(21)A American cities are similar to other cities around the world: In every country, cities reflect the values of the culture. American cities are changing, just as American society is changing. After World War , the population of most large American cities reduced; however, the population shifts（转移）to and from the city reflect the changing values of American society. In the late 1940s and early 1950s, city residents（居民）became wealthier. They had more children so they needed more space. They moved out of their apartments in the city to buy their own homes. They bought houses in the suburbs（郊区）. Now things are changing, The children of the people who left the cities in the 1950s are now adults. Many, unlike their parents, want to live in the cities. They continue to move to Sun Belt cities and older ones of the Northeast and Midwest. Many young professionals are moving back into the city. They prefer the city to the suburbs because their jobs are there; or they just enjoy the excitement and possibilities that the city offers. This population shift is bringing problems as well as benefits. Countless poor people must leave their apartments in the city because the owners want to sell the buildings or make apartments for sale instead of for rent. In the 1950s, many poor people did not have enough money to move to the suburbs; now many of these same people do not have enough money to stay in the cities. Only a few years ago, people thought that the older American cities were dying. Some city residents now see a bright, new future. Others see only problems and conflicts.

Along with the papers he would bring a small bag of treats (美食) for my two brothers and me.Western New York had terrible winter weather: rain, sleet (雨夹雪), or even 3 feet of snow.

(5)Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram/Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answerSome rays(光线) of sunlight are harmful to our eyes, even though the sun is over 93 million miles away. Even on cloudy days, the suns rays can still damage our eyes. In addition, damage to our eyes comes from other things as well, such as reflection, especially when we are around water, sand, or even snow. This is the reason why people who often go out wear sunglasses for protection. It is therefore advised that we wear sunglasses whenever we are outdoors during the day. Some people may wonder, though, how sunglasses protect our eyes.The secret lies in the coating(涂层) and the lenses(镜片) used. Sunglasses are tinted(染色) with various colors; each color tint is used to prevent a certain type of light. The tint is especially effective for UVB rays, which are most dangerous to our eyes. With coatings, UVB rays are unable to pass through the lenses. Thus the coating and the special design of the lenses can contribute greatly to protecting our eyes from harmful rays.Furthermore, sunglass lenses are designed with an anti-reflective coating to cut down on reflection from water and snow. This reflection prevention is of great benefit to drivers and people who take part in water and snow sports.On the market, there are lots of sunglasses that are not of good quality, which not only have no effect on protecting our eyes from harmful rays, but can also do more damage to our eyes. Therefore, when you buy sunglasses, you should ask the person who is selling them whether the sunglasses are of an acceptable quality. If they say they do not know, you should go to another store until you can find a shopkeeper that can tell you which pair offers the best protection.Title: How sunglasses protect our eyesSome harmful things to our eyesSunlight Damaging our eyes even when it is 69._ReflectionDamaging our eyes when we are around water, sand or snow.The secret of sunglasses70._Preventing certain types of lightThe lenses71._ reflection from water and snowThe 72._ on buying sunglassesAvoiding getting sunglasses of 73._Going to shops whose keepers can give information on sunglasses offering the best protectionSection B (8)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet. First came the survey that smoking causes lung cancer; then researchers found second-hand smoke leads to certain illnesses; another study found that “third-hand” smoke harms peoples health as well. Research found that nicotine can stick to indoor surfaces (such as the surface of chairs, tables and clothes and even peoples skin) for days where it combines with bad stuff which injures peoples health. They form new cancer-causing stuff. This is the bad influence of “third-hand” smoke. Scientists found there was a large amount of caner-causing stuff on indoor surfaces after a smoker had been away from the room for hours or even days. The stuff on the surfaces caused danger to people, especially young children. Xkb1.com The idea of “third-hand” smoke came from a study by Dr Jonathan of the Harvard Cancer Centre in Boston. He said that a mixture of several kinds of bad stuff can remain on soft furniture, clothes and other indoor surfaces for hours or even days after a cigarette is put out. How much bad influence it has on peoples health depends on how wide the space is. The wider the space, the less influence it has. In a place as small as a car, “third-hand ” smokes influence can be very dangerous. Some may think that smoking outside will be OK. But they are wrong. Smoking outside can also form “third-hand” smoke, because nicotine will remain on the smokers skin and clothes and then get indoors with them.The study, published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, also asked for opinions on smoking in 1,500 families in New York and found that most parents knew about second-hand smoke, but only 3% of the parents heard about “third-hand” smoke.74.
