　　It is said that another acre of the word’s forest will be destroy forever. Why is this happening? There are two reasons –land and wood. In countries the trees have been cut down because the land was needed for animals or crops. In other parts of the world the trees are cut down because their wood is used by local people for firewood or it is used for building. But many don’t know that in most places the trees won’t be replaced. The soil in the forests is very thin, but it is protected by the trees. When the trees are cut down, the soil is washed away by the rain or blown away by the wind. Soon nothing can be grown on it. The forest becomes a desert. Then more land will be
　　needed, and more trees will be cur down.
　　When the forest is destroyed, it isn’t only the trees that are lost—the homes of millions of animals and plants are destroyed, too. All kinds of animals are in danger—fish, reptiles, birds, mammals, insects, and shellfish—as well as thousands of plants.
　　Who is to blame for this? The answer is simple: all of us. There just too many people in the world. The world’s population is now six billion. Of course, it’s very easy to blame the local people. We don’t cut down trees. They do. But the products are bought by people like you and me—wood houses, beds, tables, chairs, papers… Why are forests being destroyed? Just look round. You are probably using it right now.

　　Never go into a supermarket hungry! This is a good piece of advice. If you go shopping for food before lunchtime, you’ll probably buy more than you to. Unfortunately, however, just this advice isn’t enough for shopping these days. Modern shoppers need an education in how and how not to buy thing at the store and decide if you check the weekly newspapers ads. Find out the items that are on sale and decide if you really need these things. In order words, don’t buy anything just because it’s cheaper than usual! Second, never let “New and Improved!” or “All Natural” on the front of a package influence you. Instead , read the list of contents on the back. Third, compare prices: that is, you should examine the of both different brands(品牌) and different sizes of the same brand.
　　Another suggestion for shoppers is to buy ordinary items instead of famous brand. Ordinary items in supermarkets come in plain packages. These products are cheaper because producers don’t spend much money on packing or advertising. However, they are still of high quality. In the same way, in buying clothes, you can often find high quality and low prices in brand that are not famous. Shopping in discount clothing stores can help you save a lot of money. Although these stores aren’t very attractive, and help usually do not have individual dressing rooms, not only are the price low, but you can often find the same famous brands that you find in high—priced
　　department stores.
　　Wise shoppers read magazine ads and watch TV commercials(商业广告)， but they do this with one advantage: knowledge of the psychology behind the ads. In other words, will –informed shoppers watch for information and check for misinformation. They ask themselves questions: Is the advertiser hiding something in small print at the bottom of the page? Is there any real information in the commercial, or is the advertiser simply showing an attractive image? With the answer to there questions, shoppers
　　can make a choice.
　　54. The author gives ＿＿＿suggestions to the shoppers in the passage.
　　A. there      B. four      C. five      D. six
　　55. We can learn from the passage that ＿＿＿.
　　A. ordinary items are not so attractive because of the lower price
　　B. we can’t buy items with words like “New and Improved” or “All Natural”
　　C. the advertisers are always showing misinformation in the commercials
　　D. the quality of ordinary items can be as good as that of famous brands
　　56. The author’s main purpose of writing the passage is to advise shoppers ＿＿＿.
　　A. to buy ordinary items instead of famous brand
　　B. how to buy ordinary items in supermarkets
　　C. how to make a proper decision while shopping

　　Many strong and out-of-control emotions are recognized as an illness. People who are always very sad have depression(抑郁症); those who worry a lot have anxiety.
　　But what about anger problems ?  Anger is largely viewed as a secondary emotion—one caused by other emotions. People are thought to angry because they are sad, anxious or stressed. In the past, many doctors didn’t accept the idea that anger could be a problem all on its own.
　　Today, though, a growing number of mental health experts think that anger is a serious problem that needs its own treatment.
　　How to tell the difference between “normal” anger and “anger problem” is difficult. After all, everyone gets really mad from time to time. Experts point out a few ways.
　　Disordered anger, as it is something called, tends to be of greater intensity(强度). It takes very little to set off a person with an anger problem, and their responses(反应) are very strong. An example: While most people would get upset if a driver cut them off, someone with disordered anger might try to chase down the car and force it off the road.
　　And in case of disordered anger, the person gets angry more frequently
　　and his/her anger last longer. For most people, angry feelings disappear quickly. But people with anger problems often stay angry for days, weeks or even years: their feeling of angry don’t disappear over time.
　　Consequences are also important to consider: Disordered anger often damages people’s lives. “It interferes(干扰) with people’s relationships and their jobs,” says Raymond Chip Tafrate, a US psychologist. “Even their health is affected.”
　　Anger clearly increases the risk of certain health problems, as many studies have shown. “When a person is angry, their heart beats faster and their blood pressure goes up,” says Howard初三毕业及统一练习英语试卷第7 页（共13页）
