12.Businesses are witnessing a difficult time,which has in turn produced influence on consumers'desire 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 environmentally 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 clock is ticking-we don't have much time.In addition,cutting carbon has an immediate effect as costs drop and a medium-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 to 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.

67.What's the main idea of the passage?B
A.Businesses are finding ways to send their message to the shoppers.
B.Firms are urged to cut carbon emissions by shoppers'environmental awareness.
C.Firms are making efforts to encourage customers to keep goods at home.
D.Companies will soon get information about cutting carbon emissions.
68.The underlined word"inform"in Paragraph 2probably means"C".
A.disturb     B.change       C.affect          D.reject
69.According to Harry Morrison,businessesB.
A.should buy carbon allowances for shoppers
B.will benefit from cutting carbon emissions
C.are required to make up for their carbon emissions
D.have encouraged shoppers to take their custom elsewhere
70.We can learn from the passage that businesses willA.
A.gain advantages by taking early action
B.use the same logo in their marketing
C.have a strong desire to reduce costs
D.attract more shoppers by storing goods.

8.On May 3,2002,archaeologists in England found a grave of a man dating back to around 2300BC.Buried with him were the tools of a hunter or warrior.There was a bone pin that may have been from a piece of clothing such as a leather coat.He carried a copper knife on his breast.The most amazing find was two gold earrings.That would have made him a man of distinction.Only a few centimeters from his head were two pots made of clay,tools and materials to make arrows,a bow and a dozen arrows for hunting and a second,smaller copper knife.Next to them lay a cushion stone,upon which the man could work metal.
His grave is the richest of any found from that period,because this man was buried with two gold earrings which are the oldest gold ever found in Britain (dated to 2470BC).Besides,he was buried three miles from Stonehenge.Archaeologists tend to believe he was a member of a powerful class who might have organized the construction of Stonehenge.
Stonehenge was begun around 3000BC.In about 2300BC the huge stone circles were built.The biggest stone weighed approximately 20 tons.But the smaller blue stones,still weighing 4tons on average,came from west Wales.It is not yet known how these were conveyed over a distance of 380km.It is also a mystery how early man was able to construct Stonehenge without the use of modern construction machines and lorries.
He is an example of people who brought culture and new techniques from the European mainland to Britain.In terms of technical development people were going from the Stone Age to the Bronze Age and then to the Iron Age.

7.What is teaching?It's a difficult question to answer.In fact,as long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning,they will continue to undertake to do for children that which only children can do for themselves.Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them.It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading.Douglas insists that"reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible".
Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes.They differ in kind and function.The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read.Teaching is also a public activity.It can be seen and observed.
Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language.Almost all of it is private,for learning is an occupation of the mind,and that process is not open to public  scrutiny.
If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable,what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the quest(探索) for knowledge?Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions."Make learning to read easy,which means making reading a meaningful,enjoyable and frequent experience for children".
When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are,and when both teacher fulfil them appropriately,then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated.Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of leaning to read by reading.

44.According to the passage,learning to read will no longer be a difficult task whenD.
A.reading enriches children's experience
B.teacher and learner roles are interchangeable
C.teaching helps children in the search for knowledge
D.children become highly motivated
45.The instruction of reading will be successful ifA.
A.teachers can enable students to develop their own way of reading
B.teachers can improve conditions at school for the students
C.teachers can devise the most efficient system for reading
D.teachers can make their teaching activities observable
46.The underlined word"scrutiny"most probably means"D".
A.inquiry    B.suspicion     C.control  D.observation
47.The main idea of the passage is thatD.
A.teachers should do as little as possible in helping students learn to read
B.teachers should encourage students to read as widely as possible
C.reading is more complicated than generally believed
D.reading ability is something acquired rather than taught.
17.The man behind the Apple empire died at 56in 2011.He was one of the people who made Silicon Valley(硅谷) the capital of technological invention.Author and business consultant Jim Collins once called Jobs the"Beethoven of business".When asked what Steve Jobs will be best remembered for,many of us would name a particular product:the iPod,the iPhone or the iPad,for example.But in the eyes of Eric Jackson,a reporter with Forbes magazine,Jobs brought the world much more than these popular devices(装置).Here are some of the lessons he taught us:
1.The most lasting inventions mix art and science.Jobs pointed out that the team members working with Apple were trained in anthropology(人类学),art,history,and poetry.He believed this was important in making Apple's products stand out.
2.Never fear failure.Jobs was fired by the successor he himself chose.It was one of the most public embarrassments(尴尬)of the last 30years in business.However,Jobs didn't hide away or try to get a new job.He picked himself up and got back to work.
3.You can't look forward to connecting the dots-you can only look backward.This means that,however much we try to plan things ahead of time,life is always full of unexpected things.What seems like bitter pain and defeat could turn out to sow the seeds of unimaginable success in years to come.You can't connect the dots looking forward.But you have to trust that all the dots will be connected in the future.
4.Listen to that voice in the back of your head that tells you if you're on the right track or not.Most of us simply decide that we're going to work in finance or become a doctor because it's what our parents tell us to do.Whatever your voice is telling you,it is smart to listen to it-like Jobs did.
Just as Caroline and Amy from his empire put it,"Steve was one of the most inspiring yet toughest boss ever-but who else could have built Apple?What Steve left is sure to inspire generations of creative thinkers to think differently.His influence will be felt throughout the world."

64.From the passage,we learn thatC.
A.Steve Jobs is the first founder of Silicon Valley
B.Steve Jobs is only remembered for the popular device iPhone

D.all the team members in Silicon Valley are trained in anthropology,art,history and poetry

D.To persuade readers that they shouldn't always-follow what parents tell them to do.
4.I was in my third year of teaching creative writing at a high school in New York,when one of my students,15-year-old Mikey,gave me a note from his mother.It explained his absence from class the day before.
I had seen Mikey himself writing the note at his desk.Most parental-excuse notes I received were penned by my students.If I were to deal with them,I'd be busy 24hours a day.
The  forged  excuse notes made a large pile,with writing that ranged from imaginative to crazy.The writers of those notes didn't realize that honest excuse notes were usually dull:"Peter was late because the alarm clock didn't go off."
Isn't it remarkable,I thought,how the students complained and said it was hard putting 200words together on any subject?But when they produced excuse notes,they were brilliant.
So one day I typed out a dozen excuse notes and gave them to my classes.I said,"They're supposed to be written by parents,but actually they are not.True,Mikey?"The students looked at me nervously.
"Now,this will be the first class to study the art of the excuse note---the first class,ever,to practice writing them.You're so lucky to have a teacher like me who has taken your best writing and turned it into a subject worthy of study."
Everyone smiled as I went on,"You used your imaginations.So try more now.Today I'd like you to write‘An Excuse Note from Adam to God'or‘An Excuse Note from Eve to God'."Heads went down.Pens raced across paper.For the first time ever I saw students so careful in their writing that they had to be asked to go to lunch by their friends.
The next day everyone had excuse notes.Heated discussions followed.The headmaster entered the classroom and walked up and down,looking at papers,and then said,"I'd like you to see me in my office."
When I stepped into his office,he came to shake my hand and said,"I just want to tell you that that lesson,that task,whatever the hell you were doing,was great.Those kids were writing on the college level.Thank you."

61.What did the author do with the students found dishonest?D
A.He reported them to the headmaster.
B.He lectured them hard on honesty.
C.He had them take notes before lunch.
D.He helped improve their writing skills.
62.The author found that compared with the true excuse notes,the produced ones by the students were usuallyB.
A.less impressive        B.more imaginative
C.worse written          D.less convincing
63.The author had the students practice writing excuse notes so that the students could learnD.
A.the importance of being honest       B.how to write excuse notes skillfully
C.the pleasure of creative writing     D.how to be creative in writing

1.The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past.With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphones,writing by hand has become something of nostalgic (怀旧的)skill.However,while today's educators are using more and more technology in their teaching,many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful---both in school and in life.
Virginia Berninger,professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington,says it's important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand.
Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks---both on a computer and by hand.The study,published in 2009,found that when writing with a pen and paper,participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate.
In a more recent study,Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student's writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to how well they can write."Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which helps us access our vocabulary,word meaning and concepts.It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas."Berninger said.
Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then transcribe(转换)"those words in the mind into written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,"the study said.Seeing the words in the"mind's eye"helps children not only to turn their ideas into words,says Berninger,but also to spot(发现) spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct them over time.
"In our computer age,some people believe that we don't have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,"she said."But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level,they won't have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer."
67.What makes writing by hand a thing of the past?C
A.The absence of blackboard in classroom.
B.The lack of practice in handwriting.
C.The use of new technologies in teaching.
D.The popular use of smartphones.
68.Berninger's study published in 2009B.
A.indicated that students prefer to write with a pen and paper.
B.focused on the difference between writing by hand and on a computer.
C.found that good essays are made up of long sentences.
D.discussed the importance of writing speed.
69.Which of the following best shows the role of spelling?D
A.Spelling improves one's memory of words.
B.Spelling slows down finding exact words to express ideas.
C.Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas.
D.Spelling ability is closely related to writing ability.
70.What conclusion could be drawn from the passage?A
A.Handwriting still has a place in today's classrooms.
B.Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching.
C.Computers can help people with their choice of words.
D.Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade.

Dear Disney,
Last weekend,the four members of my family spent an enjoyable holiday at the Magic Kingdom-Disneyland.And one event made our visit seem truly magical.
We got to the front of the line at Space Mountain,only to find out that our little daughter Gloria couldn't take her ice-cream on the ride.We were so excited that we all forgot ice-cream was not allowed on the ride.
Gloria broke into tears and we all had no idea what to do.Then Murphy,one of the staff members,came over.She bent down and told Gloria that she would hold the ice-cream for her and give it to her when she finished the ride.Gloria said,"Promise?"Then she gave Murphy her ice-cream,and she completely enjoyed the ride.
Sure enough,as we walked out the exit,there was Gloria's new friend with"her"ice-cream.Now you and I both know what happened,because we know that an ice-cream won't last twenty minutes on a summer afternoon in Florida.Murphy knew what time we would get off the ride; she went to the nearest shop and bought a brand-new ice-cream thirty seconds before we walked out the exit.Gloria said,"Thank you,"but I'm sure she thought it was the same ice-cream.
We know that someone tried hard to make our visit special.Thanks so much for going above and beyond!
Yours,
Carmen Rivera
