a. life in london is exciting but tiring. b. londoners are traditional and fashion conscious. c. many well-known writers like to live in london. d. coffee is more popular with londoners than tea.22. the underlined word “hankering” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “_”. a. desire b. respect c. preparationd. talent23. in which column of a newspaper can we find the passage? a. culture.b. travel. c. education. d. entertainment.b people are compassionate. with effort, we can translate compassion into action. an experience last weekend showed me this is true. i work part-time in a supermarket across from a building for the elderly. these old people are our main customers, and its not hard to lose patience over their slowness. but last sunday, one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable lesson. this untidy man walked up to my register (收款机) with a box of biscuits. he said he was out of cash, had just moved into his room, and had nothing in his cupboards. he asked if we could let him have the food on trust. he promised to repay me the next day. i couldnt help staring at him. i wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before, and what he would be like if luck had gone his way. i had a hurt in my heart for this kind of human soul, all alone in the world. i told him that i was sorry, but store rules didnt allow me to do so. i felt stupid and unkind saying this. just then, another man, standing behind the first, spoke up. if anything, he looked more pitiable. “charge it to me,” was all he said. what i had been feeling was pity. pity is soft and safe and easy. compassion, on the other hand, is caring in action. i thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either. then i reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself. i reached into my pocket because these two men had reached into my heart and taught me compassion.24. the aged gentleman who wanted to buy the biscuits _.a. promised to obey the store rules b. forgot to take any money with himc. hoped to have the food without paying d. could not afford anything more expensive 25. which of the following best describes the old gentleman?

a. wealth is more important than anything else. b. obeying the rules means more than compassion. c. experience is better gained through practice. d. he should have sympathy for others suffering cheavy haze (霾) still covered north and east china on saturday, with highways closed and flights delayed or canceled. the smoggy weather affected the countrys land from north to south, including beijing, hebei, shandong, jiangsu, shanghai, zhejiang, hunan, guangxi and guangdong, with visibility less than 50 meters in some areas.cities like shanghai and nanjing have been enveloped in the grey sky for the past several days. many walkers in the street had to wear masks. in the lukou airport in nanjing, jiangsu province, more than 60 inbound and outbound flights were canceled on saturday because of the hazy, which also forced primary and middle schools and kindergartens to stop classes on thursday and friday in nanjing. the ministry of environmental protection said earlier this week that there were several main reasons behind the widespread haze: unfavorable weather conditions making it difficult for pollutants to diffuse (消散), motor vehicle exhaust, coal use for winter heating.the chinese government now plans to clean up the air by cutting coal use, closing some factories and promoting cleaner production.poor air is bad for peoples health, especially for children and the elderly. a report from beijing childrens hospital shows that from jan 5 to 11, half of the patients in the internal medicine department are there for respiratory (呼吸的) problems.here are some tips on a polluted day:1. dont do outdoor sports.2. if you have to go out, wear a mask. read the instructions carefully before putting on one. if you dont wear it in the right way, you may feel dizzy and weak.3. wash your face and clean your nose as soon as you get home. 28. which city was not affected by the smoggy weather on saturday?
