I woke up late and had breakfast in a hurry. I had never been late and didn’t want my boss to be unsatisfied. However, it seemed that day wasn’t a lucky one for me from the very second I left my flat. The moment I wanted to rush downstairs one of my stiletto heels (细高跟) broke. I had to return to change my red shoes. I also had to change my purse and other little things that I had tried to match with the shoes. I was sure I would be late for work.

On my way to work I had to wait for over half an hour because of an accident. I had no choice but to wait. I phoned my boss and he told me that it was no problem, but he needed me for the meeting with the Japanese clients (客户) that morning.

Finally, I arrived at the office one hour later. I had to keep calm and be fresh for the meeting to make the clients sure that our plan was the best for their future commercial (商业的) project. However, I left the plan I had made the night before at home and was going to present (介绍) it to the clients. I was about to get angry when I realized that I had a draft (草稿) of it in my office.

At last, the presentation came to an end and it turned out to be a success. But I have to say that I had a terrible day, full of incidents.

In our rush to make life easier, we have decided to go blindly into the future without paying a thought to the severe consequences. The results have been great profits for individuals who have invested their time and money in industries that have improved their (and some others’) quality of life. 1.

But if we can create pollution, we can reduce it too. The problem is time and money. And time and money happen to be the investment that the creators of the pollution claim to have made to make life better for all, which means they have made a mess, to some or a large extent, in all cases.

The United States suffered from problems similar to what China is facing today. 2. The US government finally opened its eyes to the problems and told industries to cut down their polluting emissions(排放), for which it implemented strict laws requiring clean air and water. All the states in the country follow the regulations, and have added additional requirements that enhance the environmental laws. The end result is cleaner air and water.

3. The answer: the costs for keeping the environment clean eventually became the burden of the people. The equipment needed to create a healthy lifestyle has been added to the cost of making what we want.

The materialistic world that we live in is the cause of most of the pollution. If you wish, you can move away from cities and industrial regions causing the problem. 4. However, you will soon realize how really small the world is when pollution catches up with us through the wind and rain.

It will take time and money to solve the problems the environment faces today. 5. What the Chinese government should do is to immediately implement strict laws that require clean air and water.

A. So who paid for the clean air and water?

B. The results left scars on the land, dirty air and water.

C. If so, you may escape from the commonly known PM2.5.

D. I’m sure you can find places that are yet to be affected by the pollution.

E. The US government created the Environmental Protection Agency to oversee these laws.

F. But the longer we wait, the worse they will become and the more they will cost to solve.

G. However, that has also brought us side effects like polluted air and water we have to endure.

 

There’s always been a debate on whether human beings are born good or bad.Depending on how you view the world,you can think of all the crimes and injustice and conclude that we’re bad,so we need a system of laws to keep us in check.However,there are also a lot of stories of good deeds.I think we’re all born good.

(This selection was originally published in 1992. Pluto (冥王星) is no longer classified as a planet.)

Pluto is in many ways the strangest of the planets. It is small and has a large moon(called Charon). Its orbit(轨道) is unusual, which may cause it to have seasons in the sense that when it is close to the sun, the liquid (液体)methane(甲烷)on its surface boils to form a kind of atmospheric haze(烟雾). When the planet moves farther away from the sun, it starts to snow solid(固体) methane.

Pluto is not dark. Despite its great distance from the sun, the surface of Pluto is probably as bright as a moonlit night on Earth. The reason is all that methane, which is as white as newly fallen snow.

The discovery of Pluto was more accident than design. The American astronomer Percival Lowell had predicted the existence of a ninth planet(he called it Planet X)based on what he took to be irregularities in the orbit of Neptune. Today astronomers argue that these "irregularities" weren't real, but the result of instrumental error. Nevertheless, Lowell produced predictions about where Planet X ought to be(although, to be honest, the predictions changed occasionally when he redid the calculations).In any case, in 1930 Clyde Tombaugh, doing a systemic sky survey that would have found the planet no matter where it was, discovered the planet we now call Pluto. By coincidence, its position was pretty close to where Lowell's last prediction said it should be. Was it just luck? We'll never know.

1.On Pluto's surface, liquid methane boils to form an atmospheric haze, which would be most similar to ____.

A. light B. darkness

C. liquid D. steam(水蒸气)

2.What effect is produced by including the question "Was it just luck?" at the end of the text?

A. The question encourages the reader to think about why Pluto is a strange planet.

B. The question encourages the reader to think about how planets are discovered.

C .The question suggests that all discoveries are luck, not just design.

D. The question suggests that other planets were found in different ways.

3.What contributes to the brightness of Pluto?

A. Methane on its surface. B. Its great distance from the sun.

C. Light from its moon, Charon. D. Its closeness to the sun.

4.The text mainly wants to ____.

A. give a brief introduction of Pluto

B. talk about the discovery of Pluto

C. prove the exact position of Pluto

D. describe the strangeness of Pluto
