         I am a good mother of three children.I have tried never to let my passion stand in the way of being a
    good parent.
         I no longer consider myself the center of the universe.I show up.I listen.I try to laugh.I am a good
    friend to my husband.I have tried to make marriage vows (誓言) mean what they say.I am a good friend
    to my friends, and they to me.Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.
        So here's what I want to tell you today:Get a life.A real life, not a desire of the next promotion (提升),
    the bigger paycheck, the larger house.
         Get a life in which you are not alone.Find people you love, and who love you.And remember that love
    is not leisure (休闲), it is work.Pick up the phone.Send an email.Write a letter.And realize that life is the
    best thing and that you have no business taking it for granted.
         It is so easy to waste our lives, our days, our hours, and our minutes.It_is_so_easy_to_exist_instead_
    of_to_live.I learnt to live many years ago.Something really, really bad happened to me, something that
    changed my life in ways that, if I had my choice, it would never have been changed at all.And what I
    learned from it is what, today, seems to be the hardest lesson of all.
         I learned to love the journey, not the destination.I learned to look at all the good in the world and try
    to give some of it back because I believed in it, completely and totally.And I tried to do that, in part, by
    telling others what I had learned.
         By telling them this:Read in the backyard with the sun on your face.Learn to be happy.And think of life as a deadly illness, because if you do, you will live it with joy and passion (激情) as it ought to be lived.

         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
