The schools headmaster noticed it in an artists garden as he drove past one day, and thought it would be perfect for his school. “I knew everyone would love it,” he said, “because our basketball team is known as the Grangetown Giraffes, and they wear giraffes on their shirts.

Green collars say no when work is life and life is work. They choose to get out of the fast lane(车道), and explore new ways of living “green”.Living green doesnt mean someone is working as an environmentalist, biologist or scientist. Instead it is more of a lifestyle choice. A typical green collar is well educated like a white-collar but physically tough like a blue-collar, likely born in the 70s or 80s of the last century and living in one of Chinas big cities, with a monthly income well above 5,000 yuan(about US $700).The life of a green collar may go something like this: Turn off the mobile phone after work, eat only healthy food rich in vitamins, go on hikes every weekend, and like to help the underprivileged.Green collars even have their own club. In Beijing, the Green Collar Club is for people who share a “be happy, healthy and helpful” spirit. The club often holds charity parties and uses the donations for environmental protection and poverty relief(摆脱贫困) projects in China.“They are successful in their careers, but do not miss the pleasures in life. They have a lot of money, but do not fall slave to it.” said Zuo Shiguang, one of the founding members of the club.63. What is the passage mainly about?A. Differences between white-and-blue collars and green collars.B. The increasing awareness(意识) of environmental protection.C. New trends of life in Chinas big cities.D. The lifestyle of green collars.64.

However, they talk about a lot, like their newest computer, how to repair their car, or even business.Talk might move to the best place to find fish or women, jump to computer games, then continue to the sport of the season. They also like to tell jokes each other and spend a fair amount of time playing one-up and boasting (吹牛). Men seldom call each other to chat.When man meets woman, he usually wants to make a good impression. Many single men try hard to carry on amusing, fun, and pleasant conversations. They use conversation to discover her interests and feelings in order to learn how to be attractive to her.Some men, either out of nervousness or ignorance, spend most of the time talking about themselves, often appearing to brag about their achievements or talk endlessly about their problems or work. Even the quietest man talks to his woman when love is new.When women get together, they talk about feelings and relationships, their work and their family. They enjoy talking but also want the give and take of talk, then listen. Women often call each other to chat. Conversation is an important part of most womens 1ives. As relationships progress, however, many a man turns on the television and forgets how to talk. This raises anger and cry from his woman partner who says, “You never talk to me anymore.” Some men start talking. Many, however, mainly discuss their own achievements and problems. When the woman starts talking about her favorite subjects: feelings, family, relationships, friends and her work, many men lose interest or bring the conversation back to themselves. Pretty soon, the man is back to staring at the television each night, wondering where his relationship has gone. The woman is talking to her friends, mom, sister, or neighbor, often about that very relationship and how she is hurting.67. What can we know about men from the first two paragraphs?A. They like to talk about practical matters.B. They are willing to expose (暴露) their inner thoughts.C. They prefer to take adventurous travels.D. They often call each other to chat about work.68. Which of the following can replace the underlined part “brag about” in Paragraph 4?A. Show off. B. Dream about. C. Put forward.D. Care for.69. What is the same topic in both mens and womens talk?A. Family. B. Work. C. Friends. D. Jokes.70. What is the best title of this passage?A. How a man makes a good impression to a woman.B. Good relationship between men and women.C. Talking, the womens main tool in communication. D. Men talk;
