Do you have a nickname（昵称）? Most of us do by our looks, clothing, or personality. But for cities, the meaning of their nicknames has much more than that.
Many big cities have nicknames, such as New York-----The Big Apple, London -----The Great Smog, and Rome-----The Etemal（永恒的）City. Why do cities have such nicknames?
In the 1920s , there were many races in New York. People called the prizes of these races apples. Writer John J. Fitz Gerald first called New York the Big Apple, because New York is the place that many people dreamed of going to for the biggest prize of all.
For Rome ,as the name suggests, the answer is simple. Romans believed that no matter what happened to the world, Rome would go on forever. Rome has been an important center of power for more than 2,000 years.
As for London, in the Victorian period, it had problems with its air . Late in 1952, serious air pollution made 10,000 people fall ill. But now the air of London has become better.
Does that sound interesting? Does your city have a nickname?

What do you think of a forest? What do you see? Just trees? Or do you see many other things, such as singing birds, colorful plants and wild flowers?
The forest is a whole world of its own. It is full of many different living things. But even though they are all different, they have one thing in common: They all need each other in order to live on.
The trees feed the forest “people” by making food in their leaves; by using sunlight to join water and mineral(矿物) from the soil and air. Their deep network of roots joins the soil together and stops it from dying out, making it possible for living things to live in it.
Human beings are like the living things in the forest. We need one another in order to live. We need the farmers to grow our food, railroad and truck drivers to bring it to our shops and clerks to sell it to us. We need people to prepare our food and cook it and others to take our waste things away. Then, of course, we need doctors, nurses, government leaders, mailmen, telephone operators, and many others.
We also need other human beings in another way. We need people for friendship, to talk over our problems and exchange ideas. Think how lonely and unhappy you would be if you lived all alone.
Life is a matter of giving and taking. We need to help other people as much as we need other people to help us. Think what a good feeling you have when you have done something for someone else. You know, being a volunteer is so great!

A. the leaves of the trees B. water and minerals
C. the soil and air D. all of the above
72. It is the that make it possible for living things to live in the forest.?
A. trees B. birds C. plants D. farmers
73. According to the writer, human beings are the forest “people”.?
A. different from B. like C. dislike D. unhappy with
74. The writer mainly wants to tell us _________.
A. we need people for friendship B. we need one another in order to live
C. the forest is a whole world of its own D. the forest is full of different living things
75. Which one is the relationship between a forest and your life?
A. We can see trees in the forest.
B. We like the living things in the forest.
C. We need the farmers to grow our food in the forest.
D. We are the same as the forest: We need each other to live on.

VII.阅读短文，根据短文用完整的语句回答问题（10分）
Although many people read online, books have not gone out of fashion. In Beijing, Guangzhou and Shanghai, lucky passengers may find books somewhere on the underground.
The Fair, an online publishing company, has put 10,000 books on the underground, planes and taxis to make people more interested in reading. This project is called “Mobook”.
“Mobook” gets its idea from “Books on the Underground”, a community project in London. The purpose of “Books on the Underground”is to encourage people to read more. Zhang Wei, the CEO of the Fair also wanted to do something in China. He sent an e-mail to Ms Cordelia Oxley, the leader of “Books on the Underground”, describing his plan and explaining the rules of “ Mobook”. The leader replied to him in just two hours, saying that she thought the idea was great and she would offer help if needed.[来源:Zxxk.Com]
But “Mobook” project is a little different from that in London. It has its own online system. People who want to donate books must give their information online. QP code stickers(二维码标签）are then sent to their addresses. The book owners should stick them on the books before donating books and readers can know where the books are with the help of QP codes.
“Mobook” is a hot topic. Now thousands of bookworms have already taken part in the project. Zhang Wei said, “ I am happy to see more and more people share their views(观点）about the books online and enjoy the happiness that reading brings to them.”
