Hello. I'm Tom. I'm a middle school student. It's nice to meet you here. First, let me tell you s about my family. There are f people in my family. They are my mother, my father, my sister, my brother and me. My father is a worker. My mother is an English teacher. My sister is eighteen and my brother is sixteen. I'm fourteen. We three go to the s school. We all enjoy w football games. My h is at West Street. There is a big tree and some small trees around my house. The big one is a pear tree and the small ones are apple t, but there a any pears or apples on them now. H is a photo of my house. In the photo, you can s three cats in my house. They are all black and white. We l them very much.

Make flash cards(识字卡)：(A) I find this is really the best way to learn new words. Make some small cards and write the new English word on one side and the word in your language or in easy English on the other side to test yourself. To really make this work, you have to review often(You need a system! ). I think this is the best method for learning English vocabulary.

Make sentences with the new words: This is great if you can ask someone to check them. It's also great to make some really crazy sentences-that way you won't forget them! I also collect example sentences of the words I'm trying to learn一if I see the word in a book, I write down the sentence.

Make up a mnemonic：A mnemonic is a way to remember something, like a little story. For example, (B) 我在厨房的门上贴上单词 kitchen. The problem with this is that it works for a while but then you get used to the words and forget to read them!

But, if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring your own things. Starting from June, some hotels in Beijing will no longer provide guests with these disposables. 【2】. Many disposable things are made of plastic. People throw them away after only using them once. 【3】. Do you know, one Chinese person makes as much as 400kg of waste a year! Most of that waste comes from disposable things. In Beijing, people throw away about 19,000 tons of plastic bags and 1,320 tons of plastic lunch bowls every year! Plastic can take between 100 and 400 years to break down. So the less plastic we throw out, the better. 【4】 .

Back at home and school, you can also do something to make our world a better place. Try to do these things in your daily life: Use cloth shopping bags, not plastic ones. After using a plastic bag, wash it out and let it dry. 【5】 Do not use paper cups. At your school dining room, use your own bowl and chopsticks instead of disposable ones.

To protect our environment and our home, it is very necessary and important for us to save natural resources(资源).

A.It is a waste of natural resources and is very bad for the environment.

B.Many guests like the idea because they don’t have to bring their own.

D.They want to ask people to use less disposable things.

【题目】根据下列短文内容，选择正确答案。
Close contacts between Japan and the rest of the world were created in the twentieth century. In the last forty years, business contacts between Japan and the West have become very important. Many foreign companies now have offices in Japan and Japanese businessmen do business around the world. Differences between Japanese and Western ways of doing business, however, often bewilder foreign businessmen and make doing business in Japan difficult for foreigners.
The American businessman, for example, wants to start talking business immediately. He does not want to wait. The Japanese businessman, on the other hand, likes to arrive at decisions after giving them serious thought. Another thing foreign businessmen have difficulty in understanding is when a Japanese means "Yes" or "No". This is because of cultural differences between Japanese and Western society, which make it difficult for a Japanese to say "No" directly.
In the USA, it is easy to say "No" to something one does not want to do. But in Japan, it is very difficult to say "No". To refuse an invitation or a request with "No" is felt to be impolite. It is thought to be selfish and unfriendly. So instead of saying "No" directly, the Japanese have developed many ways to avoid saying "No". These can help them avoid hurting other people's feelings. However, this often makes their ways of doing business rather difficult for foreigners to understand and follow.
（1）In the last forty years, _________ between Japan and the West have become very important.
A.culture exchange
B.education exchange
C.military contacts
D.business contacts
（2）What often makes foreigners feel difficult to do business in Japan?
A.Their different ways of doing business.
B.Their different lifestyles.
C.Japanese never say "No".
D.Japanese are slow to take action.
（3）Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined expression "bewilder foreign businessmen" in Paragraph One?
A.cause foreign businessmen to change their minds.
B.give a feeling of surprise to foreign businessmen.
C.attract foreign businessmen's attention.
D.make foreign businessmen think wrongly.
（4）What fact does the passage lead you to believe?
A.American businessmen do things more slowly than Japanese ones.
B.American businessmen like to say "Yes" and "No".
C.Americans usually say what they are thinking.
D.Americans do not say what they think or feel clearly.
（5）From the passage we can infer(推断) that __________.
A.Japanese businessmen are good at business
B.foreign businessmen should try to know Japanese ways of doing business
C.foreign businessmen must be more polite
D.you must learn from Japanese businessmen if you want to succeed

Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. Once at midnight, an old lady in her 80s took my taxi. She gave me an address, and then asked, "Could you drive through downtown?"

"Oh, I don't mind," she said. "I'm in no hurry. I'm on my way to a hospice (临终关怀医院）. I don't have any family left. The doctor says I don't have very long time."
I quietly shut off the meter. "What route would you like me to take?" I asked.

"There are other passengers."
