work in areas without electricity to operate small computers. The device could also be used in hospitals to operate heart pacemakers (起搏器). It could even be used to assist in the movement of robotic arms and legs.
The experimental version of the device weighs about one and a half kilograms, but it is too costly for most people to buy. But the researchers hope to make a lighter, less costly version. An improved version should be ready in one year.
The developers hope the device will one day help developing countries. Nearly twenty-five percent of people around the world live without electric power.
A similar product was invented in 2005 by Larry Rome of the University of Pennsylvania. He created a bag carried on a person's back that also produces power from walking. The knee device does not produce as much electricity as the bag. But the bag requires the walker to carry a load of twenty to thirty kilograms.
(1)The second paragraph mainly talks about ________.
A.who developed the device
B.how the device works
C.several possible uses for the devices
D.how much electricity the device can produce
(2)What is the disadvantage of the experimental version of the device?
A.It is too heavy for the walker to bear.
B.It is too complex for people to use.
C.It will slow down one's walking speed.
D.It is too expensive for most people to afford.
(3)Compared with the device designed by Larry Rome, this new device ________.
A.produces power without adding more loads to the walker
B.can produce more power in a much shorter time
C.needs to be equipped with a battery
D.can help the walker walk faster
(4)From the passage, we can learn that the electrical device can ________.
A.help housewives operate the micro-wave oven
B.make it much easier for us to go online
C.produce more electricity than that invented by Larry Rome
D.be applied in medicine to operate heart pacemakers
