The government is trying to reduce the use of air conditioners.Although air conditioners make our lives easier in hot weather, they can be bad for the environment. The coolers use a great deal of electricity to function and add to the effects of global warming.But it is a vicious (恶性的) cycle. As temperatures rise, there will be more need for air conditioning.Pawel Wargocki, an expert at the Technical University of Denmark, told The New York Times: “The air conditioning causes a huge problem to global climate and energy use.” He added, “More and more air conditioners are used. Its very dangerous.”We cant live with air conditioning. But the thing is, we cant live without it either. Scientific studies have shown that if indoor temperatures are high in hot weather, people will suffer from certain health problems and have a lower productivity.For example, when air conditioners were turned down in Japanese offices, the room temperature rose to 28 or higher. As a result, workers started getting headaches, and feeling sleepy.They couldnt give all their attention to work and their productivity dropped by 2 percent, which means they did 30 minutes less work each day, according to Shinichi Tanabe, a professor of architecture at Waseda University in Tokyo, Japan.So the best way to balance our comfort with environmental awareness is to change our expectations. Most of the time, its not that the room is too hot, but that we are used to it being cooler.“The temperature many Americans find most comfortable indoors in summer 21C feels uncomfortable to most Europeans, who find it too cold.” said Michael Sivak, professor at a University of Michigan, US. He said it is because Europeans care more about the environment and are willing to accept a bit more heat in summer.Also, we can try to change our daily behavior. Open the windows to let air in, for example. Turning on the air conditioner is not the only way to make us feel comfortable.21 . What did the Japanese government do to reduce the use of air conditioners?ATo allow the workers to wear T-shirts to work.BTo stop the workers from using air conditioners.CTo let people accept a bit more heat in summer.DTo ask people to open windows to let air in.22 . The writer probably agrees that _.Amost people will be sick without air conditionersBglobal warming is mainly caused by air conditionersCpeople have to be used to living without air conditionersDwe should change our expectations to protect environment23 . We can learn from the passage that _.AJapanese office workers are less productive in summerBAmericans care less about environment than EuropeansCPeople in Denmark believe air conditioners are dangerousDEuropeans accept a bit cooler than Americans in summer24 . Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?AProtect Environment: Is it time to change business suits?BProtect Environment: Is it time to focus on temperature?CProtect Environment: Shall we change our expectations?DProtect Environment: Shall we stop using air conditioners?Jehdi and Hassan were businessmen and good friends.One day they found themselves in a forest. They were tired so they sat down and Jehdi fell asleep.As Jehdi slept, Hassan saw a wasp (黄蜂) coming from his friends nose. It flew toward a pine tree (松树), circled it three times, and then returned to Jehdis nose. When Jehdi woke he said, “Hassan, What a dream! Imagine a big pine tree, like that one there. A wasp flies around it and its buzz (嗡嗡叫) seems to say, You must dig here. I dig and I find a big box of gold.”“Yes, a strange dream,” replied Hassan. “Why dont you dig around that tree and see if its true?”“My friend, it was just a dream and anyway its too hot to dig.”Hassan said, “If you do not want to dig, I will. Sell your dream to me.”“How much will you pay?” asked Jehdi.Hassan agreed to pay 300 coins.“Never have I made such a business deal. How nave (天真的) you are, Hassan!”The two friends then went to the pine tree Jehdi had dreamed about. Jehdi stood there with a smile on his face to see Hassan start digging. But he laughed on the other side of his face when Hassan dug up a huge box of gold. After this, Hassan had so much gold that he lived a rich life until his death.Jehdi often visited him. He would say, “Well, Hassan, how are you? I have come to see my dream.” They would pat(轻拍) each other on the back and laugh. But each time Jehdi went home sadly. He could never buy back his dream.25 . In Jehdis dream, he _.Ais attacked by a waspBdigs up a box of goldCtalks with a waspDbecomes a wasp himself26 . Jehdi is not willing to dig because_.Ahe doesnt believe his dream is trueBhe is lazy and doesnt want to workChe is too rich to care about the goldDhe cant find the tree from his dream27 .

In the eastern part, most of these bears have shiny black fur, but in the west they grow brown, red, or even yellow coats. To the north, the black bear is actually gray or white in color. Even in the same litter(胎), both brown and black furred bears may be born.Black bears are the smallest of all American bears, ranging in length from five to six feet, weighing from three hundred to five hundred pounds. Their eyes and ears are small and their eyesight and hearing are not as good as their sense of smell. Like all bears, the black bear is timid and rarely dangerous, but if attacked, most can climb trees or cover ground at great speed. When angry or frightened, they are formidable(可怕的) enemies.Black bears feed on leaves, roots, fruit, insects, fish, and even larger animals. One of the most interesting characteristics of bears, including the black bear, is their winter sleep. Unlike squirrels and many other woodland animals, bears do not actually sleep through the winter months. Although the bear does not eat during the winter months, sustaining(维持) itself from body fat, its temperature remains almost normal, and it breathes regularly four or five times per minute.Most black bears live alone, except during the mating(交配) season. They prefer to live in caves. Baby black bears are born in January or February after a gestation(怀孕) period of six to nine months, and they stay with their mother until they are fully grown or about one and a half years old. Black bears can live as long as thirty years in the wild, and even longer in some nature reserves.29 . American black bears may have _ colours according to the passage.AfourBfiveCsixDseven30 .

We cannot read the passage _.Ain a newspaperBon the InternetCin a bookDin an advertisementIreland has had a very difficult history. The problems started in the 16th century when English rulers tried to conquer （征服） Ireland. For hundreds of years, the Irish people fought against the English. Finally, in 1921, the British government was forced to give independence to the south of Ireland. The result is that today there are two “Irelands”. Northern Ireland, in the north, is part of the United Kingdom. The republic of Ireland, in the south, is an independent country.In the 1840s the main crop, potatoes, was affected by disease and about 750,000 people died of hunger. This, and a shortage （短缺） of work, forced many people to leave Ireland and live in the USA, the UK, Australia and Canada. As a result of these problems, the population fell from 8.2 million in 1841 to 6.6 million in 1851.For many years, the majority of Irish people made their living as farmers. Today, many people still work on the land but more and more people are moving to the cities to work in factories and offices. Life in the cities is very different from life in the countryside, where things move at a quieter and slower pace.Oscar Wilde, a famous Irish writer, once said that the Irish were “the greatest talkers since the Greeks”. Since independence, Ireland has revived （复兴） its own culture of music, language, literature and singing. Different areas have different styles of old Irish song which are sung without instruments. Other kind of Irish music use many different instruments such as the violin, whistles, etc.34 .
