Because of this disagreement, the final deal doesn’t mention a phase-out or a phase-down. 34 , it calls for “transitioning (转型) away from fossil fuels”.

You might throw them away, sell them or give them to people in need. No matter which way you choose, it’s always you who have to decide what to do. However, California decided to push clothing companies to take care of the old clothes. As a result, the state passed the first US clothing recycling law (法律) on Sept 28, 2024. This new law is expected to make less pollution. In 2021, about 1.2 million tons of old clothes were thrown away in California. While 95% are reusable or recyclable, only 15% are actually recycled. The law said that companies making clothes have to set up a program to reuse, repair and recycle their goods. What’s more, they would have to pay for the costs of the whole program. More than 150 groups, including environmental groups and some stores like Ikea, agree with the law. It would do good to the environment. It could also create over 1,000 new green jobs, reported The Guardian. As a main polluter, the fashion industry (时尚产业) causes nearly 10% of the world’s carbon emissions (碳排放), according to the United Nations.

The West didn’t have such kind of money until the 15th century. However, the Chinese began to use it in the 7th century. Paper was invented by a Chinese man called Cai Lun almost 2,000 years ago. But it was not made in Europe until the year 1100. A German discovered that he could make the best paper from trees 400 years later. After that, countries rich in forests, such as Canada, America and Finland became the most important ones in paper making. Paper is quite useful in our life. It is the carrier of writing and printing. Painters use it to describe the beauty of the world, writers use it to tell the warmth of the world, and educators use it to spread knowledge. But do you know that paper can be used for keeping warm? In Finland, the farmers wear paper boots (靴子) to keep their feet warm in the snow. However, we have to understand that paper still comes from trees now. Every day people throw away about 2,800 tons of paper in our city. If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth some day in the near future. So we must start saving paper right now before it is too late. We can use both sides of every piece of paper and make useful things out of used paper. When shopping, we can use fewer paper bags and reuse them if we have some. 54．When did the Chinese begin to use paper money? A．In the 13th century. B．In the 14th century. C．In the 15th century. D．In the 7th century. 55．Canada became an important country in paper making because ________. A．it was a large country B．it was a rich country C．it had a lot of forests D．it discovered the best paper 56．The third paragraph mainly tells us ________. A．where paper was invented B．what paper is used for C．when Finland invented paper D．how we can save paper 57．Why does the writer write the last two paragraphs? A．To remind us of saving paper. B．To share the use of paper bags. C．To introduce the ways of inventing paper. D．To tell us to plant more trees. 【答案】54．D 55．C 56．B 57．A 【导语】本文主要讲述了纸在东西方的发明和产生，纸的用途以及呼吁人们充分利用和节约使用纸张。 54．细节理解题。根据“The West didn’t have such kind of money until the 15th century. However, the Chinese began to use it in the 7th century.”可知，中国在7世纪就开始使用纸币。故选D。 55．细节理解题。根据“After that, countries rich in forests, such as Canada, America and Finland became the most important ones in paper making.”可知，加拿大成为一个重要的造纸国家是因为它森林资源丰富。故选C。 56．主旨大意题。根据“Paper is quite useful in our life.”可知，该段主要介绍了纸在日常生活中的用处。故选B。 57．推理判断题。根据“So we must start saving paper right now before it is too late.

You’ve made the first step to recycling, but here are other things that parents and kids can do to make recycling work better. You’ve probably just got a rubbish bin where everything goes in your bedroom. But it’s a good idea to put a special bin for recycling paper. Then when it goes full, you can empty it into a larger recycling bin in the kitchen. You can also put a small recycling bin in the bathroom for any useless paper there. Before you throw an item into the recycling bin, stop and think if you can use it again. Take plastic or glass items with yoghurt (酸奶), for example. After eating up the yoghurt, you can continue to use them for storing another food item. If you decide to put an item in the recycling bin, it’s very important to follow this method. If it has food or drink in it, you must clean it before you put it in the recycling bin. It can’t be recycled with food still in it. You should put the item under the running water for a few seconds to clean it. This saves time for the workers in the recycling center to do more important work. You mustn’t just do recycling for several months or even years and then return to your old habits. Recycling is a whole life task, so we’d better make recycling our new habit. 58．What’s the main idea of this passage? A．Rubbish in the house. B．What to do with the waste paper. C．How to make recycling work better. D．How to be a greener person. 59．Which of the following about waste items isn’t mentioned in the passage? A．Put them in different bins. B．Send them to neighbors. C．Try to use them again. D．Make them clean before throwing. 60．According to the passage, which of the following can NOT be recycled? A．Used batteries. B．Plastic items. C．Glass items.

After eating up the yoghurt, you can continue to use them for storing another food item.”可知，此处是指可以利用喝完的玻璃或塑料酸奶盒子来储存其他物品，因此划线词“them”指的是玻璃或塑料制品。故选D。 62．细节理解题。根据“Recycling is a whole life task, so we’d better make recycling our new habit.”可知，回收是一项终生任务，可以一直持续保持这种好习惯。故选D。 At just 14 years old, Ryan Hickman from San Juan Hills High School, US, attracts a lot of eyes with a beach clean-up activity. On April 20, 2024, he and many volunteers started a five-week activity to pick up rubbish from five beaches along the Southern California coast and even some beaches in Mexico. He has collected about 2 million bottles from beaches, lakes and rivers since he was 2 years old. “The rubbish ends up in the ocean, and animals are eating it,” Ryan told The Orange County Register. “I really can’t endure the pollution any more. Picking up a piece of rubbish may save a turtle’s life.” Ryan first learned about the influence of pollution at the Pacific Marine Mammal Center (PMMC太平洋海洋哺乳动物中心) in Laguna Beach. Watching the videos of ocean pollution there encouraged him to think about what he could do to help save them. From a young age, he has developed a love for recycling. He kept collecting rubbish and bottles for a long time. One day, Ryan knew from the workers in PMMC that saving sea animals needed money. “Why not sell the bottles?” he thought. In 2017, Ryan handed a $10, 000 check to the PMMC after picking up 50, 000 pounds of rubbish and more than 200, 000 recyclable bottles. Ryan has also traveled worldwide, speaking to kids about what kids can do for the protection of sea animals. He said, “It’s meaningful.

In 2008, the UN regarded June 8 as World Oceans Day. It is so important that it is now celebrated in over 100 countries around the world. It’s a day to think about the important role that the ocean plays in our lives, the dangers that our oceans are facing and the action we can take to protect the ocean. 2 ·It is home to many plants and animals on earth. ·Sea plants provide us with 70 % of the oxygen we breathe. ·It controls our climate (气候), providing heat in winter and cool air in summer. ·It also provides us with food and medicine. When people talk of exploring (开发) the sea, there are two different points. No: Sea exploration has caused many problems and will continue to cause more. More exploration means more pollution. One of the worst is plastic pollution. Many birds and fish died of this. Mining for resources (资源开采) harms a lot, especially in the Arctic. The thickest, oldest and hardest sea ice around it is melting. Climate change is warning us that something is very wrong. Overfishing is another problem. Whales and dolphins are also killed for their meat or for so-called research. Although this was not allowed in 1982, some countries are still hurt these clever animals. Yes: To truly understand our planet, we must explore the oceans. For example, some research can help answer some important questions such as climate change. We need to understand what is happening to our planet so that we can take action. Therefore, more research is necessary. Understanding more about the sea will also help us manage its resources better. It may help us discover new medicines, as well as new sources of food and energy. Getting to the deep ocean may also help us to predict events such as earthquakes. The population of the world is growing and we need new resources for future development. There are probably more resources under the sea and ice, not just oil and gas but also valuable minerals. As we all know, the ocean is the treasure to our life. Now it is crying out for our help! Remember, only when we get on well with nature, like respecting the ocean, can our world be a better place. Let’s take action now and make a difference for our future. 78．When is the World Oceans Day? 79．What’s the best title of the Chart 1? 80．What’s the worst pollution that the sea exploration cause? 81．What can we get from the sea exploration? 82．Do you think which is more important, the sea exploration or sea protection? How can we do that? 【答案】78．On June 8. 79．The importance of the sea. 80．The plastic pollution. 81．New medicines./Food and energy. 82．Both are important./Sea exploration/Sea protection.

However, only 3% of the water is fit for human use, and the rest is frozen or salty. According to a report by WWF, water shortage (短缺) influences nearly 27% of the world’s population. Many reasons cause water shortage. The first is climate (气候) change. The heat caused by climate change leads to water drying out. The next is water pollution, which makes the limited water unsafe for using. What’s more, the human population has more than doubled, and today 41% of world’s population is badly in need of water. So what are the results of water shortage? Firstly, people lack enough water to drink. Water shortage brings about hunger. Plants can not grow when there is not enough water. As a result, there is less food for people. Therefore, it’s time to take action. Here are three ways for us to save water in daily life. First, take shorter showers. Save a minute or two of your shower time. Millions of people doing even the little things makes a difference. Second, if you forget to turn off a tap, all those wasted drops add up—sometimes 5,300 liters of water a year. Third, reuse water. Collect water after washing vegetables and pour it on your plants. 88 89 90 91 92 【答案】88．Water shortage 89．Water pollution 90．Results 91．less food 92．Reuse water 【导语】本文主要介绍了水资源短缺的原因，结果，以及节约用水的方法。 88．根据“Many reasons cause water shortage.

Actually, everyone can make a big difference to the environment by starting with small things. We can make our own choices about protecting the environment. In the daily life, we can recycle and reuse many things. Recycling involves cutting down on waste and energy use by turning used things such as plastic bottles into new products. Reusing involves cutting down on waste by reusing things such as shopping bags. Another way we can help the environment is to save energy. We should remember to turn things off when we’re not using them. We should also use less air conditioning, use energy-saving light bulbs and turn things off when we are not at home. All these things help protect the environment. Local food is better for the environment because of transportation pollution. The fewer miles the food has to travel, the less pollution there will be. We can buy local food at stores, go to a local farmer’s market, or even directly go to a farm to pick up fruit and vegetables! In addition, we can cut down on meat because vegetables take far less energy to produce than meat. Everyone can make a big difference to the environmental protection. We can make our own 93 to protect the environment by starting with small things. In the daily life, we can 94 many things by turning used things into new products. Besides, we can reuse many things like shopping bags. Another way we can do is to 95 energy. We should remember to turn things off when we’re not using them.

Have you ever thought about how these things can actually be put to good use? Nothing is a waste if you have a creative mind. [2] You have probably never heard of Amy Hayes, but she is a most unusual woman. She lives in a house in the UK that she built herself out of rubbish. The windows and doors come from old buildings around her town that were pulled down. The top of the house is an old boat turned upside down. And the gate in front of her house is made of rocks and old glass bottles. Amy recently ① a prize from the Help Save Our Planet Society. The president said, “Amy is an inspiration to us all.” [3] Amy isn’t the only one who is good at ② . Jessica Wong from Hong Kong China uses old clothes that people don’t wear anymore to make bags. She has been doing this for a few years now. She opened a small shop where she sells her bags and she has also set up a website to sell them online. She especially likes to use old jeans to make handbags. Her bags are cute and useful. “I plan to write a book about new ways to use old clothes,” she said. “I hope people can read my book and enjoy it!” [4] Wang Tao set up a small business in Shanghai four years ago. He is (③) for using iron and other materials from old cars to make beautiful art pieces. Some are large pieces that look like animals or humans, and some are smaller pieces you can put at home. The more popular works can even be seen in art shops around the city. Wang Tao hopes to set up a “metal art” theme park to show people the importance of environmental protection. Not only can the art bring happiness to others, but it also shows that even cold, hard iron can be brought back to life with a little creativity. 98．Which country is Amy Hayes from? (No more than 2 words) 99．What does Jessica use to make bags? (No more than 7 words) 100．What is the title of the passage? 101．Fill in each blank in the passage with one proper word. ① ② ③ 102．Translate the underlined sentence in the forth paragraph into Chinese. 103．Do you think it’s important to protect the environment?

One way is to use clean energy. Clean energy does not harm 106 Earth. It never runs out. Energy from the Sun is clean. We just need to learn how to get and store more of it. Plants use energy from the Sun. They use it 107 (turn) water and air into sugar. The sugar can be used as food. Scientists know a lot about 108 plants make food. Some scientists want to get energy from the Sun like plants do. They want to make a machine that can use sunlight to make fuel (燃料) from water. Water 109 (make) up of two different parts.

For the first time, the 26 clearly calls on countries to move away from using fossil fuels (石化燃料) to create energy. 27 many people say the agreement doesn’t go far enough to protect the planet (行星) from global warming. The agreement was 28 at COP28 the United Nations climate meeting in Dubai. United Ara Emirates. Representatives (代表) 29 nearly 200 countries took part in the meeting. The 30 was to reach agreements that will help slow global warming. One of the big questions about COP28 was whether countries would agree to stop producing fossil fuels (called a “phase-out”), or would simply agree to produce less (called a “phase-down”) Over 100 countries, 31 the United States and the European Union, were pushing for a phase-out. But countries like Saudi Arabia and India 32 this idea. These countries either depend heavily on fossil fuels, or on the money they 33 by selling them. Because of this disagreement, the final deal doesn’t mention a phase-out or a phase-down. 34 , it calls for “transitioning (转型) away from fossil fuels”. That’s a huge 35 to many people who had hoped for a stronger position. But it’s also the first time a COP meeting has 36 moving away from fossil fuels. The agreement calls for a huge 37 in clean energy. Around 130 countries have 38 to produce three times as much renewable energy by 2030.

You might throw them away, sell them or give them to people in need. No matter which way you choose, it’s always you who have to decide what to do. However, California decided to push clothing companies to take care of the old clothes. As a result, the state passed the first US clothing recycling law (法律) on Sept 28, 2024. This new law is expected to make less pollution. In 2021, about 1.2 million tons of old clothes were thrown away in California. While 95% are reusable or recyclable, only 15% are actually recycled. The law said that companies making clothes have to set up a program to reuse, repair and recycle their goods. What’s more, they would have to pay for the costs of the whole program. More than 150 groups, including environmental groups and some stores like Ikea, agree with the law. It would do good to the environment. It could also create over 1,000 new green jobs, reported The Guardian. As a main polluter, the fashion industry (时尚产业) causes nearly 10% of the world’s carbon emissions (碳排放), according to the United Nations. Other countries like France and the Netherlands also have laws on clothing recycling programs. In France, for example, there are 47,000 recycling centers. 51．What does the numbers in Paragraph 2 show? A．The problem of clothes waste is serious. B．Companies are worried about the law. C．The new law has had a great influence. D．Too many clothes are produced each year. 52．What do the companies have to do according to the law? A．Reduce the number of products. B．Sell their goods at a low price. C．Set up a new environmental group. D．Pay for the clothing recycling program. 53．What’s the best title for the text? A．How to Reuse and Recycle Old Clothes at Home B．The Rise of Green Jobs Because of the New Law C．Fashion Industry Becomes Important in California D．New Law Pushes Companies to Reduce Fashion Waste In the 13th century, Marco Polo discovered money made of paper in China. The West didn’t have such kind of money until the 15th century. However, the Chinese began to use it in the 7th century. Paper was invented by a Chinese man called Cai Lun almost 2,000 years ago. But it was not made in Europe until the year 1100. A German discovered that he could make the best paper from trees 400 years later. After that, countries rich in forests, such as Canada, America and Finland became the most important ones in paper making. Paper is quite useful in our life. It is the carrier of writing and printing. Painters use it to describe the beauty of the world, writers use it to tell the warmth of the world, and educators use it to spread knowledge. But do you know that paper can be used for keeping warm? In Finland, the farmers wear paper boots (靴子) to keep their feet warm in the snow. However, we have to understand that paper still comes from trees now. Every day people throw away about 2,800 tons of paper in our city. If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth some day in the near future. So we must start saving paper right now before it is too late. We can use both sides of every piece of paper and make useful things out of used paper. When shopping, we can use fewer paper bags and reuse them if we have some. 54．When did the Chinese begin to use paper money? A．In the 13th century. B．In the 14th century. C．In the 15th century. D．In the 7th century. 55．Canada became an important country in paper making because ________. A．it was a large country B．it was a rich country C．it had a lot of forests D．it discovered the best paper 56．The third paragraph mainly tells us ________. A．where paper was invented B．what paper is used for C．when Finland invented paper D．how we can save paper 57．Why does the writer write the last two paragraphs? A．To remind us of saving paper. B．To share the use of paper bags. C．To introduce the ways of inventing paper. D．To tell us to plant more trees. If you put a recycling bin in your kitchen, good for you! You’ve made the first step to recycling, but here are other things that parents and kids can do to make recycling work better. You’ve probably just got a rubbish bin where everything goes in your bedroom. But it’s a good idea to put a special bin for recycling paper. Then when it goes full, you can empty it into a larger recycling bin in the kitchen. You can also put a small recycling bin in the bathroom for any useless paper there. Before you throw an item into the recycling bin, stop and think if you can use it again. Take plastic or glass items with yoghurt (酸奶), for example. After eating up the yoghurt, you can continue to use them for storing another food item. If you decide to put an item in the recycling bin, it’s very important to follow this method. If it has food or drink in it, you must clean it before you put it in the recycling bin. It can’t be recycled with food still in it. You should put the item under the running water for a few seconds to clean it. This saves time for the workers in the recycling center to do more important work. You mustn’t just do recycling for several months or even years and then return to your old habits. Recycling is a whole life task, so we’d better make recycling our new habit. 58．What’s the main idea of this passage? A．Rubbish in the house. B．What to do with the waste paper.

On April 20, 2024, he and many volunteers started a five-week activity to pick up rubbish from five beaches along the Southern California coast and even some beaches in Mexico. He has collected about 2 million bottles from beaches, lakes and rivers since he was 2 years old. “The rubbish ends up in the ocean, and animals are eating it,” Ryan told The Orange County Register. “I really can’t endure the pollution any more. Picking up a piece of rubbish may save a turtle’s life.” Ryan first learned about the influence of pollution at the Pacific Marine Mammal Center (PMMC太平洋海洋哺乳动物中心) in Laguna Beach. Watching the videos of ocean pollution there encouraged him to think about what he could do to help save them. From a young age, he has developed a love for recycling. He kept collecting rubbish and bottles for a long time. One day, Ryan knew from the workers in PMMC that saving sea animals needed money. “Why not sell the bottles?” he thought. In 2017, Ryan handed a $10, 000 check to the PMMC after picking up 50, 000 pounds of rubbish and more than 200, 000 recyclable bottles. Ryan has also traveled worldwide, speaking to kids about what kids can do for the protection of sea animals. He said, “It’s meaningful. I’ll keep on doing it.” 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 63．What does the underlined word “endure” mean in Paragraph 2? A．Feel. B．Bear. C．Agree. D．Believe. 64．Why did Ryan decide to save sea animals?

In 2008, the UN regarded June 8 as World Oceans Day. It is so important that it is now celebrated in over 100 countries around the world. It’s a day to think about the important role that the ocean plays in our lives, the dangers that our oceans are facing and the action we can take to protect the ocean. 2 ·It is home to many plants and animals on earth. ·Sea plants provide us with 70 % of the oxygen we breathe. ·It controls our climate (气候), providing heat in winter and cool air in summer. ·It also provides us with food and medicine. When people talk of exploring (开发) the sea, there are two different points. No: Sea exploration has caused many problems and will continue to cause more. More exploration means more pollution. One of the worst is plastic pollution. Many birds and fish died of this. Mining for resources (资源开采) harms a lot, especially in the Arctic. The thickest, oldest and hardest sea ice around it is melting. Climate change is warning us that something is very wrong. Overfishing is another problem. Whales and dolphins are also killed for their meat or for so-called research. Although this was not allowed in 1982, some countries are still hurt these clever animals. Yes: To truly understand our planet, we must explore the oceans. For example, some research can help answer some important questions such as climate change. We need to understand what is happening to our planet so that we can take action. Therefore, more research is necessary. Understanding more about the sea will also help us manage its resources better. It may help us discover new medicines, as well as new sources of food and energy. Getting to the deep ocean may also help us to predict events such as earthquakes. The population of the world is growing and we need new resources for future development. There are probably more resources under the sea and ice, not just oil and gas but also valuable minerals. As we all know, the ocean is the treasure to our life. Now it is crying out for our help! Remember, only when we get on well with nature, like respecting the ocean, can our world be a better place. Let’s take action now and make a difference for our future. 78．When is the World Oceans Day? 79．What’s the best title of the Chart 1? 80．What’s the worst pollution that the sea exploration cause? 81．What can we get from the sea exploration? 82．Do you think which is more important, the sea exploration or sea protection? How can we do that? 根据短文内容完成表格，每空一词。 You may have heard of the saying “The Yangtze River is China’s mother river.” The main route of the Yangtze is almost 6, 400 km in length. As the world’s third longest river, its valley (流域) covers one-fifth of China’s land area. The Yangtze River Economic (经济) covers 11 provinces and cities, making up about 40 percent of China’s total population and GDP. The mother river is in great need of protection because something is wrong with it. For example, because of over-fishing and water pollution, a kind of fish has died out after surviving for 150 million years. It’s time for us to take action from now on. Luckily, laws have been developed to stop fishing in all of its natural waterways. Those who are caught fishing will be fined at most 500, 000 yuan.

However, only 3% of the water is fit for human use, and the rest is frozen or salty. According to a report by WWF, water shortage (短缺) influences nearly 27% of the world’s population. Many reasons cause water shortage. The first is climate (气候) change. The heat caused by climate change leads to water drying out. The next is water pollution, which makes the limited water unsafe for using. What’s more, the human population has more than doubled, and today 41% of world’s population is badly in need of water. So what are the results of water shortage? Firstly, people lack enough water to drink. Water shortage brings about hunger. Plants can not grow when there is not enough water. As a result, there is less food for people. Therefore, it’s time to take action. Here are three ways for us to save water in daily life. First, take shorter showers. Save a minute or two of your shower time. Millions of people doing even the little things makes a difference. Second, if you forget to turn off a tap, all those wasted drops add up—sometimes 5,300 liters of water a year. Third, reuse water. Collect water after washing vegetables and pour it on your plants. 88 89 90 91 92 请阅读下面短文，根据语篇内容，在方框内的缩写文章中，填入与短文意思最符合的单词，并将答案写在答题卡相应的位置上。每空一词。 When talking about the environment, some people believe it’s the government’s duty to help the earth out. Actually, everyone can make a big difference to the environment by starting with small things. We can make our own choices about protecting the environment. In the daily life, we can recycle and reuse many things. Recycling involves cutting down on waste and energy use by turning used things such as plastic bottles into new products. Reusing involves cutting down on waste by reusing things such as shopping bags. Another way we can help the environment is to save energy. We should remember to turn things off when we’re not using them. We should also use less air conditioning, use energy-saving light bulbs and turn things off when we are not at home. All these things help protect the environment. Local food is better for the environment because of transportation pollution. The fewer miles the food has to travel, the less pollution there will be. We can buy local food at stores, go to a local farmer’s market, or even directly go to a farm to pick up fruit and vegetables! In addition, we can cut down on meat because vegetables take far less energy to produce than meat. Everyone can make a big difference to the environmental protection.
