三、阅读理解
A
We spent a day in the country and picked a lot of flowers. Our car was full of flowers inside! On the way home we had to stop at traffic lights, and there my wife saw the bookshelf.
It stood outside a furniture (家具) shop. “Buy it,” she said at once. “We’ll carry it home on the roof-rack (车顶架)。 I’ve always wanted one like that.”
What could I do? Ten minutes later, I was twenty dollars poorer, and the bookshelf was tied on the roof-rack. It was tall and narrow, quite heavy too.
As it was getting dark, I drove slowly. Other drivers seemed more polite than usual that evening. The police even stopped traffic to let us through. Carrying furniture was a good idea.
After a time my wife said, “There’s a long line of cars behind. Why don’t they overtake (超车)?”
Just at that moment, a police car did overtake. The two officers inside looked t us seriously when they went past. But then, with a kind smile they asked us to follow their car through the busy traffic. The police car stopped at our village church (教堂). One of the officers came to me.
“Right, sir,” he said. “Do you need any more help now?”
I didn’t quite understand. “Thanks, officer,: I said. “You’ve been very kind. I live just down the road.”
He was looking at our things: first at the flowers, then at the bookshelf. “Well, well” he said and laughed. “It’s a bookshelf you’ve got there! We thought it was –er, something else.”
My wife began to laugh. Suddenly I understood why the police drove here. I smiled at the officer. “Yes, it’s bookshelf, but thanks again.” I drove home as fast as I could.

World Book Day falls on 23 April every year. It started in 1 955 to wish people to get the pleasure of reading. It means your teachers or parents tell you to do so. “Reading for pleasure”is very important in our life.

六、任务型阅读
Do you know that a student can produce up to 240 pounds of school waste and lots of waste gas during a term? This includes transportation, food, paper, pens, pencils and so on.
Transportation
Many parents like driving their kids to school every day. We all know waste gas from cars is a main cause of air pollution. If parents who live in a neighborhood can take turns to drive their kids to school each day, that’ll be better. Another way of going green is to walk to school if students live near it.
Food
It is surprising that only one primary school could produce up to 19,000 pounds of lunch waste each year. That is only one school. One way to help take care of the environment is to stop using plastic bags. There are all kinds of environmental boxes for students to put their food in.
Paper, pens and pencils
A lot of paper is thrown away by American students. They throw away about 1.6 billion pens every year. They waste many pens and the chemicals of them are bad for the environment. Much more pencils are thrown away than pens. Pencils are made of trees, so if more pencils are thrown away, more trees will be cut down. So students should reuse paper, pens and pencils instead of throwing them away.
Backpacks
As fashion comes and goes, almost every kid needs a new backpack every year. They can save a lot of money and materials（材料）if they reuse the same schoolbags.
Students and the environment
Transportation If possible, parents in a neighborhood should take__2__ to drive their kids to school each day.
Students can go to school on __3___if their homes are not _4_ from their school.
