For example, turn off the lights and TV when you dont use them, use cold water to wash clothes or dishes: take a short shower and try to take a cold one when the weather gets warm: dont do the cooking with electricity.To live a low-carbon life, we should eat less meat. Being a vegetarian can help reduce (v)one and a half ton of carbon dioxide a year, but keeping animals for food produces even more carbon dioxide than all the cars do in the world.To live a low-carbon life, we should plant more trees. Trees are very important for us. They can not only produce oxygen for us to breathe and keep the air clean. But also take in the harmful gases from the air. To protect trees we should stop people from cuing down trees and plant as many trees as we can.If we can keep them a habit in our daily life, the earth will become a safer planet for us to live on.（1）Why does low carbon life become popular?

Even insignificant choices can affect what we experience and how we feel. When hunger strikes, we can reach for a healthy, nutritious snack, or we can choose the sugar high of junk food. The more important the decision, the greater its effect. For instance, how do I act towards that person who treated me badly? Do I generally choose to be passive, or do I actively set clear intentions and create what I want in my life? Every choice we make, however big or small, affects us in some way.How do you make choices?If you are interested in living a richer, fuller life, there is a foundation upon which you can base all of your decisions which can make life better not only for you, but also for those around you. This foundation is to choose based on whats best for all. Imagine a world where every parent, spouse(配偶), friend, teacher, businessperson, and politician truly did their best to choose whats best for all involved in every decision they made. We would certainly live in a more caring, supportive world.Its the intention.But how do I know what is really best? you might ask. The answer is simple. It doesnt matter. What matters is not the choice you make, but rather the intention behind your choice. What matters is that whatever decision you make, you are clear in your intention of choosing based on whats best for all. If it later turns out that you made what appears to have been a bad choice, theres no need for guilt. Knowing that you did your best to choose with a sincere desire for whats best for all, your conscience stays clear and open. This then allows you to more easily learn from your mistakes, and to live with a clear heart and mind.Whats best for me, too！Choosing whats best does not mean you have to always sacrifice yourself for other. An overly(过度的) exhausted mother can lose her temper easily. Some time off for this mother might seem selfish, yet in the long run, it can help her to be a better mother to her children. So as we move through each day of our lives, let us remember to include ourselves as we do our best to choose whats best for all.（1）According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true? A . Every one of us makes countless choices every day.B . Every choice, however big or small, has an influence on us.C . People act differently towards the person who treated them badly.D . People tend to reach for a junk snack when hunger strikes.（2）How should we make choices? A . To be interested in a richer, fuller life.B . To make life better for ourselves.C . To base our choices on whats best for all.D . To imagine a world where everyone did their best.（3）According to the author, what is really best? A . The choice you make.B . The intention behind your choice.C . The mistake you learn from.D . The consequence of your choice.（4）To choose what is best for us, wed better .A . try to be selfish all the timeB . sacrifice ourselves for othersC . set aside some time for ourselvesD . control our temper before children（5）The best topic or the passage may be . A . How do I act towards that person who treated me badlyB . How to live in a more caring, supportive worldC . The power of choiceD . Always sacrifice yourself for other19. （8分）阅读短文，从每小题的选项中选出最佳选项。 SoFi is a special fish. It is 47 centimeters long. It is all white. It has a small round head. What kind of fish is it?

He asked if I would give him some money so he could get something to eat. Id read the signs: “Dont give money to panhandlers(乞丐)” So I shook my head and kept walking.I wasnt prepared for a reply, but with resignation, he said, “ really am homeless and I really am hungry! You can come with me and watch me eat!” But I kept on walking.The incident bothered me for the rest of the week. I had money in my pocket and it wouldnt have killed me to hand over a buck or two even if he had been lying. On a frigid, cold night, no less, I assumed(呈现) the worst of a fellow human being.Flying back to Anchorage, I couldnt help thinking of him. I tried to rationalize my failure to help by assuming government agencies, churches, and charities were there to feed him. Besides, youre not supposed to give money to panhandlers.Somewhere over Seattle, I started to write my weekly garden column for The Anchorage Daily News. Out of the blue, I came up with an idea. Beans Caf, the soup kitchen in Anchorage, feeds hundreds of hungry Alaskans every day. Why not try to get all my readers to plant one row in their gardens dedicated to Beans? Dedicate a row and take it down to Beans. Clean and simple.We didnt keep records back then, but the idea began to take off. Folks would fax me or call when they book something in. Those who only grew flowers donated them. Food for the spirit. And salve for my conscience. （1）Where did the story happen? A . On the way to the hotel in Washington, D.C. B .
