In a world today of immense technology, population growth and economic flourish, planning for future residential (适合居住的) and commercial developments needs careful analysis with well thought through assumptions about effects on the environment and the people of the community.

One example of a growing city is Wooster, Ohio, my place of residency, Wooster in the last five years has grown considerably in population, leading to a growth in commercial business. Surrounded by farmland, Wooster’s planning commission chose to extend the community into these farm areas in the form of residential and commercial areas.

Picture this—corn fields, old trees, clean air, country roads, and wildlife are all part of the area. Within four years, the people living on this farm step outside on their front porch to view an extensive shopping center containing Wal-Mart, McDonald’s, Wendy’s, TCBY, and a Cinemark movie theatre. The once quiet road is now a city street with traffic lights, busy with automobiles day and night. The air smells of car exhaust and fast food.

Some destruction of farmland is unavoidable when a city expands. Instead of expanding outward, planning commissions should consider interior(内部的) remodeling of a city. Tearing down unusable buildings could remodel many areas inside the city. In addition, commercialized buildings could extend upwards to avoid unnecessary use of land.

Environmentally, commercial expansion is harmful to the land. Besides forms of pollution, wildlife, including both plants and animals, is put at risk. A planning commission could have realized the benefits of environmental protection. Why not preserve the beauty and naturalness of the land while at the same time allowing for growth?

With a steady growth of population and the need for more homes and more workplaces, many problems arise when planning for the future. The hillsides, fields and animal habitats need to be preserved while expanding cities. In the future, a world covered with concrete and asphalt（沥青）could become reality. Serious research and analysis are needed when planning for the future of our home communities and for the entire globe to avoid such a miserable result．

1.It can be inferred from the passage that ______.

A. it is unavoidable to destroy farmland when a city grows

B. Wooster used to be a quiet and peaceful city surrounded by farmland

C. with many nationwide shopping centers, Wooster lost its uniqueness

D. commercial expansion has done no harm to Wooster

2.It can be concluded from the passage that the author thinks Wooster’s planning commission ______.

A. has tried its best to protect the environment

B. preserves the hillsides and fields

C. should have avoided such a tragedy

3.Which of the following sentences best expresses the main idea of the passage?

B. With a safety growth of population, more homes and more workplaces are needed.

C. With immense technology, population growth and economic prosperity, we need to plan for the future.

D. When planning for future developments, effects on the environment should be taken into account.

4.What is the writer’s attitude towards the current planning of cities?

A. Critical（批评的）． B. Favorable．

C. Objective（客观的） D. Depressed．

Dear Angela,

I’m glad to hear the news you’ll come to Hangzhou for a visit. You know, Hangzhou is a beautiful city on the east coast of China. It is said that Marco Polo, a well-known Italy traveler once visited Hangzhou, and was striking by its beautiful scenery. Hangzhou is one of the oldest cities for a long history. It was the capital of several dynasty. As the result, it has a lot of famous temples and old towers. The West Lake, with green hills on three sides or many beautiful parks around, attracts a large number of visitors at home and at abroad. I think you’ll have a good time during our stay in Hangzhou. I’m looking forward to see you here soon.

Yours,

Li Hua

When should people be made to retire? 55? 65? Should there be a compulsory age limit?

Many old people work well into their 70s and 80s, running families, countries or corporations. Other people, however, despite being fit and highly talented, are forced to retire in their fifties or even earlier because of the regulations of a company or the nation. This essay will examine whether people should be allowed to continue working as long as they want or whether they should be encouraged to retire at a particular stage.

Some people think there are several arguments for allowing older people to continue working as long as they are able. First of all, older employees have a large amount of knowledge and experience which can be lost to a business or organization if they are made to retire. A second point is that older employees are often extremely loyal employees and are more willing to carry out company policies than younger less committed staff. However, a more important point is regarding the attitudes in society to old people. To force someone to resign or retire at 60 indicates that the society does not value the input of these people and that their useful life is over. Age is irrelevant to a working life, surely if older employees are told they cannot work after 60, this is age discrimination. That they become old does not necessarily mean they are going to be sick. Old people could be more aware, experienced and committed than some youngsters.

Others, however, think that allowing older people to work indefinitely is not a good policy. Age alone is no guarantee of ability. Old people are only ambitious workaholics who are too selfish and self?centered to believe that a younger person could do better. Actually, many younger employees have more experience or skills than older staff, who may have been stuck in one area or unit for most of their working lives. Having compulsory retirement allows new ideas in an organization. In addition, without age limits, however, many people would continue to work purely because they did not have any other plans or roles. A third point of view is that older people should be rewarded by society for their life's labor by being given generous pensions and the freedom to enjoy their leisure. We now have youngsters who can't find jobs because old people are choosing not to retire. Old people are not retiring because this new generation of “old people” think they will never die due to modern advances in medicine.

With many young people unemployed or frustrated in low?level positions, there are often calls to compulsorily retire older workers. However, this can affect the older individual's freedom and right to work and can deprive (剥夺) society of valuable experience and insights. I feel that giving workers more flexibility and choice over their retirement age will benefit society and the individual.

1.What is the purpose of this passage?

A．To explain the compulsory age limit.

B．To discuss the retirement age.

C．To examine people's working life.

D．To introduce a particular stage.

2.Which of the following is NOT a reason for allowing old people to continue working according to the passage?

A．Their contributions should be valued.

B．Their experience should be made use of.

C．They can help the youngsters.

D．They are loyal employees.

3.It can be inferred in the fourth paragraph that ________.

A．the young people have more creative spirits

B．modern advances in medicine make old people never die

C．pensions and freedom are not given to the old now

D．old people believe that a younger person could do better

4.The passage is arranged as follows：________.

I have been teaching animal behavior at the Boulder County Jail in Colorado for 10 years. The course is one of the most popular in the prison. Prisoners have to earn the right to attend the course and they work hard to get in.

One reason why the course is so popular is that many prisoners find it easier to connect with animals than with people, because animals don't judge them. They trust animals in ways they don't with humans.

Yet, they hold a misunderstanding of how animals treat one another. Many admit that their own “animal behavior” is what got them into trouble in the first place. I teach that though there is competition and aggression in the animal kingdom, there is also a lot of cooperation (合作) and sympathy.

Many of the students want to build healthy relationships, and they find that the class helps them. I use examples of the social behavior of group?living animals such as wolves as a model for developing and maintaining (维持) friendships among people who must work together for their own good and also for the good of the group.

It's clear that science inspires the students here and it also gives them hope. I know some students have gone back into education after their being set free while others have gone to work for humane (人道的) societies or contributed time and money to conservation organizations. One went on to receive a master's degree in nature writing.

Science and humane education help the prisoners connect with values that they otherwise would not have done. It opens the door to understanding, trust, cooperation and hope. There's a large population of people to whom science could mean a lot, if only they could have access to it. The class helps me, too. I get as much out of it as the students and it has made me a better teacher.

1.The author's course is welcomed by the prisoners because ________.

A．they consider animals their best friends

B．they are curious about the animal kingdom

C．they feel it easier to get along with animals

D．they are more familiar with animal behavior

2.The author used wolves as an example to ________.

A．provide the prisoners with more knowledge

B．explain the cruel side of group?living animals

C．help the prisoners realize the importance of teamwork

D．inform the prisoners that animals get people into trouble

3.We can infer from the text that some prisoners ________.

A．have turned over a new leaf

B．are required to attend the course

C．are willing to learn working skills

D．prefer humane education to science
