During his stay in China, he saw many wonderful things. One of the things he discovered was that the Chinese used paper money. In western countries, people did not use paper money until the 15th century. However, people in China began to use paper money in the 7th century.A Chinese man called Cai Lun invented paper almost 2000 years ago. He made it from wood. He took the wood form trees and made it into paper. He then put these pieces of paper together and made them into a book.Now paper still comes from trees. We use a lot of paper every day. If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth. If there are no trees, there will be no paper. Every day, people throw away about 2800 tons of paper in our city. It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper. This means that we are cutting nearly 48000 trees every day. Since it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow, we must start using less paper now. If we dont, we will not have enough time to grow more trees to take the place of those we use for paper.So how can we save paper? We can use both sides of every piece of paper, especially when we are making notes. We can choose drinks in bottles instead of those in paper packets. We can also use cotton handkerchiefs（手帕）and not paper ones. When we go shopping, we can use fewer paper bags. If the shop assistant does give us a paper bag, we can save it and reuse it later.Everyone can help to save paper. If we all think carefully, we can help protect trees. But we should do it now, before it is too late.51.

It is never too late to plant trees for paper.BWhat is color? Why do some of the things around us look red, some green, others blue?Colors are really made by deflected (反射) light. We see colorbecause most of the things reflect light. In the same way, if somethingis green, it reflects most of the green light. If something reflects alllight, it is white. If it doesnt reflect any light, it is black.Some of the light is reflected and some is taken in (吸引) andturned into (变成) heat (热能).The darker the color is, the less light isreflected, the more light is taken in. So dark-colored clothes arewarmer in the sun than light-colored clothes.56.When something reflects light, we can _.A. see its color B. see its heat C. not see its color D. see nothing57.Something looks white because it reflects _.A. some light B. no light C. all light D. most light58. the dark-colored clothes are warm because _ is taken in.A. more light B. less light C. more color D. less color59.In summer _ make people feel cool.A. dark-colored clothes B. red-colored clothesC. green-colored clothes D. light-colored clothes60.Whats the best title(标题)of this passage( 短文 )?A. Dark color B. Color C. Heat D. ClothesCSociologists, working in western countries, have found that a large number of women wished they had born men. The number is said to be as high as 60% in Germany.“Women often wish they had the same chances as men have, and think it is still mens world,” said Dr. James Helen, one of the sociologists who did the study.Many men say that they have more duties than women. A man has to make money to support his family and to make the important decision, so it is right for men to be paid more. Some are even against their wives working at all. When wives go out to work, they say, the home and children can not be taken good care of. If women take full-time jobs, they wont be able to do what they are best at doing: making a nice home and bringing up the children.Some women disagree. They say that want to get out of their homes and to have freedom to choose between work and home life. Women have the right of equal pay and equal chances.Anne Harper has a very good job. She also believes in -“Womens Liberation（解放）”. “I dont wish I were a man,” she says, “and I dont think many women do. But I do wish people would stop treating us like second-class people. At work, for example, we usually do the work that man do but get paid less. There are still a lot of jobs only to men-usually they are the best ones.

Students with cars buy large speakers and play the music loudly as they drive on the street.Adult(成年的) drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work. 67 Most of the radio programmers are music.Pop or popular music singers make much money. They make a CD or tape which radio stations use in many places. Once the popular singer is heard all over the country，young people buy his or her tape. 68 Wherever the singer goes， all the young people want to meet him or her.
