I loved it，wore it for years，and havent had another one since it stopped ticking a decade ago. Why? Because I dont need one. I have a mobile phone and Im always near someone with an iPod or something like that. Al these devices(装置)tell the timewhich is why, if you look around，youl see lots of empty wrists；sales of watches to young adults have been going down since . But while the wise have realized that they dont need them，othersapparently including some distinguished men of our timeare spending total fortunes on them. Brands such as Rolex，Patek Philippe and Breitling command shocking prices，up to 250，000 for a piece. This is ridiculous. Expensive cars go faster than cheap cars. Expensive clothes hang better than cheap clothes. But these days al watches tell the time as well as al other watches. Expensive watches come with extra functionsbut who needs them? How often do you dive to 300 metres into the sea or need to find your direction in the area around the South Pole? So Why pay that much of five yearsschool fees for watches that allow you to do these things? If justice were done，the Swiss watch industry should have closed down when the Japanese discovered how to make accurate watches for a fivepound note. Instead the Swiss reinvented the watch，with the aid of millions of poundsworth of advertising，as a message about the man wearing it. Rolexes are for those who spend their weekends climbing icy mountains；a Patek Pmlippe iS for one from a rich or noble family；a Breitling suggests you like to pilot planes across the world. Watches are now classified as“investments(投资).A 1994 Patek Philippe recently sold for nearly350，000，while 1960s Rolexes have gone from 15，000 to 30,000 plus in a year. But a watch is not an investment. ItS a toy for self-satisfaction，a matter of fashion. Prices may keep going uptheyve been rising for 15 years. But when fashion moves on，the owner of that 350，000 beauty will suddenly find his pride and joy is no more a good investment than my childhood Timex. sales of watches to young people have fallen because they_. A. have other devices to tell the time B. think watches too expensive C. prefer to wear an iPod D. have no sense of time seems ridiculous to the writer that_. A. people dive 300 metres into the sea B. expensive clothes sell better than cheap ones C. cheap Cars dont run as fast as expensive ones D. expensive watches with unnecessary functions still sell can be learnt about Swiss watch industry from the passage? A. It targets rich people as its potential customers. B. ItS hard for the industry to beat its competitors. C. It wastes a huge amount of money in advertising. D. Its easy for the industry to reinvent cheap watches. would be the best title for the passage？ A. Timex or Rolex？ B. My Childhood Timex C. Watches？Not for Me! D. Watchesa Valuable CollectionB ， E All to often, a choice that seems sustainable可持续的turns out on closer examination to be problematic. Probably the best example is the rush to produce ethanol乙醇for fuel from corn. Corn is a renewable resourceyou can harvest it and grow more, almost limitlessly. So replacing gas with corn ethanol seems like a great idea.One might get a bit more energy out of the ethanol than that used to make it, which could still make ethanol more sustainable than gas generally, but thats not the end of the problem. Using corn to make ethanol means less corn is left to feed animals and people, which drives up the cost of food. That result leads to turning the fallow landincluding, in some cases, rain forest in places such as Brazilinto farmland, which in turn gives off lots carbon dioxide(CO2)into the air. Finally, over many years, the energy benefit from burning ethanol would make up for the forest loss. But by then, climate change would have progressed so far that it might not help.You cannot really declare any practice“sustainableuntil you have done a complete life-cycle analysis of its environmental环境的costs. Even then, technology and public policy keep developing, and that development can lead to unforeseen and undesired results. The admirable goal of living sustainably requires plenty of thought on an ongoing basis.57.What might directly cause the loss of the forest according to the text?A. The growing demand for energy to make ethanol.B. The increasing carbon dioxide in the air.C. The greater need for farmland.D. The big change in weather.58.The underlined word “itin the second paragraph refers to “_.A. the energy benefitB. the forest lossC. climate changeD. burning ethanol59.The author thinks that replacing gas with corn ethanol is _.A. impracticalB. acceptableC. admirableD. useless60.What does the author mainly discuss in the text?A. Technology.B. Sustainability.C. Ethanol energy.D. Environmental protection.C 全国I，A I suddenly heard an elephant crying as though frightened. Looking down, I immediately recognized that something was wrong, and ran down to the edge of the near bank. There I saw Ma Shwe with her three-month-old calf struggling in the fast-rising water, and it was a life-and-death struggle. Her calf was floating and screaming with fear. Ma Shwe was as near to the far bank as she could get, holding her whole body against the rushing water, and keeping the calf pressed against her huge body. Every now and then the rushing water would sweep the calf away. There was a sudden rise in the water and the calf was washed clean over the mother's body and was gone. Ma Shwe turned quickly to reach it and pressed the calf with her head and trunk(象鼻) against the rocky bank. Then with a huge effort, she picked it up in her trunk and tried until she was able to place it on a narrow shelf of rock. Just at this moment, she felt back into the river. If she were carried down, it would be certain death. I knew, as well as she did, that there was one spot (地点) where she could get up the bank, but it was on the other side from where she had put her calf. While I was wondering what I could do next，I heard the sound of a mothers loveMa Shwe had crossed the river and got up the bank and was making her way back as fast as she could，roaring(吼叫)all the time，but to her calf it was music56The moment the author got down to the river bank he saw Athe calf was about to fall into the river BMa Shwe was placing the calf on the rock Cthe calf was washed away by the rising water DMa Shwe was holding the calf against the rushing water 57How did Ma Shwe manage to save her calf from the fast-flowing water?
