Young people are invited to compete in this arts festival with classes covering speech, guitar, dance, poetry and short story writing, and so on. The previous year's winners are invited back to perform again at a special concert. With a long and well-known history behind it, this well-attended competition is a kind of forerunner of popular television talent contests such as Pop Idol.

B. Sydney Writers' Festival Sydney, Australia

Held at Sydney's Wharf 4/5, the annual Sydney Writers' Festival is the biggest literary event of its kind in Australia and one of the biggest book fairs in the world. Attracting a mix of authors, poets, editors, publishers and book lovers, this is a great event at which people can look through thousands of titles while enjoying workshops, book readings and seminars.

C. Flipside Festival Singapore

As part of the Singapore Arts Festival Outreach Programme, Flipside aims to reach a much wider audience with three weeks of lively, fun street performances.

D. Hay Festival Hay on Wye, the United Kingdom

The little market town, Hay, has a population of 1500 and no fewer than 39 bookshops. It bills itself as the world's first and most distinguished book town, and is, therefore, a perfect place for a literary festival. The festival is a celebration of great writing. There are events including film screenings and musical concerts and the bookshops remain open throughout.

E. Bergen International Festival Bergen, Norway

Founded in 1953, the Bergen International Festival presents an impressive cast of outstanding international artists in the fields of music, ballet, opera and other performing arts.

The main festival venue is the Grieg Hall while the smallest and most unusual is an old trolley bus with seating for just 33 people.

F. Nuits Sonores Lyon, France

Held each May, this relatively new festival brings together some of the biggest club DJs from around the world. The focus is on electronic dance music, but it also embraces all musical forms ranging from hip hop to jazz. For those that want to see daylight hours after a hard night clubbing, there is a wide variety of cultural events during the day ranging from special festival food programmes to films.

Christine was just a girl in one of my classes. I never knew much about her except for that she was strange. She didn't talk many. Her hair was black and purple, and she worn black sports shoes and a black sweater, although in the summer, she was, in fact, rather attractively, and she never seemed care what the rest of us thought about her. Like the rest of my classmate, I didn't really want to get closest to her. It was only when we did their chemistry project together that I begin to understand why Christine dressed the way she did.

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。

Environmentalists said our planet was doomed to die. Now one man says they are wrong.

“Everyone knows the planet is in bad shape,”thundered a magazine article last year. Species(物种) are being driven to die out at record rates,and the rivers are so poisonous that fish are floating on the surface,dead.

But there's a growing belief that what everyone takes for granted is wrong:things are actually getting better. A new book is about to overturn our most basic assumptions about the world's environment. Rivers,seas,rain and the atmosphere are all getting cleaner. The total amount of forests in the world is not declining. The Skeptical Environmentalist by Bjorn Lomborg,professor of statistics at the University of Aarhus in Denmark,is an attack on the misleading claims of environmental groups,and the “bad news” culture that makes people believe everything is getting worse.

Now the attacks are increasingly coming from leftwing environmentalists such as Lomborg,a former member of Greenpeace. The accusation is that,although the environment is improving,green groups-with profits of hundreds of millions of pounds a year-are using scare tactics(谋略) to gain donations. Lomborg's book doesn't deny global warmingprobably the biggest environmental threat-but destroys almost every other environmental claim with many official statistics.

The Worldwatch Institute claims that “deforestation has been accelerating over the last 30 years”.But Lomborg says that is simply rubbish. Since the dawn of agriculture the world has lost about 20 per cent of its forest cover,but in recent decades the forestarea's depleting has come to a stop. According to UN figures,the area of forests has remained almost steady,at about 30 per cent of total land area,since the 1940s.Forests in countries such as the US,the UK and Canada have actually been expanding over the past 40 years. Despite all the warnings the Amazon rainforest has only shrunk(缩小) by about 15 per cent.

Nor are all our species dying out. Some campaigners claim that 50 per cent of all species will have died out within 50 years. But other studies show only 0.08 per cent of species are dying out each year. Conservation efforts have been successful. Whales are no longer threatened and the bald eagle is off the endangered list.

Environmental groups claim that many of the improvements are the results of the success of their campaigns. Stephen Tindale,director of Greenpeace UK,said,“There are important examples,such as acid rain and ozone,where things aren't as bad as predicted,and that's because behavior has changed.”

【1】In his book,The Skeptical Environmentalist,what is Lomborg's main argument?

A.Our planet is in bad shape.

B.The world's environment is improving.

C.The total amount of forests in the world is not declining.

D.Conservation efforts have been successful.

【2】What is Lomborg's main accusation of environmentalists?

A.They scared people into making donations.

B.They overturned our basic assumptions about the world's environment.

C.They changed their behavior toward the environment.

D.They only told people bad news about the environment.

【3】The underlined word “depleting” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to “________”.

A.reducing

B.limiting

C.expanding

D.accelerating

【4】According to the passage,which of the following statements is true?

A.The total area of forests in the world has increased significantly.

B.The effects of global warming are not as bad as first expected.

C.It appears that the bald eagle will survive.

D.In the last 50 years the number of whales has increased.

I almost didn’t wake up in time for school this morning. I stayed up late last night, prepare my lessons. The alarm clock does go off, but I didn’t hear them because I was too tired.

It was already 7 o’clock when I opened my eye. The first thing I was aware was that I would be late. Terrified, I ran to school and without having breakfast. I didn’t want to be criticized by the teacher, nor I want to be laughed at by my classmates. Lucky, I rushed into the classroom in the last minute. We had a test today, for that I was well-prepared and it was so easy a exam that I got high marks. What an exciting experience!
