AGeorge had just moved into the street and he felt strange that he was not wanted. He knew that perhaps the other boys were trying to get an idea of what kindof a boy he was.

He did not want to run with bad boys or get into something against the law to prove that he was strong . No！He must show what he was made of in a more helpful way.

You’ll discover original nature as you’ve never seen it before. The freedom to wander （闲逛）in the city or the wilds as you please is the key to the Iceland experience.Reykjavik, the capital of Iceland, is just a part of the Icelandic experience with its midnight sun or the magical landscapes mixed with ice and fire. Reykjavik has a population of around 170,000 and offers an interesting mix of culture and local village roots.Old accounts say the ancient gods themselves guided Iceland’s first settler to make his home in Reykjavik. He named the place Reykjavik (Steamy Bay)after the geothermal （地热）steam he saw, which today heats homes and outdoor swimming pools throughout the city, a pollution-free energy source that leaves the air very fresh, clean and clear.A beautiful river runs through the city limits, and so do fine parks and even wild outdoor areas. Against this backcloth（背景）of nature, Reykjavik has a packed program of familiar city joys too: art museums, several theaters, an opera house, a symphony orchestra and concerts meeting the needs of all ages and tastes.One must for all visitors is dining out on Icelandic specialties, including delicious seafood, ocean-fresh from the morning’s catch, highland lam b and unusual varieties of game. Its purely natural food is imaginatively served to delight the most discerning（内行的）of diners. Reykjavik is also famous as one of Europe’s hottest nightspots, where the action on the friendly pub and nightlife scene lasts right through the night. In the evening, the downtown area is filled with activity, reaching its peak on Friday or Saturday. The number of pubs, café, discos, and other nightspots in the downtown area is astonishing. There is a rich variety of places to go: European-style cafes, nightclubs with live entertainment, dance halls for seniors, sports-theme pubs with big TV screens, cafes that offer over 100 types of beer, an Irish pub, a Spanish café, a French wine bar.Walking distances are short downtown, and everything worth seeing outside the city center can be quickly and conveniently reached by bus. With its long, easy-going main street and l arge shopping mall, Iceland’s capital is a great place to shop too—with a bonus of tax-free shopping for visitors!A full range of accommodations is available in Reykjavik, from international-standard hotels with good conference facilities, through smaller hotels and comfortable guesthouses, to a campsite in the city’s biggest park.29. It can be learned from the passage the Reykiavik .A. was named by the ancient gods.B. was named by Iceland’s first settler.C. got its name from the visitors.D. was named after Iceland’s first settler.30. Which of the following subjects are mentioned in the fifth paragraph?A. Shopping and accommodations.B. City joys and backcloth of nature.C. Dining and nightspots.D. Transportation and landscapes.31. It can be inferred from the passage that .A. people living in Reykiavik seldom get heat from coal.B. hotel accommodation is so rare that visitors usually camp in the city’s biggestparks.C. all visitors must dine out while visiting Iceland.D. you have to walk a short distance if you want to go sightseeing outside the city.DHow to deal with waste has been a problem since humans started producing it. As more and more people choose to live close together in cities, the waste-disposal（处理）problem becomes increasingly difficult.During the eighteenth century, it was usual for several neighboring towns to get together to select a faraway spot as a dump site. Residents or trash haulers（垃圾拖运者）would transport household rubbish, rotted wood, and old possessions to the site. Periodically（定期的）some of the trash was burned and the rest was buried. The unpleasant sights and smells caused no problem because nobody lived close by.Factories, mills, and other industrial sites also had waste to be disposed of. Those located on rivers often just dumped the unwanted remains into the water. Others built huge burners with chimneys to deal with the problem.Several facts make these choices unacceptable to modern society. The first problem is space. Dumps, which are now called landfills, are most needed in heavily populated areas. Such areas rarely have empty land suitable for this purpose. Property is either too expensive or too close to residential（住宅区的）neighborhoods. Long-distance trash hauling has been a common practice, but once farm areas are refusing to accept rubbish from elsewhere, cheap land within trucking distance of major city areas is almost nonexistent.Awareness（意识）of pollution dangers has led to more strict rules of waste disposal. Pollution of rivers, ground water, land and air is a price people can no longer pay to get rid of waste. The amount of waste, however, continues to grow.Recycling efforts have become commonplace, and many towns require their people to take part. Even the most efficient recycling programs, however, can hope to deal with only about 50 per cent of a city’s reusable waste.32. The most suitable title for this passage would be .A. Places for Disposing WasteB. Waste Disposal ProblemC. Ways of Getting Rid of WasteD. Waste Pollution Dangers33. During the 18th century, people disposed their waste in many ways EXCEPT for____ .A. recycling itB. burying itC. burning itD. throwing it into rivers34. What can be inferred from the fourth paragraph?A. Farm areas accept waste from the city in modern society.B. There is cheap land to bury waste in modern society.C. Ways to deal with waste in modern society stay the same.D. It is impossible to find space to bury waste in modern society.35. The main purpose of writing this article is to .A. tell people a better way to get rid of the waste.B. warn people of the pollution dangers we are facing.C. call on people to take part in recycling programs.D. draw people’s attention to waste management.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
