The world has a plastics problem. And not just with bottles. Straws(吸管), toothbrushes, toys—all kinds of plastics are placed in landfills. There are 5 billion tons of plastic waste in the world. Landfills have a large part of it. By 2050, they could have 13 billion tons.
Much of plastic rubbish finds its way into the ocean. Scientists say 165 million tons of plastic pieces are floating around out there. And most plastic won't disappear itself. It will remain in the ocean forever. Whales get caught in plastic fishing nets. Birds die because of eating plastic straws and bottle caps. It endangers ocean life. Plastic rubbish even ends up in the food we eat.
Governments are realizing that recycling may not be enough. They are taking more actions. Though it is hard work, it is still a solvable problem. In Britain, people are not allowed to use plastic bags except in hospitals. Scotland and several coastal cities in the US stop people from using plastic straws as well. The US alone throws away some 500 million plastic straws a day. That's enough to circle the Earth twice. "Saying no to a plastic straw is an easy way to make a big difference," Diana Lofflin said. "Do we really want to pass on to our children a world harmed by plastic?"
People have found some tasty ways to reduce waste. A company in India made the first-ever spoon that people can eat. You don't have to eat the spoon. You can throw it away. It decomposes(分解) in just a few days. David Edwards, a scientist at Harvard University, designed an eatable bag which can protect the food or drink inside. It is a delicious replacement for plastic ones.
(1)、According to the writer, birds die because they .A、eat bottle caps and straws B、get caught in fishing nets C、feed on ocean animals D、have the spoons in India(2)、The underlined word "endangers" in Paragraph 2 probably means " ".A、brings B、loses C、harms D、saves(3)、The purpose of the passage is mainly to .A、introduce some ways to recycle waste B、tell readers about the problem with plastics C、compare air pollution and plastic pollution D、describe how the US is reducing plastic waste(4)、From the passage, we can tell that the plastics problemA、is too big for people to solve. B、can be solved by recycling alone. C、 can be solved, but it won't be easy. D、will have to be solved by future scientists . -

Did you have cereal(麦片) for breakfast this morning? If you did, you're not alone. Lots of people eat cereal for breakfast every day. In fact, cereal is popular all over the world. It all started with one man, Will Keith Kellogg.
Will was born on April 7, 1860, in Battle Creek, Michigan. His first job was as a stock boy at the Battle Creek Sanitarium. A sanitarium is a special kind of place that is a little like a hospital. A sanitarium is meant for people who are ill for a long time or who are getting over a serious illness. Will had other jobs as he got older. But when he grew up, he became a manager of the sanitarium. His brother, John, was the chief doctor there.
One big problem at the sanitarium was the patients' diets. The patients needed healthy diets, but it was also important for the food to taste good. Will was trying to find a good food choice to take the place of the bread, but it wasn't going very well. Then, by accident, Will found something even better. He left some wheat to cook too long. When it was rolled out, it formed large, thin flakes(薄片). He asked his brother to serve it to the patients, and they loved it! In fact, they liked it so much that they wanted breakfast flakes sent to them even after they left the sanitarium. So Will started a new business in 1884: selling packaged breakfast flakes. Before long, Kellogg's breakfast cereal was popular in other countries, too. Today, there are many kinds of breakfast cereals. But it all started with one man and one idea.
Will did more than just create breakfast flakes. His company made a lot of money. But he always shared it with others generously. He used much of his money to help children. He also used his money to help in several other charities (慈善机构). Will Kellogg died in 1951. But his most famous invention is as popular as ever.
(1)、Will worked as ____before he became a manager of the sanitarium.A、a chief doctor B、a stock boy C、a businessman D、a cook(2)、Which of the following is TRUE about cereal according to the passage?A、It tasted worse than bread. B、It was invented by accident. C、It was Will's favourite food. D、It is popular only in hospitals.(3)、Which word can describe Will Kellogg best?A、Funny. B、Nervous. C、Brave. D、Kind.(4)、What is the purpose of the passage?A、To give advice on eating healthily. B、To introduce patients' breakfast. C、To describe Will and his invention. D、To explain how to make cereal. -

8、 任务A:补全第56~59题的信息。每空限填一词。 任务B:写一个句子,完成第60题。不超过15个词。
To see the world around us, we use our eyes. Our eyes are very clever. Each eye catches a different picture, so we can have a 3D picture of what we see. Our eyes can help us to see things that are a very long way away or very close. We can see well when it is bright or dark. Being able to see well is really important. We do things every day with eyes. If we couldn't see well, it would be very dangerous.
Our eye is made up of different parts. In the middle of the eye is the pupil that lets in light. The coloured part is called the iris, which helps the pupil open and close. The eyelid can stop the eyeball from being dry and protect it. The eyelashes keep dirt and other things away from our eyes.
Our eyes will not work so well when we don't use them properly. So it's very necessary for us to take good care of our eyes. There are many things we can do to protect them. For example, it's good for us to get our eyes checked at least twice a year.
Our eyes are amazing and are working hard every second we are awake. Be kind to our eyes!

Several years ago, two teenagers Poppy and Amy with a group of friends started a project called Silver Surfers. They had a clear goal: they wanted to help elderly people to feel more connected to other people, through the use of the Internet.
The two teenagers started the idea after seeing how the Internet had changed their own grandparents' lives. Their grandparents could use the Internet a little but wanted to learn more. After the two girls had given them a few basic IT lessons, they were able to use the computer more confidently and became users of social media(社交媒体).
The two students were so encouraged by the success that they got several of their friends to join them. Together, they started to visit elderly people in their town. Many of the people there couldn't even switch on a computer without help. But the young people were amazed how much they had learned after only a few lessons.
The silver surfers had different interests. Some of them wanted to use Wechat to stay in touch with family members who were far away from them. Others were interested in getting ideas for traveling, learning how to play an instrument or cooking. ▲ 89-year-old Shelia, together with a friend, managed to create a cooking tutorial on the Intermet; 93-year-old Merlyn succeeded in making a rap video; Albert, 89, wanted to learn how to use the web to find friends he fought with in World War Ⅱ and in doing so he was surprised by how easy it was to reconnect online with people he hadn't seen many years. He even managed to use his newly-learnt skills to reunite with his daughter whom he had lost touch with.
This project has been reported in several countries and a number of follow-up projects have been started. They are all helping the elderly people to have fun through the Internet—thanks to two teenage girls.
(1)、Silver Surfers are ____.A、elderly people who surf the Internet B、people who connect on the Internet C、teenagers who start an Internet project D、teenagers who use the Internt quite often(2)、In Paragraph 2, the story of the two girls' grandparents is most likely to ____.A、present a fact B、support the subject C、explain the cause D、describe the condition(3)、Which of the following can best fill in the blank in Paragraph 4?A、The result of the project was awful.

Did the wind ever blow your hat away? Did you ever drop your notebook on a windy day? How many important pages did you lose? Wind is moving air. It can pick up light materials and carry them far away.
Wind is a force of erosion(侵蚀). It can carry away small materials such as dust particles(灰尘微粒) and sand particles from the earth's surface. However, wind itself does not cause much erosion. Most "wind" erosion is done by particles which are carried by wind. Wind is an important natural force of erosion in dry places.
Wind can easily pick up sand particles. When they are blown against rocks, the sand particles hit the rocks in the wind. This happens over and over again. Little by little, the rocks wear down.
The particles which are carried by wind not only cause erosion, they also build up. What is carried away in the wind in one place will drop somewhere else.
When wind slows down, it drops the materials that it is carrying. When sand is dropped, it builds up and becomes dunes(沙丘). Sand dunes are common in deserts and on beaches. Some dunes can be harmful. They can bury(埋) farms and homes, even whole towns.
Wind carries dust particles higher and farther than it carries sand. Thick deposits of wind-blown dust may also build up. The wind-blown dust is called loess(黄土). Loess deposits are found in Washington State and Oregon State.
Sometimes people plant grasses and trees to try to stop wind erosion. How does this help? The roots of plants help to hold down soil and other particles found on the ground.
(1)、The purpose of writing the first paragraph is to____.A、introduce the topic B、make a comparison C、give background information D、warn people of the situation(2)、What does the underlined word"it" in Paragraph 5 refer to?A、Sand. B、Wind. C、Erosion. D、Dust.(3)、Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A、Wind itself can cause a lot of erosion to rocks. B、Sand particles and dust particles cannot build up. C、Planting grasses and trees can help stop wind erosion. D、Wind can carry sand particles farther than dust particles.(4)、This passage can probably be read in the ____part of a magazine.A、Travel B、History C、Geography D、Business -

What do a 62-year-old milkman in Northern Ireland and a 14-year-old boy in Sierra Leone have in common? If your answer is not much, you'd be right. And yet Harvey and Sam are a big part of each other's lives. In the letters that they write to each other, they share what has happened in their days, they discuss each other's families and they tell each other their hopes for the future. This is what World Vision has brought them.
In 1991, war broke out in the African country of Sierra Leone. The war created thousands of homeless people like Sam. When the war ended in 2002, people there began rebuilding their country. International organizations such as World Vision set up programs like the one that brought Harvey and Sam into contact.
Harvey has been sending money to Sam for three years and has seen many changes in the life of the boy. "I love reading Sam's letters. He's experienced things that no one should have to go through. And yet he's always so happy and hopeful. I'm always surprised by what he has achieved in such poor conditions."
Sam walks two miles each day to attend school but, to Sam, this is no problem. "I don't mind the walk to school. In the past we had no schools, clean water or food. Now we have all these things. I am thankful to have a sponsor like Harvey.
No one can argue that Harvey is a man with a big heart, but he has a different opinion towards what he does. "People tell me I'm doing a really good thing and I get a little embarrassed(尴尬的). It's not me out there rebuilding a country. I'm just sorry I didn't be a part of it sooner."
(1)、What is included in Harvey's and Sam's letters to each other?A、Information about their loved ones. B、Suggestions for their future life. C、News about development of the country. D、Details of the work of World Vision.(2)、According to Harvey, which word can best describe Sam?A、Warm-hearted. B、Strong-willed. C、Good-natured. D、Well-educated.(3)、In Paragraph 4, the underlined word "sponsor" probably refers to someone who ____.A、tries his best to realize his dream B、is respected by people around him C、creates an organization for poor people D、gives money to help people in need(4)、Why is Harvey embarrassed?A、He doesn't want to help with the rebuilding project. B、He thinks Sam is the person who sets a good example. C、He thinks other people should do more to help Sierra Leone. D、He doesn't think he should be praised much for what he does. -

Be a Good Sport!
Sports are more fun for everyone when the players show good sportsmanship. How to be a good sport? Here are some ways to help you to do it.
Good sportsmanship is about more than just doing your best. It also means encouraging others on your team and celebrating their success when they do well. If a teammate does not do well,do not criticize. Instead, say something supportive like"Good effort!"
Sports are a form of competition. It is easy to decide you do not like the people on the other team just because you are playing against them. Remember that you would not be able to play if you did not have opponents(对手) to play against.
Getting angry at the referee(裁判), one of the players, or yourself will not help you or your team. Show respect for everyone, and do not speak disrespectfully to anyone.
Remember that playing sports is mostly about having fun. You can enjoy playing even if your team does not win. Show that you are a good sport by congratulating the other team when they win.
