attempt to help the environment and cut wastea step that environmentalists believe is a first for EuropeShopkeepers in Modbury population 1,500, agreed to stop handing out disposable plastic bags to customers on SaturdayThey said paper sacks and cloth carrier bags would be offered insteadLast month, San Francisco became the first US city to ban plastic grocery bagsInternationally, laws to discourage the use of plastic bags have been passed in parts of South Africa and Ireland, where governments either tax shoppers who use them or fine companies that hand them outBangladesh already bans them, and so do at least 30 remote Alaskan villagesModbury, about 225 miles southwest of London, has also declared a bag amnesty（宽限期）, allowing local people to hand in plastic bags that have piled up at homeThey will be sent for a reveling（狂欢）The Modbury ban was the idea of Rebecca Hosking, who saw the effect of bags on man life while working in the Pacific as a wildlife camerawomanShe said response（反应） in the town so far had been “really positive”“Modbury is quite an old-fashioned town and a lot of people have wicker baskets to go out shopping anyway,” Hosking told Sky News TelevisionThe Worldwatch Institute, an environmental research agency, states that 100 billion plastic bags are thrown away each year in the United States aloneMore than 500 billion are used yearly around the world61What was Rebecca Hosking?AA lawyerBAn environmentalistCA sailorDA photographer62The underlined word “disposable” in the passage probably means AacceptableBvaluableCthrow-away after being used Dcheap63It can be inferred from the passage that Amost of the people in Modbury continue to use plastic bagsBfewer and fewer plastic bags will be used in the worldCSan Francisco is the first city to ban plastic bags in the worldDmost countries in the world have passed laws to ban plastic bags64Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?AEnvironmental ProtectionBBig Cities Banning Plastic BagsCEffect of Plastic Fags on Sea AnimalsDBritish Town Banning Plastic BagsBBeing a mother is apparently not like it was in the good old daysTodays parents yearn for the golden age that their own mothers enjoyed in the 1970s and 1980s, researchers foundMothers have less time to themselves and feel under greater pressure to handle work and family life than the previous generationAs a result, 88 per cent said they felt guilty about the lack of time they spent with their childrenThe survey of 1,000 mothers also found that more than a third said they had less time to themselves than their mothers did just three hours a week or 26 minutes a dayAnd 64 per cent said this was because they felt they “had” to go out to work, while nearly a third （29 per cent） said they were under constant pressure to be the “perfect mother”, the report foundOther findings showed social networking and parenting websites, as well as technology such as Skype, were important in providing help and support among female communitiesKate Fox, a member of the Social Issues Research Centre, which conducted the survey for Procter & Gamble, said: “With increasing pressure on mothers to work a “double shift” to be the perfect mother as well as a wage-earner support networks are more important than ever”It comes as a separate report examining childcare in the leading industrialised nations found that working mothers in Britain spend just 81 minutes a day caring for their children as a “primary activity”Mothers who stay at home, on the other hand, manage twice as much time more than two and a half hours looking after their offspring, according to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and DevelopmentCritics say the pressure on women to work long hours, and leave their offspring in the hands of nurseries or child minders, is putting the well-being of their children at riskThe study also reveals that, despite the fact that more and more modern mothers go out to work, the burden of childcare still falls on them - even if their husband is not in workA father who is not in work tends to spend just 63 minutes a day looking after his child - 18 minutes less than a mother who goes out to workWorking fathers spare less than three quarters of an hour with their children65What does the passage mainly talk about?AThe good old days of mothers in the 1970s and 1980sBThe great sufferings of todays childrenCThe statistics of working mothers and full-time mothersDThe big problems that todays working mothers face66What does the underlined phrase “yearn for” probably means _Ahate Bmiss Cabandon Dcontrol67Which of the following problems is NOT mentioned in the passage?ATodays mothers have less time left for their children and themselvesBThe working mothers can hardly keep the balance between work and familyCMost of the mothers can not control their husbands nowadaysDModern fathers do not spend enough time with their children68From Paragraph 4, we can infer that _Aworking mothers can seek help on lineBSkype is a very famous expert in studying social issuesCworking mothers double shift is to be a wife and a motherDKate Fox has opened a website offering help to working mothers69What critics say means that _Ait is wise for working mothers to put their kids in nurseries or childmindersBtoo much time in nurseries or childminders is bad for kids mental and physical healthCnurseries or childminders are dangerous places for childrenDchildren do not like nurseries or childminders at allCNext time you find yourself drenched （湿透） in an unexpected heavy rain, look on the bright side it will be a memorable experienceWhile wet weather may make us feel gloomy, it sharpens the memory and improves our recallBut those who feel in a good mood because its a sunny day are able to remember less well, according to memory tests carried by Australian researchersProfessor Joe Forgas, who led the research, said: “It seems strange but a little bit of sadness is a good thingPeople performed much better on our memory test when the weather was unpleasant and they were in a slightly negative moodOn bright sunny days, when they were more likely to be happy, they flunked it”The tests were carried out on shoppers at a store in Sydney, where researchers randomly placed ten small objects on the check out counterOn rainy days, sad music was played in the storeWhen it was bright and sunny, customers heard cheery musicThis was done to further influence them towards negative or positive moodsAfter shopping, customers were asked how many of the objects they could rememberTheir scores were three times higher when the weather was bad and they were feeling angry, compared with those tested on sunny daysThe results were published in Journal of Experimental PsychologyA report on the findings said: “They point to a growing body of evidence that the way people think, the quality of their judgments and the accuracy of their memory are all greatly influenced by positive and negative moods”Professor Forgas said, “We found that weather inducted （引导） negative mood improved memory accuracyShoppers in a negative mood showed better memory and higher discrimination ability”A worse mood helped to focus peoples attention on their surroundings and led to a more thorough and careful thinking style, while happiness increased confidence and forgetfulnessBeing happy tends to promote a thinking style that is less focused on our surroundingsIn a positive mood we are less likely to make more snap （匆忙的） judgments about people we meetMild negative mood, in turn, tends to increase attention to our surroundings and produce a more careful, thorough thinking styleAccurately remembering everyday scenes is a difficult task, yet such memories can be important in everyday lifeSurprisingly, the influence of mood states on the accuracy of real-life memories is still poorly understood70Whats the major function of Paragraph 1?ATo give us an exampleBTo introduce the theme of the whole passageCTo tell us a storyDTo describe an interesting experience71The underlined word “flunked” in Paragraph2 may mean “ ”AfinishedBfailedCpassedDunderstood72In the research, researchers play different music to Amake customers become sadder or happierBhelp customers choose what they wantCpromote customers to buy more goodsDget customers to make a quick choice73According to Joe Forgas, on sunny days, people Awill make careful judg
