With alarming regularity, we read about oil tankers having accidents near land and the terrible consequences of the oil spills(泄露) on people, nature, and the environment．
Millions of dollars have been used in developing special chemicals to help dismiss the spills and to clean up the animals, beaches, and land spoiled by the oil．Unfortunately, when many of these chemicals are used, more damage is caused to the environment, especially to lives in the sea．
Of all today's environmental disasters, an oil spill may actually be one of the least serious．Although oil is poisonous, it is a natural material．In the end, it breaks down naturally．There are, of course, long-term effects, but it is usually more serious in the short term．
Nature by itself works better than chemical materials, but when there is a spill, we demand that governments act immediately with as much hi-tech knowledge as possible．In 1967 the tanker Torrey Canyon sank off the Scilly Isles n ear the coast of England and spilled 120,000 tons of oil into the ocean．If you go there today, you will find it hard to see any sign that it ever happened．
Governments seem to accept the risk of transporting millions of tons of oil by ship every day so that we can fill up our cars and drive around and cause even more environmental damage．Interestingly, the biggest companies in the world produce cars, and the next biggest supply the gasoline to make them run.
We should be thinking more about reducing our dependency on oil．Governments should be encouraging research into new technologies, such as cars run by solar power, electricity, hydrogen, and so on．Much of this research has, in the past, been held back by the oil, gas, and coal．
If the world's millions of cars were 10% more efficient —and the industry could easily produce cars at least twice as efficient, we would need many fewer tankers crossing the oceans each year．If this happened, the risks of oil spills would be reduced, and the air we breathe would be cleaner and fresher, too．
What is the passage mainly talking about?
A. Oil spills pollution． B. What oil pollution is．
C. Oil tanker accidents. D. How to reduce oil pollution.
How does the author support the idea that oil spills are not as serious as people
believe?
A. By giving a description． B. By making an argument．
C. By giving an example． D. By drawing a diagram．
What does the underlined word "risk" in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A. Transportation depending more on oil．
B. Poisonous oil breaking down naturally．
C. Millions of tons of oil spilling into the sea．
D. More environmental damage being caused．
Which suggestion is made for reducing oil tank accidents according to the passage?
A. We should build safer tankers in the near future．
B. We should develop new technologies to cut oil use．
C. Tankers should not be allowed to sail near the coastlines．
D. Countries should build more oil pipelines under the sea．

I want to talk about the economy．Not "the economy" we hear about endlessly in the news each day and in politicians' speeches．I want to talk about the real economy, the one we live in day by day．
Most people aren't particularly interested in "the economy"．"Share prices are flying high; interest rates are soaring; the Dow Jones Index closed sixty-three points down on 8472．35．" We hear this and subconsciously switch off．
Notice that "the economy" is not the same as the economy, "The economy" is what men in suits play with to make vast personal wealth．The economy is where the rest of us live on a daily basis, earning our living, paying our taxes, and purchasing the necessities of life．
We are supposed to be benefiting from all the advantages of a well-off society．So why do we feel tired and stressed? We have no time for anything other than work, which is ridiculous given the number of labor-saving devices in our lives．Our towns become more and more crowded．We poison our air and seas, and our food is full of chemicals．There's something wrong here．If times were truly good, then you may think we'd all feel optimistic about the future．Yet the majority of us are deeply worried．More than 90 percent of us think we are too concerned about ourselves and not concerned enough about future generations．
The term "economic expansion" suggests something desirable, but expansion simply means spending more money．More spending doesn't mean that life is getting better．We all know it often means the opposite - greed, crime, poverty, pollution．More spending merely feeds our whole economic system, which is based on production and consumption．Unless money keeps circulating, the economy breaks down．If we don't keep consuming, the whole system goes into stalemate（僵局）．
How do we break the cycle and make some changes? We need to become far more aware of the results of our actions．We buy clothes that are made in sweat shops by virtual slaves in poor parts of the world．We create mountains of waste．We demand cheap food, mindless of the fact that it totally lacks taste and is produced using chemicals that poison the land．
The consumption culture makes us unaware of the effect of our own behavior．Our main problem is not that we don't know what to do about it．It is gathering the desire to do it．
【小題1】According to the author, which one belongs to the real economy?
| A．The Dow Jones Index． |
| B．Increases in interest rates |
| C．Skyrocketing share prices |
| D．Shopping in a supermarket |
| A．people are benefiting from a well-off society |
| B．the future generation is a big concern for most people |
| C．people still feel much pressure despite labor-saving devices |
| D．the majority of people are optimistic about the future |
| A．It guarantees a better life for us． |
| B．It may lead to some social problems． |
| C．It will stop the circulation of money． |
| D．It has only brought desirable effects． |
| A．call on us to change our behavior |
| B．suggest a solution for over-consumption |
| C．make a distinction between two economies |
| D．inform us of the effects of economic expansion |

The right to pursue happiness is issued to us all with our birth, but no one seems quite sure what it is.
A holy man in India may think 
that happiness is in himself. It is in needing nothing from outside himself. If wanting nothing, he lacks nothing. We westerners, however, are taught that the more we have from outside ourselves, the happier we will be, and then we are made to want. We are even told it is our duty to want. Advertising, one of our major industries, exists not to satisfy these desires but to create them---and to create them faster than any man’s money in his pocket can satisfy them. Here, obviously someone is trying to buy the dream of happiness and spending millions upon millions every year in the attempt. Clearly the happiness-market is not running out of customers.
I doubt the holy man’s idea of happiness, and I doubt the dreams of the happiness-market, too. Whatever happiness may be, I believe, it is neither in having nothing nor in having more, but in changing --- in changing the world and mankind into pure states.
To change is to make efforts to deal with difficulties. As Yeats, a great Irish poet once put it, happiness we get for a lifetime depends on how high we choose our difficulties.
It is easy to understand. We even demand difficulty for the fun in our games. We demand it because without difficulty there can be no game. And a game is a way of making something hard for the fun of it. The rules of the game are man-made difficulties. When the player ruins the fun, he always does so by refusing to play by the roles. It is easier to win at chess if you are free, at your pleasure, to cast away all the rules, but the fun is in winning within the rules.
The same is true to happiness. The buyers and sellers at the happiness-market seem to have lost their sense of the pleasure of difficulty. Heaven knows what they are playing,
but it seems a dull game. And the Indian holy man seems dull to us, I suppose, because he seems to be refusing to play anything at all.
The western weakness may be in the dreams that happiness can be bought while eastern weakness may be in the idea that there is such a thing as perfect happiness in man himself. Both of them forget a basic fact: no difficulty, no happiness.
【小題1】Who shares the same idea of happiness with the author?
| A．The Indian holy man | B．The great Irish poet Yeats |
| C．Advertisers | D．The buyers and sellers at the happiness-market |
| A．It means a place in which people can buy things happily |
| B．It means a market which lacks happy customers |
| C．It means a pure state for the world and mankind |
| D．It means a market where people try to buy happiness with money. |
| A．The Indian holy man is much happier than westerner. |
| B．The westerners understand happiness better than the Indian holy man. |
| C．There is no fun without playing by the rules |
| D．Both the eastern weakness and western weakness are the same. |
