The gentle mist makes it somewhat difficult to find school bus No.330 parked by the east fence, even with my flashlight.For so many times. its occurred to me that Ive found a strange way of easing into retirement wheeling a school bus around the streets of Minnetonka, shepherding elementary and middle-school kids to and from school. Having spent the past 10 years before retirement as a family counselor, I figured that driving a school bus would give me a chance to reconnect with young people, and get me out of the house more often.Anyway, Im learning a lot driving a school bus and Ive learned a lot form my fellow drivers. If the kids are paying attention, they can learn it, too.The course is Life 101. The title is Self-Awareness and Self-Management. And the school bus drivers are, for a few minutes each morning and evening, teachers.These drivers are in fact people from different backgrounds, including retired folks-like a onetime corporate CEO, a onetime lawyer, a former teacher, a former investment banker. Some are younger stay-at-home moms, displaced managers, and people throwing their shoulders into a challenging economy. If the kids are paying attention, they may learn important things form these drivers, like discipline, kindness, and courage. How can kids know the discipline that it takes to rise every morning before sunrise, to travel to a cold garage and enter a large box of iron-checking it out from beginning to endensuring that it allows all the kids a safe ride? Do they recognize the challenge of being kind and respectful when ones financial house of cards may be coming down? Do children really understand the courage it takes to get up when snow is piling high and drive a school bus, facing all ultimate fearan injured child?While academics are vital, selfawareness, selfmanagement and personal responsibility are lifechanging. 61. The author decided to become a school bus driver to . A. get connected with the young kids and stay activeB. provide counseling service for the school kidsC. avoid getting into financial trouble after retirementD. guarantee that he has wellpaid stable job62. The underline word “shepherding” in the second paragraph means“ ”.A. sending off B. picking up C. getting on D. bringing up 63. What does the author really want to express in Paragraph 3 ?A. Class courses have been extended to the school bus. B. Learning from school bus drivers is a course on lifeC. School bus drivers should have common sense with driving. D. They are required to take selfawareness curriculum. 64. The underlined phrase “house of cards” in Paragraph 6 is often used to describe .

A School Bus Drivers Training ManualC. A School Bus Drivers Lesson on LifeD. A School Bus Driver And His StoryC There is a forgotten player in the global efforts to limit C02 emissions：the consumer. Households consume onethird of the final energy used in the European Union and produce around twothirds of city waste. Moreover, food, housing, and private transport account for almost 80 of environmental pressures. So consumers can make a real difference when it comes to fighting climate change. Several factors can direct consumers towards more environmentallyfriendly behavior. To achieve this, we need clear and simple information to guide consumption decisions. Indeed. Two thirds of consumers find it difficult to understand which products are better for the environment when shopping. With 58 of Europeans believing that many companies pretend to be green in order to charge higher prices, industry has a long way to go in helping consumers feet confident when making green choices. They should give consumers more information about the carbon footprint of their products, and promote more sustainable behavior among their customers.To be sure, companies are increasingly creating product labels that help consumers make responsible choices-for instance, reminding users of products made from materials that are recycled, renewable, andor less carbonintensive. Even so, only 20% of Europeans believe that companies are doing enough to promote environmentally friendly options. In times of crisis, consumers prefer high-quality products that will last long and wont go out of style. Durable products might sometimes cost more, but they dont need to be replaced as frequently. In this way, companies that create durable or recyclable products enable consumers to think differently about their purchases, which can help users behave more responsibly, and thus may help end our “throw-way” culture. However, it is not enough to inform consumers of the environmental features of products. We also need to provide consumers with guidance to establish a practical lifestyle model to follow. This cannot be brought about by regulations alone, but by good business communities that would create a loyal group of “sustainable consumers”. 66. According to the passage, the key to going greener globally is . A. to get the government involved in protecting the environmentB. to require the companies produce environmentally-friendly productsC. to encourage consumers to make their efforts to live a green way D. to provide enough information about sustainable products67. The author is trying to inform the readers in the third passage that . A. most European consumers lack confidence in making responsible choices B. companies can make a higher profit by making less carbon-intensive productsC. people are buying sustainable products to have a lighter carbon footprintD. companies have done enough to allow consumers to make greener choices68. Which of the fact is TRUE according to the passage?A. Households produce more than onethird of city waste. B. Green life style can reduce about 80 of environmental pressures. C. 23 0f consumers know little about which products are greener. D. only 20of companies are helping consumers behave respo
