8．It was 3：30 in the morning and 8-year-old Walt Disney was doing what he did at that time every morning-rolling hundreds of newspapers he would soon deliver in his neighborhood．
   It was hard work for a little kid who had to go to school，then deliver another round in the evening．But delivering papers beat（比更好） picking apples for a living．That's what he'd been doing before，on his family's failing farms in Missouri．
   Walt Disney，born in December，1901，never had time for a childhood．As a result，he spent all of his adult life attempting to invent one for himself．In the process 一 almost by accident一 he created wonderful childhood memories for generation after generation of children worldwide．
   When the Disneys moved to Chicago，Walt signed up for cartooning classes，working three part-time jobs to pay for them．At 24，he created a character called Oswald the Lucky Rabbit，which was a great success．He then shifted（转移） his attention to mice，or one particular mouse called Mickey．And Mickey Mouse became an overnight success．
Success followed success，but Walt Disney pushed himself even harder．He produced Snow White and Seven Dwarfs，for which he won a special Oscar．After the Second World War，Walt   came up with the idea of Disneyland．Everyone said it was too costly a dream，but he wouldn't   listen．His great world of fantasy opened on July 17，1955．In the next seven weeks，more than one million people walked into Disneyland．The man who had spent a painful childhood now watched other people enjoy the perfect childhood world that he had created．

5．People living more than three thousand meters above sea level find it difficult to raise vegetables all year long．People living in the highlands of Peru and Bolivia，for example，cannot grow vegetables outdoors during the months of May through September．It is very cold in the highlands at that time of year．If traditional farming methods are used，vegetables will not survive．
However，there is another way to grow vegetables throughout the year in cold areas．It is a method of gardening developed by a private agency called World Neighbors．The method uses"hot houses"built below ground．A hot house is a building covered with plastic or glass in which vegetables or flowers are grown．The traditional hot house is built above ground．
The air temperature is cold in the highlands of Peru and Bolivia during the winter．But，the winter sun is hot．So，World Neighbors advises farmers there to build hot houses below ground．The design is simple．The material does not cost much．Here is how World Neighbors says to build it：Dig a hole two and one-half meters wide and six meters long．Make it about two meters deep．Build wall with a door in one end of the hole．Dig steps from the ground down to the door．
Now，build a wall along the top edge of the hole．Make it about one-half meters tall．Earth bricks work fine．Build two shorter walls on the ends．These will be uneven； one side will be as high as the existing wall．The other side will be at ground level．Leave a small opening in each of these sloping walls．This prevents the hot house from becoming too hot．Now，make the roof．Build a wood frame．Cover it with clear plastic．Connect it to the brick walls．
The underground hot house we have described is large enough for two raised vegetable beds．Each is one meter wide and six meters long．Each is seeded and watered just as if it were in a garden above ground．
The dirt walls protect the growing plants from the cold．The clear plastic roof permits the sun's heat to enter．At night，the roof should be covered with straw．This helps prevent cold air from entering．An under ground hot house this size will provide enough vegetables for one family．Groups needing more vegetables can make it bigger．

66．If you lived in Peru，youC．
A．should raise the special kinds of vegetables that can endure cold
B．could not plant at all

C．quite small
D．hotter than traditional ones
68．The hot house can be kept warm by usingD．
A．a big oven
B．an electricity heater
C．the heat of the earth's interior
D．the sun shine
69．The measure to prevent the hot house from becoming too hot is toB．
A．make the roof sloped
B．dig holes on the walls
C．make the wall not vertical
D．make the walls shorter than the ground level
70．According to the passage，the method suggested by World Neighbors isD．
A．new and difficult B．uneasy to explain
C．at trial step D．simple and practical．

12．The way we cook is important．In many countries，the two sources of heat used for cooking are nat-ural gas or electric stoves．The World Health Organization （WHO） warns that millions of people are dying every year from indoor air pollution．The WHO finds that poor cooking，heating and lighting technologies are killing millions of people each year．
     Indoor air pollution results from the use of dangerous fuels and cook stoves in the home．WHO of-ficials say nearly three billion people are unable to use clean fuels and technologies for cooking，heat-ing and lighting．And they say more than seven million people die from exposure to indoor or outdoor air pollution each year．Of that number，the WHO says about 4.3 million people die from household air pollution given off by simple biomass（生物燃料） and coal stoves．
       These findings show that the home use of poisonous fuels is to blame for many of these deaths．
These fuels inrlude wood，coal，animal waste and so on．Carlos Dora is Coordinator in the WHO's De-partment of Public Health，Environmental and Social Determinants of Health．He says people should not use unprocessed coal and kerosene （煤油） fuel indoors．He says opening a window or door to let out the harmful air will not correct the situation．It will only pollute the outdoors．"New technologies and clean fuels can rid people of this problem．"
         The United Nations found that more than 95 percent of families in suh-Saharan Africa depend on solid fuels for cooking．It says huge populations in India，China and Latin American countries，such as Cuatemala and Peru，are also at risk．
         Nigel Bruce is a professor of Public Health at the University of Liverpool．He says researchers are developing good stoves and other equipment to bum fuels in a more efficient way．"There are already many technologies for clean fuels available now．An effective and reasonably low-cost ethanol（酒精）stove that is made by Dometic （a Sweden-based company） is now being tested out．Another interesting development is electric induction stoves．"In India，you can buy an induction （屯磁） stove for about 8．AndinAfricayoucanbuyasolarlampforlessthan1．

2．Interviews are difficult to secure for job seekers these days and knowing how to write a cover letter could mean the difference between securing one or being disregarded as a candidate．These letters represent the beginning of the interview process thus care should be taken when formulating one．Employers will consider cover letters as part of the vetting（审查） process when streamlining the applicant pool．The purpose of cover letters is to provide a summary of an applicant's background in relation to an advertised job position．
First of all，a cover letter should indicate knowledge of the position being applied to．In many cases，applicants will use the same letter when applying to multiple jobs．Employers will look at this"form"letter and conclude that the applicant is not really interested in their company．Applicants should provide a general summary of why they should be considered for an interview by stating qualifications and experience related to the job．This need not be long as a few lines can usually suffice．
It is important to note that proper structure，correct grammar and spelling are also taken into consideration．It shows the employer that you are serious about the interview process by taking the time and care to formulate the cover letter in a professional manner．This can be the difference between winning the interview or going into the discarded pile．
