would be very exciting to be a reporter on a newspaper. as soon as a reporters boss gives him a story to write, the reporter is on the job. he keeps his mind on what he is going to do. he does not begin writing the story until he knows what he should find out. he must know why he should write the story.at times a reporter must search hard to find all of the facts he needs for a story. the facts may not be right under his nose. to find the facts, he has to recognize important details. while gathering information for a story, he asks himself questions：should i use this information? is this an important fact?a reporter writes the story as fast as he can, so it can go right away into the newspaper. the story also needs a headline, which tells very quickly what the news story is about and is printed bigger and blacker than the rest of the news story.every big newspaper has many reporters，because many stories are needed in the newspaper. would you like to be one？25a reporter writes the

gather information for a news story cour environment isnt as green and beautiful as it should be. there are steel(钢铁) monsters blocking out the sun, blowing out dangerous smoke, and letting out poisonous chemicals into rivers, cars producing harmful waste gas, people throwing out waste in a wrong way and all other kinds of sources that ruin the planet. facing current environmental problems, people need to do their best to save the earth.you can see many big garbage dustbins in the streets. theyre not there for a show, but for you to drop your waste. we should realize that what we do does count. so next time you get that urge to throw gum or a chocolate package out of the car window, or “accidentally” drop as you walk down the street, ask yourself how much waste youve been contributing to the environment with that bad habit going on for years.at home, the first thing we can do to protect the environment is avoid letting water run continuously and make sure that taps（水龙头）are not leaky（漏的），which would help greatly in scrimping. another is to use energy-saving lights, and turn them off before you leave the rooms. it is not only energy-saving, but also cuts down electricity costs.recycling is a method to make items reusable. many things you want to throw out can be made into new products through the reproducing process. use your imagination to come up with ways on things that you can use again.pass the message of simple ways to save the environment on to kids. starting with kids is a good way of teaching the message early in their lives, in the hope that they can carry it forward as they grow older.with environmental protection awareness in mind, we can do what we can, for the results are to have a big effect on the planet. as long as we do our part, the world is one small step closer to being saved.29 in the first paragraph the author uses “steel monsters” to describe_.a. huge buildings b. high mountainsc. big factories d. characters in fairy stories30from the fifth paragraph, we can know that _.a. protecting the environment begins with small choresb. protecting the environment should start from childhood.c. wonderful life comes from environmental protectiond. protecting the environment benefits the country and the people31which of the following is not true?a. the more people do their part, the greener the environment will be.b. selling what you dont want any more is a kind of recycling.c. to protect the environment may help you save some money.d. your bad habits for the environment are a valuable contribution.32the passage is mainly about_.a. the use of garbage dustbinsb. how to save water and electricityc. how to save the environmentd. our current environmental problems devery country has its heroes.the heroes are the people the nation and especially the young people admire.if you get a list of the heroes of a nation,it will tell you the potential(潜力) of that nation.today in america,if you ask the high school students to list their heroes,their choices would probably fall into three groups.the first group of heroes would be the rock starsthe people connected with rock music.there is no doubt that such people do have talent(才能).but one wonders if one should treat rock stars as a model.the rock stars too often are mixed with drugs and their personal life is not all that good.the rock stars are rich and wear the latest fashion styles.however,one should seek more in a hero than such things as money and good clothes.a second type of hero for the american youth is the sports star.again you have a person who has a great ability in one areasports.however,too often the personal life of the sports star is a bit of disorder.too frequently drugs and drinking are a part of life of the sports star.a third type of hero is the tv or movie star.this person may have lots of acting talent and is quite handsome.however,the personal life of too many actors is quite sad and they should not be held up as a model of young people.today,the rock star,the athlete and the actor all have become the models of the youth in america.really,do you hear a young person say that his hero is a doctor,a teacher or a scientist?these people are not rich and do not wear fashionable clothes.however,they are talented people who work hard to make the world a better place for everyone.what is really sad is that the young try to imitate(模仿) their heroes.they like to wear the same clothes and follow their styles.if the heroes of today for the american young people are limited only to rock stars,athletes and actors,the future does not look too bright.33the last sentence of the first paragraph implies that .a.if a nation has a lot of heroes,it will be strongb.heroes of a nation will make the nation itselfc.what the people admire will make the future of the nationd.if you want to be a hero,you must admire the hero34according to the writer,people should admire those .a.who are rich and wear the latest fashion clothesb.who can express peoples feelingsc.whose personal life is goodd.who work for the interests of the people35what is the writers attitude towards american youths admiration?a.he understands it.b.he criticizes it.c.he is angry about it.d.he is uninterested in it.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a students life is never easy. 36 _ a lot of
