25、s to work, instead of business suits and ties. Why? The answer is simple. The government is trying to reduce the use of air conditioners.Although air conditioners make our lives easier in hot weather, they can be bad for the environment. The coolers use a great deal of electricity to function and ad

26、d to the effects of global warming.But it is a vicious (恶性的) cycle. As temperatures rise, there will be more need for air conditioning.Pawel Wargocki, an expert at the Technical University of Denmark, told The New York Times: “The air conditioning causes a huge problem to global climate and energy u

27、se.” He added, “More and more air conditioners are used. Its very dangerous.”We cant live with air conditioning. But the thing is, we cant live without it either. Scientific studies have shown that if indoor temperatures are high in hot weather, people will suffer from certain health problems and ha

28、ve a lower productivity.For example, when air conditioners were turned down in Japanese offices, the room temperature rose to 3 or higher. As a result, workers started getting headaches, and feeling sleepy.They couldnt give all their attention to work and their productivity dropped by 2 percent, whi

29、ch means they did 30 minutes less work each day, according to Shinichi Tanabe, a professor of architecture at Waseda University in Tokyo, Japan.So the best way to balance our comfort with environmental awareness is to change our expectations. Most of the time, its not that the room is too hot, but t

30、hat we are used to it being cooler.“The temperature many Americans find most comfortable indoors in summer 21C feels uncomfortable to most Europeans, who find it too cold.” said Michael Sivak, professor at a University of Michigan, US. He said it is because Europeans care more about the environment

31、and are willing to accept a bit more heat in summer.Also, we can try to change our daily behavior. Open the windows to let air in, for example. Turning on the air conditioner is not the only way to make us feel comfortable.1What did the Japanese government do to reduce the use of air conditioners?AT

32、o allow the workers to wear T-shirts to work.BTo stop the workers from using air conditioners.CTo let people accept a bit more heat in summer.DTo ask people to open windows to let air in.2The writer probably agrees that _.Amost people will be sick without air conditionersBglobal warming is mainly ca

33、used by air conditionersCpeople have to be used to living without air conditionersDwe should change our expectations to protect environment3We can learn from the passage that _.AJapanese office workers are less productive in summerBAmericans care less about environment than EuropeansCPeople in Denma

34、rk believe air conditioners are dangerousDEuropeans accept a bit cooler than Americans in summer4Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?AProtect Environment: Is it time to change business suits?BProtect Environment: Is it time to focus on temperature?CProtect Environment: Sha

35、ll we change our expectations?DProtect Environment: Shall we stop using air conditioners?D16、CWhat is time? Is it a thing to be saved or spent or wasted, like money? Or is it something we have no control over, like the weather? Is it the same all over the world? Thats an easy question, you say. Wher

36、ever you go, a minute is 60 seconds, an hour is 60 minutes, a day is 24 hours, and so forth. Well, maybe. But in America, time is more than that. Americans see time as a valuable resource(资源). Maybe thats why they like the expression, “Time is money.”Because Americans believe time is a limited resou

37、rce, they try to keep and manage it. People in the US often attend meetings or read books on time management. It seems that they all want to organize their time better. People try their best to press more life out of their time.To Americans, being on time is a way of showing respect(尊重) for other pe

38、oples time. Being more than 10 minutes late usually calls for an apology(道歉) and an explanation. People who are running late often call ahead to let others know that they cant be on time. Of course, the less formal(正式的) the situation is, the less important it is to be exactly on time. At informal ge

39、t-togethers, for example, people often arrive as much as 30 minutes late. But they usually dont try that at work.American lifestyles show how much people respect the time of others. When people plan an event, they often set the time days or weeks before it. Once the time is fixed, it is almost impos

40、sible to change it. If people want to come to your house for a friendly visit, they will usually call first to make sure it is convenient. Only very close friends will just “drop by” unannounced. Also, people seldom call others late at night for fear they might be in bed. The time may be different,

41、but most people think twice about calling after 10:00 pm.Even Americans would agree that no one can master time. Time, like money, slips all too easily through our finger. And time, like the weather, is very hard to predict. However, time is one of lifes most valuable gifts.1From Paragraph 1, we can

42、 learn that _.AAmericans waste lots of money and timeBpeople can only control 60 minutes a dayCAmericans regard time as something valuableDmoney is more important than time in America2In Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4, the writer mainly tells us that _.AAmericans respect others time in daily life BAmer

43、icans never call after ten oclockCAmericans visit friends without calling first DAmericans arrive days before an event3The underlined phrase “think twice” probably means “_”.Apay attention Blearn wisely Cfeel relaxed Dconsider carefully4According to this passage, _.Amost American people treasure the

44、ir timeBpeople can master and predict time easilyCAmericans like time better than anything elseDpeople are supposed to be on time in all situations5This passage mainly talks about _.Asome of the American lifestyles Bhow Americans treat timeCall kinds of ways to spend time Ddifferent opinions about t

When they got to the foot of the mountain, there was no sign of Jake. Jake couldnt find his ski anywhere. In the end, he decid

46、ed to take off his other ski and walk down the mountain. But he couldnt work out the right way to go. It was now getting dark and he was a long way from any place of safety. He knew that he might die that night in the cold temperatures. But Jake kept calm. At home, Jake watched a lot of programmes a

47、bout living in difficult situations. He remembered the advice from these programmes and knew that he should build a hole in the snow. He made a hole so the wind couldnt blow into it. Outside his hole, the temperature fell to a dangerous-15 that night, but inside it Jake was safe from the cold. After

48、 the long evening passed, Jake began to think his way out. He had to get down the mountain. The TV programmes always said,“ If you are lost, you should find someone else s tracks(足迹) through the snow and follow them.” “I wanted to live my life.” Remembered Jake. “So I got up and I found some ski tra

49、cks and I followed those.” He walked and walked and finallysaw lights. His mum was very happy when she heard his son was saved. Amazingly, Jake didnt even have to go to hospital. He got through the terrible experience without any injuries.So, the next time someone says that watching TV is a waste of

54、ll town in Australia. There is a big farm near the town.On Saturday morning, she goes to her small shop. She opens the window of the shop and looks at the farm. Its very beautiful.
