The government and local farmers have been planting millions of trees to build a great green "wall" along the edge of the desert.    "Tree planting has become a tradition in China now," says Lin Tao. "Almost everyone does it on March 12th. Many people also plant a tree on a   9  day. My parents planted a tree when started school. And my cousin planted   10  on his wedding(婚礼) day.

From about the year 1800 until World War Ⅱ, London was the biggest city in the world. But now there are many cities which are much bigger than it.    London is famous for many things. Tourists come from all over the world to visit its famous buildings and hear the famous clock, Big Ben.    Like many big cities, London has problems with traffic and pollution which stop the city from developing. Over one million(百万) people a day use the London underground, but there are still too many cars on the streets. The air isn't clear, but it is anyhow cleaner than it was 100 years ago.    For me, the best things about London are the parks. There are five in the city center. But my children's favourite place is Hamleys, the biggest toy shop in the world.1. What's the Chinese meaning of "underground" in the passage?A.隧道 B.地铁 C.地下 D.通道2.

There are no other children in the family for the child to talk to or play with. An only child is not able to get along well with children of his age. Some parents regretted (后悔) making the decision to have only one child.But the number of parents choosing to have only one child is increasing in many parts of the world. In the US, for example, more than 14 percent of women between 18 and 34 plan to have just one child. The same situation can be seen in the UK. In Japan, the average number of children born per family had gone down to 1. 42 by 1996.For some single-child parents, especially who are busy working every day, time and energy seem to be overwhelming. They don’t have enough time or energy to share with more children. For other people, money is their first consideration. Many couples in Japan choose not to have large families as the cost of supporting a child up to the age of 18 reaches around US $ 160, 000.1. According to the passage, why is a single child likely to be lonely?A. Because his parents don't love him.B. Because he doesn't have holidays.C.

Both A and B.四、任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）    Some bad habits are making you grow old fast. Cut down the following habits today for a more beautiful, healthier tomorrow.    ♦Waiting for your sadness to go away    Sadness isn't just uncomfortable; it also makes you become older fast. Take your mental(精神的) health as seriously as your physical health. If you've been fighting with your sadness for more than two weeks, be sure to find professional help. Paying no attention to your sadness or just waiting without doing anything can do harm to your mental health and make you older.    ♦Having a cigarette or two on weekends    If you smoke only when you are with your friends on weekends, can you keep away from the harmful effects of smoking? The answer is "No". Smoking can break down your skin's elasticity(弹性). Your smoking habit may even make your hair become gray. Changing your smoking habit is changing your life.    ♦Having a long to do list day after day    It's natural to have a to-do list in our "go, go, go" daily life. But if you're always running from one thing to the next, and caught in too much business, you are turning older fast, because your too long to-do list makes you tired and under lots of stress. Stress can cause heart disease, high blood pressure and other physical diseases. It can also cause mental health problems or make the problems worse and worse.1.请将文中画线句子翻译成汉语。________________________________________2. If you can't get out of your sadness, what should you do?________________________________________3. What are the harmful effects of smoking?________________________________________4.

But the large population has been a big problem. Because of the large population, we are short of energy and water. The traffic is much heavier in most big cities. Public places are much more crowded. People have fewer places to live in and it's difficult for many of them to find jobs.Although China is developing quickly and people's living conditions are improving greatly, we still have a long way to go.
