阅读短文,从下面所列选项中,选出最佳选项填入对应空白处,使短文通顺、连贯。(选项中有一项多余)
One of the fastest and cheapest ways to protect the earth is to plant trees across the world. Trees help the planet by taking in CO₂ (a kind of gas that can make the planet warmer) to make their food. ___31___ Isn’t it right?
In fact, it’s not quite right. It also depends on where you choose to plant the trees. Scientists have learned that not all places are good for planting trees. They made a special map to show the best places to plant trees. ___32___
As far as we know, trees are usually dark and absorb (吸收) heat from the sun. But light colors, like white, do the opposite. They reflect (反射) sunlight. Snow and ice are very good at reflecting sunlight, which helps keep the planet cool. So what will happen if we plant dark trees in icy places? ___33___ So, these are not the best places to plant trees.
At the same time, scientists found that trees can be very helpful in certain places, for example, in warm and wet areas like the Amazon (亚马逊) and Congo Basin (刚果盆地). ___34___ And they don’t change how much sunlight is reflected. These are great places to plant trees!
___35___ With this research, people can make better choices about where to plant trees to help cool the earth better. As well as planting trees, scientists also suggest greater effort should be put into managing existing (现存的) forested areas.
A. Trees can help save water.
B. In these places trees can take in a lot of CO₂.
C. In these places, trees can really help cool the planet.
D. But scientists say that planting trees is still a good idea.
E. These places will take in more heat instead of reflecting it.
F. So some people say planting trees is the best way to help cool the earth.

【导语】本文主要介绍了通过植树来保护地球并非随处可行。文章解释了为什么在冰雪覆盖的地区植树反而会加剧全球变暖,而在温暖湿润的地区植树则能有效吸收二氧化碳,从而科学地指导人们在何处植树才能真正帮助地球降温。
【31题详解】
根据“Trees help the planet by taking in CO₂…to make their food.”可知,此处指出树木通过吸收二氧化碳来制造食物,从而帮助地球。因此,空处应是一个基于前文的普遍观点或结论。选项F“所以一些人说植树是帮助地球降温的最好方法。”符合语境。故选F。
【32题详解】
根据“Scientists have learned that not all places are good for planting trees. They made a special map to show the best places to plant trees.”可知,空处应进一步说明这张地图的作用或展示的结果,即指出哪些地方能真正起到降温作用。选项C“在这些地方,树木真的可以帮助地球降温。”符合语境。故选C。
【33题详解】
根据“trees are usually dark and absorb (吸收) heat from the sun…Snow and ice are very good at reflecting sunlight”以及“So what will happen if we plant dark trees in icy places?”可知,空处应回答在原本反射阳光的冰雪地上种植吸热树木的后果。选项E“这些地方将会吸收更多的热量而不是反射它。”符合语境。故选E。
【34题详解】
根据“in warm and wet areas like the Amazon (亚马逊) and Congo Basin (刚果盆地).”可知,这里指的是适合种树的特定区域。空处应说明在这些区域种树的好处。选项B“在这些地方,树木可以吸收大量的二氧化碳。”符合语境。故选B。
【35题详解】
根据“With this research, people can make better choices about where to plant trees…As well as planting trees, scientists also suggest…”可知,尽管并非所有地方都适合植树,但科学家仍然肯定植树的价值。选项D“但是科学家说植树仍然是一个好主意。”符合语境。故选D。

There are many different kinds of pollution in our world. It is common to hear about pollution in the air and water, but have you ever heard of light pollution?
Light pollution is a man-made problem, and it has increased by 50% in the last 20 years. The bright lights in big cities make people’s life safer and easier. However, they have affected the health of people and animals around the world at the same time.
Everyone has their own natural sleep-wake cycles. For many people, darkness is important to tell the body that it is time to relax and go to sleep. When there is too much light in the environment, the body produces less melatonin (褪黑激素), which makes sleeping difficult. Being in a bright environment at night can also increase worry and pressure.
Our bright lights are harmful to many animals, too. Take birds for example. Birds use the light of the moon to migrate (迁徙), but with so much man-made light in the environment, they often get lost.
Many countries and groups have taken action against light pollution. In Canada, bird-friendly laws on lighting have been passed, and many big cities turn off their lights during migration seasons. The International Dark-Sky Association was set up in the USA in 1988. The group works with communities around the world to save and enjoy the darkness of night.
There are some things that you can do for light pollution. For example, stop using your electronic devices (设备) one or two hours before you go to sleep. Also, turn off lights that you are not using, especially those outside.
The passage is mainly about ____46____.(不超过2词)
Fill in the blanks according to the passage.
Bright lights have affected the health of people and animals around the world.
Human
Too much light makes sleeping difficult.
Being in a bright environment at night can ____47____.(不超过5词)

Many countries and groups have taken action against light pollution, for example, ____49____.(列举一项具体的措施即可,不超过10词)
What did you do to prevent light pollution in your daily life?
____________50____________.(结合自身实际,不超过20词)

【答案】范文:
To Be a Greener Person at School
School is our second home. Let’s start with little things in our daily life to be a greener person.
First of all, we are encouraged to go to school by bike or on foot instead of taking cars, which contributes to low-carbon living. Secondly, garbage sorting is of great importance. Thirdly, saving energy matters a lot. Please remember to turn off the lights when we leave the classroom. Finally, we can take an active part in planting trees to beautify our campus. As for me, I suggest we save paper by printing on both sides.
Let’s take action now to build a green school!
