The world keeps changing and it has always kept changing. During the second century after Christ, a wise man said, “Bury me on my face

11、because in a little while everything will be turned upside down.”There has always been a gap between generations, though more people talk about it now.

12、hought the world was a beautiful place. My life was very pleasant. But when I was older I learned about people who were treated badly, people who didnt have enough to eat.

13、m to make much difference.“Our children grew up in a world at war. They didnt know when the war would stop. They wanted their children to have nice clothes and toys.

18、 sixty-eight, he retired. But a lot of people still come to ask him to look them over. Hes very busy in the daytime and he wants to have a good rest at night.Half a year ago a young man moved into the room upstairs. At first he was quiet. The old man was satisfied with him.

19、iends. They often come to see him in the evening. They talk loudly, sing and dance. Mr. Anders is unhappy, but he seldom says anything about it.It was the young mans birthday yesterday. All his friends came at seven in the evening. They drank too much and made a lot of noise. The old man couldnt fal

20、l asleep the whole night. In the morning, as soon as he got up, he went upstairs and knocked at the door.

24、 Hawaii, the people and the land always offer an endless gift of love and kindness.What are the beauties of Hawaii? Lets start with four.The beach, famous for its water temperature, air temperature and waves, naturally, is the first beauty. There are hundreds of miles of beaches on the twenty island

25、s of Hawaii. Most of them are covered with fine white sand. They are thought to be among the finest beaches in the world.Then, what do you think would be the second beautiful thing you would notice? They are volcanoes, of course. These volcanoes are not just a part of the islands; they made the isla

26、nds in the first place. Because of them the islands are still growing. The most famous volcano on Hawaii is Mauna Loa. It is the worlds most active volcano. Because Mauna Loa has erupted so often, it has become the biggest (but not the tallest) mountain in the world.What would be the third thing of

27、beauty that the first visitor to Hawaii would notice? It probably wouldnt be just one thing, but many things: all the wonderful fruit and flowers of the islands. Sugar cane and pineapples are Hawaiis biggest exports. Sugar cane has been growing in Hawaii for a thousand years and now Hawaii produces

28、over one million tons of sugar a year. As for pineapples, the islands produce more than any other place in the world, which has made Dole Company the biggest fruit-packing company in the world.The fourth and most beautiful thing about Hawaii is the people who live there. From its earliest days, Hawa

29、ii has had a peaceful history. The Polynesians who came to the islands about a thousand years ago believed that a stranger should be welcomed. They offered strangers food and comfort, and thought of them as brothers. The Hawaiians never rush, and perhaps this is because they care more for human life

30、 than they care for the machine. There is an old Hawaiian law that a man can go to sleep in the middle of the road if he wants to. What makes the people of Hawaii so beautiful is their feeling about people. There are 64 different combinations of races on the islands, and they all live in peace. They

31、 believe “Above all nations is humanity.” That is the most beautiful thing of all.26. According to the passage, Hawaii is made up of _.A. one islandB. twenty islands.C. sixty-four islands.D. hundreds of islands.27. Why are the volcanoes so special to the islands?A. They erupt often.B. They are growi

32、ng.C. They actually made the islands.D. They are not a part of the islands.28. What has made Dole Company the biggest fruit-packing company in the world？A. sugarB. fruitsC. sugar caneD. pineapples29. According to the passage, why are the people in Hawaii the most beautiful thing?A. Because they had

33、a peaceful history.B. Because there are 64 different races on the islands.C. Because they care more for people than anything else.D. Because they can sleep in the middle of the road if they want.30. According to the passage, “above all nations is humanity” might mean _.A. nations all share the same

34、humanity.B. humanity has no national boundariesC. nations in the world all have humanityD. humanity is more important than nationsPassage FourAll over the world, and for many different reasons, there are millions of people who rarely or never eat meat. These people are called vegetarians. To people

35、who eat meat, being a vegetarian may seem like a very strange thing, but most vegetarians are very happy with their choice of diet. They chose such diets for several different reasons.First, vegetarians have an enormous health advantage. One of the major health problems in modern societies is not to

36、o little protein but too much food, especially in the form of animal fats. Medical evidence suggests that animal fats, including butter, contribute to the development of cholesterol in the human body. High amounts of cholesterol seem to be part of the cause of heart disease. Most vegetarians have lo

37、w levels of cholesterol. High amounts of animal fats also seem to lead to certain kinds of cancer, and vegetarians are typically less vulnerable to these cancers than people who eat a lot of meat. Overall, studies comparing the health of vegetarians and meat-eaters show that the meat-eaters are twic

38、e as likely to die of heart disease as vegetarians are.Better health is one reason that people choose to become vegetarians. Another reason is religion. Some religions forbid the eating of meat. The largest of these is the Hindu religion, which has about 600 million believers in the world. Although

39、not all Hindus are vegetarian, many are, and there are many believers of other religions such Buddhism and even some Christian religions who also do not eat meat.Many vegetarians do not eat meat simply because they do not like the taste of it. They have no religious or philosophical reasons; they ju

40、st do not like meat. Another important reason that vegetarians give for not eating meat is the health advantages that were given above. Lastly, there are many people who do not eat meat because they just do not like the idea of killing animals for food. They believe that life, all life, is valuable,

41、 and that we do not have to destroy life to feed ourselves when there are other good sources of food.31. According to the passage, people choose to be vegetarians for the following reasons EXCEPT _.A. they want to stay healthyB. they are too kind to put the idea of killing animalsC. they live in are

Vegetarians never eat meat for whatever reasons.B. There are more vegetarians than meat-eaters in the world.C. Vegetarians

44、 cannot eat meat because of their health problems.D. Some vegetarians cannot get used to eating meat because of the taste.34. What does “vulnerable” mean in Paragraph 2?A. Having low level of cholesterol.B. Having high level of cholesterol.C. Having weak ability to resist diseases and harms.D. Havin
