My friend had mentioned the other day that her father had a lot of children's toys he was looking to give away. She knew I have a three-year-old daughter so she thought of me first. I told her I would love it if I could get some nice things for my daughter, which I wouldn't otherwise have been able to afford.

When I met her father, he began to explain he was too poor once and that he would hate to throw away things that can be very useful.

Before he showed me what he was giving away, I thought the toys would be mostly lego's(乐高积木) or things like that. When he was showing me around I saw a bed, a slide, a kitchen set and many other things that just blew my mind. He told me to write a list of everything my daughter could use and as my eyes were wide, he told me not to feel guilty. He said I was helping him by getting rid of the stuff.

As I was looking around I did feel guilty, but I tried to remain more grateful than guilty. Every time I tried to thank him for giving me and my daughter all this wonderful stuff he would thank me right back. I wanted to believe that he was just thanking me so that I wouldn't feel so guilty but in reality I believe that he was as grateful as I was that these toys would be put to good use.

In the eyes of charity, it makes sense to feel grateful, but guilt is just as normal. I know that we could have lived without a slide, which is why I do feel guilty, but I am grateful all the same because my daughter really does enjoy all these nice things!

1.Why did the old man want to give away his toys?

A. He wanted to help those poor children.

B. He was wealthy enough to buy new toys.

C. He wanted to make full use of those toys.

D. He needed some space for more useful things.

2.In the writer's opinion, the old man felt grateful because

A. he wanted to make her more guilty

B. he wanted her to take the toys quickly

C. the toys would be put to good use

D. he finally got rid of the stuff

3.What can we know from the passage?

A. The writer took all the toys home.

B. The old man was a kind and thoughtful person

C. The writer wanted to refuse the stuff when she first saw them.

D. The writer's daughter enjoyed the slide most among all the stuff.

4.How did the writer feel when given the stuff?

A. Guilty and honored. B. Grateful and respected.

C. Honored and respected. D. Guilty and grateful.

In her new book, “The Smartest Kids in the World,” Amanda Ripley, an investigative journalist, tells the story of Tom, a high-school student from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, who decides to spend his senior year in Warsaw, Poland．Poland is a surprising educational success story: in the past decade, the country raised students’ test scores from significantly below average to well above it．Polish kids have now outscored（超过……分数） American kids in math and science, even though Poland spends, on average, less than half as much per student as the United States does．One of the most striking differences between the high school Tom attended in Gettysburg and the one he ends up at in Warsaw is that the latter has no football team, or, for that matter, teams of any kind．

That American high schools waste more time and money on sports than on math is an old complaint．This is not a matter of how any given student who plays sports does in school, but of the culture and its priorities．This December, when the latest Program for International Student Assessment（PISA） results are announced, it’s safe to predict that American high-school students will once again display their limited skills in math and reading, outscored not just by students in Poland but also by students in places like South Korea, Belgium, the Netherlands, Finland, Singapore, and Japan．Meanwhile, they will have played some very exciting football games, which will have been breathlessly written up in their hometown papers．

Why does this situation continue? Well, for one thing, kids like it．And for another, according to Ripley, parents seem to like the arrangement, too．She describes a tour she took of a school in Washington D．C．, which costs thirty thousand dollars a year．The tour leader—a mother with three children in the school—was asked about the school’s flaws（暇疵）．When she said that the math program was weak, none of the parents taking the tour reacted．When she said that the football program was weak, the parents suddenly became concerned．“Really?” one of them asked worriedly, “What do you mean?” One of the ironies（讽刺） of the situation is that sports reveal what is possible．American kids’ performance on the field shows just how well they can do when expection are high．It’s too bad that their test scores show the same thing．

From our smartphones to our latest weaponry, the technology that underpins（支撑） modern life would be impossible without rare earth metals． The importance of rare earths has only grown as emerging markets increase their demand for technologies made with it, as does the renewable energy industry．

The 17 metallic elements are common in the earth-s crust, but the technique used to extract and refine them is labor-intensive, environmentally hazardous and increasingly costly． Thomas Gradael, a professor of geology and geophysics at the Yale School of Forestry Environmental Studies, explains that the钰criticality" of rare earths was only recently understood after China, which dominates the world-s supply of the minerals, cut exports by 40% in 2010, citing concerns over how polluting the rare earth industry was．

Along with colleagues at Yale, Gradael decided to investigate the metals used in modern technologies to determine if there were viable（可行的） substitutes．“Twenty or thirty years ago electronics were being made with 11 different elements," explains Gradael． “Today's computers and smartphones use something like 63 different elements．" Their findings showed that there were no "readily apparent" substitutes for a metal that would not compromise on quality or performance．

However increased mining for these scarce resources can have some nasty side effects for the environment． China, which has intensively mined for rare earths with little regulation, allowing it to dominate the global industry since 1990, has acknowledged the incredible environmental harm caused by the process． “Excessive rare earth mining has resulted in landslides, clogged rivers, environmental pollution emergencies and even major accidents and disasters, causing great damage to people's safety and health and the ecological environment," read a white paper issued by the Chinese cabinet in June last year．

Recycling metal has been advocated by some as a possible way of managing these precious resources-the European Parliament adopted a law curbing dumping of electric waste in 2012． But Gradael says that for rare earths, recycling will have little impact．

1.Rare earths are growingly important in that

A． they exist in small numbers

B． they are essential in modern technologies

C． life would be impossible without them

D． new technology markets are emerging

2.Which one of the following can be used in the blank?

A． It is in China that rare earths are fully understood．

B． Despite the name, rare earth metals are not in fact rare．

C． There is a growing concern over the rare earth industry．

D． Rare earth metals are difficult to collect though important．

3.Gradael investigated the use of rare earths in modern technologies to ．

A． prove the important role rare earths play

B． learn the number of different elements used

C． determine whether there are substitutes for rare earths

D． research further the quality or performance of rare earths

4. Why does the author take China as an example in Para．4?

A． To tell the wide use of rare earth in China．

B． To prove the side effects of rare earth mining．

C． To warn people of the possible damage．

D． To teach other countries a lesson to follow．

5.The text may probably be followed by the paragraphs about

A． the reasons why recycling works little

B． the ways to manage rare earths

C． the effects brought about by rare earths

D． the attitudes people hold to the law
