Yevgeny Yakut moved to the Russian capital, hoping to live better, but soon found himself one of the many homeless people in the city known for its housing shortage and high cost of living. But he thinks he has found a way out. “I was warming myself in a railway station when I saw a television report on bloggers earning money by making advertisements,” he tells the TV channel Moscow 360. A young passer-by got chatting to him about the idea, and agreed to be Mr. Yakut’s cameraman, using a smart phone to record his friend’s humorous stories of daily struggle to “find food, a place to sleep, and keep out of the way of the police”. So viewers could see how he lives in central Moscow without a home.
They upload the regular videos to YouTube, where Mr Yakut is hoping to attract enough subscribers (订阅者) to interest advertisers in his channel.

The popularity of the pair’s You Tube channel has impressed video-marketer Kirill Kalashnikov, who tells Moscow 360 that with some professional help, “this could be turned into a million subscribers within a year”. In the meantime , Mr Yakut says supporters can make donations through a Moscow drain pipe, where he hides his dollars in a deposit box made from a soft-drink bottle.

Plastic bags are a popular container in much of the world, but they are also a major source of pollution which need hundreds of years to break down, and as they do, tiny pieces can poison soil, lakes, rivers and oceans. So, environment experts urge people to reuse and recycle plastic bags.
Maryland artist Allita Irby just does so. It all starts with the morning newspaper, and the plastic bag that the paper comes in. The mixed media artist recognized its rich possibilities three years ago. “As I was taking the newspaper out, I felt the texture (质地) of these bags. I just looked down and realized it takes three to make a braid (发辫). I’ll just put a few main materials in just to make it strong enough.” Since then, Irby has been using plastic bags to create abstract lines in her art works.
Before using plastic bags in her pieces, Irby used natural materials like feathers, leather and dried plants, all of which contain elements that represent her Native American ancestry and identity, like her piece called “Navaho Bundles”. “I was making a hair style, a Navaho hair style when the hair was heavy and it was looped back on itself. I took the piece and looped it back onto itself and secured it with a tie.
Ms. Irby’s neighbors praise her ability to turn wastes into treasure. Some people, like Charlotte Hogan, asked the artist to teach them how to create art from used plastic bags. Aleta Meyer expressed surprise, “ I’ve never given any more thought to what to do with a plastic bag. This is definitely different.” Shirley Watts plans to show others her art. “I want to make a masterpiece that I can put in a frame and put it on my wall and then I know that I did it,” she said.
Allita Irby says anyone can do it and all you have to do is open your eyes and bring the outside in.
51. The f irst paragraph is written to offer _______.
A. the conditions of making plastics
B. the background of the story
C. the reason for using plastics
D. the importance of plastic bags
52. We can learn that Allita Irby ________.
A. will never use plastic bags herself
B. pays much attention to her hair style
C. was born in a Native American family
D. only uses plastics to make art works now
53. What do you know about Allita Irby’s art works before she used plastic bags?
A. They are similar to Navaho hair styles.
B. They are actually tools used in daily life.
C. They offer Irby the inspiration to recycle plastic bags.
D. They are made of natural materials.
54. What do Allita Irby, Charlotte Hogan, Aleta Mryer and Sjirley Watts have in common ?
A. They live in the same neighborhood.
B. They are all mixed media artists.
C. They are active in protecting the environment.
D. They learn art from the same master.
55. As for art works made from wastes, ________.
A. Watts follows Irby to make art works.
B. Meyer says she’ll never make plastic arts.
C. Irby thinks what it needs is to discover beauty.
D. Hogan thinks they are the best ones for churches.

A crow lived in a thick forest filled with many birds. The crow was very content with his carefree life until he saw a swan one day. The swan was flying over a lake. “This swan is so white,” he thought, “and I am so black. It must be the happiest bird in the world.”
He shared his thoughts with the swan. “Actually,” the swan replied, “I thought so too until I met a parrot. It had brilliant colors of red and blue. No other bird could be happier than the parrot.”
The crow went in search for the parrot, and found it rested on the top of an old rain tree. The parrot explained, “ I too was very happy until I chanced upon a peacock . My colors paled in comparison to the peacock’s. Its rich colors put my coat to shame.”
Curiosity defeated the crow, who was determined to look for the beautiful peacock. He finally found the peacock at the zoo. Hundreds of people gathered round to watch the peacock and its beautiful wings. After the crowd left, the crow rested itself onto a rock and said, “Dear peacock,” the crow said, “ You are so beautiful. Every day, peop le come just to see you. People either drive me away or avoid me when they see me. You must be the happiest bird on the planet.”
The peacock replied, “My beauty had me kept in this zoo. In the years I spent here, I often thought to myself that if I were a crow, I could be enjoying a carefree life outside. Then after many months of internal struggles, I come to realize that I need to learn to be happy in what I have instead of expecting what I do not have. I am happy because I’m satisfied with my life here.”

61. One possible version:
Dear Daniel，
I’m very sorry to hear that a conflict occurred between you and your mother because of your Internet addiction.
` In my opinion, you should apologize to your mother, as she has done nothing wrong to prevent you from Internet addiction. Although the Internet plays an important role in modern life, we can’t ignore its harm to us. Many students spend most of their time playing computer games or chatting aimlessly with others, which may not only result in poor health but also lead to decline in study as well as loss of communication in the real world.
As students, we should devote our energy to study, when available, you may as well walk outside with your friends or take some exercise to keep fit instead of playing online games, only in this way can you live and study happily and healthily.
Yours，
Li Jin
