Ⅲ.阅读理解(8 min.)The Marches were a happy family.
Poverty, hard work, and even the fact that Father March was away with the Union armies could not down the spirits of Meg, Jo, Amy, Beth, and Marmee, as the March girls called their mother.
The March sisters tried to be good but had their share of faults.
Pretty Meg was often displeased with the schoolchildren she taught; boyish Jo was easy to become angry; goldenhaired schoolgirl Amy liked to show up; but Beth, who kept the house, was loving and gentle always.
The happy days passed and darkness came when a telegram arrived for Mrs.
March.
揧our husband is Bvery ill，” it said, “come at once.” The girl tried to be brave when their mother left for the front.
They waited and prayed.
Little Beth got scarlet fever when she was taking care of the sick neighbor.
She became very ill but began to recover by the time Marmee was back.
When Father came home from the front and at that joyful Christmas dinner they were once more all together.
Three years later the March girls had grown into young womanhood.
Meg became Mrs.
Brooke, and after a few family troubles got used to her new state happily.
Jo had found pleasure in her literary efforts.
Amy had grown into a young lady with a talent for design and an even greater one for society.
But Beth had never fully regained her health, and her family watched her with love and anxiety.
Amy was asked to go and stay in Europe with a relative of the Marches.
Jo went to New York and became successful in her writing and had the satisfaction of seeing her work published there.
But at home the bitterest blow was yet to fall.
Beth had known for some time that she couldn't live much longer to be with the family and in the spring time she died.
News came from Europe that Amy and Laurie, the grandson of a wealthy neighbor, had planned to be married soon.
Now Jo became even more successful in her writing and got married to Professor Bhaer and soon afterwards founded a school for boys.
And so the little women had grown up and lived happily with their children, enjoying the harvest of love and goodness that they had devoted all their lives to.
We can learn from the passage that ______.
A. Jo was the most successful in career among the March girls
B. Amy married Laurie and settled down in America
C. the March father joined the Union army and died in a battle
D. Jo was shy like a timid(腼腆的) boy but easy to get angry4.
Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

B. The March Parents
C. The March Girls
D. The March Relatives
5.
It can be inferred from the passage that the March family had ______.

Ⅳ.阅读简答(10 min.)f of the world population expected to live in cities by the early part of the 21st century, the Shanghai 2010 World Expo's focus on a better city bears profound meaning.
What might future cities look like 28 years from now? Here are some scenarios: things to come, things to go.
Zero waste
Waste disposal is one of the biggest headaches for cities. Apart from recyclable waste, everything is buried or incinerated, only to pollute the environment. Plastic waste remains underground for several decades. The world produces much more garbage that it can dispose of.
Now at the Expo, all waste is delivered to a compression station where the waste is sorted, filtered, decontaminated, deodorized and compressed before finally being disposed of at designated spots. In Beijing, people living in the Asuwei area turn their household waste into organic fertilizers which are used to grow plants at residence communities.
No more transportation problems during the Spring Festival
The Spring Festival, the most important Chinese holiday when everyone returns home, has caused headaches for millions of Chinese. More than 2 billion people travel at the same time, making obtaining travel tickets and the journey difficult.
But in 28 years, Spring Festival travel may not be a problem at all. China plans to have more than 120，000 kilometers of railway and a rapid transportation network that will serve 90 percent of the population by 2024. And because most of China will be cities, people will not have to go to other places to find a job, so migration will no longer be so large璼cale.
Newspapers to disappear
American scholar Philip Meyer predicts that newspapers will come to an end in 2043. Utagawa Reizou, former editor璱n璫hief of The Mainichi Dailyf
News, believes that the newspaper will be gone in 2030.
This kind of prediction may worry those in print news business. In the UK,
the circulations of national newspapers are declining. Major Japanese newspapers have gone into debt. In the US,
declining circulations and ad revenues have forced several newspapers to stop printing paper editions.
Media tycoon Rupert Murdoch thinks the future of media relies on interaction through the Internet. In the future, digital newspapers will be sent to portal web terminals through wirelessly. Readers can discuss issues with journalists and editors. Information will move faster.
Oil to run out
In August 2009, Fatih Birol, chief economist of the International Energy Agency, said that oil is running out faster than expected and that the world will likely feel the tightness in supply in the next five years.
Scientists have found substitutes for oil as fuel. Coal, natural gas, solar power, nuclear power and even water can replace oil as sources of energy. Flammable ice reserves alone can support humans for the next 1，000 years.
