In cities across the United States, old factories, schools, railroad stations and other buildings are being renovated(翻新)for new uses. City planners and private inventors are finding that good buildings, no matter how old , can be remodeled for new purposes. “If you’d asked someone four or five years ago whether he’d rent an apartment in an abandoned piano factory or clothing warehouse(大商店), he’d have thought you were crazy,,” says a New York architect. “Today, many people are eager to do it.”
Only a few decades ago, renovation was unpopular and generally far more expensive than taking down abandoned9(抛弃) buildings and starting from the beginning. A change began in the 1990s with a number of well-advertised projects. They included Chirardelli Square in San Francisco, where an old chocolate factory was renovated and made into shops and restaurants, Trolley Square in Salt Lake City, where an abandoned car warehouse became a shopping centre.
What caused the change? “ One reason is nostalgia(怀旧),” a san Francisco builder suggests. “Maybe old is better than new, many people are saying. Feelings about preserving attractive or historic buildings have changed a great deal.” A second cause is economy. The cost of tearing down an old building and constructing a new one from nothing now has risen to the point where it is often less expensive to fix a solid older structure.
Even when the costs of renovation are the same as or a bit more than the costs of putting up a new building, fixing the old building may be better. Gradually, architects and builders are developing knowledge about renovation and preservation, bringing imagination and creativity to the job.
46. In the United States, renovating old creativity to the job___________.
A. has a long history B. is a new trend C. is still unpopular D. is out of date
47. What’s the purpose of this passage?
A. Call on people to renovate old buildings
B. Report a change—renovation in America
C. Encourage people to make use of old building
D. Introduce a new method of renovating old buildings
48. Why did the passage mention Ghirardelli Square and Trolley Square?
A. To introduce us some successful building renovations.
B. To make them known to the public.
C. To discuss whether they were worth restoring.
D. To tell us any old buildings can be renovated.
49. Renovating old buildings in the US needs architects who ______.
A. are skilled at tearing down old buildings B. are good at designing a new building
C. have rich imagination and creativity D. have nostalgia of the city
50. From the passage we can learn that________.
A. building renovation is a better choice even if it costs more than building a new one
B. renovating a building is surely cheaper than putting up a new one
C. the main reason for building renovation is for economic purpose
D. there will be less new buildings in the world
B
Disposing(处理) of waste has been a problem since humans started producing it. As more and more people choose to live close together in cities, the waste-disposal problem becomes increasingly difficult.
During the eighteenth century, it was usual for several neighboring towns to get together to select a faraway spot as a dump site. Residents or trash haulers(垃圾托运者) would transport household rubbish, rotted wood, and old possessions to the site. Periodically(定期的) some of the trash was burned and the rest was buried. The unpleasant sights and smells caused no problem because nobody lived close by.
Factories, mills, and other industrial sites also had waste to be disposed of. Those located on rivers often just dumped the unwanted remains into the water. Others built huge burners with chimneys to deal with the problem.
Several facts make these choices unacceptable to modern society. The first problem is space. Dumps, which are now called landfills, are most needed in heavily populated areas. Such areas rarely have empty land suitable for this purpose. Property is either too expensive or too close to residential neighborhoods. Long-distance trash hauling(垃圾托运) has been a common practice, but once farm areas are refusing to accept rubbish from elsewhere. Cheap land within trucking distance of major city area is almost nonexistent.
Awareness of pollution dangers has resulted in more strict rules of waste disposal. Pollution of rivers, ground water, land and air is a price people can no longer pay to get rid of waste. The amount of waste, however, continues to grow.
Recycling efforts have become commonplace, and many towns require their people to take part. Even the most efficient recycling programs, however, can hope to deal with only about 50 percent of a city’s reusable waste.
51. The most suitable title for this passage would be ______.
A. places for Disposing Waste B. Waste Pollution Dangers
C. Ways of Getting Rid of Waste D. Waste Disposal Problem
52. During the 18 th century, people disposed their waste in many ways EXCEPT for _____.
A. burying it B. recycling it C. burning it D. throwing it into rivers
53. What can be inferred from the fourth paragraph?
- Farm areas accept waste from the city in modern society.
- There is a cheap land to bury waste in modern society.
- It is difficult to find space to bury waste in modern society
- Ways to deal with waste in modern society stay the same.
54. The main purpose of writing this article is to _____.
A. draw people’s attention to waste management
B. warn people of the pollution dangers we are facing
C. call on people to take part in recycling programs
D .tell people a better way to get rid of the waste
C
Leadership is the art of getting someone to do something you want done because he wants to do it.
People naturally want to follow a good leader. After meeting with an effective leader it is not unusual to feel uplifted(情绪高涨), inspired, and motivated to work towards a common goal.
An effective leader makes others feel good about themselves, as well as the work they are doing. The leader has a vision(幻想)of what he or she wants to achieve, and can communicate that vision to others in a way that makes people want to be part of it. One thing a good leader typically does is to communicate the big picture, so that each employee can see how the particular role he or she plays makes a contribution to the final result.
Good leaders are positive and optimistic when they speak about the future. Their enthusiasm wins them plenty of supporters who help make their vision a reality.
Good leaders also understand that different people are motivated by different things. For employees motivated by a need for achievement, a leader explains how the task offers an opportunity to take on a challenge with an achievable goal. And employees are motivated by hearing how they will be part of a team of people working together.
Good leaders will introduce employees by name first, rather than job titles. They refer to employees as team members, companions, or colleagues, never as “servants”. Words have power, including the power to make people feel whether or not they are important to the success of an organization.
Good leaders believe that every team member matters and set up environments that make everyone feel important. It is no wonder they can attract the support they need to help them achieve their goals.
55. What’s the author’s purpose of writing this passage?
A. To tell us how to be a good leader at work.
B. To describe the proper relationship between leaders and employees.
C. To inform us of how leaders and employees should communicate.
D. To show the optimism of a leader.
56. What is the most important to be a good leader?
A. A good leader learns art very well.
B. A good leader can promote employees.
C. A good leader can satisfy all his or her employees.
D. A good leader can make employees happy and willing in their work.
57, What should a good leader do for an employee who wants to succeed at work?
A. To promote the employee to a leadership role.
B. To draw a beautiful picture of the employee’s future.
C. To encourage the employee to meet the challenges of his work.
D. To let the staff know the important role the employee plays.
58. What is Paragraph 6 mainly about?
A. The importance of making introductions by name.
B. A way of remembering others’ names.
C. The key to the success of an organization.
D. How to create a harmonious relationship between leaders and employees.

I think that Lora wants to work part-time for these reasons. First,she can make some pocket money to meet pet daily needs and thus develop a sense of independence. Second. she can learn
how to deal with various problems in the workplace. Third,she can build up new friendships and
improve her social skills.
But her parents may regard learning as an increasingly important task for Lora. This holiday should be a catch-up time for independent study. Besides,personal safety may also be one of their major considerations.
My advice for Lora is this:make a detailed plan for her study and work;ask her friends to work together with her, and tell her parents that she ean manage things properly. I wish Lora a pleasant
summer.
