21、The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and modern communication means. Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see. it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.

Man has been polluting the Earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, man moved to another place. But this is no longer true. Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.

Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us get angry more easily.

Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air. Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. We are sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.

The Earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must take care of the rise in pollution at the same time.

【1】________, our world is becoming much smaller.

A．Because of the rise in pollution

B．Thanks to science development

C．Because the Earth is being polluted day and night

D．Because the earth is blown away by the wind every year

【2】Hundreds of years ago, life was much ________.

D．water pollution

【4】Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution because it ________.

A．makes much noise

B．makes us get angry more easily

22、   I love listening to music and will try to do it as much as I can. Whether I’m driving my car or walking somewhere I always have a CD or my iPods playing, because I feel music can greatly influence my mood(情绪). I can listen to music to cheer me up or relax me or remind me of certain time and a certain place where I last listened to that song.

I feel the best way to listen to music is live! I love going to concerts to watch and hear my favorite artist or band perform.

The last concert I went to was a Mumford Sons concert in Newcastle, a country-folk style band from the UK. All of the lights and sound effects not only sounded good but also looked good.

I always feel that people come together at concerts. I can easily talk to people I might never have talked to before, just because they share an interest in a certain music artist.

I also find that at concerts many artists or bands may speed their songs up or slow them down. Sometimes they might cover someone else’s song so I feel that the live performances really show me a new way to listen to music.

I enjoy concerts because I always discover something new and different because of the way it is played live.

23、   "I'm a big fan of the NBA." "The PM2.5 level is high today." "What's the Wi-Fi password for this restaurant?"

Do you often say or hear such sentences? Just to be clear: NBA is short for National Basketball Association. PM stands for particulate matter, and some say Wi-Fi stands for wireless fidelity.

Many of you will already know the meaning of these abbreviations(缩写词). Young people often mix them with Chinese language in their conversations. "I knew what the NBA was long before I heard its Chinese name," said Zhang Hangyu, 14, from Hunan. "The English word is easy to remember."

There has been some criticism(批评) of these words. Some people think they harm the purity (纯洁) of the Chinese language. "Some people worship(崇拜) the West crazily and use foreign words to show off," language expert Xia Jixuan told People's Daily.

Should we close the door to foreign words? "We can bring in foreign words and localize(将……本土化) them. That gives the Chinese language new life," said Yao Xishuang, a language official from the Ministry of Education.

Now, experts are working on official translations of popular foreign words. For example, PM2.5. is“细颗粒物”in Chinese.

【1】Abbreviations like "NBA" come from ________.

A.their Chinese translations B.their English names

C.online conversations D.the mired use of English and Chinese

【2】What do we know from Zhang Hangyu?

A.Young people use foreign words to show off.

B.Chinese people worship the West.

C.English abbreviations are easy to remember.

A.people's worries about the mixed use of languages

B.the effects of using English abbreviations

C.what we can do to stop the mixed use of languages

D.why Chinese people like using English while speaking

【4】What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?

A.We should spread Chinese throughout the world.

B.Learning English is necessary for most people.

C.We don't need to use any foreign words.

D.China is trying to localize foreign words.

Now it was the swan’s turn. He flew up, and began flying over the sea. The crow flew after him, making all kinds of comments(评价) about his flying. They flew on and on till they couldn’t see the land and there was nothing but water on all sides. The crow was making fewer and fewer comments. He was now so exhausted that he found it hard to stay in the air, and had to struggle to keep himself from falling into the water.

The swan pretended(假装) not to notice, and said, “Why do you keep touching the water, brother? Is that another trick?”

“No,” said the crow. He knew he had lost the competition. “I’m in trouble because of my pride! If you don’t help me, I’ll lose my life…”
