阅读理解。     All my friends at school smoked. My dad smoked, he didn"t want me to smoke, but my friends kept
saying I was stupid. They asked when I was going to grow up. So I started to smoke when I was sixteen
and after a month I couldn"t stop. But two years later I could feel what smoking was doing to me. I
couldn"t run far, and I coughed every morning. I got very ill and decided to stop. It wasn"t easy, but now I"ve done it, and I feel better. Now I have money for other things.
     If you smoke, you are twice as likely to die from a heart attack. And the more you smoke, the earlier
the heart attack is likely to be. For example, a 50-year-old person who smokes more than 20 cigarettes
a day, is four times more likely to have heart disease than a non-smoker of the same age.
     What does smoking do to the heart? First of all, it makes the heart beat faster and increases the blood pressure. The cigarette smoke also reduces the amount of oxygen in the blood. Consequently, the heart
has to work harder, with less oxygen. Finally, your arteries will narrow faster if you smoke.
     So if you want to reduce your chances of getting heart disease, the answer is easy, not to smoke.
Don"t copy your friends and other people who smoke. If you smoke, find out how to stop. Stopping isn"t
easy, but you"ll be healthier, and…

阅读理解。    Plants and animals, including humans, need food and water to live on. These are from the  natural
resources(资源) on Earth. To protect these resources, we need to keep the air clean and the water
drinkable. We need to keep the soil (土壤)healthy. How do we do that?
Protect the land
    The soil that covers fields and farms provides much of the food we eat. Human activities  such  as
plowing(耕) fields, mining(采矿), and building highways can destroy (破坏)the land. Erosion  happen
when wind and water carry away the soil. Soil erosion can turn rich farmland into a desert  wasteland.
So does this mean we shouldn"t build a highway or plow a field? Of course not. But  it does mean  we
might think about Earth-friendly ways of doing those things.
Today farmers plow their fields in different ways to prevent erosion. They try to use less water for their
crops. They keep animals from eating the growing grass in  just one  area. Farmers also plant  trees  to
prevent erosion from happening.
Save the Trees
    Another human activity that damages the land is deforestation(采伐森林). People take away a large
number of trees from a forest. Millions of square kilometers of forest disappear each year. When  this
happens, many plants and animals lose their  places to live. They may die  out, or  become  very  few.
Scientists haven"t even discovered all the living things in the forest. We may be losing some without even
knowing they are there. Trees absorb (吸收)and use carbon dioxide (二氧化碳)when they make food.
Environmentalists encourage careful management of the forests. They ask people to replant trees  after
they cut down the forest.
Recycle, Reuse, Reduce
    People throw a piece of paper into the wastebasket after using it. The paper becomes trash.  Where
does the trash go next? Much of our trash ends up in landfills(垃圾填埋地). They take up valuable land
and sometimes pollute the water, air, and land around them. More than a third of the  trash in  landfills  is
paper. Recycling, reusing, and reducing what you throw away can cut down on the need for more landfills. In fact, we can recycle about eighty percent of household trash.1. What does the underlined word erosion mean?A. Plowing fields and mining
B. Cutting down trees and farming.
C. Wind and rain carrying away soil.
D. Building highways on the farmland.2. Why do we need to save the trees?A. To discover more new trees every year.
B. To encourage careful management of the forest.
C. To take away a large number of trees from the forest.
D. To keep good places for animals and plants to live in.3. How much of the trash can we recycle?A. All the trash.
B. Very little.
C. One third.
D. Four fifths.4. What"s the purpose of the author writing the passage?A. To ask people to look for places to plant trees.
B. To tell people how to protect natural resources.
C. To show how the lands are destroyed by people.
D. To discuss ways of protecting animals and plants.

阅读理解。     If you go to a fast food restaurant, you will probably see a lot of teenagers. Today, many teenagers
are overweight, and some of this because of their bad eating habits. Most teenagers love food with a lot
of fat, oil, salt, and sugar. People often call this kind of food "junk food".
     But bad eating habits go beyond fast food. We find many teenagers eat unhealthily. Some don"t have
breakfast before they go to school. During the day, some don"t have a proper meal for lunch. In a recent
survey  at one school , scientists found that  over  two thirds of   the students didn"t follow a healthy diet.
They didn"t like vegetables, and many of them didn"t like fruits. They preferred to eat food with a lot of
salt, sugar, or fat.
     Parents today also worry about their children"s diet. Some doctors give the following advice:
     Teenagers shouldn"t eat too much junk food.
     Teenagers shouldn"t eat food with too much salt. Salt can cause high blood pressure in the future.
     Teenagers should eat food with less fat, oil, and sugar.
     Teenagers need to eat some fruits and vegetables every day. fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins
and have little fat.
     Teenagers need to drink more milk. Milk will help their bones grow.

阅读理解。                                                         The World"s Water Shortage
     The world is not only hungry, but it is also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you, since nearly
  70 percent (百分比) of the earth"s surface is covered with water. But about 97 percent of this huge
  amount is sea water, or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3 percent－the fresh water from
  rivers, lakes, underground, and other sources (资源). And we cannot even use all of that, because some
  of it is in the form of icebergs and glaciers(冰川). Even worse, some of it has been polluted.
     However, as things stand today, this small amount of fresh water is still enough for us. But our need for
  water is increasing (增加) rapidly－almost day by day. Only if we take steps to deal with this problem
 now can we avoid (避免) a severe (严重的) worldwide water shortage later on.
     We all have to learn how to stop wasting our valuable water. One of the first steps is to develop ways
 of  reusing it.
     Today in most large cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer system (下水道).
 From there it returns to the sea or runs into underground storage tanks. But it is possible to pipe used
 water to a purifying (净化) plant. There it can be treated with chemicals so that it can be used again, just
  as if it were fresh from a spring.
     But even if every large city purified and reused its water, we still would not have enough. All we"d have
  to do to make use of the vast reserves (贮备) of sea water in the world is to remove the salt.
     If we take these steps we"ll be in no danger of drying up.         1. The world is thirsty for water because we can only use _____ percent of the water covering the surface
   of the earth.     A. 3
    B. more than 3        
    C. less than 3    
    D. 972. Which of the following statements is Not true?     A. As things remain unchanging, this small amount of fresh water is still enough for us.
    B. Our need for water is becoming larger and larger.
    C. There will be no water shortage in the future.
    D. We should take steps to deal with the water shortage problem.    3. To reuse water, we should _____ .    A. treat it with chemicals
    B. use it only once
    C. send it out into a sewer system
    D. make it flow into underground tanks 4. In order to have enough water, we should also make use of _____ .    A. icebergs and glaciers
    B. sea water
    C. rivers and lake
    D. underground water 5. In the passage, the writer tells us _____ .    A. to make enough water
    B. to pay more attention to the water shortage problem
    C. to pipe used water to a purifying plant
    D. to reuse the water
