        Imagineyou are taking a walk on the beautiful beach. Just then, your feet step oversomething and you hear a crack (噼啪声) —an empty plastic bottle. Things like thisare happening more often because of sea rubbish.

        Studiesshow that 80%of all the waste is from the land. The waste is mainly plastics (塑料制品) which are really hard todegrade (降解). So the rubbish will remain there for along time. Some of the pollution is caused accidentally. For example, about10,000 product-filled boxes are lost at sea every year from business ships.Sometimes people just throw things into the water from boats or land. Manylarge rubbish areas are formed in the North Pacific Ocean.

       Thankfully, the situation isn't ignored (忽视). Groups like the National Oceanic and AtmosphericAssociation (NOAA) are taking action to help clean the sea. Since 2006, 76projects have cleared out 3,814 metric tons (公吨) ofrubbish from the sea. Methods of rubbish cleaning include using machines toremove (移除) the waste away from the surface of seawater. Besides, special nets are set by the mouths of rivers to stop therubbish before it reaches the sea. If everyone does his part, sea rubbish seemslike a problem that can be solved.

    (1)、The sea waste made of ___________will remain for a long time.
    A、paper B、wood C、plastic D、cotton
    (2)、In the second paragraph we can know___________ are also some of the sea

    rubbish.

    A、special cleaning nets B、large factory machines C、passing business boats D、lost product-filled boxes
    (3)、In order to ___________, some projects are done by different groups.
    A、stop people from fishing B、fight against the sea pollution C、develop trade in the seafood D、produce new kinds of plastics
    (4)、___________, special nets are set by the mouths of rivers.
    A、To prevent the rubbish reaching the sea B、To clean the surface of the dirty sea water C、To build more sea rubbish collecting areas D、To make people care about the environment
    (5)、According to the passage, we can imagine the future of the sea will be ___________.
    A、terrible B、dark C、quiet D、hopeful

        How green are you? Do you know how to be green?

        We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our environment. Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you.

        Reduce

        Reduce means "use less". Don't waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new, think whether it is really necessary—or maybe the old one will be just as good! When we buy things, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many things from abroad.

        Reuse

        Reuse means "use again". Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time. We should look after them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don't use a paper cup or a paper bag. It's better to use a china (瓷器) cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.

        Recycle

        Recycle means "change things into something else". Though it takes energy to change something into something else, it's better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your neighbourhood and take part in recycling programmes. We should also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.

        So please remember these three words: reduce, reuse and recycle.

    (1)、What is the passage about?
    A、How to produce things. B、How to burn things. C、How to help others. D、How to be green.
    (2)、Which of the following is RIGHT?
    A、Don't waste things. B、Always throw away old things. C、Always buy new things. D、Buy too many things from abroad.
    (3)、Why is it better to use a china cup and a lunch box?
    A、Because you can burn them. B、Because you can use them again. C、Because you can throw them away. D、Because you can change them into something else.
    (4)、To protect the environment, we should remember these three words: __________.
    A、waste, reuse and recycle B、repair, burn and recycle C、reduce, reuse and recycle D、reduce, waste and recycle
    (5)、The passage may come from __________.
    A、a menu B、a dictionary C、a storybook D、a magazine

        Many people know that rubbish is a big problem on planet Earth. What many people don't know is that junk (垃圾) has become a problem in outer space too.

        According to BBC News, there are more than 22, 000 pieces of space junk floating around the earth. Andtheseare just the things that we can see from the surface of the earth by telescopes (望远镜). There are also millions of smaller pieces of junk that we can't see.

        Objects, like bits of old space rockets or satellites, move around the planet at very high speeds, so fast that even a very small piece can break important satellites or become dangerous to astronauts. If the tiniest piece of junk crashed into a spaceship, it could damage the vehicle.

        To make things worse, when two objects in space crash, they break into many smaller pieces. For example, when a U. S. satellite hit an old Russian rocket in 2009, it broke into more than 2,000 pieces, increasing the amount of space junk.

        To reduce additional space junk, countries have agreed that all new space tools can only stay in space for 25 years at most. Each tool must be built to fall safely into the earth's atmosphere after that time. In the upper parts of the atmosphere, it will burn up.

        Many scientists are also suggesting different ways to clean up space junk. In England scientists are testing a metal net that can be fired into space junk. The net catches the junk and then pulls it into the earth's atmosphere to burn up. The Germans are building robots that can collect pieces of space junk and bring them back to Earth to be safely destroyed.

        "The problem is becoming more challenging because we're sending more objects into space to help people use their mobile phones and computers," says Marco Castronuovo, an Italian space researcher.

        "The time to act is now. The longer we leave the problem, the bigger it will become," he says.

    (1)、What does the underlined word "these" in Paragraph 2 refer to?
    A、Telescopes. B、Satellites. C、Pieces of space junk. D、BBC News reports.
    (2)、Why is space junk considered a problem?
    A、Because it burns up after it re-enters the atmosphere. B、Because it often stops the view of telescopes on Earth. C、Because it could force new space tools to travel at slower speeds. D、Because it may crash into other space tools, causing damage or death.
    (3)、Countries want future space tools to be able to fall back into the earth's atmosphere so that__________.
    A、the tools can be reused later B、the tools don't become space junk C、the earth's atmosphere can stay clean D、the effects of space flight can be studied
    (4)、How do the Germans plan to deal with space junk?
    A、By catching it with nets. B、By using robots to collect it. C、By burning it in the earth's atmosphere. D、By sending it farther away from the earth.
    (5)、In which section of the newspaper would you probably read this article?
    A、Environment. B、Local News. C、Education. D、Fashion.

        A new rubbish sorting system (垃圾分类系统) has been put into use in Fangchengyuan Community in Beijing. Local people not only sort their rubbish, but also put QR codes (二维码) on it.

        "When the rubbish is collected and the codes are seen, I will get reward points to exchange for small gifts and even some money," one of the local people told reporters. "It's really creative and encouraging."

        This smart system has been carried out in 350 communities in Beijing. The capital of China has joined a list of cities in the country that take action to support rubbish sorting. For example, Shenzhen and Shanghai have made laws to punish people and organizations for not sorting rubbish correctly.

        China produces quite a lot of rubbish every year. Much of the rubbish is buried (填埋) in soil or burned without being sorted. Landfills (填埋场) take up a lot of land and have a risk of polluting the soil and water nearby. And burning rubbish can produce harmful gases. Through rubbish sorting, we can reduce the use of landfills and air pollution.

        What's more, rubbish sorting saves resources, which could bring economic benefits (经济利益). For example, a ton of waste paper can be reused to make about 850 kg of paper, saving 17 trees and 50 percent of water. Because of the benefits, some countries have developed successful sorting systems.

        Japan has a strict and detailed system. When people throw away a water bottle, the cap, the wrapper (包装纸) and the bottle itself have to go into three different bins. Every year, families receive special rubbish sorting timetables and directions from their local governments. They are advised to follow the timetables and directions when they throw away rubbish.

        In Australia, every family is provided with three rubbish bins—the red lid (盖子) bin for "general waste" like food and plastic bags, the yellow lid bin for "recycling" like steel and glass, and the green lid bin for "green waste" such as grass and leaves. On the streets, the bins are printed with pictures of the things that are allowed inside. It makes recycling quite easy.

    (1)、What will local people probably get if they put daily rubbish into the new system in Fangchengyuan Community?
    A、A computer. B、A car. C、A lot of money. D、Some small gifts.
    (2)、Which of the following is NOT the consequence (后果) of burying rubbish?
    A、Polluting soil. B、Polluting water. C、Taking up a lot of land. D、Saving resources.
    (3)、Which paragraph discusses the economic benefits of rubbish sorting?
    A、Paragraph 3. B、Paragraph 4. C、Paragraph 5. D、Paragraph 6.
    (4)、In Australia, which bin should you put food left after dinner in?
    A、The red lid bin. B、The yellow lid bin. C、The green lid bin. D、The black lid bin.
    (5)、Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
    A、In Australia, the green lid bin is used for all kinds of recyclable (可回收的) wastes. B、In Japan, all kinds of things for recycling are printed on rubbish bins. C、Japanese people cannot throw a bottle into a bin unless they move away the cap and the wrapper first. D、Australian people have to obey local timetables and directions to throw away rubbish strictly.

        Don't be too surprised if you see a car going down the road without a driver in Beijing these days. Last month, Baidu began to test its self-driving cars on open roads in Beijing.

        Since then, companies like Tesla, Uber and Baidu have been working to produce and test their own self—driving cars.

        Self-driving cars are safer than regular cars. They can remove the stress of driving and allow disabled or blind people to get around more easily.

        In one test, researchers pointed a laser pointer (激光棒) at the car's sensors (传感器) while it was moving. The car mistakenly thought that the laser beam was in its way and slowed down or changed the direction.

        The software that is used to direct the cars may not be safe enough. When we use our computers or smartphones, they sometimes crash (崩溃) without any reason. But if this happened to a self-driving car, the result could be deadly. Improvements to the software could be a solution to this problem.

    A. At times, it may break down.

    B. Self-driving cars began to develop in 2010.

    C. It might be one of Baidu's self-driving cars.

    D. But self-driving cars have their own problems as well.

    E. And they are more environmentally friendly than regular cars.
