16、 make people feel terrible. The problems seem so big that its difficult to imagine how persons can do anything about them. Rebecca Hosking, however, thought differently. Rebecca is a wildlife camerawoman and she was filming a documentary for the BBC in the Pacific Ocean when she saw something that m
17、ade her cryquite a lot of dead birds that had died because they had eaten some plastics that is thrown into the sea each year. Beaches that used to be beautiful were covered with plastic toys, bottles, pensevery plastic thing you can think of. Rebecca decided she had to do something. Back home she t
18、hought about what she could do to help deal with the problem of throwaway plastics. In her hometown of Modbury, she asked local shop owners to stop using plastic bags in their shops. Plastic bags are used everywhere in the UK. The numbers are amazing. The UK uses nearly 17,000,000,000 plastic bags e
19、ach year. And the bags can take a very long time to break down because they are chemicals(化学物) rather than natural things, so each year the sea and the environment become more and more polluted. To Rebeccas surprise, the shop owners agreed and Modbury became the first plastic bag free town in the UK
20、. Instead, shops offered cotton bags or paper bags. Other towns around the UK followed Modburys example and are becoming plastic bag free. It wont deal with all of the worlds environment problems but it shows that there is something we can do and one person can make a big change with a strong enough
21、 decision.47. Rebecca cried one day when she .A. found the ocean was pollutedB. was thrown into the waterC. saw quite a lot of dead birdsD. was listening to BBC news48.

23、The Dead BirdsB. The Town of ModburyC. The Bag LadyD. The Plastic BagsB The brown bears at Helsinki s Korkeasaari Zoo received a particular treat, thanks to the generosity of a young boy. Twelve-year-old Otso Riiali donated 200 euros to the zoo to give the bears new climbing trees, without which he
24、thought they would be in danger. Otso, from the small town of Karjalohja west of Helsinki, says he saved up the money by selling 400 bottles of homemade berry juice with the help of his grandmother. It was hard work and my back hurt badly from all the bending in the forest while I was picking berrie
25、s. said Otso. A visit to the bear shelter a few years ago drove Otso to bring some cheer to the animals, which he said didnt seem energetic. Otso could have kept all he made by means of selling juice for himself, but he made a decision to give a part of it to help animals. Otso showed an unusual abi
26、lity to act. He did not stop at seeing what a bad situation the bears were in. Instead, he began to act in a practical way and made it. The zoo gladly accepted Otsos donation. However, bear caretaker Tiina Koivu mentioned that the bears foot-dragging(步履蹒跚) at the time of Otsos visit was caused by th
27、e summer heat. It happens that the name Otso is also an old Finnish(芬兰的) word for bear. I was born to be a bear lover. said Otso with a smile.51.

30、egs for some time, they will become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory(记忆) works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practi
31、ce by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault(过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his par
32、ents may be blamed(责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people cant read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write but they have to remember things. They cannot write them down in a small notebook. They h
33、ave to remember days, names, songs and stories, so their memory is being exercised the whole time. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering things in a way as other people do.55.

37、gsD. how to learn from the peopleD Too many people want to be their friends,but they dont give friendship back. That is why some friendship dont last long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good
38、 friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding. Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you havent been honest, you may lose friends trust. Go
39、od friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly. Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You do not have to give your lunch money or your clothes. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feeling. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your fr
40、iend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know better. Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and helping with a problem. Something may go wrong at school.
