阅读理解

    When we think of paper, we think of newspapers and books. But there are many other uses. Only half of the world's paper is used for books and newspapers.

    Paper is very good for keeping you warm. You have perhaps seen homeless men sleep on a large number of newspapers. In Finland, it is sometimes-40℃ in winter. The farmers wear paper boots(靴子)in the snow. Nothing could be warmer.

    Each year, more and more things are made of paper. We have had paper cups and plates for a long time. But now we hear that chairs, tables, and even beds can be made of paper. Besides paper boots and shoes, you can wear paper hats, paper dresses, and paper raincoats. When you have used them once, you may throw them away and buy new ones.

    The latest use of paper seems to be paper houses. These are not small houses for children to play in, but real, big houses for people to live in. You can buy a house with three rooms for about 500 dollars. You can put it up by yourself in a few hours, and you can use it for about five years.

A、print(印刷)newspapers and books B、help the homeless people C、make chairs, tables and beds

Imagine a fantastic fan that operates without traditional blades(扇叶), a smart pizza box that can turn into convenient plates, and a beautiful garden growing on a wall. Let's explore these cool inventions!

A Safer Electric Fan

Over 130 years ago, the electric fan with blades was invented. Now, Dyson has created a new type of fan without blades. This fan is safer and easy to clean. It marks a huge improvement in fan technology.

An Environment-friendly Pizza Box

The green box is a special pizza box that can be used again. It reduces waste. The top half of the box divides into four plates. People don't need extra(额外的)paper plates. The bottom of the box can be folded in half and used to hold remains.

William Walsh invented the green box. His friends often ate pizza, but they never used plates. One day, a friend spilled(溢出)hot cheese on his shirt. Walsh used a piece of the box as a plate.

A Living Wall

How does your garden grow? Gardens by Patrick climb the walls. They are called straight gardens. The gardens grow on buildings around the world. One of these gardens, with around 260 plant types, is growing on a hotel in London, England. What's special is that the plants don't grow in soil. Their roots are connected to a type of cloth. Water is passed through the cloth to keep them healthy.

Honolulu is the capital and largest city of the US state of Hawaii, which is located in the Pacific Ocean. It is along the southeast coast of the island of Oahu, and is the westernmost and southernmost major US city. It is a centre of international business, hospitality, and military defense in both the state and Oceania. The city has a mix of various Asian, Western, and Pacific cultures. 

Temperatures change little throughout the months, with average(平均的) high temperatures of 27 — 32℃ and average lows of 18 — 24℃ throughout the year. Honolulu has an average of 278 sunny days and 89. 4 rainy days per year. The average rainfall is about 16 inches per year, which mainly takes place during the winter months of October through early April, with very little rainfall during the summer. However, both seasons experience a similar number of rainy days. Light showers happen in summer, while heavier rainfalls happen during winter. 

As the largest city and airport location in the Hawaiian Islands, Honolulu acts as a natural gateway to the islands' large tourism industry, which brings $10 billion and has the greatest influence on the local economy(经济) every year. Honolulu's location in the Pacific also makes it a large business and trading centre. Other important part of the city's income(收入) includes military defense, research and development, and manufacturing. 

Sunny beaches and a sky-blue sea coast make Honolulu a best place for holiday. Honolulu is not only a place of beautiful sights, but also a wonderful place of shopping. The world's largest open-air shopping centre, Ala Moana Centre with many international products is located here. However, it might take tourists lots of time to get there because of the traffic jam and the lack of subway system in Honolulu. Except for that, it is still worth visiting. 

 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

Which would you give a boy for his birthday, a toy truck or a doll? If you choose the truck, well,you're not alone. Most people think that some toys are for boys and some are for girls. We might pick building toys or remote-control cars for boys and kitchen toys or dolls for girls. But why do we do this?Are boys and girls really born with different interests in toys?

No, they are not. Children start to show different interests in toys at age three, but only because at this time, they begin to learn about gender(性别) and to follow what others of their gender do. If you give a girl kitchen toys, she will think they are girls' toys because she sees other girls playing with them. But if you give a girl a toy car and show her a group of girls who are playing with cars, she'll play with the toy car and think it is a girls' toy. This "watch and follow" habit often becomes a rule for both boys and girls in choosing the "right" toys.

However, this rule can be bad for children. Different toys teach children different things. Dolls help with their early language use, and building toys are good for learning math and science. By playing with different toys, children can find out what they are interested in or what they are good at.

If they only play one kind of toy, they may lose this important chance. They may also get a wrong idea about what boys or girls are able to do. Some doctors worry that children may use the same kind of thinking when they look for jobs in the future. If they do, they may miss something more important than just getting a chance to play with different toys. They may miss many, perhaps better, chances in life.
