Cars are everywhere. In big city and small towns, the preferred method of transportation is the automobile. People can get to where they need to go quickly and easy, and it has given a new kind of freedom to many people who may not have experienced it ago. But was driving really the best thing for our society? I argue that it is not. First, pollution was a serious problem, and more cars only make them worse. There is just not way to reduce pollution without decrease the number of cars on the road. Second, cars are very dangerous. Traffic accidents are responsible tens of thousands of deaths every year. Finally, cars are so expensive for most people to afford. However, that doesn’t stop low-income families from spending the most of their money to pay for the family car.

根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Everyone can help to save the world
We are all environmentalists now. We all know about acid rain and the ozone hole. 1. As consumers we have the power to make decisions which will contribute to a better world and it is in our power to do what we can to protect the earth.
2. In this way we have the power to influence retailers (零售商) to sell us these so-called “green” products. Therefore, the supermarkets have understood the message and are now trying to improve their environmental image. They are turning to less wasteful and recyclable packaging. The range of “green” products will continue to expand to meet the growing demand. This message has also reached the manufacturers. 3. They have realized that protecting the environment may start as an advertising campaign but in the hands of intelligent people it can become a very profitable business. Besides, we can do more.
Furthermore, we also know there are other areas where all of us can make a positive contribution to a cleaner, healthier and safer environment. 4. There are a number of ways we can do this. For example, we now know how important it is to have our homes well insulated (隔热). We should choose the best energy efficient technology, such as modern light bulbs which can reduce electricity consumption by 80% over the older ones. We must also work hard to reduce the amount of rubbish we produce. We all produce tons of rubbish and waste disposal has become a big problem. As an environmentally-conscious consumer we should buy products which do not have so much packaging. Also, we should try to avoid non-returnable goods at all costs. In Scandinavia and Germany, for example, plastic bottles and cans are now returnable goods.
In conclusion it is important to emphasize once again the rise of consumer power. We must realize that we are all part of the problem. 5.
A. We can all reduce energy consumption at home and so cut the emissions from power systems.
B. For example, when we walk into a supermarket we can choose to buy environmentally friendly products and reject products which damage our planet.
C. There are some other ways to protect the environment.
D. Companies are developing environmentally friendly products that maintain a high quality and a low price.
E. But what are we doing about these problems?
F. Nevertheless we must also realize that we have the responsibility to be part of the solution.
G. Everybody has the duty to contribute to a cleaner world.

“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”
—Albert Einstein
If you have a kid with special needs in the school system, chances are you have come across that saying hanging on a classroom wall. My five-year-old daughter Syona has cerebral palsy (a medical condition affecting someone’s control over their movement ) and it means, combined with her communication challenges and sight problems, that standard assessments (and by “standard”, I mean the ones used to assess kids with special needs ) aren’t always an accurate measure of her abilities.
By now you have probably heard about Chris Ulmer, the 26-year-old teacher in Jacksonville, Florida, who starts his special education class by calling up each student individually to give them much admiration and a high-five (a gesture of greeting or congratulation). I couldn’t help but be reminded of Syona’s teacher and how she supports each kid in a very similar way. Ulmer recently shared a video of his teaching experience. “I have seen their confidence and self-worth increase rapidly, ” he said. All I could think was: How lucky these students are to have such inspirational teachers.
Syona’s teacher has an attitude that can best be summarized in one word: awesome. Her teacher doesn’t focus on what can’t be done—she focuses on what can be done. Over the past several months, my husband Dilip and I have seen Syona’s confidence increase tenfold. She uses words she wouldn’t have thought of using before. She recently told me about her classmate’s trip to Ecuador and was very proud when I understood her on the first try.
I actually wonder what the influence would be if we did something similar to what Ulmer does with his students in our home. We’ve recently started our day by reminding each other of the good qualities we all possess. If we are reminded of our strengths on a regular basis, we will become increasingly confident about progress and success.
Ulmer’s reach as a teacher goes far beyond the walls of his classroom. In fact, he teaches all of us to take a moment and truly appreciate the strengths of an important person in our lives.
1.What does the author think of Einstein’s quote?
A. Funny.B. True.C. Strange.D. Confusing.
2.What can we learn about Chris Ulmer?
A. He praises his students one by one.
B. He is Syona’s favorite teacher.
C. He use videos to teach his students.
D. He asks his students to help each other.
3.Syona felt very pleased because ________.
A. she has developed a cool attitude
B. her progress was appreciated by her parents
C. her mother knew what she expressed
D. she had been to Ecuador with her classmate
4.What change has taken place in the author’s family？
A. They invite Ulmer’s students to their home.
B. They visit Umer’s classroom regularly.
C. They feel grateful to people in their lives
D. They give each other praise every day.
