On this particular day in May, the grandfather was pleased to have the pany of his best little pal when planting the vegetable garden. For a while, the boy seemed to like it too. His small fingers were just the right size to pick up tiny seeds and drop them into Granddad-made holes. They were a great team. But before long the boy became restless and directed his anger at the seeds themselves. “Whats this one, Granddad?” “Beets (甜菜).” “Ugh, I hate beets.” “Well, then, lets do the pumpkin instead.” “Yuck. I really hate pumpkin.” “Okay, buddy. What would you like to plant?” “How about doughnuts (油炸圈饼)?” Just in time, the grandfather stopped himself from saying there was no such thing as a doughnut seed. Looking at the unhappy little face, he suddenly got an inspiration. “Wait a second. I have to go inside and get the right seeds.” Granddad returned with a handful of seeds. He and the small boy solemnly planted them in a special corner of the vegetable garden. Weeks later, when the real seeds began to break through the soil, the boy became delighted with the tiny seedlings. He spent many afternoons helping Granddad water and watch them grow. And when the first baby vegetables were harvested, he liked them after all. For weeks, he forgot all about the doughnuts. But then one day at lunch, he said, “Granddad, what happened to our doughnuts? How e they didnt grow?” Granddad paused a moment. “Well, you know, doughnuts are tricky.

David Sandalow, who is in China as part of the Obama administrations climate team, said it was his fifth trip to China in six months and he was convinced that clean energy has bee a top priority for Chinese leaders in their dealings with the United States. “This issue is now central to the bilateral（双边的） relationship in a way thats bee exciting,” said Mr. Sandalow, “A year or two ago I couldnt have imagined that.” He provided some more details on the planned joint(联合) clean-energy research center, saying its $150 million budget would be equally divided between the two countries, with a headquarters established in both as well. “The aim is to find ways to bring together the best researchers in each country to help solve some of the most important challenges facing the world,” he said, giving out three prime targets: l Clean vehicles(交通工具), both electric and powered by various fuels.l Energy efficiency in buildings (this is particularly important considering the pace with which China and other developing countries are constructing new cities).l Technology for controlling emissions(排放) from coal-burning power plants, including those already built. “The world has a huge number of existing coal plants,” Mr. Sandalow said. “Unless we find ways to control the carbon emissions from those plants at affordable rates were going to keep warming the planet.”Mr. Sandalow said he was also convinced that China has made climate change itself, and not just the pressing real-time issue of energy security, a real priority now. “Its front and center（重要的）to the Chinese leadership,” he said.5.

President Obama and Mr. Hu discussed a series of partnerships on energy.C. Mr. Sandalow has been to China altogether five times.D. China and the U.S. both want to make joint efforts to cooperate with each other on energy.8. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Climate Change TalksB.

Chinas Efforts in Protecting the EnvironmentCNearly 62 percent of Japans second-year junior middle school students say they are weak in English, with 66 percent of them developing this understanding during their first year of middle school, according to the results of a recent survey, The Daily Yomiuri has reported.The survey of 2,967 second-year students at 33 public schools was conducted in January and February by the Benesse Corporation, an educational service provider in Japan. It suggests that students are most motivated to learn English at the very beginning of their study, with 43.6 percent of them indicating this. However, within a year, the enthusiasm wanes and most students begin to identify themselves as weak in the subject. Out of the 61.8 percent of the students who say they are “rather weak” or “very weak” in the language, 26.6 percent choose “the latter half of the first year” as the period they began feeling that way, followed by “the beginning of the first year”, with 16.2 percent. Nearly 12 percent say they lost confidence “before entering middle school.”When asked about what they struggled with, 78.6 percent selected “grammar”, while 72.7 percent replied that they “got lower test scores than expected.”The students were also asked to predict the role English would play in their future. More than 70 percent of them said they felt English would be much more necessary in Japanese society in their adult lives. Only 20.4 percent said they would like to study abroad, while 14.6 percent said they hoped to have a career that would require English skills.The respondents were second-graders in xx, the starting year of the current teaching guidelines that allow primary schools to introduce English as an elective course for their students. About 91.4 percent of the second-year middle school students had some English training in primary school, mainly through simple conversation, songs and stories. The main problem, teachers say, is that the benefits gained during primary school disappear rapidly once students move on to middle school, where they are bewildered by the sudden shift from everyday English to textbook English.9. What does the underlined word “wanes” in paragraph 2 mean?A. develops B. bees weaker C. gets stronger D. adds 10. Which of the following is true about the survey?A. It was conducted in January and February in xx.B. 26.6 percent of the students in the survey think they are rather weak or very weak in English.C. Most students in the survey became doubtful about their English levels in primary school.D. The majority of the students in the survey agreed English would be important in future life.11. What is the leading cause of the students frustration in their English studies according to teachers in Japan?A. Grammar being such a headache for the students.B. The sudden change in the focus of teaching between primary school and middle school.C. Lower test scores in English than expected.D. Not many students planning to study abroad in the future.12. What can we learn from the article?A. The English levels of primary school students in Japan are far from satisfactory.B. Japanese junior middle school students are quite good at textbook English.C. Before xx, English was not officially included in primary school courses in Japan.D. Junior students in Japan are improving their English levels because of good-quality textbooks.五、任务型阅读。（满分10分）请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词. There are now laws all over the worldfrom China to IrelandLimiting or taxing plastic shopping bags. In the United States, San Francisco, California, became the first American city to ban non-biodegradable (不能生物降解的) plastic bags.Sunset Scavenger dump is home to the waste of some 820,000 San Francisco residents(居民). The waste is mostly made up of plastic bags. “Plastic bags are cheap to produce, and light to take. Also, they bring great convenience to customers. That is why they are widely used,” said Robert Reed, spokesman for Sunset Scavenger Waste. “However, they are hard to recycle and they often end up in places they should not be. They blow into marshes, and onto farms. They wind up in the bay, and in the current, and they wind up out in the ocean. They are a threat to marine(海洋的) life,” Reed said.These disadvantages, and the fact that the city uses nearly 180 million plastic bags a year, are what caused San Francisco Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi to write a bill banning plastic bags. But he hopes the law will inspire people to do more than that. Mirkarimi said, “Bringing your own recycling bags is our goal.”“Bringing your own” is a concept shopper Sabina Talia-Ferro was already familiar with. “In Holland, they never give you a bag, and you have to bring your own bags, so I was used to that already,” she said. Other shoppers have happily cooperated with the ban. Grocers too. Store owner Sam Mogannam says he now pays 10 times more to provide paper bags to customers than he did with plastic. “The only impact was the increase in cost, and it wasnt a cost we were opposed to taking,” he said.Title: San Francisco bans plastic bagsParagraph OutlineSupporting Details (1)_ _ of the topicl Many countries are now limiting the use of plastic bags.l San Francisco was the first city to ban plastic bags in the USA.Reasons for the 2)_ of plastic bagsl Plastic bags are cheap to produce and light to (3)_ _. l It is (4 ) _ for customers to use plastic bags.
