Why do we like drinking water from plastic bottles? Some people think it is healthy and clean. Others drink bottled water because it’s easy — you can carry it around with you. In hot countries, like Greece, we often buy bottles of cold water in the summer.
However, making lots of plastic is not a good idea for many reasons. First of all, we need a lot of oil for plastic products. We usually use oil as a source(資源) of energy. If we reduced the number of bottles we made, we wouldn’t need so much oil. Plastic bottles also pollute the environment. If we recycled all our plastic bottles, we wouldn’t need so much space for rubbish dumps. But in Greece, we don’t recycle much of the plastic we use. In 2006, Greeks recycled only about 10% of plastic waste. The rest became rubbish on land and in rivers and sees. So next time you want to throw away a plastic bottle in the litter bin, stop and think. If you recycled it, you would help the environment. But what can you do when there isn’t a recycling bin near you? Well, there are loes of useful ways that you can use your bottles again. For example, an empty bottle makes a great piggy bank for your pocket money, and if you cut a bottle in half, you will have a plant pot. Go green! You can make a difference.
小題1:What is not mentioned about bottled water in this passage?
A.It’s healthy. B.It’s clean.
C.It’s easy. D.It’s expensive.

小題4: Which is the best way to deal with used plastic bottles?
A.To recycle them. B.To make a piggy bank.
C.To make a plant pot. D.To drop them into the river.
小題5: The underlined part in this passage tells us “       ”.
A.To make a different life, you’d better go outside.
B.To look different, you’d better wear green clothes.
C.To protect the environment, you can do something.

試題分析:這是一篇環(huán)保類短文閱讀。短文從瓶裝水開始引入,談到塑料的制作需要石油,消耗了大量的能源,再到塑料瓶的處理,如果處理不好,有污染環(huán)境,最后倡議為綠色環(huán)保都行動起來。
小題1:細節(jié)理解題。從短文第一段這句話“Some people think it is healthy and clean. Others drink bottled water because it’s easy ”可知關(guān)于瓶裝水提到了“healthy and clean , easy”,三項內(nèi)容,而沒有提到瓶裝水 expensive(貴)。根據(jù)句子分析及四個選項的意思,故選D。
小題2:細節(jié)理解題。從短文第二段中這句話“we need a lot of oil for plastic products.”可知塑料產(chǎn)品是由石油( oil )制成的,A. energy 能量;B. oil 石油;C. rubbish   垃圾;D. plants 植物。根據(jù)句子分析及四個選項的意思,故選B。
小題3:細節(jié)理解題。從短文第二段中這句話“In 2006, Greeks recycled only about 10% of plastic waste. ”可知在2006年,希臘人只回收了大約塑料廢物的10%,所以有90%的成了垃圾。該句問的是,在2006年希臘多少塑料廢物變成了垃圾,故選D.90%。
小題4:細節(jié)理解題。從短文最后一段這句話“If you recycled it, you would help the environment. ”可知如果你回收了使用過的塑料瓶,那你就幫助保護了環(huán)境。A. To recycle them. 回收它們;  B. To make a piggy bank. 做一個存錢罐;C. To make a plant pot. 做一個植物的盆;D. To drop them into the river. 把它們?nèi)拥胶永,這種做法明顯不對。B.C.只是說了在沒有回收的情況下,怎么廢物利用。該句是問:處理使用過的塑料瓶,做好的方法是什么,故選A。
小題5:結(jié)構(gòu)分析題。這句話主要根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容來分析,短文講了廢舊塑料很污染環(huán)境。最后作者倡議為綠色環(huán)保行動起來,你會起很大作用。也就是說為了環(huán)保,你可以做些事情。A.B.D.選項意思都不符合,故選C。

JLetter 4
I just moved and I’m kind of shy, so how do I make new friends?
—Jessica, 11, Canada
Dr. Molly’s Answer ①
You should tell him about your dream and that if you work really hard, it might happen even though you started late. The sooner you tell your dad how you feel, the sooner you’ll be able to work on making your dream come true.
Dr. Molly’s Answer ②
Nobody knows you at your new school. You have nothing to lose, so gather up all your courage and go over to someone who looks friendly and introduce yourself. You can ask that person about your teacher or the other kids in your class to break the ice. Good luck!
Dr. Molly’s Answer ③
It’s better to tell your mom the truth than for her to find out another way. When you tell her, explain why you failed the test. Ask her if she can help you study in the future, so you’ll do better on your tests and also have time for the soccer you love.
Dr. Molly’s Answer ④

Everyone knows that chickens lay eggs(產(chǎn)卵). Most people know that all the other birds do as well. But have you ever thought about other animals that lay eggs? They include bees, snakes and some sea animals. When a mother lays eggs, many more babies can be born at once, or in a few days, because there is very little development inside the parent. Animals that do not lay eggs often have fewer babies. Animals lay many eggs because other animals may eat the babies. However, even though some of their babies are eaten, they will still have some more to continue their family.
Some animals that lay eggs do not take care of their young. Turtles come onto the beach and dig holes. Then they put their eggs in the sand and leave. A turtle mother can lay as many as 150 eggs. When the babies come out of the eggs, they must find their own way to the ocean. They must learn how to live on their own. Many young turtles get eaten by other animals.
Most eggs have an outside shell that keeps the growing animal inside safe. The egg shell also keeps the young animal from drying out. After the animal is fully developed, it comes out of the egg.
The animal grows bigger and bigger. Then it can have its own young.
小題1:Why do animals lay many eggs?
A.Because other animals may eat their babies.
B.Because they use their eggs for food.

D.Because they want to eat their babies.

How many things can you see in the night sky? A lot!      a clear evening you might see the Moon and some planets. And thousands of sparkling stars     , too.
You can see even      with a telescope. You might see stars where you only saw dark space before. You might see that many stars look larger than others. You might see that some stars      look white are really red or blue.
But scientists believe there are some things in the sky that we               . We can’t see them with the biggest telescope in the world, even when it is the clearest night of the year. That’s         they’re invisible. They’re the mysterious dead stars called black holes. You might find          hard to imagine that stars die. After all, our Sun is a star. Year after year we see it up in the sky, burning brightly, giving us heat and light. The Sun certainly doesn’t seem          getting old or weak. But stars do burn out and die after billions of years. As a star’s gases burn, they give off light and heat. But when the gas runs        , the star stops burning and begins to die.
So the next time you stare up at the night sky, remember: there’s more in the sky than that meets the eye.        amazing space it is!

Many people have a fear(害怕) of public speaking. According to a study, it has an influence on 3 in every 4 people. This fact is surprising and worrying, as most jobs require some speaking ability. The following will help you to make a speech better.
Write note cards. Write main ideas on your cards. Don’t write details. Put in some fun facts, questions, and other activities on the cards to share with the class. Don’t look at your note cards for a long time while speaking. If necessary, you’re only going to want to have a quick look at the card for information, not read every last word.
Smile at your class. When it comes time to speak, there’s nothing that draws your class into your speech than a good old-fashioned smile. Be happy, because you’re about to teach your class something they didn’t know before. Studies have shown that smiles are infections. That means once you smile, it’s hard for everyone else not to smile. So if you want your speech to go off well, smile. That’ll make everyone smile and maybe those smiles will make you actually smile.
Make eye contact. Nothing is more boring than listening to a speaker who looks at the floor or at note cards. Relax. Your class is made up of your friends and you talk to them all the time. Talk the same way now. have a look at every person in the classroom at least once. That way, everyone will feel like you’re communicating with them. Also, you’ll look like you know what you’re talking about.
Use hand motions. Move your hands along as you talk, using them to express your key points and keep the class interested. It will also lead your nervous energy into a better place.

Many people go to school for an education. Some learn languages, history, math and other subjects. Others go to school to learn a skill. School education is very important and useful. Yet, no one can learn everything from school. A teacher can not teach his students everything they want to know. So, much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.
Great people before us didn’t get everything from school .Their teachers only showed them the way. Edison did not even finish school. But they were all so successful because they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school . They would ask many questions as they read. They worked hard all their lives. Above all , they knew how to use their heads.

People are always afraid of making mistakes. But sometimes it’s not bad to make mistakes, and here is way.
At first, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things. It’s always good to try new things, because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never try new things, how can you improve? How can you create? The simple answer is, “You can’t.” Look around you, everything you see is the result of someone trying new things.
Another good thing about mistake is this: when you are making mistakes, you are learning. Consider this : Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb. When he was asked how he felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times, but rather had learnt 10,000 things that didn’t work.
Finally, when you make a mistake, you are that much closer to success. Why? Because you have said what you should say, and you have done what you should do. Every time you make a mistake, you are closer to success. But it doesn’t mean that you can make mistakes without thinking. Instead, when you try new things you have to think them over, so that you can keep away from some unnecessary mistakes.
We shouldn’t spend all our time and money on the only one way, but use them correctly. Because our time and money are limited(有限的) .
There is an old saying, “ If you are not making mistakes, you are not trying hard enough.” So go bravely and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And succeed.
小題1: If you are making a mistake, that means_______ .
A.you are careful.B.you’re kind.
C.you ‘re growing.D.you know nothing.
小題2: If you never try new things, you can’t _____ .
A.improveB.createC.spendD.A and B
小題3: After Edison failed 10,000 times, he ________ .
A.gave upB.invented the light bulb.
C.invented the computer.D.invented 10,000 new things.
小題4:When you make a mistake, you are closer to_______ .
A.timeB.moneyC.successD.everything
小題5:What’s the main idea of the passage?
A.Never make mistakes.
B.You can make mistakes without thinking.
C.Sometimes it’s good to make mistakes.
D.Making mistakes is terrible.
