Booking Online and Saving the EnvironmentWhen you are looking to book а holiday, it is unlikely that you will think about how green your booking decision is, but it is something that you should think about. By "green" we mean the impact on the environment.When looking to book a holiday, you will probably find that you are faced with two main decisions. The first is to go into a travel agency,pick up brochure (宣传册) , read through them and go back with just one and book with the travel agents directly or over the phone. The second is to go onto the Internet.The Internet holds many advantages over the travel agencies. The main one is convenience.You can go online to look at holidays at any time of the day. The travel agents, however, are usually very busy at times when people can actually go,i.e. lunch hours or at the weekend. You could use the telephone but you wouldn't be able to see the pictures or the details of the holidays, so you would probably be sent а brochure anyway.There are websites on the Internet that make shopping for holiday deals much easier.These websites are known as price comparison websites. They search through lots of different tour operators, and the results are displayed on one page, from which you can choose. Compared with the travel agencies, booking online is greener. The piles of brochures are definitely not green, and the amount of unnecessary paper used can't be good for the environment. In the days of the Internet, there is really no need for such a large amount of paper to be wasted. So booking online will not only save you time and effort, it will do а little bit to wards saving the environment, too!1.When planning holidays, few people will think about being green.A.TrueB.FalseC.

Apartments, town homes, and other areas with little or no land are being used for gardening. This method of gardening is becoming more common as the amount of land for gardening in cities is becoming smaller and smaller.Containers, hanging baskets and raised beds are examples of items people use to create a garden in a confined space. Some cities also offer a shared community garden for people who have no room to grow plants at home.Many types of plants can be grown in containers and baskets. Tomatoes and peppers,for instance, can grow in containers on windowsills(窗台) . Plants grown on a windowsill should usually receive at least six to eight hours of sunlight daily. Herbs are often grown in containers or baskets in the kitchen. They do not require much space and can be handy for cooking.People who want to grow more plants may use raised beds which are usually made of wood pieces and filled with a mixture of soil and fertilizers. They can be built on top of any hard surface, including roof tops. People like them because the beds often cost much less than most other methods of gardening.Community gardening could be an option for anyone who does not have space for a garden at home. Most cities that offer this will rent a small plot and to someone for a fee, or allow them to use it free of charge Instead of dividing the and into separate plots, some cities allow everyone in the neighborhood to share and work on the same land.This method could be beneficial for people in the neighborhood who share the passion for growing things.11.

WalkingI live about a half-mile from two gas stations, two miles from Walmart and less than two miles from the mall. These businesses are well within walking distance, but I don’t walk to any of them—I drive. This may seem surprising, but many Americans practice the same habit.According to the 2010 'National Bicycle and Walking Study' by the U. S. Department of Transportation, 72 percent of trips that are less than three miles in length are made by vehicle. Short distances can be easily traversed by foot rather than by car but only a quarter of Americans are choosing walking or biking as their means of transportation.A December 2012 study by Gregg L. Furie published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, says that about 25 percent of Americans participate in active transportation. Active transportation is defined as human-powered transportation, such as walking or biking. The results of the study showed that those who participated in active transportation had a lower BMI lower waist circumference, and lower odds of developing hypertension and diabetes.The 'Vital Signs Walking Among Adults' study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention encourages adults to get at least 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity. However, about half of all adults do not get the recommended amount of exercise, and about one-third reported no physical activity at all The study also showed that walkers were three times more likely to meet the recommended amount of exercise than non-walkers.In addition to the health benefits associated with active transportation, there are many less obvious benefits as well. The American Automobile Association’s(AAA) annual 'Your Driving Costs' study for 2012 revealed that the average annual cost for owning and operating a sedan is $ 8,946. Compared with essentially cost-free foottravel or the $120 annual cost of owning a bicycle, choosing active trans portation saves you money.Walking is an easily accessible activity that can be done anywhere anytime with anyone. By implementing walking as a primary form of commuting, people can increase their health and decrease their spending. Participating in human-powered transportation also removes some of the stresses of driving from people’s lives. By walking, people can avoid traffic congestion, stop signs, and road rage. Realistically, walking to work could not only be more beneficial, but also more practical than driving.So, put down the car keys, lace up your walking shoes and prepare yourself for a commute that few choose to experience--walking.From the first paragraph we can know that()A.the writer is too lazy to walk to workB.American people prefer driving to walking in spite of the short distanceC.the writer is very lucky to live not far away from gas stations and shopping mallsD.it is very convenient for the writer to go shopping12.From the 2010 'National icycle and Walking Study' we can see that. ()A.72% of people prefer to drive carsB.few people like to travel long distances by carsC.75 % of people choose driving cars as their means of transportationD.most people prefer to travel short distances on foot13.It’s reported that adults don’t do exercises at all. ()A.halfB.one quarterC.two-thirdsD.one-third14.Active transportation not only has health benefits, but also ()A.save moneyB.lower waist circumferenceC.reduces the risks of diabetesD.save time15.Walking does great good to people like()A.removing stressesB.avoiding traffic jamsC.increasing health and decreasing costsD.All of the above答案。
