21、Climbing Mount Everest, the world’s highest mountain, just became more challenging. The government of Nepal is telling climbers they cannot leave rubbish on the trails (山径). Each climber will have to come down the mountain with at least 18 pounds of garbage. That’s the average amount of rubbish a climber leaves behind on Everest.
Officials say climbers are responsible for their own rubbish. “We are not asking climbers to pick up rubbish left by someone else,” said Maddhu Sudan Burlakoti, who works for the Nepal Tourism Ministry. “We just want them to bring back what they took up.”
More than 4,000 people have reached the 29,035-foot mountain top in the past 60 years. Leaving rubbish along the way helps climbers keep their bags light so they have energy to reach the top. “The rubbish problem in Mount Everest is not new,” Burlakoti says. “When the people started to climb the mountain, they started to leave their garbage there.” They have left behind cans, tents, food wrappers, and equipment. Last year, climbers carried down a total of four tons of rubbish.
The new rule came into effect in April of 2014. To make sure it is followed, climbers will have to deposit money before the climb. Once they climb back down the mountain, officials will check climbers at a return camp to make sure they have the required 18 pounds of rubbish. If they do, their money will be returned to them. If they do not, climbers will not receive their deposit and they will not be given a permit the next time they want to climb Everest.
The goal is to make sure no more litter will be left on Everest, which has earned the nickname (绰号) the World’s Highest Dustbin. “As we offer Mount Everest to all the people of the world they should take responsibility to clean it,” Burlakoti says, “After seeing the results from this, we will extend this rule to other mountains also.”
【1】What is mainly discussed in the passage?
A. Mount Everest is suffering white pollution.
B. A new rule was made to punish climbers.
C. Climbers were asked to clean up after themselves.
D. Mountains of garbage are left behind by climbers.
【2】Why was a new rule made?
A. The rubbish problem there suddenly became serious.
B. Mount Everest was considered to be a big dustbin.
C. Climbers produced four tons of rubbish last year.
D. The number of climbers there was beyond control.
【3】We can learn from Paragraph 4 that _____.
A. the new rule was once discussed in April of 2014
B. those who deposit money first will not be punished
C. all climbers are advised to take rubbish down
D. measures are taken to make sure the rule is followed
【4】What can be inferred from what Burlakoti says?
A. The rule is being successfully carried out.
B. The rule is not effective as expected.
C. The effect of the rule remains to be seen.
D. The rule will be applied to other mountains.
22、How to sleep well
“Did you sleep well last night?”. Nowadays, lots of people can’t sleep well. Most of them just couldn’t fall asleep and even suffer from insomnia (失眠症). 【1】. The following are some tips to help you get sound sleep.
·Make a schedule, and stick to it
Melatonin (褪黑素) is a hormone produced by the body to regulate when you get sleepy and when you wake up. 【2】 . Production of melatonin is stopped by light — so levels naturally fall as daylight approaches, getting you ready to greet the day.
If your bedtime and wake-up time change from day to day or on weekends, your body doesn’t know how to respond. Therefore, it’s important to have a standard wake-up time.
·Don’t lay in bed awake
“The best sleep tip you can ever give somebody is get up-don’t lay in bed awake.” Grander said. “Lying in bed awake can form an association in your brain that can lead to insomnia,”he explained. 【3】, if you don’t have a restful spot where you peacefully fall asleep.
·Change your attitude to sleep
“Don’t see your sleep as the amount of time you have left in your day,” Grander advised. “See your sleep as the amount of time you need in order to set yourself up for a productive tomorrow.” 【4】 . Most adults need seven to eight hours of sleep to be fully rested, so if a person needed to rise at 7 am each day, back timing eight hours would require a bedtime of 11 pm.
·【5】
Stress is a result of reflecting on things over and over again. So a helpful tool is to let them out and release them. The key here is to put pen to paper and start writing. You may want to write down things that are stressing you out and why they are stressing you out. Doing so allows us to separate our stress from being a part of us.
A．Speak out your thoughts
B．It is an important shift in thinking
C．Set down your thoughts
D．Actually, our brain can be “trained”
E．Your bed becomes an anxious place where you toss and turn and wake up tired
F．As night approaches, levels of it rise, telling the body that it’s time for bed
G．Your bed makes you excited and energetic when you get up
23、There are many differences between country life and city life in many ways. One person even does different things in the two places.
Julia lived in the countryside, but one year she decided to visit the capital city to do some shopping and to see the sights. She stayed at a hotel near the central market. She had seldom been to the city before, and was very excited about what she would find.
On the first morning of her visit, as she walked from the hotel to the market, she passed a beggar(乞丐). He was holding up a notice, which said, “Blind from birth. Please give generously(慷慨地).”
Julia felt sorry for the blind beggar and she bent down and put a dollar coin into his bowl. “Thank you.” he said.
The same thing happened again the following day.
On the third day, however, Julia did not have a dollar coin. She had only fifty cents, so she dropped this into the beggar’s bowl.
“What have I done wrong?” the beggar said, “Why are you so stingy today? ”
Julia was very surprised at what the beggar said. “How do you know I haven't given you a dollar?” she said, “If you’re blind you can’t know what coin I put into your bowl.”
“Ah, ” explained the beggar, “The truth is that I'm not blind. I'm just looking after this place for the regular beggar while he’s on holiday.”
“On holiday?” Julia said, “And what exactly does your blind friend do on holiday?”
“He goes into the countryside,” the man said, “and takes photographs. He’s a very good photographer.”
【1】Where was the beggar sitting?
A. Between Julia’s hotel and the market. B. In the busiest part of the city.

24、My younger daughter, Lauren, has a new car and she has managed to keep it spotlessly clean since she bought it in July.
Lauren’s old car was messy. It was essentially a large garbage dump on wheels. I must admit that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree because until I got my present car, all of my many automobiles had been messy too.
The worst thing about her car was that it took on water every time it rained. No one could ever find the source of the leak (漏洞), which created a pool on the floor of the front passenger side.
Four years ago, I got a new car. I turned over a new leaf and, for the first time since I got my driver’s license, cleaned up my act. I gave my old car, which contained old leaves, to my wife, who in turn gave her car to Lauren. It’s the one Lauren was driving – and filling with so much stuff that there was barely enough room in the back seat for her little dog, Maggie – until she got her new car.
A few weeks ago, Lauren decided to go car shopping. She went to a Volkswagen dealership because she had her eye on a Jetta. She had her other eye on my wallet.
Anyway, she saw a 2005 model, which was shown to her by an automotive associate named Anthony. He spent a lot of time with Lauren each of the three or four times she visited the dealership, let me test-drive the car when I went to see it, and didn’t put any pressure on any of us. In short, Anthony gave used car salesmen a good name.
But he was no match for Lauren when it came to negotiating the price, which he lowered to what she said she could afford and not a penny more.
So now, at 25, which is half the age I was when I cleaned up my act, Lauren has done the same. Her car has been clean for almost three months. Even the dog is impressed.
The downside is that my wife’s car is messy. And she wants a new one, too.
【1】Which of the following best explains the saying “the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree” underlined in paragraph 2?
A．An apple fell somewhere near from the tree, making Lauren’s car dirty.
B．Until 50, the author treated his cars the way Lauren treated her old car.
C．The author didn’t know why Lauren’s car was always so messy.
D．It’s common for many people not to keep their cars tidy and clean.
【2】What do we know about Lauren’s old car?
A．Problems would be created by the leak in the car on rainy days.
B．There was something wrong with the front passenger side.
C．It was given to her by the author when he was 50 years old.
D．It was always over-packed and had no room for her little dog.
【3】What does this passage imply (暗含)?
A．Lauren bought her new car with her own money.
B．Anthony was a good automotive associate who sells new cars.
C．Anthony didn’t put any pressure on Lauren when she visited the dealership.
D．In the end, Lauren picked up her new car for a good price.
【4】What is the main idea of this passage?
A．The author’s daughter resembled him in all aspects of life.
B．The author taught his daughter how to keep her car clean.
C．The author’s family’s attitudes toward their old and new cars.
D．How the author’s family hungered for new cars.
