　The word“day” has two meanings. When we talk about the number of days in a year,  we are using “day” to mean 24 hours. But when we talk about day and night,  we are using“day” to mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a ball,  the sun can shine on only half of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning（旋轉(zhuǎn)）of the earth. At the equator（赤道）day and night are sometimes the same length（長度）. They are each twelve hours long. The sun rises at 6 o’clock in the morning and sets at 6 o’clock in the evening. For six months the North Pole is tilted（傾斜）toward the sun. In those months the Northern Hemisphere（半球）gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere. Days are longer than nights. South of the equator nights are longer than days. For the other six months the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Then the Southern Hemisphere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than nights. North of the equator nights are longer than days. Winter is the season of long nights. Summer is the season of long days.
小題1:When the Western Hemisphere is having day,  the Eastern Hemisphere is having ________.
A．both day and nightB．day
C．neither day nor nightD．night
小題2:A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by ________ of the earth.
A．the pushingB．the pullingC．the spinningD．the passing
小題3:．At the equator day is as long as night ________.

小題4:When the North Pole is tilted toward the sun,  the Northern Hemisphere gets ________ sunlight.
A．lessB．moreC．a(chǎn)llD．no
小題5:．When it is winter in China,  ________.
A．the USA is tilted toward the sun
B．the South Pole is tilted away from the sun
C．the North Pole is tilted toward the sun
D．the North Pole is tilted away from the sun

You may have known several kinds of police --- traffic police, fire police and street police. But have you ever heard of energy-saving(節(jié)能) policeman?
A group of 22 energy-saving policemen went to work last week in Beijing. They go around the city to see the use of energy in hotels, office buildings, shopping centers and other public places. One of their aims is to make sure that these places have set their air conditioning(空調(diào)) no cooler than 26℃.
They also set up a special phone line so that people can tell them which buildings fail to follow the rule.
“If everyone sets their air conditioning at 26℃, Beijing will save 400 million kilowatthour of electricity in one summer. That’s one-third of all the usages of the city in the season,” said a TV advertisement.
Other Chinese cities, like Wuhan in Hubei Province and Yangzhou in Jiansu Province, are going to follow Beijing’s steps in setting up a similar police team.
As one of the fastest developing countries, China is using a lot of energy. This has a great effect on the country’s environment and limited(有限的) energy.
From 1986 to 2005, the country experienced 20 warm winters continuously(連續(xù)). Numbers show that Chinese cities have to spend billions of yuan solving environmental problems every year.
At the beginning of this month, China made its first action plan to fight pollution. It aims to reduce energy usage by 20% and increase renewable(可更新的) energy up to 10% from 7% by 2010.
To introduce the public to a green life, last week Beijing held a show on energy-saving technology and productions. Environment-friendly machines, such as a vending machine that helps collect used bottles, have attracted lots of attention. “We want to tell people that there are certain ways to protect the environment. Each of us can find effective ways to do it on our daily lives,” said Liu Qianguang, an environmental engineer in Beijing.
小題1:The job of the energy-saving policemen is ______.
A．to set up a special phone line
B．to set the air conditioning cooler
C．to check the use of energy in public places
D．to make sure that more energy will be produced
小題2:Beijing uses ______ million kilowatt-hour electricity in summer.
A．1200.
B．800.
C．400.
D．133.
小題3:Which of the following years’ winters were all warm in China?
A．1968—1988.
B．1999—2003.
C．2002—2006.
D．2005—2009.
小題4:In the year 2010 China’s energy usages is going to be cut by ______.
A．7%.
B．10%.
C．17%.
D．20%.
小題5:According to Liu Qianguang, ______.
A．there are few ways to protect the environment
B．it’s difficult to find good ways to save energy
