So-called green schools are built from recycled and environmentally friendly materials. They are designed to use less energy than traditional school buildings. In the next few years, Southern California alone plans to open 150 green schools. Studies have shown that there are good reasons to go green, including good air quality that cuts down on asthma(哮喘)attacks and airborne germs that can cause illnesses. Students learn better in classrooms that have natural light and ideal temperatures. Green schools have lower energy bills. Go On, Get Green Heres how to save energy and help the environment. Light Savers Turn off the lights in a room when it is not in use. This bright idea can produce big savings on energy costs. Some schools use sensors that automatically shut off the lights when there is no motion in a room. Heat Smart Your schools thermostat(温度调整器)should be set to 78in warm weather and 68in cooler weather. The temperature can be even farther from the comfort zone at night and on weekends, when no one is using the school building. Reuse, Recycle Reuse paper, cans, bottles and batteries.

Hoy stood up to throw the first ball of the World Series. Most people at Crowley Field on that day probably did not remember Hoy because he had retired(退休) from professional baseball 58 years earlier in 1903. However he had been an outstanding player and the deaf people still talk about him and his years in baseball. William E. Hoy was born in Houckstown Ohio on May 23, 1862. He became deaf when he was two years old. He attended the Columbus Ohio School for the deaf. After graduation he started playing baseball while working as a shoemaker. Hoy began playing professional baseball in 1886 for Oshkosh(Wisconsin) of the Northwestern League. In 1888 he started as an outfielder(外场手) with the old Washington Senators. His small figure and speed made him an outstanding base runner. He was very good at stealing bases during his career. In the 1888 major league season he stole 82 bases. He was also the Senators leading hitter in 1888. Hoy was clever and he threw right-handed and batted left-handed. On June 19,1889 he threw out three batters(击球手) at the plate from his outfield position. The arm signals used by judges today to show balls and strikes began because of Hoy. The judge lifted his right arm to show that the pitch was a strike and his left arm to signal that it was a ball.For many years people talked about Hoys last ball game in 1903. He was playing for Los Angeles of the Pacific Coast Winter League. It was a memorable game because Hoy hit a wonderful ball which won the game. It was a very foggy day and therefore very hard to see the ball. In the ninth inning(棒球的一局) with two men out, Hoy managed to catch a fly ball to make the third out in spite of the fog. Los Angeles defeated their opposition and won the game. After he retired Hoy stayed busy. He ran a dairy farm near Cincinnati for 20 years. He also became a public speaker and traveled giving speeches. Until a few years before his death he took 4-10 mile walks several mornings a week. On December 15, 1961 William Hoy died at the age of 99. 10In which order did the following things happen in Hoys life?a. Hoy worked as a shoemaker. b. Hoy began to run a diary farm. c.

Hoy was the greatest baseball player in his time. B. Speaking and listening are not necessary in baseball games. C. The judge had to study the hand signals very seriously. D. Hoys family encouraged him to become a baseball player. Early people had very little effect on the environment. They lived in caves in very small “clan” groups. They collected or killed only enough for the clans survival. Early clans were nomadic, which mean that they didnt stay in one place. Instead, they moved around, following the animals that were their main food source and seeking areas where seasonal plants grew wild. Moving around seasonally helped to protect the environment. The land had time to recover and animals had time to breed (繁殖)before the clan returned for the next season.As time went by, these small family clans joined with others to form larger groups for protection. Joining with other clans gave them more hunters and more women to help cut up the meat and share it between families. Eventually, people tamed(驯养)wild animals such as dogs and horses. People settled around rivers and fertile plains to share responsibilities and duties. Then, people began to plant crops instead of moving to areas where the plants grew. This development changed the environment.Traditional forms of work also changed. Some people were better at performing a particular task than other clan members, so then began to specialize in things they were good at doing. This also meant that they began to exchange their goods for things that others produced.People began to communicate with distant tribes. Land was cleared for roads. Foreign plants and animals were transported to places where they had not existed before. Specialization also give people more free time. So art ,dance and music became important ways of expressing feelings and thoughts. This was how many great civilizations started.Compared to the past, modern civilization has experienced many changes to become the highly developed society that exists today. Populations have increased rapidly. Forests have been cleared for farms. Inventions and technology have made work easier.However, pollution and other serious problems have also resulted from human progress. As concerned citizens, it is up to us to learn from past mistakes and to help maintain and improve our environment.14Early tribes didnt have much effect on animal population because_A .they kept animals for themselves B they ate only vegetablesC they loved animals D they killed only enough for food15The main purpose for small clans to join together was_A to hurt animals B to seek safety C to share caves D to protect environment16According to the passage ,we can learn that_A early people moved to new places looking for new sources of foodB modern civilization began when people started to live together in big groupsC modern advancements are always good for the environmentD people began to exchange goods because they didnt have enough money 17It can be concluded from the passage that_A human progress has brought civilization to the societyB civilization has improved traditional forms of workC early people understood environmental protectionD our environment has been affected by human progressIts you and I who are to blame for the state of the earth. No question about it. Its our life-style that is threatening life on Earth, so we must make the changes. The good news is that many of those changes are really quite simple, even enjoyable, but for every careful step we take as individuals, we must press government and industry to take a big step on our benefit. And we must start now. Tomorrows too late.My aim this year is to persuade as many of my friends and colleagues as possible to choose the train, and leave their cars behind too. My gardens have been pesticide(杀虫剂)free zones for years and I enjoy seeing more wildlife on my doorstep as a result; Ive tried to reduce my contribution to water pollution too, by using environment-friendly, phosphate(磷)free washing powder , and by no longer thinking of the toilet as a suitable waste-disposal(处理) point .I ran after a young lady through town recently to give her back the piece of paper she had carelessly thrown away. She disappeared into a shop, and when I followed her inside and made my presentation, she was doubly embarrassed-she worked there, and the boss gave her a tickingoff too. Ive started asking fellow drivers at gas stations why they arent using unleaded (无铅的) petrol . These are small things, but we have to start somewhere, and every little does help.18We can learn from the first paragraph that_.Ayou and I are responsible for looking after the environment Bthe government and industry are responsible for looking after the environment Cthe government is responsible for looking after the environment Dboth A and B19To help the environment, the author is trying to do everything mentioned below EXCEPT_.Ataking the train instead of a car Bavoiding the use of pesticidesCthrowing away the old carsDrunning after those who throw articles carelessly20The author ran after a woman through town because he wanted_.Ato find out where she worked Bto give her back the piece of paper she had lost Cto ask her to pay him for picking up the piece of paper.Dto tell her not to throw away pieces of paper carelessly 21The purpose of this passage is to_.Apersuade his friends to take the train Btry to advise us all to protect our environment Cmake clear who is responsible for the environment Dinform us of the good newsHaving a husband means an extra seven hours of housework each week for women, according to a new study. For men, getting married saves an hour of housework a week. “Its a well-known pattern,” said lead researcher Frank Stafford at University of Michigans Institute for Social Research. “Men usually work more outside the home, while women take on more of the housework.”He points out that differences among households (家庭) exist. But in general, marriage means more housework for women and less for men. “And the situation gets worse for women when they have children.” Stafford said.Overall, times are changing in the American home. In 1976, women busied themselves with 26 weekly hours of sweeping-and-dusting work, compared with 17 hours in 2005. Men are taking on more housework, more than doubling their housework hours from six in 1976 to 13 in 2005.Single women in their 20s and 30s did the least housework, about 12 weekly hours, while married women in their 60s and 70s did the most about 21 hours a week.Men showed a somewhat different pattern, with older men picking up the broom more often than younger men. Single men worked the hardest around the house, more than that of all other age groups of married men.Having children increases housework even further. With more than three, for example, wives took on more of the extra work, clocking about 28 hours a week compared with husbands10 hours.22According to the “well-known pattern” in Paragraph 1, a married man _.A. takes on heavier work B. does more houseworkC. is the main breadwinner D. is the master of the house23How many hours of housework did men do every week in the 1970s?A. About 28 B. About 26C. About 13 D. About 624What kind of man is doing most housework according to the text?A. An unmarried man. B. An older married man.C. A younger married man. D. A married man with children.25What can we conclude from Staffords research? A. Marriage gives men more freedom. B. Marriage has effects on job choices. C. Housework sharing changes over time. D. Having children means doubled housework.参考答案1D2C3D4A5B【解析】略6A7D8D9A【解析】略10B11D12A13A【解析】本文介绍了美国20世纪初最杰出的棒球选手Hoy不平凡的一生。10细节题。此题要求对大事发生的先后挨次进行排序。可用首尾定位法，即找到第一个发生的大事 (e.
