It was then that I learned how_11_it is to have a passion in life.That day I went home in Moms car. When Mom _12_at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed _13_ rags(破旧衣服). He was homeless. That didnt interest me, _14_I had seen many people like him before. Those people usually looked unhappy and hopeless. But this man was _15_in some way. He was not sitting down with a _16_expression. Instead, he had a_17_ in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious thing he had. “Mom, why does that man have a radio though hes _18_?” I asked“He _19_it,” she replied.“But why doesnt he use the money to buy food or clothes? He _20_ something that he didnt need.” “Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes arent the most important.”That man must care so_21_about music that he bought a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized that _22_is the key to life.Since then, I am always thinking of _23_is truly important in life. A home, a meal, clothes these things are only _24_ of the life.

We all need a passion which gives a person the happiness they need to keep going.11AimportantBstrangeCdangerousDdifficult12AexercisedBwalkedCstoodDstopped13AonBinCatDof14AbutBandCsoDbecause15AcommonBpoliteCdifferentDrude16AnervousBsadCmadDhappy17AhatBphoneCradioDscarf18AhopelessBhomelessCcarelessDuseless19AboughtBmadeCfixedDborrowed20Aasked forBwaited forCpaid forDlooked for21AlittleBmuchCmanyDfew22AhappinessBhealthCknowledgeDfriendship23AwhatBwhoCwhereDwhen24ApowerBpurposeCkeyDpart25AwarmBhotCdarkDrelaxing三、阅读单选（共14小题，每小题2分，满分28分）APaper or plastic? _.Governments around the world are pushing for an end to plastic(塑料) straws(吸管) and bags. More and more businesses are switching to paper products as an alternative(替代品). Paper is considered by many to be better than plastic. However, it, too, is harmful to the environment. Firstly, paper bags and straws are made from trees. Trees, as you know, can reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in the atmosphere. They can slow down climate change. An increase in the use of paper bags can cause more deforestation.Secondly, the production of paper items needs more energy and water. About 10% more energy and four times as much water is used to produce a paperback than a plastic one. You might say that we can use recycled(可循环使用的) paper to save the energy and water. This seems to be a good idea. However, it takes even more energy and water to go through the recycling process than to make a brand new paper bag.
