【題目】

Recently, Donald Trump has been chosen to be the Person of the Year by Time. But who is the Person of the Year in your heart?

Katrina, 13, England

In my eyes, the Person of the Year must be British actor Alan Rickman. I love him because of his beautiful voice in the movie Alice in Wonderland. The most successful character he has made is Severus Snape in the Harry Potter movies, who loves Lily till the last second of his life. In 2016, he died at the age of 69. The author of Harry Potter, J.K. Rowling said he was a perfect actor and a wonderful man.

Henry, 13, Portugal

The Person of the Year must be Antonio Manuel de Oliveira Guterres. He was the former premier of Portugal (葡萄牙總理). And now he is the new Secretary-General (秘書長) of the United Nations. Before him, eight persons have taken this job. In my opinion, the UN Secretary General always plays an important role in developing international relationships. I think that he is worth offering the job and will make something great to the world.

Zhang Xiaoning, 15, China

I think Guo Chuan, the famous Chinese sailor, can be Person of the Year. Guo broke many world records with his sailing boat. He often sailed around the world alone. He had strong spirit. Whatever difficulties he met, he never gave up. He went missing at sea earlier this year. But he still lives on in my heart.

Michael, 12, France

The person I want to choose would be Teresa May, the new Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Since the UK left the European Union, many people thought that the UK would be in a mess. However, May made an effort to "save the UK". She has done a good job. It is said that she has dealt with the chaos (混亂) of the English political parties (政黨). She has also solved a lot of problems and showed her abilities to the world. She has been praised as the second Margaret Thatcher (撒切爾) for her hard work.

【1】Who is Alan Rickman?

A. The former premier of Portugal. B. A wonderful British actor.

C. A famous Chinese sailor. D. Prime Minister of the UK.

【2】Why does Zhang Xiaoning regard Guo Chuan as the Person of the Year?

【題目】Choose the best answer (根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容，選擇最恰當?shù)拇鸢?/span>)：

I'm very thankful to the cat and it always makes me think of the time I was with him.

Five years ago, when my father was dying, I travelled a thousand miles from home to be with him in his last days. I felt very sad and it was one of the most difficult and painful times in my life. After he passed away, I stayed alone in his flat. There were so many things to deal with. I was lonely and I hated the silence of the flat.

But one evening the silence was broken: I heard crying outside. I opened the door to find a little cat on the steps. He was thin and poor. He looked the way I felt. I brought him inside and gave him a can of fish. He ate it and then almost immediately fell asleep.

The next morning I checked with neighbors and learned that the cat had been left by his owner. His owner had moved out, so the little cat was there all alone, just like I was. As I walked back to the flat, I tried to work out what to do with him. Having something else to take care of seemed like the very last thing I needed. But as soon as I opened the flat door, he ran to me and jumped into my arms. It was clear from that moment that he didn't want to go anywhere. I started calling him Willis in order to remember my father's best friend.

From then on, things grew easier. With Willis in my lap, time seemed to pass much faster.

When the time finally came for me to return home, I had to decide what to do about Willis. There was absolutely no way I would leave without him.

It's been five years since my father died. Over the years, several people have said how nice it was of me to rescue the cat. But I know that we rescued each other. I may have given him a home but he gave me something greater.

【題目】 We need to be responsible for our environment. Being a frugal consumer(節(jié)儉的消費者) is one way to help. But, what exactly does that mean?

Use It Up

You can use things up instead of wasting them. Squeeze that last bit of toothpaste out of the rube. Use the last little piece of soap. Don’t throw away any bits of the biscuit at the bottom of the box.

Wear It Out

You do not always need to have new things. Suppose your sneakers have broken laces, but they still fit you. Repair them and wear them longer. You don’t have to have the latest iPhone until the old one doesn’t work anymore. Then you can get a new one. Think twice before replacing something that still works.

Make It Do

When something you want is not on hand, look for something else that you already have to take its place. Suppose you are packing your lunch for tomorrow and want a butter sandwich. You are out of butter. Have a cheese sandwich instead so that you can use all of the cheese. Learn to fix broken boys instead of just throwing them away. With an little thought, you can make something do, instead of buying something new.

Do Without

Think about all those things that you would like to have. Do you really need them? How long will you really play with that new toy you saw on TV? Making the things that we want uses up our world ’ s resources(資源). And, getting rid of the things we don’t want any more takes up even more resources and space.

【1】We need to be responsible for our environment , don’t we?

【2】How do we deal with the last little piece of soap?

【3】When do we need to get a new iPhone?

【4】What should we do when something we want is not on hand?

【5】Which way takes up more resources, making things that we want or getting rid of the things we don’t want any more?

【6】What does the writer want to tell us?
