1、 阅读下面短文, 从每个小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Air pollution is one of the world's invisible killers. It causes seven million deaths a year, making it the largest single environmentá l health risk. In cities, air pollution is particularly serious. More than 80% of people live in the areas where pollution levels are beyond WHO limits.
One well-established way to reduce air pollution is to plant trees, as their leaves catch and absorb(吸收) harmful particulates(微粒). But planting new trees is not always a good choice for lack of enough space. That's why the"City Tree", a mobile tree which removes pollutants from the air, has been becoming popular in cities around the world, including Oslo, Paris, Brussels and' Hong Kong.
Each City Tree is just under 4 meters tall, nearly 3 meters wide and 2.19 meters deep, acting as a chair or a bench. A screen is included for information or advertising. Berlin-based Green City Organization explains that its invention has the environmental benefit of up to 275 actual trees.
But the/ City Tree isn't. in fact, a tree at all— it's a moss culture(青苔培植). "Moss cultures have a much larger leaf surface area than any other plant. That means we can catch more pollutants," said Zhengliang Wu, co-founder of Green City Organization.
The huger surfaces of moss in each tree can remove dust, NO2 and O3 gases from the air. It requires very little care: solar panels provide electricity, while rainwater is collected into a containér and then sent into the soil.
To monitor the health of the moss, the City Tree has sensors which measure soil humidity (湿度), temperature and water quality"We also have pollution sensors inside the trees, which help monitor the local air quality and tell us how efficient the tree is," Wu said. Its creators say that each City Tree is able to absorb around250 grams of particulate matter a day and contributes to removing 480 tons of CO2 a year.
(1)、What is the City Tree?A、It is an ordinary tree growing leavers. B、It is a mobile tree offering electricity. C、It is a mobile tree providing rainwater. D、It is a moss culture absorbing pollutants.(2)、Why is the Gity Tree becoming popular in cities?A、It takes up less space. B、It is very easy to move. C、It requires very little care. D、It can be used for advertisement.(3)、What does the City Tree depend on to work?A、Soil and rainwater. B、Solar panels and sensors. C、Temperature and humidity. D、Moss culture and management.(4)、Which of the following statements is right according to the text?A、The City Tree needs a lot of care. B、The City Tree has environmental benefits as actual trees. C、Pollution sensors in the tress can help protect the environment. D、Planting new trees is a good choice to fight against air pollution in the city. -

"Where was the cashier.(收银员)?" I wondered. Feeling 1 with having waited at the counter(柜台) for at least 3 minutes, I quickly looked at my watch. I was afraid I 2 had enough time to eat a sandwich and then rushed back to work.

I took a deep breath. With Mom's words still ringing in my 11 , I gave the woman my order and smiled. "How are you doing today?"
My question seemed to 12 her. She looked at me for a second(秒) before answering."Not too good."
"I'm sorry," I said, "I hope it gets better from right now."
She almost smiled as she handed me the food. "Thanks. I hope you' re right."
I thought to 13 as I ate my sandwich. We' re the same, really. We have problems and angers, we get tired and we hurt. We need to be 14 to each other.
After eating, I cleaned the table cleaner than usual, and put the tray(托盘) back nicely on the stand. The woman was watching me all the time, with a big smile on her face.
"Do what's missing." What mum said really 15 . I smiled back to her, too.
