A
A few years ago, Masaru Ibuka, the head of Sony, was at a company planning meeting. Suddenly he had an idea. He stopped the meeting and asked everyone what would happen if Sony took away the recording function(功能)and speakers and sold headphones with a tape player instead.
Almost everyone thought he was silly. Still, Ihuka kept his idea and worked at it. The result, of course, turned out to be the successful Sony Walkman.
Good ideas often start with a really silly question. Bill Bowerman was making breakfast one day. As he stood there making cakes for his son, he asked himself what would happen if he put

rubber into his mold(模具). Later, he tried it and the result looked something like the bottom of most sports shoes we see today. Still, when he took his idea to several shoe companies, he was laughed at. In fact, every single company turned him down. Though rather disappointed, Bowerman went on to form his own company, making NIKE sports shoes.
We know today, of course, that each of these ideas caused a successful thing that has changed the way many of us live. The best questions are usually opened (开放的)and are often \Children aren't afraid to ask such questions, but adults usually are. Think how different the world might be if people never asked \( )26.

Saving water is an important part of going green. As water becomes less and polluted more, conservation(保护)becomes more and more important. The less water you use, the less wastewater will end up in our rivers and lakes. Wasting water means that more water needs to be treated and cleaned, a process that requires quite a lot of energy.
As it is said above, cutting down on water usage is one of the most important things you can do for your local environment and the planet as a whole. That is why more green households are going blue: cutting down their water footprint by conserving and harvesting(收获)water.
It may seem like a big concept, but going blue starts with small changes that everyone can make. Something as simple as turning off the tap while you brush your teeth can save a lot of water. Wash your fruit and vegetables in a bowl rather than under a tap to save even more. Make sure that the taps are fully turned off every time you step away from the sink or the shower - all those little drips can add up to a lot of water waste.
Another way of reducing your water footprint is reducing your dependence on the main water supply. Rainwater harvesting can meet a lot of your home's water needs. Many of us already practice rainwater harvesting in a small way. Collecting water from your gutters(檐沟)is a great way to keep your garden green without running the sprinkler(洒水器). ( )29. The underlined word \ in this passage.
A.未成熟的 B.环保 C.嫉妒 D.健康的
( )30. According to the passage, which is NOT the reason that people should save water? A. Treating wastewater needs much energy.
B. The water on the Earth is becoming less and less. C. The water on the Earth is becoming polluted more.
D. Rainwater harvesting can meet a lot of your home's water needs.
( )31. According to the passage, all of these can be used to save water except .
A. washing fruit and vegetables under a tap
3
B. using a bowl to wash your fruit and vegetables C. making sure taps are fully turned off all the time
D. turning off the tap every time while brushing your teeth ( )32. From the passage. we can know that . A. we can get enough water by harvesting
B. most people pay no attention to saving water
C. we can practice rainwater harvesting in a small way D. harvesting water is more necessary than conserving it

Jay Kohl, an American student, posted an online advertisement two weeks ago searching for a Chinese family to stay with so that he can learn the language and culture.
\Wudaokou area to improve my Chinese language skills,” he wrote. \English tutoring(家教)and even can help you with applying for foreign universities.” He still hasn't found a suitable home.
\that contacted me seem to be interested in doing business instead of cultural exchange,\o rent an apartment in the end.”
Kohl isn't the only foreigner finding it difficult to find a homestay in Beijing. Michael Benson, who wants to come to Beijing in September, has also faced the same problem.
Why is finding a homestay family so difficult? Beijing Today consulted a Chinese teacher, Jessie Xi, who has been teaching foreign students at the University of International Business and Economics for more than six years.
Xi has accepted many homestays, and from her own experience and what she's been told, she said there were four major problems visitors may meet when applying for homestays. Problem 1:Having too high expectation for language improvement. Problem 2: Considering oneself as a guest instead of a family member. Problem 3: Not making clear what a family's rules are beforehand. Problem 4; Overly(过分)high demands for the living environment. ( )33. Kohl wanted to look for a homestay in China because he ..
