A man often traveled around and he couldn’t buy the seat tickets on the train for his most tours.But he could always find a seat to sit on. His workmates asked him how he could find the seats by accident. “The method is very simple,just your patience.”smiled the man. His workmates were puzzled.
One day, one of his workmates was on business with him.The train car was so crowed that they couldn’t even find a place to stand on. “Let’s find seats to sit on,” said the man. “Find seats? Just a joke?” said his workmate.”Just follow me,” said the man.
They pushed their way through the crowds.The workmate wanted to give up , but the man insisted (坚持). At last,in the 7th car they found two empty seats .They sat there happily at once. The workmate asked,“How do you know there are seats here?”The man answered ,“I didn’t know it at all.But I know most of the passengers are easily cheated by one or two cars of crowed phenomena（现象）. Even though they know there are seats, they don’t want to crowd among the groups.They think it’s not worth doing that.”
The method seemed not to be clever enough,but it works. For us, patience will let us have a “seat ticket”life forever.

Our factories and homes burn coal and oil. Every year we have forest fires somewhere. Many scientists believe that the weather is changing.
The earth will perhaps be warmed by about 7℃ at the South Pole(极) and the North Pole. The ice will be melt(融化). The sea level(平面) will rise by about 7 meters. As a result, water will cover cities like London, Tokyo and New York. Some ports(港口) and towns along the coasts will disappear under water.
Some other scientists think that the dust, smoke and pollution from coal, wood and oil fires will block out(封闭) the ultraviolet rays(紫外线). Then the earth will become colder and great sheets of ice will cover Europe and North America.
When chemicals in the air mix with rain, we have acid(酸) rain. Acid rain can bring us great harm. It destroys(破坏) forests and kills life in lakes and rivers.
People are beginning to see how serious the problem is. They find it important to work with nature instead of against it. They are trying to save the earth in many different ways. But one of the most important things to do is to make people understand that saving the earth is saving ourselves.

On May 23, Shenzhen introduced tough new rules in order to discourage the “Chinese style of crossing the road”. “Chinese people cross roads without thinking about traffic lights, so long as they are part of a crowd,” said a post on Sina Weibo.
A CCTV news program showed that in only an hour, more than 600 people jumped red lights when crossing a road in Shijiazhuang, Hebei.
Many people say that they jaywalk (乱穿马路) because the red light lasts too long. Such an opinion is supported by a research team at Tongji University. The team did research on people’s waiting times at different road crossings for three years. They found that Chinese people would wait for 70 to 90 seconds before they lost their patience. “People are likely to ignore (忽视) the light when the waiting time is longer than they can bear,” said Ni Ying, a member of the research team.
However, a survey on Sina Weibo suggested that people jaywalk mainly because they ignore rules. “I always obey traffic rules. Time is important but safety should come first,” someone wrote on his Weibo.
Many countries give out punishments to jaywalkers. In Singapore, the maximum can be three months in prison. Some Chinese cities have started taking some actions, too. For example, the first three people in a jaywalking group will be fined 50 yuan in Shijiazhuang.
But calling on people to respect rules is more important. To completely solve the problem, everyone should realize the importance of obeying the traffic rules.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案，并将其标号填入题前括号内。
56. Which of the following is the “Chinese style road crossing”?
A. To cross a road slowly.
B. To follow the basic traffic rules.
C. To wait for the traffic light to turn green.
D. To cross roads without looking at traffic lights.
57. What does the phrase “the team” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. A CCTV news program. B. A research group at Tongji University.
C. A post on Sina Weibo. D. A daily newspaper.
58. How long will Chinese people wait for to cross the road before they lose patience?
A. About five minutes. B. Less than one minute.
C. Less than one and a half minutes. D. More than ten minutes.
59. Why do people jaywalk according to the survey on SinaWeibo?
A. Because people don’t pay much attention to rules.
B. Because there are too many people on the road.
C. Because the red light lasts too long.
D. Because people have less patience.
60. The writer suggests that we should __________ to solve the problem of jaywalking.
A. punish the jaywalkers B. reduce (减少) the time of red lights
C. ignore the traffic rules D. call on people to obey the traffic rules
D
Imagine one day, 61. You have to buy water from shops. And still there isn’t enough for everyone. Your mother has to save the family’s shower water to do other things. Would you be able to stand that kind of life?
Probably not. 62 Experts said Yemen is going to be the first country in the world to run out of
water. According to a report, the capital, Sanaa, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025.
63 the government often cuts the water supply. Hannan, an 18-year-old from Lahej, told the Times: “In a good week we’ll have a water supply all week. But then the following week there will be water only for a day or two.”
Hannan said only rich people have enough water to use. They can buy water from the shops or from the water truck. 64. They travel around the city every day to sell water – at very high prices.
“A lot of people can’t afford it,” she said.
The average person in Yemen uses 100 to 200 cubic meters of water per year. That is far below the international water poverty line of 1,000 cubic meters.
65 But it will cost a lot and it may not happen soon enough to help the people of Yemen.
根据材料内容，从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项，使短文意思通顺、内容完整，并将其标号填入下面题号后的横线上。
A. Because of the shortage.
B.the water taps in your house stop running.
C.But that’s what kids in Yemen are experiencing.
D.Private companies own the trucks.
E.The government is thinking of making use of seawater.
