Among them, there are hydroelectric- powered(水电动力的)toy cars, and doll houses with wind turbines and rainwater catchers. The bright green “Future Planet” space station features an inner atrium(中庭) with a fan that is powered by a functioning solar cell. Its aim is to get kids to use their imagination about how energy will be created in the future.
Makers and retailers believe such toys will play an increasingly important role in their future—and that of our kids. “Energy is the question of the future and we are definitely thinking about this as we move ahead,” said Judith Schweinitz, a spokeswoman for Playmobil, maker of the solar panel-fitted space station. “It is increasingly being brought into our play concept.” Green toys—which range from those made of sustainable materials to ones like the space station that just raise environmental awareness—make up only a sliver of the $84 billion international toy market, but their share is growing, studies indicate. Environmental research firm Earthsense, based in Syracuse, New York, predicts that green toys will account for about $1 billion, or 5 percent of U.S. toy sales in the next five years. Parents are smart and they want information about what’s in the product. That’s what’s really driving the market. 本文向我们介绍了德国研制“环保”玩具的最新情况,该研究的目的是提高儿童节能环保的意识。

Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.
Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
Many animal lovers would like to do more to help animals, but aren’t sure where to start or feel like they just don’t have the time. The good news is that there are many simple things you can do to help protect animals.
Think twice before you decide
The decisions you make when it comes to eating meat or other animal products can go a long way toward stopping the killing of animals. Consider eating a vegetarian diet. If you aren’t ready to make this change, there are still things you can do. Do not buy animal products from companies known to use practices that go against the law such as using drugs to increase milk production in cows.
Help get the word out
Getting the word out about the problems faced by animals can be as easy as putting up a notice on your car. Also, talk to your friends and family members about important issues that are related to animals. Give some simple advice to a friend with a new pet about the serious pet over-population problem we’re facing. Turn to some books on the subject if you are not so clear about the advice you give your friend.
Write a letter
We’ve all heard the saying, “ The pen is more powerful than the sword”. Put this idea to the protection of animals. If a company has practices or rules that are harmful to animals, write them a letter to let them know you are angry about them, and that you won’t buy their products until they make some changes. Write letters to state and local legislators(立法者) to let them know how important it is that they support legislation that protects animals. Make them know that their actions will have a great effect on your vote.
Be more loving
If you’re considering adding a dog or a cat to your family, think about getting one from a homeless-animal house rather than buying a pet. There are many wonderful animals just waiting for a home. By taking back an animal from there, you will be helping in the fight against pet over-population, as well as giving your money to those who are responsible for taking care of pitiful animals.
Let your actions be an example to others
It may sound simple, but one of the best ways to help animals is to let your actions speak to the world. You should do the following things first by yourself: Treat all living creatures with respect. Care about your pets and look after them well. Avoid entertainment places that use animals to perform. Support legislation(立法)that protects animals. All of these things set an example for others to follow.

Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.
I attended a college which not only created an environment for attaining professional qualification but also ensured that every student left the college as an all-rounded individual.
The lecturers in this college were excellent. One of the lecturers, in particular, captured my attention most, not because of his tutorial skills but in the way he would always walk and leave no dirt or paper behind him. He would always bend over and pick any piece of paper lying on the floor and throw it to the nearest dustbin. On his way to the office, he would always move the dustbins to the right position if they were left by the cleaners in a wrong position.
Initially, when I watched him, I used to wonder, why bother? However, growing up with this picture in mind, I have come to follow the same practice. Walking down the street, I often unconsciously bend over to pick that piece of paper blown away by wind from the dustbin or thrown without care on the street and put it in the next litter bin. Passing through a clean street and seeing one piece of litter lying around just moves me to leave the place clean.
As I look at the puzzled faces around me whenever I do this, I often remember the story of the little girl who was walking on the beach and saw turtles (海龟) washed ashore (岸上) by the currents struggling to get back in the water. She picked them up one by one and threw them back in the water. One guy walking by asked her why bother since there were so many of them. She bent down, picked one up, looked at the guy and said, “I cannot save all of them, but I can sure make a difference to this one.” She then threw it back in the ocean.
So, I may not clean the whole town by picking litter but I sure can leave one pavement clean by doing so, one at a time. 51. What benefits did the students get from the college the author attended?

请用英语写一篇不少于120词的短文, 简要描述漫画内容, 并结合生活实际, 就漫画主题发表感想, 题目自拟。
参考词汇:义务劳动voluntary labor; 观念outlook
One possible version:
New Outlook?
We can see in the picture that one person is asking the other to do some voluntary labour, but the other feels it very funny, saying, “Aren’t you kidding me? Times have changed and doing voluntary labor is already out of date.”
It is true that with the development of economy, many people have become rich. However, with their wallets full, some people have changed their outlook on value, laying too much emphasis on nothing but money and personal interests. At one time, serving the people heart and soul was glorious, but now it is being constantly laughed at.
In my opinion, spiritual civilization is as important as material civilization. Nowadays, the government advocates setting up a harmonious society. Therefore, people should reply to the call with action. If everyone does a little bit for others and the society, our world will be a much better one.
