Even so, I didn’t want to go home. I had a fight with my mo m and ran out of the house just 10 minutes ago. I sat down near a lake. There were many children playing with their parents nearby. I felt a little lonely. “Shall we play together?” A little girl came towards me with a ball in her hands. I agreed and she handed me the ball with a sweet smile. When it began to rain, most children by the lakeside went home with their parents. “Where are your parents?” I asked the girl. “My mom is selling candied fruits outside the park. She seldom has time to play with me,” the girl explained. “I usually play alone here. It’s OK if you need to go home now. I am old enough to stay here and wait for my mom.” “But it’s raining,” I said. “You’d better not be here alone when it’s dark.” “It’s OK. Mom won’t leave me alone. She is coming soon,” the girl replied. “She is my mom. Even if she seldom plays with me, I know she cares about me.” The little girl’s words touched my heart. She taught me to love and believe in my mom. Should I listen to her and say sorry to my mom? In the end, I took the little girl to her mom’s stand (货摊) and then ran home quickly. Seeing me entering the house, my mom was close to tears. “Where have you been? I looked for you everywhere! See how wet your coat is! Don’t come to my room if you get a cold tonight!” But I knew she wasn’t angry anymore. After taking a shower, I heard her calling outside my room, “Lisa, dinner time! Come out if you feel like eating some fish.” I came out and said sorry to my mom. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 6. The writer didn’t want to go home became ________.

C Cotton bags have become a popular way for stores and supermarkets to show their environmentally friendly opinions—or, at least, to show that they know people use too much plastic in their daily lives. “It’s very popular for people in New York now to take cotton bags from local supermarkets, big shopping centers or their favorite restaurants, “says designer Rachel Comey. ____11____ Not exactly. It turns out that too many cotton bags may actually have created a new problem. A cotton bag needs to be used 20,000 times to offset (抵消) its whole bad environmental influence when it is made, according to a study by the Ministry of Environment and Food of Denmark (丹麦). That means a cotton bag has to be used daily for about 55 years. It needs to use a lot of water to produce cotton, and how to deal with a cotton bag in an environmentally friendly way is also not as simple as people think. That’s not to say that cotton is worse than plastic. When people produce cotton, they have to use things that are bad for the environment. On the other hand, when plastic bags are made, pollution follows, too. What’s more, plastic bags end up as rubbish in the sea, which becomes a more serious problem for the environment. Some companies are turning to other ways. Ally Capellino recently uses hemp (麻) instead of cotton, while Hindmarch introduces a new kind of bag, this time made from water bottles. Nordstrom also uses similar bags in its stores. In the end, the easiest way may be the best. “Not every product needs a bag,” Comey says. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案 11. Why do stores and supermarkets use cotton bags? A. To meet customers’ needs. B. To save the cost of plastic bags. C. To follow the government’s order. D. To show they care about the environment. 12. Which of the following can be put in “________”? A. Do people like cotton bags? B. Are cotton bags really environment- friendly? C. Are cotton bags cheaper than plastic bags? D. Do designers have good ideas for cotton bags? 13. How does the writer show the problem created by cotton bags in Paragraph 3? A. By telling a story. B. By giving an example. C. By introducing a study. D. By showing the differences. 14. What can we learn from Paragraph 4? A. Using plastic bags can save water. B. There is no need to deal with cotton bags. C. There is no pollution in producing cotton. D. Both cotton and plastic bags cause environmental problems. 15. Which may be “the easiest way”? A. Using fewer bags. B. Using hemp bags. C. Using cotton bags. D. Using bags made from water bottles. D World Wildlife Day World Wildlife Day falls on March 3 every year. It’s a global (全球的) celebration of all the wonderful wild animals and plants on the planet. ____16____ Check out the suggestions below. ____17____ You can visit your local wildlife saving center and botanical garden (植物园).

Don’t feed wild animals human food. ____19____ Others may depend on your food little by little and forget how to search for food on their own. ____20____ The rubbish may make wild animals dangerous. If you find a hurt wild animal, call your local wildlife saving center. The workers there will help care for the animals. 根据材料内容，从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项，使文章意思通顺、内容完整。 A. You can take a picture of it instead. B. Don’t throw food waste or other rubbish on the road. C. What can we do to make the world a better place for them? D. Learn more about the wildlife in your areas. E. Some animals can get sick from eating human food. 三、完形填空(15 小题，每小题1分，共15分) 先通读短文，掌握其大意，然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个可以填入相应空白处的最佳答案。 When I was a teenager (青少年), I helped to give out water to ____21____ at a race.
