A

Sometimes we think that

we would be happy if all our dreams come true. However, it’s the

process of

achieving our goals and it’s the road towards our dreams that enriches us and makes

us happy.

There

was

a

little,

but

always

cranky

girl.

Everything

was

bad

for

her.

There

weren’

t

enough

toys or the gifts she was getting were wrong. She wished to meet an enchantress(

女巫

)that would

tum her life a fairy tale.

One

day

an

enchantress

came

to

the

little

girl

and

said

that

she

would

give

her

the

fulfilment

of one wish every day. The girl became happy: now all her dreams would come true. She thanked

the kind enchantress and ran home.

From that day she was waiting for every morning with joy and enthusiasm: because one more

dream would come true for her. The days passed, the dreams came true... But soon the little girl

realized that fulfilment of the wishes did not give her joy and happiness which she hoped for.

Many wishes brought her disappointment, and some even a pain. Almost every dream was an empty

little girl

’

s caprice(

任性

). Being satisfied,

she

suddenly realized that she did not want

this.

The girl was getting sadder and sadder day by day, and wish-fulfilment did not bring any joy

to her. Soon she started to fear her own dreams.

So the girl went to the kind enchantress and asked her to take her terrible gift back. She

was

afraid

to

live,

afraid

to

wake

up

every

day,

waiting

for

a

coming

execution

(

完成

)

of

another

wish. Crying, she asked an enchantress to fulfil only one her dream: to live as she lived before

and enjoy life.

Kind enchantress had mercy upon the little girl. She waved her magic wand and disappeared.

The girl ran home. She was happy, because she knew that now she would painstakingly seek for her

one big cherished dream, not wasting time with short-term, in fact, quite unnecessary whims.

21. Why wasn’t the girl happy at the very beginning?

A. Because she didn’t have good toys and gifts.

B. Because she was afraid to live or wake up every day.

C. Because she was not satisfied with everything around her.

D. Because she hadn

’t met an enchantress that would change her life.

22. What does “this”

in paragraph 4 mean?

A. Every dream was an empty girl’s caprice.

B. Her wishes were fulfilled one by one as time went by.

C. She could enjoy her life and chase her dream freely.

D. The fulfilment of

the wishes didn’t give her

joy and happiness.

23. According to the passage, we’ll be happy if we

A. meet a kind enchantress

B. realize all our small dreams

C. live an extraordinary life and enjoy it

D. work hard for one precious dream

Indian

scientists

have

designed

a

new

device

they

hope

will

solve

one

of

the

biggest

problems

with the use of solar energy. They call the device a solar tree.

Daljit

Bedi

is

the

chief

scientist

at

the

Council

of

Scientific

and

Industrial

Research(CSIR),

where the solar tree was designed.

Bedi says the shape of the solar trees makes it possible to fit more photovoltaic panels (

光

电板

) in a space than traditional systems do. This means less land would be needed to produce

solar energy.

“It takes about four

-square meters of space to produce energy which otherwise would have

required 400 square meters of

space,” he says. “So almost 100 times the space is saved, which

is very valuable.”

Buying land to develop roads, factories and other infrastructure has been a disputed issue

in

India.

Disagreements

often

lead

to

protests

(

抗议

)

by

those

forced

to

move.

Some

of

the

protests

have turned violent.

Scientists believe the energy a solar tree collects will be enough to power five homes. The

space-saving tree will make it easier to provide solar energy to homes in cities, they say. The

trees will also take less space from farmers in rural areas. Bedi says solar trees will collect

more energy than normal photovoltaic panels on the tops of buildings.

India is the

world’s

th

ird largest

producer

of

greenhouse

gases. The country promised to reduce

its

rate

of

greenhouse

gas

production

at

the

United

Nations

Conference

on

Climate

Change

in

Paris

last

year.

India

said,

by

2030,

it

would

reduce

its

rate

of

greenhouse

gas

production

by

one

third

over its levels in 2005.

The

cost

of

photovoltaic

panels

has

gone

down

in

recent

years.

This

has

made

solar

power

cheaper

and

easier

to

use.

But,

some

people

worry

about

the

need

to

buy

large

areas

of

land

for

traditional

solar energy collectors.

24. According to the passage, the solar tree is .

A. a device to solve land problems

B. used to make better use of greenhouse gases

C. designed to produce solar energy with less land

D. cheaper than other energy producing devices

25. What may lead to protests in India?

A. To buy land to build factories.

B. To be forced to leave their homes.

C. To build more solar trees on the roads.

D. To use violence to solve the disputed issues.

26. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The cost of the solar tree is lower than the traditional photovoltaic panels.

B. The solar tree can save 100 square meters of space than the traditional systems.

C. Indiadecidedtocutitsgreenhousegaspro ductinyargeamountintefuture.

D. India is the

world’s largest producer of

greenhouse gases.

“I think I’m nothing more than a dead fish.” “I don’t want to do anything. ”“I’m so

beat and so

sad. “

...

The young generation in our country used to enjoy their “happy culture”

but now they have become

“beat and sad”

slowly and secretly. Some people e

ven called it “the

beat culture”. The

“Beat” youths don’t

want to do anything. They have no purpose, no desire

and

they

are

totally

depressed

so

that

they

only

want

to

live

an

aimless

life.

The

“Ge

You

slouch

(

葛优瘫)”and the song

I feel like having been drained

are the examples.

Many media concern themselves about this phenomenon and try to persuade the youths into

embracing positive and healthy feelings and encourage them to work hard to get rid of decadence.

This

is

really

a

kind

gesture.

However,

we

don’t

have

to

worry

too

much

about

this

“beat

culture.”

In fact, it’s not a

negative thing. “Beat”never means despair, but a way of self

-mockery (

自

嘲

) and pressure relief.

In

general,

the

youths

in

China

are

not

“beat”.

According

to

a

recent

international

research,

the youths in China hold positive attitude towards the future. 29% of the Chinese interviewees

believe they will live and work

in peace in China because “as lon

g as you work hard, you can

have

your

own

day”

.

Around

93%

of

the

Chinese

interviewees

believe

the

future

is

promising

because

of medicine industry, renewable energy sources and computer. Compared with Chinese youngsters,

youths in developed countries are more pessimistic (

悲观的

).

Of

course

there

are

s

ome

social

reasons

for

the

appearing

of

“the

Beat

Culture”.

As

urbanization develops rapidly, youths living in big cities are facing new challenges that their

forefathers

have

never

encountered

before.

Loneliness

and

feelings

of

insignificance

and

powerlessness are easy to get hold of the young people. Without proper care, they could threaten

our mentality and cause many social problems. These problems probably need our attention more.

27. “The Beat culture”inc

ludes the following examples except that

A. the young generation don’t feel like doing anything.

B. the young generation consider themselves dead fish.

C. the young generation in big cities are facing new challenges.

D. the young generation enjoy the song I feel like having been drained.

28. Which word has the most similar meaning with

“

decadence

in Paragraph 2?

A. loneliness

B. laziness

C. sufferings

D. pessimism

29. What can we learn from the passage?

A. Most people believe that with hard work, people can have their own day.

B. These days, young people suffer much more loneliness than their parents.

C. Chinese youths are more negative than young people in developed countries.

D. Social development does bring some pressure to the younger generation.
