Hello, everyone. Have you ever wondered what the weather is like in other places around the world? Today, I’d like to talk to you about the changing seasons in my city which was the assigned topic for this class.
First of all, the winter season usually begins in December and ends in early March. The coldest month is January, and temperatures can drop below freezing for most of this month. The city usually averages about 30 inches of snow during this entire 3-month period. Occasionally, we have snow storms that can drop a foot of snow in a very short period of time. Winter activities during this season include sledding, skiing, and snowshoeing.
Spring usually arrives in late March, and the temperatures hover(stay) around 50 degrees during the day. It is a beautiful season because the flowers start to bloom. It is sometimes windy, and this is great for flying kites. People in my city often like to go on picnics, stroll through parks, and play outdoor games.
Next, summer starts in June, as temperatures slowly rise to around 80 degrees. The summer in my city is very dry with little rain throughout the season, and temperatures can soar(increase quickly) above 100 degrees in August. Fortunately, the weather is very dry with low humidity（湿度）, so it is really pleasant even on hot days. Popular activities during this season are hiking, fishing, camping, water skiing, and outdoor sports including football and soccer.
And finally, summer changes to fall in late September when the weather cools off, and the trees begin to change colors. A lot of people enjoy driving into the mountains and viewing the fall colors. It is also a time when people clean up their yards and gardens in preparation for the winter season.
So, as you can see, my city has a lot to offer no matter when you visit this area.

Microsoft founder Bill Gates said that he planned to give away almost all of his vast fortune, largely to the cause of global health, during the course of his lifetime. With an estimated(估计)worth of more than ＄ 40 billion, according to Forbes, the project will be no small feat(功绩) for Gates. Having already provided the Bill ＆ Melinda Gates Foundation with ＄ 24 billion to address global health issues, Gates said that eventually his entire fortune will be put towards the cause except“a few percent left for the kids .”
So what has made the richest man in the world to channel his resources so heavily into one interest? Gates believes that “the equality of opportunity”in which Americans take such pride needs to extend to other nations around the world. Improving the health of the populations, he says , has proven to be an essential method in helping poor countries to be financially successful.“National borders allow inequalities,” said Gates：“We all need to take a more global view, rather than just saying my country is doing well. We have to step up these health issues, knowing how few resources are going into them.”
Gates said that both his parents set an example for him as a child. His father, William H. Gates, was the head of the local planned Parenthood, and his mother, Mary, volunteered for the United Way. As he gathered his fortune, Gates knew he would eventually want to give back as well, but he didn’t expect to devote himself whole-heartedly to one project until he was about 60.
However, Gates, 47, began to question his ability to wait that long.“It seemed there was a real time urgency,”Gates said.“I started to think, how many lives could I save before then?”
59. Bill Gates will give away his vast fortune to .
A. improve the health of population in America alone
B. improve the health of population all over the world
C. avoid leaving his children too much money
D.spare the American government the burden of health care
60. Bill Gates believes that one important way of developing poor countries is .
A. to set up more foundations for them
B. to aid them with natural resources
C. to put more effort into the health issues in them
D.to help them take a more global view
61. It can be learned from the text that Bill Gates thinks .
A. Americans should care about people in other countries
B. Americans should treat fellow citizens well
C. Americans should devote themselves to certain projects
D.Americans can be world-famous by giving away vast fortune
62. Bill Gates gave away his vast fortune earlier than he had expected because of .
A. his weakening health condition B. his parents’ suggestions
C.his great success in business D. his concerns for suffering people
C

In the age of reality television, success isn’t the only way to the public eye. Failure can also create fame, just like William Hung, 21, a native of Hong Kong.
Hung recently has made an agreement with US -based entertainment firms Koch Records and Fuse Music Network. They will publish a full-length record, titled “The True Idol” on April 6.
The idol (偶像) is a civil engineering student at the University of California at Berkeley. He did a version (改写本) of Ricky Martin’s “She Bangs” on the television show “American Idol 3", on January27. The Fox TV singing contest searches for pop stars among ordinary people. In the case of Hung, however, his act was so bad that the judges cut him off in mid-act .
Hung’s response? “I already gave my best, so I have no regrets at all.” That’s good, because any common person would have found plenty to regret: The off-key singing. The blue Hawaiian shirt worn with pants pulled up too high. The terrible dancing. The hips jerking (摇摆) to a beat that did not belong to the song, maybe not even to this planet. It was, by all accounts, bad.
But, it was this very bad act that sold well.
Marc Juris, president of Fuse, explained it this way: “Everyone of us is happily guilty of singing our favorite song at the top of our lungs with complete freedom, completely off-key and completely unworried. That’s what William did and immediately won the hearts of America.”
Whatever it is, for the moment it’s big. Three websites devoted to Hung have gone up on the Internet in the past few weeks. Versions of his performance have been remixed with hip hop and techno music and have made it to the top 10 request list at a Chicago radio station.
So, what does Hung think of this?
“There were all these people saying things about me. A lot were saying I was very courageous and that I was great on the show, but some didn’t have much respect for me and some were kind of mean.”
Now he says he’s not so sure whether to distance himself from the glamour (魅力) or to accept it. Returning to normal hasn’t been easy.
67. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Sometimes an idol behaves quite foolishly.
B. Hung's performance attracted the public eye.
C. How an unsuccessful person became famous.
D. Success sometimes does not require hard work.
68. Hung was popular in America for all the following reasons EXCEPT ________.
A. his shirt and pants B. his off-key singing
C. his hips jerking D. his excellent version
69. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 6 refer to?
A. William Hung. B. Hung's bad act.
C. Hung’s website. D. The public’s opinion.
70. Which of the following shows the correct order of what happened to Hung?
a. The entertainment firms made an agreement with Hung.
b.The judges cut Hung off in mid-act in the singing contest.
c. Hung became popular among Americans.
d. Hung gave a terrible performance though he tried his best.
e. Three websites put Hung’s funny performance on the Internet.
A. d, b, e, c, a B. a, c, d. b, e
C. a, d, b, c, e D. d, b, a, e, c
71. Why was Hung able to win the hearts of America?
A. His success was based on his own hard work.
B. He attracted people’s attention in the contest.
C. He was good-looking though he didn’t sing well.
D. His character was completely different from other idols’.
E
Disposing（处理）of waste has been a problem since humans started producing it. As more and more people choose to live close together in cities, the waste-disposal problem becomes increasingly difficult.
During the eighteenth century, it was usual for several neighboring towns to get together to select a faraway spot as a dump site. Residents or trash haulers（垃圾拖运者）would transport household rubbish, rotted wood, and old possessions to the site. Periodically（定期的）some of the trash was burned and the rest was buried. The unpleasant sights and smells caused no problem because nobody lived close by.
Factories, mills, and other industrial sites also had waste to be disposed of. Those located on rivers often just dumped the unwanted remains into the water. Others built huge burners with chimneys to deal with the problem.
Several facts make these choices unacceptable to modern society. The first problem is space. Dumps, which are now called landfills, are most needed in heavily populated areas. Such areas rarely have empty land suitable for this purpose. Property is either too expensive or too close to residential（住宅区的）neighborhoods. Long-distance trash hauling has been a common practice, but once farm areas are refusing to accept rubbish from elsewhere, cheap land within trucking distance of major city areas is almost nonexistent.
Awareness（意识）of pollution dangers has resulted in more strict rules of waste disposal. Pollution of rivers, ground water, land and air is a price people can no longer pay to get rid of waste. The amount of waste, however, continues to grow.
Recycling efforts have become commonplace, and many towns require their people to take part. Even the most efficient recycling programs, however, can hope to deal with only about 50 percent of a city’s reusable waste.
72. The most suitable title for this passage would be __________.
A. Places for Disposing Waste B. Waste Pollution Dangers
C. Ways of Getting Rid of Waste D. Waste Disposal Problem
73. During the 18th century, people disposed their waste in many ways EXCEPT for _______.
A. burying it B. recycling it
C. burning it D. throwing it into rivers
74. What can be inferred from the fourth paragraph?
A. Farm areas accept waste from the city in modern society.
B. There is cheap land to bury waste in modern society.
C. It is difficult to find space to bury waste in modern society.
D. Ways to deal with waste in modern society stay the same.
75. The main purpose of writing this article is to _________.
A. draw people’s attention to waste management
B. warn people of the pollution dangers we are facing
C. call on people to take part in recycling programs
D. tell people a better way to get rid of the waste

Last term I took part in a geography research study group. Our topic was environmental pollution and protection. We took a variety of pictures showing the present pollution conditions of our city. To our surprise, there are still a lot of people doing silly things to our surroundings. Some people throw rubbish anywhere they like, some cars give off harmful gases, and waste water is poured into the rivers by some factories. Worse still, people sometimes have to make their way through dusty winds as a result of the pollution. Through our research, we come to know that everybody must pay much attention to our environment and some measures should be taken to protect it. (97 words)
