    [1] The first Earth Day was in 1970. People were beginning to worry about what we were doing to our environment (环境). So they set up Earth Day to tell everyone about their worries.
    [2] In 2007, organizers in over 150 countries planned over 4,000 big events. But Earth Day is not just about marches (游行) and big events. In the week around Earth Day (22 April) there were many thousands of smaller, local events. These events dealt with environmental problems in the neighborhood.
    [3] The World Wide Fund for Nature made a list of 5 things that each person could do to save the environment.
    ·Don’t leave the tap running.
    ·Turn off lights when you leave a room.
    ·Turn off your computer every night.
    ·Wash your clothes, and yourself, in cold or warm water, not hot water.
    ·Dishwashers use as little water as possible.
    [4] If we all do at least 2 of these all the time, we can make a big difference.
    小题1:What is the purpose for people to set up Earth Day?
    _____________________________________________________________________________
    小题2:When is Earth Day?

    小题5:Besides the five, what else can you do to save our environment? (One example is ok.)
    _____________________________________________________________________________

    小题2:细节题。根据第二段第二行In the week around Earth Day (22 April) 。
    小题3:根据第三部分第一行·Don’t leave the tap running.
    小题4:推理题。根据·Dishwashers use as little water as possible.说明这种机器可能可能用水较少，所以才会推荐我们使用这样的机器，以保护饮用水。

    阅读下面短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后面的字数要求）。
    ［1］Why not take a more measured approach to a happier, healthier you? From your office to your bedroom to your car, these small changes can have a big impact on your life.
    ［2］Wake up ten minutes earlier. When you start your morning in a hurry, you set a stressful tone for the day. (I’m speaking from experience here.) Even ten extra minutes in the morning can help you feel more calm, collected, and ready to face the day.
    ［3］Spend five minutes in silence or meditation. You’ll soon realize, whether it’s in the morning or evening, that five minutes of sitting quietly with your eyes closed feels a lot longer than five minutes. But just this short silence can foster a quietness that carries through the day. When things go off the rails, simply close your eyes and recall that earlier quietness.
    ［4］Walk. Is there one trip you’d normally make in the car (to work, the gym, the store) that you can make on foot? Walking saves money (good for you) and gas (good for the environment) and burns calories (around 2,000 steps equal one mile), which is good for your health.
    ［5］Tell someone you love them. Life is never long enough to say this as many times as it should be said. Whether your mother, a friend, a significant other, or your dog, make it a habit to tell someone at least once a day that you love him or her. While it may feel strange at first, you will never regret it.
    ［6］Stand (or sit) up straight. Good posture prevents back and neck pain and even build confidence. When driving, tilt your rearview mirror（后视镜）up a bit. You’ll have to sit up to see. At your desk, the top of your computer screen should be at eye level. Put a small cushion in the curve of your lower back, and your spine will become straight.

    (1)The half-empty coffee cups, still standing next to their plates, tell of a morning like others. And yet, that grey covering of dust that everything wears tells a different story: it tells of screams, tears, confusion, terror and blood.
    (2)Now the restaurant in the World Trade Center will never again serve breakfast. And never again will all those people go there to eat or work --- those people of America whose faces have entered our hearts. So many people whose faces we associate with life and liveliness _______ tonight. So many words remain unsaid, and so much happiness has been destroyed. In their places are tear-stained faces. My generation has seen this. On Monday, a fight with my sister and a bad grade seemed to be the biggest problems in the world. Tonight, so many people across the country know that America’s pain is at its worst ever. We have read about World War II, and we have seen the black-and-white pictures. But to most students, that’s an event on a textbook page that would never happen today.
    (3) After all, this was a time of peace and wealth --- the United States was powerful and successful. There would be no more wars, and we were lucky to live in such a time. But when those planes hit; when firefighters with terror on their faces ran among the parts of the buildings that had fallen; when people screamed for their family members; when history was unfolding before our eyes, in full, clear colour ---- then we knew the world had been changed.
    (4) Everything that had happened in the past seemed to take on new life through September 11, 2001. And when they say this is the worst wound in American soil, I say, I thought this place was an empire. And I say, I thought this was a time of peace. And I say, I thought we were safe.
    (5) Knowing how many human beings turned to ashes in a second, and seeing some jumps from the buildings, I know that my generation is growing up in a world where mankind can still be evil. But seeing those heroes risk lives among the castle-like ruins, and seeing the eager blood donors at the hospitals, my generation has learned that tears are allowed, that mankind can also be beautiful, and that the ghost of evil will never defeat the spirit of good.

    When Dan Shaw gets up from the sofa in his home, Cuddles is never far away. When he wants to go outside, he doesn’t take Cuddles out for a walk—Cuddles takes him for a walk. Cuddles is clearly no ordinary family pet. It is a two-foot-high miniature horse and serves as the guiding eyes of Shaw, who is blind.
    When Shaw lost his sight, his wife suggested he apply for a guide dog. Shaw, an animal lover, said he couldn’t bear to part with a dog (which usually lives about eight to ten years) and get used to a new one, perhaps several times in his life.
    Then Shaw heard of a program about the tiny guide horses. He learned that the horse possess many qualities that that make them an excellent choice for guiding people. They are clean, friendly, smart and have great memories. They can be trained to remain calm in noisy and crowded places. Best of all, they live for 25-25years, which would enable Shaw to have the same guide companion for most or all of his life.
    Shaw immediately applied to be and was accepted as the first person to receive a guide horse. The instant he met Cuddles, he knew he was making the right choice. Then he began his training.
    Through training, Shaw and Cuddles learned to find way on busy streets, step over curbs（便道沿儿）and find elevator buttons. Cuddles even demonstrated（显示）its ability to step in front of Shaw and block him, to prevent him from walking into a dangerous situation. The little horse also expertly led Shaw through busy shopping malls. They got along without any difficulty. Now Shaw is confident that Cuddles will change his life for the better.

    Global difference in intelligence is a sensitive topic, long filled with a large number of different opinions. But recent data has indeed shown cognitive (认知的) ability to be higher in some countries than in others. What's more, IQ scores have risen as nations develop --- a phenomenon known as the "Flynn effect". Many causes have been put forward for both the intelligence difference and the Flynn effect, including education, income, and even non-agricultural labor. Now, a new study from researchers at the University of New Mexico offers another interesting theory：intelligence may be linked to infectious-disease rates.
    The brain, say author Christopher Eppig and his colleagues, is the "most costly organ in the human body". Brainpower consumes almost up to 90 percent of a newborn's energy. It's clear that if something affects energy intake while the brain is growing, the impact could be long and serious. And for vast parts of the globe, the biggest threat to a child's body -- and therefore brain ---is parasitic (由寄生虫引起的) infection. These illnesses threaten brain development __________. They can directly attack live tissue, which the body must then try every means to replace. They can invade the digestive pipe and block nutritional intake. They can rob the body's cells for their own reproduction. And then there's the energy channeled (输送) to the immune system to fight the infection.
    Using data on national "disease burdens" (life years lost due to infectious diseases) and average intelligence scores, the authors found they are closely associated. The countries with the lowest average IQ scores have the highest disease burdens without exception. On the contrary, nations with low disease burdens top the IQ list.
    If the study holds water, it could be revolutionary for our understanding of the still-confusing variation in national intelligence scores.

    There are all kinds of stress ( 压力) in our daily lives such as stress from work, stress from study and stress from examinations. How to manage stress is thus a very important problem that we have to deal with properly.  Stress itself doesn’t exist. It’s only because we consider things to be bad and regard all of them as our own fault and won’t forgive ourselves. As we all know, there is nothing you can do without error. So it’s impossible to expect everything to be perfect. If we have done our best,  although not successfully, there is nothing to regret. And we don’t need to blame ourselves continuously. In fact we have done a quite good job. Then we will feel the stress less. We will stay healthy and do well in the future. Eventually we will be successful.
    （1）请根据阅读信息填写下面句子
    小题1:According to the passage, the stress that the students have is from _______ and _______.

    What is the hottest topic at your school recently? In Hangzhou Yongjin Middle School, it’s money.
    The school held an activity called“making money”last weekend. About 200 Junior 1 and Junior 2 students
    were divided into 30 teams. They went out                        . What did they choose to sell? Some
    sold newspapers; some chose bottled water; some sold environmentally friendly shopping bags and bamboo
    baskets.
    Hu Qing’s team decided to sell some us useful books in front of the Children Activity Center. They thought
    parents would like to buy the books for their children. But unfortunately, they met urban management officers.
    The officers asked them to leave.“We played hide-and-seek with the offices for the whole morning,”said Hu.
    “Finally we had to give up.”
    Wang Bing and her team sold ice cream in a square. They didn’t meet any officers. But few people were
    interested in what they were selling. The team then put up a board saying“For Country Kids”. It worked. More
    people came to their stall(小摊). A foreigner even gave them 100 Yuan.“He didn’t want any change. He said he
    wanted to help the children,” said Wang. “We were touched.”Later that day they gave the 100 Yuan and more
    to the “Project Hope”office.
    Meng Zhaoxiang and his team were luckier. They sold all their cakes in four hours, spending 39.5 Yuan and
    getting back 80 Yuan. They made 40.5 Yuan. “It was not easy to make the money,”said Meng. “Some people
    just looked. Others just tasted but didn’t buy. Now I know how hard it is for our parents to make money we need
    to lead happy lives.”
