Going green seems to be fad(时尚)for a lot of people these days. Whether that is good or bad, we can’t really say, but for the two of us, going green is not a fad but a lifestyle.
On April22, 2011, we decided to go green every single day for an entire year. This meant doing 365 different green things, and it also meant challenging ourselves to go green beyond easy things. Rather than recycle and reduce our energy, we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task.
With the idea of going green every single day for a year, Our Green Year started. My life and I decided to educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment. We wanted to push the message that every little bit helps.
Over the course of Our Green Year, we completely changed our lifestyle. We now shop at organic(有机的)stores. We consume less meat, choosing green food. We have greatly reduced our buying we don’t need. We have given away half of what we owned through websites. Our home is kept clean by vinegar and lemon juice, with no chemical cleaners. We make our own butter, enjoying the smell of home-made fresh bread. In our home office anyone caught doing something ungreen might be punished.
Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year. We are grateful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others. We believe that we do have the power to change things and help our planet.
1.What might be the best title for the passage?
A. Going Green. B. Protecting the Planet.
C. Keeping Open-Minded D. Celebrating Our Green Year.

A. they were expected to follow the green fad
B. they didn’t know how to educate other people
C. they were unwilling to reduce their energy
D. they needed to perform unusual green tasks
3. What did the couple do over the course of Our Green Year?
A. They tried to get out of their ungreen habits.
B. They ignore others’ ungreen behavior.

C. Some people disagree with the couple’s green ideas.
D. Our Green Year is becoming a national campaign.

For centuries people dreamed of going into space. This dream began to seem possible when high-flying rockets were built in the early 1900s.
In 1903 a Russian teacher named Konstantin Tsiolkovsky figured out how to use rockets for space travel. His plan was the first one in rocket science to use correct scientific calculation. About 30 years later, a U.S. scientist named Robert Goddard built the first rockets that could reach high altitudes. During World War II, German scientists built large rockets that could travel very far and carry dangerous explosives. After the war, scientists from Germany went to the United States and the Soviet Union to help those countries build space rockets.
These two countries were soon racing to get to space first. Each of these countries wanted to prove that it was stronger and more advanced than the other one. Both countries also had powerful bombs. People in the United States were worried when the Soviets were first to launch a space satellite, which was called Sputnik. The Soviets were also first to send a person into space. Yury Gagarin orbited the earth in the Vostok I spaceship in 1961.
The US government set a goal for its space program to be the first country to put a person on the Moon. The U.S. space program built a series of Apollo spaceship. These vehicles were powered by huge Saturn 5 rockets. In 1969 Apollo II took three men to the moon successfully. Nell Armstrong became the first person to walk on the Moon.
The Soviets may have lost the race to fly people to the Moon, but they built the first space station in 1971. The United States also built a space station. The space stations allowed people to live and work in space. Then the Soviet Union and the United States cooperated to hook two spaceships together in space. This action ended the "space race". Today a much larger space station, built by several countries together, orbits Earth.
Another new way to go to space is by space shuttle. A space shuttle, first made in the United States in 1981, looks like an airplane. Astronauts who fly spaceships have used shuttles to help put satellites into space.

高一英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析
There's a lot of discussion these days about healthy kids. People who care (parents, doctors, teachers, and others) want to know how to help kids be more healthy.
Being healthy is a way of saying a person eats well, gets a lot of physical activity (exercise), and has a healthy weight. If you're healthy, your body works well, feels good, and can do all the things you want to do. Here are five rules to live by, if you're a kid who wants to be healthy.
Eat a Variety of Foods, Especially Fruits and Vegetables. You may have a favorite food, but the best choice is to eat a variety. If you eat different foods, you're more likely to get the nutrients(营养) your body needs. Taste new foods and old ones you haven't tried for a while. Get at least five servings of fruits and vegetables a day — two fruits and three vegetables.
Drink Water and Milk Most Often. When you're really thirsty, cold water is the No. 1 for you. Kids need calcium(钙)to build strong bones, and milk is a great source of this mineral. How much do kids need? Aim for 3 cups of milk per day. You can mix it up by having milk and some other calcium-rich dairy foods .
Be Active.One job you have as a kid — and it's a fun one — is that you get to figure out which activities you like best. Not everyone loves baseball or soccer. Ask your parents to help you do your favorite activities regularly. Find ways to be active every day. You might even write down a list of fun stuff to do, so you can refer to it when your mom or dad says it's time to stop watching TV or playing computer games!
1. What’s the best title for this passage?
A. Do Your Favorite Activities Regularly B. Eat More Fruits and Vegetables Every Day
C. Drink Water and Milk When You Are Thirsty D. Tips on How to Keep Healthy
2. Which of the following can’t show a kid is healthy?
A. Eating well B. Having too much sleep
C. Having a healthy weight D. Getting a lot of physical exercise
3. The best way to get enough nutrients for your body is ________.
A. to drink milk every day B. to eat what you haven’t eaten before
C. to eat all kinds of foods D. to eat fruits and vegetables instead of grains
4.The underlined words “this material” in the fourth paragraph refer to _________.
A. calcium B. calcium-rich dairy food C. milk D. nutrients

These days, it seems, the sports pages have come to read like the police news. The fan looking for game scores must first read news stories about drug use among athletes and reports of other serious crimes. “What’s going on here?” sports fans ask. What’s happening to our heroes?
It is not difficult to understand our desire for athletes to be heroes. On the surface, at least, athletes show many of the classical qualities of heroes. And sports allow us to see acts that can truly be described as courageous, exciting, beautiful, and even noble. In an ever-changing world, sports is still an area in which we can regularly experience a certain kind of greatness.
Yet there’s something strange here. The qualities a society looks for in its heroes—selflessness and social awareness—are exactly the opposite of those needed to become a successful athlete. Becoming a star athlete requires extreme self-absorption, extraordinary physical skills, and a very competitive personality. These qualities may make a great athlete, but they don’t necessarily make a great person. Moreover, our society strengthen these qualities with the system it has created to produce athletes—a system that gives athletes the sense they are stars who can do whatever they want.
Young athletes learn that success, rather than hard work and honest play, is what brings rewards. And for those successful enough to rise to big-time college sports, the “reward” is often an artificially controlled social environment that frees them from many of the responsibilities other students face. Coaches—whose own jobs depend on maintaining(保持)winning sports programs—watch over their athletes to make sure that nothing affects their ability to compete. If an athlete gets into trouble with the police, for instance, the coach will probably try to take care of things. In some schools, athletes don’t even choose their own classes or buy their own books; the coach does it all.
Given this situation, it’s not too surprising that many young American athletes seem to think of themselves as special or even privileged(有特权的)people, and it grows worse the longer they participate in athletics. Universities take care of their every need. Communities look to them as heroes. The public thinks of them as stars. They’re paid huge amounts of money. And they begin to think they deserve it all.
Needless to say, not all athletes are like this. There are plenty of athletes who want to help others. After retiring from football, Alan Page became a successful lawyer and built the Page Education Foundation, which helps young people around the country pay for college. Thankfully, there will always be some true heroes to be found among professional athletes.
Still, it’s probably ________ for society to look to athletes for its heroes—any more than to look to actors or lawyers. The social role played by athletes is indeed important, but it’s different from that of heroes.
1.What is discussed in Paragraph 2?
A. The great pleasure that sports give to fans.
B. The different roles that athletes play in life.
C. The change that sports bring to the whole world.
D. The qualities that athletes show during competition.
2.It can be learned from the passage that ________.
A. the qualities that make a great athlete can also make a hero
B. young athletes believe they deserve to be paid a lot of money
C. few athletes see it as their social responsibility to help others
D. the public believes successful athletes should have special rights
3.Which of the following words best fills in the blank in the last paragraph?
A. wrong B. reasonable
C. unusual D. necessary
4.The main purpose of the passage is to ________.
A. encourage more young athletes to achieve success
B. warn athletes not to get involved in serious crimes
C. persuade people not to depend on athletes as heroes
D. advise coaches to develop athletes’ ability to compete
