recycling. Recycling in the home is very important, of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.
The total amount of packaging has increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a
typical household&39;s waste in the UK. In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.
Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of it
for burying this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more
than they need. However, few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging
customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.
But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But it is also applied to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary.
There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realize just how much unnecessary
materials are collected. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb.
What does the underlined phrase "over-consumption" refer to?
A.Using too much packaging
B.Recycling too many wastes
C.Having more material than is needed
D.Making more products than necessary
The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show().A.the tendency of cutting household waste
B.the increase of packaging recycling
C.the fact of packaging overuse
D.the rapid growth of supermarkets
According to the text, recycling().A.means burning packaging for energy
B.helps control the greenhouse effect
C.is the solution to gas shortage
D.leads to a waste of land
What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.Needless material is mostly recycled
B.Fighting wastefulness is difficult.
C.People like collecting recyclable wastes.
D.The author is proud of their consumer culture
What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A.Unpackaged products are of bad quality
B.Supermarkets care more about packaging
C.Other products are better packaged than food
D.It is improper to judge quality by packaging

Students' Evaluation of Classroom Teaching
For the past two years, I have been working on students' evaluation of classroom teaching. I have kept a record of informal conversations(51)some 300 students from at least twenty--one colleges and universities. The students were generally(52)and direct in their comments(53)how course work could be better(54). Most of their remarks were kindly taken --with tolerance rather than bitterness--and frequently were softened by the(55) that the students were speaking(56)some, not all, instructors. Nevertheless,(57)the following suggestions and comments indicate, students feel dissatisfied with things--as--they --are in the classroom.
Professors should be(58)from reading lecture notes. "It makes their(59)monotonous(单调的)."
If they are going to read, why not(60)out copies of the lecture? Then we shouldn't need to go to class. Professors should(61)repeating in lectures material that is in the textbook."(62)we've read the material, we want to(63)it or hear it elaborated on, not repeated." "A lot of students hate to buy a(64)text that the professor has written(65)to have his lectures repeat it. '
A.counting
B.covering
C.figuring
D.involving
听力原文:M: Cindy, what is happiness in your mind?
W: Why ask? It's a difficult question. Different people may have different understandings of happiness.
M: You said it. But that is the assignment from my psychology professor.
W: Well, in my mind, happiness is supposed to be just a state of mind, not so closely related to material life.
M: OK. A state of mind. Anything else?
W: People ought to value what they already have got. They shouldn't always feel sorry for what they can't have.
M: Yes, I agree. But many people often get used to what they have and don't cherish them any more.
W: You are right. Maybe people can't be very happy by only staying at one place or staying still at one condition. I mean, if people get what they dream about, or they do better than they expected, they feel happy. And...
M: Hold it a second. I need to write what you have said down. Get what they dream about..., better than expected. All right. That's very helpful. Now, let's talk about what kind of specific things or condition that can make people feel happy. Take you for example.
W: Well, I said that I didn't mind material things a lot. But if I get some gifts very carefully chosen or made by my beloved relatives or friends, even though they may not be expensive, I would still be very happy.
M: So do I. Do you feel this kind of happiness lasts long?
W: Of course, whenever I take out the things and look at them, I know there are people who care about me and love me. My heart will be full of happiness.
Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
23. What is Cindy's opinion on happiness?
24. According to the man, why cannot some people feel much happiness?
25. What kind of gifts will make Cindy feel happy?
(20)
A.It's difficult to obtain happiness.
B.Happiness is only a state of mind.
C.Happiness is closely related to material life.
D.People shouldn't always ask what happiness is.

If you wish to become a better reader, here are four important points to remember about rate,
or speed, of reading:
1. Knowing why you are reading-what you are reading to find out-will often help you to
know whether to read rapidly or slowly.
2. Some things should be read slowly throughout. Examples are directions for making or doing something, arithmetic problems, science and history books, which are full of important information. You must read such things slowly to remember each important step and understand each important idea.
3. Some things should be read rapidly throughout. Examples are simple stories meant for en- joyment, news, letters from friends, items, or bits of news from local, or hometown, paper, tell-
ing what is happening to friends and neighbors.
4. In some of your readings, you must change your speed from fast to slow and then to fast, as you go along. You need to read certain pages rapidly and then slow down and do more careful readings when you come to important ideas which must be remembered.
72. According to the passage, your reading speed depends on_________.
[A] whether the reading material is easy or difficult
[B] what you are reading
[C] what your purpose in reading something is
[D]both B and C
