On 26th January, the biggest earthquake (地震) in India took the lives of 25, 000 people. In the morning, when everybody was enjoying holiday, earthquake began. It was about 7. 5 on the Ritcher scale. "There is nothing left between the sky and the earth any more. Everything has been pulled down, " said one of the villagers alive. "There is no water, no food and no one has come to help. "
Nobody died in Pakistan, a country next to India. The City of Lahore was lucky. In Lahore American School, where I was studying, all of the students were safe. They were on the field, so most children didn't feel anything. The earthquake was felt by the teachers that were on the second floor.

After those words Mr Emond felt better. Mrs Davis and Mr Frost didn't feel anything either.

【小題1】People use "Ritcher scale" to tell     .

The greatest saleswoman in the world today doesn’t mind if you call her a girl. That’s because Markita Andrews has got more than eight thousand dollars selling Girl Scout cookies since she was seven years old.

Going door-to-door after school, the terribly shy Markita changed herself into the cookie-selling dynamo（高手）.

It starts with great wish.

For Markita and her mother, whose husband left them when Markita was eight years old, their dream was to travel the world. “I’ll work hard to make enough money to send you to college,” her mother said one day. “When you leave college, you’ll make enough money to take you and me around the world. Okay?”

So at the age of 13 when Markita read in her Girl Scout magazine that the Scout（童子軍）who sold the most cookies would win a free trip for two around the world, she decided to sell all the Girl Scout cookies she could—more Girl Scout cookies than anyone in the world, ever.

Wish, however, alone is not enough. To make her dream come true, Markita knew she needed a plan.

“When you are doing business, wear your Girl Scout clothes when you go up to people in their building, ” her aunt told her. “Always smile, whether they buy something or not and always be nice.”

Lots of other Scouts may have wanted that trip around the world, but only Markita went off in her own uniform each day after school, ready to ask—and keep asking—people to help in her dream.

Markita sold 3,526 boxes of Girl Scout cookies that year and won her trip around the world. Since then, she has sold more than 42,000 boxes of Girl Scout cookies.

Markita is no cleverer than thousands of other people, with dreams of their own. The difference is that many people fail before they even begin. They fear（恐懼）that they will be refused. This fear leads many of us to refuse ourselves and prevents us from getting where we have set off for long before anyone else ever has the chance—no matter what we are selling.

“It takes courage（勇氣）to ask for what you want,” she said. “Courage is not that you don’t have fear. It means doing what it takes although you have a fear of it”.

1.From the passage we learn that ________.

A．a(chǎn) good planning is the most important in the job of selling

B．Markita took the free trip around the world herself

C．Markita has a full-time selling job now

D．to do something successfully, we should do what is needed

2.Markita ________.

A．started to sell Girl Scout cookies when she was 13 years old

B．has only one parent

C．whose parents are rich, went to college

D．sold cookies in different shops

3.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A．The Greatest Saleswoman in the World.

B．A Successful Girl in Selling.

C．The Secret of Selling.

D．Girl Scout Cookies.

4.The main reason for Markita’s success is that ________.

A．she asks for what she wants before she is refused

B．she isn’t afraid to be refused

C．her aunt has told her how to sell things

D．she has a good wish

【小題1】From the passage we learn that ________.

Hi Eric,
　　We don’t have smog in Oxford. We get fog sometimes, but that’s all. Oxford is much smaller than LA. We only have about 135,000 people. I looked up the 1900 population, it was about 57,000. So it is about twice as many people, not ten times as many, like LA! Oxford is much smaller than London - London has about 7,000,000 people. So that means that LA has more people than London. LA gets hotter than Oxford. We have colder winters too – it can be -4°C in winter.
　　I’m not surprised that your new student only knew about the university. It is famous because it is one of the oldest universities in the country. There are about 18,000 students. The brother of my best friend is at Aberystwyth University, in Wales. There the population is 14,000 and half of that are students! It must be a strange place to live! There are more tourists in Oxford than students, I should think. We get a lot of tourists, all year round. We also get a lot of young foreign students because there are a lot of language schools here. You can stand in the middle of Oxford, close your eyes, and hear accents from all over the world!
　　Your e-mail friend, Ben

There are different ways in which people try to deal with the problem of energy．One way is the greater production of common energy sources（能源），such as coal，oil and gas．The trouble with these sources，however，is that they are not renewable．Another way is energy conservation，which means using energy better．Thirdly，renewable energy sources are used even though they are often expensive to develop．One form of these is solar energy（太陽能）．

In Japan，there is a wonderful program of Solar City．The city is 80,000 meters northwest of Tokyo and one of Japan's sunniest places，covering about 410,000 square meters．Seventy-five percent of the homes there are covered by solar panels（太陽能電池板），which are able to provide more than enough energy for a normal family on sunny days．The government has paid much money to help people to make full use of solar energy．A lot of solar energy companies have also given money to help this program．

People living in Solar City think using solar panels is a good way to save money．However，saving money is not the only reason why people are moving into this city．“We moved here because of the panels．It was something we wanted．”said Mika Hiroshima，a newcomer to Solar City．

The Solar City program of Japan has brought hope to us．While we are making use of solar energy，we need to think about other renewable sources that can be used to help solve the energy problem．
