When young people begin to live independently, home-hunting can bring some stress. But they would do well to remember that a new alternative is available—micro-home.

Called “tiny houses”, these houses have all living necessities in a small package, including kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. Generally under 50 square meters, most tiny houses accommodate just one or two people though some claim the space for more. What’s lost in size is not lost in design as these homes are often quite unique and modern in design.

Besides an attractive appearance, tiny houses can also have unique practical features. Making the best of urban space, the 72- to122-centimeter-wide Keret House in Warsaw, the world’s narrowest home, fills in an alley. The Ecocapsule home uses solar power, wind power and rainwater collection to enable its owner to live practically anywhere. A system of rails allows the DALE micro-home to adjust room size and number as well as adding the option of an open or enclosed courtyard.

Visually appealing as micro-homes are, there are a few drawbacks to consider before getting cozy on a mini-couch. Moving into a tiny house requires the removing of most non-essentials, regardless of the emotional connection to them. Guests will also mostly be out of the question as the limited space may even cause a solitary (独居的) individual to experience some cabin fever (幽闭症). And finally, a micro-home is likely a temporary living option for most people since they will probably start families and acquiremore possessions.

Though the limitations will scare some, there is usually a benefit. A small size results in a small price tag and small bills, making tiny houses easier to save up for and budget. And though you won’t have much stuff around the house, this can provide the comfort of simple living and repairs. Micro-homes are also practically mobile and have eco-friendliness that can’t be matched by other homes. They probably aren’t for everyone or forever, but when it comes to your next (or first) home, they could be just what you need.

1.What can be learnt about micro-homes from the second paragraph?

A. People have to eat out as there is no cooking area.

B. These homes are poorly designed due to the small size.

C. All of the houses are under 50 square meters in size.

D. Such houses aren’t necessarily inconvenient though tiny.

2.The third paragraph is mainly developed ________.

A. by giving examples

B. by making comparisons

C. by following the time order

D. by describing the process

3.Micro-homes are especially fit for ________.

A. a young couple in hope of settling down permanently

B. an individual constantly suffering from cabin fever

C. a college graduate on a tight budget for the time being

D. a family of five in favor of environmental protection

4.What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Is Your House Tiny Enough?

B. Why Not Enlarge Your House?

C. East Or West, Home Is the Best!

D. Micro-homes—More Than Tiny!

I have just got some good news to tell to you. I win a national prize for painting last week. My father was so pleasing that he suggested I go to England for a holiday. I’d like to staying there for half a month, visiting place of interest or practicing my English as well. We’ve been writing to each for nearly a year now. I have often dreamed of talk face by face with you. I imagine you’ll be on vacation yourself by that time. Perhaps I could go out to do some sightseeing together.

A few years ago, a company called Space Marketing came up with a plan to send a mile–long advertisement into space. To advertising agencies (机构), it would have been “a dream come true”. However, advertising standards agencies finally decided not to allow Space Marketing to go ahead with their plans and they were forced to give them up.

Space may indeed be the final place for advertisers, because on Earth we are already surrounded by advertising wherever we are and whatever we are doing. Apart from the obvious adverts that we see every day on TV, and in newspapers and magazines, there is a whole ‘other world’ of advertising messages for our attention. There are ads that we see on the side of the bus we catch to work, for example. And what about the logos (商标) we see on the clothing of the people we walk past in the streets?

Most of the time, we are probably not even aware of (意识到的) these less obvious advertising methods, but that doesn’t mean that they don’t work. Take ‘product placement’, for example. You are in a cinema, watching the latest Hollywood movie. Look carefully at the make of car your favorite actor is driving. And what about his watch? Can you see what brand it is? Chances are, you can, and the company that owns the brand is likely to have paid thousands for it to appear in the film.

So, whether Space Marketing finally succeeds in sending ads into space or not is perhaps less important than it might seem. This would not change a thing. Our everyday lives are already strongly influenced by advertising whether we realize it or not.

1.What happened to the plan of sending an ad into space?

A. It came to nothing.

B. It was a dream come true.

C. It had to wait a few years before it was carried out.

D. It was supported by the advertising standards agencies.

2.How does the author explain the “other world” of advertising messages?

A. By showing research findings.

B. By explaining research findings.

C. By giving instructions.

D. By using examples.

3.As a form of advertising, product placement ________.

A. costs a little

B. doesn’t work

C. is less obvious than TV ads

D. mainly appears in Hollywood movies

4.What does the author suggest at the end of the text？

A. We live in a world of advertising.

B. We’ve changed a lot because of advertising.

C. Space Marketing leads in the advertising industry.

D. Space ads will mark the beginning of a new world.

A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as formal texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation of the time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.

A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, I think, some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.

There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two - headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist; and that, instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I find such people, I must say so peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girl-friend.

No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no clever child has ever believed that it was.

1.The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is _______.

A. repeated without any change

B. treated as a joke

C. made some changes by the parent

D. set in the present

2.According to the passage, great fear can take place in a child when the story is _______.

A. in a realistic setting

B. heard for the first time

C. repeated too often

D. told in a different way

3.The advantage claimed for repeating fairy stories to young children is that it _______.

A. makes them less fearful

B. develops their power of memory

C. makes them believe there is nothing to be afraid of

D. encourages them not to have strange beliefs

4.One of the reasons why some people are not in favor of fairy tales is that _______.

A. they are full of absurd imagination

B. they just make up the stories which are far from the truth

C. they are not interesting

D. they make teachers of history difficult to teach

Dear Editor,

We are students of Senior Three. We are writing to tell you the result of the survey “To Who You Go When in Trouble ” we have had in our class. Sixty percent of the students prefer to turn on their friends or classmates. Because they think they are of same age and can understand each other better. Thirty percent of the students would rather shared their troubles with their teachers or parents. The reason is that why they are of great experienced and can be believed in. Quite a few students who think them difficult to communicate with others, would rather deal with the troubles by themselves. In our opinions, we’d better turn to our parents or teachers with help. Only in this way can we solve the problems successful.

Yours,

Wang Lin
