Although my thoughts were only on speed, the checkout line I was standing in wasnt moving as quickly as I wanted, and I glanced toward the cashier.There stood a man in his seventies, wearing glasses and a nice smile. I thought, well, hes an old guy!For the next few minutes I watched him. He greeted every customer before scanning the items. Sure, his words were the usual, “Hows it going?” But he did something differenthe actually listened to people. Then he would respond to what they had said and engage them in brief conversation.I thought it was odd. I have grown accustomed to people asking me how I was doing simply out of robotic conversational habit. After a while, you dont give any thought to the question and just mumble something back. I could say, “I just found out I have six months to live,” and someone would reply, “Have a great day!”But that wasnt the end.He gave them the change, walked around the counter, and extended his right hand in an act of friendship. He looked the customers in the eyes. “I sure want to thank you for shopping here today,” he told them. “You have a great day. Bye-bye.”The looks on the faces of the customers were priceless. There were smiles and some sheepish grins. All had been touched by his simple gesture-and in a place they never expected. They would gather their things and walk out, smiling.Of course, he did the same to me and I got to know his name. Marty.Who was that guy? It was as if Sam Walton had come back from the dead and invaded this old guys body.I had never walked away from that shop feeling like that.56The checkout line the writer was standing in moved slower than expected because .Athe cashier did more than scanning the items Bthere were some big purchasesCthe cashier couldnt work as fast as othersDthe writer was not patient enough57According to the writer, when common people ask you “Hows it going?” .Athey are just practicing their conversation ability Bthey dont really care what you may answerCthey are inquiring about your private informationDthey dont expect to hear any negative answers58What was most customers reaction to Martys behaviors?AThey thought it priceless.BThey felt somewhat offended.CThey thought it awful and odd.DThey were in some way moved.59What can we infer about Sam Walton?AHe might be Martys father or grandfather.BHe might have died while working in the market.CHe might be friendly and devoted to Wal-Mary.DHe might have come back from the dead once before.60What does the writer intend to express through the text?AOur everyday life is always full of surprises.BA little positive action can make a big difference.CBeing different is a good way of doing business.DMost customers enjoy being treated this way.BSince the beginning of the year, smog has covered parts of North China. In January, Beijing saw only five days without smog. The rising PM 2.5 readings terrified many people, and some health experts said that whenever the smog gets serious, hospitals receive more patients suffering acute respiratory（呼吸系统）and heart diseases.Later, news of polluted underground water in some provinces scared people who wondered whether the water they drink is safe.So the need to emphasize environmental protection while developing the economy is heard everywhere. Smog especially is a common concern. Like a popular online post said, air may be the only thing that is equal for everyone, despite your income or vocation. People with higher incomes are able to drink only bottled spring water and eat only organic food by paying higher prices, but they breathe the same air as everyone else. At a meeting on Monday, many Representatives have expressed their concerns about the air quality, too. One talked about his experience in Beijing. “After taking a taxi from the capital airport to my hotel, which took about an hour, I washed my nose and found the inside of my nose was black. We should ask ourselves this question: Why do we want to develop? Its for living a better life. Dirty air is definitely not a better life, he said. China needs to develop its economy and invest(投资) in high-tech. Every Chinese wants a strong country. But without blue sky, clean water and safe food, the achievements in the economy will become meaningless. Space technologies are not to be developed for building a base on Mars so that one day all human beings can migrate to the red planet because they have destroyed Earth. What the public wants is a strong and beautiful China. Former President Hu Jintao spoke at the 18th Party Congress last November saying that great efforts must be made to promote ecological progress and build a beautiful China. The words have shown the central governments resolution to address the environment issue. 61The effect of smog doesnt include .Athe increase of peoples incomeBmore people suffering diseasesCthe rising of PM 2.5 readingsDpatients increased in hospital62Why smog has become a common concern?ABecause people have to pay higher prices. BBecause a popular online-post discussed it.CBecause we have to develop industry. DBecause nobody can avoid it.63From the last two paragraphs we can infer that .Ahigh-tech can completely solve the problem of pollutionBwe must protect the environment while developing economy Cwe can move to the Mars after the earth has been destroyedDspace technologies should be developed in a large scaleCDo you know where the food you eat comes from? The students at Sopris Elementary School, in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, do. They grow it themselves!Christensen is the executive director of Mountain Valley Development Services (MVDS). The organization supports people with developmental disabilities through teaching programs. Many members work on their gardening skills at the MVDS greenhouse, located next door to Sopris Elementary. Through the greenhouse program, members learn how to work alone and with others.Christensen invited Sopris Elementary to use part of MVDSs green house. Christensen said the project had two goals. The first goal was to help kids learn how food gets from the ground to the cafeteria table. The second goal was that MVDS members and the students would learn from each other. “ We wanted to educate kids about people with disabilities who contribute a lot to the community.” Christensen said.Today, the project is developing . More and more schools get to know its importance to the students and have started this program. Meanwhile, the Sopris Elementary School was able to add a solar-heating system to the greenhouse to keep plant beds not too hot in summer and perfect warm in the winter. The project has saved MVDS money by helping to save energy. The money they save will be used to pay back loans and improve the greenhouse. “ Its worth the time it take to do it,” Browning said. “ Ive found the parents and community are very much behind it.”More than 400 students are taking care of the plants in the greenhouse. Every class gardens two or three times a week. Last month, students began to harvest their first crop of vegetables, including carrots, radishes and spinach. Hannah Jull, 11, says the crops are doing well. “We have so much fun.” She says. “Everyone is going to like the food were growing.”Niamone believes the school garden has inspired kids to plant gardens at home. “The projeft taught us that with a little hard work, you can make a healthier choice.” She says. “You just have to take that one first step.”64. What morals can students learn from the greenhouse program?A. Determination and confidence. B. Independence and cooperationC. Gratitude and appreciation. D. Confidence and kindness.65. According to the passage, the solar-heating system is used to _ .A. make the temperature suitable for the vegetables to grow.B. make the vegetables get enough water to growC. make the students work in the greenhouse comtortablyD. get enough sunlight for the students working there66. What can we infer from the passage?A. Christensen is taking charge of the greenhouse programB. The greenhouse program is part of the required course.C. Students working in the greenhouse are all disabled.D. The greenhouse program is popular in more schools.67. Hannah Jull is referred to in the text to prove that _ .A. everyone likes to grow vegetables on the garden and on the farmB. vegetables grown on the garden are more delicious than those on the farmC. no food eaten by man is so sweet as that earned by his own laborD. growing vegetables on the farm is more interesting than studyD Edward Snowdenthe fugitive （逃亡者） former USintelligence employee appears to be stuck in Moscow, unable to leave without a valid American passport, according to interviews Sunday with two men who had sought to aid him: WikiLeaks Julian Assange and Ecuadoran President Rafael Correa Snowden, 30, arrived at Moscows Sheremetyevo International Airport last weekend, after previously taking refuge in Hong Kong Moscow was only supposed to be a stopoverWikiLeaks, the anti-secrecy organization, had said Snowden was headed on to Ecuadorwhose president has been critical of the United States and that he would seek asylum there Now, however, both men said Snowden is unable to leave The United St
