It aims to help protect the environment, mainly through planting trees.The Green Belt Movement was started in 1977 by Wangari Maathai. When Wangari started the Green Belt Movement, she thought much about both people and the environment. She thought that if people grew the trees themselves, it would help them to understand the environment and develop their local cultures.Today, the Green Belt Movement works like this. Members from the Movement go to communities to talk about tree planting and starting nurseries (苗圃). If the local people are interested, they can join the Movement as a group. When they join, they receive a lot of information about how to prepare the soil (土壤), and collect and grow seeds. When the people know what to do, they can collect seeds, plant them into seedlings (幼苗). When the seedlings are big enough, they will be planted on farms. The Green Belt Movement pays the nursery money for each seedling that is still alive after three months.The Green Belt Movement now has over 6,000 community nurseries in Kenya, and many more in other African countries. Over the last 30 years, it has planted more than 30 million trees in parks and on farms.The Green Belt Movement also runs programs to help people start gardens and grow plants that are local to their area. This means that many communities can now take care of almost all their own food needs, and they can often make extra income (额外的收入) as well.In 2004, Wangari Maathai won the Nobel Peace Prize. Giving the prize to Wangari showed that peace doesn’t just mean stopping wars. It can also mean making the world a better place to live in.44.

The word ‘jumble’ means ‘mix’ in English. When people in England have things that they don't need, they donate them to an organization, for example, a village hall or a church. The donated things include books, clothes, toys, radios, tapes, everyday things and so on. Most of them are books, clothes and toys. The organization advertises in a local newspaper that they will organize a jumble sale somewhere at a certain time, usually at weekends. When people read the advertisement, they will come to the place and wait in line until the sale opens. There is usually a long line of people who are waiting to enter. Some entrance fee is asked for at the gate.Once people get in, they hurry to select things they like, from clothes to books. These things cost very little. You can spend very little money and get what you need. A good book may costyou ten or twenty pennies while sometimes you need to pay only one pound for five coats.When the sale ends, people go back home with what they have paid for. They are glad that they have bought what they need with so little money. The money collected during the sale will go to charities（慈善机构）.31.

They read the advertisementBSome members of an International Voluntary Organization (国际志愿组织) arrived at a small village of an African country. The villagers lived in small houses, which were built with wood and leaves. There was no school or hospital. The villagers didn't know how to grow crops. They only went to kill some wild animals and pick some fruits in the mountains as their food. The volunteers (志愿者) came here to help the village kids. They brought with them many textbooks and some medicine. They taught the kids how to play volleyball and also tried to learn their language so that they could talk with the kids better. Because of their hard work, the International Voluntary Organization gave the villagers the money to carry electricity to the village. When the lights in every house were shining, the villagers were very excited. They called them "the little suns". Then, they held a party to choose some lucky men who would invite the volunteers to go to their homes to see the beautiful night together with their families.35.

The lucky men could_____________.A. turn on the lights firstB. carry electricity to the villageC. be offered some money to carry electricityD. have a chance to invite the visitors to go to their homesCWhen we can see well, we do not think about our eyes often. It is only when we can not see perfectly that we come to see how important our eyes are.People who are nearsighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Many people who do a lot of close work, such as writing and reading, become nearsighted. Then they have to wear glasses in order to see distant things clearly.People who are farsighted face just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty reading a book unless they hold it at arm's length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses too.Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people's eyes become cloudy because of cataracts. Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.When night falls, colors become fainter to the eyes and finally disappear. After your eyes have grown used to the dark, you can see better if you use the side of your eyes rather than the centers. Sometimes, after dark, you see a small thing to one side of you, which seems to disappear if you turn your head in its direction. This is because when you turn your head, you are looking at the thing too directly. Men on guard duty sometimes think they see something movingto one side of them.
