In the 13^th century, the famous Indian traveller, Marco Polo, travelled a long way to China. He saw many wonderful things. One of the things he discovered was that Chinese used paper money. In western countries, people did not use paper money until the 15^th century. However, people in China began to use paper money in the 7^th century.

    A Chinese man called Cai Lun invented paper almost 2,000 years ago. He made it from wood. He took the wood from trees and made it into paper. He then put these pieces of paper together and made them into a book.

    Now paper still comes from trees. We use a lot of paper every day. If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth. If there are no trees, there will be no paper. Every day, people throw away about 2,800 tons of paper in our city. It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper. This means that we are cutting nearly 48,000 trees every day. Since it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow, we must start using less paper now. If we don’t, we will not have enough time to grow more trees to take the place of those we use for paper.

    So how can we save paper? We can use both sides of every piece of paper, especially when we are making notes. We can also use cotton handkerchiefs（手帕） and paper ones. When we go shopping, we can use fewer paper bags. If the shop assistant does give us a paper bag, we can save it and refuse（拒绝）it later.

    Everyone can help to save paper. If we all think carefully, we can help protect trees. But we should do it now, before it is too late.

1.When he was in China, Marco Polo __________ .

   A. discovered Cai Lun invented paper         B. learned to make paper

   C. saw many wonderful things             D. read a lot of books

2. People in western countries first used paper money in the _________ century.

   A. 17^th               B. 15^th          C. 13^th              D. 7^th

3. About ________ tons of paper are thrown away every day in our city.

   A. 1,700         B. 2,000            C. 2,800            D. 48,000

4. Which of the following is the way of saving paper?

A. To use both sides of every piece of paper.  

B. To use the paper bags from shops more than once.

C. To use cotton handkerchiefs and paper ones.  D. All of the above.

We spent a few days in Paris last week. We visit the famous city quite regularly. After all, it only takes three hours from London to Pairs. It’s always a pleasure visiting places we really like, exploring areas we’ve never been.

The only unlucky thing this time was the weather. As soon as we got there the temperature reached almost 35 degrees C (which lasted until we left). It was so hot that Matthew just couldn’t stand it — for him, it wasn’t the most enjoyable trip. I felt sorry for him because every time we go there he has to put up with (忍受) my endless shopping spree (狂欢) …

Because of the heat, we ended up just having lots of ice-cream and drinks most of the time, although we managed to pay a few visits to the new Herme shop on rue de Vaugirard at least. It’s not as busy as the shop on rue Bonaparte so you can choose whatever you like without worrying about a queue behind you! I really enjoyed his bread this time as well as the cakes. And I must say that his Croissant aux Amandes and Bostock were simply the best I’ve ever had.

1.Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph?

2. The underlined word “stand” in the second paragraph means ____.

3. What can you know about Matthew from the second paragraph? 

4. The shops on rue Bonaparte ____.

5.What’s the best title for the passage?
