   We are now living in the modern society. Most of the energy we use for heating, lighting, transportation and manufacturing (制造业) comes from fossil (化石) fuels. These are carbon-based fuels from oil, coal and natural gas. When we burn these fuels we release heat which p_____ the energy.
There are three main disadvantages to using these fuels. Firstly, they are causing climate problems because of the G____ Effect. When we burn fossil fuels they produce carbon dioxide which causes global warming. Secondly, when we have used up all our coal, oil and natural gas, we will have n____ left to burn. Thirdly, they are not very efficient. The internal combustion engine (内燃机) that we use in most cars, trucks and buses, for example, is only about 14% efficient.
Scientists are working on another fuel—hydrogen. There are a couple of advantages to using hydrogen as a fuel. Firstly, because two-thirds of the e____ surface is water and water is made of hydrogen and oxygen. There is an almost unlimited supply of hydrogen. Secondly, burning hydrogen does not cause global warming. Thirdly, it is much more efficient than carbon-based fuels.
Unfortunately there are problems with hydrogen at the present time: there is the problem of separating (分离) it from water c____, and there is the difficulty of storing it. It can be stored under pressure but high pressure tanks are far from safe. It can also be stored as a liquid but only at extremely low temperatures. It seems likely, therefore, that there will have to be a completely new technology before hydrogen replaces fossil fuels. S_____ these problems is an urgent (急迫的) matter. Although China, India and Australia have huge amounts of cheap coal, and there are still l_____ oil and gas reserves(储藏量) elsewhere, the effects on the planet’s climate will be bad if they are used.

If this happens, the best way is to clean your eyes by using cold water.        . For example, wearing sunglasses can serve as a great way to protect your eyesight from UV rays (紫外线) in the strong sunlight.
Some foods will do good to your eyesight. Remember that vitamins A, C and E are good for eyes. Try to eat food groups that have these vitamins.         . If a person exercises regularly and eats the right kind of food, his eyes will stay in good condition for a long time.
All above are natural ways of eye care that help us keep healthy eyes.          . In a word, eye care is very important, no matter how old a person is.

A. You must also try your best to protect your eyes from harmful things B. Being happy all the time can be helpful to a person’s eyesight, too C. And you should do eye exercises because exercise protects your eyesight, too D. Naturally eye care should be put in a number one place

Sometimes I really wonder whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy making money. They don’t act in the romantic ways that I read about in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too much to say.
One day, my mother was sewing a quilt (缝被子). I quietly sat down beside her and     her.
“Mom, I have a question for you,” I said, breaking the   .
“What?” she asked, still doing her work.
“Is there love between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very     voice.
She stopped her work and raised her head with surprise in her eyes. But then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt. I was very     then because I thought I had hurt her.
It seemed like a very long time before my mother started to speak again. “Susan,” she said thoughtfully, “look at this thread (线). Sometimes it    , but most of it disappears (消失) in the quilt. The thread makes the quilt strong and durable. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can     be seen anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there. Love is inside (在里面).”
I listened carefully but I didn’t understand     the next spring. My father had a stroke (中风) and     walk by himself anymore. After that, my mother     my father walk outside every  day. Along the country road, there were many beautiful flowers and trees. The sun gently glistened through leaves. They two, hand in hand, walked slowly. To me, that was    picture in the world — that’s a picture of love.
They still don’t say “I love you” to each other. But I know they have deep love for each other. I used to think love meant flowers and sweet kisses. But actually, love is just a thread in the quilt.

Great white sharks have become well known in a bad way, for being scary.      . However, you are more likely to be hit by lightning than attacked by a great white shark.
One reason why people don’t like great white sharks is that they are huge. They grow to be nearly 21 feet long and can weigh up to 5,000 pounds. That is about two cars long! But the size is not typical. Most great whites are smaller, about 10 to 15 feet long.      .
Great whites are called apex predators（捕食者）because they are at the top of the food chain. They have no predators and aren’t that picky about what they eat. Great whites are known to eat fish, squid, other sharks, otters, turtles, dolphins, whales, seals, and sea lions.    . Great whites also eat carrion, which is the remains of dead animals floating（漂浮）in the water.
   . They have 3,000 teeth, and each is up to 3 inches long! Their very sharp teeth are shaped like triangles and have rough edges that tear into things. Great whites don’t even chew their food. They just swallow it down.        .
But, like other sharks, great whites don’t intentionally（主动地）eat or attack humans. So swim without fear.

A．That’s still longer than one car, though

B．Those last two kinds are their favourite food

C．Movies and popular stories make them scary

D．A big meal can satisfy a great white shark for about two months

E. Another reason why people fear great whites is their frightening teeth
