As soon as Mike entered my room, my room began to become 40 . To my anger, he often left his unwashed clothes everywhere!

One evening, I was doing my homework on my computer while Mike was listening to music. Later, I left my 41to get some water. A shock was  42me when I returned. He had used my computer to play games. I had  43  to save the homework. Sadly, he closed the program 44 saving it--- all my effort had disappeared! I shouted at him at the top of my  45 . He cried a lot as my mother 46  him. My mother also asked him to leave my room 47  .

Then I did my homework once again. At 11:00PM, I 48 it. I was about to turn off my computer when I saw the 49 of my brother that he had put on my table. I looked at his lovely face and remembered how he was crying when my mom punished him. I really felt 50 for him.

I went to him. He was 51 in my parents’ bed. I kissed his forehead. He woke up, 52and said, “I’m sorry, I won’t bring you 53 again.”

I was so 54 and I hugged him, saying, “From now on, my room is not only 55 . It is ours!”

If you live in the U.S., you’re probably used to throwing banana peel into the trash. But people in other countries, including India, have been taking advantages of their nutritional benefits for many years.

While the flesh of a banana is soft and sweet, the skin is thick, hard and slightly bitter. To eat the peel, you can fry, bake, or boil it for at least 10 minutes. Also, the riper bananas get, the thinner and sweeter banana peel will become. That’s because of a natural plant hormone(激素) called ethylene(乙烯) that fruits release as they ripen. Ethylene interacts with the sugars and fiber in the banana skin, changing complex sugars into simple sugars and breaking down pectin, a form of fiber in bananas that keeps them stiff. That’s why the older your banana is, the flimsier(不结实的) it feels.

The sweet flesh of a medium-sized banana contains great percentages of your daily recommended intake of various nutrients, such as:

·12% of your daily fiber, which helps with digestion and may help lower your risk of diabetes(糖尿病)

·17% of your vitamin C, which is important for your immune system as well as your growth

·20% of your vitamin B6, which aids the body’s ability to turn food into energy

·12% of your potassium, which helps with the development of cells, tissues, and organs throughout the body

If you eat the skin along with the flesh, you will get an even bigger increase in these same nutrients.

Eating the peel is not only good for your body but also better for the earth. The average American ate 11.4 pounds of bananas in 2014. Since a medium-sized banana weighs about 0.3 pounds, that equates to about 38 bananas per person, or about 12 billion for the whole of the U.S. And since most of us throw away the peel, that also means a lot of organic waste.

1.We can learn from the text that in the U.S. people ________.

A. like eating bananas

B. waste a lot of food every year

C. don’t make good use of banana peel

D. know little about the value of the flesh of bananas

2.What’s the role of ethylene in bananas?

A. Helping bananas grow faster.

B. Making banana peel stay strong.

C. Keeping banana flesh from going bad.

D. Helping to soften and sweeten banana peel.

3.Which of the following helps humans digest?

A. Vitamin C.        B. Potassium.        C. Vitamin B6.        D. Fiber.

4.The last paragraph mainly shows that eating banana peel benefits our ________.

A. diet                B. economy            C. environment        D. physical health

My kids sit in Gee's living room and excitedly lit old New Year decorations out of a well-loved cardboard box. She tells me that she and Tom built their decoration collection piece by piece during each year's after-New Year sale. She smiles as we leave with the box

We first met Tom and Gee in the early days of our marriage, someone had been returning our garbage cans to the garage each garbage day, and Jim and I had wondered who. Then one day we spotted him: an elderly man who lived across the street.

I baked cookies and left them on a bench outside the garbage with a thank-you note. When we got home from work that day, a typed letter had replaced the gift. The letter was from Tom and explained how he had come to walk the neighborhood on garbage day, retuning cans for people he barely knew. Back where he'd been fighting a war, his young wife, Gee, had found herself living alone. Neighbors had taken the time to handle her garbage cans so she didn't have to, and he never forgot. Now he paid it forward by doing the same for all of us. Unfortunately a few years after we'd moved in, Tom died.

These days, we're piling up boxes of our own. We're planning a move. The house that seemed so huge six years ago is filled to capacity with furniture and books and toys and, of course, people, We know it's time to go, and yet we can't seem to stick the For Sale sign up on the grassland. Gaining a third bedroom and maybe an office sometimes seems like a lousy trade for all we stand to lose.

It's not just Gee and Tom. It’s the man who lets our kids pick peaches of the tree in his front yard. It's the ladies who call Jim when their pool filter breaks and leave overflowing baskets for our kids on Easter. It's the officer who smiles and waves and makes me feel a little safer when Jim is away. It is they who teach us what it means to be a neighbor.

1.What do we know about the New Year decorations according to paragraph 1?

A.The kids don't like them.

B.Gee is willing to give them to us.

C.Gee sees them as useless now.　 ,

D.Gee and Tom made them by themselves.

2.How did the author get to know Tom?

A.Tom lived across the street.

B.Tom liked the cookies the author baked.

C.Tom returned the garbage cans for the author.

D.Tom shared their decorations with the author.

3.Tom decided to help his neighbors because

A.they had just moved into the community

B.he had been saved by a neighbor during the war

C.his wife had been helped by the neighbors during his absence

D.there were so many garbage cans in the neighborhood at that time

4.What can we infer from the underlined sentence?

A.Their house couldn't be sold at a high price

B.The author didn't want to leave their neighbors

C.The author's family was in bad need of a third bedroom

D.Their moving out would be a great loss for the neighbors
