It was the last day of final examinations at a large college. On the steps of one building, a group of engineering students were discussing the exam that was ahout to begin. On their faces was confidence. This was their last exam before they graduated(毕业)and found jobs.
Some talked of jobs they already had,others of jobs they would get. With four years of college study,they felt ready and able to conquer(征服)the world.
The coming exam,they knew,would be easy. The professor(教授)had said they could bring any books or notes they wanted,but they couldn’t talk to each other during the test.
They walked into the classroom. The professor passed out the papers. The students’ smiles became wide as they saw that there were only five essay-type questions.
Three hours passed and the exam came to an end. Then the professor began to collect the papers. The students no longer looked confident. They seemed worried. No one spoke as the professor faced the class with the papers in her hand.
She looked at all the worried faces in front of her, and then asked,“How many students completed all five questions?”
Not a hand was put up.
‘‘How many of you answered four?” Still no hands.
“Three?Two?”The students moved restlessly in their seats.
“One,then. Certainly somebody finished one.”But the class stayed silent. The professor put down the papers.“That is just what I expected,”she said.
“I just wanted to make sure you realize that even though you have studied engineering for four years, there are still many things about the subject you don’t know. Instead of testing you on what you learned in this class, I’ve given you questions that skilled engineers face in the world outside the classroom. You can’t expect to be an expert(专家)on the day you graduate. You have to learn as you go.”
Then,smiling, she added,“You will all pass this course, but remember that your education has just begun.’’
【小题1】What does the underlined word“restlessly”mean in the passage?
A.confidentIyB.proudlyC.excitedlyD.nervously
【小题2】Why did the professor design the final exam in such a way?
A.To make the students realize that they still had much to learn after graduation.
B.To find out whether the students could put what they had learned into practice.
C.To show that she had much more knowledge than her students in engineering.
D.To examine whether the students learned what they had been taught in her class.
【小题3】What can be the best title of the passage?
A.A Playful JokeB.A Lucky Chance

It’s important to learn about protecting our environment. Here is a 5R rule for us:
1. Reduce
If you want to reduce waste, you should use things wisely. Millions of trees are being cut down to make paper. If everyone uses a little paper carelessly and throw it out, soon we would not have any trees left. Other things are also being wasted, and people don’t know what to do with the waste in big cities. So it is necessary to reduce the waste
2. Reuse
You should always think of reusing the usable things before throwing them out. Give your clothes you do not use or the ones which are too small to the poor. With a family, you may pass on such clothes to younger brothers or sisters.
3.  Recycle
Bottles, cans and paper can easily be recycled. By doing so, we save lots of time and money. For example, coke cans are sent to a factory, where they are smashed flat(压平)and melted (融化) and the melted things are made for new coke cans.
4.  Recover
When you buy a box of apples, there may be a few rotten(腐烂的)apples. You have two choices: one is to throw the whole apple away, or you could cut off the rotten parts and eat the good parts. In this way, you are recovering the eatable parts of food.
5.  Repair
If one of the legs of your table is broken, you can repair it instead of throwing it away. If you want to change for better ones, It is better for you to sell the old things or give them to other people who can use them after doing some repair. It is true that North America is a “throw-away” society(社会). But the time has come to change our way of life so that we can protect our environment. Every one of us should try our best.
【小题1】_______ can be recycled.
A.Only hard thingsB.Many thingsC.Few soft thingsD.All things
【小题2】The “recover” rule mainly requires us _______.
A.to throw waste things away
B.to cover waste things with earth
C.to get back the useful parts
D.to throw the whole things away
【小题3】We can infer(推断) that the writer of this passage may live in _______.
A.ChinaB.JapanC.AustraliaD.America
【小题4】Which of the following is true?
A.We will have no resources(资源) of nature unless we can do with the waste.
B.Recycling is the best way to save resources.
C.If we waste less, we can save more resources of nature.
D.More things are wasted in developed countries than in developing ones.
