Every day there is less and less space on Earth for rubbish. Yet every day we make more and more rubbish. What can we do? We can recycle some of our rubbish. Recycling means that the rubbish will be made into something that can be used again.
Recycling helps Earth. And it saves space in rubbish dumps. Half of everything that we put into landfills could be recycled instead. In fact, most things made of paper, metal, glass and plastic can be recycled.
Paper can be broken into small pieces and made into new paper. Steel and aluminum cans(金属雄)can be melted down(熔化)and made into new cans. The same is true of glass bottles. This can be done aver and over again. Recycling doesn't take as much energy as making these things the first time. So we can use less of Earth's fuel resources.
Plastic can be melted down, too. Then it can be formed into park benches, playgrounds and so on. Some people call plastic the "wood" of the future. Things made of plastic will last about 400 years﹣even if they stay outside in the weather. No wood can do that!
(1)The underlined word "landfills" in Paragraph 2 probably means .
A. bench factories
B. places for rubbish
C. green mountains
D. recycling centres
(2)According to the passage, what happens last to the can?
A. The can is put into a recycling bin.

(3)What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Cans should be melted down.
B. Old newspapers can be reused.
C. We can build benches that last 400 years.
D. We should recycle everything that we can.
Athletics vs. Gardening
The students of Southside School were asked to give their opinions about whether the school should run an athletic program or start a vegetable garden.
An athletic program is hatch better than gardening. How are we ever going to win anything at the Inter﹣School Athletics without proper training? At the moment, we only do athletics for one tam and the teachers train us. We need experts(专家)to teach us things like throwing and high jump. I know lots of kids say they're tot interested in competitions, but that's because they've never won anything. If they got better training and started winning things, they'd soon change their minds. People always say kids don't get enough exercise. Just because you do gardening outdoors doesn't make it exercise, so I don't sec how it matters. Athletics is much better for fitness and lots of kids can have a go at the same tine. I don't think there would be enough jobs for everyone in a garden. In fact, I think a garden is a really bad idea. I don't know why we're even considering it. Liz, Grade 8 |
I think a vegetable garden is a great idea. We already do hours of sport, including athletics. And not everyone likes sport. Gardening is a great way to get exercise without worrying about whether you're any good at it, or whether you're going to win. And you really do gel exercise when you garden. There's digging, weeding and watering Even picking things can be hard work ﹣ pumpkins aren't light you know! There are lots of kids around here who don't have gardens so they can't grow things even they want to. If you really want to do more sport, you can join a club. And think about it: What helps you to be good at sport? You need to eat lots of fruit and vegetables. If we learn to cook all the things we grow, the garden will keep us all fit and healthy and then we'll be better at sport. Sam, Grade 8 |
(1)Which of these points do Liz and Sam both make?
A. Kids should take exercise.
B. Kids should eat vegetables.
C. Kids should try to win more.
D. Kids should be outside more.
(2)What is one reason Liz gives for saying "a garden is a really bad idea"?
A. Some students don't like getting dirty.
B. Some students don't enjoy being outside.
C. Some students already know how to garden.
D. Some students may have no chance to garden.
(3)Why does Sam say, "And think about it.: what helps you to be good at sport?"
A. To change the subject.
B. To introduce his next reason.
C. To support Liz's idea.
D. To find an answer to the question.
A: Look! This is a picture of my dog. Here
B: (1)
A: I know. He weighs fifty﹣one kilos.
B: Really? That's amazing.(2)
A: He's called Max.
B: (3)
A: Five years. I got him when we moved out of the city. (4)
B: Wow! Then Max has more space.
