     Smoking in indoor public places including public working places, public transport vehicles and some
other special outdoor working places has been banned (禁止) in China since January 2011. Let's look at the
following advantages of banning smoking.
     First, banning smoking will not only help in saving smokers from health problems and diseases, but will
also be good for passive (被動(dòng)) smokers. When the smoker is smoking in a restaurant, the people around
him are sure to breathe in the smoke and suffer from the diseases an active smoker gets. If smoking is banned,
spread of these diseases can be controlled.
     Next, banning smoking will put stress on smokers to give up. Since a smoker is prevented from smoking,
he will learn how to live without smoking for long hours. When a smoker doesn't smell or see anybody around
him smoking, it might reduce his wish to smoke too. As a result, people have to give up smoking.
     Smoking in public places influences non-smokers to start smoking, especially adolescents. When teens
see people around them smoking, they will follow them easily. Thus the number of teen smokers will increase.
Also asthma (哮喘) and other problems are often seen in children living around smokers. So if it is banned, these places will become safe for children and teenagers.
     Looking from the economic point of view, smoking should be banned to increase work productivity (生產(chǎn)率). Employees (雇員) who smoke usually take breaks to smoke while working. So the number of hours they
put in their work is smaller.
     If you see from the environment point of view, smoking should be banned. Smoking causes air pollution.
If it is banned, it will help keep the environment from getting worse.
1. _______ doesn't belong to a non-smoking place.
A. A field
B. A hospital
C. A library
D. A restaurant
2. The second paragraph mainly wants to tell us _______.
A. banning smoking is good for restaurants
B. banning smoking is good for non-smokers
C. banning smoking is good for spread of diseases
D. banning smoking is good for active smokers and passive smokers
3. How many advantages of banning smoking are mentioned in this passage?
A. Two.
B. Four.
C. Five.
D. Six.
4. According to the text, the underlined word "adolescents" means _______.
A. men
B. women
C. adults
D. teenagers
5. Which of the following statements in NOT true?
A. If smoking is banned, work productivity will increase.
B. If smoking is banned, the number of teen smokers will be larger.
C. If smoking is banned, it will make the environment become better.
D. If smoking is banned, smokers will learn how to live without smoking.

     The earth is our home; we must take care of it. This means keeping the land, air and water clean.
Pollution is a dirty word. To pollute means to make things unfit or unclean to use. Pollution comes in
many ways. We see it, smell it, taste it and drink it. Pollution is beginning to threaten (威脅) our health,
our happiness and our life.
     Man has been polluting the earth from the time he first made fire, washed his clothes in the river and
threw his waste on the ground. When land was used up or water became dirty, men moved on to another
place. At first, the problem was not so serious because there was plenty of clean air, land and water.
There weren't so many people then and their wants were fewer. All the dirty things could be absorbed
(吸收) by nature and soon covered over. But this is no longer true. The increase of population and the
development of industry(工業(yè))have changed that. Man is slowly poisoning (毒害) his environment.
     Through the use of poison, man has polluted the land, killing the animals. By putting dirty water and
chemicals into rivers and lakes we have polluted our drinking water, killing the fish.
     Our increasing population is part of the problem. More people, more waste.
     Where is this all to end? Are we turning the world into a big rubbish dump (堆存處), or is there any
hope that we can get rid of (擺脫, 除去) the pollution? Luckily, millions of people have been warned of
the danger of pollution. Large numbers of people are now working hard to bring pollution under control.
1. Which of the following sentences is NOT true according to the passage?
A. We live on the earth, so we should look after it.
B. To pollute means to make air, water and land unfit for use.
C. All the waste produced by modern industry can be absorbed.
D. Man is now fighting against different kinds of pollution.
2. In this passage the word "chemicals" means ______.
A. 化學(xué)
B. 化學(xué)物質(zhì)
C. 化學(xué)的
D. 醫(yī)學(xué)的
3. Through the uncontrolled use of poison man has ______.
A. made the drinking water dirty
B. polluted the land
C. killed the animals
D. all of the above
4. From the sentences "More people, more waste", we know that ______.
A. because of the increase of population and the development of industry, more and more waste is
     produced
B. we need more people, not more waste
C. there isn't any hope that we can get rid of the pollution
D. more people have been warned of the danger of more waste
5. From the passage we can know that now man ______.
A. doesn't know how to control pollution
B. still doesn't realize how serious pollution is
C. is doing something to control pollution
D. begins to understand the pollution

     Japanese students work very hard but many are unhappy, because they feel heavy pressures  from
theirparents. Most students are always told to study hard so that they can live a wonderful life. However,
 many of the students have tried very hard at school but have failed their exams. These students feel  sad,
and they don't want to go to school anymore. They easily become dropouts  (輟學(xué)者). Such  students
 may join the groups of trouble-makers and turn to crime (犯罪).
    Though most Japanese parents are worried about their children, they do not help them in any  way.

only help the students to pass their exams and never teach the students how to understand life and the
world.
    Many Japanese schools usually have rules about everything, from the students' hair to their clothes and
the things in their schoolbags. Many child psychologists now think that the rules are too strict and harmful (有傷害的) to the feelings of the students. Almost 40% of the students said that no one had  taught them
how to get on with others, how to tell right from wrong, or  how to show  love for  others,  even  for  their
parents.

     If you go to a fast food restaurant, you will probably see a lot of teenagers. Today, many teenagers
are overweight, and some of this because of their bad eating habits. Most teenagers love food with a lot
of fat, oil, salt, and sugar. People often call this kind of food "junk food".
     But bad eating habits go beyond fast food. We find many teenagers eat unhealthily. Some don't have
breakfast before they go to school. During the day, some don't have a proper meal for lunch. In a recent

salt, sugar, or fat.

     Teenagers shouldn't eat food with too much salt. Salt can cause high blood pressure in the future.
     Teenagers should eat food with less fat, oil, and sugar.
     Teenagers need to eat some fruits and vegetables every day. fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins
and have little fat.

     In some places in North Africa, great cities once stood. There were   gardens and trees and grass.
