One day when some government officials were rebuilding a house, they found a mouse hole in a corner and used smoke to make the mice inside the hole come out.

Everyone was puzzled, so they came nearer to take a look. They realized that one of the two mice was blind, and the other was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite his tail in order to pull the blind one with him to run away.

What do you think our life will be like in 2050? Some people are talking about it on QQ.

I think there won’t be any TV channels (频道) in 2050. People will be able to choose (选择) a programme from a “menu” and a computer will send the programme to the television. In 2050, we will be able to feel the things we see on TV with our hands. |

In 2050, there won’t be enough water. Some places will be drier and people will not be able to have enough food. There may be serious water shortage (缺乏). |

Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don’t agree with them.
Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources(资源), we are short of(缺乏) others, for example, fresh water(淡水). It is reported that we will have no coal(煤) or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.
In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps(水龙头) when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best. From the passage we know that some students often _______ in the school.
A. eat too much B. don’t work hard C. waste thingsWhich is not mentioned in this passage?
A. Fresh water. B. Forest. C. Coal. What may happen in 100 years?
A. We may still have enough oil.
B. We may still have enough coal.
C. We may have no coal or oil to use. Which of the following is right?
A. Waste brings problems.
B. Waste can bring no problem.
C. China is rich in fresh water. Which is the best title of this passage?
A. Stop WastingB. School life C. Waste in the School
