13、 yellow trousers.“Are all these children yours?” he asks the woman.“Yes, they are.” she answers.“Do you always dress them in the same clothes ?” asks Mr. Brown.“Yes, ” answers the mother. “When we have four children, we dress them in the same clothes because we dont want to lose any of them. It is e
14、asy to see our children among other children because they are all wearing the same clothes.

18、en forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I dont agree with them. Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources(资源) , we are short of (缺乏) others, for example, fresh water(淡水). It is reported that we will
19、have no coal(煤) or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible. In our everyday life, we can
20、do many things to prevent waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps(水龙头) when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do
21、our best. 35.From the passage we know that some students often _ in the school. A. eat too much B. dont work hardC. waste things D. throw rubbish everywhere36. Which is not mentioned in this passage? A. Fresh water. B. Forest. C. Oil. D. Coal. 37.What may happen in 100 years? A. We may still have en
22、ough oil. B. We may still have enough coal. C. We may have a little oil. D. We may have no coal or oil to use. 38.Which of the following is right? A. Waste brings problems. B. Waste can bring no problem. C. China is rich in fresh water. D. Students never waste things. (C)“Cool” is a word with many m
23、eanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature(温度) that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings.“Cool” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.When you see a famous car in the street, maybe youll say, “Its cool.” You
24、may think “hes so cool ” when you see your favorite footballer.We all maximize(扩大) the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as “new” or “surprising”. Heres an interesting story we can use to show the way how the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the wa
25、terfall(瀑布) they had visited. On one students paper was just one sentence(句子), “Its so cool.” Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.But the story also shows a scarcity(缺乏) of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite importa
26、nt to keep some credibility(可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life colorful as the word “cool”? I can. And I think they are also very cool.39. We know that the word “cool” has had_. A. only one meaning B. no meaning C. many different meanings D. the same meaning40. In the passag

28、hing interestingC. can make your life colorfulD. may not be as cool as it seems (D)Now satellites(卫星) are helping to forecast(预报) the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere (大气), because this is where the weather forms (形成
29、). They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists(气象学家) can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change. Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they
30、 receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this. So the weather s
31、atellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead (提前). 43. Sa
