How much will a couple married in the year of the dog pay for Dingsheng Lantern Fair admission?A. 50 yuan B. 100 yuan C. 200 yuan D. 150 yuanBBack in freshman year, I found myself wondering whether it should really be called “volunteering” if students only do it because they have to.I started volunteering atWeyrichHealthCenter, helping elderly patients with daily tasks. The more I did these tasks, the more disconnected I felt from the seniors. Though I felt bad for them, I did not want to municate with them.Then one rainy day, I met Colonel Hemsworth. He invited me to his table and asked for some pany. I regarded this as another boring task. However, listening to his stories, I learned that he was a brilliant war veteran(老兵), and I found his tales interesting.After my brief talk with the Colonel, I realized that I shared mon characters with all the seniors.I felt like an oxygen molecule(分子)ready to form a relationshiprather than an isolated(孤立的) gas.I met with many learned senior citizens who shared their experiences and wisdom. No longer did I walk aimlessly down the hallways. I found myself enjoying talking with these people as I learned their histories. Why hadnt I realized sooner that volunteer work could enlighten me?Some argue that volunteering and working for change does not help. However, they fail to realize that the world is constantly changing and humans must adapt. My experience at Weyrich Health Center has taught me that refusing to change ones views and accept new ones leads to short-term goals that finally disappear. munication with others is an important part of life. Volunteering is not just a requirement or a way to improve your resume, it is a time for service and personal growth.Now I enjoy volunteering my time surrounded by seniors who bring history alive for me. By municating with them, I have developed into a more dynamic person.24. Whats the authors attitude towards volunteering at first?A. Positive.B. Doubtful.C.Satisfied. D. Unwilling.25. Why did Colonel Hems worth invite the author to his table?A. He liked the author very much. B. He wanted to work withthe author.C. He wanted the author to acpany him. D. He planned to teach the author something.26. What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Para.4?A. The author would like to be an oxygen molecule.B. The author had desire to municate with the seniors.C. The author wanted to do a chemical experiment with gas.D. The author imagined himself being part of an isolated gas.27. What does the sixth paragraph mainly tell us?A. Other peoples attitude towards volunteering. B. The importance of municating with others.C. The lessons the author has learned from volunteering.D. The important meaning of humans adapting to changes.CRecycling programs usually give new life to materials like paper, metal, plastic and glass. But a program in the eastern America is recycling shellfish to help the Chesapeake Bay.Oysters(牡蛎) is known to help clean the water. Besides, generation upon generation of oysters form reefs, which provide homes for fish and crabs.Oysters are a tradition in the Chesapeake. They are good for the bay. But environmental damage and too much harvesting have cut the oyster population there.An organization called the Oyster Recovery Partnership started the recycling program earlier this year. Baby oysters need to attach themselves to a shell or other hard surface as they grow. Scientists are using recycled shells as part of an oyster reproduction(繁殖) program. More than 15 restaurants, seafood dealers and other businesses have joined the Oyster Recovery Partnership. Maryland and Virginia are also taking part in the program.One of the restaurants involved is in Washington. Oysters are a specialty at the Old Ebbitt Grill. Its manager Christian Guidi says they serve about 1,500 to 3,000 oysters a day and that obviously does create a lot of shells.But the restaurant no longer throws away all those shells. The Oyster Recovery Partnership takes them away for recycling.First the shells get washed. Then they go to the Center for Environmental Science at the University of Maryland for further processing.The shells are placed in tanks with hundreds of millions of oyster lavae(幼体). In this way, the baby oysters can be raised until they have grown big enough to be moved to the Chesapeake.This year, the Oyster Recovery Partnership helped produce and plant more than 450 million baby oysters in the bay.Don Meritt heads the oyster recovery program at the University of Maryland. He says the goal is not just to increase the oyster population. Their real goal is to try to restore healthy oysters to the Chesapeake Bay so that they can help restore a healthy Chesapeake Bay.28.

To help them to grow.B. To provide more nutrition.C. To make the tank like sea.D. To serve as homes for them.31. What can we learn from the text?A. Recycled shells can improve the environment.B. The number of oysters has increased in the bay.C. The oysters are popular in cities like Washington.D. The oyster recovery program needs more support.DFor many people who live in cities, parks are an important landscape. They provide a place for people to relax and play sports, as well as a shelter from the often severe environment of a city. What people often overlook is that parks also provide considerable environmental benefits.One benefit of parks is that plants absorb carbon dioxide and give off oxygen. According to one study, an acre of trees can absorb the same amount of carbon dioxide that a typical car emits in 11,000 miles of driving. Parks also make cities cooler. Scientists have long noted what is called the Urban Heat Island Effect: building materials such as metal and concrete absorb much more of the suns heat and release it much more quickly than trees and grass. Because city landscapes contain so much of these building materials, cities are usually warmer than surrounding rural areas. Parks and other green spaces help to lessen the Urban Heat Island Effect.Unfortunately, many cities cannot easily create more parks. However, cities could benefit from many of the positive effects of parks by encouraging citizens to create another type of green space: rooftop gardens. While most people would not think of starting a garden on their roof, human beings have been planting gardens on rooftops for thousands of years. Some rooftop gardens are simple container gardens that anyone can create with the investment of a few hundred dollars and a few hours of work.Rooftop gardens provide many of the same benefits as other urban parks and garden spaces, but without taking up the much-needed land. In the summer, rooftop gardens prevent buildings from absorbing heat from the sun, which can significantly reduce cooling bills. In the winter, gardens help control the heat that materials like brick and concrete release so quickly, leading to savings on heating bills. Rooftop vegetables and herb gardens can also provide fresh food for city settlers, making their diets healthier. Rooftop gardens are not only something everyone can enjoy but also a smart environmental investment. 32.What does the underlined word “emits” in the second paragraph probably mean _.A. Gives outB. Takes up C. Carries away D. Breathes in 33.Which of the following contributes to the Urban Heat Island Effect? A. More building materials. B. More trees and grass. C. More parking lots. D. More rooftop gardens. 34.When it es to rooftop gardens, what can be learnt from the passage? A. They make people much happier. B. They provide more benefits than urban parks. C. They help to save money and keep a healthy diet. D. They have bee very popular in recent years. 35. Whats the authors attitude towards rooftop gardens? A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Critical. D. Objective.第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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。Some people love traveling while some prefer to stay at home. If you dont love traveling, you can make a change now.
