　　 When I was sixteen, I left school and went to work in a butcher’s shop. The manager was a young man, only two years older than I, but he was not honest. When people asked for good meat, he would sell them something bad. Sometimes, he did not give enough change, and people did not notice that.

　　   One day, just before Christmas, we decided to stop working earlier because we had sold out all our meat, except one small turkey. When I was going to close the door, a woman rushed in and said that she wanted a big turkey. The manager tried to sell her the small one. “It’s too small.” She said. The manager said he would get another one and went to the back of the shop with the turkey. I went after him to see what he was going to do. He pulled the small turkey to make it look bigger, and then came back and said, “Here’s a bigger one.”

　　  Jack angrily threw the papers on my desk."What''s wrong?" I asked.

　　  "Next time you want to change anything, ask me first," he said.

　　How dare he treat me like that, I thought. I had changed one long sentence, and corrected grammar – something I thought I was paid to do.It''s not that I hadn''t been warned. "He's responsible for two different secretaries leaving the firm (公司)," one secretary told me.

　　  One day, his behavior reduced me to tears. I walked angrily to his office, "What?" he said.

　　  "Jack, I 've never had anyone speak to me that way. It's unprofessional and it's wrong for me to allow it to continue, " I said. "I want to make a promise. I will be a friend. You deserve that." I said. "Everybody does." I moved the chair smoothly and easily and closed the door behind me.

　　   There were no other episodes(插曲)from Jack. Every time I saw him in the hall, I smiled at him. After all, that's what friends do. A few weeks later, I discovered I had breast cancer(乳腺癌)。 And it was very serious. One day, the door to my small hospital room opened and there stood Jack. I waved him in and over to my bed. He put a bundle(一束花) beside me. "Tulips"(郁金香）he said. I smiled, not understanding. He cleared his throat. “If you plant them when you get home, they will come up next spring. I just want you to know that I think you will be there to see them when they come up.”"Thank you!" I whispered. Jack replied: " You are welcome. Next spring you will see the colors I picked out for you."

　　   I have seen those red and white tulips every spring for ten years now. This past September the doctor said my cancer was gone. Just at the moment when I was praying for the right word, a man with few words said all the right things. After all, that's what friends do.

　　   In recent years, the Earth has been getting warmer. Average temperatures have risen. Possibly this is natural, but probably we are causing it. Modern people use a lot of electricity and drive a lot of cars. This puts carbon dioxide（二氧化碳） into the air and helps to make the planet warmer. When we hear this news, we may smile. No one likes long, cold winters, but, unluckily, there are many bad points about a warmer Earth.

　　  First, the ice at the Poles melts and becomes water. The result is that the sea-level（海平面） becomes higher. Low islands will disappear. Cities on the coast will be in danger from the sea. Will Tokyo, Bangkok, Hong Kong and Shanghai become like parts of Holland（荷兰） – lower than the sea? Possibly we will have to build walls to keep the water out. Typhoons will become even more dangerous and frightening.

　　  Sadly, the second point is that storms will become bigger. Super-typhoons will be born in the Pacific and do great damage to East Asia. The same will happen to the Eastern United States.

　　  As the weather changes, some places that now have rain will become dry. The farmers will not be able to grow plants. Maybe some dry places will become wet – we don’t know, but we will soon find out, and the change will cause many problems. There might be wars because of it.

　　50. What will happen to Low islands when the Earth gets warmer and warmer?

　　A.They will melt and become water. B.They will not exist.

　　C.They will become higher. D. They will keep out the water.

　　51. Which of the following sentences is NOT true?

　　A.Shanghai will possibly build walls to prevent the water, like parts of Holland.

　　B.The farmers will not be able to grow plants because of the dry weather.

　　C.Electricity puts carbon dioxide（二氧化碳） into the air.

　　D.The warmer the Earth is getting, the higher the average temperature is.

　　52. Which is the best title of this passage?

　　   A. The Earth Is Getting Warmer

　　   B. Global（全球的） Warming Problems

　　   C. We Made the Earth Warmer

　　   D. How to Protect the Earth

　　                                  D
