There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theater. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers（抢劫犯）. Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment（公寓房间）, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not untill I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasnt cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where Id heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.4Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck（垃圾车）pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho? ” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes. “Is this what youre looking for? ”he asked , holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 A.M. by the time I got into bed. I wouldnt get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldnt be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.56. How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?A. Cold and sick B.

On her way home the writer_.A. lost her wallet unknowingly B. was stopped by a garbage truck driverC. was robbed of her wallet by an armed man D. found some homeless people following her.59.

Her wallet was found in a garbage truck.60. From the text, we can infer that the writer_.A. would stop working at night B. would stay on in San FranciscoC. would make friends with cleaners D. would give up her job at the bank BThese days a green building means more than just the colour of the paint. Green building can also refer to environmentally friendly houses, factories, and offices.Green building means “ reducing the impact（影响）of the building on the land”, Taryn Holowka of the U.S. Green Building Council in Washington, D.C., said.According to Holowka, buildings account for（占了）65 percent of total U.S. electricity use.But green buildings can reduce energy and water use. Also, the buildings are often located near public transportation such as buses and subways, so that people can drive their cars less. That could be good for the environment, because cars use lots of gas and give off pollution. Green buildings are often built on developed land, so that the buildings dont destroy forests.Marty Dettling is project manager for a building that put these ideas into action. The solaire has been called the countrys first green high-rise building. According to Dettling, “Weve reduced energy use by one-third and our water by 50 percent.”The Solaire cuts energy in part by using solar power. “ On the face of the building we have solar panels which change the suns energy into electricity, ” Dettling explained.The Solaire also has lights that automatically turn off when people leave the room. In addition, the building has lots of windows, allowing people to use the sun for light during the day. The Solaire cuts water by reusing it.5Not everyone is eager to move into a green building, however, some people think that things like solar panels cost more money than traditional energy sources. Anyhow, Holowka said, “ Its going to be big. ”61. In the second paragraph, the underlined words “the buildling” most probably refer to_.A. an ordinary building B. an energy-saving buildingC. a green-colored building D. a building in Washington, D.C.62. A green building is often built on an area of land_.A.which has thick forests aroundB.which has already been used for buildings.C.where people of high income liveD.where traveling around by car is most convenient63. When Holowka says in the last paragraph, “Its going to be big”, she means that green buildings_.A. will be more comfortable B. will become popular in the futureC. will be more environmentally D. will take the place of traditional buildings64.What is the main subject discussed in the text?A. Dettling desighed the first green building in the U.S.B. Energy shortage calls for buildings of new design.C. Green buildings help save environment.D. The Solaire serves as a model of high buildings.CCentral ParkOutside among the trees, watch the wildlife both the human and animal varieties.

What is the purpose of these text?A. To provide information of living in New YorkB. To provide directions of city traffic in New YorkC. To give visitors a guide to New YorkD. To give a brief introduction to the history of New YorkDWe live in a technological society where most goods are mass-produced by unskilled labor. Because of this, most people think that craft（手工艺） no longer exists。One of the ways these people wrongly support their view is by pointing to 100-year-old homes which are still solid, and arguing that it is the craftmanship that is responsible for their durability（持久性）. “ Homes in those days were well-built,” they say. No doubt these homes were well-built, but what these people have done is mix up the quality of material used in the house with the quality of the craftmanship.Homes today could be built to last just as long as those old home if people were willing or able to pay the price. For example, most people can no longer afford solid oak stairways, although they were once fairly common in older homes. Nor can they afford the high cost of employing a carpenter（木匠） to build the stairway. Yet if someone can pay the high cost, there are still plenty of carpenters around able to make those stairways. And not only would these carpenters know how to build them, they would probably do a better job than carpenters of old.One thing the modern carpenter has which enables him to do a better job is much more advanced tools. Such tools as laser beams and powerplanes help them lay out a house better and make more precision cuts(精确切割) on the wood. Also, it is not uncommon any more to find carpenters with college degrees and carpenters with a solid knowledge of mathematics, which would enable them to deal with more difficult house designs.The problem of modern quality, then, really boils down to the problem of material, for the modern carpenter is just as able to produce craftmanship as the carpenter of fifty years ago, but only if given proper material.68. Compared to the carpenters in the past, modern carpenters are _.A. more successful B. more learned C. more imaginative D. more hardworking69. What does the underlined word “they ”(paragraph 2) refer to?A. Carpenters who are fond of oak stairways.B. Carpenters who have college degrees.C. People who think highly of carpenters of old.D. People who think that modern material is of low quality.70. What does the third paragraph mainly discuss?A. People in the past preferred to use oak to build stairways.B. It is now expensive to employ a carpenter.C. Modern houses last as long as the old ones.D. Good carpenters still exist in modern times.71. What would be the best title for the text?A. Is Craft Dead? B. Craft, Back to Life?C. History of Craftmanship D. Carpenters Today and Yesterday7EIt was an early September day, cool and bright and just right for running, and I was in the first few miles of a 10-mile race over a course(路线) with a few high hills.
