【題目】
Hang Suning, 16, and her classmates have something special to do every week. They collect plastic bottles around the school yard during the break and sell them after school.
Do the students do it to make pocket money? No, the money doesn’t go to their pockets, but to their class. These students from the Second High School Attached to Beijing Normal University take part in a resource (資源) recycling activity. It helps students learn to save resources by themselves.
The school gives a bucket(桶) to each class. Students can collect and exchange three plastic bottles for one notebook or sell the bottles for eight fen each for their classes.
Lin Lixin, 16, enjoys this activity. The bucket in her classroom gets filled every two weeks. She and her
classmates even bring plastic bottles from home. “I seldom buy notebooks now,” Lin said. “And we have raised enough money for a class party.”
The school’s Green Action Team buys bottles from students and sells them to a waste materials collection
store outside the school.
Li Shen set up the team when he saw something that upset him. “Plastic bottles used to be thrown in the
corners of the classrooms. It was easy for the germs(細(xì)菌) to grow,” said the 16-year-old. “Recycling was a
must.”
With the school’s help, his team has recycled over 20,000 plastic bottles since the beginning of 2009, and
raised about 1,000 yuan for classes.
The school has been organizing activities to save resources for years. Similar activities include recycling used books and doing community service, according to Chen Ying, one of the teachers in the school.

【題目】
How nice are you? Do you give money to homeless people? Do you offer your seat to someone in need on a bus?
Many people believe that confident people think more highly of themselves, while those who have low self-esteem (自尊) think less of their good qualities. However, a new study says it might not be true, reported The Guardian.
The study was done by Jonathan Freeman, a psychology professor from the University of London, UK. He found that 98 percent of British people consider themselves to be among the nicest 50 percent of the population. In the study, Freeman first asked some people to rate (評級) their own niceness. Then he got people to answer questions like “Do you give directions to strangers?” and “Have you ever donated blood?”. The results showed that people are not as nice as they think they are. Two thirds of them seldom helped others carry heavy shopping bags, and only a quarter of them donated blood.
In another study by psychologists from universities in Chicago and Virginia, US, some people were shown pictures of themselves. Some pictures had been more or less changed to make them appear more attractive(有吸引力的). When asked to pick the unchanged pictures, people usually chose the more attractive ones.
So, why do we think we’re nicer than we actually are? There are many theories (理論). A popular one says we unknowingly cheat ourselves, so that we can get confidence without knowingly lying to ourselves or each other.
How can we solve it? Other studies show that there is a simple way: feedback (反饋). Compare others’ opinion toward yourself with your own and you will see a clearer picture.
【1】Where does the passage most probably come from?
A. A magazine. B. A grammar book. C. A dictionary. D. A story book.
【2】What did the new study find?
A. Confident people have more good qualities.
B. People with low self-esteem are mostly not nice.
C. People are not as nice as they think they are.
D. Confident people don’t like those with low-esteem.
【3】Which of the following about Freeman’s study is NOT true?
A. Freeman is a British psychology professor.
B. About 98 percent of British people think they’re nice people.
C. The people answered some questions about niceness.
D. One fourth of the people helped others carry heavy bags.
【4】According to Para 5, people chose the more attractive pictures of themselves because ________.
A. they were not happy with their looks
B. it was hard to tell small differences
C. they lied to themselves without knowing it
D. they wanted themselves to look good
【5】What does the story mainly talk about?
A. How to be a nicer person. B. Others’ opinions toward you.
C. How to know ourselves well. D. People’s opinion of their own niceness.
