The holiday season is often called the "giving season". People give gifts and have celebrations. However，this can lead to a lot of waste. Experts recently gave some ways to reduce the amount of waste.

Gift wrap

You can use reusable bags for gifts. You can also wrap gifts in old maps and pages from magazines. You could also wrap a gift in a colorful scarf or tablecloth. This makes the wrapping cloth part of the gift itself.

Holiday cards

For many people，sending holiday cards is a tradition. However，now many people use electronic cards. People are more accepting of electronic holiday cards and get just as much joy out of it.

Decorations

For decorating the home，natural plants can be used to make a room beautiful and smell nice! And one expert suggests using old holiday cards as decorations. Experts also suggest using newer energy﹣saving lights.

The tree

If people want a Christmas tree，the question is often fake or real.

"The greener choice would be buying a real Christmas tree from a local farm." says Ozawa， "New ones are replanted every year." In the US，many cities and towns deal with the holiday trees into a usable product，like small wood pieces for the garden. If you do buy a fake tree，plan to use it for many years.

Tableware

When having a celebration，avoid single-use plastics. Use more environmentally﹣friendly options，like regular plates and cups.

Knowing that Mrs. Mallard suffered from a heart trouble，great care was taken to tell her as gently as possible the news of her husband's death.

It was her sister Josephine who told her，in broken sentences. Her husband's friend Richards was there，too. He had been in the newspaper office when news of the railroad disaster was received，with Brently Mallard's name leading the list of "killed". He had only taken the time to make sure of its truth by a second telegram，and hurried to send the sad message.

She did not hear the story as many women have heard the same. She wept at once，with wild abandonment （抛弃），in her sister's arms. When the storm of sadness had spent itself she went away to her room alone.

There stood，facing the open window，a comfortable armchair. Into this she sank，tired from a physical exhaustion that held her body and seemed to reach into her soul.

She could see in the open square before her house the tops of trees that were all aquiver （颤抖的，兴奋的） with the new spring life. The delicious breath of rain was in the air. The notes of a distant song which someone was singing reached her，and countless sparrows were twittering in the eaves （屋檐）.

There was something coming to her and she was waiting for it，fearfully. What was it? It was too hard to name. But she felt it, coming out of the sky, reaching toward her through the sounds, the smells, the color that filled the air.

Now her chest rose and fell violently. She was beginning to recognize this thing that was approaching to possess her，and     . When she gave up trying，a little whispered word escaped her lips. She said it over and over under the breath："free，free，free!"

She did not stop to ask if it was extreme joy that held her. She knew that she would weep again when she saw the kind，gentle hands folded in death；the face that had never looked at her except with love，gray and dead. But she saw beyond that bitter moment many years to come that would belong to her absolutely. And she opened and spread her arms out to them in welcome.

There would be no one to live for during those coming years；she would live for herself. There would be no powerful will against hers.

And yet she had loved him—sometimes. What did it matter! What could love count for in the face of her new freedom.

"Free! Body and soul free!" she kept whispering.

Josephine was kneeling before the closed door with her lips to the keyhole. "Louise，open the door! I beg；open the door—you will make yourself ill."

"Go away. I am not making myself ill."

Her fancy （幻想） was running wild along those days ahead of her，all sorts of days that would be her own. She breathed a quick prayer that life might be long. It was only yesterday she had thought with a shake that life might be long.

She stood up after a long time and opened the door to her sister's begging. She carried herself unknowingly like a goddess of Victory. She held her sister's waist，and together they walked down the stairs.

Someone was opening the front door with a key，It was Brently Mallard who entered，a little travel﹣stained （风尘仆仆的），calmly carrying his suitcase and umbrella. He had been far from the scene of the accident，and did not even know there had been one，He stood amazed at Josephine's sharp cry；at Richards' quick motion to screen him from the view of his wife.

When the doctors came，they said she had died of heart disease—of the joy that kills.

（32）What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 7 indicate?

A．Mrs. Mallard decided to fight back when her husband beat her.

B．Mrs. Mallard was trying hard to fight against her heart trouble.

C．Mrs. Mallard was struggling with the guilty feeling of happiness.

D．Mrs. Mallard was extremely sad because of her husband's death.

（33）What can we infer about Mr. Mallard?

A．He was killed in a railroad disaster. B．He survived the railroad accident.

C．He was unaware of what was going on. D．He hurried back to comfort his wife.

（34）What can we learn from Paragraph 14 "Her fancy…. Might be long"?

A．Mrs. Mallard was more afraid of her future life.

B．Mrs. Mallard missed her husband very much.

C．Mrs. Mallard always thought life was hopeful.

D．Mrs. Mallard used to think life was hopeless.

（35）What really killed Mrs. Mallard?

A．The joy of seeing her husband coming back alive.

B．The shock of losing her coming freedom.

C．The fear of seeing the ghost of her husband.

D．The sadness of losing her husband suddenly.

What do you do when you come across problem while doing your homework？Andy would take out his smart phone，open a special app and searched the problem. Answers soon came out on the screen.

Nowadays，many students do homework with the help of the Internet. They search for information online，use apps or discuss through social networks like QQ and WeChat.

"It's convenient，" Andy said， "You also learn by seeing how others work them out."

"It also improves students' abilities，" said John，another student. He said it's true for new types of homework.

John's Chinese teacher often asks students to give speeches on great authors. When it comes to John's turn，he usually searches online，picks out certain stories and makes PowerPoint presentations.

"I've become skilled at finding information online and using Microsoft Office，" Wang said.

However，many students think this trend（趋势） also brings up problems. Some students just copy the answers online and don't think twice about them. As a result，they become lazy.

A head teacher in Andy and John's school said that knowing how to use the Internet is important. The key is to have good self﹣control.

"No matter how difficult the problem is，think about it independently （独立地） first，" the teacher said. "Be sure to understand the reasons behind the answers，or you won't make progress. If you don't have confidence about your self﹣control，ask your parents for help."
