10、days arent usually celebrated for authors who arent alive anymore. But Theodor Seuss Geisel-better known as the childrens books author Dr. Seuss -who came into the world on 2 March, 1904, was an unusual man.Like generations of children I was raised on his wonderful stories. But when I now read them
11、to my children its not just the childhood memories I enjoy. His writing is brilliant and imaginative and flows with a self-confidence as sure as the words of a Shakespeare poem. Readers ride his characteristic rhythm (韵律 ) with an effortless joy that cannot be matched by any other modern writer:You
12、have brains in your headYou have feet in your shoesYou can steer yourself any direction you chooseAnd will you succeed?Yes indeed, yes indeed!Ninety-eight and three-quarters percent guaranteed.Seusss brilliant cartoons and clever words make his books a delight for adults but they attract mostly chil
13、dren of course. His stories teach kids moral lessons but in indirect and entertaining ways.The first Seuss book I was given was The Lorax, written just as the 60s were becoming the 70s. Seuss was ahead of his time, and in this book the dawn of concern for environmental problems are shown as the Lora
14、x “who speaks for the trees” battles against an evil businessman who wants to destroy the forest and make goods “which everyone needs”.Its not only a warning of the heavy price of environmental destruction, written well before most people had thought to worry, but its also a smart analysis of consum
15、er societies: “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better.” This is of course a moral message, but not of the kind designed to persuade the youngsters into behavior that adults want.21. Why does the author include Dr. Seusss poem?4A. To encourage readers to use t
16、heir brains and choose their own way.B. To provide readers with an example of Seusss writing style.C. To give readers a sample of Seusss story The Lorax.D.

18、ere difficult to understand.BEven before my father left us, my mother had to go back to work to support our family.Once I came out of the kitchen, complaining ,“Mom, I cant peel （削）potatoes.I have only one hand.”Mom never looked up from sewing.“You get yourself into that kitchen and peel those potat
19、oes ,”she told me.“And dont ever use that as an excuse for anything again !”In the second grade, our teacher lined up my class on the playground and had each of us race across the monkey bars, swinging from one high steel bar to the next.When it was my turn, I shook my head.Some kids behind me laugh
20、ed, and I went home crying.That night I told Mom about it.She hugged me, and I saw her “well see about that” look.The next afternoon, she took me back to school.At the deserted playground, Mom looked carefully at the bars.“Now, pull up with your right arm ,”she advised.She stood by as I struggled to
21、 lift myself with my right hand until I could hook the bar with my other arm.Day after day we practiced, and she praised me for every rung(横档)I reached.Id never forget the next time, crossing the rungs，I looked down at the kids who were standing with their mouths open.One night, after a dance at my
22、new junior high, I lay in bed sobbing.I could hear Mom come into my room.“Mom ,”I said, weeping ,“none of the boys would dance with me.”For a long time, I didnt hear anything.Then she said ,“Oh, honey, someday youll be beating those boys off with a bat.”Her voice was soft and weak.I 5glanced at her
23、to see tears running down her cheeks.Then I knew how much she suffered on my behalf.She had never let me see her tears.24.

25、e Mom weepB. The childs experience reminded Mom of that of her ownC. Mom suffered more in the process of the childs growthD. Mom could solve any problemCAsk someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling in the home is very im
26、portant of course.However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place. The total
27、 amount of packaging（包装） increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical households waste in the UK. In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard. Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example
28、,is running out of it for carrying this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious
29、problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, a few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example. But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have 6
30、learned to linkpackaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality.This is especially true of food. But it also applies to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary. There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle,
31、we are beginning to realise just how much unnecessary material we are collecting. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb. 27. What does the underlined phrase “over-consumption“ refer to?A.Using too much packaging.B. Having more material than is need
32、ed.C.Recycling too many wastes.D.Making more products than necessary.28.

What can be inferred from Parag
33、raph 4?A.Unpackaged products are of bad quality.B. It is improper to judge quality by packaging.C.Other products are better packaged than food. D.Supermarkets care more about packaging.30. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.Needless material is mostly recycled.B.People like collecting recyc
34、lable wastes.C. Fighting wastefulness is difficult.D.The author is proud of their consumer culture.第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）Things You Should Stop Doing to Be SuccessfulAre you a happy person?

37、 happen to you.If you want to be successful, stop thinking about everything that MAY happen to you. 34 Be ready to improve and change your deeds and decisions when things suddenly dont go according to your plan.Do not care about what other people think of you.35 Your attempts to become “good” for ev
