Linda Evans was my best friend—like the sister I never had. We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, horseback riding.
When I was 13, my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters, and we saw each other on special time—like my wedding (婚礼) and Linda’s. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back, stamped “Address (地址) Unknown. ” I had no idea how to find Linda.
Over the years, I missed Linda very much. I wanted to share (分享) happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.
One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman — Linda’s married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans,” I thought, but I still wrote to her.
She called as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs Tobin!” she said excitedly, “Linda Evans Wagman is my mother. ”
Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years, laughed and cried and caught up on each other’s lives. Now the empty place in my heart is filled. And there’s one thing that Linda and I know for sure: We won’t lose each other again! 36. The writer went to piano lessons with Linda Evans _______.

Sometimes people call ours a “throwaway society”. That means that we’re always throwing away old things and buying new ones. Many times, you no longer need something, but someone else may just need to buy one. For example, if your baby doesn’t like his toy car any longer, why not give it to a nearly family who has a little kid? That’s one less plastic toy car that they need to buy. It’s also one less plastic toy that needs to be produced, packaged and shipped to the toy store.
Here are some other ways to help save resources for the society: ★Use the other side of the paper.
★Use rechargeable (可再充电的) batteries for your electric toys, MP3 players, cell phones, and cameras.
★ Choose reusable travel cups instead of disposable (一次性的) paper or plastic cups. ★Take your own cloth shopping bags when you go shopping. ★ Drink tap water instead of buying bottled water.
And there are some things you can exchange with your friends, for example, books, toys, even clothes. It's a way for everyone to get something new without spending any money and without throwing many things away.
40. The underlined word \指代) _______.
A. our society B. our old things C. our life D. our throwaway things 41. According to(根据) the writer, if we give a second - hand （二手的）toy car to a
neighbor kid, we can____.
A. buy another new one B. help toy business develop C. make the family very thankful to us D. help save resources for the society 42. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. We should buy things that can be reused in our daily life. B. We can exchange some things with others for further use. C. It's good for us to throw away old things and buy new ones.
D. We are supposed to (应该) give the things we no longer need to our neighbors. 43. What should we do in our daily life after reading the passage?
A. Try not to throw as old things as we can.
B. Use as many disposable(一次性的) things as possible.
C. Drink bottled water even though there is tap water around.
D. Buy everything we need instead of exchanging them with others.
