Yu're lking fr a hliday with a difference? It's n ffer right here! Cme with us n a very special tur f the great suthern cntinent Antarctica. It's the nly untuched wilderness left n ur planet.

The high-tech revlutin has inspired a pleasure endless stream f new and exciting electrnic prducts that we just can't live withut. In fact, the speed f technlgical innvatin can make last year's must-have this year's junk. And that's the prblem.
The average life span f a persnal cmputer has been shrtened t arund 18 mnths- and this has nthing t d with wrn-mice r damaged disk drives. Simply put, electrnic prducts can becme ut f date befre yu've even figured ut hw they wrk.
S what happens t all thse ld keybards, mnitrs, rganizers and CPUs? Mst are stred away in a warehuse （仓库）, taking up valuable space. But many end up in landfills, and that is where the truble really begins. Cmputer mnitrs can cntain up t 3. 5 kg f dangerus waste nce they are n lnger in use.
Unfrtunately, this prblem is nt ging t disappear anytime sn--in fact, it is grwing by the minute. In Japan alne, peple thrw away sme 20 millin TVs, washing machines, refrigeratrs and air cnditiners each year. What is t be dne with all this techn-trash?
One way t reduce waste is t avid thrwing away in the first place. Many cmpanies reuse parts frm ld prducts in new mdels. This is nt cheating-it makes bth envirnmental and ecnmic sense. Cannn, fr example, has adpted a philsphy knwn as "kysei", meaning "living and wrking tgether fr the cmmn gd?"-a gal f achieving balance between the envirnment and the crprate （公司的） activities. The cmpany has even gne s far as t say that envirnmental assurance shuld cme befre all business activities, and that cmpanies unable t achieve such assurance d nt deserve t remain in business.
As part f that effrt, the cmpany has started a glbal recycling prgram with a gal t reduce, reuse and recycle mre than 90% f its used prducts. In 1999, fr example, Cannn cllected 128, 000 cpying machines and 12, 175 tns f tner cartridges （色粉盒） in Japan, Eurpe and the United States.
Sme argue that electrnic garbage can als be cntrlled during the design phase. This cncept, called "design fr the envirnment". Nt nly des this make envirnmental sense, but it saves the custmer mney. IBM, meanwhile, recently planned prgrams in Canada and the US that, fr a small fee, will take back nt just an IBM but als any manufacturer's cmputer. Depending n the age and cnditin, the equipment will then be either dnated t charity, r brken dwn fr reusable parts and recyclable materials.
61. With the rapid develpment f science and technlgy high-tech prducts can ____.
A. last fr many years
B. becme wrn ut sn
C. becme ld and useless sn
D. be used frever
62. What is nt the prblem caused by the ut-f-date high-tech prducts?
A. T much rm is needed fr their prbable strage.
B. Peple d nt knw hw t deal with them at all.
C. The amunt f this techn-trash is increasing everyday withut stp.
D. Harmful substances cntained within may pllute the envirnment.
63. What idea can be learned thrugh the example f Cann?
A. Business must be achieved at the cst f envirnment.
B. Envirnment hlds great imprtance than business.
C. Business and envirnment has little impact n each ther.
D. Recycling makes nly envirnment sense instead f ecnmic benefits.
64. When the authr says, "electrnic garbage can be cntrlled during the design phase", he means ___.
A. while designing prducts, we must make smething t cntain garbage
B. while designing prducts, dn't thrw away garbage away
C. while designing, we must wrk ut hw much garbage the new prduct will bring abut
D. while designing, we must take envirnment int cnsideratin.

Everyne knws that the chices we make affect ur future. Suppse I am an intelligent student with gd marks. Hwever, being lazy, I d badly in my examinatins. I am refused entry t university and cannt find a gd jb. The glden future I had imagined will never be. All these are all frm a bad chice!
Hwever, yur chices affect yur future in a way that is a lt mre cmplicated. This is because nearly all the chices yu make affect yur character. Yur character is displayed thrugh yur chices, but it is als frmed by them. Whenever yu make a chice, yur character changes r grws, r diminishes （降低, 减弱） depending n whether the decisin yu made is wise r flish. Yur character is being made by yu, bit by bit, chice by chice. And s, yu becme the srt f persn wh will maké a certain kind f chice in a certain situatin.
Sme will argue this is nt true. After all, the field f human chice is a narrw ne. Mst f the things that frm us in ur lives are nt subject t chice. We cannt chse when and where t be brn, whether ur families will be rich r pr, kind r cruel. We cannt even entirely cntrl wh we will meet in ur lives. With s much that we cannt chse, hw can we be said t be respnsible fr anything?
There is sme truth in this. We are thrwn int life withut any say ver the matter, and have little cntrl ver mst f it. Hwever, we d have sme pwer f chice, and we d cntrl the mst imprtant thing f all: hw we respnd t circumstances. We can chse t keep struggling in hard times, r t give up.
This ability t chse hw we behave and respnd is a great gift. It is ur key t having cnfidence in the future. It is human nature t fear the future, as the future is unknwn. Yu cannt entirely cntrl what will happen t yu tmrrw. But if yu have cnfidence in yur character, frmed by years f making gd chices, then yu d knw ne thing fr certain abut the future: n matter what happens, yu will make a chice that yu will be prud f.
At every mment, then, practise frming yur character when yu make yur chices, n matter hw small they are. Remember: yur chices frm yur character. And yur character determines yur future.
66. With the example in paragraph1, the authr intends t shw that ___.
A. a gd chice f jb is a guarantee f ne's bright future
B. intelligent peple always tend t be smewhat lazy
C. a bad chice f being lazy may affect ne's life bit by bit
D. a glden future will never be if ne is refused by university
67. Yur chices may affect yur future in a cmplicated way because ___.
A. yur future is slely determined by a certain chice
B. yur chices and character shape each ther, finally influencing the future
C. yur future can nly be frmed if the chices are right
D. yur character is always changing and s is yur future
68. What des the underlined part mean in paragraph. 3?
A. nt chsen as a subject t learn
B. nt based n yur chices
C. nt depended n yur future
D. nt affected by yur pleasure
69. Accrding t the passage, why is the ability t chse hw we behave cnsidered a great gift?
A. It guarantees yu t have cnfidence in the future.
B. It ensures cmplete cntrl ver ne's future life.
C. It eliminates yur fear f the unknwn future.
D. It prvides yu a favrable future as expected.
70. What d the "chice" mentined in the passage refer t?
A. Chse t be a brave man with nthing t fear f.
B. Chse t be a hardwrking man t get a bright future.
C. Chse t have a psitive respnse t the unknwn future.
D. Chse t have a determined mind t keep struggling.

I n lnger had the luxury f a husband supprting me, s it was time t get a jb. With my backgrund and qualificatins, the easiest way fr me t earn mney was t becme a teacher.
A friend tld me his schl was lking fr an English teacher, s I arranged an interview with the principal. Fifteen minutes after stepping int her ffice, I was given the jb and asked ifI was able t begin teaching that same day. The current English teacher appeared very keen t leave!
I wndered why she had made such an abrupt decisin, but I was secretly pleased that her lss had becme my gain. I walked twards the classrm n that first day, wndering abut the wisdm f my decisin t accept the principal's ffer. The thught f standing in frnt f a grup f teenagers made me scared and I started t panic.
The classrm was empty when I entered it. Slwly, the teenagers I was expecting arrived in grups f fur and five. Finally every seat was taken and I stared ut at the blank faces in frnt f me. They had been shwn little respect and s they had given up n educatin and n themselves. N ne was listening r seemed t care what I was ding. I knew I wasn't a gifted teacher and it was nly my first day, but nthing I did mtivated these students. They were bred and restless.
I knew why their previus teacher had left. That night I sat at hme. The same questin kept repeating itself in my head, even when I tried t distract myself by watching late-night mvies: "Hw culd I make a huge difference t their lives?". I decided I wuld take up the challenge. It was a slw prcess, but it was als the mst rewarding experience f my life. It tk time, but my patience was rewarded. They had discvered the jy f learning and I had discvered what it really means t be a teacher.
