A horse fair is an interesting place. There is always a lot to see. There are young horses from the
country, little Welsh ponies, like Merry legs, and many beautiful horses too. But there were also a lot
of poor, thin horses, tired out from hard work. I was very sad to see them.

back again and said: “I will give twenty-four to him.”
“Done,” said the salesman. “He’s a quality horse and if you want him for cab work, he’s a
bargain.”
Half an hour later we set off for London, along country roads, until we came to that great city.
There were streets to the right, and streets to the left. We went into one of the small streets, and then
into a very narrow street, with small, old houses on one side, and stables on the other.
My new owner stopped at a house and whistled. The door opened, and a young woman, a little
girl and boy, came out. They all looked at me. “Is he gentle, father?” “Yes, Dolly, as gentle as a kitten:

Microplastics (微塑料) are so small that we can not see them. But they bring big problems. A
new study said that by 2040, microplastic pollution could be twice as bad as it is now. Scientists
learned this by looking at 20 years of studies on microplastics.
八年级英语模拟试题 第 7页(共 8页)
Microplastics are very small pieces of plastic. They come from many places. For example,
about 60 percent of material made into clothing is plastic. Every time they are washed, they shed (掉
落) microplastics. When water bottles and packing bags are left outside, they break down slowly into
microplastics.
According to National Geographic, microplastics are usually less than five millimeters (毫米)
in size. This small size lets them go everywhere, even in water and air. They don’t break down easily
and can stay in the environment for hundreds of years.
This can be bad for our health. Recently, it’s said that scientists found microplastics in people’s
brains for the first time. They may hurt brain cells (细胞) and change how the brain works.
Wild animals are also at risk from microplastic pollution. Each year, up to three million tons of
microplastics end up in the ocean. Since they are too small to be seen, fish may eat them by mistake
and become very sick.
To deal with the problem, scientists’ advice is that we should make and use less plastic.
However, it is easier said than done. It requires the efforts of everyone. Only by working together and
support eco-friendly products can we protect our environment and have a healthier future for both
humans and wildlife.
1.What are microplastics and why are they a problem ?
2.Where do microplastics come from ?
3.How do microplastics affect humans and animals ?
4.Why is it hard to stop microplastic pollution ?
5.What can we do to help reduce microplastic pollution ?
