22、rtant role in the global efforts to reduce C02 emissions(排放 ). Households use one third of the final energy and produce around two thirds of city waste in the European Union. Besides， housing, food， and private transport make up almost 80 of environmental pressures. Therefore theres no doubt that co
23、nsumers can make a real difference in fighting climate change To direct consumers towards more environmentally-friendly decisions， we need clear and simple instructions to guide consumption behavior. Actually, two thirds of consumers find it hard to figure out which products are better for the envir
24、onment, for 58% Europeans think that many businesses just pretend to be green so as to charge higher prices. Thus industry should work harder to give consumers more information about the carbon footprint of their product. For example, inform customers of products made from materials that are recycle
25、d， renewable, and or less carbon-intensive. People prefer high-quality products that will last long and wont go out of style, though they might sometimes cost more, especially in time of crisis. Firms that make durable（持久耐用的） or recyclable products cause people to behave more responsibly, which may
26、help put an end to our “throw-way” culture However, it is not enough to remind people of green products. Its more important to direct people to follow a practical lifestyle model. Regulations alone cannot achieve this purpose. We call for good business communities to create a loyal group of “sustain
27、able(可持续的 ) consumers”. 【小题 1】 According to the passage, the key to going greener globally is A to provide enough information about sustainable products B to get the government involved in protecting the environment C to encourage consumers to make their efforts to live a green way D to direct compa

D the importance of lifestyle. 答案： 【小题 1】 C 【小题 2】 B 【小题 3】 C 【小题 4】 D United States and Canada are multicultural countries with many national, religious and cultural differ
31、ences, where people attach great importance to individualismthe uniqueness among people. Teachers value th e qualities that make each student special and different. You can see such values through their educational systems. For example, students neednt memorize lots of information. Instead, they wor
32、k independently and find answers on their own. There are discussions for children to show their own ideas and opinions. By contrast, people have the same language, history, and culture in most Asian societies. As a result, Asias educational system reflects societys belief in group goals and purposes
33、 rather than individualism. Children in China, Japan, and Korea learn to work together and help one another in assignments. And the teaching methods are often very formal and serious. In class, teachers give lectures while students listen and take notes. Discussion is replaced by reciting rules of i
34、nformation that have been memorized. These two systems both have advantages and disadvantages. One advantage in Japan is that there is much more math and science than American students learn by the end of high school. In addition, students study more hours each day and more days each year than North
35、 Americans do. The difficult system also prepares students for a society that place emphasis on discipline and self-control. However, while memorization is an important learning method in Japanese schools, yet many students admit forgetting much of the information that they have memorized after exam
36、s. On the other hand, the educational system in North American has an advantage that students learn to think for themselves, which prepares them for a society that values creativity. The disadvantage is that when they graduate from high school, they havent recited as many basic rules and facts as st
37、udents in other countries have. 【小题 1】 People in multicultural countries such as the US or Canada lay more stress on _.

40、题 1】 D 【小题 2】 B 【小题 3】 D 【小题 4】 B One of my most unforgettable experiences is the day I finished my tough rowing and keep myself free of loneliness. As the youngest female ever to row alone across the Atlantic Ocean, I was often asked the same question: How did you, a only 20-year old youngster row
41、a 18-foot boat for 70 days through those strong winds and violent waves and survive Frankly speaking, for me, the physical challenge was not the greatest one. Before I made my mind to row across the Atlantic, I had already cycled 3,300 miles, run all by myself across the Mojave Desert, and swum the
42、325-mile length of the Allegheny River. No, the hardest part would be mental: How would I cope with the terrible loneliness and the boredom on the vast sea for such a long time I set out on January 1 and my first object was to swim past the quarter-way mark, which would take about 20 days. I made it
43、 on January 20, a gray and cloudy day. I had thought to do something to celebrate my first goal such as treating myself to a chocolate bar or something else. But I didnt. I was suffering from unbearable boredom and loneliness of the long sea journey. I hadnt seen any landing at least more than two w
44、eeks. It seemed to feel the same every day. Eating, rowing, sleeping, staring at the sky, watching the ocean. Then that day came! It was around dusk, I noticed something move on the horizon. Yes, some dolphins! They approached me and circled my boat. Suddenly I felt so blessed. They had arrived to a
45、ccompany me and helped to celebrate, just when I needed them so badly! For the next 15 minutes, I did row at full speed with all my strength with those lovely dolphins around. By the time they were to leave me and we went our separate ways, I was no longer lonely. After 70 days and five hours at sea
46、, I finally reached my final destination. I was proud that I made it, all 2,817 miles, which helped to raise $70,000 for the Blue Planet Run Foundation, an organization for funding drinking water. Ive been told some athletes struggled to get through just by imagining the end during the whole process
47、. But for me, what makes miracle is to focus your mind on the moment, where you experience the personal growththose moments of awareness of bein g connected to the sun, the weather, and the waves. And, on the best day of my life, I had to admit those dolphins really freed myself from terrible loneliness. 【小题 1】 Which of the following belongs to part of preparation for the row A Answering the same question raised by people B Swimming the 325-mile length of the river C Running 3,300 miles cross-country D Biking across the Mojave Desert 【小题 2】 The underlined part means _. A I wasnt
