【题目】The brothers Grimm(格林兄弟), Jacob and Wihelm are synonymous with(同义的)fairytales. The stories they gathered have been read by millions of children in all countries over the last two hundred years. It’s difficult to think that any children could not be attracted by a tale like Red Riding Hood(小红帽),which never seems to grow old.
This year, Dec20 marked the 200th anniversary of publication of the tales. The Brimms collected the stories and gave them to the world because they wanted to show what German culture was about. In their time, Germany was not yet a nation; it was a collection of little states. Like many patriotic intellectuals(爱国知识分子),they thought they could help people in German territories(领土) to understand their own traditions.
Quite a few adult were shocked by brothers Grimm’s work. They wrote about a wolf who eats a little girl’s grandmother and an awful old woman who wants to put Hansel and Gretel in a stove. In fact, the original Grimm fairy tales are often far more unpleasant, and more adult in theme(主题).There is a lot of cruelty too. In the wedding scene of Snow White ,the stepmother dances in red-hot iron shoes that kills her.
However, other people came along and made these stories more “suitable” for children. The modern children’s writer Philip Pullman recently published a book of his versions of some Grimm tales. He points out that the Grimms themselves changed the stories, but for the better. They knew how to hold the attention of readers. “A Grimm tale,” he says, “moves with a dreamlike speed from event to event, pausing only to say as much as is needed and no more.” So, when we read a story from Grimms’ collection, we’re getting something from old Germany, but our enjoyment is also thanks to the brothers’ great storytelling skills.
【1】According to Paragrah1, Red Riding Hood____.
A. is popular with children all the time.
B. is too old for children to read
C. is a poorly organized story
D. is too stupid to be believed.
【2】What is the Brimms’ purpose in publishing the fairy tales?
A. To improved children’s reading skills.
B. To develop educational system.
C. To introduce their country’s culture.
D. To make a living by selling books.
【3】By mentioning Philip Pullman, the author intends to____.
A. describes the achievement of the Brothers Grimm
B. present a different side of Grimm fairy tales
C. prove the excellence of the Grimm fairy tales
D. compare the difference between the two versions
【4】In which section of a paper is the passage taken from?
A. Fun Times B. Comment
C. Life and Style D. Culture.

【题目】It is important for countries to develop. Sometimes development can do more harm than good for a country. Therefore, this development needs to be different from past development, which polluted the environment and wasted natural resources. One possible solution to this problem now being discussed is sustainable development. It focuses on preserving the environment and natural resources. It is all about creating better health care, education, housing and improved standard of living for everyone. This is a simple idea, but one that is hard to put into practice. However, it is something that we must do, because without sustainable development our future and the lives of our children and our grandchildren will be in danger.
Nearly everything we do in our modern lives requires the use of the Earth’s natural resources. These natural resources provide the energy for many important things. The list is almost endless. For all these things, we mostly depend on fuels such as coal, gas and oil to produce energy. We are now consuming these fuels at a much higher rate than they are being produced. On top of this, burning these fuels produces carbon dioxide, which is harmful to the environment. This is why many people are pushing for the use of alternative energy sources.
Alternative energy sources can be used without running out. Some examples of the alternatives are solar energy, wind energy and hydroelectricity. As people are becoming more aware of the need to protect the environment, these types of energy are becoming more and more popular.
In many parts of the world, tentative(试验性的) steps are being taken to introduce these forms of alternative energy. For example, some people in Nigeria are training to use solar power, and in Costa Rica, people are now using hydroelectricity to provide power for their small villages. The introduction of programmes like these will hopefully help end the systematic destruction of the environment and see alternative energy promoted around the world. This will mean good things for our future, our children’s future and our grandchildren’s future.
【1】We know from the passage that sustainable development _________.
A. means to develop slowly
B. can bring little good to the people
C. has ended the environmental destruction
D. is an idea being discussed
【2】It is important to preserve the natural resources because they _________.
A. consume the energy for important things
B. are running out
C. provide the energy for people to use
D. are being produced at a high rate
【3】 Hydroelectricity means ___________.
A. using the sun to provide electricity
B. using wind power to produce electricity
C. using water power to produce electricity
D. using water to protect the environment
【4】 What is the author’s attitude toward sustainable development?
A. Critical. B. Positive.
C. Tolerant. D. Doubtful.
