A mum saved her daughter’s life with her newly learned first aid skills. Sonya Hall，33，of Denny Avenue, Lancaster, had only just attended one first aid class the day before when she found herself needing to use the skills on her three-year-old daughter Tilly.

Sonya, who also has son Emmen, six, attended the first aid course at Lune Park Children’s Centre in Lancaster. Then she was faced with every parent’s worst nightmare when Tilly went blue in the face and stopped breathing. But thanks to her newly acquired skills, Sonya saved Tilly’s life.

Sonya said，“Tilly was playing with her brother and they were fighting over a toy. Emmen won the fight. Tilly fell backwards and her head was hit. She was face down and shaking and at first I thought she was upset. But then I saw she was blue in the face and had stopped breathing. I reacted without thinking and immediately started using _______________ I had learned the day before which were so fresh in my mind. I began doing mouth-to-mouth and chest compressions(胸外按压). It probably took about a minute before Tilly started breathing again, but to me it felt like a lifetime.”

After getting Tilly breathing again，Sonya called an ambulance and the doctors came. Since then, Tilly has been diagnosed(诊断)with Reflex Anoxic Seizure(反射缺氧发作).Sonya said，“It can happen when there’s any unexpected pain, fear or fright. It’s just so lucky that the day before it happened, I had been practicing first aid.”

You may never connect the words “good” and “eco-friendly” with plastic. It’s time to do a rethink on that as we say hello to hemp(大麻)plastic. Traditionally, plastics have been made from petrochemicals, which are mainly poisonous. Plants, on the other hand, are also a source of cellulose(纤维素),which can be used to make biodegradable (生物所能分解的)plastic. As hemp happens to be one of the richest sources of cellulose, it is only natural that scientists will support its use, considering its ecological benefits.

Hemp plastic is biodegradable and recyclable. If you thought being eco-friendly reduced its solidity, you couldn’t be more wrong. The hard level of hemp plastic can match that of regular plastic. Hemp plastic is resistant to heat; however, the most outstanding feature of a few varieties of hemp plastic is that they are flame resistant too. Finally, if Henry Ford could imagine creating a car with this material, we can perhaps believe that it indeed is “ten times stronger than steel”.

It is a pity that with so many useful qualities, we don’t see hemp plastic being used in our everyday life, the way it ought to be. Hemp plastic can easily take the place of the exiting plastic in products like cell phone chargers(充电器), laptop covers, etc. Currently, hemp plastic is being used to produce audio, video, toys, automobile parts and packaging materials.

Hemp fiber is one of the strongest natural fibers known to us. As scientists keep looking for ways to solve the ecological damage that traditional plastics have caused, here is a material that can be produced to be 100% biodegradable. Hemp plastic is known to be several times durable as compared to polypropylene(聚丙烯)plastic, and it comes without all the health and safety threats, It really has long useful life.

Plastics keep reminding us of the damage that we have done to our planet, all under the excuse of convenience. As hemp products have become a new choice into our daily life, Please take a green plan now and make your effort to protect the environment.

71. Plastics produced in the traditional way are______.

A. harmful                     B. made from plants    C. good and eco-friendly       D. biodegradable

72. According to Para.2, hemp plastic_____.

A. is all resistant to flame                   B. doesn’t have enough solidity

C. will take the place of steel                 D. can be used again after being processed

73. What does the underlined word “durable” mean in Para.4?

A. Very useful of important.                B. Costing little money or less money.

C. Staying in good condition for a long time.  D. Existing in large numbers or in many places.

74. Which aspect of hemp plastic isn’t mentioned in the passage?

A. Features.   B. Production cost     C. Applications.     D. Advantages.

75. What can we know from the passage?

A. Using hemp plastic is inconvenient.

B. People haven’t made the most of hemp.

Brrriiinnng. The alarm clock announces the start of another busy weekday in the morning. You jump out of bed, rush into the shower, into your clothes and out the door with hardly a moment to think. A stressful journey to work gets your blood pressure climbing. Once at the office, you glance through the newspaper with depressing stories or reports of disasters. In that sort of mood, who can get down to work, particularly some creative, original problem-solving work?

The way most of us spend our mornings is exactly opposite to the conditions that promote flexible, open-minded thinking. Imaginative ideas are most likely to come to us when we’re unfocused. If you are one of those energetic morning people, your most inventive time comes in the early evening when you are relaxed. Sleepy people’s lack of focus leads to an increase in creative problem solving. By not giving yourself time to tune into your wandering mind, you’re missing out on the surprising solutions it may offer.

The trip you take to work doesn’t help, either. The stress slows down the speed with which signals travel between neurons (神经细胞), making inspirations less likely to occur. And while we all should read a lot about what’s going on in the world, it would not make you feel good for sure, so put that news website or newspaper aside until after the day’s work is done.

So what would our mornings look like if we wanted to start them with a full capacity for creative problem solving? We’d set the alarm a few minutes early and lie awake in bed, following our thoughts where they lead. We’d stand a little longer under the warm water of the shower, stopping thinking about tasks in favor of a few more minutes of relaxation. We’d take some deep breaths on our way to work, instead of complaining about heavy traffic. And once in the office—after we get a cup of coffee—we’d click on links not to the news of the day but to the funniest videos the web has to offer. 

66. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?

   A. To tell us a specific story.                    

B. To introduce the topic of the passage.

   C. To indicate how busy one usually is in the morning.

   D. To show mornings are not suitable for creative work.

67. According to the author, we are more creative when we are _______.

A. focused            B. awake             C. relaxed           D. busy

68. What does the author imply about newspapers?

A. They are normally full of bad news.    B. They are solution providers.

C. They are a source of inspiration.       D. They are more educational than websites.

69. By “tune into your wandering mind” (in Para. 2), the author means “_______”.

A. wander into the wild                           B. listen to a beautiful tune

   C. stop concentrating on anything           D. switch to the traffic channel               

70. The author writes the last paragraph in order to _______.

   A. establish a routine for the future          B. summarize past experiences

   C. advocate diverse ways of life                  D. offer practical suggestions

For many of us, printed books are satisfying in ways beyond the words they contain. Billions of printed books have been published, read and saved in the 600 years since movable type was invented, so why mess with a good things?

       Sony Electronics is doing just that, betting that readers will be won over by the convenience of readability of its new electronic book devices. Sony's reader, the PRS-505, can hold 160 books in its fixed memory, enough to line the shelves on a good-sized wall in the average American home. The $299 device is about the size of a paperback book, but a half-inch thick and weighs less than a pound.

The Sony book reader is revolutionary not only in its storage capacity. The font (字体) is highly readable and adjustable by size. Unlike laptop computers, you can put the Sony in your purse, read it in direct sunlight and even bookmark the pages. And you can connect it to your PC to download books.

Surprisingly, though the reader has liberated the book from paper, electronic books aren't always a bargain. For example, David Baldacci's "Stone Cold" download retails（零售） for $15.19 at the Sony site, while Amazon（卓越网） will deliver a hard copy to your mailbox for $16.19.

The Sony reader also lets you store and play or display music. So what's not to like about the Sony? Well, for many bibliophiles, a lot. Book lovers like to have, hold and keep their volumes, which don't need charging. You can write notes in the margins, and enjoy the ambience they provide on your book shelves.

The need for electronic reading devices is likely to grow as more people worried about the billions of tons of paper used for printed material. Many believe the time will come when devices like the Sony reader are as common as printed newspapers and magazines today.

61. What would be the best title for the passage?

A. The age of the electronic book reader is coming    B. Printed books are out of date

C. The Sony reader meets many readers’ needs       D. The revolution in book readers

62. According to the passage, the Sony book reader _________.

A. is as light as a laptop computer                   B. can hold more than 200 books

C. is convenient to carry around                     D. cannot be connected to a PC

63. What is the author’s point when he mentions “Stone Cold”?

A. Amazon’s printed books are very cheap

B. “Stone Cold” can be got from the Sony site and Amazon

C. The Sony book reader is not very cheap to use

D. The Sony book reader can benefit its buyers a lot

64. The underlined word “bibliophiles” in Paragraph 5 refers to “__________”.

A. music lovers        B. book lovers   C. electronic reading devices              D. Sony readers

65. According to the author, what’s the future for the electronic reading devices?

A. They’ll replace printed newspapers and magazines

B. They’ll still be more expensive than printed newspapers

C. They’ll become a must in people’s daily life

D. They’ll become more popular as time goes on

I believe being honest is one of the greatest gifts. I know they call it a lot of fancy names these days，like 　36　and straightforward. And it’s still what 37 a man a good citizen. This is my code(准则)，and I try to live by.

I’ve been in the taxi business for thirty-five years， 38　 there is a lot about it that is not so good. Taxi drivers have to be rough fellows to be able to take it in New York. You've got to be 39 to fight the New York traffic eight hours a day.

Because taxi drivers are tough，people get the 40 impression that they are bad. Taxi drivers are just like other people. Most of them will act as 41 fellows. Almost every week you read in the papers where a taxi driver 42 money or jewels or like that people leave in their 43 . If they weren't honest，you wouldn't be reading those stories in the papers. One time，I found an emerald（翡翠的）ring in my car. I remembered helping a lady with a lot of suitcases that day，so I went back to where I had 44 her off. It took me almost two days to wait for her in order to return her 45 to her. I didn't get as much as “thank you.” 46 ，I felt good because I had done what was right. I think I felt better than she 　47 .

I was born and brought up in Ireland until I was nineteen years old. I came to this country in 1913 where I 48 several jobs to earn a few dollars before joining the army in World War I. After being discharged(退伍), I bought my own car and have owned one ever since. It hasn’t been too easy 49 , but my wife takes care of our money and we have a good bit 50 for a rainy day(一时之需). In all my years of driving a taxi，I have never had 51 with the public，not even with drunks. Even if they get a little headstrong(顽固的) once in a while，I just agree with them and then they behave themselves.

People ask me about tips. As far as I know， 52 everyone will give you something，because most Americans are 53 generous. I always try to be nice to everyone，whether they 54 or not. I believe in God and try to be a good member of my parish(教区). I try to act toward others like I think God wants me to act. I have been trying this for a long time，and the 55 I try，the easier it gets.
