If your pencil box is broken,the batteries(电池)in your flashlights run out,or you have some leftover food,how will you deal with these things?You will probably throw them all into one rubbish bin.But actually,we need to sort(分类)all the rubbish separately.If you don't sort your rubbish,all of it will go to a special place where it is buried(埋藏)together.As a result,it will take up some fields.Some rubbish will pollute the groundwater.Some rubbish that can be reused will be wasted.
In recent years,some Chinese cities have been working hard on rubbish sorting.
Shanghai has called on all the people living in this city to sort their rubbish into four groups:wet,recyclable,harmful and dry.Wet waste is known as household waste.They are things you don't want but pigs can eat.Paper,metal,glass,plastic and other things that can be reused are recyclable waste.Harmful waste includes thins like medicine,batteries.Finally,any waste that is not wet,recyclable or harmful will go to the "dry waste" bin.
Many other Chinese cities are also using this way to sort their rubbish.For example,Deyang has been sorting its rubbish into the same four groups since several years ago.Students in Deyang have already received waste﹣sorting guidebooks.They have studied these books and known how to sort the rubbish.
China is now improving its waste﹣sorting efforts.There is still a long way to go.But it's never too late to learn how to sort your rubbish rightly.We should take an active part in it.
(1)How many bad results will there be if all the rubbish is buried together?
A.Two.
B.Three.
C.Four.
D.Five.
(2)What does the underlined phrase "take up" in Paragraph 1 mean?

B.改变
C.占用
D.从事
(3)Which of the following is harmful waste?

B.Paper and metal can be thrown into a "dry waste" bin.
C.The whole world is working hard on rubbish sorting.
D.China has already succeeded in sorting the rubbish.
Beyond its influence on health, not getting enough sleep can lead to car accidents or other mistakes. Here are what sleep researchers have found about how to sleep.
How much sleep do we actually need?
It is known that all of us naturally need no less than eight hours of sleep per night. When we sleep below six hours per 24, we're at an increased risk of health problems. Some of us think we can make up any of those hours lost during the week on the weekends. Sadly,there is no storage system for sleep in the brain.
Can we train ourselves to need less sleep?
As a study in 1964, a 17﹣year﹣old boy named Randy Gardner stayed awake for 264 hours. How many people could do anything close to that without dying?
When you are reading this, you might say you usually get six hours of sleep and feel just fine. Sleep experts often compare people without enough sleep to drunk drivers: They don't get behind the wheel thinking they're probably going to kill someone.
Can we drink coffee instead of sleeping?
Coffee can keep us awake. Remember, too much coffee may throw off our sleep and energy cycles. So limit coffee and avoid caffeine for four to six hours before bedtime.
Does a sense of purpose connect to sleep quality?
A new research suggests a kind of strong connection between purpose in life and sleep. People who have a greater sense of purpose usually have better physical and mental health, which in turn explains their higher﹣quality sleep. Perhaps developing a sense of purpose in life could be as useful at improving sleep as the healthy habits above.

Which topic drew the most attention from people around the world in 2019?It was climate(气候) change, according to three well﹣known English dictionaries.
The Oxford, Colls and Cambridge dictionaries chose"climate emergency", "climate strike" and"upcycling", respectively, as their"Word of the Year".This tells us that climate change was a widely﹣discussed issue(话题) in 2019.
"Climate emergency"means a situation in which urgent action is needed to reduce climate change."Climates strike" refers to people leaving work or school to call for more action to protect the environment."Upcycling"refers to making new items out of old or used items to reduce waste.
Climate change has already affected the world in many ways.Take Venice, for example.Due to climate change, Venice experienced the worst flooding(洪水) it has seen in the last 50 years in 2019.Many stores,restaurants and hotels were flooded.This caused serious damage toting hundreds of millions of euros(欧元).
A though we've known about global warming(全球变暖) for a long time, people have been slow to respond to it.The year 2019 might have been the turning point that will finally encourage us to take responsibility.
"Ten years ago, when the science on the climate issue was first increasing, the influences could be seen as an issue for future generations(子孙后代) , "Katharine, a climate scientist, told The New York Times."It's no doubt our issue now."
However, simply realizing that climate change is a threat(威胁) is not enough.We must take real action before it is too late.
根据短文内容,用符合语义及语法规则的词填空,每空一词.
(1)The words"Climate Emergency", "Climate Stike"and"Upcycling"talked about ,which was the hot issue in 2019.
(2)"Climate strike"means people call for more action to protect the environment working or going to school.
(3)In 2019, Venice lost hundreds of millions of euros because many , were flooded.
(4)What Katharine said means that for us to think over the issue of climate change.

Very often. when we see young people sitting there. looking at the screen of mobile phone and smiling. we may think nothing is wrong. But when we come to the question how much time do they actually spend on media (传播媒介) daily?", the answer is surprising go young people spend about nine hours every day using media, and this only includes media used for enjoyment.
Today's young people seem to have become crazy multitaskers.They often use media when doing other activities. Some watch TV when doing homework, some text (发短信),and some others listen to music. But what do young people think of this? A research showed that two thirds of them believed watching TV or texting had no influence on their schoolwork. Half of them thought using social media made no difference. However, researches have given a different answer: media multitaskers" did worse in tests.
Scientists did a research among more than 400 students. I shows that those who text a lot have more trouble sleeping and do worse in their study. In another research. students who didn't text during a lesson took down a lot more notes than those who were texting. A similar research also found that students who texted when doing schoolwork had lower overall (总体的) grades.
According to a research, if a kid uses social media a lot, especially at night he or she will sleep worse and feel more nervous and depressed (消沉的).On the one hand,young people stay up late to check messages and information.

It is reported that some developed countries have shipped broken parts of computers to China.Last month Hong Kong officers found 131,000kilograms of broken computers,TVs and phones sent from Japan.
Things like these are called electronic waste,or e﹣waste.Dealing with them is not an easy job.Every time an old computer breaks down,it needs to be dealt with safely.What is worse,at present,broken computer parts are usually buried .It may be hundreds of years before they are really gone in the earth.

Living on an island might sound wonderful. But what if you left for a trip and found you could never return? What if your home, and even the land it stood on, was gone forever?For people living in the Pacific Islands,this is really possible.
Why? Climate(气候) change. Climate change is causing the sea to rise. That's bad news for the Pacific Islands. Young people on the islands are even starting to wonder:Will they be the last generation(一代人)?
Not if the islanders have anything to do about it.These people are deeply connected to their homelands. The Pacific Islands are made up of 11 different countries: the Marshall Islands, Fiji, Samoa,and others. But now, those countries are working together. They're joining forces to fight climate change.
Why is climate change such a huge threat to this part of the world?Islands have low elevations(海拔).So they are among the first places influenced by rising sea levels. That's why countries of the Pacific Islands are working together to do their part.
But these are small countries. When it comes to climate change, can they make a big difference? They can, because most of the things that people on islands buy are brought by ships.This is very harmful to the environment. After all, ships put out almost 3 percent of the world's carbon emissions(碳排放).That makes climate change worse.
Pacific Islanders realize the problem. So, in 2019,six countries got together:Fiji,the Marshall Islands, Samoa,Vanuatu, the Solomon Islands, and Tuvalu. They came up with a plan. They agreed to cut carbon emissions from shipping by 40 percent by 2030.And by 2050,they expect zero﹣carbon shipping.
How will they pull this off? They plan to use some really cool carbon﹣free technologies.They'll make use of solar and wind energy.
Sea levels are rising, but hopes aren't sinking in the Pacific Islands.

Second﹣hand smoke is the smoke that comes from the smoker's breath.If people breathe in second﹣hand smoke from time to time,they could get sick from it.It can cause lung cancer(肺癌)and many other diseases.
But how serious is the problem of the second﹣hand smoke?The World Health Organization(WHO) did a study of 194 countries.They found that second﹣hand smoke causes about 600,000 deaths every year.That is about 1% of the world death and it leads to a lot of trouble and pain.
Second﹣hand smoke is especially harmful to children because their bodies are growing.According to a study,around 165,000 children under 5 die each year because of second﹣hand smoke.Most of these deaths happened in Africa and Southem Asia where health care is very poor.
You can do something to keep yourself and other people away from second﹣hand smoke.You can ask the smokers,such as your parents,to smoke outside.And,if someone smokes close to you,you'd better hold your breath or just walk away.

Recently, China announced it had achieved success in drilling fire ice or methane hydrate(天然气水合物即,可燃冰), from the seabed in the shenhu area of the South China Sea. It produces high amount of energy when it is burned, leaving nothing but dioxide and water.
Many countries, including the United States and Japan, have long been doing research on methane hydrate, but taking it from bottom of the sea has been a common problem they are facing.According to reports.China succeeded in drilling methane hydrate for a number of days continuously and got an average of over 16,000 m 3 daily. It is believed to be a big breakthrough.
Scientists say there is about 21, 000 trillion( 万亿 )3 of methane hydrate in the world. If we can use it, it can meet the world's energy need for 1, 000 years. However, it is too early to say a new energy source (来源 ) has been found because we are still facing two main challenges﹣environmental risk and economic(经济的)cost. When methane hydrate is taken from the seabed, it may go into the air easily. That's very bad for the environment because methane is one of the worst greenhouse gases, Besides, drilling methane hydrate is very expensive as well.
However, China's technology breakthrough is very important because it shows the way researchers across the world should take. It also raises hopes that one day we can drill methane hydrate as a source of energy.

C. How to make it cheap on the future energy market.
D.How to change it into a traditional form of energy.
(3)Why is it too early to say a new energy source has been found?
A. Because it's too difficult to find the place where the fire ice lies and how to drill it.
B. Because it's not easy for fire ice to go into the air and be good for the environment.
C. Because it s quite impossible for fire ice to take the place of other sources of energy
D.Because it's expensive to drill fire ice and it may do great harm to the environment

GreenHome campaigners (发起者) really love the natural world. In fact, we love it so much that we're determined(决心) to do our best to protect it. (1) For that,we need money too. GreenHome can be strong only with the support from people like you.(2)
If the joy of walking through green forest, the excitement of climbing ancient rocks, or even the simple pleasure of watching wildlife in its own habitat(栖息地) really moves you, then share GreenHome's idea of the world. Please turn that idea into some support today.
(3) So take action right now! Even a very small amount, like ¥1 a month, will soon build up into a valuable contribution(贡献) to protecting the natural world we love so much. (4) We'll also use it to develop ways to deal with environmental problems.
Think about it another way. If you want a future where you can continue to do the things you love in the great outdoors, you need to make sure you've got a great outdoors to do them in. (5) And this way is simple enough﹣that's got to be worth ¥1 a month.
A. Giving Green Home your support is one way you can do that.
B. But determination alone will not protect the environment.
C. That's why we're asking you to join us today.
D. And we won't just use it to stop bad things.
E. Everything we do costs money.
We should not use more water than we actually need. If we do, we will not have enough water in the future. (1) It is not a difficult question to answer. If we remove more fresh water than nature replaces, we have taken too much.
Many cities run campaigns(运动)to get people to stop wasting water. They show them ways they can cut back on water use. (2) What's more, they carry out programs that offer money to reduce water use. For example, they give people shower heads and toilets that use less water. (3)
Another threat(威胁)to our water supply is pollution. When our sources of fresh water get polluted, we can no longer use this water. This also endangers(危及) the animals that depend on the water.
(4) We can save lots of water by not letting taps(水龙头) run while we brush our teeth or by turning off taps right after washing hands. By collecting cold water when were taking warm showers, we can also save water. (5) In this way, we can make full use of water.
A. However, just how much is too much?
B. There are several things we can do to save water.
C. Finally, they make laws to control the use of water.
D. We don't have to let the cold water run until it gets warm.
E. They also increase water bills for people who use too much.
