It was a Friday. As usual, the office became busier and busier. Orders to buy and sell came and went like birds. It was in the stock market, the world of money that Mr.Robert,the stockbroker, worked faster and faster. There was no room in it for the world of human feelings or the world of nature.

   Near lunchtime, everything quieted down.Mr.Robert stood by his desk with his hands full of letters. Suddenly through the open window came a smell of flowers,like the thin breath of spring.Mr.Robert stood still. This was Miss Angelia’s smell, her own and only hers.The world of the stock market disappeared. And Miss Angelia was in the next room--only twenty steps away.

   “I’ll do it now,” said Mr.Robert softly. “I’ll ask her now.Why didn’t I do it long ago?”

   He ran into her office. She looked up at him with a smile. Her face turned a soft pink.

“Miss Angelia,”he said, hurriedly, “I only have a moment to talk.I want to say something important to you,Will you be my wife?I haven’t had time to show you, but I really do love you.”

   “Why ...what are you talking about?” cried the young lady.She stood up and looked at him strangely. “Don’t you understand?” Mr. Robert asked quickly. “I want you to marry me now.”

   Miss Angelia acted very strangely. At first she seemed surprised. Then she began to cry. But then she smiled through her tears like the sun through rain. She put her arms around his neck. “But don’t you remember, darling?” she said .”We were married yesterday evening at 8:00, in the little church around the corner.”

You don't have to understand the stock market to prove a country is having a difficult economic time. You have only to look at lipstick sales to see how big an economic downturn a country faces. Sales of make-up like lipstick go up when the economy is bad and go down when the economy improves. This is called the "Lipstick Effect."

The lipstick effect goes as far back as the Great Depression of the 1930s. During this time period many jobs were lost and many factories closed, but sales of cosmetics (化妆品) rose. In Germany, although many people lost jobs, the biggest cosmetic company did not need to sack a single worker. More recently in the USA, during the hard times of 1990 and 2001 more workers were needed in the cosmetic industry while other companies were cutting workers. And it was even said that, after the terrorist attacks of September 11, lipstick sales doubled!

Researchers have discovered that when times get hard and there is less money to spend on large, expensive products like new cars, designer shoes, or jewelry, women buy little things to improve their mood. Most of these things are cosmetics and the most popular one women buy is lipstick. A new color of lipstick can sometimes be enough to brighten a woman's mood. A similar thing happens when men shop during an economic slowdown. They have less money to spend but they still want to treat themselves, so they buy smaller, less costly goods instead of sports cars or new houses.

41. What happens to sales of lipstick when the economy is good?

    A. Less lipstick is sold.

    B. It is much easier to sell lipstick.

    C. Lipstick sells at an increased price.

    D. They make up the largest part of cosmetics sales.

42. What would become of a big cosmetic company during the Great Depression?

    A. They gave employees a special job.           B. It functioned normally or even better.

    C. They would employ someone for a short time.  D. They dismissed many workers.

43. During the economic slowdown, women consider lipstick as something that______.

    A. is helpful in finding a job

    B. can provide a big change to their look

    C. is more necessary than any other goods

    D. can give them great satisfaction at a low cost

44. Which best describes people's shopping habits during an economic slowdown?

    A. They choose goods they value most.       B. They shop at the second-hand market.

    C. They buy cheap and cheerful products.    D. They spend less money on small goods.

45. What's the best title for the text?
    A. Lipsticks May Be an Economic Mirror.    

    B. The Cosmetics Market Leads a Nation.
    C. Lipstick Gives the Economy a Big Push.  

    D. Women's Love for Cosmetics Never Changes.

Last Saturday I went to the library as usually. At about noon, I was enjoying my reading near a lake while suddenly I heard someone crying for help. I went up to see what was happen. I was shocking to find a little child struggling in the water in the distance while many people were standing by without doing anything. Without any hesitation, I had pushed through the crowd as I took off my coat but jumped into the water quickly. I managed to reach him and carry him back to safety. To his great relief, the kid saved.

   I was proud of what I had done. I wish everyone can give a hand when someone else is in need.

   My wife and I moved into our home two years ago. We had a yard with a lot of  41  . Very often when we have flowers, Denise or I would plant some between the rocks, just to add some __42__ to the area.

   Last summer, I found a tiny little    43    in the yard that I could not immediately identify. I knew I didn’t plant it and Denise said she didn’t either. We decided to let it   44   growing until we could find out what it was.

Shanghai Disneyland cost $5.5 billion to build and it is said to be the cheapest out of all the Disneyland resorts. Take the following advice to make a wonderful trip.

1. Buy Souvenirs in Advance

Disney has covered practically every industry, which makes it easy to find Disney items anywhere, from Walmart, Target, and your local grocery stores to department stores and Amazon. You can save a lot of money by purchasing items before your trip at these less-expensive retailers(零售商) than at Disneyland.

2. Make an Autograph Book (签名簿)

An autograph book is seen as a must-have by many Disneyland enthusiasts and is a memory you can take home with you. These books can cost anywhere from $7.95 to $19.95 at the Disney Store and up to $30 for the latest-and-greatest autograph book at Disneyland, such as the park’s 60th anniversary edition. Other options can get the job done for under $5. For example, you can buy a small, generic photo album; cute memo pads or notebooks.

3. Bring Your Own Food and Drinks

While Disney’s official policy says it does not allow outside food or drinks, Disneyland does allow most food items. Take snacks for throughout the day or pack a lunch to enjoy in the picnic area just outside the main entrance of the park.

4. Arrange Your Trip Around the Low Season Times

Lots of things, from airfare to souvenirs, can get more expensive during Disneyland’s busier time of the year. To make the most of your money, plan your trip during the park’s low season. The months of September through March—excluding December—are not as crowded at the parks, and even hotels can be less expensive during these months.

On Thursday afternoon Ms Clarke locked the door and went to the women’s club as usual. It was a pleasant way of passing time __31__ an old woman who lived alone.

When she came home she sensed something __32__. Had someone got in? the back door and the windows were all __33__ and there was no sign of forced entry. Had __34__ been taken? She went from room to room, __35__, and found her camera and spare watch __36__.

The following Thursday she went out at her __37__ time, but didn’t go to the club. Instead, she took a short walk in a park nearby and came home, __38__ herself in through the back door. She settled down to wait and see what would __39__

It was 4 o’clock when the front doorbell rang. Ms. Clarke was __40__ tea at the time. The bell rang again, and the next moment she heard her letterbox being pushed open. __41__ the kettle of boiling water, she moved quietly __42__ the door. A piece of wire appeared through the letter-box, and then a __43__. The wire turned and caught around the knob on the door lock. Ms Clarke raised the kettle and __44__ the water over the hand. __45__ was heard outside as the wire fell to the floor and hand was pulled back, which was followed by the sound of running feet.

When I first started university, I remembered hearing about bone marrow(骨髓)donation during Freshman’s Week. Some students volunteers from a group called Marrow tried to convince me to attend an event so I could learn more about it. The word “bone” immediately made me think that donating would be a painful procedure, so I refused. Back then, there was no way I could have known three years later, I would be one of the many people that desperately needs a bone marrow donor to save their lives.

I am currently waiting to be matched with a donor and if I am lucky enough to find a good match, it will be this lovely stranger that saves my life. I received my cancer diagnosis in June. It is only at that time that I realized how ignorant I had been about the bone marrow donation process.

The process of donating stem cells is actually very simple. In 90% of cases, donors are asked to donate their blood stem cells, the other 10% will give their bone marrow. Lots of donors say that both these things are virtually pain free, and nothing to be scared about. Being a bone marrow donor should be something to be proud of, as every donor has an opportunity to save someone’s life!

At the moment I know that the doctors are busy searching for a match, I simply live every day in the hope that there will be a donor right for me. If I have an opportunity for life, I won’t waste it.

When I was a first year at university, I made the mistake of walking away from becoming a stem cell donor. Please don’t make the same mistake that I did. There are so many people out there, including myself, that need your help; and by undergoing a simple, pain-free procedure, you could have the chance to proudly say that you saved someone’s life.

28. Why did the author refuse to learn more about bone marrow donation before?  

A. Because she could get nothing from it.  

B. Because she thought that donating would be painful.  

C. Because she had known nothing about it.  

D. Because she was in poor health.

B. The author was confident about the bone marrow donation.  

C. The author needs the bone marrow donation now.  

D. The author donates her bone marrow to save others.

30. The author needs the bone marrow because she got          .  

A. cancer          B. headache          C. flu              D. high blood pressure

31. The author told us her story to

C. recall her painful past.

I learned another lesson about love a few years later. My father often  46  me early in the morning. “Buy Xerox. It’s a good sharp price,” he might say when I answered the phone. No pleasant  47  or inquiry about my life

, just financial instructions. This manner of his  48  me and we often quarreled. But one day, I thought about my father’s success in business and realized that his concern for my financial security lay behind his  49  morning calls. The next time he called and told me to buy a stock, I  50 him.

    When my social style has conflicted with that of my friends, I’ve often felt  51  . For example, I always return phone calls52 and regularly contact my friends. I expect the same from them. I had one friend who rarely called, answering my messages with short e-mails. I rushed to the53 : She wasn’t a good friend. My anger54 as the holidays approached. But then she came to a gathering I 55  and handed me a beautiful dress I had fallen in love with when we did some window-shopping the previous month. I was56 at her thoughtfulness, and regretful for how I’d considered her to be 57 . Clearly I needed to change my expectations of friends.

Far too often, I ignored their 58   expressions, eagerly expecting them to do things in my 59 . Over the years, however, I’ve learned to   60  other persons’ love signs.

My dream is to become a school teacher in the future. In fact, I had the dream of becoming a teacher since my childhood. In my opinion, without teachers, no society could make progresses. There is no doubt whether teachers play an important role in children growth. Not only do teachers pass on knowledge for children, but they also teach children how to behave themselves. Comparing with other jobs, teaching is hard and the pay is lower. And to me, what great fun it is to be with children! They make me to feel young forever because I’ll study harder and try my best to realize my dream.

BEIJING, China ---Pollution in China remains very serious as the country's rapid economic growth brings new environmental problems, a minister said Saturday.

Vice Environment Minister Zhang Lijun said China has made progress on environmental protection, but admitted that its rapid economic growth over the past decade has had a negative effect on the environment.

"Our rapid economic development has continuously brought our country new environmental problems, particularly dangerous chemicals, electronic waste and so on. These environmental pollutants (污染物) bring new problems and affect human health," Zhang told a news conference.

He said that emissions(排放)of traditional pollutants remain high and some areas have failed to meet government standards.

China has pledged to continue reducing emissions this year of three key air pollutants--- ammonia nitrogen, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide. The government has also promised to bring down demand for chemical oxygen---a measure of water pollution by l.5 percent from the 2010 levels.

In the last five years, there were 912 "environmental emergencies" involving heavy metal pollution, including several well-publicized instances of mass contamination, Zhang said. Thousands of children were affected by lead poisoning in several provinces in 2009 and 2010 because they lived near metal smelters or battery factories.

The minister noted that rapid development in the next five years would increase the need for China to improve environmental protection and shift to a more sustainable(可持续的) model of economic development from its dependence on industries which consume huge quantities of energy.

China is focusing on clean energy, including solar, wind and nuclear power, as one way to reduce its dependence on coal, which generates three-quarters of its electricity and is also used for winter heating in northern cities.

    You might take a car, a bus, or a bike to school. But in Bangladesh, instead of waiting for a school bus to come down their street, many students wait for a school boat to come down the river. That’s right—these students attend school on a boat!

    Bangladesh is very close to sea level.______36______ The flooding creates many problems. For the nearly 160 million people living there, the periodic flooding means that they are often unable to access roads, electricity, or telephones.

    Growing up in Bangladesh, Mohammed Rezwan was often troubled by these disruptions(破坏). ______37_____ The name means “self-reliance (自力更生).” The purpose of the organization is to help the people of Bangladesh receive an education and also to bring technology and an improved quality of life to poor people in remote areas of the country.

The only difference was that they floated on a river.

    ______38______ Today Rezwan and his organization operate 88 boats in northern Bangladesh. About half the boats are used as schools, and the other half are used as temporary houses during the flood season. In addition to the schools and the temporary housing, there are also a floating technology and training center, a library that allows students to check out books, and a health-care center. The school boats travel along the rivers and pick up students for classes that include computer technology, agriculture, and human rights.

Special equipment on the boats also projects lessons onto big screens made from sail cloth. People can come down to the river bank to watch films.
