    【题目】Pollution’s serious effects on the environment have become more obvious in recent years.Most scientists agree that efforts are necessary to protect our environment from further harm.

    As we know,the construction industry consumes a large quantity of energy and resources and creates a huge amount of pollution.So green buildings are in great need.

    The environmental benefits of building green include the protection of ecosystems and biodiversity（生物多样性）,improved air and water quality,less waste flowing into streams and the protection of natural resources.Green buildings can also result in lower operating costs because they typically use less energy and fewer materials and improve indoor air quality,improving the health of people who live there.

    The process of building green includes technical and artistic planning with nature protection in mind.Building designs often reflect the surrounding environment and natural resources and use renewable building materials such as bamboo and straw.In addition,recycled resources found locally are used for green buildings,reducing the cost and air pollution associated with transporting materials long distances.

    Careful site selection is important to minimize（最小化）human effect on the surrounding environment.For example,placing a structure in an area that allows it to take advantage of cool breezes（微风）and sunlight can reduce energy use and expenses.More energy and expense are needed for larger buildings as well,so it is important to build small.

    Green roofs are another feature of green houses that reduce energy use and cost.These roofs are partially or completely covered with plants,which helps to keep heating and cooling costs low,prevent water running off and deal with pollutants.

    Other features of green buildings often include energy and water protection,recycling and waste reduction.In addition,renewable energy sources such as solar power,waterpower and wind power are used for heat and electricity, which greatly reduces costs and decreases the influence on the environment.

    【1】What can we know about green building?

    A. Producing no waste. B. Only using clean energy.

    C. Being made of new materials. D. Environmental friendly.

    【2】What is a green building probably like according to the fifth paragraph?

    A. Large. B. Small.

    C. Green. D. Low.

    【3】What is the purpose of using green roofs?

    A. To fit the environment. B. To keep warm.

    C. To collect nature water. D. To lower costs.

    【4】What is the text mainly about?

    A. Promoting energy efficiency. B. Environmental benefits.

    C. Building green. D. Ecosystems and biodiversity.

    This is a part of Debra Jarvis' speech at TED in 2014, which described what she learned when she was a cancer patient.
    In 2005, it was at a big cancer center where I was working 1 I received the news that my mother had breast cancer. And then five days later, I received the news that I had breast cancer. My mother and I can be competitive, but I was really not trying to 2 with her on this one.
    I learned a lot being a patient, and one of the surprising things was that only a small part of the cancer experience is about 3. Most of it is about feelings and faith, losing and 4 your identity, and discovering 5 you never even knew you had. It's about realizing that the most important things in life are not things at all, 6 relationships. It's about laughing in the 7 of uncertainty and learning that the way to get out of almost anything is to say: “I 8 cancer.”
    So the other thing I 9 was that I don't have to 10 “cancer survivor” as my identity. Sometimes, it feels like people are too crazy 11 it and they start telling us how we're going to feel.
    About a week after my operation, we had a houseguest. So at dinner that night, our houseguest said: “You know, Deb, now you're really going to learn what's 12. Yes, you are going to make some big changes in your life, and now you're going to start 13 about your death. Yep, this cancer is your wake-up call.” Now, these are golden 14 coming from someone who is speaking about their own experience, but when someone is telling you how you are going to feel, it doesn't 15. After my treatment, it just felt like everyone was telling me what my 16 was going to mean.
    It was at that point where I felt like, oh my God, this is just 17 over my life. And that's when I told myself: Take charge of your experience. Don't let it 18 you. We all know that the way to deal with this unpleasant experience, with loss, with any life-changing experience, is to find 19. But here's the thing: No one can tell us what our experience means. We have to 20 what it means.

    【题目】阅读理解
    When milk arrived on the doorstep
    When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr.Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldn't take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.
    Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note-"Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery"—and place it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically appear.
    All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldn't freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.
    There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besides, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practiced to have a delivery service.
    Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. I took it home and planted it on the back porch. Every so often my son's friends will ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.
    （1）Mr.Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer ________.
    A.to show his magical power
    B.to pay for the delivery
    C.to please his mother
    D.to satisfy his curiosity
    （2）What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy's house?
    A.He wanted to have tea there.
    B.He was fully trusted by the family.
    C.He was treated as a family member.
    D.He was a respectable person.
    （3）Why does home milk delivery no longer exist?
    A.It has been driven out of the market.
    B.Nobody wants to be a milkman now.
    C.Its service is getting poor.
    D.It is forbidden by law.
    （4）Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?
    A.He planted flowers in it.
    B.He wanted to tell interesting stories.
    C.He needed it for his milk bottles.
    D.He missed the good old days.

    【题目】根据短文理解，选择正确答案。
    You get on an almost-empty bus, but the next passenger decides to ignore all the empty seats to sit right next to you. While you are waiting in line at the supermarket, the next customer stands just behind you shouting into his phone.
    These are attacks of the personal space invaders(侵略者). Though preferences for personal space differ from culture to culture, we Britons do love our independence and personal space.
    As the British customs website Debrett has said, as a British person, somebody standing too close may make you “focus less on what somebody is saying than on how close they are to you”. Simple acts like putting an arm around someone you don't know that well may seem friendly in China, but they can make us very uncomfortable. The ediplomat.com website explains: “The British are not back slappers (拍打者) or touchers and generally do not show affection (喜欢) in public.”
    Being a British person around people from other countries can therefore be full of problems. People from many European countries such as France and Spain kiss each other on the cheek when they meet, yet to us this seems too friendly and “touchy-feely”.
    Simple matters like how close others stand can be problems to Britons who want to keep their own personal space. Giving advice on how to behave around a British person, Debrett's says that “if you can feel the warmth of their worried breath upon your face, then you're standing too close”.
    So, are British people unfriendly? No. The ediplomat.com website explains that we are not as “indifferent” as we may seem, but “very friendly and helpful to foreigners”. However, we do have different ideas about our own space to many people from other countries. Just let us know if you're going to come any closer than arm's length, and you'll be fine!
    （1）What is the article mainly about?
    A.How to make friends with British people.
    B.Some tips on British table manners.
    C.Ways in which British people show affection.
    D.British people's preference for personal space.
    （2）If you were meeting a British person for the first time, it would be polite of you to ______, according to the article.
    A.kiss him/her on the cheek
    B.put an arm around him/her
    C.keep an arm's length away from him/her
    D.slap his/her back or shake his/her hands
    （3）The underlined word “indifferent” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to “_____”.
    A.cold
    B.modest
    C.gentlemanlike
    D.independent
    （4）What can we conclude from the article?
    A.British people like to sit next to others on empty buses.
    B.British people are helpful, although they may not appear to be.
    C.British people do not like staying with other Europeans.
    D.British people are happy to show affection in public.
