     I am a man who has been egoistic (自我为中心的) and I have had a lack of respect for myself and
others around me. I participated in(参加) various transformation workshops, however, it made no
difference. I remained stuck in my life. As a result, I became separated from my family and reached rock
bottom in my life. Having reached there, I resisted transforming myself.
     After some time, I thought to myself, start believing in yourself and it will make a difference in your life.
I first started loving myself and then all those around me. I started respecting myself and then others
around me. My selfworth increased.
     Sangeeta is my workmate. She's transparent, honest and respectful. She's very poor and has a large
family to support. In addition, her husband doesn't hold a regular job. In short, she's struggling in life.
     On a cold winter morning, when she came to work, I found her shaking. I asked whether she had a
pullover (毛线套衫). She didn't reply. I had my answer. The next day when she came to work again, I
gave her the money to buy a pullover for herself. The expression of thankfulness in her eyes was
something that will remain with me for a long time.
     A few weeks ago, she was ill and didn't come to work. Instead, she sent her friend to do her work.
The moment I realized Sangeeta was sick, I gave her friend the money to buy medicines for her
treatment. It took Sangeeta some time to recover from her illness. The first thing I cared about was
whether she needed any more help of any kind. And she said, "Sir, you've done enough for me. I'm
grateful to you."
     That was the moment when I realized that I'm walking my path. Sometimes, I still fall down, but I get
up and start walking again even though I may have hurt myself in the process.

1. According to the passage, attending transformation workshops ________.

A. made the author closer to his family
B. changed the author's attitude
C. had little effect on the author
D. helped the author get along well with others

2. What did the author mean by saying "I had my answer" in Paragraph 4?

A. He knew Sangeeta had no pullover.
B. He knew Sangeeta was too proud to admit her poverty.
C. He knew Sangeeta was in danger at that time.
D. He had the chance to change Sangeeta's attitude towards him.

3. When Sangeeta was ill, the author ________.

A. gave her financial help
B. helped Sangeeta do her work
C. bought her medicines for treatment
D. met with refusal when offering help

4. The passage is mainly about ________.

B. changes which happen to the author
C. a woman who changed the author's life
D. the relationship between Sangeeta and the author

     A wise teacher once told me that every teenager needs to experience a not-so-fun first job from
working at a grocery store to the fast food industry.
     Now I still remember my first day at a fast food restaurant three years ago. I wanted to save up
money and buy my own car, so I applied everywhere I could that summer. The restaurant called me right
away and I thought to myself, this is going to be easy. Within four hours of my first shift (轮班), I had
angry customers who complained how slow I was. I watched in fear as a kid spilled his milk everywhere,
and I heard the words that no 16-year-old boy or anyone for that matter wants to hear:"Mike, there's a
problem in the men's bathroom and you might want gloves for this one." I realized right away that working at the restaurant was not going to be a picnic. The manager expected a clean environment and, particularly, fast service with a friendly smile.
     Over three years later I still work at that restaurant whenever I go home during vacations. I love my
co-workers there and all the customers know who I am. Every morning the same senior citizens come in
and get their morning coffees. They chat with us workers and joke around. Our smiles have just as much
to do with them making us a part of their everyday lives as the coffee does.
     From my first job at the restaurant, I learned teamwork and devotion. I also learned staying positive
no matter how rough things seem to get. I will forever carry the experience that I gained at the restaurant
with me as I go forward in my life.

1. Why did the author apply everywhere that summer? (No more than 12 words)  (2 marks)
   __________________________________________________________________________
2. What did the manager particularly expect the workers to do? (No more than 14 words)  (3 marks)
________________________________________________________________________
3. Why does the author still work at the restaurant during vacations? (No more than 13 words)  (2 marks)
________________________________________________________________________
4. What did the author learn from his first job? (No more than 13 words)  (3 marks)

     Adopting a vegan diet dramatically(显著地)reduces one person's impact on the environment.
     It would help deal with the problem of climate change if people ate less meat, according to a
government agency.
     A leaked email to a vegetarian campaign group from an Environment Agency official expresses
sympathy with the environmental benefit of a vegan diet, which bans dairy products and fish.
     The agency also says the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs(DEFRA)is
considering recommending eating less meat as one of the key environmental behavior changes needed
to save the planet.
      It says that this change would have to be introduced"gently"because of"the risk of alienating(使疏远)
the public".
      David Miliband, the Environment Secretary, has raised the issue that farm animals are blamed for
producing large amounts of powerful greenhouse gas, methane, and told farmers they need to do
something about it but the agency's response appears to go further than official advice.
     It has provoked(引起)an immediate response from the National Farmers Union, which said the
suggestion was"simplistic"and"a cause of concern".
     The agency's official was responding to an email from the vegan group Viva, which argues that it
is more efficient to use land to grow crops for direct consumption by humans rather than feeding them
to dairy cows or livestock(家畜)raised for meat.
      The campaign group entered a comment on the Environment Ageney's website saying:"Adopting
a vegan diet reduces one person's impact on the environment even more effective than giving up their
car or forgoing several plane trips a year!Why aren't you promoting this message as part of your
World Environment Day campaign?"
      An agency official replied:"While potential benefit of a vegan diet in terms of climate impact could
be very significant, encouraging the public to take a lifestyle decision as substantial as becoming a vegan
would be a request that few are likely to take up."
       You will be interested to hear that the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs is
working on a set of key environmental behavior changes to mitigate climate change.Consumption of
animal protein has been highlighted within that work.As a result the issue may start to figure in climate
change communications in the future.It will be a case of introducing gently as there is a risk of alienating
the public.
      "Future Environment Agency communications are unlikely to ever suggest adopting a fully vegan
lifestyle, but certainly encouraging people to examine their consumption of animal protein could be a
key message."
      Juliet Gellatley, director of Viva, said, "I think it is extraordinary that a government agency thinks
becoming a vegetarian or a vegan could have such a positive impact on the environment yet it is not
prepared to stand up and argue the case."
      A DEFRA spokesman said:"The government is not telling people to give up meat.It isn't the role
of government to enforce a dietary or lifestyle change on any individual."

     Ten years after the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001, America
has come out of the smoke a very different country. Nearly 3,000 people died on September 11.
     Suddenly America had to wake up to the    1 that not everyone loves the USA. Members of al-Qaeda, the
militant group that carried out the attacks, were angry about US support for the Israelis against Palestinians in
the Middle East, about US troops in Saudi Arabia, and about sanctions (制裁) against Iraq.
     "September 11 and the years that followed were a shock to our national    2 ," said Nicholas Burns,
American ambassador to NATO at the time. The struck not only concrete and steel, but also Americans' faith
in their power. The   3 that America had lost control of events was widespread.
     Historian Douglas Brinkley said 9/11 put America into a   4 "crouch". It started a mad   5   for protection.
The government agreed to measures that pulled apart privacy.
     In the name of fighting terrorism, the US launched wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. More than 6,000
Americans have died. Tens of thousands of ordinary people in those countries have also lost their lives. But
casualties are only part of the story. The world was shocked by photographs of Americans torturing Iraqis in
Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad. David Goldstein, a reporter with The Kansas City Star,    6 American
behavior:"Has torturing so-called terrorists saved American lives or made the    7 we trumpet around the
world weaker?…Is that who we've become?" However, a brief moment of national unity did occur straight
after 9/11."Americans were coming together in an    8 powerful way… in the ashes. We live in a bittersweet
memory of that collective tragedy and collective possibility," said filmmaker Ken Burns. September 11 was
that kind of   9 moment. When it was over, the Earth still turned in its usual way and the stars in the sky
shone as before. But the universe had shifted somehow.
