①A tree has roots. People have roots too. If you get to the root of a problem. you will solve it. It’s the same thing with words. Dig deeply into a big, unfamiliar word and you will understand where it came from.
②As readers, especially those reading in a second language, we need to deal with the text as if we were detectives (侦探), the first thing to do when meeting a new and difficult word is to judge the situation, to look at everything that is known and see if it helps us to understand what it means.
③As you know, prefixes and suffixes, and you will have the word building power. But root words are the key. Take time to learn a few of these and then put them in your memory.
④Let’s look at one common root word used in English. “Alter” from the Latin word means “other”. When you meet this root word, you know that the bigger word has something to do with “other”. Examine the word “alternate”. Can you find the Latin root in it?
• If you and your friend like to eat out, first you pay and the other pays the next time. You are alternating paying.
• If you go to the movies on alternate Saturdays, you go on one Saturday, but not the other Saturday.
• If you have no alternative, you have no other choice.
⑤Learn as many root words as you can in the language you are studying. Then use your “rooting for words” skills. Like any new skill, practice and hard work make a big difference.
27. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The situation. B. The crime scene.
C. Everything that is known. D. A new and difficult word.
28. If Jim and Lily go to the movies, which one below is “alternating paying”?
A. They each pay half.
B. Jim pays every time.
C. They take turns to pay.
D. Their parents pay for them.
29. How does the author explain his ideas about root words?

B. By listing some numbers in details.
C. By giving the readers an example.
D. By asking and answering a question.
30. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?
(① = paragraph 1 ③ = paragraph 2,…)
A. B. C. D.
D
“Fast fashion” has been mentioned so often in the past two years. It means low-cost quickly-made clothing that copies the latest high-quality fashions. Unlike the traditional clothing industry where designers plan their new lines every season, fast fashions are made and sold whenever new fashions appear. They are put in shops and online quickly to create a high demand (需求).
However environmentalists are getting more worried about the influences of fast fashion on the environment. More than 100 billion items of such clothing are made every year. This expected to grow by 60 percent by 2030. The fast fashion business model is having adverse influence on the environment. Many of the clothes end up in landfills (垃圾填埋场) and are not recycled. The chemicals used to make the clothes are bad for the environment. These cause health problems for people working in clothes factories. It is reported that even children make many of these clothes.
The way people are buying clothes is adding to the problem of clothing waste. Many years ago people went to stores and tried clothes on. People took more time and thought more carefully before they bought clothes. They also wore them for longer. Today, people order cheap clothes on the Internet so often and if they don’t like them, they send them back or throw them away. Some people say this is causing a throwaway society. Some people buy clothes and never even wear them. The German media company Deutche Welle wrote, “Every year in Europe, four million tons of clothing ends up in the dustbin. Less than one percent of this is recycled. “It seems that the fashion industry wasting much.”
31. Which of the following is a feature of fast fashions?
A. They appear every season. B. They are easy to make.
C. They are of high quality. D. They are sold only in online shops.
32. What does the underlined word “adverse” in Para. 2 mean?
A. hopeful B. useful C. careless D. harmful
33. What can we learn from Para. 3?
A. People once bought clothes without thinking twice.
B. People often buy expensive clothes from the Internet.
C. The way people buying clothes causes some clothing waste.
D. Over forty thousand tons of clothing in Europe are recycled.
34. What was the writer’s feeling about the fast fashion?
A. Amazed. B. Worried. C. Surprised. D. Uninterested.
35. What’s the best title for the text?
A. The Meaning of Fast Fashion
B. The Popularity of Fast Fashion
C. Problems with Fast Fashion

A special show on “Folk (民间) Houses in China” took place in the RCF Experimental School in Beijing on Sept. 17. Around 100 models of folk houses made by students were on show, including homes from canal (运河) towns in the area south of the Yangtze River, Xizang and other places. Students created their beautiful models by completing their own DIY jobs.
Gao Ruidi,13, from Jiangsu
In the area south of the Yangtze River, people live beside the river. I love people’s lifestyles there. So I decided to make a group of buildings to show this, including a river with a bridge, classic houses and a pavilion (亭子). When I made it, the pavilion kept falling over. To fix this, I finally changed from using plasticine (橡皮泥) to wooden sticks (木棍). At last, I made it. With this experience, I saw the beauty of traditional folk houses.
Wu Maolin,13, from Anhui
I found Ma Tou Walls (马头墙) in the region south of the Yangtze River interesting because they looked like staircases (楼梯). Before making my model, I looked up why they were built this way. In these areas, houses are built close together, so if one house catches fire, it could quickly spread (传播) to others. To prevent this, people build Ma Tou Walls that rise above the roofs. While making the model, I used mortise and tenon joints (榫卯结构) to make the house stronger. By doing this, I knew ancient people were so clever. And it also helped me learn more about traditional Chinese culture.

①A tree has roots. People have roots too. If you get to the root of a problem. you will solve it. It’s the same thing with words. Dig deeply into a big, unfamiliar word and you will understand where it came from.
②As readers, especially those reading in a second language, we need to deal with the text as if we were detectives (侦探), the first thing to do when meeting a new and difficult word is to judge the situation, to look at everything that is known and see if it helps us to understand what it means.
③As you know, prefixes and suffixes, and you will have the word building power. But root words are the key. Take time to learn a few of these and then put them in your memory.
④Let’s look at one common root word used in English. “Alter” from the Latin word means “other”. When you meet this root word, you know that the bigger word has something to do with “other”. Examine the word “alternate”. Can you find the Latin root in it?
• If you and your friend like to eat out, first you pay and the other pays the next time. You are alternating paying.
• If you go to the movies on alternate Saturdays, you go on one Saturday, but not the other Saturday.
• If you have no alternative, you have no other choice.

“Fast fashion” has been mentioned so often in the past two years. It means low-cost quickly-made clothing that copies the latest high-quality fashions. Unlike the traditional clothing industry where designers plan their new lines every season, fast fashions are made and sold whenever new fashions appear. They are put in shops and online quickly to create a high demand (需求).
However, environmentalists are getting more worried about the influences of fast fashion on the environment. More than 100 billion items of such clothing are made every year. This expected to grow by 60 percent by 2030. The fast fashion business model is having adverse influence on the environment. Many of the clothes end up in landfills (垃圾填埋场) and are not recycled. The chemicals used to make the clothes are bad for the environment. These cause health problems for people working in clothes factories. It is reported that even children make many of these clothes.
The way people are buying clothes is adding to the problem of clothing waste. Many years ago people went to stores and tried clothes on. People took more time and thought more carefully before they bought clothes. They also wore them for longer. Today, people order cheap clothes on the Internet so often and if they don’t like them, they send them back or throw them away. Some people say this is causing a throwaway society. Some people buy clothes and never even wear them. The German media company Deutche Welle wrote, “Every year in Europe, four million tons of clothing ends up in the dustbin. Less than one percent of this is recycled. “It seems that the fashion industry wasting much.”
31. Which of the following is a feature of fast fashions?
A. They appear every season. B. They are easy to make.
C. They are of high quality. D. They are sold only in online shops.
32. What does the underlined word “adverse” in Para. 2 mean?
A. hopeful B. useful C. careless D. harmful
33. What can we learn from Para. 3?
A. People once bought clothes without thinking twice.
B. People often buy expensive clothes from the Internet.
C. The way people buying clothes causes some clothing waste.
D. Over forty thousand tons of clothing in Europe are recycled.
34. What was the writer’s feeling about the fast fashion?
A. Amazed. B. Worried. C. Surprised. D. Uninterested.
35. What’s the best title for the text?
A. The Meaning of Fast Fashion
B. The Popularity of Fast Fashion
C. Problems with Fast Fashion
D. Health problems with Fast Fashion
【答案】31. B 32. D 33. C 34. B 35. C

A special show on “Folk (民间) Houses in China” took place in the RCF Experimental School in Beijing on Sept. 17. Around 100 models of folk houses made by students were on show, including homes from canal (运河) towns in the area south of the Yangtze River, Xizang and other places. Students created their beautiful models by completing their own DIY jobs.
Gao Ruidi,13, from Jiangsu
In the area south of the Yangtze River, people live beside the river. I love people’s lifestyles there. So I decided to make a group of buildings to show this, including a river with a bridge, classic houses and a pavilion (亭子). When I made it, the pavilion kept falling over. To fix this, I finally changed from using plasticine (橡皮泥) to wooden sticks (木棍). At last, I made it. With this experience, I saw the beauty of traditional folk houses.
Wu Maolin,13, from Anhui
I found Ma Tou Walls (马头墙) in the region south of the Yangtze River interesting because they looked like staircases (楼梯). Before making my model, I looked up why they were built this way. In these areas, houses are built close together, so if one house catches fire, it could quickly spread (传播) to others. To prevent this, people build Ma Tou Walls that rise above the roofs. While making the model, I used mortise and tenon joints (榫卯结构) to make the house stronger. By doing this, I knew ancient people were so clever. And it also helped me learn more about traditional Chinese culture.
