What do you think the future will be like? Here are some answers from some students.
Mary: If we don’t take good care of the earth now, our children and grandchildren will be born into a world with much pollution(污染). There will be fewer trees and more buildings, because there will be more people.
Jack: I agree with Mary. Things will be worse(更糟). The weather in the future will be much hotter. Humans(人类)won’t be able to live on the earth. They will have to look for another planet to live on.

The first Starbucks coffee shop opened in 1971 in downtown Seattle, Washington, in the United States. It was a small coffee shop that roasted its own coffee beans. The coffee shop’s business did well, and by 1981 there were three more Starbucks stores in Seattle.
Things really began to change for the company in 1981. That year, Howard Schultz met the three men who ran(经营) Starbucks. Schultz worked in New York for a company that made kitchen equipment. He noticed that Starbucks ordered a large number of special coffee makers, and he was curious about the company. Schultz went to Seattle to see what Starbucks did, and he liked what he saw. He wanted to become part of the company. In 1982, the original(原先的) Starbucks owners hired Schultz as the company’s head of marketing.
In 1983, Schultz travelled to Italy. The unique atmosphere of the coffee bars there caught his eye. To Schultz it seemed that Italians spent their daily lives in three places: home, work and coffee bars. His experience in Italy gave Schultz a new idea for Starbucks back in Seattle.
Schultz created an atmosphere for Starbucks coffee shops that was comfortable, and customers everywhere seemed to like it. Between 1987 and 1992, Starbucks opened 150 new stores—and that was only the beginning. In fact, by the year 2000, three new Starbucks stores opened somewhere around the world every day!
Today, Starbucks has thousands of stores, including stores in twenty-six countries. One thing that helps make Starbucks succeed in cities outside the United States is the way Starbucks works with local stores and restaurants. By working together with a store already in the city, Starbucks gets an understanding of customers in the city. This understanding helps Starbucks open stores in the right locations for their customers.
11．What is the main idea of this passage?
　　A．How Starbucks has grown
B．What Starbucks makes．
　　C．Starbucks’customers．
D．How Starbucks makes its coffee．
12．Which is true about Starbucks’first ten years of business?
　　A．It grew very quickly．
B．It was run by Howard Schultz．
　　C．It made special coffee makers．
D．It was a small company．
13．Who is Howard Schultz?
　　A．A coffee seller in New York．
　　B．An Italian coffee maker
　　C．The man who changed the company．
　　D．One of the original owners of the company．
14. How many new Starbucks stores probably opened in the year 2000 around the world?
　A.Three.   B.About1095.   C.Two thousand. D. Thirty-six.
15．What helps Starbucks succeed in places outside the United States?

For many years, artists have flocked（聚集）to Paris, France, to paint or to learn to paint. Perhaps artists first went there because of the city’s beauty. They went to paint pictures of the broad tree-lined streets, the great churches, and the graceful river bridges. The artists felt comfortable in Paris because the people of the city had always enjoyed art.  Paris had great art museums, filled with famous paintings and statues from many countries. And the people of Paris had always welcomed new ideas. In this city, artists felt free to experiment with new ways of painting. As soon as famous artists painted in Paris, students came to learn them. People came to buy paintings.  Men called art dealers（商人） set up galleries where paintings could be bought and sold.  Others kept shops that sold artists’ paints and supplies. Students and the artists who were not yet famous could live in Paris for very little money. They learned by studying great art in the museums, and they learned from one another.  They held art fairs, hanging their paintings outdoors along the streets.
Today, New York City and Florence, Italy, are also famous art centers.  But the world’s principal art exhibits are still held in Paris.  Important judges of art live there.  Most of the new ways of painting that have started in the last hundred years began in Paris. So artists and art dealers still go to Paris because it is the world’s leading art center.

The most unusual museum in London is the Science Museum. In most museums, there’s no shouting and no running, and you aren’t allowed to touch the exhibits(展品). But the Science Museum is different, because it’s noisy! People talk about what they can see and do there, and some of the machines are noisy as well. Visiting the Science Museum is fun and it’s a great way to learn about science because you can work things out and try out ideas.
When I visit the Science Museum, I go to the Launch Pad. This is my favourite room because you can do physics experiments. For example, if you want to fill a bag with falling sand, you have to move a kind of truck on wheels into the correct position. I also go to the Rocket Show. You can learn how we travel into space and back again.
Then I go upstairs to Human and Nature room. You can compare your speed with animals there. You hear a noise and push a button(按钮). If you aren’t fast enough, the lion catches you! I’m faster than all my friends, but the lion still catches me.
There are also rooms on transport, the environment and space technology, as well as maths, physics and chemistry.
You can do a lot of things in this museum, but you have to obey some rules as well. For example, you mustn’t take photos of the exhibits in the museum. But you can buy postcards of them in the museum shops.
Above all, the Science Museum is free. That means you can drop in for a few minutes or you can stay as long as you like—it’s open every day, from 10 am to 6 pm. So if you ever go to London, make sure you visit the Science Museum. It’s my favourite museum in the whole world.
1. What is the writer’s favourite room?
A. The Launch Pad.
B. The rooms on space technology.

2. What can’t you do in the Science Museum?
A. Touch the machines.
B. Do chemistry experiments.
C. Take photos of the exhibits.
D. Talk loudly about what you see.
3. How much does it cost to go into the Science Museum?
A. $10 for adults.                       B. $6 for children.
C. Only free for children.               D. Free for everyone.

A. 6 hours.      B. 8 hours.     C. 10 hours.    D.12hours.
