Green is an important color in nature. It is the color of grass and the leaves on trees. It is also the color of most growing plants.
Sometimes, the word green means young, fresh and growing. Sometimes, it describes something that is not yet ripe or finished. For example, a greenhorn is someone who has no experience, who is new to a situation. In the fifteenth century, a greenhorn was a young cow or ox whose horns(角) had not yet developed. A century later, a greenhorn was a soldier who had not yet had any experience in battle. By the eighteenth century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today—a person who is new in a job.
Someone who has the ability to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb. The expression comes from early nineteen hundreds. A person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well. You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden continues to grow long after your plants have died. 
The Green Revolution is the name given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains. The new plants produced much larger crops. The Green Revolution was the result of hard work by agricultural scientists who had green thumbs.
Green is also the color used to describe the powerful feeling, jealousy(嫉妒). The green-eyed monster is not a frightening creature from outer space. It is an expression used about four hundred years ago by British writer William Shakespeare in his play “Othello”. It describes the unpleasant feeling a person has when someone has something he wants. A young man may suffer from the green-eyed monster if his girlfriend begins going out with someone else. Or, that green-eyed monster may affect your friend if you get a pay rise and he does not.
1.A greenhorn now refers to ____.
A. a cow without horns B. a new solider
C. a young horse D. a person who is new in a job
2.A person who has a green thumb is a person ____.
A. whose garden is greener than others’
B. whose thumbs are of green color
C. who is good at growing plants
D. who is younger than his neighbors
3.The author is actually talking about ____.
A. language B. colors
C. politics D. agriculture
4.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. In about the 16th century, a greenhorn meant an experienced soldier.
B. The Green Revolution may have some connection with green thumbs.
C. The green-eyed monster was probably created by William Shakespeare.
D. The green-eyed monster can be used to describe a person who is jealous.

Not too long ago, our teacher, being a “tree-hugger”(as the kids call her), had us write an essay on an environmental issue. I was eager to start, but something made me stop.
“What is an environmental issue?” one kid asked. “What if we don’t care about the environment?” another complained. “It’s not like it affects me.”
These comments astounded me. I have always cared about the environment and assumed that others did too. From the surprised look on my teacher’s face, I could tell she felt the same way.
In no time, I finished my essay. In my essay I wrote about logging(伐木), which is an important industry, but if we continue to cut down trees without replacing, it will damage the environment.
There are so many things that we can do to save our world. Recycling, of course, is always a good thing, but not everyone has a recycling plant nearby (I don’t). There are other ways to help the environment. Plant a tree. Don’t waste water.
I can’t stand it when a person’s excuse for not caring is “Nothing is going to happen in my lifetime, so why should I care?” Sure, the chances of something terrible happening are slim, but I want people to realize that if we don’t deal with it, someone will have to eventually. Do you want that to be your children? Or your children’s children?
When my teacher told me to read my essay to my class, I was a little embarrassed because I didn’t want everyone to call me “tree-hugger”. I realize now that if being a tree-hugger means you care about the environment, I’m a tree-hugger 100 percent. I just wish more people were.
1.Why do the students call their teacher “tree-hugger”?
A. She likes hugging trees.
B. She knows a lot about trees.
C. She grew up in the countryside.
D. She cares a lot about the environment.
2.At the beginning, the author stopped writing _____ .
A. to ask some questions
B. because of other kids’ comments
C. to listen to the teacher’s instructions
D. because he had no idea about the topic
3.The underlined word “astounded” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by “_____” .
A. helped B. changed
C. shocked D. interested
4.Paragraph 5 is mainly about _____ .
A. what we can recycle
B. how we can save the earth
C. why we should protect the earth
D. what damage we are doing to the earth
5.We can infer from the passage that _____ .
A. the students don’t like the teacher
B. the teacher liked the author’s essay
C. the author is ashamed of being a tree-hugger
D. the author should have written a better essay

There is one type of illness in the world that has a severe effect on more people than anything else and is very deadly. If untreated, this illness could affect everything you do. What is this illness? Depression. Serious depression requires professional treatment. Self-induced depression is something each of us can change.
Everyone’s circumstances are different, but the causes of self-induced depression are common: low self-esteem, hurtful thinking and a bad attitude.
So how can we change the way we think, feel, and have a cheerful attitude?
First we must look at ourselves, truly and honestly examining our motives for what we wish to accomplish. If you are dissatisfied because you feel you haven’t or can’t do anything, then one step is needed—to set goals.
Always start your goals relatively small and easy to attain. Think of them as sand; one grain may be insignificant(微不足道的) but as a group they form the beach. Once you have set and attained small goals for yourself, move on to slightly larger, more challenging goals.It takes not just setting goals but positive thinking. How can we obtain this?
There are a number of factors that can make us think negatively and one of those is diet.In my opinion, a person who eats a lot of take-out and fast food is feeding their body junk. Start by eating better foods which give the body much NEEDED minerals. If your physical body is happy, it’s much easier for your mental body or “thinking ability” to be happy.[
Next, exercise. Half an hour a day is recommended for positive well-being. Then think about good memories you had, or generally think of things that make you smile. Remember, everything you wear costs money but to wear a smile is free. A smile can be the difference between an average day and a great day.
If you follow these steps, positive change is on the way.
1.Which of the statements about depression is TRUE?
A. Depression is a kind of illness that can’t be cured like some cancer.
B. Depression can all be cured successfully by doctors in an easy way.
C. Those who suffer from depression live in the same circumstances.
D. Those who suffer from depression hold negative attitudes.
2.According to the passage we can learn that ________.
A. a practical goal can help people to achieve a sense of success
B. we shouldn’t be satisfied with small goals that are insignificant
C. we should avoid challenging goals that may result in failure
D. people can enjoy happiness even if they set inappropriate goals
3.What can we infer from the reading passage?
A. Those who can achieve small goals can surely achieve big ones.
B. Depression has something to do with the food people eat.
C. You can only exercise half an hour if you want to get rid of depression.
D. Smile makes no sense to the feeling in daily life.

Americans always attach great weight to the business of the country. President Coolidge’s statement, “the business of America is business.” Still points to an important truth today—that business institutions have more prestige(威望) in American society than any other kind of organization, including the government. Why do business institutions possess this great prestige?
One reason is that Americans view business as being more firmly based on the ideal of competition than other institutions in society. Since competition is seen as the major source of progress and prosperity by most Americans, competitive business institutions are respected. Competition is not only good in itself, it is the means by which other basic American values such as individual freedom, equality of opportunity, and hard work are protected.
Competition protects the freedom of the individual by ensuring that there is no monopoly (垄断、垄断者) of power. In contrast to one, all-powerful government, many businesses compete against each other for profits. Theoretically, if one business tries to take unfair advantage of its customers, it will lose to competing business which treats its customers more fairly. Where many businesses compete for the customers’ dollar, they cannot afford to treat them like inferiors(下属) or slaves.
A contrast is often made between business, which is competitive, and government, which is a monopoly. Because is competitive, many Americans believe that it is more supportive of freedom than government, even though government leaders are elected by the people and business leaders are not. Many Americans believes, then, that competition is as important, or even more important, than democracy in preserving freedom.
Competition in business is also believed to strengthen the ideal of equality of opportunity. Competition is seen as an open and fair where success goes to the swiftest person regardless of his or her social class background. Competitive success is commonly seen as the American alternation to social rank based on family background. Business is therefore world as an expression of the idea of equality of opportunity in America rather than the aristocratic(贵族的) idea of inherited privilege in many other countries
1.The statement “The business of America is business” probably means “_______”.
A. the business institutions in American are concerned with commerce(商业)
B. business problems are of great importance to the American government
C. business is of primary concern to Americans
D. America is a great power in world business
2.Who can benefit from the business competition?
A. Honest businessmen.
B. People with ideas of equality and freedom.
C. Both businessmen and their customers.
D. Both business institutions and government.
3.Government is believed to differ unusually from business because government is characterized by ________.
A. its absolute control of power
B. its function in preserving personal freedom
C. its role in protecting basic American values
D. its democratic way of exercising leadership
4.It can be concluded from the passage that the author believes ________.
A. Americans are more ambitious than people in other countries
B. in many countries, success often depends on one’s social status
C. American businesses are more democratic(民主的) than those in other countries
D. businesses in other countries are not as competitive as those in America
