We left in my car just after lunch and spent the afternoon in a big shopping centre.

Most people just throw them away. In 2014, people around the world produced 41.8 million tons of electronic waste (e-waste) and only recycled 6.5 million tons, producing 7.1 million tons of waste. China ranked second, with 6 million tons. It’s important to pay attention to e-waste. It can either be valuable or harmful, depending on how we treat it. “E-waste is a valuable ‘urban mine (城市矿藏)’,” said David Malone, the UN under-secretary-general (副秘书长). The gold, silver, iron (铁) and copper (铜) in e-waste around the world are worth some ＄52 billion (322.1 billion yuan). These materials can be reused and help us save resources. “But if people throw their electronics away, toxic (有毒的) chemicals can get into the soil or air, affecting the environment and people’s health.” Malone said. To help reduce e-waste, the first thing we can do is to buy longer-lasting electronic devices. If you have unwanted electronics, such as aging toys or cellphones, find a new home for them by giving them to charities. You can also see if there are any companies that offer recycling programs for their products. Apple, for instance, now offers people a discount (折扣) in China if they hand in their used devices when buying new ones. The company will test and repair the used devices and sell them at lower prices. 46．When a computer is broken or no longer wanted, most people usually ________. A．throw it away B．sell it to a second-hand shop C．put it in a closet D．donate it to a charity 47．How much e-waste was recycled in 2014? A．41.8 million tons. B．6.5 million tons. C．7.1 million tons. D．6 million tons. 48．The valuable materials in e-waste do NOT include ________. A．silver B．copper C．steel D．iron 49．Which of the following is TRUE? A．China produced the most electronic waste in 2014. B．E-waste does more harm to the environment than to people’s health. C．People can buy new devices at lower price if they sell their old ones. D．Some electronics companies have their own recycling programs. 50．What does the story mainly tell us? A．How much e-waste people produce each. B．What people can do to make money from e-waste. C．Why and how we should recycle our e-waste.

Recently I had a business trip to Tianjin. I left my Beijing apartment (公寓) and walked half a street to the subway station. About twelve stops later, I reached the high- speed rail station. After two minutes of security (安检), I picked up my ticket, which I had bought on my phone while on the subway. Then I walked to the platform (站台) and got on the train. Twenty-eight minutes later I was in the centre of the beautiful city—Tianjin. I could enjoy a nice walk along the riverside towards my hotel. It is amazing that the whole experience took no more than a few hours, with no cars, no airports, no credit cards (信用卡) and no long lines, just my smartphone, only a few US dollars and comfortable walking shoes. In most places in the developed world, there is no experience like this. But China is different.

And it’s one symbol of a new China and a sign of China’s strength as well. 16．Mike Smith is from ________. A．America B．Canada C．Australia D．the UK 17．Mike bought his ticket to Tianjin ________ .

Most people just throw them away. In 2014, people around the world produced 41.8 million tons of electronic waste (e-waste) and only recycled 6.5 million tons, producing 7.1 million tons of waste. China ranked second, with 6 million tons. It’s important to pay attention to e-waste. It can either be valuable or harmful, depending on how we treat it. “E-waste is a valuable ‘urban mine (城市矿藏)’,” said David Malone, the UN under-secretary-general (副秘书长). The gold, silver, iron (铁) and copper (铜) in e-waste around the world are worth some ＄52 billion (322.1 billion yuan). These materials can be reused and help us save resources. “But if people throw their electronics away, toxic (有毒的) chemicals can get into the soil or air, affecting the environment and people’s health.” Malone said. To help reduce e-waste, the first thing we can do is to buy longer-lasting electronic devices. If you have unwanted electronics, such as aging toys or cellphones, find a new home for them by giving them to charities. You can also see if there are any companies that offer recycling programs for their products. Apple, for instance, now offers people a discount (折扣) in China if they hand in their used devices when buying new ones. The company will test and repair the used devices and sell them at lower prices. 46．When a computer is broken or no longer wanted, most people usually ________. A．throw it away B．sell it to a second-hand shop C．put it in a closet D．donate it to a charity 47．How much e-waste was recycled in 2014? A．41.8 million tons. B．6.5 million tons. C．7.1 million tons. D．6 million tons. 48．The valuable materials in e-waste do NOT include ________. A．silver B．copper C．steel D．iron 49．Which of the following is TRUE? A．China produced the most electronic waste in 2014. B．E-waste does more harm to the environment than to people’s health. C．People can buy new devices at lower price if they sell their old ones. D．Some electronics companies have their own recycling programs. 50．What does the story mainly tell us? A．How much e-waste people produce each. B．What people can do to make money from e-waste. C．Why and how we should recycle our e-waste. D．How e-waste has affected the environment. Passage 3 （23-24八年级上·天津南开·期中）Cycling (骑行) is a wonderful sport. We enjoy it when we ride and race. But why do we love cycling so much? As a surfer (冲浪者), I surf alone. Sometimes I see another surfer walking along the beach towards me and I hope they can choose another place. Cycling is different. We can often go on group rides with friends. Cycling contributes to the environment (环境). Bicycles don’t make any pollution. If more people use bikes, not their cars, there won’t be so much pollution (污染). Older people can cycle too. Grandpa Carl rides a tricycle. It has three wheels (轮子). He says he can’t balance (保持平衡) on a two-wheeled bicycle any more. He rides his tricycle to the shops and takes some bags with him. His tricycle has two baskets.
