My parents were making a big noise as they sorted (分类) bottles and cans out on the balcony. I winced (皱起眉头) at the noise. I called my 36 in Chinese, “How many do you have this time?” “Eight hundred and six pieces, that’s $40.30!” she answered. I’d been living in my Los Angeles flat for over four years when my parents came for a six-month visit from China. I’d seldom noticed that the bottles and cans they’d collected on the road were worth 5 cents (美分) each. When their stay with us ended, I felt free, though I was a supporter of environmental 37 in fact.
By the time my daughter began school, I was expected to raise money for the school. I felt very stressed(有压力的). How could I work out the problem? 38 , a good idea came across my mind: how about uniting (结合) the two — environmental education and raise money? I joined an organization called LACES. It had 39 1, 600 students, parents and teachers. If my two elderly parents could raise $300 in six months from recycling (回收), why couldn’t we multiply (乘以) that number by at least 800? My team organized a day for students and parents to bring bottles and cans directly to school. We 40 it the Green for Green program. The first one raised only $145. But we planned more programs. With each one, the numbers started to look 41 : $145… $400 … $481. The more success we had, the more people 42 our team.
Today, LACES teachers keep boxes in their classrooms for bottles and cans. Students collect recyclables and keep them in boxes. Parents collect at their offices. LACES parents have told me that where they used to see litter, they see 43 . Since the LACES Green for Green program started in 2011, we have raised $15, 500 for the school and recycled about 75, 000 pounds of waste.
I believe that the others in the community 44 our effort(努力), and that the result is

multiplied. I used to 45 my parents’ recycling project during their visit here. Now I laugh at myself for getting the benefit (益处) from their clever ideas. They may never influence(影响)anyone beyond(超出) their family. However, their small effort has led to big change, one that inspires (激励) family, friends, children, and even strangers. 36. A. wife B. mother C. daughter D. father 37. A. project B. plan C. subject D. education 38. A. Quickly B. Suddenly C. Luckily D. Sadly 39. A. worse than B. less than C. better than D. more than 40. A. told B. called C. said D. spoke 41. A. higher B. brighter C. stronger D. wider 42. A. left B. knew C. loved D. joined 43. A. money B. bottles C. waste D. cans 44. A. expect B. follow C. achieve D. control 45. A. agree with B. discuss C. cry at D. laugh at 四、阅读理解（每小题1分，共15分）

Have you ever seen a car without a driver? It sounds crazy, but these computer-driven driverless cars will soon be filling roads near you. Companies like Google and Tesla have been designing and testing these cars, and the technology is there.
4
So how? The cars have sensors(感应器) all around which can find other cars and objects in the road. Road signs are read by cameras, and satellite navigation systems(卫星导航系统) are used so the car knows how to get where you want to go. All you have to do is type in the address! Finally, a central computer system takes in all the information that it receives from the sensors and cameras and works out when to speed up, stop and turn.
Sound like your idea of heaven(天堂)? Sitting back, looking out of the windows and even watching a film or reading a book while ‘driving’ would be possible with this new technology. You wouldn't have to worry about remembering directions to where you're going. In addition, computers would also drive more safely than people—they would obey the rules and have quicker action times when in dangerous situations.
However, there are many drawbacks of driverless cars. Computers would have difficulties making ethical (道德的) decisions: If a child ran into the road, would the computer choose to hit the child or turn suddenly and potentially kill the car's passengers? Moreover, I personally find driving fun—I'd miss never driving a car myself. There would also be many other decisions to be made—should children, or drunk people, be allowed in a driverless car by themselves? Or would there need to be a person with a driving license in the car at all times?
I'm not certain I'd want a driverless car—but it's only a matter of time before they'll become more affordable and popular on our roads.
49When using a driverless car, you need only ________．
A.read the road signs carefully B.put the address into the computer C.check the cameras D.remember the directions
50.The third paragraph mainly tells us about the ________ of driverless cars. A.instructions B.standards C.tests D.advantages
51.The underlined word “potentially” in Paragraph 4 means ________． A.naturally B.successfully C.especially D.possibly 52.What's the writer's opinion about future driverless cars? A.They'll cause more accidents. B.They'll be less expensive. C.They'll use less energy. D.They'll run much faster.
C
You eat to stay fit and keep your body working, right? Then reading is food for your mind and soul. Reading informs you of what’s happening around. Reading encourages you to think and imagine, think out of the box and imagine the impossible.
In the past, people just read books, only books. Today, we have books online, which makes reading easy. The web, our new storehouse of information is just a click away. But this in no way has stolen the magic of reading books ,the sound of their pages’ flutter（翻页） and their smell…….You can lie in bed with a book, but with a computer you possibly can’t. No matter how you read, reading is important.
Remember those bedtime stories? We read fun facts about animals, plants and the universe. We ask“whys” and “hows”. In books, we find their answers. Children who are introduced to reading at an early age are seen to have a better understanding of phonics (语音学). They master language skills easily, have a richer vocabulary and have greater reading abilities. Children, who grow up reading good books, mostly stand out. The way they think and act is very different from those who have never been introduced to reading. Reading not only adds to their knowledge but also shapes their personalities. Reading has a great influence on one’s life. Teenagers are easily influenced by whatever they read. If inspirational stories and life experiences are read in one’s teens, they can change a person for the better. They stay with him and keep encouraging him to achieve his goals and choose the right against the wrong.
