阅读理解。     If, for some reason, you had 2,010 empty plastic bottles, what would you do? You"d probably sell
them cheaply, right? But Xia Yu collected 2,010 bottles and built a boat with them. As you read this, Xia
is, in fact, on a river somewhere in Anhui, slowly going towards his destination: the Expo Garden in
Shanghai. 2,010 plastic bottles were to celebrate the Expo 2010 Shanghai. On the opening day of the
Expo, Xia, together with five friends, went on a 1,500 km journey from Xiangtan to the Expo Garden, in
spite of the doubt whether they"ll make it.After all, the boat they are on can hardly be called a boat. It cost only 2,000 yuan to build in a month.
     What"s keeping Xia going is a major cause behind the trip. "We are examining water pollution through
our journey and trying to promote a lowcarbon lifestyle. Before we started, no one believed we could sail
the boat to the Dongting Lake. But we made it." But as they expected, the journey has not always been
smooth. Of the six from Xiangtan, four gave up. As of press time (截至发稿时), only Xia and his friend
Huang Ying were on the boat.Huang suffered from a disease when they reached Jiujiang, Jiangxi Province.Xia said,"There are so many things that can stop us from making it to Shanghai, like the weather, health,
and sometimes swift river water."
     "The boat was produced in a factory according to our design, and perhaps it"s not in a very good
condition. But," Xia  said, "we are wearing life jackets." "Some boats passing by offered help." What is
more of a reward for Xia and Huang is that the Yangtze River turned out much cleaner than they had
expected. Although Xia and Huang are uncertain about the journey ahead, they are "quite happy" with
what they have already achieved. "After all, it"s not the destination that counts. It"s always the course that
matters the most."1. Xia Yu doubts the success of the journey because of _____.A. such a long journey on the river
B. the poor boat and the bad weather
C. few people taking part in the journey
D. the seriously polluted river in some parts 2. Which of the following is NOT the purpose of the journey?A. To examine water pollution.
B. To celebrate the Expo 2010 Shanghai.
C. To win a race on the water.
D. To promote a lowcarbon lifestyle.3. From the text we know that _____.A. they stay on the boat at night
B. three people gave up due to their bad health
C. Xia Yu and his mate have arrived in Shanghai
D. Huang suffered from a disease on the journey 4. The last paragraph tells us Xia Yu and Huang Ying _____.A. pay more attention to the process
B. are sure to arrive at the destination
C. helped turn the Yangtze River cleaner
D. are happy because of their final success

任务型读写。     Walking is the best and the cheapest way to lose weight. The best time to walk to lose weight is in the
early morning in fresh air, because it has many benefits. Firstly, it doesn"t disturb your daily routine activities.Secondly, it does not only help lose weight, but it"s also useful for good health. Thirdly, you won"t get an
excuse that you didn"t get time to go for  your workout due to your tight schedule. It"s scientifically proved
that walking in the early morning to lose weight helps you to burn calories faster than at any time of the day.Having a good morning walk and then a healthy breakfast can help to increase the metabolism (新陈代谢) of your body. As the metabolism increases, you burn more calories.
     The first thing to do is to set up a goal that you want to achieve. Therefore, work out a walking routine.
At first, start walking three times a week, and then slowly increase it to five times a week. It"s advisable not
to overdo walking, as it can have side effects on the body. Here are certain easy steps that you need to
follow when you start your daily walking routine.
     Warm-up is an important activity that is to be done before you start to do any kind of exercise. A light
warmup period of about 15 minutes is enough. It will warm up your muscles and avoid any injury to your
body. Exercising without warmup can be dangerous and must be avoided.
     Make sure that you don"t stop anywhere in between your 30 or 45 minutes" walk. Slow down if
necessary. Stopping in your walk won"t help you. Instead, slowing down your speed will help to burn more calories.
     While walking, take long strides (步伐) and swing your arms in a rhythm.This will use up muscles and
help burn more calories.
     In a word, regularity and correctness in walking is the key to success. Best of luck!

 launch a "Move for Health" campaign to boost public awareness.

defined as any body movement that results in energy expenditure (消耗), " said Dr  Danzon."This
includes walking, cycling, playing, housework, climbing stairs as well as sports." He added that children

     Global warming is the process of earth"s atmosphere heating up. Over the last 100 years, the average
temperature of earth"s atmosphere has gone up 1 Fahrenheit. The weather has not changed exactly the
same way in every area of the planet. But scientists think that the rise in average temperature is already
affecting the earth"s climate.
      Many scientists now believe that global warming is caused by cutting down trees, producing more
trash, and polluting the environment which are some of the reasons why the temperature has gone up.
Many scientists believe that the biggest causes of global warming are new human technologies that
release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
     The greenhouse effect is not new. Certain gases in the atmosphere, like carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide
and methane, making it hard for heat energy to go into space. In the past, the climate didn"t change much
because nature produced just the right amount of greenhouse gases to deal with it.
     Today, most scientists are pretty sure that the rising temperature can"t be blamed on nature. Ever since
the industrial revolution in the 1700s, humans have relied on machines for daily life. And many of those
machines give off a lot of greenhouse gases. An increase in the release of greenhouse gases from human
activities is throwing nature off balance.
     The climate is a very complicated thing, but many scientists agree that the rising atmospheric
temperature has already damaged the environment. Sheets of ice, called glaciers, are melting in
Antarctica and other parts of the globe. As glaciers break off and melt into the oceans, they are adding
warm water to the oceans and causing the sea level to rise.
     Over the past 100 years, the sea level has risen 6-8 inches around the world. That means land along
the coasts is beginning to disappear under water. Bigger and warmer oceans are also adding to other
weather problems caused by pollution in the atmosphere. Some places have received more rain, others
have had bigger storms and a few areas in the world have experienced unusual droughts.

1. What is mainly talked about in this passage?

A. The melting of glaciers.                
B. Global warming. 
C. The world"s weather.                  
D. The earth"s temperature.

2. What causes global warming according to scientists?

A. Human activities.                    
B. The nature itself.
C. The earth"s atmosphere.                
D. New discoveries

3. From the passage we can see that global warming will bring about _____.

A. the pollution in the atmosphere            
B. natural disasters
C. population pollution                    
D. the rise of glaciers
