Recycling has become more and more important. As time goes by, it is rapidly changing around the world.(1) .
More goods will be made of reused materials.You'll find more clothing,toys,park benches that are made of recycled water bottles.Buildings and furniture are made of renewable wood and steel.(2) .
Consumers(消费者) will become cleverer. Shoppers will turn to companies that produce green products.(3) . They want to know how the materials come from, how food is grown and so on.
Less plastic packaging(包装). We find it difficult to open a bottle of pills or a new toy and it's a waste of resources. Don't use plastic bags when we go shopping.(4) . Everyone should be a greener person though it will probably take longer for all plastics to disappear.
Actions speak louder than words (5) . Companies should make efforts to reduce materials for packaging as well. The government will take measures to change the situation. In the next ten years,we'll still have a long way to go.

Maybe a lot of thin people will be worried about their health if the inside fat matters.
Some doctors now think that the inside fat around important organslike the heart or liver could be as dangerous as the outside fat which can be noticed more easily.
"Being thin doesn' t surely mean you are not fat,"said Dr Jimmy Bell at Imperial College.Since 1994,Bell and his team have tested nearly 800people with MRI to create "fat maps" showing where people store fat.
According to the result,people who keep their weight through the food they usually eat rather than exercise are likely to have major deposits (堆积物) of inside fat,even if they are thin.
Even people with normal Body Mass Index (体重指数) scores can have surprising levels of fat deposits inside.Of the women,as many as 45percent of those with normal BMI scores (20to 25)actually had too high levels of inside fat.Men were nearly 60percent.
According to Bell,people who are fat on the inside are actually on the edge of being fat.They eat too many fatty and sugary foods,but they are not eating enough to be fat.Scientists believe we naturally store fat around the stomach first,but at some point,the body may start storing it elsewhere.
Doctors are unsure about the exact dangers of inside fat,but some think it has something to do with heart disease and diabetes (糖尿病).They want to prove that inside fat does harm to the body' s communication systems.
The good news is that inside fat can be easily burned off through exercise or even by improving your eating habits."If you want to be healthy,there is no other way.Exercise has to be an important part of your lifestyle,"Bell said.

It is everyone's duty to help animals to stop extinction (灭绝). As a student, there are so many things you can do yourself too! Please look at the following tips (建议) to help the endangered animals.
Send a letter to your local environment protecting center and show how you feel about the quick extinction of animals. Use the facts to write what you have found. Give some advice to the officers who make the strong rules to save animals.
Draw pictures and make a poster. Put this poster somewhere at school or where people will usually see it. Add some texts in the sign to make it clear why you care about the loss (丧失) of animals. It may encourage people to do something to protect the animals.
Avoid buying things that come from endangered species (物种). When you travel, be careful about what you buy. You shouldn't buy things made from endangered animals or endangered tree species from forests that the animals live on.
Watch your diet. Before eating meals, you should see if you will break a food chain. If you see somebody doing something bad for the food chain, please stop him at once.
(1)Who make rules to save the endangered animals?
(2)Where should we put the poster?
(3)Is it right to buy a gift made of ivory (象牙) while travelling?
(4)Why should we watch our diet?
(5)What is the writer's purpose according to the passage?
Governments around the world are pushing for an end to plastic straws (吸管) and bags.More and more businesses are turning to paper products as a choice.Paper is considered by many to be better than plastic.However,it,too,is harmful to the environment.
Firstly,paper bags and straws are made from trees.Trees,as you know,can reduce (减少) carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) levels in the atmosphere. Theycan slow down climate (气候) change.An increase in the use of paper bags can cause more acts of cutting down trees.
Secondly,products made from paper require more energy and water.About 10 percent more energy and four times as much water is used to produce a paper bag than a plastic one.You might say that we can use recycled paper to save that energy and water.This seems to be a good idea.However,it takes even more energy and water to go through the recycling process than to make a brand new paper bag.Products made from recycled paper are also often short﹣lived.
Thirdly,paper products are heavier than plastic ones.That means they require more oil to transport.Seven trucks are needed to transport two million paper bags,while only one truck is needed to transport the same number of plastic bags.The increased weight also leads to a large amount of waste once the bags are thrown away.
Paper products are actually a lose﹣lose for both the environment and businesses.They are more expensive than plastic products.A paper straw costs about 5 to 12 cents,while a plastic one usually costs only about 2 cents.
The most environment﹣friendly solution is to avoid single﹣use products altogether.Products like glass water bottles and steel straws can be used over and over again.They are much better than either paper products or plastic products.Through increasing the use of these products,you can greatly reduce your throwaway waste and truly make our Earth a greener place!
(1)What does the underlined word " They" in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. |
Plastic products. |
B. |
Trees. |
C. |
Paper products. |
D. |
Businesses. |
(2)Compared with transporting two million plastic bags,transporting two million paper bags requires .

Influenza, or flu(流感), is a type of virus. It spreads from one person to another quickly. When someone who has the flu coughs or sneezes, little droplets from their lungs (肺) spread out into the air.Anyone nearby can get sick. Even a person who touches something with the virus and then touches his or her mouth, eyes, or nose, can become infected(感染).
The outbreak of the 1918 influenza infected about 500 million people worldwide. It killed from 20 million to 50 million people. It was first seen in Europe, the United States, and parts of Asia.It then spread quickly around the world. Many people who became sick were young, healthy adults.At the time, no treatments worked in the prevention of the spread of the killer flu. People were ordered to wear masks. Schools, theaters and other public places were closed.
When the first wave(波>in the spring of 1918 hit, it didn't seem serious. People who were infected felt the usual flu symptoms(症状), which are chills, fevers, and feeling tired. Those who got sick generally got better after several days. Not many died. However, a second, highly contagious(传染的)wave of influenza appeared in the fall of that same year. Victims died shortly after they were infected ﹣ within hours or days. Their skin turned blue and their lungs were filled with liquid(液体),making it very difficult to breathe.
By the summer of 1919, the flu pandemic(大流行病) came to an end. Sick people had either got well or died. Almost 90 years later, in 2008, researchers announced they'd discovered why the 1918 flu was so deadly. The flu virus inflamed (使…恶化)the lungs, causing them to fill with liquid.
Since 1918, there have been several other influenza pandemics, although none has been quite as deadly.
(1)What information about the 1918 flu is mentioned in the passage?
A. The reason why it was so deadly.
B. The reason why it ended.
C. The change it caused to medical research.
D. The place in which it was last seen.
(2)All the people that were infected with the 1918 flu .
A. had blue skin that led to their death
B. had touched someone with the virus
C. died as their lungs were filled with liquid
D. had the virus in their bodies that made them sick
(3)Which of the following statements about the 1918 flu is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Wearing a mask was the best way to treat it.
B. A younger person had a lower risk of being infected with it.
