What we must know is that human beings cannot live without the Earth, but the planet can live without humans.”Evo MoralesI am not one to tell people what to do; I basically believe that as Americans we have a right to our own opinions, social issues, etc. Now, with that being said, I must stress one issue that seems to be a growing trend：pick up your trash.I love the fact that parents involve their children in outdoor activities. In fact, I encourage outdoor activities for children. I think that being outdoors away from technological devices fuels the imagination. That is to say, it provides materials for childrens writing and creation. I really do love seeing a family sitting along a river bridge and enjoying some summertime fishing as well as exploring.But what I do not like is going back to the same area the next day and finding the place littered with trash. Pick up your trash.If you are teaching your children about outdoor activities, such as fishing, teach them to respect nature as well. When packing your supplies for the days outing, throw a small kitchen bag in with the rest of the items. Use the kitchen bag to throw your papers, cans, wrappers, containers and everything else that is not at the site upon arrival. Remember to take the kitchen bag with you. Dont misuse your responsibility and model.I am the first one to admit that I am not perfect when it es to the “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle”program. From my desk right now, I can see a pile of old magazines that need to be taken to the recycling center.

Looking like a setting from the film Charlie & the Chocolate Factory, Singapores Chocolate Research Facility (CRF) has over 100 varieties of chocolates. Its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents corner store with one hand almost always in the jar of sweets.If the CRF seems to be a smart idea, thats because Lee is not merely a seasoned salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as Levis and Sony. That idea surely results in the imagination at work when it es to making different flavored (味道) chocolates.The CRFs produce is “green”， made within the country and divided into 10 lines, with the Alcohol Series being the most popular. The Exotic Serieswith Sichuan pepper, red bean (豆), cheese and other flavorsalso does well and is fun to taste.

It serves as a suitable gift.B. It works as an effective medicine.C. It helps improve the state of mind.D. It strengthens business relations.5Why is Chris Lee able to develop his idea of the CRF?A.

They are at the center of much of the worlds attention. Paparazzi(狗仔隊(duì)) camp outside their homes, cameras ready. Tabloids (小報(bào)) publish thrilling stories about their personal lives. Just imagine not being able to do anything without being photographed or interrupted for a signature! According to psychologist Christina Villarreal, celebritiesfamous peopleworry constantly about their public appearance. Eventually，they start to lose track of who they really are, seeing themselves the way their fans imagine them, not as the people they were before everyone knew their names. “Over time，” Villarreal says, “they feel separated and alone.”The phenomenon of tracking celebrities has been around for ages. In the 4th centuryB. C， painters followed Alexander the Great into battle, hoping to picture his victories for his admirers. When Charles Dickens visited America in the 19th century, his soldout readings attracted thousands of fans, leading him to plain (抱怨) about his lack of privacy. Tabloids of the 1920s and 1930s ran articles about filmstars in much the same way that modern tabloids and websites do.Being a public figure today, however，is a lot more difficult than it used to be. Superstars cannot move about without worrying about photographers with modern cameras. When they say something silly or do something ridiculous, there is always the Internet to spread the news in minutes and keep their “story” alive forever.If fame is so troublesome, why arent all celebrities running away from it? The answer is there are still ways to deal with it. Some stars stay calm by surrounding themselves with trusted friends and family or by escaping to remote places away from big cities. They focus not on how famous they are but on what they love to do or whatever made them famous in the first place.Sometimes a few celebrities can get a little justice. Still, even stars who enjoy full justice often plain about how hard their lives are. They are tired of being famous already.5. It can be learned from the passage that stars today _.A. are often misunderstood by the publicB. can no longer have their privacy protectedC. spend too much on their public appearanceD. care little about how they have e into fame6. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?A. Great heroes of the past were generally admired.B. The problem faced by celebrities has a long history.C. Wellknown actors are usually targets of tabloids.D. Works of popular writers often have a lot of readers.7. What makes it much harder to be a celebrity today?A. Availability of modern media.B. Inadequate social recognition.C. Lack of favorable chances.D. Huge population of fans.8. What is the authors attitude toward modern celebrity?A. Sincere. B. Sceptical.C. Disapproving. D. Sympathetic.文章大意本文為議論文。作者主要對現(xiàn)在的名人沒有隱私的問題發(fā)表了自己的看法。長難句Although being famous might sound like a dream e true, todays stars，feeling like zoo animals，face pressures that few of us can imagine.盡管成名或許聽起來就像夢想實(shí)現(xiàn)了一樣，可如今的明星感覺就像動物園的動物，承受著少有人能夠想象的壓力。本句是復(fù)合句，although引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句；feeling like zoo animals是現(xiàn)在分詞短語作狀語，主句為todays stars face pressures that few of us can imagine。5B。推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第一段第二、三、四句“They are at the center of much of the worlds attention. Paparazzi camp outside their homes, cameras ready.
