The brush pen, ne f the “Fur Treasures f the Study”, was invented thusands f years ag. Hwever, the ldest pen was just a stick r a piece f bamb. It was difficult fr peple t write well n thin silk.
It is said that Meng Tian, a general f the Kingdm f Qin, imprved the pen. When Meng was leading an army t fight against the Kingdm f Chu, he had t reprt the situatin t his king in time. But his pen was t hard and caused him much truble, s he was thinking f ways t imprve it.
One day after hunting, Meng made his way hme with sme wild rabbits n the hrse back. Fat and heavy, ne rabbit’s tail left a lng trail (痕迹) n the grund when they mved n. Suddenly a gd idea came t his mind when he saw it, “If I tie the rabbit’s hair t a stick, wuld it be easy t write with?”
On arriving hme, he tied the rabbit’s hair t a stick and tried writing with it. But the rabbit’s hair was t smth t write well and wasted a lt f silk. Meng was s disappinted that he threw away his “inventin” int a stne hle in the yard.
Hwever, Meng never gave up and kept trying all the time. A few rainy days later, he happened t find his “inventin” fatter in a stne hle. He picked it up with hpe. The brush wrked beautifully n silk. It turned ut that the special water had cleaned the il frm the hair. Meng succeeded at last.
Thanks t Meng, the brush pen is playing a key rle in Chinese culture. Tday, students are taught t use the brush pens in schl. It makes their life mre clrful and helps them better understand Chinese Culture.

(C)
What des it mean t be green? Green is mre than just a clr. It als means taking special steps t prtect the envirnment. Buying a green prduct is a small step everyne can take. Deciding whether a prduct is green, hwever, isn’t always easy. We need t cnsider the whle life cycle f the prduct even after it’s f n use. Here is what we may keep in mind.
The materials f a prduct are usually ur first fcus (关注). What is it made f? Are there any harmful chemicals in it? Green prducts are made f mre natural materials which are free frm harmful chemicals, s they can be gd fr ur physical health.
Packaging (外包装) is imprtant. Hw is a prduct packaged? Is it ver packaged? We’d better chse glass, metal and paper packaging, as these can be reused r mre easily recycled. We can als lk fr less packaging r even chse unbagged prducts whenever pssible.
Lcatin (地点) matters. Where was a prduct prduced? Where are we buying it? Think abut hw much energy was used t get it t us. Try t chse lcal prducts. When it cmes t fd, it is a gd idea t rder directly frm lcal farmer, shp at markets and buy fruits in seasn. Buying frm stres near ur huses is als a gd chice, because we can g there withut driving a car.
Lk int what the cmpany tells us abut their prduct. It’s easy t say that a prduct is “green” r “all natural”, but the wrds may be t gd t be true. S, much f the infrmatin abut a prduct shuld be taken with a grain f salt. After all, cmpanies try t make us believe that their prducts are envirnmentally respnsible.
The greenest thing is certainly the ne we dn’t buy. Things like fd and clthing are necessary fr life. But many thers are nt. Better than buying is chsing t leave an unnecessary prduct in the stre and ding withut. It sends a message t the prducer, keeps mney in ur pckets, reduces (减少) waste and keeps the planet healthy.
48. The writer wuld suggest chsing a prduct that is ________.
A. ver packagedB. delivered frm abrad
C. lcally prducedD. made f unnatural materials
49. The underlined sentence “Much f the infrmatin abut a prduct shuld be taken with a grain f salt.” in Paragraph 5 prbably means “________”.
A. We can easily understand the infrmatin.
B. We shuldn’t cmpletely believe the infrmatin.
C. We shuld widely spread the infrmatin.
D. We shuldn’t quickly frget the infrmatin.
50. Hw des the writer rganize (组织) the six paragraphs?
A. B.
C. D.
51. Which f the fllwing wuld be the best title fr the passage?
A. Buying GreenB. Recycling Waste.
C. Keeping HealthyD. Reducing Energy Use
(D)
52. At ________, students are having a painting lessn.
A. 9:30 a.m.B. 11:35 a.m.C. 1:30 p.m.D. 2:15 p.m.

C. In ther wrdsD. At the same time
