　　He was well-known for his works and humour．Everybody knows Mark Twain was a famous American writer．But before he was famous, even his neighbours didn’t know him well．

　　One day Mark Twain went to borrow a certain book from a neighbour in Tarry town．

　　“May I borrow a book from you?” he asked politely．“Yes, ” the neighbour told him, “but I must ask you to read it here．You know I never let anybody take my book out of my study．”

　　Some days later the neighbour wished to borrow Mark Twain’s machine for cutting grass in the garden．

　　“May I borrow your machine to cut the grass in my garden?” the neighbour asked with a smile on his face．“Certainly．” Mark Twain told him, “but I must ask you to use it here．You know that I never let anybody take my machine out of my garden．”

仔细阅读下列短文, 根据题目, 选出最佳选项. Have you ever stayed in a hotel Most Chinese hotels often provide guests with things like disposable(一次性的) toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and slippers. Many guests like the idea because they don't have to bring their own. But, if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring your own things. Starting from June, some hotels in Beijing will no longer provide guests with these disposables. They want to ask people to use less disposable things. Many disposable things are made of plastic. People throw them away after only using them once. It is a waste of natural resources(资源) and is very bad for the environment. Do you know, one Chinese person makes as much as 400 kg of waste a year! Most of that waste comes from disposable things. In Beijing, people throw away about 19,000 tons of plastic bags and 1,320 tons of plastic lunch bowls every year! Plastic can take between 100 and 400 years to break down. So the less plastic we throw out, the better. So, wherever you travel, bring your own things and use them again and again. Back at home and school, you can also do something to make our world a better place. Try to do these things in your daily life: Use cloth shopping bags, not plastic ones. After using a plastic bag, wash it out and let it dry. Then you can use it over and over again. Do not use paper cups. At your school canteen(食堂), use your own bowl and chopsticks instead of disposable ones.

　　Unlike the other parts of the body,your ears don't ask for much.They don't need to be brushed once a day like your teeth.But they really need some special care,especially if you like listening to music with earphones(耳机).

　　Maybe your mum or dad has told you,"Turn that down before you go deaf(耳聋)!" Well,they are quite right.Loud noise may cause hearing problems for a short time or even for ever.

　　Think that earphones are a good way to escape from your parents' eyes?Well,it may not be as good a way as you think.American doctors have studied a group of 4,490 people who used earphones more than 15 hours every week.The doctors found that 3,730 of them were getting hearing problems.

　　If you use earphones too long.your ears may feel painful.You may also lose your hearing for the rest (其余的) of your life.

　　So don't wear your earphones too long.Use them less than one hour a day.

　　Want good hearing? Don't forget to do the following:

　　Try to stay away from places with too much noise,like a disco.If you have to go,wear earplugs(耳塞).

　　When swimming,remember to put earplugs into your ears to stop water from getting in.

　　Never put anything sharp (尖的) into your ear.If you think you have too much earwax (耳屎),ask your mum or dad to help you clean it out.

　　Please remember these things!Then you won't be saying "WHAT???" when you are older.
