     Boys need friends, suffer when they don’t believe they have any, and worry over the ups and
downs of relationships. Many adults believe that somehow boys need friends less than girls do, in
truth, though, no boy is an island: boys value their friends throughout childhood and adolescence
and are happier and healthier when they have solid relationships with peers.
     Despite the common belief that girls are better at relationships, most boys consider their friends
a very important part of their lives, and boys may actually be better at keeping friendships than
girls are. A recent study of 10-to-15-year-old boys and girls found that girls’ friendships are
actually more fragile（脆弱的）. Girls tend to say and do hurtful things to each other more
frequently than boys, and girls are more hurt by the end of a friendship.
     Boys are the living definition of the phrase “peer group”: they love games with rules, competition,
and doing things together. Boys seem to enjoy, even need the opportunity to test themselves
against others, and many lasting friendships begin in karate(空手道) class or on the basketball
court. Competence and skill are widely respected: being picked last for a team or left out altogether
is an experience that can haunt (萦绕心头) a boy for years.
     As boys mature, the friendship becomes even more important, and it frequently widens to include
girls. During the teen years, friends can become the most important part of a boy’s life ---and a
part in which his parents are not included. The confusion of being a teenager leads boys to form
close bonds with friends. There is the sense for many boys that a friend is someone who is “always
there for me”, someone he can trust. They may be partners in crime or partners in study, but the
friendship of adolescent boys can run surprisingly deep.
1．The common belief of adults is that boys ______.   
A. don’t care about others as much as girls    
B. don’t value friendships as much as girls
C. have the same friendship as girls          
D. have healthier friendship than girls  
2．According to the passage, ______.   
A. boys usually build friendships by playing competitive games
B. boys like to have small groups of friends
C. boys’ friendships seldom result in anyone being hurt
D. boys’ friendships can hardly end in failure  
3．The author mentions the study in Para. 2 to prove _______.   
A. girls value relationships more than boys
B. most boys consider their friends very important
C. boys may be better at keeping friendships than girls
D. boys may be more active in a friendship    
4．As a boy gets older, he tends to _______.   

A. widen his circle of friends to include his parents
B. shift his focus from his friends to himself
C. leave his parents out of his friends
D. be confused about what a friendship is  

5．What’s the best title of the passage?  _______
A. Friendships Between Boys and Girls        
B. Boys and Their Friendship
C. Childhood and Adolescent Friendship        
D. Tips on Making Friends with Boys

　　Businesses are witnessing a difficult time, which has in turn produced influence on consumers' edsire to go green．However, shoppers are still laying stress on environmental concerns．

　　Two thirds of customers say that environmental considerations inform their purchases to the same degree as they did a year ago, while more than a quarter say that they are now even better aware of the environmental effect on what they buy．

　　This may help to influence how shops store goods on their shelves．And the companies should still make efforts to become more envitonmentally friendly．Two out of three people think it is important to buy from environmentally responsible companies, with about one in seven saying that they had even decided to take their custom elsewhere if they felt a company's environmental reputation was not good enough．

　　Harry Morrison, chief executive(主管)of the Carbon Trust, sympathizes：“I understand this situation where survival is very important now．But from environmental considerations, the clocd is ticking－we don't have much time．In addition, cutting carbon has an immediate effect as costs drop and a mediun-term benefit for the brand．”

　　Larger companies have an extra motivation to look at reducing their carbon footprint, as new rules next year will require businesses bo buy carbon allowances to make up for their emissions(排放)．Those that have taken early action will have a head start．More than two thirds of consumers are not clear about which companies are environmentally responsible．This suggests that firms that are able to relay clearly their message to the public will be in a pole position to attract shoppers．

　　The Carbon Trust believes that it can help by informing customers about the good work companies are doing．“When companies are granted(授予)the standard, they can use a logo(标识)in all their marketing which makes it clear that they are working towards cutting emissions,”Mr．Morrison said．

　　To prevent the deserts coming near, China has planted billions of trees---to replace destroyed forests and as barriers against the sand．This isn’t a cure, though, say experts, as thirsty trees can make the problem worse by taking in groundwater．

　　“Planting tress is one way, but it isn’t that simple．It doesn’t solve the basic issue of water resources,” says Wu Bo, a professor．“We need to calculate how much water the trees will absorb, or else it could have a negative effect．”

　　Villagers in Zhengxin have taken on this challenge, with limited success．When the irrigation channels began to run dry, Lu Xianglin switched from wheat to cotton on his land．He also planted trees to protect his fields from sandstorms．He says he still gets good yields using flood irrigation and earns a good income for his family．

　　Other farmers haven’t stuck it out：About one in three have left Zhengxin in the past 10 years after their wheat crops died．Young people who can find jobs in the towns rarely return．

　　Last week, Mr Lu joined the other men in his village on a government-arranged trip to see the land that has been set aside for their relocation, nearly 40 miles to the south．The next day, he was back, shaking his head at the plan．The idea of uprooting his family troubles him, as does the idea of giving up the land that fed his forefathers．He prefers to stay and keep up the fight．

　　“With enough water, this problem can be solved,” Lu says．“We can plant trees and grass, and they will grow bigger．That will stop the desert．”

　　Experts say that farmers could switch to drip irrigation to lessen their water intake for growing crops．Elsewhere in the region, farmers have built brick greenhouses as part of a plan to grow vegetables using less water．Roadside signs urge farmers to “Save Water, Protect the Environment”．

(1)

The negative effect of planting trees in deserts is that _________．

[　　]

A．

it can make groundwater become less

B．

it can prevent the sand moving freely

C．

it can stop crops growing well

D．

it can get the soil to become poor

(2)

Why did Mr Lu NOT accept the idea of relocation?

[　　]

A．

Because the plan of relocation will cost him much money．

B．

Because his family had trouble moving away．

C．

Because he was reluctant to give up his land．

D．

Because he would rather stay than fight against the deserts．

(3)

What can we infer from the passage?

[　　]

A．

The deserts drive more and more people to leave their homes for their lives．

B．

People have no means to fight against the land becoming desert

C．

Water is the biggest barrier for people to stop the desert．

D．

Planting trees cannot solve the problem of desertification of farmland

(4)

What advice is given by experts to save water?

[　　]

A．

To plant more trees

B．

To build greenhouses

C．

To change crops

D．

To use drip irrigation．
