1.The towers,called the Bosco Verticale,are under construction in Milan.Towering over the city skyline,these are the world'S first forest in the sky apartments.
With trees equal to 10,000 square meters of forest covering 27 floors,the twin towers will be home to an astonishing 730 trees,5,000 bushes and 11,000 ground plants.
Michele Brunello,director of Boeri Studios,explained,"The idea of a vertical forest came when we were involved in a local tree planting project.We imagined the building that allowed the landscape(景观)to enter it."
Brunello'S concept is designed to save on land,which is a precious resource in the centre of a major city."We can provide the quality of life of expensive housing without consuming the resources that conventional housing would demand."he said.
Bosco Verticale has been designed as a home to a variety of plants,which planners hope will act as a filter(过滤器)to pollution from traffic,shade people from the sun and will change its appearance each season.
"People live with the trees but they don't own them-they are communal,"said Brunello."All the plants have been picked by the designers to be suitable to the height and correct side of the building.So the people aren't just choosing an apartment based on the size and view,but also they need to consider which trees and plants they will be living with."
Safety is also a major factor.If a tree Was blown down in the wind from a great height,this could be a huge problem.So we tested various trees to make sure we had the right ones.
When the sky forest is completed by the end of 2012,the structure will house the same amount of people as 50,000 square meters of conventional urban area.What'S more,it will be home to insects,birds and animals that usually live in the parks of Milan.
61.By saying"allowed the landscape to enter it"Brunello means thatC.
A.trees will be planted inside the building
B.the towers are part of the tree planting project
C.the landscape of trees and plants is part of the towers
D.the landscape of trees can be moved into the building freely
62.What does the underlined word"communal"probably mean?B
A.Expensive.    B.Public.    C.Dangerous.     D.Unaffordable.
63.Which of the following may not be considered when buying an apartment in Bosco Verticale?D
A.The size of the apartment.
B.The view of the apartment.
C.The different trees on the towers.
D.The amount of birds living with the trees.
64.Which isn't the benefit that the Bosco Verticale can bring to Milan?B
A.Cleaning the polluted air by traffic.
B.Lowering the conventional houses'price.
C.Changing its appearance with seasons.
D.Shading people from the sun.
65.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?D
A.Brunello creates a special park   
B.Bosco Verticale consumes less land
C.Italy will plant a variety oftrees  
D.Milan constructs towers of trees.

20.It was December 25,1914,only 5months into World War I.German,British,and French soldiers,already sick and tired of the senseless killing,disobeyed their superiors and started socializing with"the enemy"along two-thirds of the Western Front.
German troops held up Christmas trees with signs"Merry Christmas".Thousands of troops ran across the battlefields covered with dead bodies.They sang Christmas songs,exchanged photographs of loved ones back home,shared food and even played football.Soldiers hugged men they had been trying to kill a few short hours before.They agreed to warn each other if their officers forced them to fire their weapons,and to aim high.
Fear ran through the military leaders on both sides.They felt that their power was being challenged:soldiers declaring their brotherhood with each other and refusing to fight.Generals declared this unexpected peacemaking illegal and said that participating soldiers would face a military court.Those found guilty would be imprisoned or even shot.By March 1915the socializing movement had been destroyed and the killing machine was back in full operation.Over the next three years more than fifteen million people died in the war.
Not many people have heard the story of the Christmas Truce (休战).On Christmas Day,1988,a local radio host in Boston played"Christmas in the Trenches",a song about the Christmas Truce,several times and was   stunned by his listeners'response.Thousands of people called in,praising the song,with many moved to tears by the amazing events it described.
You can probably guess why the callers were in tears.The Christmas Truce story goes against most of what we have been taught about people.It lets us see the world as it can be and says,"This really happened once."It shows us the potential we have as humans,and contradicts all of those TV and newspaper stories that tell us how mean and heartless people are.It is like hearing that our deepest wishes really are true:the world really can be different.

24.The soldiers began socializing with the enemy becauseA.
A.they couldn't bear the meaningless killing
B.it was the best way to avoid being killed
C.they feared that they would be caught
D.their enemies were from similar backgrounds
25.How did the generals finally put an end to the soldiers'socializing?D
A.They sent the soldiers'loved ones to prison.
B.They moved the two groups of soldiers further apart.
C.They increased the number of officers to control the soldiers.
D.They warned the soldiers that they would face severe punishment.
26.The underlined word"stunned"in Paragraph 4most probably meansB.
A.satisfied         B.shocked
C.amused            D.confused
27.The author uses the story of the soldiers to imply that human beingsC.
A.are not trustworthy under stress
B.are naturally aggressive and war-like
C.are basically caring and kindhearted
D.will always do what is in their own self-interest.
