Energy independence. It has a nice ring to it. Doesn't it? If you think so, you
Energy independence. It has a nice ring to it. Doesn't it? If you think so, you're not alone, because energy independence has been the dream of American president for decades, and never more so than in the past few years, when the most recent oil price shock has been partly responsible for kicking off the great recession.

“Energy independence” and its rhetorical (修辞的) companion “energy security” are, however, slippery concepts that are rarely though through. What is it we want independence from, exactly?

Most people would probably say that they want to be independent from imported oil. But there are reasons that we buy all that old from elsewhere.

The first reason is that we need it to keep our economy running. Yes, there is a trickle(涓涓细流)of biofuel(生物燃料)available, and more may become available, but most biofuels cause economic waste and environmental destruction.

Second, Americans have basically decided that they don't really want to produce all their own oil. They value the environmental quality they preserve over their oil imports from abroad. Vast areas of the United States are off-limits to oil exploration and production in the name of environmental protection. To what extent are Americans really willing to endure the environmental impacts of domestic energy production in order to cut back imports?

Third, there are benefits to trade. It allows for economic efficiency, and when we buy things from places that have lower production costs than we do, we benefit. And although you don't read about this much, the United States is also a large exporter of oil products, selling about 2 million barrels of petroleum products per day to about 90 countries.

There is no question that the United States imports a great deal of energy and, in fact, relies on that steady flow to maintain its economy. When that flow is interrupted, we feel the pain in short supplies and higher prices, At the same time, we derive massive economic benefits when we buy the most affordable energy on the world market and when we engage in energy trade around the world.

61. What does the author say about energy independence for America?()

A.It sounds very attractive.

B.It ensures national security.

C.It will bring oil prices down.

D.t has long been everyone's dream.

62. What does the author think of biofuels?()

A.They keep America's economy running healthily.

B.They prove to be a good alternative to petroleum.

C.They do not provide a sustainable energy supply.

D.They cause serious damage to the environment.

63. Why does America rely heavily on oil imports?()

A.It wants to expand its storage of crude oil.

B.Its own oil reserves are quickly running out.

C.It wants to keep its own environment intact.

D.Its own oil production falls short of demand.

64. What does the author say about oil trade?()

A.It proves profitable to both sides.

B.It improves economic efficiency.

C.It makes for economic prosperity.

D.It saves the cost of oil exploration.

65. What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?()

A.To justify America's dependence on oil imports.

B.To arouse Americans' awareness of the energy crisis.

C.To stress the importance of energy conservation.

D.To explain the increase of international oil trade.

Part I Reading ComprehensionI have learned something about myself since I moved from Lon
Part I Reading Comprehension

I have learned something about myself since I moved from Long Island to Florida three years ago. Even though I own a home in Port St. Lucie just minutes from the ocean, an uncontrollable urge wells up to return to Long Island even as others make their way south. I guess I am a snowbird stuck in reverse. Instead of enjoying Florida’s mild winters, I willingly endure the severe weather on Long Island, the place I called home for 65 years.

I’m like a migratory bird that has lost its sense of timing and direction, my wings flapping against season.

So what makes me fly against the tide of snowbirds? The answer has a lot to do with my reluctance to give up the things that define who I am. Once I hear that the temperature on Long Island has dipped into the range of 40 to 50 degrees, I begin to long for the sight and crackling sound of a wood fire. I also long for the bright display o£ colors — first in the fall trees, and then in the limits around homes and at Rockefeller Center. Floridians decorate too, but can’t create the special feel of a New England winter.

I suppose the biggest reason why I return is to celebrate the holidays with people I haven’t seen in months. What could be better than sitting with family and friends for a Thanksgiving turkey dinner, or watching neighbors’ children excitedly open gifts on Christmas? Even the first snowfall seems special. I especially enjoy seeing a bright red bird settling on a snow-covered branch (My wife and I spend winters at a retirement community in Ridge, and I’m grateful that I don’t have to shovel.)

While these simple pleasures are not unique to Long Island, they are some of the reasons why I come back. Who says you can’t go home?

(1) What does the underlined word "snowbird" in Paragraph 1 refer to?()

A、A person spending winter in a warmer climate

B、A bird seen chiefly in winter

C、A person permanently living in a foreign country

D、A bird flying to the south in winter

(2)What’s the difference between Florida and Long Island?()

A、Winters in Long Island are milder

B、The snowbirds in Long Island are rarer

C、Weather in Long Island is severer

D、Long Island is nearer to the ocean

(3)What did the author miss most when he was in Florida?()

A、The colorful light display

B、The family gathering

C、The cold temperature

D、The winter landscape

(4) Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?()

A、The author enjoyed living in Florida

B、The author had a good time in Florida

C、The author owned a home in Florida

D、The author did not like mild weather

(5)What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?()

A、To praise the beauty and warmth of his hometown

B、To describe his dream to be a free bird

C、To explain the reasons for moving from his hometown

D、To express his feeling of missing his hometown
