You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off and it is often late. You cant open the windows. You cant choose the food. Planes are fast, but it still takes you hours to go out of the airport and into the city. I like taking the train. I think trains are safe . Train stations are usually in cities. When you are late for a train, you can catch another one. You can walk around in the train and open the windows. You can see many interesting things on your way. I know it takes a little more time. I also like cars. You can start your journey when you want to, and you dont need to go to a train station or a bus stop. Also you can take many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.21. Why do many people like to travel by plane? A. Because its fast. B. Because you can go around in the plane. C. Because its safe. D. Because its cheap.22. Which is NOT the good thing about the train? A. It is safe. B. It is fast. C. You can open the windows. D. You can walk around in the train.23. If you want to take a lot of things with you, what should you take to go out? A. A bus. B. A train. C. A car. D. A plane.B Using too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put our water supply in danger , but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways. You may wonder how paving(鋪砌) a road can lead to less useable fresh water. A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater. Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers. It comes from underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave, the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater. Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages(短缺). Drier climates are of course more likely to have droughts(干旱) than areas with more rainfall, but in any case, good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs.Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference, too. In the United States , a family of four can use 1. 5 tons of water a day! This shows how much we depend on water to live, but theres a lot we can do to lower the number. You can take steps to save water in your home. To start with, use the same glass for your drinking water all day. Wash it only once a day. Run your dishwasher (洗碗機(jī))only when it is full .Help your parents fix any leaks in your home. You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away.24.Which of the following is most likely to lead to less groundwater?AUsing river water. BPaving parking lots.CThrowing batteries away. DThrowing rubbish into lakes.25.What can be inferred from the text?A. It takes a lot of effort to meet our water needs.BAll water shortages are due to human behaviorCThere is much we can do to reduce family size.DThe average family in America makes proper use of water.26.The last paragraph is intended to .Ashow us how to fix leaks at home Btell us how to run a dishwasherCsuggest what we do to save water at home Dprove what drinking glass is best for us27.The text is mainly about .Awhy paving roads reduces our water Bhow human activity affects our water supplyCwhy droughts occur more in dry climates Dhow much we depend on water to liveC. 5/6 Mon.There is going to be a busy week.

D In 1883. John Roebling was inspired by an idea to build a spectacular bridge connecting New York with the Long Island. However, bridge building experts throughout the world thought this was impossible and told Roebling to forget the idea, but Roebling could not ignore the vision he had in his mind of this bridge. After much discussion and persuasion he managed to convince his son Washington, an up -and -coming engineer, that the bridge in fact could be built. The project started well, but when it was only a few months underway, a tragic accident on the site took the life of John Roebling. Washington was injured and left with a certain amount of brain damage, which resulted in him not being able to walk or talk or even move. We told them so. Crazy men and their crazy dreams.Its foolish to chase wild visions. Everyone had a negative comment to make and felt that the project should be abandoned since the Roeblings were the only ones who knew how the bridge could be built. In spite of his handicap, Washington was never discouraged. One day he was lying on his bed in hospital, seeing the sky and the tops of the trees outside for just a moment with the sunlight streaming through the windows, and a gentle breeze bowing the flimsy white curtains apart when an idea hit him. He decided to make the best use of the only finger he could move. Thus, he slowly developed a code of communication with his wife. He touched his wifes arm with that finger, indicating to her that he wanted her to call the engineers again. Then he used the same method of tapping her arm to tell the engineers what to do. It seemed foolish but the project was under way again. For 13 years Washington tapped out his instructions with his finger on his wifes arm until the bridge was finally completed.32.

People should wash all surfaces and equipment used for preparing food.Key 2: Separate raw (生的) and cookedRaw foods should not touch prepared foods. 37.Key 3: 38People should cook eggs and meat especially carefully. These foods may carry more micro-organisms (微生物) than other foods. Food like soup must be boiled for at least a minute to make it be cooked completely. It is also important that people re-heat cooked food completely.Key 4: Keep food at safe temperaturesWhen people are finished with eating, they should keep the left food in a refrigerator below 5oC and shouldnt store it for too long.
