There are students from all over the world at the United World School. In this school these students study and spend their free time together. The school believes this will help them grow up to be knowledgeable, caring and friendly.
Once a year, there is a special “United Nations” show. Students are allowed to show anything they want, but anything that comes from their traditional cultures. To get ready for the festival, they have to teach each other. And the school believes this will help them understand and enjoy the culture of their friends better.
This school also believes that students should be allowed to make some decisions themselves. For example, the older students are allowed to wear what they want and the younger students are allowed to choose which kind of uniform they want to wear. But all students are asked not to wear an expensive necklace or something else like that, and not to wear clothes that will make other students unhappy.
It is never possible to make everybody happy, but if we want to have a much more wonderful world, it is important for students to understand and enjoy other cultures as well as to be proud of their own.

Dinner customs (习惯) are different around the world. If you are a guest in Ghana( 加纳), this information will help you a lot.
In Ghana, dinner is usually from four in the afternoon to six in the evening. But there are no strict rules (规则) about time. Whenever a guest arrives, a family offers food.

The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and modern communication. Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution.
To pollute means to make things unfit or unclean to use. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even eat it. Pollution is beginning to threaten (威胁) our health, our happiness and our life.
Man has been polluting the earth from the time he first made fire, washed his clothes in the river and threw his waste on the ground. When land was used up or water became dirty, men moved on to another place. At first, the problem was not so serious because there was plenty of clean air, land and water. There weren’t so many people then and their wants fewer. All the dirty things could be absorbed(吸收) by nature and soon covered over. But this is no longer true. The increase of pollution and the development of industry(工业) have changed that. Man is slowly poisoning(毒害)not only his environment but also himself.
Through the use of poison, man has polluted the land, killing the animals. By putting dirty water and chemicals into rivers and lakes we have polluted our drinking water, killing the fish.
Our increasing population is part of the problem. More people, more waste.
Where is this all to end Are we turning the world into a big rubbish dump(堆存处)，or is there any hope that we can get rid of (摆脱，除去) the pollution Luckily, millions of people have been warned of the danger of pollution. Large numbers of people are now working hard to bring pollution under control.
The earth is our home. We must take care of it. This means keeping the land, air and water clean. And we must take care of the rise in pollution at the same time.
( )56. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage
A. We live on the earth, so we should look after it.
B. Man is fighting against different kinds of pollution.
C. To pollute means to make air, water and land unfit for use.
D. All the waste produced by modern industry can be absorbed.
( )57. In Paragraph4, the underlined word “chemicals” mean ____________.
A. 化学物质 B. 医疗器械 C. 污染源 D. 塑料制品
( )58. Through the uncontrolled use of poison man has___________.
A. made the drinking water dirty B. polluted the land
C. killed the animals D. all of the above
( )59. From the sentences “More people, more waste.” We know that ___________
A. we need more people, not more waste
B. the increase of population caused more waste.
C. there isn’t any hope that we can get rid of the pollution
D. More people have been warned of the danger of more waste.
( )60. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A. Man begins to understand the pollution.
B. Man doesn’t know how to control pollution.
C. Man is doing something to control pollution.
D. Man still doesn’t realize how serious pollution is.

七.任务型阅读 阅读短文，按要求完成各题。（5分）
1) DIY, which means Do It Yourself, is quite popular in UK. Lots of stores and supermarkets sell DIY things. TV programmes show people how to DIY.
2) English people like DIY. There is a saying in UK----“As Englishman’s home is his castle”. Huge number of people spend their holidays making their homes beautiful “castles”. If there is anything that needs fixing around their homes, such as painting the walls or putting in a new shower, they will do the jobs themselves. They share DIY experience with their friends. More and more people have discovered the joy of DIY. Sometimes people also DIY for saving money. With the economic downturn at present, many people can not afford a big house. They are looking at how they can make their house better without spending a lot of money. It is not surprising that DIY is so popular.
3) DIY can be difficult. There is a huge market for DIY furniture which people need to get together themselves with a few basic tools. However, people often find it not easy to build a piece of furniture because they can’t understand the instructions. Sometimes the instructions are simple and clear, but the furniture itself is difficult to build. One thing is for sure, though most DIY projects are started with the best intentions. Many of them may not get finished. DIY can also be dangerous. For example, anything electrical should be done by a professional worker. Unluckily, many people don’t care about this warning and put themselves in danger. It is reported that in just one year over 230,000 people were hurt while doing DIY in UK, including 41,000 who fell off ladders.
4) Therefore , DIY can bring us fun and help us save money, but it is not always as easy as it is thought to be if we bite off more than we can chew. Maybe factories should make products that are easier and safer for us to DIY.
