2.When I was nine years old,I never dreamed that the small vending machine(自動售貨 機)I had owned would turn me into a small business owner.Wanting to inspire his daughter's business sense,my dad brought home a vending machine he had purchased from a friend.Set-ting it down in front of me in our living room,he asked in all seriousness, "Do you want to start a business?" I said yes.
I owned 15 vending machines by the time I left high school,with all of the profits going toward my college fund.In addition to being a great bonding experience for my family,I couldn't tell you how many skills I learned from starting and developing my own business that helped me gain responsibility.I learned that not every experience in life led to the comforting encouragement:Well,you were tried.You should face bravely all kinds of difficulties.
Understanding both personal and professional finances is one of the most important life lessons to learn-the earlier,the better.I had to be fearless and confident-learning these skills at a young age saved me from speaking with difficulty through presentations later in life.Truly understanding what you're selling displays confidence and reliability,as does truly believing in it.Comprehending the ins and outs of your product and business shines through when speaking with clients though rejection happens all the time.
Throughout the unbelievable experience of running my own business in my childhood,I've learned valuable skills that help me in my school,job and personal life.I believe in the value of customer service.I go after clients and opportunities and understand that sometimes things don't go my way.With the help of my parents and customers who supported me,I grew up as a young entrepreneur with skills to keep for the rest of my life.

3.The world is getting greener.That's according to Robert Mike.He has been mining data collected by an orbiting NASA camera that monitors green vegetation on the earth's surface,day by day.He showed that the amount of our planet's land surface covered by green leaves increased these years.Robert Mike was able to find what caused leaf cover to increase or decrease.In some places,change in leaf cover actually resulted from weather and climate changes.The growing season is getting longer in some temperate areas,and the rising carbon dioxide levels may be producing bigger,leafier plants.
One large area of Brazil lost plants. "I personally checked the data,and that's because of drought," Mike says.The most unusual changes were the result of human decisions in China and India though.Both countries have been getting a lot greener.
Molly Brown,a geographer,has seen this greening up close. "These are really good examples of how policy can really come into play," she says.Brown says the greening of India comes from a huge expansion of irrigated agriculture:Instead of having just crops when it's raining,they also have a whole six months of cropping and greenness when it's not raining.
This version of greening isn't really so great for the environment though.The irrigation drains(排出)groundwater:Vegetation is wiped away at harvest time and the extra fertilizer farmers use releases greenhouse gases.
In China,though,about half of the new leaf cover that Mike detected appears to be the result of a huge reforestation effort.It's a government-sponsored attempt to prevent terrible dust storms that resulted from earlier deforestation. "They are really doing a good job," Brown says. "They have a large and complete program of tree growing,tree planting and tree maintenance."
(1)What did Robert Mike get from the data?
A.The amount of carbon dioxide.
B.The extent of global warming.
C.The conditions of weather change.
D.The causes of leaf cover change.
(2)What does the underlined phrase "come into play" in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Make a difference.
B.Come to an end.
C.Play a trick.
D.Lose track.
(3)What is the author's attitude towards the way of greening in India?
A.Confused.
B.Doubtful.
C.Unconcerned.
D.Supportive.
(4)How did China become greener according to the text?
A.By planting more trees.
B.By using fertilizer to grow crops.
C.By making full use of groundwater.
D.By developing irrigated agriculture.組卷:0引用:2難度:0.7
