24、It was Christmas Eve, the twenty-fourth of December, the evening before Christmas Day. Old Scrooge could hear the people outside in the street beating their hands together to warm them. There was a thick fog: it was only three o’clock but it was quite dark already. It had not been light all day. Candles were burning in the windows of the offices near his. The fog came pouring in —even through the keyhole. The fog was so thick that you could hardly see the houses on the other side of the street.

The door of Scrooge’s office was open so that he could watch his clerk. The clerk worked in a very small room on the other side of the passage. Scrooge had a very small fire, but the clerk’s fire was even smaller. He could not add coal（煤） to it because Scrooge kept the coalbox in his room. “Merry Christmas, uncle, and God bless you!” cried a happy voice. It was the voice of Scrooge’s nephew（侄子）Fred.

“Bah!” said Scrooge. “Humbug!”

Scrooge’s nephew had been walking quickly in the cold air. His face was bright, his eyes shone, and you could see his breath in the cold air.

“Do you say that Christmas is a humbug, uncle?” he said. “You don’t mean that, do you?”

“Yes, I do,” said Scrooge, “Merry Christmas! Bah! What right have you to be merry? What reason have you to be merry? You’re too poor to be merry.”

“Oh!” said the nephew, laughing. “What right have you to be so solemn and sad? You are rich enough!”

Scrooge had no better answer ready, so he said “Bah” again and following it with “Humbug”

25、Steven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks. His strange habit makes sense when you consider that he’s an environmental scientist who studies how to reduce litter, including things that fall off garbage trucks as they drive down the road. What is even more interesting is that one of Stein’s jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bags.

Americans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year. So many end up in tree branches or along highways that a growing number of cities do not allow them at checkouts. The bags are prohibited（禁止）in some 90 cities in California, including Los Angeles. Eyeing these headwinds, plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.

Among the bag makers’ argument: many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags, which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport. And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at, they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today. The industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its replacement: reusable shopping bags. The stronger a reusable bag is, the longer its life and the more plastic-bag use it cancels out. However, longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make. One study found that a cotton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the planet than plastic.

Environmentalists don’t dispute these points. They hope paper bags will be banned（禁止） someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years.

【1】What has Steven Stein been hired to do?

A．Help increase grocery sales.

B．Recycle the waste material.

C．Stop things falling off trucks.

D．Argue for the use of plastic bags.

【2】What does the word “headwinds” in paragraph 2 refer to?

A．Bans on plastic bags.

B．Effects of city development.

C．Headaches caused by garbage.

D．Plastic bags hung in trees.

【3】What is a disadvantage of reusable bags according to plastic-bag makers?

A．They are quite expensive.

B．Replacing them can be difficult.

C．They are less strong than plastic bags.

D．Producing them requires more energy.

27、My class will put on a short play in English at the end of the year. Yesterday our English teacher gave us copies of the play.

"Choose a character in the play whom you'd like to be," she told us. "This afternoon learn a few lines of this part for homework. Then tomorrow you can say those lines in front of the class. I'll decide who play each part."
