When Sri was just 10 years old, he saw on the news that a lithium-ion battery (锂离子电池) had caused a huge fire. This news shocked him. At that time, he searched for batteries and found that batteries may have dangerous materials that can be harmful to the environment. And over 15 billion batteries are thrown away each year worldwide. Only around 1% of them are recycled. He decided to do something because batteries also have valuable materials that can be used to make new products.
In order to protect the environment, he set up an organization called “Recycle My Battery”. He offered battery-recycling boxes to schools, offices and libraries. And he actively spread his messages through speeches, blogs and many more platforms (平台)—mainly to kids, as they are the future. Gradually, his efforts have attracted more than 325 young volunteers who have already recycled over 265,000 batteries. Furthermore, they have successfully educated around 125,000 people so far.
Driven by the belief that young people hold the key to recycling batteries, Sri wants to show people how to deal with the batteries properly and tell more people about the importance of recycling the batteries. “There are so many important challenges in the world, and I believe young people have the a... to solve them!

When Sri was just 10 years old, he saw on the news that a lithium-ion battery (锂离子电池) had caused a huge fire. This news shocked him. At that time, he searched for batteries and found that batteries may have dangerous materials that can be harmful to the environment. And over 15 billion batteries are thrown away each year worldwide. Only around 1% of them are recycled. He decided to do something because batteries also have valuable materials that can be used to make new products.
In order to protect the environment, he set up an organization called “Recycle My Battery”. He offered battery-recycling boxes to schools, offices and libraries. And he actively spread his messages through speeches, blogs and many more platforms (平台)—mainly to kids, as they are the future. Gradually, his efforts have attracted more than 325 young volunteers who have already recycled over 265,000 batteries. Furthermore, they have successfully educated around 125,000 people so far.
Driven by the belief that young people hold the key to recycling batteries, Sri wants to show people how to deal with the batteries properly and tell more people about the importance of recycling the batteries. “There are so many important challenges in the world, and I believe young people have the a... to solve them! Each kid can be a change-maker,” he says.

A. Because batteries had new materials.
B. Because batteries were expensive and special.
C. Because he wanted to use batteries to do some research.
D. Because he wanted to protect the environment and make full use of batteries.
37. What’s the writer’s purpose of listing numbers in Paragraph 2?
A. To give speeches to kids in public.
B To encourage people to use battery-recycling boxes.
C. To show the achievements of “Recycle My Battery”.
D. To introduce an organization called “Recycle My Battery”.
38 Which of the following things did Sri do?
①Searched for batteries. ②Cleaned the river. ③Set up an organization.
④Posted videos on social media. ⑤Offered battery-recycling boxes.
A. ①②③ B. ②③④ C. ①③⑤ D. ③④⑤
39. What is the proper word in the sentence “I believe young people have the a... to solve them!”
A. Action. B. Attention. C. Ability. D. Advice.

Team spirit means the willingness of people to work together and help each other as part of a team. With the spirit, people try hard to make their team the best of all. Everyone has experienced team spirit one way or another, whether they were part of a team or saw a group of people cheer on their favorite player.
There are different kinds of team spirit. One kind is the connection among a team of people. Because their efforts and cooperation (合作) are necessary for reaching a particular goal. Another kind is when a group of people support a person or a team. Another one is people’s natural love of and pride in their country when the whole nation cheers for its country in competitions.
Team spirit creates various good effects. It creates friendship and trust among people. There may also be bad effects. Too great team spirit may cause arguments or fights with other team members.
Some people can’t understand team spirit properly. They think team spirit means having to become an official member of an organization, a team or a fan club. In fact, team spirit can be built anywhere—among friends, co-workers or even between two people sitting next to each other. You don’t have to wear the team spirit clothes. Anyone can show team spirit just by showing support for the goal.
