Singapore is the global center of environmental science and technology.B “Reduce，reuse and recycle”，this popular environmental slogan tells us how to reduce the amount of rubbish that ends up in landfills.The slogan is being used to deal with one possibly dangerous form of electronic junk，such as old puters，cellphones，and televisions. But this process of managing ewaste may be used in an unscrupulous way more often than not，a recent report suggests.“Many of these materials are being sent to developing nations under the excuse for reuseto bridge the digital divide，”said Richard Gutierrez，a policy researcher.One of the problems is that no one proves whether these old machines work before they hit the seaways. Because of this，the report says，ewaste is a growing problem in Lagos，Nigeria，and elsewhere in the developing world. Much of the waste ends up being thrown away along rivers and roads. Often its taken apart by poor people，who may face dangerous exposure to poisonous chemicals in the equipment.Tradesmen also pay workers a little money to get materials back such as gold and copper. This lowtech recovery process could expose workers and the local environment to many dangerous materials used to build electronics. According to Gutierrez，this shadow economy exists because the excuse for recycling and reusing electronics gives businessmen “a green passport” to ship waste around the globe. “Developing nations must take on some of the responsibility themselves，”Gutierrez said. But he added，“A greater part of this responsibility should fall on the exporting state.”China，for example，has bee a dumping place for large amounts of ewaste. The nation is beginning to take action to stop the flow of dangerous materials across its borders. The Chinese government，after many years of denials，is finally beginning to take the lead.25.The underlined word “unscrupulous” in the second paragraph most probably means “_”Aefficient Bprofitable Cunbelievable Ddishonest26.What does the fourth paragraph mainly discuss?AOld puters and TVs still work before they are sent abroad.BPoor people break up ewaste to collect some valuable materials.CA lot of ewaste is dumped in developing countries.DThe problem of ewaste is growing in developing countries.27.According to what Gutierrez said, we can learn that _. A. exporting countries should mainly be responsible for the e- waste problem B. neither developed nor developing countries should be blamed for the e-waste problem C. developing countries should mainly be responsible for the e-waste problem D. developing countries should not be blamed for the e-waste problem28.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _. A. China has hidden a large amount of e-waste in many secret places B. China has greatly changed its idea about the problem of e-waste C. China has prevented poisonous materials from entering China for a long time D. China is falling behind other countries in dealing with e-wasteCTraditionally, across the world, boys and girls attend a mixed school, where they study together. But boys schools are the perfect place to teach young men to express their emotions and involve them in activities such as art, dance and music.Boys at single-sex schools were said to be more likely to get involved in cultural and artistic activities that helped develop their emotional expressiveness, rather than feeling they had to correspond to(和相符) the boy code of hiding their emotions to be a real man.The findings of the study go against received wisdom that boys do better when taught alongside girls.Tony Little, head master of Eton, warned that boys were being failed by the British education system because it had bee too focused on girls. He criticized teachers for failing to recognize that boys are actually more emotional than girls.The research argued that boys often perform badly in mixed schools because they bee discouraged when girls do better earlier in speaking and reading skills.But in single-sex schools teachers can tailor lessons to boys learning style, letting them move around the classroom and getting them to pete in teams to prevent boredom, wrote the studys author, Abigail James, of the University of Virginia.Teachers could encourage boys to enjoy reading and writing with boy-focused approaches such as themes and characters that appeal to them. Because boys generally have more acute vision, learn best through touch, and are physically more active, they need to be given hands-on lessons where they are allowed to walk around. Boys in mixed schools view classical music as feminine（女性的） and prefer the modern genre （类型） in which violence and sexism are major themes, James wrote.Single-sex education also made it less likely that boys would feel that they had to be masterful and in charge in relationships. In mixed schools, boys feel forced to act like men before they understand themselves well enough to know what that means, the study reported.29.The author believes that a single-sex school would _.A. force boys to hide their emotions to be real menB. help boys to be more petitive in schools.C. encourage boys to express their emotions more freelyD. naturally strengthen boys traditional image of a man30.It is monly believed that in a mixed school boys _.A. behave more responsibly. B. grow up pore healthily.C. perform relatively better. D. receive a better education.31.According to Abigail James, one of the advantages of single-sex schools is _.A. teaching can be tailored to suit the characteristics of boysB. boys can focus on their lessons without being distractedC. boys can choose to learn whatever they are interested inD. teaching can be designed to promote boys team spirit32.What does the underlined word “acute” in paragraph 8” mean?A. lovely B. sharp C. serious D. dullDMary Moe may look like an average grandmotherBut she is notShe just learned how to fly an airplane，a dream she has had since she was a little girlBut Mary Moe could not find time to make her dream e trueAt age 34，she was just too busy to think about flying a planeLessons were costlyEverything seemed to be working against MarySo her dream had to waitMary Moe has done a lot during the past 91 yearsFor much of that time，she wanted to fly，but never had the chanceuntil now MsMoe learned about Wish of a Lifetime, a non-profit organizationIts goal is to change the way our society thinks about aging and older adultsSally Webster works for the groupShe said MsMoes wish is one of hundreds they receive each yearWish of a Lifetime helps older people to enjoy a dreamIt also sends the message that it is never too late for a dreamBut MsWebster says it also wants to send another message to society that older Americans can achieve things just like younger Americans canSusie Danick also believes in this goalShe founded TAD Relocation，a business that helps senior citizens when they moveMsDanick gave 5，000 to the Wish of a Lifetime to help seniors realize a dreamMary Moe was one of themMary Moe received three flying lessonsAnd on the big day of her first flight，her family and friends all came to cheer her onMarys success made everyone around her excited and proudIt was just a great event，a great dayFlying teacher David Waksberg says she was very calm，which is always important when youre flyingIt is never too late to spread your wings and try something newYou are never too old to try to make your dreams e true33.Why was Mary Moes dream difficult to e true?
