A punctual person is in the habit of doing a thing at the correct time and is never late for anything.

An unpunctual man never does what he has to do at the right time. He is always in a hurry and in the end of losing both time and his good name. A lost thing may be found again, but lost time can never be got back. Time is more useful than material things. In fact, time is life itself. An unpunctual man is always wasting his most important things as well as others'. An unpunctual person is always complaining that he finds no time to answer letters or return calls. But the man who really has much to do is very careful of his time. He knows that he can not finish all his work unless he carefully does every piece of work.

Being unpunctual is the sign of disrespect (不尊重) towards others. If a person is invited to dinner and arrives later than the time when he should be there, he keeps all other guests (客人) waiting for him. Usually this will be thought as a great disrespect to the host and all the other guests.

Not like a punctual person, an unpunctual one can't do his duty wonderfully, whether it is public or personal. Imagine how it would be if those who should do important tasks failed to be on time. A man who is known to be often unpunctual is never believed by his friends or fellow men.

1.The Chinese meaning of the word “punctual” in this passage is probably “_______”.

A. 聽話的 B. 能干的 C. 守紀(jì)律的 D. 守時的

2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. An unpunctual person often has more time.

B. A punctual person often does his work wonderfully.

3.When you are invited to dinner, you'd better arrive there________.

A. at the decided time B. after the host

C. in a hurry D. before other guests

4. From the passage, we learn that an unpunctual man usually ________ in the bed.

A. saves time for others

B. loses his time and good name

[1]People usually check if their keys, wallets and phones are with them before going out. But many people in China now have one more important thing to take ,a face mask(面罩). They hope that it can protect them from polluted air.

[2]Since January, many cities in China have seen a lot of hazy(霧蒙蒙的)days.

In Beijing, only five days in January were free of smog(霧霾). People in Xi’an saw a blue sky only one day in February. Smog is dirty air that looks like fog and smoke.

[3]An official for the Ministry of Environmental Protection told Beijing News that PM2.5 pollution is the main problem with air pollution. PM.2.5 refers to pollution with small particles(顆 粒) of 2.5 micrometers or less in diameter(直徑).

[4]According to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, driving cars and burning coal are two major reasons for PM2.5.

[5]Poor air is bad for people’s health, especially for Children’s. Hospital shows that from January 5th to January 11th , half of the patients in the internal medicine department(內(nèi)科門診) are there for breathing problems.

[7]The Chinese government said that they would work hard to help the air pollution problems out and give people a healthy living environment.

[8]It calls on people to make full use energy and cut down on energy use.

[9]Don’t often do outdoors sports. If you have to go out, wear a mask. Read the instructions carefully before putting on one. If you won’t wear it in the right way, you may feel dizzy(頭暈) and weak.

[10]Wash your face and clean your nose as soon as you get home. It’s the most important for us to walk out driving a car.

We need to be responsible for our environment. Being a frugal consumer(節(jié)儉的消費者) is one way to help. But,what exactly does that mean?

Use It Up.

①你可以把東西用完而不是浪費它們. Squeeze that last bit of toothpaste out ofthe tube. Use the last little piece of soap. Don’t throw away any bits of the biscuit at the bottom of the box.

Wear It Out.

You do not always need to have new things. Suppose your sneakers have broken laces, but they still fit you. Repair them and wear them longer. You don’t have the latest iPhone until the old one doesn’t work any more. Then you can get a new one. Think twice before replacing something that still works.

Make It Do.

②When something you want is not on hand, look for something else that you already have to take its place. Suppose you are packing your lunch for tomorrow and want a butter sandwich. You are out of butter. ③Have a cheese sandwich instead so that you can use all of the cheese. Learn to fix broken toys instead of just throwing them away. With a little thought, you can make something do,instead of buying something new.

Do Without.

Think about all those things that you would like to have. Do you really need them? How long will you really play with that new toy you saw on TV? Making the things that we want uses up your world’s resources(資源)。 And,getting rid of the things we don’t want any more takes up even more resources and space.

1.將①處劃線句子翻譯成英語。

3.將③處劃線句子改成簡單句。
