(C)

London’s Chinese community(社区)dates hack to the 18th century.When a small number of Chinese sailors moved to the city to work in Limehouse，east London.As time went on，other Chinese people came to this area and Limehouse began to be known as‘Chinatown’.However，

London’Chinese community，remained very small for many years;at the start of the 20th century，there were just 545 Chinese people in Britain.

After the Second World War，many farmers in Hong Kong lost their jobs and came to London.As Limehouse had been almost destroyed during the war，they settled(定居)in a different area—a part of central London near Leicester Square.This area is now what Londoners call Chinatown.

At first，the new immigrants(移民)found it difficult to get jobs.In the 1950s，however，a small Chinese restaurant opened in London.Many British people visited it and said that Chinese food was wonderful! Suddenly，Chinese restaurants and take-aways started opening in every part

of the city.Instead of too little work，the new Chinese immigrants now found that they had too much! They worked as cooks，managers or waiters.Most of them enjoyed their lives and arranged their friends and relatives to join them from overseas.

As time went by，London’s Chinese community became more and more successful.The sons and daughters of the original restaurant workers studied and worked very hard.And most went on to get highly paid jobs.Many Chinese families left Chinatown and moved to more expensive outskirts.Chinatown，however，is still as lively as ever.

四、任务型阅读.(每小题2分，共10分)

Waste can be seen everywhere in the school.Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom.They say they can afford these things.But I don’t agree with them.

Waste can bring a lot of problems.Although China is rich in some resources(资源)，we are short of others，for example，fresh water.It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to use in 100 years.So if we go on wasting our resources，what can we use in the future and where can we

move? Think about it.(3)I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day.

Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.

In our everyday life，we can do many things to prevent waste from happening，for example，turn off the water taps when we finish washing，turn off the lights when we leave the classroom，try not to order more food than we need，and so on.Little by little，everything will be changed.
