3．There is a change in the air at the tea factory in Thika，Kenya．It is free of the dark smoke that rises from the boilers（锅炉） of Kenya's other tea factories．
Makomboki Company has begun to use a less costly and more environmentally friendly fuel．Instead of burning wood，the tea maker is burning briquettes（煤球） made of animal material waste and something else，The Kenya Tea Development Authority supervises（治理） Kenya's 66 tea factories．Makomboki is the only one that does not use firewood in tea production．The factory is deep in central Kenya's hilly and fertile tea-growing Muranga County．The employees feed the factory's boilers with briquettes of plants and rice husks-the dry outer covering of the seeds

John Gitau said it takes the factory six months to produce about 2.5 million kilograms of tea．During that time，their boilers would use up to 10，000 cubic meters of wood-or about 30，000 trees worth．Furthermore，the factory used to spend 542，000ayearonfirewood．Now，theintroductionofbriquetteshascuttheenergybillto295，600．

4．What does it mean to cry over a book？"I'm a reader who did not weep，"Ruth Graham，a well-known critic，wrote．"Does this make me heartless？Or does it make me a grown-up？"
    Tears have played a surprisingly important part in the history of the novel．Readers have always asked about the role that emotion plays in reading：What does it mean to be deeply moved by a book？Which books are worthy objects of our feelings？
    In different times，people answered those questions in different ways．In the early eighteenth century，when the novel was still a new form，crying was a sign of readers'virtue．"Sentimental"novels，full of touching scenes，gave readers an occasion to exercise their"finer feelings．"Your tear proved that you were likely to feel the suffering of others．
    At that time，sentimental novels were hugely popular，but also easy to attack．Tears，after all，had no necessary connection to actual virtue，and they could be not true  As the critic John Mullan points out，by the end of the eighteenth century，the word"sentimental"had acquired a new meaning-"addicted to low emotion"-bringing it closer to the meaning that it has for us today．
    In the nineteenth century，the meaning of tears evolved in two different directions．Some writers sought to waken"higher"feelings in their readers：Victorian sentimentalists wrote touching scenes in an effort to inspire social and political reform．However，the"sensation"novel，a different type of Victorian best-seller，showed that tears could be enjoyable in themselves．Sensation novels were the leaders of the modern thriller and mystery．Heavy on secrets，and madness，they were known for creating physical"sensations"in their readers-trembling，a fast beating heart，and tears．But these were tears without moral purpose or effect．
    Today's debate about crying while reading looks back on all of this history．The debate，in fact，is about why books matter to us，and what reading is"for．"Talking about what makes us cry is a way of talking about ourselves．
32．What was people's attitude towards crying over novels in the early 18th century？B
A．Doubtful．B．Positive．C．Uncaring．D．Worried．
33．From the passage we can know that"sensation"novelsC．

1．So much to do，so little time．So much information，so little time to read it．In this age there is more information than ever before．There is not enough time to read everything we want to read．However，you can consume more information in shorter time through speed-reading．
The first thing about speed-reading is looking at the word and recognizing it．Don't say the word in your mind，just look at it and recognize its importance．Later you will recognize clumps of four words or more to increase your speed．This is the first and most important step in speed-reading．
The next step is technique．As with any other skill，speed-reading requires technique．You should first be sitting up straight with your book flat on a horizontal （水平的） surface such as a table or a desk．Next，you should be able to see the entire page．This is necessary if you want to recognize clumps of words．Lastly，you should be focused．It is hard to read with a lot of noise．Find a quiet place to read．This will help your understanding of the text．
You need something to guide your eyes while reading．You should use your finger．Move your finger smoothly across the page．Keep your eyes focused on the words as you recognize them while using your finger as a guide．This will increase your speed．
The third step is practice．Practice makes perfect．Read using different techniques，but make sure you understand what you are reading．

63．From the first paragraph，we know thatC．
A．people can read what they like
B．the less you read，the more time you will spend
C．there is more limited information than ever before
D．conditions ask people to use less time to know more information
64．Which of the following shows the RIGHT time order for speed-reading according to the passage？B
a．Ask for more technique．
b．Look at many words and recognize them．
c．Practise more．
A．c，a，b    B．b，a，c      C．c，b，a   D．a，c，b
65．The underlined part"you should be focused"in the third paragraph means thatA．
A．a person should devote all his attention to reading
B．your feelings will be hurt while reading
C．a person should forget his difficulties while reading
D．you should pay attention to your faults while reading
66．To speed up your reading，you couldC．
A．know it is necessary to read quickly      
B．say every word out loud
C．use something to guide your eyes   
D．underline some important words while reading．
