She gives us everything we need in our daily life. She is our Mother Earth.April 22 is Earth Day. The theme of this year is “Green Cities”.A green city is a healthy and pleasant place for people to live, according to the United Nations. A green city can get its energy fromregenerativesources like solar (太阳能的) and wind power. Also, it is connected by clean public transportation. Moreover, a green city is made up of facilities (设施) that can save energy and reduce waste.Around the world, many cities and countries have done well to build themselves in a green way. Chicago is well known for its green roof (屋顶) program. These roofs are covered with plants. The plants get a great amount of rainwater. Later, the water evaporates (蒸发) to help make the air cool and clean. So far, there are about 360 green roofs in Chicago, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency.Curitiba, Brazil, has great transportation(运输). It opened the world’s first bus rapid transit (BRT) system in 1974. BRT runs on special lanes. This makes sure that buses are on time even in traffic jams. With the help of BRT, the city has the lowest level of air pollution in Brazil. Today, many other countries have copied BRT, including China and Mexico. Singapore is home to the first zero-energy building in Southeast Asia. Zero energy means a building is able to create more energy than it uses. Zero-energy buildings work with solar panels (板) mainly on roofs. These panels can make electricity which powers the buildings. By 2030, Singapore plans to build 80 percent of its buildings like this.1.What is a green city according to the United Nations?A.A city with many green trees and flowers.B.A green place for people to live.C.A healthy and pleasant place for people to live.D.A place is green for people to live.2.The theme of Earth Day this year is “”.A.Green Roofs B.Green CitiesC.Reducing and Recycling D.Environmental Protection3.The underlined word “regenerative” in Paragraph 3 means “”.A.getting terrible things and smellsB.giving new life and freshnessC.reducing waste thingsD.producing old materials again4.From the passage, we learn that in the three cities .A.people are encouraged to grow plants on their roofsB.special lanes (车道) are designed to solve traffic jamsC.people make good use of solar and wind energyD.people are provided with a pleasant place to live5.The passage is mainly developed by .A.giving examples B.explaining reasonsC.listing suggestions D.showing different opinionsC15、It's not W ASTE until it is WASTED!With the World Environment Day coming, our school is now requiring every student to form a habit of sorting the waste. Here in our schoolyard we lay four different colors of rubbish bins for different kinds of rubbish. The red is for harmful waste; the blue is for waste that can be recycled (循环再用); the green is for kitchen waste; the yellow is for other waste.The followings are some instructions for you.Glass: Empty bottles without caps can be recycled to make new glass bottles.Warning: Mirrors and light bulbs (电灯泡) must not be included in the glass waste.Paper: Newspapers, magazines, boxes must be clean enough to be recycled.Warning: Paper tissues (餐纸) and wall paper are not recyclable as paper and should be kept separately.PMD waste: Packaging made of Plastic or Metal and Drink boxes are used to make new packaging.Warning: Plastic pots (e.g. yoghurt pots), plastic bags must not be included with the PMD waste.Harmful waste: out-of-date drugs, used batteries (电池), paint and oil…Besides, if you don't need your old bikes at all, our school volunteers will collect them.

The sun was probably the world’sfirst “clock”, except in the far north, where the Eskimos(爱斯基摩人) live. There, it’s dark most o f the winter, and light most of the summer. But in most of the world, people have used the sun for a clock. Even today, if you don’t have a clock, you still know that when the sun shines, it’s day, and when it’s dark, it’s night. The sun can also tell you if it’s morning, noon, or afternoon.People who live near the sea can tell time from the tides. In the daytime, for about six hours, the water rises higher and higher on the beach. And then it goes down and down for about six hours. The same thing happens again at night. There are two high tides and two low tides every 24 hours.Seamen on a ship learn how to tell time by looking at the moon and the stars. The whole sky is their clock.In some places in the world the wind comes up at about the same time every day or changes direction or stops blowing. In these places the wind can be the clock.A sand clock is an even better clock. If you had fine dry sand in a glass shaped like the one in the picture, you would have what is called an hourglass. The sand in the hourglass goes from the top part to the bottom part in exactly one hour. When the hourglass is turned over, the sand will take another hour to go back again.1.According to(根据) the passage, there are ____________ ways to tell time besides(除了)the clock and watch.A.3 B.4 C.5 D.72.The Eskimos in the far north can’t use the sun for a clock because __________.A.they know very little about the sunB.the sun there never goes down in winterC.it’s too cold for them to go out to watch the sunD.it has long dark winters and long light summers3.The underlined(下划线) word “tides” in the passage means _____________.A.洋流B.潮汐C.海啸D.波浪4.In which page of a newspaper can you most probably read this passage?A.News B.Science C.Business D.Advertisement5.What’s the bes t title for the passage?A.Different Ways to Tell Time B.Useful Machines to Tell TimeC.The History of the Clock D.The Development of the ClockE17、Last year, Webster and her family gave away 30 pairs of shoes, Webster, 13, is a seventh- grader at Calvary Christian school in the US.I never really thought that there were people that don’t wear shoes and don’t get to have them,” said Webster. Lastyear, Webster and her classmates and staff at the school and Calvary Church donated more than 1,000 of shoes.This year, the school and church are still holding the activity. They collect new or lightly used shoes to Soles4Souls. It is a global nonprofit organization that gives shoes and clothing to people in need for free.Head of the school Troy saw Sole4Souls as a good way to develop the charitable(慈善的) giving. ”It’s amazing how easy it is to give away what we have in our closet already. And it doesn’t hurt too much,” he said. ”it’s just growing generosity(慷慨) in our students. It’s helping them to think beyond themselves..”The goal this year is to collect 1,500 pairs of shoes, Troy said. A group of students including Webster is heading up the thing. They create posters to put up around their school yard and spread the word to church members and their neighbors.Taking part in Soles4 Souls has also changed the way Bella, 12, thinks of shoes. Last year, she gave five pairs–including some she wanted to keep. Now she is looking forward to doing it.1.Who may donate the shoes to people in need?A.The students B.The staff at the churchC.The workers and teachers at school D.All of the above2.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A.Webster and Bella gave away 45 pairs of shoes last year.B.Students only give away the shoes they have used before to the Sloes4SoulsC.Students can become generous when they take part in the charitable giving.D.It’s really hard to give away in clothes and shoes that we own.3.The nonprofit organization in the fourth paragraph means the organizations that are run(经营) . A.to ask people for the profitB.not for the purpose of making moneyC.by the governmentD.by some tradersF18、In Britain, the first day of the month of May is known as May Day. May day marks the end of the harsh(严酷的) winter months, welcomes the beginning of Summer, and optimistically looks forward to the bright and productive months.For their ancestors, largely in rural areas, it was a major annual festival and was celebrated(庆祝) through out the country, especially on the first day of May with music, dancing and games.How was May Day Celebrated in the past?May Day began early in the morning. People went out before sunrise in order to gather flowers and plants to make their houses and villages beautiful in the belief that the vegetation spirits(神灵) would bring good luck.A traditional May Day dance is Maypole Dancing,On May Day, people used to cut down young trees and stick them in the ground in the village to mark the arrival of summer.People danced around the tree poles in celebration of the end of winter and the start of the fine weather that would allow planting to begin. Maypoles are still a part of somevillage life and on May Day the villagers dance around it.May Day celebrations have their origins(起源) in the Roman festival of Flora, goddess(女神) of fruit and flowers, which marked the beginning of summer. So the highlight of the day was the crowning(为…加冕) of the May Queen(女皇), the human replica (模型) of Flora. By tradition she took no part in the games or dancing, but sat like a queen in aflower-decked chair to watch her 'subjects'.Ever since 1978, for the convenience of the general public, many May Day activities have now been moved to the new May Day holiday on the first Monday of the month. This Monday is a bank holiday, a day off school and work. There are more intereting celebrations on this day.1.In the old days, most people in Britain made their living by .A.fishing B.farming C.working in factories2.People in Britain celebrate May Day is to express theirA.pleasure and hope B.thanks and harvest C.freedom and new life3.Britain’s May Day holiday is on in 2010.A.May 1st B.May 3rd C.May 5th4.What is not mentioned in this passage?A.Special food. B.Special custom. C.Special activity.5.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.Only children can take part in the Maypole Dancing.B.The queen of the UK came to watch her “subjects”.C.Children needn’t go to school on May Day holiday now.Ⅴ.书面表达19、你马上就要初中毕业了,恩师难忘,请你根据下面的提示,向大家介绍你的一位老师(Ms Wang)。

He had no hobbies but just took care of his family.For 22 years, since I left home for college, my father called me every Sunday at 9:00 am. He was always interested in my life-how my family was doing. The calls even came when he and my mother were in Australia, England or Florida.Nine years ago when I bought me first house, my father, 67 years old, spent eight hours a day for three days, painting my house. He would not allow me to pay someone to have it done. All he asked was a glass of iced tea, and that I hold a paintbrush for him and talk to him. But I was too busy, for I had a law practice to run, and I could not take the time to hold the paintbrush, or talk to my father.Five years ago, my 71-year-old father spent five hours putting together a swing set(秋千)for my daughter. Again, all he asked was that I get him a glass of iced tea, and talk to him, but again, I had laundry to do, and the house to clean.The morning on Sunday, January 16, 1995, my father telephoned me as usual, this time he had seemed to have forgotten some things we had discussed the week before. I had to get to church, and I cut the conversation short.The call came at 4:40 am. That day my father was sent to hospital in Florida. I got on a plane immediately, and I vowed(发誓)that when I arrived, I would make up for the lost time, and have a nice long talk with him ad really get to know him.I arrived in Florida at 1:00 am, but my father had passed away at 9:12 pm. This time it was he who did not have time to talk, or time to wait for me.In the years since his death I have learnt much about my father, and even more about every single day.66.
