You'll get a 10-cent discount, and it's one less paper cup to end up in a dustbin. The store won't create more waste when they throw away a cup.\nWAY 2: Turn off your computer. If you don't do that, your PC is still using energy. Turning off a monitor for 40 hours a week may only save $ 5 a month, but it reduces CO\nby 750 pounds.\nWAY 3: Reuse plastic bags. Instead of throwing away 100 billion plastic bags a year, try and get a second, third, or tenth use out of them. Better yet, next time you shop, try a reusable bag.

Take an aspirin or eat bird brains. Do you want beautiful skin? Use skin cream or eat pearls. Is your hair turning gray? Color your hair or eat black rice.\n\"Eat bird brains, pearls, and black rice?\" some people ask. \"How strange!\" But for many Chinese people, bird brains, pearls, and black rice are not strange things to eat. Instead, they are good medicines.\nFood that people use for medicines is called medical food. The Chinese have eaten medicinal food and spices for centuries. Ginger, for example, is a common spice in Chinese cooking. Ginger gives food a nice flavor. The Chinese began to use ginger many years ago. They used ginger not because it tasted good. They used ginger because it was medicinal. Ginger, they thought, was good for the digestion. It also helped people who had colds. Pepper and garlic, too, were probably medicines a long time ago.\nSome people don't believe that food and spices are good medicines. They want to buy their medicine in drugstores, not in supermarkets. Other people want to try medicinal food. They say, \"Maybe medicinal food can't help me. But it can't hurt me, either.\"\nPeople can try medicinal food at a Chinese restaurant in San Francisco, California. The restaurant serves medicinal food.

Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads in their free time.\nIn fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you are studying hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of you; When you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; When you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. All your happiness is always around you.\nHappiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can't be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you should not always say you are poor and you have bad luck.

The villagers asked him to leave, for they feared he wanted them to give him food. They told him that there was no food. The traveller explained that he didn't need any food and that, in fact, he was planning to make a soup to share with them instead. The villagers watched suspiciously as he built a fire and filled a pot with water With great ceremony , he pulled a stone from a bag, and dropped the stone into the pot of water. After a moment, he smelt the soup and shouted with excitement, \"How delicious the soup is!\" As the villagers began to show interest, he mentioned how good the soup would be with just a little cabbage in it. A villager brought out a cabbage to share. This episode repeated itself until the soup had cabbage, carrots, onions, and beets--indeed, a full pot of soup that could feed everyone in the village was ready. This story describes when there are not enough resources , humans will store things. We do not want to share. The story of stone soup helps us realize that, in doing so, we often prevent ourselves and everyone else from having a feast .The meaning of this story goes far beyond food. We keep to ourselves ideas, love, and energy, thinking we will be richer, but in fact we make the world, and ourselves, poorer.

The villagers asked him to leave, for they feared he wanted them to give him food. They told him that there was no food. The traveller explained that he didn't need any food and that, in fact, he was planning to make a soup to share with them instead. The villagers watched suspiciously as he built a fire and filled a pot with water With great ceremony , he pulled a stone from a bag, and dropped the stone into the pot of water. After a moment, he smelt the soup and shouted with excitement, \"How delicious the soup is!\" As the villagers began to show interest, he mentioned how good the soup would be with just a little cabbage in it. A villager brought out a cabbage to share. This episode repeated itself until the soup had cabbage, carrots, onions, and beets--indeed, a full pot of soup that could feed everyone in the village was ready. This story describes when there are not enough resources , humans will store things. We do not want to share. The story of stone soup helps us realize that, in doing so, we often prevent ourselves and everyone else from having a feast .The meaning of this story goes far beyond food. We keep to ourselves ideas, love, and energy, thinking we will be richer, but in fact we make the world, and ourselves, poorer. The traveller was able to see that the villagers were holding back, and he had the ability to inspire them to give. In this way, they created a large meal that none of them could have created alone. Are you like one of the villagers? If you come forward and share your gifts, you will inspire others to do the same. The reward is a feast that can feed many.\n\n:\nThe writer mainly wants to tell us that .\n\n:\nA storing things in hard times is human nature\nB a good leader is very necessary in hard times\nC skills are needed to inspire people to share with others\nD sharing is more important than keeping things to oneself\n\n:\n", "assistant": "D"}]} {"conversation_id": 370, "category": "race_middle", "conversation": [{"human": "Read the following passage and questions, then choose the right answer from options, the answer should be one of A, B, C, D.\n\n:\nThere is lots of junk in space .Some of it is from rockets.

What's the difference between fog and smog?\nAccording to scientists, fog is made up of tiny drops of water and also ice particles during very cold conditions.

A report from Beijing Children's Hospital shows that from December 5 to December 11, 2013, half of the patients in the hospital came for respiratory problems.\nAir problems and environmental protection have become a care for the whole nation.\nPremier Li Keqiang made his last Government Work Report on March 6, 2014. The report said that the government should work hard to prevent pollution and give people a healthy living environment.\nIt calls on people to make full use of energy and resources and cut down on energy use.\n'We should give people hope through our actions,' Li said.\n\n:\nFrom Li Keqiang's report, we learn that _ .\n\n:\nA the environment has improved a lot since Li was in office\nB many people have breathing problems because of the air pollution\nC the air pollution problem is the government's task\nD the government will try its best to solve the air pollution problem\n\n:\n", "assistant": "D"}]} {"conversation_id": 478, "category": "race_middle", "conversation": [{"human": "Read the following passage and questions, then choose the right answer from options, the answer should be one of A, B, C, D.\n\n:\nI am a Chinese boy.

Probably not. The excitement of living is that you don't know what's coming.\nSure, it's hard to see uncertainty in such active light when you're out of work, or when you feel like you're failing. But uncertainty is really another word for chance.\nWhen Allison graduated from Harvard, she had chances all over the place but had no idea what she wanted to do. She took a job in consulting ,but she knew she wouldn't stay there. She took the GRE and scored so high that she was able to increase her income by teaching students. Still, she didn't think she wanted to go to graduate school . Allison knew she wasn't doing what she wanted, but she didn't know what she wanted.\nShe worried. All her friends were going to graduate school or starting their own businesses. She was lost and felt that she would never find anything out. After six years, Allison, by having a plan in mind, got married, moved to the Midwest, and used her consulting experience to get a great job. Allison realized that she spent her years finding her way: time well spent, and time we must all take if we're being honest with ourselves. The only way to lead an interesting life is to face uncertainty and make a choice. Otherwise your life is not your own - it is a path someone else has chosen. Moments of uncertainty are when you create your life, and when you become who you are. Uncertainty usually begins with a job hunt, but it doesn't end there. Every new role we take on means another round of uncertainty. Instead of fearing it, you should find some ways to deal with uncertainty\n\n:\nWhat troubles Allison after graduation?\n\n:\nA She couldn't find a well-paid job.\nB She had no money to start a business.\nC She was not sure what to do.\nD She didn't score high enough for graduate school.\n\n:\n", "assistant": "C"}]} {"conversation_id": 521, "category": "race_middle", "conversation": [{"human": "Read the following passage and questions, then choose the right answer from options, the answer should be one of A, B, C, D.\n\n:\nIf you could see a movie of your life before you lived it, would you want to live it? Probably not. The excitement of living is that you don't know what's coming.\nSure, it's hard to see uncertainty in such active light when you're out of work, or when you feel like you're failing. But uncertainty is really another word for chance.\nWhen Allison graduated from Harvard, she had chances all over the place but had no idea what she wanted to do. She took a job in consulting ,but she knew she wouldn't stay there. She took the GRE and scored so high that she was able to increase her income by teaching students. Still, she didn't think she wanted to go to graduate school . Allison knew she wasn't doing what she wanted, but she didn't know what she wanted.\nShe worried. All her friends were going to graduate school or starting their own businesses. She was lost and felt that she would never find anything out. After six years, Allison, by having a plan in mind, got married, moved to the Midwest, and used her consulting experience to get a great job. Allison realized that she spent her years finding her way: time well spent, and time we must all take if we're being honest with ourselves. The only way to lead an interesting life is to face uncertainty and make a choice. Otherwise your life is not your own - it is a path someone else has chosen. Moments of uncertainty are when you create your life, and when you become who you are. Uncertainty usually begins with a job hunt, but it doesn't end there.

Now this is not considered cool in town and the word \"train-spotter\" in Britain is related to \"geek\" or \"nerd\" (someone who seems very ridiculous). But is this reputation really deserved?\nFirst of all, let's see what train-spotting is. It is said that there are some 100,000 train spotters in the UK. Exactly as the title suggests, they spot trains, that is, they stand in train stations, look at the number of each train that leaves and arrives and write it down. The eventual aim is to have seen every train in the country.\nBeing crazy about railways and trains is not modern and it dates back to 1804. As the number of trains grew and they got faster and faster, so did the interest in them grow? Is this any stranger than people who love cars?\nSo, what do you need to be a train-spotter? Well, all you really need is a pen or pencil and a notebook to write down the train numbers. Other equipment includes hot tea in a thermos, a camera and some sandwiches for those long afternoons spent on train platforms when you don't want to risk the delights of railway station food.\nIt's interesting to note that despite the \"bad name\" of train-spotting, there have been famous railway lovers in history, such as Alfred Hitchcock, who filmed them regularly, especially The 39 Steps. There is evidence, too, that being a train-spotter is not necessarily a strange phenomenon in Britain.\nOne glance at the US train stations should be enough to convince you that train-spotters there are alive and well. In America, they try to call rail lovers \"train-fans\" and talk of \"train-fanning\". Don't let this fool you--these people are train spotters and there are a lot of them.

make a difference in someone's life just by being with him or her-----a summer school for children with autism . \nBy helping the kids read or do math, I am not only teaching important skills but also helping them feel like any other kid. There are many wrong ideas about autism. The kids I work with can think and feel. They need help only in certain areas.\nOf course, each kid is special. For example, some kids like to draw, and others like to sing.\nAt the school, the kids learn through about 20 activities. These activities can help them learn skills they will need later in life.\nThe very first day I volunteered, a boy came up to me, put his hand on my shoulder and said \"Hello.\" From then on, I knew I could make a difference.\nAnother boy loved to have me read books that can help him learn to read. Sometimes he could be encouraged to read a few words or sentences. Finally, one day during reading practice, he read nearly 220 words himself!\nSummer school is also a time for fun.

There are many wrong ideas about autism. The kids I work with can think and feel. They need help only in certain areas.\nOf course, each kid is special. For example, some kids like to draw, and others like to sing.\nAt the school, the kids learn through about 20 activities. These activities can help them learn skills they will need later in life.\nThe very first day I volunteered, a boy came up to me, put his hand on my shoulder and said \"Hello.\" From then on, I knew I could make a difference.\nAnother boy loved to have me read books that can help him learn to read. Sometimes he could be encouraged to read a few words or sentences. Finally, one day during reading practice, he read nearly 220 words himself!\nSummer school is also a time for fun.

The monitor is too low, which pulls your head and neck forward and down and your back may feel hurt.\nThat's OK if you use your laptop for a short time. But if you use one for hours without stopping - as do millions of college students, business travelers, telecommuters, video-gamers and growing numbers of office workers - your body may feel hurt. Ergonomics experts have warned about laptop problems for years. But people still like laptops better than the desktops. And they use laptops anywhere - in bed, on the floor - in all kinds of positions.\n\"How can a mouse or a keyboard hurt you?\" says Thomas Caffrey, the founder of Myofactors LLC, \"Wrong positions can be bad for your body. As time goes by, a wrong position can lead to pain in the neck, shoulders, back and arms, as well as headaches.\"\n\n:\nAccording to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?\n\n:\nA When you use a laptop, you should put your monitor at eye height.\nB Laptop computers sold more than desktops this autumn.\nC To keep healthy, you should use laptop computers.\nD Business travelers often use the laptop computers for a long time.\n\n:\n", "assistant": "C"}]} {"conversation_id": 823, "category": "race_middle", "conversation": [{"human": "Read the following passage and questions, then choose the right answer from options, the answer should be one of A, B, C, D.\n\n:\nCome and see the India elephants and the new tigers from America.

Sometimes the weather gets bad. Accidents can happen easily and quickly.\nOne family once had an accident. A big fish swam under their boat and bit holes in it. Sea water came in and the boat soon went down. Luckily these people had another small boat----a lifeboat, so they all got into the lifeboat. They lived in the boat for many days. They ate and slept, and always hoped. At last people in a ship saved them.\nHow do people live in a very small lifeboat for a long time? They must be strong in every way, they must have a hope, and they must have a strong desire to live. People cannot drink seawater. If they drink a lot of sea water, they will quickly die. They must catch rainwater and drink it. They must also catch fish and birds for food. Lifeboats do not often carry cookers. So people can not cook their food in the lifeboats.

Students are still taught to read notation so they can recite compositions that they would never listen to on their MP3 players or play with friends. Playing music enriches life. The question is: Why do schools teach music in a way that _ so many young people rather than catch their imagination? Can we do a better job of using the power of music to get kids excited about school?\nThe experience of an organization called Little Kids Rock suggests the answer is yes -- if we change the way music is taught. Little Kids Rock has helped music programs in over a thousand public schools and served 150,000 children. The organization has given 30,000 free instruments out, mainly guitars, and trained 1,500 teachers to run music classes in which students quickly experience the joys of playing their favorite songs, performing in bands , and writing their own music.\nThe key to Little Kids Rock is that it teaches children to play music the way many musicians learn to play it -- not by notation, but by listening, imitation and meaningful experimentation. \"The knowledge you need to get started playing rock music is very limited,\" explains Dave Wish, the founder of Little Kids Rock. \"In high school, my friend Paul taught me a couple of chords and my life was changed forever. On the first day of class, Little Kids Rock teachers place guitars in the hands of their students and get them practicing chords that will enable them to play thousands of songs. The kids decide what songs they want to learn and the class is off and running. Their progress is surprising. Within a year, eight and nine-year-olds are playing musical instruments, and giving concerts, even performing their own songs.\nOne of the biggest advantages that music offers is the ability to encourage students who are otherwise bored by school. \"I've had students start coming back to school because of this program,\" said Adkison Thomas, who heads up music for the Dallas Independent School District. He added, \"One of the best things is that the teachers discover a new side of their students. They see kids become successful who weren't before.\"\n\n:\nHow did Little Kids Rock help the school?\n\n:\nA By writing music for kids.\nB By playing kids' favorite songs.\nC By making instruments for school.\nD By training teachers for music classes.\n\n:\n", "assistant": "D"}]} {"conversation_id": 992, "category": "race_middle", "conversation": [{"human": "Read the following passage and questions, then choose the right answer from options, the answer should be one of A, B, C, D.\n\n:\nMusic education hasn't changed much since the 1970s.

The organization has given 30,000 free instruments out, mainly guitars, and trained 1,500 teachers to run music classes in which students quickly experience the joys of playing their favorite songs, performing in bands , and writing their own music.\nThe key to Little Kids Rock is that it teaches children to play music the way many musicians learn to play it -- not by notation, but by listening, imitation and meaningful experimentation. \"The knowledge you need to get started playing rock music is very limited,\" explains Dave Wish, the founder of Little Kids Rock. \"In high school, my friend Paul taught me a couple of chords and my life was changed forever. On the first day of class, Little Kids Rock teachers place guitars in the hands of their students and get them practicing chords that will enable them to play thousands of songs. The kids decide what songs they want to learn and the class is off and running. Their progress is surprising. Within a year, eight and nine-year-olds are playing musical instruments, and giving concerts, even performing their own songs.\nOne of the biggest advantages that music offers is the ability to encourage students who are otherwise bored by school. \"I've had students start coming back to school because of this program,\" said Adkison Thomas, who heads up music for the Dallas Independent School District. He added, \"One of the best things is that the teachers discover a new side of their students. They see kids become successful who weren't before.\"\n\n:\nLittle Kids Rock is successful because _ .\n\n:\nA it encourages kids to experience music\nB it helps kids learn from great musicians\nC it allows kids to decide how to learn music\nD it offers musical programs all over the country\n\n:\n", "assistant": "A"}]} {"conversation_id": 993, "category": "race_middle", "conversation": [{"human": "Read the following passage and questions, then choose the right answer from options, the answer should be one of A, B, C, D.\n\n:\nMusic education hasn't changed much since the 1970s.

I hope you can understand it.\nI love studying in London and I have many new friends. Most of them are my classmates. From Monday to Friday, we have English, math, physics and P. E. in the morning. I like English and physics, because they're interesting. I don't like math. It's too boring. At noon, I have to have lunch at school because my home is far from my school. We usually have two classes in the afternoon--art and politics. We finish our classes at 3:30 p. m. After school, my friends and I always play football on the playground.

They made lots of experiments, but failed again and again. It was Eadweard Muybridge who finally succeeded. He was the first photographer to try this successfully. But how did he make it? It was an interesting story.\nBack in 1872, people didn't know exactly whether all four of a horse's hooves left the ground at the same time when it was running. A gentleman called Leland Stanford made a bet with his friend about it. Most people believed that a horse always had one hoof on the ground, or it would fall over. But Stanford didn't think so.\nAt that time, it was hard to know who could win the bet, because a horse's legs move so fast that it is impossible to tell just by looking. So they needed a way to record the movement of a running horse. Then Stanford offered $25,000 to the famous photographer, Muybridge, to help find the answer. In the beginning, Muybridge failed to get clear images, but he didn't give up. He continued to improve his cameras. In 1878, after many experiments, he managed to get a sequence of 12 photos. One of them clearly showed that all four of the horse's hooves were off the ground at the same time.
