But you might not know that sand is also a useful resource (资源).Sand is the second most-used resource in the worl d after water, the BBC reported. However, the UN said that sand is not limitl ess and that we might be running out of it.Sand is mad e up of very small pieces of rock, soil and minerals (矿物质). It can take tens of thousands of years to form.But now we are using sand more quickly than it is being formed. According to the BBC, we use about 15 billion tons of sand every year to buil d houses, roads and other things.People also put sand in the sea to make new islands. Singapore, for exampl e, is now 20 percent bigger than it was in 1965. Palm islands are three large man-mad e islands in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. They took 94 million cubic meters of sand to buil d.If people keep using this much sand, it will run out in many places. For exampl e, Vietnam may run out of construction (建造) sand by 2020, Live Science noted.Since people need so much sand, they are trying to mine (开采) more of it. But this is bad for the environment. Mining sand may cause beaches to disappear and more fl oods to happen in places close to the sea.

I heard the kids say to their mom(in French),"They're good!" I knew it was French.Because I can speak and understand it.Then I noticed how mom was picking the fruits.At first I thought she was really l ooking at the fruits because she was facing them. But then I noticed how much she had to feel and smell each one as she picked them out. And often asked her son if it looked okay, but looked way above where his face was. Putting what I saw together,I was sure she was blind.Both of the kids continued to help their mom pick out the fruits .The son made sure the fruits were not obviously bad, and the daughter handed them to her mom. The woman then felt each one and smil ed, and the daughter woul d put them into their basket .The kids were smiling while helping their mom pick the fruits out.Their smile and gentle manner moved me in a way that never happened before .It was so beautiful to see such young kids so willingly help. Most kids that age woul d be picking out candies or toys in a store for themselves, instead of helping their mom pick out fruits as the two kids did.It was great to witness the moment, but not so great because I didn’t t ell the mom how beautiful her children were in their language .this is what I regret to this day.53．The women and her kids came to the market to buy .A．fruits B．vegetabl es C．candies D．toys54．According to what he saw, the writer was sure the mother couldn’t.A．speak B．see C．smell D．hear55．The writer was moved because .A．the mother was brave to face her problems.B．the kids were polite and kind to each otherC．the mother was careful in picking out thingsD．the kids were so willing to help their motherI remember the green coat in my fifth and sixth grades.When I needed a new jacket, my mother asked what kind I wanted.

I went close to the jacket sl owly, as if it were a stranger.From the kitchen mother shouted that my jacket was in the wardrobe(衣柜). I rushed and pull ed at the clothes in the wardrobe, hoping the jacket on the bed wasn't for me but my brother. No luck, I wanted to cry because it was so ugly and so big. But I knew I'd have to wear it a long time before I'd have a new one. I looked at the jacket, like an enemy, thinking bad things before I took off my old and small jacket.I put the big jacket on. I stood in front of the mirror(镜子), turning right and left. I looked ugly. I threw it on my brother's bed and l ooked at it for a long time before I put it on and went out, smiling a "thank you" to my mom.The next day I wore it to school. At the morning break, my best friend, Steve, l ooked at me for a l ong time. The girls turned away to whisper. The teachers l ooked my way and talked about how foolish I l ooked in my new jacket. When it was time for the whol e school to get together on the playground, ______. Although they didn't say out loud, "Man, that's ugly!" I heard their talk and even laughter.And so I went, in my jacket. So embarrassed(尴尬的), so hurt, I couldn't even do my lessons the rest of the day. I received Cs on tests.I wore that thing for three years. All in those years no love came to me.I blamed(指责)that jacket for those bad years. I blamed my mother for her bad taste and her cheap ways. It was a sad time for the heart.

A rich and kind baker(面包师) sent some bread to twenty of the poorest children. He said to them, “In this basket, there is some bread for you. Each of you can have one loaf(一条面包) every day until the hard days end.”The impatient children couldn't wait to gather around the basket. They shouted and fought for the bread because each wished to have the largest loaf. At last they went away without even thanking the good gentleman. But Shirley, a poorly­dressed little girl, did not join them. Instead, she remained standing modestly in the distance. When the other children left, she took the smallest loaf left in the basket, kissed the gentleman's hand and went home.The next day the children were as rude as before. Poor shy Shirley still took the smallest loaf. When she got home, her mother cut the bread open. Many new shining pieces of silver fell out of it. Her mother was very surprised and said, “Take the money back to the good gentleman at once, for it must h ave got into the loaf by accident. Be quick, Shirley!

I went to Yunnan Provice with my parents last summer vacation. We spent a week there. We visited Kunming, Dali and Lijiang. We climbed Kunming Xishan, visited the Stone Forest, went to the Flower Market and went boating on Erhai Lake. We also tasted the delicious food like the crossing bridge noodles. It was really a wonderful trip. And I would never forget it.I am Ma Yue. Making a trip to Shanghai on May 18 was an experience which I would never forget. I arrived in Shanghai at about 2 o’clock, and immediately took a No. 5 bus to the sea area. The beautiful blue sea is so large that I couldn’t see the other side of it. After getting off the bus, I went straight to the shore. Taking off my shoes, I put my feet into the sea. The sea was cool, and walking in the sea was such a great joy that I didn’t want to stop. Then I collected shells. When it got dark, I sat on the shore, watching the sea. The night scene was simply marvelous! Finally I had to go back. It was an unforgettable day in my life.13．Lu Xin spent ________ in Yunnan.A．five days B．six days C．seven days D．eight days 14．Which place didn’t Lu Xin go when he was in Yunnan?A．The Stone Forest.

So at the age of 40, you’re not old at all. And your parents look the same age as you!You say to your shirt, “Turn red.” It changes from blue to red. In 2035, “smart clothes” can change the color or style as you like.You walk into the kitchen. You pick up the milk, but you hear the voice, “You shouldn’t drink that!” Your fridge（冰箱）remembers the information about the milk. It knows that the milk is not fresh. In 2035, every household appliance（家用电器）is like your servant.It’s time to go to work. In 2035, cars drive themselves. Just tell your “smart car” where to go. On the way, you can call a friend with your watch. Such “smart technology”（智能科技）is all around you. So will all these things come true? “All these will come true, and maybe even better.” says a scientist. I am looking forward to the new life.17．How do “you” look in the mirror in 2035?A．Young.

The sea level（海平面）will be much higher.We won’t travel by bus or by bike any more. Every family will have a small plane. No more expensive cars—it’l l be cheap to travel everywhere by plane, not only over land（陆地）, but also over the sea or even into space. Maybe there will be traffic jams（交通拥堵）in the air.Do you like long holidays?

Of course Jimmy liked his drum very much. He made a terrible（可怕的）noise with it, but his father didn’t mind. He was working during the day and Jimmy was already in bed when he got home in t he evening, so he couldn’t hear the noise.But one of the neighbors didn’t like the noise at all, so a few days later, she took a sharp（锋利的）knife and went to Jimmy’s house while he was hitting his drum.

They can be as important as what you will do in the future or as simple as what you will eat for breakfast. Any decision could be the turning point of your life.I made an important decision when I was in Grade 9.Before I made that decision I was one of the boys who tried too hard to act as an adult. I didn’t know that only kids want to show themselves as adults.I didn’t listen to my parents and teachers, and my grades became poor. Then came the high school entrance exam.At the turning point of my life, my mom wanted to have conversation with me. I wanted to turn it down but when I looked at her eyes. I felt I couldn’t refuse. Instea d of asking me to study hard, to my surprise, Mom just asked what I wanted to do in the future. Without thinking too much, I just said I would like to study hard.Mom smiled and asked again: “I asked: what do you want to do?”I never seriously thought about the question. So I kept silent.“Whether you want to go on studying or enter society,” she went on, “it is your own decision. Your life ought to be decided by you, not by anyone else, including me.” After saying that, she had tears in her eyes.For the first time in my life I was asked to make my own decision. I sat in my chair andthought about myself, my life and what kind of person I wanted to become.It took me what seemed to be ages to make the biggest decision so far in my life-I wanted to be a man who makes a difference to the world. To achieve that, I needed to study hard.The path to my future became clear to me. I didn’t act rebelliously(叛逆地) any more. With passion(激情) in my heart, I studied hard.Now, I’m 17. I’m in one of the best schools in my city, and in one of the best classes at the school and I am one of the best students in the class.Thanks to that decision. I have become what I am today.44．When did the writer make the important decision?A．After he was 17 years old. B．After he was in one of the best classes. C．When he was a pupil. D．When he was studying in Grade 9. 45．What was the writer like before the decision?A．His grades became poor. B．He tried too hard not to act as an adult. C．He was one of the top students in his class. D．He did what his teachers and his parents asked him to do.46．How did the writer make the decision?A．It was easy for him to make the decision.B．It was the second time he made the decision.C．He made the decision seriously.D．It was his mother that made the decision for him.47．Why did the writer make the decision?A．Because his teacher talked with him patiently.B．Because he wanted to act rebelliously.C．Because his mother asked him to study hard as usual.D．Because his mother asked him to think about his future by himself.48．Which of the following is TRUE?A．The writer made the decision that he should work hard.B．It took the writer several years to make the decision.C．After hearing his mothers’ words, the writer had tears in his eyes.D．At the turning point of his life, the writer wanted to have conversation with his mother.Like many other young boys, I didn’t know what I wanted to be when I was a middle school student. My mother advised me to be a teacher like her, but it seemed that was not interested in it. My father wanted me to be a pianist. However, I couldn’t stand spending all of my time in front of a piano.I got my goal（目标）after I went to high school. I got a part-time job at the school radio station and I found it was interesting. I loved to discuss school life and my favorite music with my schoolmates on the radio. I kept doing this job during the next six years. When I left the university, I got full-time- job at our local（当地的）radio station. My career（事业）began. My program is successful and I have a lot of fans.
