Instead, he has been told to wait another two years, until he is 18. The 16-year-old works for a small firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young people of his age is finding a job. Davids firm releases (推出) two new games for the fast growing computer market each month.But Davids biggest headache is what to do with his money. Even though he earns a lot, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage (抵押贷款) , or get credit cars. David got his job with the Liverpool- based company four months ago, a year after leaving school with six 0-levels and working for a time in a computer shop. “I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs, “ he said. David spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother 50 pounds a week. But most of his spare time is spent working.“ Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school,” he said. “But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway. “ David added: “ I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement (退休) is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear.”21. In what way is David different from people of his age?A. He often goes out with friends. B. He lives with his mother.C. He has a handsome income. D. He graduated with six 0-levels.22. What is one of the problems that David is facing now?A. He is too young to get a credit card. B. He has no time to learn driving.C. He has very little spare time. D. He will soon lose his job. 23. Why was David able to get the job in the company ?A. He had done well in all his exams. B. He had written some computer programs. C. He was good at paying computer games . D. He had learnt to use computers at school.24. Why did David decide to leave school and start working?A. He received lots of job offers. B. He was eager to help his mother. C. He lost interest in school studies. D. He wanted to earn his own living.B A rainforest is an area covered by tall trees with the total high rainfall spreading quite equally through the year and the temperature rarely dipping below 16 Centigrade. Rainforests have a great effect on the world environment because they can take in heat from the sun and adjust the climate. Without the forest cover, these area would reflect more heat into the atmosphere, warming the rest of the world. Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns, potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world.In the past hundred years, humans have begun destroying rainforests in search of three major resources (资源) : land for crops, wood for paper and other products, land for raising farm animals. This action affects the environment as a whole. For example, a lot of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) in the air comes from burning the rainforests. People obviously have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees but we will suffer much more than we will benefit.There are two main reasons for this. Firstly, when people cut down trees, generally they can only use the land for a year or two. Secondly, cutting large sections of rainforests may provide a good supply of wood right now, but in the long run it actually reduces the worlds wood supply.Rainforests are often called the worlds drug store. More than 25% of the medicines we use today come from plants in rainforests. However, fewer than 1% of rainforest plants have been examined for their medical value. It is extremely likely that our best chance to cure diseases lies somewhere in the worlds shrinking rainforests.25. Rainforests can help to adjust the climate because they _A. reflect more heat into the atmosphereB. bring about high rainfall throughout the worldC. rarely cause the temperature to drop lower than 16 Centigrade D. reduce the effect of heat from the sun on the earth26. What does the word “this” underlined in the third paragraph refer to?A. We will lose much more than we can gain.B. Humans have begun destroying rainforests.C. People have a strong desire for resources.D. Much carbon dioxide comes from burning rainforests.27. It can be inferred from the text that _.A. we can get enough resources without rainforestsB. there is great medicine potential in rainforestsC. we will grow fewer kinds of crops in the gained landD. the level of annual rainfall affects wind patterns28. What might be the best title for the text?A. How to save rainforests B. How to protect natureC. Rainforests and the environmentD.

Christopher Columbus MuseumD I know what youre thinking: pizza (比萨饼)? For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last nights leftovers in the a. m. if you want to.I know lots of women who skip breakfast (不吃早餐) , and they have a ton of different excuses for doing it. Some say they dont have time, others think theyre saving calories (卡路里), still others just dont like breakfast food.But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when youre trying to lose weight. “Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all,” says Katherine Brooking, R. D., who developed the super-easy eating plan for this years “ SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can be healthy if its loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small piece.Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success stories. Research shows that eating breakfast keeps you from overeating later in the day. Researcher at the University of Southern California found that breakfast skippers have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal.So eat something in the morning, anything. I know plenty of friends who end up having no breakfast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last nights leftovers - it may sound crazy, but if it works for you, do it! I find if i tell myself, “ You can always eat it tomorrow, “ I put away the leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try it. you may save yourself some pre-bedtime calories. And watch your body gain the fat-burning effects. 32. The word “leftovers” in paragraph 1 probably means _A. food remaining after a mealB. things left undoneC. meals made of vegetablesD. pizza topped with fruit 33. What can we infer from the text?A. Working women usually have breakfast in a hurry.B. Many people have wrong ideas about breakfast.C. There are some easy ways of cooking a meal.D. Eating vegetables helps save energy.34. According to the last paragraph, it is important to _ .A. eat something for breakfast B. be careful about what you eatC. heat up food before eating itD. eat calorie-controlled food35. The text is written mainly for those _.A. who go to work early B. who want to lose weightC. who stay up late D. who eat before sleep第二节 补全短文 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。You can take a selfie（自拍） with a hand-held digital camera or mobile phone and later share it on the Internet. 36 According to a recent survey, half of the interviewees admitted to taking a selfie while on holiday.
