Switching public spending from “grey” projects such as roads and airports, to “  21  ” schemes such as parks, tree planting and vegetables gardens, would not only   22  the government billions of pounds, improve health, and cut climate emissions(排放物),   23   it would create jobs and make British cities more attractive.
The analysis comes from two groups of government advisers, Natural England and the Commission for Architecture and the Built Environment, and is supported by   24  from other countries. It shows that  25  cuts are made in those areas that add to pollution, waste and ill health, and money is invested   26   in projects that save energy, improve health and reduce waste, the benefits are seen quickly.
For instance, the £10.2 billion budgeted by central government for   27   building in Britain this year will increase traffic and emissions and leave the public purse to clean up the pollution and waste. Just half of that money would pay for a new park in every local authority. Equally, the £1.28 billion   28   for widening the M25 by a single lane would benefit drivers by perhaps a few seconds a journey, but it would buy and maintain more than 3 million new street trees.
Government figures show that road traffic has increased 25% in the past 15 years, at the same time as obesity and public health costs have soared. Research also shows that in the place where people have direct   29   with the environment via animals, plants or landscapes, they are more   30  to be mentally and physically healthy. Hospital patients with views of trees rather than of brick walls stay in hospitals for far less time.

There is a small shop about 200 meters from where I live that sells groceries, meat and other basic necessities. About 10 years ago, there was a beggar who would go into the shop every day and ask the owner for a 36 . The owner, 37 he would love to help, simply didn’t have any jobs available, so he kept 38 the man’s request.
This situation continued 39 for a few months, until the owner 40 to give the homeless man a job which 41 sweeping outside the shop. Every single day from 5 am, the homeless man was there doing the very 42 he could for the 43 , even though it did earn him some pennies. 44 , the owner saw how good a job the man was doing and gave him a job working 45 a cashier. He was watched closely to make sure that he didn’t 46 any of the money received from the sales. He was still homeless, after all. The homeless man did a/an 47 job as a cashier for over 2 years, and did such a good job that he was promoted to 48 the finances for the whole shop.
To my 49 , this was the arrangement up until 2 years ago, when the owner 50 . In his will, he only had one 51 , to give the whole shop to the now stable, “homeless” man. Now, I could walk into that shop and see him working as hard as 52 , with his own business that is still 53 and active 10 years after getting his job as a sweeper.

I used to believe in the American Dream, which meant a job, a mortgage, credit cards, success. I wanted it and worked toward it like everyone else, all of us 51 chasing the same thing.
One year, through a series of unhappy events, it all fell 52 . I found myself homeless and alone. I had my truck and $56. I 53 the countryside for some place I could rent for the 54 possible amount. I came upon a shabby house four miles up a winding mountain road over the Potomac River in West Virginia. It was 55 , full of broken glass and rubbish. I found the owner, rented it, and 56a corner to camp in.
The locals knew nothing about me, but slowly, they started teaching me the 57 of being a neighbor. They dropped off blankets, candles, and tools, and began sticking around to chat. They started to teach me a belief in a 58 American Dream—not the one of individual achievement but of neighborliness.
What I had believed in, all those things I thought were 59 for a civilized life, were nonexistent in this place. 60 on the mountain, my most valuable possessions were my 61 with my neighbors.
Four years later, I moved back into 62 . I saw many people were having a really hard time,
63 their jobs and homes. I managed to rent a big enough house to 64a handful of people. There are four of us now in the house, but over time I’ve had nine people come in and move on to other places. We’d all be in shelters if we hadn’t banded together.
The American Dream I believe in now is a shared one. It’s not so much about what I can get for myself; it’s about 65 we can all get bytogether.

Every night, my mother would come to my room, lean down and push my long hair out of the way, then kiss my forehead.

She didn’t say anything in 29 .But never again did my mother close out my day with that _30 expression of her love.
Time after time, with the 31 years, my thoughts returned to that night. I'm not a little girl any more.Mom is in her mid - seventies, and those hands I 32 thought to be so rough are still doing things for me and my 33 .
Now, my own children are 34 Mom no longer has Dad.It was late on that Thanksgiving Eve, as I went to sleep in the bedroom of my youth, a familiar hand35 before stealing across my face to brush the 36 from my forehead.Then a kiss, ever so _37 touched my brow.In my 38 , thousands of times, I 39 the night my young voice complained.40 Mom's hand in my hand, I said how41 I was for that night.I thought she'd remember, as I did,_42 Mom didn't know what I was talking about.She had forgotten—and43 —long ago.

The quality of drinking water in Shanghai will meet European Union standard by 2010 and, a decade later, citizens in Shanghai will drink the best water in the world.
These were the goals set out by the Shanghai Water Authority. With the city’s population expected to increase only slightly and the economy to boom by 2020, Chen Yin, and official with the water authority, said Shanghai’s water consumption will not increase from its present amount.
Zhang Yue, director of the Urban Construction Division under the Ministry of Construction, said, “Shanghai is the first city in the country to publicize these ambitions. They will not be easy to achieve.”
He said water saving will help keep the sustainable development of China’s economy.
Saving one cubic meter of water means saving the city’s infrastructure(基础设施)costs by 10,000 Yuan. Last year, Shanghai saved 300 million cubic meters of water either from readjustment of industrial structure or the employment of new technology.
“The aim is to arouse public awareness of the seriousness of water shortages,” Chen said. “The abundant surface water and amount of rain of the city are so misleading that they result in improper use of water.”
Shanghai lacks drinkable water. The Huangpu River, which supplies 80 percent of the city’s drinkable water, is nearing exhaustion.
The city, therefore, has been exploring new sources from the Yangtze River and growing forests along it to conserve quality water.
Besides penning regulations, the authority is popularizing technology among the public to efficiently cut the amount of water used.
At present, the city has 600,000 family toilets, each using 13 liters of water per flush. These are to be renovated(整修)to use only 9 liters of water per flush.
The authority is renovating the first 200 toilets for households – at a cost of 40 Yuan each.
In three years, all the toilets will be renovated, which saves the city nearly 15 million Yuan every year in water conservation.
Another task the city is engaged in is the treatment of sewage(污水)to improve the water environment.
At present the city can only treat 44 percent of its daily 5.04 million tons of waste water. To meet the total demand, 27 more sewage treatment factories are to be established with an estimated investment of 18 billion Yuan.
People in Shanghai get their daily water mainly from now.

A.the underground B.the rain C.the Yangtze River D.the Huangpu River

A.the renovating of family toilets will save plenty of water B.about half of waste water has been treated already C.advanced technology makes people use water as much as possible D.there is plenty surface water and large amount of rain at present

A.make people’s living more convenient B.improve people’s living standards C.ease employment pressure D.meet the total demand of water

A.a, b, c, d B.b, c, e, f C.b, c, d, e D.a, b, e, f

A.the boom of economy will need a larger amount of water in the future B.citizens today in Shanghai drink the best quality of water in the world C.not everyone today in Shanghai is aware of water shortage D.all the family toilets will be renovated to save water within 3 years

One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods from door to door found that he only had one dime left. He was hungry so he decided to 36 for a meal at the next house.
However, he lost his nerve37a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked 38 so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it39 , and then asked, “How much do I owe you?”
“You don’t owe me anything,” she 40 . “Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a __41 .” He said, “Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart.” As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger 42 , but it also increased his faith in God and human race. He was about to give up before this point.
Years later the young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled(难住). They finally sent her to the big city, where specialists can be called43 to study her rare disease. Dr. Howard Kelly, now 44 , was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light 45 his eyes. Immediately, he 46 and went down through the hospital hall into her room.
47in his doctor’s gown he went in to see her. He48 her at once. He went back to the consultation room and49 to do his best to save her life. From that day on, he gave 50__attention to her case.
After a long51 the battle was won. Dr. Kelly 52 the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to her room. She was afraid to open it because she was 53 that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill caught her 54 . She read thesewords…
“Paid in full with a glass of milk.”
(Signed) Dr. Howard Kelly
Tears of joy flooded her eyes as she 55 silently. “Thank you, God. Your love has spread through human hearts and hands.”
