27、There was once a lonely girl who longed so much for love. One day while she was walking in the woods she found two starving songbirds. She took them home and put them in a small cage, caring them with love. Luckily, the birds grew strong little by little. Every morning they greeted her with a wonderful song. The girl felt great love for the birds.
One day the girl left the door to the cage open accidentally. The larger and stronger of the two birds flew from the cage. The girl was so frightened that he would fly away. So as he flew close, she grasped him wildly. Her heart felt glad at her success in capturing him. Suddenly, she felt the bird go weak, so she opened her hand and stared in horror at the dead bird. It was her desperate love that had killed him.
She noticed the other bird moving back and forth on the edge of the cage. She could feel his strong desire—needing to fly into the clear, blue sky. Unwillingly, she lifted him from the cage and threw him softly into the air. The lucky bird circled once, twice, three times.
The girl watched delightedly at the bird. Her heart was no longer concerned with her loss. What she wanted to see was that the bird could fly happily. Suddenly the bird flew closer and landed softly on her shoulder. It sang the sweetest tune that she had ever heard.
Remember, the fastest way to lose love is to hold on it too tight; the best way to keep love is to give it wings!
【1】After the girl found the two birds, she ____.
A.became frightened at once
B.began to treat them badly
C.greeted them happily
D.fed them and raised them
【2】Why did the girl grasp the stronger bird wildly?
A.Because the girl disliked the bird any longer
B.Because the bird wanted to fly alone.
C.Because the girl loved the bird deeply.
D.Because the bird intended to find some food.
【3】What can we learn from the passage?
A.Catch what you can catch on your way to success.
B.Going too far is as bad as not going far enough.
C.East or west, home is best.
D.A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
28、Every time you go to the supermarket you come away with your purchases packed in plastic bags. But wouldn’t it be kinder to the environment if you asked for paper bags instead?
The answer is not as easy as it might seem. Environmentalists say there are drawbacks to using both plastic bags and paper bags.
80 percent of groceries in the US are packed in plastic bags and the numbers are becoming huge. Consumers use between 500 billion and 1 trillion plastic bags per year worldwide.
Some experts believe that all these bags harm the environment. Plastic takes hundreds of years to break down and, as it does so, poisonous materials are released into the water and soil.
Further damage is caused if plastic bags enter the sea. For example, endangered sea turtles cannot tell the bags from jellyfish, their main source of food, and often choke on them.
However, this kind of bag does have its advantages.
Paper bags use more energy and create more waste than plastic bags. Plastic bags require 40 percent less energy to produce and cause 70 percent less air pollution. They also release as much as 94 percent less waste into the water than paper ones do.
But paper bags do break down more quickly than plastic bags. They don’t endanger wildlife, either.
So what should we do? One possible solution would be to use biodegradable plastic bags. “Biodegradable” means that the bags break down naturally just like a piece of banana peel when it is left outside.
But until biodegradable technology improves, it might be easier to pack things you buy in reusable cloth bags.
【1】Compared to paper bags, plastic bags ______.
A. produce 6 percent more waste
B. can be made biodegradable more easily
C. can be used as a source of food
D. save 40 percent of the energy
【2】By saying “The answer is not as easy as it might seem,” (in paragraph 2) the writer means _____.
A. biodegradable plastic bags can compete with paper
B. paper bags seem to be kind to environment
C. it’s difficult to say whether plastic or paper bags are better for the environment
【3】What does the author suggest people use at the present time?
A. Paper bags B. Plastic bags
C. Biodegradable plastic bags. D. Cloth bags.
29、I was five years old when my little brother, Mark, was born. On the photos, I appeared so thrilled that he had finally arrived. I held and bathed him, smiling from cheek to cheek. I do not remember that feeling now.
Being the first child in the family, I was the one my parents tested their new parenting techniques on. I was their guinea pig. Mark was always the happy one, the joker, the one who won because of my battles with my parents. After too many fights, I declared war on Mark. We were now enemies. All I remember is being jealous of and angry with my innocent little brother.
Thus, I made his life a suffering. I fooled, embarrassed, and fought with him, often leaving him in floods of tears.
Our little sister was born when I was 11 and instantly she and Mark could not be separated. They pushed me aside. Did I grow into an uglier green-eyed monster because they loved each other so much?
Thankfully, Mark quickly grew tall and strong, and our conflict looked more like a cold war than bloodshed. It all ended suddenly when I went to study abroad. The hatred (仇恨) disappeared and love climbed in.
Despite all the abuse Mark suffered he has implied that he has forgiven me, or even that there is nothing to forgive, although I have never brought up the subject in too much detail. I would like to; however, it would be a selfish move to look for more forgiveness. But I prefer to remember the hurt. During all those wasted years, I should have been the loving sister defending instead of attacking.
【1】Which of the following can replace the underlined word “thrilled” in the first paragraph?
A.Worried.
B.Excited.
C.Terrified.
D.Disappointed.
【2】Why did the writer consider her brother as her enemy?
A.She didn’t like her brother.
B.She’d like to be a monster.
C.She did so out of jealousy.
D.She used to be badly treated.
【3】What can we infer about the writer from the passage?
A.Her parents’ preference for boys to girls made her hate her brother.
B.Her conflict with her brother ended when she went to study abroad.
C.Her parents used her as an experimental subject for their parenting techniques.
D.Separation helped her and her brother build up a good relationship.
【4】What does the writer really want to tell us in the passage?
A.She was looking for more forgiveness.
B.She was never forgiven by her brother.
C.She felt regretful for what she had done.
D.She suffered much abuse from her brother.
