第一节
A
If you feel at present that you don’t have enough friends in your life, one reason may be that you have let yourself bee too busy to make time for the relationships you already have. Starting and keeping friendship require effort and mitment.
Many of us let our lives bee so busy with work and other mitments that we don’t get around to scheduling time for pleasure and renewal (叙旧) with the friends, relatives and acquaintances we already have.
Making the effort to call your friends more regularly and to aept more of the invitations you receive from others can improve your social life in a hurry!
Are there any people you could call right now and be assured of a pleasant wele? Are there people that you could count on to help you in time of difficulty? Can you have close talks with them? Do you have fun when you are together? Are you happy to have them in your life?
If you haven’t seen much of them lately, is it because you have bee too busy? Have you grown apart? Was there an argument?
If the main reason you haven’t been getting together with the people you already know is that you have gotten too busy, take a good look at how you spend your time. pare it with your real values and priorities in life. Is your busy lifestyle really bringing you the quality of life that you want?
If you have bee too busy for friends, why has this happened? Are you seeking material toys in your life at the expense of relationships with other human beings? Have you allowed your time to be over-mitted because you never say ‘‘No” to anyone? Do you insist on doing things yourself that could be delegated to others? If so, why? Do you believe that everything depends on you?
Examine whether the way you are now spending your time aurately reflects your deepest values and priorities. Make sure that you schedule adequate time for the things that are truly most important to you.
If you really want to keep friends in your life, make a space in your schedule, and a space in your heart for them.

Lost wallets which contain a snapshot or picture of a baby are more likely to be returned to their owners, scientists have discovered.
Researchers left 240 wallets on the streets of Edinburgh last year to see how many were returned to their owners. Some of the wallets contained one of four photographs ? the baby, a cute little dog, a family and a portrait of an elderly couple. Other wallets contained a card suggesting the owner had recently made a charity donation, while a control sample contained nothing at all.
Professor Richard Wiseman, a psychologist who was in charge of the experiment, said 42 percent of the wallets were posted back in total. Those containing the picture of the infant, or the baby were most likely to bring about an honest reaction from the finder, with 88 percent being returned, followed by those containing pictures of the little dog at 53 percent. Of those featuring the family snapshot, 48 percent were sent to the return address and only 28 percent of those with the picture of the elderly couple. Wallets containing the charity cards and the control sample were least likely to be returned, with rates of 20 and 15 percent respectively.
Prof Wiseman, of the University of Hertfordshire, said: “The baby kicked off a caring feeling in people, which is not surprising from an evolutionary perspective. “We were amazed by the high percentage of wallets that came back.”
The wallets were planted at random about a quarter of a mile apart. Snapshots were inserted into a clear plastic window inside the wallets, none of which contained money.

46. The purpose of the text is mainly to ______.
A. give figures that show most wallets are returned if they don’t contain money
B. advice carrying children’s photos in wallets and avoid carrying cash
C. inform readers about the possibilities of different wallets being returned

A. observing reactions B. paring data
C. asking questions D. grouping different kinds
49. It can be inferred that ______.
A. Professor Wiseman hadn’t expected the results
B. dogs are more respected in Western countries than the elderly
C. people who return wallets are interested in psychology
D. the rate of return of lost wallets wouldn’t be so high if they contained money
50. Aording to the research, which of the following should be included in our wallets so that they could be returned if lost?
A. a charity card B. a toy dog C. a family photo D. much money

C
A dog might be man’s best friend but my dogs are more like my kids! I think everyone should experience the unconditional love of a dog but owning one is not for the nervous. It’s work ? especially when it es to the job of cleaning up their waste. When you clean up after your dogs your neighbors will love you for keeping those smelly land mines out of their yards. But there are even bigger benefits. You’ll not only be doing your part to keep bacteria out of your yard and neighborhood, you’re also keeping harmful microanisms away from our drinking water supply.
There are more than 77 million pet dogs in the United States and their waste is found in backyards, neighborhood parks, and the green areas that frequently line small waterways. When you don’t clean up after your dog, heavy rain can carry bacteria from the waste into drains. Dog waste left in parks and other such places can be swept directly into nearby streams. This affects the quality of the water in our creeks and streams but that’s not all. These small channels often empty directly into our local drinking water supply or the water where we boat or fish.
Dog waste contains harmful microanisms like roundworms and e. Coli that can be passed onto humans. This is why dog waste should not be used as fertilizer around your home. And it won’t fertilize the yard if you leave it behind either like other types of manure (肥料). Dogs don’t eat the same kinds of natural material that cattle, horses or even elephants eat. The waste from those animals is actually beneficial for your yard and garden.
You should always pick up after your dog and throw the waste in the trash can. Some smaller cities might prefer the waste to be washed down the toilet, but in cities where there are many dogs, it's best to send the waste to the landfill.
When you properly dispose of your dog’s waste you’ll be doing your part to keep harmful bacteria out of our yards, our neighborhoods, and our drinking water. Not to mention off the bottom of our shoes.

51. The main purpose of the article is to ______.
A. introduce ways of cleaning up dog waste
B. warn dog owners about the danger of dog waste
C. argue that it is the duty of the owners to clean up dog waste
D. criticize those who ignore their dog’s waste
52. What does Paragraph 1 tell us?
A. The author’s dog was as appealing to her as a child.
B. Dog waste can pollute drinking water.
C. Dog waste is more harmful than land mines.
D. Owning a dog is a nerve-wracking (极端令人头疼的) experience.
53. Which of the following shows the anization of the article?
A.1B.1C.12D.1
23232
43443
55545
54. The writer of the passage must be a ______.
A. biologist B. housewife C. environmentalist D. doctor
55. Which of the following statements about dog waste is TRUE?
A. It makes a good fertilizer.
B. The microanisms in dog waste are helpful to water.
C. Dog waste is more beneficial to soil than other kinds of animal waste.
D. It is better to wash dog waste down a toilet or bury it in a landfill.

Good morning, everyone,

I am Li Hua from Xingguang Middle School. The topic of my speech is “Let’s Ride Bicycles”.

Our city used to be a different one. We used to be able to look up and see a clear sky and take a walk without the fear of breathing in large amounts of pollution.
However, this is being a distant memory, which is getting fainter with every ing year. Air pollution is getting worse as the rush hour gets longer and longer. If this continues, what kind of city will we leave for the next generation? ks5u
We need to change. The current levels of air pollution and traffic jam can not go on. But there is a choice we can make that will prepare our city for the next generation, and for the better.
Let’s ride bicycles. Bicycles are environmentally friendly; bicycles are cost effective. Gas prices will only go up in the future with rising global demand. But bicycles can save us from the rocketing gasoline bill. They also lead to an active and healthy lifestyle. They will provide us with the exercise we need to keep fit. Let’s all live healthy, low-carbon lives. Let’s be responsible and take care of Beijing for the future.
Thank you.
