三、阅读理解 (共4小题,每小题2分,满分8分)
Planetary changes which will have an influence on many are drawing near because of the poor ecological (生态的) state of the planet. Actually change has already begun through climate (气候) changes, but most humans haven’t noticed this yet. Climate change has begun to influence the world already and will begin to worsen within the next few years. Around 2024 most people will begin to see that the results of climate change will be far more serious than now understood.
As the planet is under big geological (地质的)stresses, which are continuously increasing, it will in the future no longer be able to support its population. Scarcity (缺乏) of resources, over-farming, lack of clean air, not enough clean drinking water and drought are some of the problems that will all play a much greater role in the near future.
Humans have caused large ecological devastation (破坏). The lifestyles of many people are improving at a fast speed, however, this will finally result in a shortage of some valuable resources. When this shortage begins to happen, people will no longer be able to have sustainable (可支撑的) lifestyles.
It’s important to understand that everyone plays a role in the whole process of life. Each person’s decision can finally affect the future. These decisions, all combined, can have good effect on what the future will be like for humans. So the future depends on the choices we make at the present moment.
While more and more people are becoming aware of climate change and other environmental problems related to global warming, not all are fully understanding how far-reaching its effects will be. Unfortunately, most of the humans are aware that the planet isn’t functioning well, but they don’t understand that this is creating a major problem for the future survival of humans.

五、阅读与回答问题 (共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)
A wise teacher once told me that every teenager needs to experience a not-so-fun first job from working at a grocery (食品) store to the fast food industry.
Now I still remember my first day at a fast food restaurant three years ago. I wanted to save money and buy my own car, so I looked for a job everywhere that summer. The restaurant called me right away and I thought to myself “this is going to be easy”. Within four hours of my first day, I had angry customers who complained how slow I was. I watched in fear as a kid spilled his milk everywhere, and I heard the words, “Mike, there’s a problem in the man’s bathroom and you might want gloves for this one.” I realized right away that working at the restaurant was not going to be picnic. The manager expected a clean environment and particularly fast service with a friendly smile.
Over three years later I still work at that restaurant whenever I go home during vacations. I love my co-workers there and all the customers know who I am. Every morning the same senior citizens come in and get their morning coffee. They chat with us workers and joke around. Our smiles have just as much to do with them making us a part of their everyday lives at the coffee does.
From my first job at the restaurant, I learned teamwork and devotion (热心). I also learned staying positive no matter how rough things seem to get. I will forever carry the experience that I gained at the restaurant with me as I go forward in my life.
