                  Going green seems to be fad(时尚) for a lot of people these days.    41     that is good or bad, we can’t really say, but for the two of us, going green is not a fad   42     a lifestyle.

                  On April 22,2011,we decided to go green every single day for an   43     year. This meant doing 365 different green things, and it also meant   44    ourselves to go green beyond easy things.  45     recycle and reduce our energy, we had to think of 365 different green things   46    and this was no easy task.

                    47    the idea of going green every single day for a year, our  Green Year started. My   48    and I decided to educate people about   49    they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the   50  . We wanted to push the message   51    every little bit helps.

                  Over the course of our Green Year, we completely changed our   52   . We now shop at   53    stores. We   54    less meat, choosing green food. We have greatly reduced our buying we don’t need. We have   55    half of what we owned through websites. Our home is kept clean by vinegar(醋) and lemon juice, with no   56    cleaners. We make our own butter, enjoying the   57    of homemade fresh bread. In our home office anyone   58    doing something un-green might be punished.

                  Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year. We are grateful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate   59   . We believe that we do have the   60   to change things and help our planet.

            • 2.      Not long ago, many doctors in the West laughed at the suggestion that they might learn something
              from traditional Asian systems of healing. Most of them thought that Asian herbal (药草的) medicine
              and acupuncture(针灸) were believed in only by simple people who knew no better. Western doctors
              relied mainly on chemical cures as the safest and surest way to treat illnesses. The scientific age of
              antibiotics(抗生素), "miracle drugs" and heart transplants encouraged the public to that there must be
              a pill for every illness. It was true that often the drug companies provided what the public wanted: a
              speedy temporary cure and didnot remove the real cause of the illness. Moreover, some people actually
              became ill through taking too much medicine.
                   Many people in the West are now beginning to look for more natural cures for their illnesses and
              often they turn to the ancient wisdom of the East. There are some doctors in Britain now who offer their
              patients acupuncture treatment. Recently an Indian company which produces a natural medicine based
              on the biba root has sold some to Germany. The World Health Organization(WHO) encourages
              doctors not to rely too greatly on expensive Western medicines but to choose them carefully and use
              also their traditional herbal cures.
                   The mixture of Eastern and Western medicine has been practiced very successfully in China. China is
              still the only country in the world where the traditional doctor using herbal medicine and acupuncture is
              as respected as the Western-trained doctor. Through China all types of doctors are expected to work
              together. Western-style doctors are required to take at least a one-year course in traditional medicine,
              and the acupunctures must also study the basics of  western medicine. China's way of "having the best
              of both worlds" has greatly impressed many visiting doctors from the West.
                   Experts from the WHO have decided that the time has come to study herbal medicine very carefully
              and to decide, by carefully controlled scientific experiments, what good these medicine might do. They
              are especially interested in finding cures for illnesses which Western medicine has found "incurable". Six
              WHO units have been set up in Hong Kong, Seoul, Sri Lanka, London and Chicago, and so far the
              results have been encouraging.
              1. What conclusion can we draw from the first paragraph?
              A. Miracle drugs are born with science.
              B. Chemical cures have got some side-effects if taken too much.
              C. Chemical cures are better than Asian systems of healing because of its immediate response.
              D. Drug companies are willing to meet the public demands.
              2. What is the true reason for Western doctors to turn to the ancient wisdom of the East ?
              A. Herbal medicine are less expensive.
              B. Western medicines can't work very well in some areas.
              C. China has already set a good example of combining Eastern and Western medicines.
              D. All of the above.
              3. What do you think a Chinese doctor should learn?
              A. Chinese medicine only.            
              B. Western medicine only.
              C. Both with different emphasis.      
              D. Both equally.

                   Starting the day on an egg could keep your blood pressure (血压) under control, research suggests.
              Scientists have shown that eggs produce proteins with a function similar to that of powerful blood
              pressurelowering drugs.
                   The researchers, from the University of Alberta in Canada, showed that when eggs come in contact
              with stomach enzymes (酶) they produce a protein that acts in the same way as ACE inhibitors, drugs
              taken by millions around the world to lower blood pressure. Fried eggs proved particularly effective, but
              more work is needed to show the effects outside a lab and in the human body.
                   Earlier this month, British researchers declared that, contrary to popular beliefs, it is healthy to go to
              work on an egg. They concluded that the type of cholesterol (胆固醇) found in eggs has little effect on
              increasing heart disease risks.
                   Researcher Professor Bruce Griffin, from the University of Surrey, said, "The wrong beliefs linking
              egg eating to high blood cholesterol and heart disease must be corrected. The amount of fat in our diet
              has an effect on blood cholesterol that is several times greater than the relatively small amount of
              cholesterol found in eggs. The UK public do not need to limit the number of eggs they eat. They can be
              encouraged to include them in a healthy diet as they are one of nature's most nutritious foods."
                   The British Heart Foundation dropped its threeeggaweek limit in 2005.However,almost half of
              Britons believe the limit still applies.
              1. From the text we know that ACE inhibitors are________.
              A. a kind of medicine      
              B. a kind of protein
              C .a kind of illness          
              D. a kind of food
              2. According to what Professor Bruce said , eggs________.
              A. are the most nutritious food
              B. have no effect on blood cholesterol
              C. can be included in a healthy diet
              D. are forbidden to be eaten in the UK
              3. We can infer from the text that________.
              A. drugs to lower blood pressure will be replaced by eating eggs
              B. stomach enzymes mixed with eggs can cure heart diseases
              C. most Britons agree the threeeggaweek limit should be dropped
              D. about 50% of Britons think eating an egg a day is bad for their health
              4. The text is meant________.
              A. to introduce scientific findings about eggs
              B. to introduce a medicine made from eggs
              C. to tell people how to lower their blood pressure
              D. to advise people to eat as many eggs as possible

                                                                    The Monster of Lake Tianchi
                   The "Monster of Lake Tianchi" in the Changbai Mountains in Jilin province, northeast China, is back in
              the news after several recent sightings. The director of a local tourist office, Meng Fanying, said the monster,
              which seemed to be black in colour, was ten metres from the edge of the lake during the most recent sighting.
              "It jumped out of the water like a seal-about 200 people on Changbai's western peak saw it," he said. Although
              no one really got a clear look at the mysterious creature, Xue Junlin, a local photographer, claimed that its head
              looked like a horse. 
                   In another recent sighting, a group of soldiers claim they saw an animal moving on the surface of the water.
              The soldiers, who were walking along the side of the lake, watched the creature swimming for about two
              minutes. "It was greenish-black and had a round head with 10-centimetre horns", one of the soldiers said.
                   A third report came from Li Xiaohe, who was visiting the lake with his family. He claims to have seen a
              round black creature moving quickly through the water. After three or four hundred metres it dived into the
              water. Ten minutes later the monster appeared again and repeated the action. Mr Li Xiaohe said that he and his
              family were able to see the monster clearly because the weather was fine and the lake was calm.
                   There have been reports of monsters in Lake Tianchi since the beginning of the last century, although no
              one has seen one close up. Some photos have been taken but they are not clear because it was too far away.
              Many people think the monster may be a distant cousin of the Loch Ness monster in Scotland. They also think
              that there might be similar creatures in other lakes around the world. Scientists, however, are sceptical. They
              say that the low-temperature lake is unlikely to be able to support such large living creatures.
                   Lake Tianchi is the highest volcanic lake in the world. It is 2,189 metres high and covers an area of about
              ten square kilometres. In places it is more than 370 metres deep.
              1. How many sightings of the monster does the article report?

                   In today's world, almost everyone knows that air pollution and water pollution are harmful to people'
              health. However, not all the persons know that noise is also a kind of pollution, and this is harmful to
              people' health, too.
                   People who work and live under noisy conditions usually become deaf today. However, scientist believe
              that 10 percent of workers in Britain are being deafened by the noise where they work. Many of the workers
              who print newspapers and books, and who weave cloth become deaf. Quite a few people living near airports
              also become deaf. Recently it was discovered that many teenagers in America could hear no better than
              65-year-old persons, for these young people like to listen to pop music and pop music is a kind of noise,
              Besides, noise produced by jet planes or machines will make people ill or even drive them mad.
                   It is said a continuous noise of over 85 decibels can cause deafness. Now the government in many
              countries have made laws to control noise and make it less than 85 decibels.
                   In China, the government is trying to solve not only air and water pollution problems but also noise
              problems.
