Henry was an American short-story writer, a master of surprise endings, who wrote about the life of ordinary people in New York City. William Sydney Porter (O. Henry) was born in North Carolina. His father was a physician (医师). When William was three, his mother died, and he was raised by his grandmother and aunt. At the age of fifteen he left school, and then worked in a drugstore. He moved to Houston, where he had a number of jobs, including that of bank clerk. After moving to Austin, Texas, in 1882, he married. In 1884 he started a humorous weekly The Rolling Stone. When the weekly failed, he joined The Houston Post as a reporter and columnist (专栏作家). In 1897 he was found guilty of embezzling (挪用) money, although there has been much debate over his actual guilt(犯罪). While in prison William started to write short stories to earn money to support his daughter Margaret. His first work, Whistling Dicks Christmas Stocking (1899), appeared in McClures Magazine. After doing three years of the five years sentence, William came out of the prison in 1901 and changed his name to O. Henry. O. Henry moved to New York City in 1902 and from December 1903 to January 1906 he wrote a story a week for The New York World, also publishing in other magazines. Henrys first collection Cabbages and Kings appeared in 1904. The second，The Four Million, was published two years later and included his well-known stories The Gift of the May and The Furnished Room. O. Henry published 10 collections and over 600 short stories during his lifetime.O Henrys last years were shadowed by ill health and financial problems. He married Sara Lindsay Coleman m 1907, but the marriage was not happy, and they separated a year later. O. Henry died on June 5, 1910, in New York. 28. What do we know about O. Henrys stories? A. They have unexpected endings. B. They were written in New York. C. Theyre actually the authors own experiences. D. Theyre about high-class people. 29. It was quite possible that O. Henry _.A. worked as a journalist after he was out of prison B. was wrongly sentenced C. stole money to support his daughter WWW.ziyuanku.comD. had a happy childhood 30. O. Henry published The Four Million in the year _.A. 1899 B. 1904 C.1906 D.190731. We can learn that O. Henry died _. A. of too much sadness C. of too much aging B. from his wifes ill-treatment D. from sickness and poverty DAsk someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling(再循环). Recycling in the home is very important of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place. The total amount of packaging(包装) increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical households waste in the UK. In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.WWW.ziyuanku.comToo much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of it for carrying this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps, but the process（过程）itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, a few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to connect packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But it also applies(适用于) to a wide range of other products, which often have far more packaging than necessary. There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realise just how much unnecessary material we are collecting. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb.WWW.ziyuanku.com32. What does the underlined phrase “over-consumption” refer to? A. Using too much packaging. B. Recycling too many wastes.C. Making more products than necessary.D. Having more material than is needed.33. The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show _.A. the decrease of household wasteB. the increase of packaging recyclingC. the rapid growth of super marketsD. the fact of packaging overuse34. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A. Unpackaged products are of bad quality.WWW.ziyuanku.comB. Supermarkets care more about packaging.C. It is improper to judge quality by packaging.D. Other products are better packaged than food.35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Fighting wastefulness is difficult.B. Needless material is mostly recycled.C. People like collecting recycled waste.D. The author is proud of their consumer culture.第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Right now you are reading English. That means that you are using your brain in a very active way. Reading is a very active process. 36 . When you read a text, you have to do some or all of these: Imagine a scene in your head Understand clearly what the writer is trying to say Agree or disagree with the writer There are also many advantages connected with reading, including: 37 You will usually meet with new words when you read. If there are too many new words for you, then the level is too high and you should read something simpler. But if there are, say, a maximum of five new words per page, you will learn this vocabulary easily. You may not even need to use a pocket dictionary because you can guess the meaning from the rest of the text. 38 . A model for writing When you read, it gives you a good example for writing. Texts that you read show you structures and expressions that you can use when you write. Seeing “correctly structured” English When people write, they usually use “correct” English with a proper grammatical structure. 39 . So, by reading you see and learn grammatical English naturally. 40 You can read as fast or as slowly as you like. You can read ten pages in 30 minutes, or take one hour to explore just one page. It doesnt matter. The choice is yours. You cannot easily do this when speaking or listening. This is one of the big advantages of reading because different people work at different speeds.A. Working at your own speedB. Learning vocabulary in context(语境)C. This is not always true when people speakD. Focusing on exactly what you want to learnE.
