Scientists have worked hard to make it strong and long-lasting. Now, they are finding that plastic is not decomposing (分解) and that the landfill (填埋场) is full of rubbish. 1 People must be careful about how they throw away plastic. 2 Some stores ask customers to return plastic bags. These can be burned because they do not give off poisonous fumes (有毒气体). Look at the bottom of each plastic bottle you buy. If it has a recycling symbol with a number in it, you will know it can be recycled. If you cannot recycle a container, try to use it for something else. When you are doing with toys or materials made of plastic, try to think of someone else who can use them. 3 Recycling centers sell used plastic to companies that make it into new materials. 4 So we can make full use of the plastic and make the waste into treasure. Plastic is not a natural material, so it is difficult for it to decompose into the earth. 5 What creative ways can you think of to reuse plastic? A．Sharing toys is a great way to recycle. B．Plastic containers (容器) and bags are also polluting beaches and hurting animals. C．For that reason, it is important for us to find ways to reuse plastic. D．One thing we all can do is recycling our plastic. E．Recycled plastic can be used to make something useful. 二、阅读理解：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项（共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） Terrible weather events are harming the planet, and experts warn of even greater results to come. The sea ice loss and the Arctic melting ice caused by climate change have increased much in the last ten years. So they have cut down the number of polar bears and seals because polar bears depend on sea ice for hunting seals. According to the data from the WMO, temperatures on the Antarctica (南极洲) just hit 18.3℃, which is higher than the record of 17.5℃ in March, 2015. Moreover, temperatures in this area have warmed about 3℃ over the last 50 years. Although such temperatures might be considered pleasant for a picnic or a hiking trip, this is the Antarctica we are talking about. It is home to the most inhospitable environment on the planet because it is supposed to be an extremely cold place. In fact, the average temperature of the continent's central area is -57℃. Besides, many places are experiencing the extreme weather this summer. Australia is undergoing its worst drought (干旱) since the 1930s, leaving bushfire burning so long and causing many deaths. Meanwhile in Europe, crops in the northwest are suffering the driest weather in the past 80 years. Recently West Texas in America has also gone through its worst drought in more than 70 years, while floods have hit eastern and southern China. "Climate change is bad for us human beings, which causes direct health problems. I'm afraid there will be more common events like the one that 30,000 to 50,000 persons died in Europe in 2003 due to the heatwave there,” Professor Schwartz said. “It will also cause more air pollution, diseases and lacks of clean water and so on.” 6. What doesn't bring down the number of polar bears according to this passage? A. Hunting. B. Climate change. C. The sea ice loss. D. The Arctic melting ice. 7. What can you know from this passage? A. Antarctica is pleasant for a hiking trip. B. Extreme weather led to wildfire burning in Europe. C. Climate change will cause air pollution and diseases. D. The temperatures on the Antarctica hit the highest in March, 2015. 8. What does the underlined word “inhospitable” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Comfortable to live. B. Friendly to live. C. Unhealthy to live. D. Unfit to live. 9. Which place didn't experience drought according to the passage? A. Europe. B. Australia. C. America. D. China. 10. What is the main idea of this passage? A. The whole planet is drier and drier. B. The Antarctica is colder and colder. C. Climate change is getting worse and worse. D. The number of polar bears is smaller and smaller. 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 编写说明：基于中职学生英语知识能力普遍薄弱的学情特点，我们始终坚持“以生为本”的教育理念，深度融合支架式教学理论，深度解读最新的《中等职业学校英语课程标准》，匠心打造了契合职教高考命题特色的《英语 基础模块2》（高教版2023修订版）《一课一练》专辑，专辑共40练。 本卷为《英语 基础模块2》（高教版2023修订版） Unit 8 Green Earth （Culture Understanding）的课后作业。 《英语 基础模块2》（高教版2023修订版） Unit 8 Green Earth 一课一练（39） Culture Understanding 一、阅读下列短文，在空白处填写适当的选项（共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） We use plastic every day.

In fact, the average temperature of the continent's central area is -57℃” 可知，南极极其寒冷，是 “不适合居住的” 环境，因此 “inhospitable” 意为 “不适宜居住的”。故选 D。 9．细节理解题。根据第三段可知，澳大利亚、欧洲、美国西得克萨斯均遭遇干旱，而中国东部和南部遭遇洪水，未提及干旱。故选 D。 10．主旨大意题。全文围绕气候变化带来的极端天气（冰融、升温、干旱、洪水等）及对生态和人类的影响展开，核心是 “气候变化越来越严重”。A、B、D 均为局部细节，无法概括主旨。故选 C。 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
