Hello. I’m Jan from Mrs. Lake’s class. My class wants to work together to help the public. We think we have found a great way to do this. Last month we did a class project on the highways near our town. We learned about the Adopt-a-Highway Program. This program brings people together to pick up litter along the roads. We think it would be a great idea for all students in our school to join the program and adopt a highway.
Adopting a highway is not like adopting a pet. When a highway is adopted, only part of the highway is cared for by a group of people. The group agrees to work every week to keep its part of the highway clean. Each group gets its own sign that has the name of the group printed on it. The sign is put up at the side of the road. This sign lets drivers know who is keeping that area of the road clean.
The Adopt-a-Highway Program is a great way for people to help their environment look nicer. Also, the government does not have to send out as many road workers. This saves money. Finally, people may try harder to keep roads clean if they see people, especially teenagers like us, cleaning them up.
We will need helpers to care for our adopted highway. If you want to feel great and keep our roads clean，please come with your parents to the meeting next week. We will meet in Mrs. Lake’ room on Wednesday at 6:00 P.M. At the meeting, we will talk about which roads are the dirtiest as a result of people's unkind acts. Then we' ll try to pick an area to adopt and clean.
I look forward to seeing you at the meeting. Remember to keep our roads clean!
1.What is the purpose of this speech?
A. To introduce the traffic system.
B. To tell a story about adopting a pet.
C. To show drivers how to drive safely.
D. To encourage students to join the program.
2.What is the Adopt-a-Highway Program about?
A. Giving names to the highways.
B. Picking up litter along the roads.
C. Drawing pictures of highways.
D. Putting up signs near the roads.
3.What should the students do first if they want to join the program?
A. Go to a meeting on Wednesday.
B. Pick a spot to care for.
C. Write a letter to their parents.
D. Call Mrs. Lake next week.
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Adopt-a-Pet B. Ways to Protect the Environment
C. Adopt-a-Highway D. Volunteers on Roads

Black has long been praised for its ability to better women’s figures and suit every occasion. But the color has a side-effect—it ages the face.
While black does give the appearance of a slimmer figure by making the shadows less visible, wearing it next to the face brings out a negative effect. Black clothing can highlight （突出） dark lines under the chin, shadows around the eyes and wrinkles on the face. The effect can be as serious as making women feel exhausted, self-conscious and upset. Wrinkles and sunken areas appear deeper and more pronounced, meaning the effect is more obvious in older women.
Dark scarves, hats and high-collared coats are apparently particularly likely to emphasize aging features of the face. But fear not. The effect can be tempered by a splash of color around the neck—in the form of a scarf or a piece of jewelry—or a low neckline.
Famous actress Joan Collins is among the few who can get away with the side-effect. But those who should consider changing their dresses include many European stars. The majority of women who have what is known as a “warm” skin tone, based on yellow and gold colors, will not look young and healthy with black against their faces. Warm skins do not match well with black against their faces as it takes away all the golden glow that they have as a basic skin tone. Black looks for dark things on the face and highlights them, particularly as women age.
The good news for those who like black dress is that a simple test can help determine whether they can wear black well: Hold the color up against your face, stand in front of the mirror and look for dark lines under the chin, shadows around the eyes or lines on the face that are highlighted. If there are no dark areas or shadows, you can probably wear black close to your face and look great. Otherwise, change your ways.
1.According to the passage, wearing black clothes probably ________________.
A. makes the wearer less energetic
B. gives away the wearer’s age
C. darkens the wearer’s skin tone
D. makes the wearer feel confident
2.The underlined word “tempered” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by _______________.
A. observed B. ignored C. weakened D. measured
3.We can infer from the passage that _______________.
A. high-collared coats are not suitable for warm-skinned women
B. a woman from eastern Asia may not look young with black against her face
C. men with deep wrinkles would look unhealthy in black
D. Joan Collins has a warm skin tone
4.The black dress will be probably suitable for you on condition that there are no ___________.
A. wrinkles on your face
B. dark circles around your eyes
C. sunken areas that are highlighted
D. dark areas or shadows on the face
