daughter. She was eight years older than he was. Their first child was a daughter. Later they had twins. In 1585,Shakespeare left his hometown, Stratford-upon-Avon. His wife and children stayed behind. No one knows why he left or what he did between 1585 and 1592.
At twenty-eight, he moved to London and joined a theatre company which opened the Globe Theatre in 1599.He became an actor, and he also wrote plays. He usually acted in his own plays. He made almost no money from his writing. But he made a lot of money from acting. With the money he bought a large house in his hometown.
At the age of forty-nine, Shakespeare retired(退休)and went to live in Stratford-upon-Avon. He died at the age of fifty-two in 1616. He left his money to his family. He left the genius(天才)to the world.

Do you still get free plastic bags from the supermarkets? Things have changed.
China has banned(禁止)free plastic bags at shops and supermarkets,and people have to pay for using plastic bags. The rule started on June 1, 2008. It came because our country tried to make litter less. Making super-thin(超薄)plastic bags has also been banned.
The Chinese once used about 3,000,000,000 plastic shopping bags a day,and they have caused pollution of the environment (环境污染). The bags have become a main cause of plastic pollution because they are easy to break and people throw them away here and there. So the Chinese people are encouraged to bring their own bags for shopping.
What kind of shopping bag is the best to bring? Some students in Chongqing have a good idea. They make their own shopping bags. They use old clothes to make cloth bags(布袋),and send them to their parents as presents. They also ask their parents and friends to use cloth bags instead of plastic ones. They think it is their duty to protect(保护)the environment.
4. People in China have to_______ now.
A. throw plastic bags here and there B. collect plastic bags in the street
C. pay for using plastic bags at shops and supermarkets X
D. use free plastic bags at shops and supermarkets
5. China made this rule because plastic bags were bad for the_______.
A. environment B. litter C. shops D. supermarkets
6. The Chinese people are encouraged to bring _______for shopping.

Each year there is an increasing number of cars on the roads and streets as millions of new cars and trucks are produced. One out of every six Americans works at putting together the parts of the cars, driving trucks,building roads,or filling car with gas. Americans won’t live without cars!
Most Americans would find it hard to think what life could look like without a car. However,some have realized the serious problem of the air pollution caused by the car. The polluted air becomes poisonous and dangerous to health.
One way to get rid of the polluted car is to design a car that does not pollute. That’s what several of the large car factories have been trying to do. But to build a clean car is easier said than done. Progress in this field has been slow.
Another way is to take the place of car engine (发动机)by something else. Inventors are now working on steam cars as well as electric cars. Many makers believe that it will take years to develop a practical model that pleases man.
To prevent the world from being polluted by car, we’ll have to make some changes. Americans,for example, have to cut down on the number of their total cars. They are encouraged to travel and to go to work by bicycle. Bicycling is thought to help keep the air clean.
But this change doesn’t come easily—a large number of workers may find themselves without jobs if a car factory closes down. Thus the problem of air pollution would become less important than that of unemployment.
Although cars have led us to a better life, they have also brought us new problems.
8.Some large car factories in the US are trying to build a new kind of car which _______.
A. is clean in itself B. is used to clean streets
C. is easier to make D. does not pollute the air
9.If the number of cars cuts down, the most serious problem to American workers is to _______.
A. have no work to do B. improve their environment
C. go to work by bike D .make their factories richer
10.The writer wants to tell us that_______ .
A. riding a bike is the only way out B. the number of cars must be cut down
C. people wouldn’t live without cars
D. cars bring us not only a better life but also serious problems
11.Which fact does the passage provide?
A. About one sixth of American workers are working in car factories.
B. The best way to get rid of air pollution is to change the car engine by something else.
C. It isn’t easy to change the way of life in the US.

D. In the US bikes will surely take the place of cars in the future.

Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon
understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back.
But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand 1 that and try to have balance in your life. How?
Don’t look down on your worth by comparing(对比)yourself, with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.
Don’t let other people set goals(目标)for you. Only you know what is best for yourself. Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying. Don’t be afraid of difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave. Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly (紧紧地);the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been,but also where you are going. Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is a treasure you can always carry easily.
Don’t use time or words carelessly. You can’t get them back. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery (秘密),and today is a gift; that’s why we call it “the present”. Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step.
12. The passage tells us not to because everyone is special.
A. be afraid of difficulties B. be afraid to learn
C. run through life so fast D. compare yourself with others to look down on your worth
13. The sentence “Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.” means that .
A. nothing is possible B. if we don’t give up,there is always hope
C. you should learn to give up D. although you try,nothing will change
14. Why can’t we use time carelessly? ______.
A. Because time is too expensive. B. Because time never returns.
C. Because we are too poor. D. Because time will get back.
15. If you run through life so fast, you will .
A. lose your own treasure that you can always carry easily
B. lose love by holding it too tightly
C. forget not only where you’re been, but also where you are going
D. not be afraid of the difficulties

Mistakes are great teachers
Mistakes are great teachers. Success comes to those who are willing to risk making mistakes to achieve their goals and wishes, and who are able to learn from those mistakes. And in order to learn from mistakes you must be willing to pay for them.
Mistakes can be very valuable, but when you try to get others to pay for your mistakes, then you lose the chance to learn from them. When something goes wrong, it’s usually very easy to find someone else’s mistakes, but is that useful ? Of course not.

Much of the value of mistakes comes from the fact that they need to cost that must be paid. The person who learns the most from a mistake is the one who pays the price for that mistake.
When you make a mistake, what you shouldn’t do is run away from it. You need to accept it because you can learn a lot from it. The mistake has been made, so make the most of it. Pay the price, learn the lesson, and grow that much stronger.
When you make a mistake, don’t look back at it long. Remember the reason for it, and then look forward. Mistakes are lessons of wisdom. The post cannot be changed. The present is still in your power. Make full use of your mistakes to achieve your goals and wishes.

Knowing about yourself means not only that you find out what you're good at and what you like,it also means that you d 1 what you're not good at and what you don't like.
