Passage 2

 In the Sao Paulo State, in Brazil, there was a man. Paula Costa was standing in a bare (荒芜的) field of red diet. Five hundred years ago, this land was part of a rainforest called the Mata Atlantica. Today, nearly all of the forest has been cleared. Much of the land is used to plant just one kind of crop at a time.

But the rainforest is coming back. Some crops planted there are going to bring the soil back to life. This is not just a reforestation project. It’s also a farm. Soon, these crops will be joined by coffee plants and banana trees. Most of these plants will produce crops to sell.

Costa’s partner, Valter Ziantoni, is a forestry engineer. Together, they run a project called Pretaterra, which teaches agroforestry (混农林业),a method that grows trees beside crops. Growing trees beside crops can make the soil healthier. Looking out over a green field, Ziantoni is excited.

“We want our influence on the land to be as big as possible,” he says. By 2025, the couple aims to spread this way of farming over a large part of the former Mata Atlantica.

Cecilia Whately, a farmer, has been testing agroforestry, and is deciding whether to adopt this method in planting. It would reduce the amount of land for plants and cut production at first, but Whately would get a healthier crop and new products to sell. Turning to agroforestry isn’t simple, but Whately says there isn’t much choice. “If we don’t do anything in the next 10 to 20 years to change, every forest is going to be bare.”

1. What does the underlined word “reforestation” mean?

A．植树造林 B．重新造林 C．退耕还林 D．改善植被

2. 【文章后续推断】What will Whately do in the near future?

A．She will develop agroforestry across her farm.

B．She will discover more land to plant some coffee plants.

C．She will try every means to increase plant production.

D．She will spread agroforestry around the former Mata Atlantica.

3. 【细节排序】Which shows the correct order of the information in this text?

A．Problem→Solution→Practice B．Practice→Problem→Solution

C．Solution→Problem→Practice D．Problem→Practice→Solution

4. What is the best title for the text?

A．The Food Shortage Problem in Brazil.

B．The Increasing Quality of Crops in Brazil.

C．The Development of Planting Industry in Brazil.

D．The Restoring Rainforest Through Agroforestry in Brazil.

Passage 3

 When we think of problems the ocean is facing, we often think of climate (气候) change, plastic and overfishing. However, noise pollution is another necessary thing we need to monitor. The noise comes from shipping traffic, underwater oil and gas exploration, and other noisy human activities.

Sound travels very far underwater. For sea animals, sound is a better way to feel their environment than light. They use sound to communicate with each other. Sound also help some sea animals find food and avoid their hunters.

The Red Sea is one of the world’s most important shipping passages. It is full of large ships traveling to Asia, Europe, and Africa. Studies show that the total number of sea animals in that area has gone down because of the noise. Some studies also find that noise will cause hearing loss. Moreover, the stress from noise influences the immune (免疫) system of the sea animals.

When it comes to something humans can do for the ocean, we need to think about how to make it quieter. Noise pollution may be easier to deal with than other ocean problems. You can reduce or turn off sound at once. It’s not like plastic or climate change, which are much harder to deal with.

1. Which is a better way for sea animals to feel their environment?

A．Light. B．Plastic. C．Climate. D．Sound.

2. How does the writer tell us the influence of noise in Paragraph 3?

A．Listing numbers. B．Giving clues. C．Showing facts. D．Telling stories.

3. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?

A．Sea animals are calling for help B．Reasons for the noise in the ocean

C．Human activities harm sea animals D．Humans are making oceans too noisy
