  The workers who brought the girl to the orphanage(孤儿院)knew little about her.The streets where they found her had been her home for many years.Her parents were unknown.They left her long ago.At the orphanage, the girl, like all the children there, was taught to read and write.While she was studying at the orphanage, she learned something else to be independent(独立).At twenty-one, she left the orphanage and began work as a secretary(秘书).And then, in 1975, while she was still working as an ordinary secretary, something special happened.She entered the Miss Hong Kong competition and won it.This was the turning point in her life.Now her name, Mary Cheung, was known to everybody.

  Mary entered the competition because she wanted to show that orphanage girls could be something.Winning the competition gave her the chance to start a new life.This led her first into television and then into business as a manager.When she was working as a manager, she had trouble with her reports."My English just wasn't good enough." She said.Luckily, she had a boyfriend(who later became her husband)to help her.

  Mary studied management(管理)at Hong Kong Polytechnic and graduated in 1980.She started her own business in 1985.But she did not stop developing herself.She then studied at the University of Hong Kong.Since 1987, she had spent a lot of time on photography(摄影).She has held several exhibitions(展览)of her work in many places-China, New Zealand and Paris.She still found time, however, to work on TV, write for newspapers and bring up her family.

  The Amazon rainforest is home to millions of different kinds of animals, plants, and birds.Most of the world's fresh water is here and the forest plants clean the Earth's air every day.

  Chico was born near the Amazon town, Brazil, in 1944 and started working when he was very young.Like the rest of his family, the boy got the money by taking a little rubber from the trees in the forest.(The trees are not hurt when the rubber is taken.)The forest and its people lived together comfortably(舒适地)and peacefully(和平地).

  But some people think too much about themselves and never think about the future.In 1980, the forest was burned to build roads, houses and factories.Chico was angry; he wanted to save the forest!He talked to the government workers, but they didn't listen to him.They were still clearing the rainforests to make quick, easy money.“Many voices are stronger than one,”he thought, so Chico held group meetings.He discovered that hundreds of people agreed with him.His hope grew.More people came together to try to stop the work of the forest clearers.Large areas of the forest were saved.Later he traveled to many other countries for international help.People soon became very much interested in this brave Brazilian.In the next few years Chico's name became famous all over the world.The government of Brazil started making plans to protect large areas of the Amazon rainforest.

  But as Chico's dreams started coming true, someone stopped him in the only possible way.The famous forest fighter was murdered right outside his home on December 22, 1988.Chico's life was cut short, but his brave new ideas continued in other people.One man changed the world's ideas.After his death, people around the world sent money to help Chico's work.

  The oil resources which are left will not last very long.This means that all vehicles such as cars, trains, buses, planes and ships that need oil to work will not be able to run.So it will be necessary to develop a new method of transport which doesn’t use oil.Electric vehicles are one possibility.In England, most families have at least one car and this car is used every day.It could be that only one person in the family drives the car to work or for shopping.The number of cars on the road which are almost empty perhaps helps to explain why the oil is used up so quickly.The family car is a very useful form of transport but it is also a great waste of energy, especially if it is compared with buses or trains which use less petrol per person than a car.A car traveling at 80 kilometers an hour uses only half as much petrol as a car which is traveling at 120 kilometers an hour.Clearly, it would be better if there were fewer cars on the road and more speed limits so that the oil which is left will last as long as possible.

  About 25%of England’s total consumption(消耗)of energy is domestic-it is used only in the home.Just over 20%is used for transport.Most of the energy is used in industry.It is difficult to suggest any possible energy conservation(保护)in industry because many of the suggestions would mean that some people would lose their jobs.It is important that industry produces the same amount of products using the same amount of workers.

  Clearly, conservation is not going to be the answer to the energy problem.The most it can do is to give more time for a better method to be found.The more time we have to develop new sources of energy, the better it is because there is still a lot of work to be done in order to find suitable, safe methods of producing energy.

(1)

What does the word“domestic”mean in paragraph two?

[  ]

A.

Producing energy.

B.

Fast driving.

C.

On the road.

D.

For family use.

(2)

Why will all vehicles that need oil to work not be able to run?

[  ]

A.

Oil resources which are left will be used up soon.

B.

A new system of transport will be developed.

C.

They will be replaced by electric vehicles.

D.

They waste a lot of energy.

(3)

Which is true according to the passage?

[  ]

A.

A car running at 80 km an hour uses more oil than 120 km an hour.

B.

Family cars can save much more energy than buses and trains.

C.

It is possible for English people to develop vehicles.

D.

Fewer cars on the road will help the oil last longer.

(4)

What is a better way to solve the energy problem?

[  ]

A.

Factories should produce less.

B.

Vehicles mustn’t go at a high speed.

C.

New sources of energy should be found and developed.

D.

We should cut down the number of family cars on the road.
