　　Many businesses today use conferences as a means of discussing new plans of the company. As people are paying more attention to the environment and green problems, more businesses are looking for ways to reduce their negative effect on the environment. Many businesses do this by using Web conferencing.

　　Web conferencing is a technology that allows people to communicate more effectively over the Internet. It’s an easy way of hosting and attending conferences without having to leave the office. Each of the people involved in a Web conference will be posted an invitation to the conference with the time and date of the Web conference on it. When the conference is ready to begin, all participants (参与者) must sit at their computers and they will be connected over the Internet.

　　With Web conferencing all participants attend conference from the comfort of their own desks. Obviously, in doing this no fuel is used in traveling to and from a conference, and less work is taken up in attending a conference.

　　Any material to be used during Web conference is simply e-mailed to all the participants before the conference. Participants can then either choose to print material or read it on screen. This not only saves paper but also greatly reduces mailing costs for the business.

　　As a conference hall or business center isn’t being used, it means that the only power that is used is the power that is used by the participants’ personal computers. Similarly, conference organizers don’t have to arrange for food or overnight accommodation. All this means that less energy is used.

　　Often in business some companies actively choose to do business with other companies that do many things to reduce their negative impact on the environment. And Web conferencing helps you show other businesses that you are willing to work hard for the green cause.

　　31. What is the passage mainly about?

　　A. Ways of protecting the environment

　　B. Green benefits of Web conferencing

　　C. Ways of hosting a Web conference

　　D. haven’t enough money to hold a traditional conference.

　　33. The participants of a Web conference _____.

　　A. will be e-mailed an invitation before the conference.

　　B. are required to sit in an office together.

　　C. will receive many paper materials.

　　D. must have access to the Internet.

　　Many reasons can explain why football is so popular. All around the world, millions play the sport and many more like to watch it. Some would say that the simplicity of the game is the main reason for its popularity, but that can’t be true as, this way, marathons or races would be the most popular sports in the world. In fact, the most popular sport in the world is football.

　　The main reason for the popularity of any sport is the room for creativity inside the sport. Football has plenty of room for creativity as it enables players to use their bodies in unique ways to get hold of the ball and score while at the same time keeping the other team from scoring. In addition to this, the rules ensure that the game is clean and fair, thus encouraging new players to play it.

　　Another reason is that this game doesn’t require expensive equipment. All the kids in poor developing countries like playing it as all they need to play it is a ball and an empty playground, and that would ensure a quality time for a group of kids who want to enjoy their time. The Federation International de Football Association (FTFA) knows this fact and is always trying to keep the rules and regulations applicable for poorer countries.

　　For fans of the sport, it is very entertaining to watch the skills and talents of the players in professional matches. The outcome of a match can easily change in the dying moments of a game. Some matches are even better than watching a thriller, because you really have no idea what the result of the match will be.

　　35. From the first paragraph, we know that marathons and races _______.

　　A. are sports that are as simple as football

　　B. are sports that are simpler than football

　　C. are sports that people like watching most

　　D. are the most popular sports in the world

　　36 .We can learn from the text that _____.

　　A. football is popular mainly because of its simplicity

　　B. the rules of football make the game safe and simple

　　C. football gives players room for creativity

　　D. playing football can help poor kids earn money

　　37. This fact in the third paragraph refers to ______.

　　A. kids need balls and empty playground to play in

　　B. the equipment in developing countries is very cheap

　　C. kids in developing countries enjoy playing football

　　D. kids in developing countries don’t keep football rules

　　Visitors can find a small, old house called the O. Henry Museum in central Austin, Texas. William Sydney Porter(1862-1910)----better known as O. Henry, was one of America’s best loved writers of short stories. Beginning in 1893, he lived here. It was saved from destruction, moved, and turned into a museum in 1934. The museum is a good way to learn about the interesting life of him.

　　William Porter rented this house and lived with his wife and daughter for about two years. Many objects in the museum belonged to the Porters. Others did not, but are in the house to recreate the way it looked during their lifetime.

　　Porter worked at a pharmacy, farm, land office and bank. He also loved words and writing. The museum has special proof of Porter’s love of language---his dictionary. It’s said that he read every word in it. Porter started a small publication called “The Rolling Stone”. He wasn’t being published early on, so he published himself. His funny stories, poems, and drawings were published in the magazine. But it was too costly to continue for long, so he closed the project after about one year.

　　Other troubles would lead the Porters to leave Austin. Porter was accused of financial wrongdoing at the bank and lost his job. Fearing a trial, he fled the country. But he returned because his wife was dying. After her death, he faced trial and was found guilty. He served three and a half years in a federal prison in Ohio.

　　Porter would keep his time in prison a secret. But there was one good thing about it. It provided him with time to write. By the time of his release, he had published 14 stories and was becoming well-known as O. Henry.

　　Porter would later move to New York City and find great success there. He published over 380 stories in the last eight years of his life.

　　38. What is the author’s purpose of writing paragraph 3?

　　A. To attract more visitors to the O. Henry Museum.

　　B. To show the jobs O. Henry once did.

　　C. To show O. Henry’s early love of words and writing.

　　D. To introduce O. Henry’s publication called “The Rolling Stone”.

　　a. He was committed to prison.

　　b. He settled down in central Austin.

　　c. His wife died.

　　d. He started a small publication called “The Rolling Stone”.
