A: Hi, Li Wen! It’s so great to meet you here.
B: Yeah, I’m going to my uncle’s home near Xinglong lake. It’s his birthday today, and many of our 【1】will go there.
A: Great. But why are you taking the subway? You said Subway Line 1 was always 【2】. There is no place for people to stand sometimes.
B: Well, taking the subway to his home is 【3】and fast. I won’t trouble to change the buses and walk for a long time.
A: I see. By the way, you were reading a book, right?
B: Yes. I didn’t like reading on the subway. But I have got used to 【4】my time on something meaningful when I’m on the underground. Have you heard of “The Book on the Underground Movement”?
A: Pardon? Can you tell me some information about it?
B: It all started from the Harry Potter star Emma. You know, she left 100 books on the underground in London. She did so in order to 【5】people to read.
A: Sounds like a great idea.
B: Then Chinese stars like Huang Xiaoming and Wu Lei, are placing books on underground subway system. Many people support this movement while others don’t.
A: Well. I think it’s good for the people who take part. People usually focus their eyes on phones on the subway, looking 【6】information quickly and leaving no useful messages in their heads.

24、In the 13th century, Marco Polo, the world known Italian traveler, saw many wonderful things in China. One of the things he discovered was money made of paper. People in the West did not have such kind of money until the 15th century. However, the Chinese began to use it in the 7th century.
Paper was invented by a Chinese man called Cai Lun almost 2, 000 years ago. But it was not made in Europe until the year 1100.Four hundred years later, a German discovered that he could make the best paper from trees. After that, countries rich in forests, such as Canada, Sweden, Finland became the most important ones in paper making.
Paper can be used in many ways. The common uses include newspapers, magazines and books. But do you know that paper can be used for keeping warm?In Finland, the farmers wear paper boots to keep their feet warm in the snow. And even houses can be insulated (使绝缘的)from heat or cold with paper.
However, we have to understand that paper still comes from trees now. If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth some day in the near future. Every day people throw away about 2, 800 tons of paper in our country. It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper. This means that we are cutting down nearly 48,000 trees every day. The fact is that it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow.
So we must start saving paper right now. We can use both sides of every piece of paper. We can make useful things out of used paper. We can use china cups instead of paper ones. When shopping, we can use fewer paper bags and reuse them if we have some.
In short, we should keep a balance (平衡) between using paper and protecting trees, and do it now before it is too late.
【1】When did the Chinese begin to use paper money?
A.In the 5th century.
B.In the 6th century.
C.In the 7th century.
D.In the 15th century.
【2】Why did Canada become an important country in paper making?
A.Because it was a large country.
B.Because it had lots of forests.
C.Because it was a very rich country.
D.Because the inventor was from Canada.
【3】In Finland, paper is used for ________.
A.making beds
B.reducing waste
C.making umbrellas
D.keeping warm
【4】According to the passage, how many trees are needed to make one ton of paper?
A.10.
B.17
C.2.800
D.48, 000.
25、CBC Canada, CTV News
A group of Canadian kids are spreading a bit of Christmas spirit in Halifax, Nova Scotia, by covering warm clothes around light poles(灯杆) for the city's homeless people to pick up and use. It was such an unusual sight that locals stopped to take pictures to share on social media(媒体).
Every year, Tara AtkinsSmith collects warm clothes from her community in order to help the less lucky. This year, since the family was travelling to Halifax with their daughter Jayda and seven of her friends to celebrate her 8th birthday, Tara thought it was the perfect time to teach the children a valuable life lesson.
The kids spent time handing out coats to the homeless and tied the rest around light poles for others to pick up. Each of the clothes had a tag that read, “I am not lost. If you are caught in the cold, please take me to keep warm.”According to Tara, the experience helped the children better understand the difficult situation of homeless people, who have to brave the cold winter on the streets. “When we got back in the car after an hour on the streets, they were all freezing cold and crying for the heater(火炉) to be on because they were cold,” she said.
By next morning, all the jackets, gloves, and scarves on the poles were gone. Photos of the inspiring project have been shared about 8,000 times on Facebook, and have got over 10,000 likes. Tara, who did something similar in Toronto in December last year, says she's already planning next year's coat drive. She hopes that the meaningful thing can spread around the world, and she also wants to add $5 fast food gift card so that the homeless people can also enjoy a hot meal.
“We've got help from others when we were in need, and we knew how great it made us feel,” said Zackary Atkins, Tara's husband.

27、The lyrebird (琴鸟) is one of Australia’s best-known birds. It has a small head and long, strong legs. Its body is dark brown or gray. The female has a long brown tail behind her but the lyrebird is remembered because of the male’s extremely beautiful tail. It has sixteen feathers and is about one metre long. The two outer feathers of the tail are golden brown and curved. This curved shape reminds people of a musical instrument — the lyre. The other surprising thing about the lyrebird is that it can copy perfectly any sound around. It can remember the songs of about twenty other kinds of birds. These days, lyrebirds have been heard copying the sounds of car alarms and crying babies!
Lyrebirds are found in wet rainforest. Because they are not great flyers, they spend most of their time on the floor where there is plenty of food. They use their strong claws to turn over rocks to find something to eat.
After growing into an adult, the male makes a space in the forest, or builds a hill, and he dances on the hill. He spreads his tail forward over his head and shakes it, jumping and moving slowly from side to side. The male sings wonderful songs. How could any female refuse his love?
The female builds her own nest in an old tree or on some rocks. It is a round nest with a hidden side entrance which helps to protect the eggs from other hungry animals. She lays a single egg and brings up her chick alone.
When in danger, lyrebirds will try to run away. They can use their wings to fly onto low trees and rocks. They also use strange sounds they can make to scare away their enemies.
