Alfredo Moser is a Brazilian worker who is skilled at repairing machines. His wife says her husband has always been handy at home and made tables and chairs. Alfredo has invented a way of lighting his house during the day without electricity.
He has been using plastic bottles filled up with water and a little bleach(漂白劑) to provide dark rooms with light for many years. And the idea has now spread across the world. It is predicted that his lighting system, which works using refraction(折射) of the sunlight, will be fitted in over a million homes by the end of this year.
Alfredo used normal plastic drinks bottles that are often thrown away. The secret of the water in the bottles is the bleach added to water, which stops it turning green in the sunlight. Mr. Moser drills a hole in a roof tile and then pushes the bottle in from below, keeping the bottle in place with polyester resin (聚酯樹脂). Depending on the strength of sunlight, the light fills his home, and the bottles are just like electric bulbs of between 40 and 60 watts.
Alfredo came up with the idea for his “Moser light’’ during one of the blackouts in Brazil in 2002. He said only factories had power in his home city, in southern Brazil during the energy shortage.
The local supermarket and his neighbors’ houses are using Moser lights. He earned a few dollars, but his invention has not made him a rich man. Now a great number of people admire what he is doing!
1.What did Alfredo’s wife think of him?
A. He was always busy repairing machines. B. He couldn’t do any housework.
C. He was clever with his hands. D. He is a helpful man to save our world.
2.The reason Alfredo put a little bleach into the bottle is_________________.
A. because the bottle can give more light.
B. because the bleach can keep the bottle in a roof tile.
C. because the bleach can protect water from turning green.
D. because the bleach can give out the sunlight.
3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. People can use Moser’s lights only at night.
B. Moser’s light gives too poor light.
C. Moser’s bottles use electricity to light the room.
D. Moser’s bottle light is a green idea.
4.The underlined word “blackouts” in the passage probably means “___________”.
A. 地震 B. 停電 C. 旱災(zāi) D. 洪澇
5.We can infer from the passage that______________________.
A. Alfredo’s lights will be more and more popular.
B. nobody will buy Moser lights in the future.
C. Alfredo won’t repair machines any more.
D. Alfredo’s invention will bring him a lot of money.

According to the World Happiness Report, people who live in Denmark (丹麥) are the happiest in the world. Why? Because they know the secret to happiness—“hygge”. But what is “hygge”?
The Danish (丹麥的) word “hygge” (pronounced “hoo?ga”) is often translated(翻譯) in English as “coziness”. But coziness paints only part of the picture. It's also about spending peaceful time in a quiet environment with no calendar. It's about spending time alone or spending time with family.
Danish people are very good at “hygge”. For example, they create a “hygge” environment by burning candles in classrooms, kitchens, bedrooms, etc. According to some reports, Danish people burn more candles every year than people from any other European country.
However, “hygge” isn't just about creating a nice and warm environment; it is best enjoyed with family members and friends. With up to 17 hours of darkness every day in winter, Danish people spend more time indoors as a result, and they often get together for a meal or hot drinks, without the distraction(使人分心的事物) of technology or the stress of daily life.
Still can't understand what “hygge” is? If you're reading this in a comfortable chair, with a few candles around you, that sense of coziness you're feeling might just be “hygge”.
1.How do Danish people create a “hygge” environment?
A. By painting their houses.
B. By cleaning up bedrooms.
C. By burning candles.
D. By shopping alone.
2.With up to 17 hours of darkness every day in winter, Danish people________.
①play computer games till midnight
②spend more time indoors as a result

A. ①② B. ②④
C. ①③ D. ③④
3.In the last paragraph, the word “coziness” means “________” in Chinese.

C. 奢侈 D. 密切

A. when Danish people like to stay at home
