Have you ever noticed that the wind sounds different in winter? The scientist, Dr. Lin, has. For years, she has studied how 11 affects the sounds we hear. According to her research, the speed and 12 of the wind can change how sound waves travel. On a still day, sound seems to stay close to the ground. But when it’s very 13 , sound can be carried much farther away. This is also why temperature 14 influences sound. Warm air near the ground and cool air above can bend sound waves, making a conversation from a distance seem much 15 . Dr. Lin’s work has many practical uses. For example, it can help airports decide where to place their noise monitors. It can also help us predict when a noisy 16 from a nearby factory might bother people in a certain area. “It’s a fact that weather is always at work, shaping our world in ways we don’t always see,” says Dr. Lin. “My job is to make those ‘ 17 ’ forces visible.”

二、阅读理解
Our neighbourhood has started a new green project called “Zero Waste Community”. The project aims to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills by 80% within one year.
How does it work? First, every household receives three different bins: one for recyclables (plastic, glass, paper), one for kitchen waste, and one for other waste. Second, volunteers collect recyclables from each building every Tuesday and Friday. Third, the community has set up a repair café where people can bring broken items like lamps, toys, and clothes to be fixed for free.
The results have been amazing. In the first three months, the neighbourhood recycled 5 tons of plastic and 3 tons of paper. The repair café has saved over 200 items from being thrown away. Many residents have changed their habits. Mrs. Chen, a retired teacher, said, “I used to throw away everything. Now I sort my waste carefully and take my broken kettle to the repair café.”
The project also encourages creative reuse. Last month, they held a competition where people made art from waste. A student named Li Ming won first prize with a robot made entirely from plastic bottles and old comic books.
The government is now considering spreading this project to other neighbourhoods. The success of “Zero Waste Community” proves that small actions can make a big difference.

This March, China has experienced unusual weather changes. On March 25, Shanghai recorded 30°C, breaking its 1933 record for the earliest hot day. Normally, Shanghai’s first 30°C day comes in late April or May.
But the heat didn’t last. A cold wave hit China from March 24 to 30, causing temperature drops of over 20°C in some areas. Northern China faced its coldest days between March 27-29, while southern China will feel similar cold around March 29-30.
Hot Days and Big Changes
In March, 20 cities like Changsha, Hefei, and Zhengzhou saw temperatures swing wildly. From March 1-24, daily highs jumped between below 10°C to over 22°C.
Hefei had the most extreme change: temperatures dropped 20°C in one day. On March 3, it went from 28°C at 2 p.m. to 14.8°C by 3 p.m. due to a strong cold wind.
Many places also broke heat records. Over 300 weather stations reported their hottest March days. Cities in Henan, Hubei, and Zhejiang might see their earliest 35°C days ever.
Cold Wave Coming
As March ends, temperatures will fall sharply. 11 cities like Lanzhou, Guiyang, and Xining might see 20°C drops within 48 hours. For example, Xining could go from 18°C to -3°C.
Such sudden cold weather is rare. In the past 74 years, only Guiyang had over 10 cases of 20°C drops in March. This year, Xining and Lanzhou may break their own records.
Scientists say climate change is making March weather hotter and less predictable. They advise checking weather reports daily and dressing in layers (分层穿衣).

B.China’s March weather is becoming more extreme
C.Cold waves are better than heatwaves
D.People should move to warmer cities
The Impact of Extreme Weather on Our Lives
In recent years, extreme weather has become a common topic. It has a big impact on our daily lives. When a heatwave comes, the temperature rises sharply. People have to stay in air-conditioned rooms to avoid the scorching heat. It also leads to an increase in the use of electricity, which may cause power shortages in some areas.
On the other hand, heavy rainfall and floods can destroy houses and roads. Many people have to leave their homes and move to safer places. The agricultural production (农业生产) is also badly affected, which may lead to the rise of food prices.
Moreover, strong winds and snowstorms can disrupt transportation. Flights are canceled, trains are delayed, and roads are blocked. This makes it difficult for people to travel and may affect the supply of goods.
In conclusion, extreme weather brings great challenges to our lives. We should take action to protect ourselves and reduce its negative impact.
46.According to the passage, ________ has become a common topic in recent years.
A.air pollution B.global warming
C.climate change D.extreme weather
47.People ________ when a heatwave comes.
A.leave their homes B.go outside to enjoy the sun
C.use more electricity for heating D.stay in air-conditioned rooms
48.One effect of heavy rainfall and floods is that ________.
A.it helps people travel easily B.it destroys houses and roads
C.it reduces the use of electricity D.it improves agricultural production
49.What may happen to food prices due to extreme weather?
A.They may rise. B.They may be unaffected.
C.They may decrease. D.They may remain the same.

The city of Metropolis was recently hit by an unusual weather event: a massive and sudden temperature drop. Within a single hour, the temperature fell from a pleasant 22 degrees Celsius to a freezing 0 degrees Celsius. This rapid change caused chaos. The wet roads immediately turned into sheets of ice. Many drivers, not used to such conditions, lost control of their cars, leading to several minor accidents. Pupils on their way to school had to walk very slowly and carefully. One pupil, Tom, was on his way to a skating rink. He ironically noted that he no longer needed to go indoors to skate; he could now skate on the street! However, the fun stopped when a fire broke out in an old building. The extreme cold had caused a water pipe to burst, which then shorted an electrical circuit. Firefighters were soon on the scene, taking action to put out the fire, which was made more difficult by the icy conditions. The city’s mayor urged all citizens to stay indoors unless absolutely necessary. The temperature did not return to normal for several days.
51.How fast did the temperature drop?
52.Why did the roads become icy so quickly?
53.Where was Tom originally going?
54.What caused the fire in the old building?

Jim: I am in the mountains with my cousins. It’s not warm here. It’s -10℃ in the daytime. Nights and early mornings are -20℃. But the snow here is very beautiful! It’s a great place to go skiing and skating.
Bob: There are many black clouds in the sky. The wind is strong. The birds cannot fly. And it’s hard for people to walk and to drive, too. I think heavy rain is coming. It’s dangerous to go out of the house right now.
Linda: It’s hot here today. The sky looks very blue, and there are no clouds. I am boating with my family. The water is clean and warm. It’s really a good day for relaxing.
55.Where is Sara?

阅读下面短文。按照题目要求用英语回答问题,并将答案写到答题卡的相应位置。
At Northglenn Middle School in the US, students are doing something amazing. They have a fashion show (时装表演), but it’s not like any other fashion show. It’s called the “Trashion Show”! What’s “trashion”? It’s a fashion made from trash (垃圾)! The beautiful clothes are not new. They are made of things like chip bags, CDs, and old clothes.
But the Trashion Show is not just about making cool clothes. The students have the show to teach people to recycle (回收利用) things. Most of the trash is bad for nature. They think everyone can help take care of nature by keeping it clean.
“This activity lets me know that we often throw away things without thinking,” said Adan Magallanes, a Trashion Show designer. “It’s cool to know we can reuse things like old books, clothes and other trash to make something new. Also, we can help nature at the same time.”
So, before throwing anything away, _________. Maybe it can be reused in a new way. Most importantly, recycling helps protect our environment (保护环境) for the future.
60.What things do students use to make the clothes?
61.Why do students have the Trashion Show?
62.How can everyone help take care of nature?
63.Who is Adan Magallanes?
64.Complete the sentence in the last paragraph with proper words.
Answer the questions.
Have you ever wondered what happens to your old toothbrushes, shampoo bottles and food wrappers? Most people throw them into the bin without thinking. But did you know that a family of four creates about 1,000 kilograms of household waste every year? That is as heavy as a small car!
The good news is that up to 60% of household waste can be recycled or composted. For example, vegetable peels and eggshells can become compost for plants. Paper and cardboard can be made into new notebooks. Plastic bottles can be turned into jackets or even furniture.
However, if we mix all our waste together, recycling becomes very difficult. A banana peel can ruin a whole truckload of paper recycling. That is why sorting waste at home is so important.
Many communities now have four different bins: blue for paper, green for glass, yellow for plastic and metal, and brown for kitchen waste. Some cities even use smart bins that weigh your waste and give you points. You can exchange the points for discounts at local shops.
So, what can you do? Start by putting two small bins in your kitchen — one for wet waste (food scraps) and one for dry waste (paper, plastic). When a bin is full, take it to the correct community bin. Remember: when you sort right, you help the planet fight!
65.How much household waste does a family of four create per year?
66.What is one benefit of sorting waste correctly?
67.Can a banana peel affect paper recycling? Why or why not?
68.What can you get by using smart bins in some cities?
69.What two bins can you start with in your kitchen?
70.Do you think it is necessary for every family to sort waste? Why or why not? (Give at least two reasons)

The Rooftop Garden
In many big cities, space for gardens is very l 76 . But some clever communities have found a solution: rooftop gardens. They turn empty flat roofs into green spaces full of vegetables and flowers.
A rooftop garden does many good things. F 77 , it helps cool down the building below. In summer, the plants stop the roof from getting too hot. That means less energy for air conditioning. S 78 , the garden catches rainwater. This reduces flooding in the streets. The plants also clean the air by taking in carbon dioxide and giving out o 79 .
How do people start a rooftop garden? They must check if the roof is strong e 80 . Then they add special light soil and plant seeds. Some communities even keep beehives on the roof to help p 81 the flowers. It is hard work, but the fresh vegetables and beautiful views make it all worth it.
Living in a green neighborhood is very important. We can see many beautiful 82 (flower) and green 83 (tree) everywhere. The air is 84 (fresh) and the water is clear. We should take good care of our environment.
We can do many small things to help. For example, we can take the bus instead of 85 (take) cars. We should separate the rubbish into different groups and 86 (recycle) it. We should also stop 87 (throw) rubbish everywhere.
It is 88 (importance) to protect the environment. Everyone should play a part in 89 (save) the earth. Let’s work together to make our neighborhood more 90 (beauty). I believe our environment will become 91 (good) and better.
Complete the passage with the given words in their proper forms.(用所给单词的适当形式完成短文,使其内容通顺。)

With air conditioning and fans, we can still stay cool and comfortable. The 96 (season) changes remind us of the importance of getting used to nature.
用括号中所给单词的适当形式完成短文。每空格限填一词。
Quebec (魁北克) is the largest province in Canada. It lies in the southeast of the country. Most of the land is not fitting for 97 (day) living. But you can experience different kinds of weather in different seasons.
Spring is a wonderful time. The 98 (windy) starts to blow gently. Nature comes back to life. People can go boating and fishing in the rivers and lakes.
When summer arrives, it gets hot 99 (quick). Many people take vacations during this season. Summer is the 100 (good) time to enjoy outdoor activities like hiking and biking.

【导语】本文讲述了天气对我们生活的重要影响,通过英国去年热浪的例子说明极端天气的影响,分析了天气变化的人为原因,并呼吁我们保护环境、热爱自然。
1.句意:气温达到了新的记录。
根据语境“a new record”,表示“达到新纪录”,reached“达到”符合语境。saw“看见”、got“得到”、went“去”均与“气温创纪录”的语境不匹配。
2.句意:天气如此炎热,以至于一些地方发生了火灾。
固定搭配so…that…表示“如此…… 以至于……”,符合“天气太热导致火灾”的语境。
3.句意:火车不得不减速。
根据前文提到高温天气,结合常识,高温会影响列车运行,slow down是固定搭配,表示“减速”、run“跑”、walk“走”、jump“跳”均不符合语境。
4.句意:一些学校关闭,学生们待在家里保持凉爽。
根据前文的高温天气,学生待在家里是为了“保持凉爽”,cool“凉爽的”符合语境。warm“温暖的”、hot“热的”、cold“冷的”均不符合高温天气下的行为逻辑。
5.句意:动物园尽力保护动物。
根据后文“给熊、猴子等动物提供冰镇食物”,说明动物园的行为是为了“保护”动物,protect“保护”符合语境。kill“杀死”、catch“抓住”、feed“喂养”都不符合语境。
6.句意:这些年来,天气一直在变化。
固定搭配over the years表示“这些年来”,常与完成时搭配,描述一段时间内的变化。
7.句意:这些活动使天气变得更糟。
前文提到“砍伐森林、每天开车”,这些都是人类的活动,activities“活动”符合语境。things“事物”、lives“生活”、games“游戏”与前文列举的行为不匹配。
8.句意:现在越来越多的人知道保护环境很重要。
根据上下文,环境恶化让人们意识到保护环境的重要性,important“重要的”符合语境。interesting“有趣的”、boring“无聊的”、dangerous“危险的”均与语境不符。
9.句意:我们应该热爱自然,享受每一个季节。
根据前文列举的春夏秋冬四个季节,every season表示“每一个季节”,符合语境。all“全部”后接复数名词,both“两者都”、either“两者之一”均不适用。
10.句意:当我们关爱地球时,天气会对我们更有利。
全文围绕“天气”展开,前文提到人为活动让天气变差,因此保护地球会让“天气”变好,weather“天气”符合语境。season“季节”、temperature“温度”、life“生活”均偏离了文章核心话题。
Have you ever noticed that the wind sounds different in winter? The scientist, Dr. Lin, has. For years, she has studied how 11 affects the sounds we hear. According to her research, the speed and 12 of the wind can change how sound waves travel. On a still day, sound seems to stay close to the ground. But when it’s very 13 , sound can be carried much farther away. This is also why temperature 14 influences sound. Warm air near the ground and cool air above can bend sound waves, making a conversation from a distance seem much 15 . Dr. Lin’s work has many practical uses. For example, it can help airports decide where to place their noise monitors. It can also help us predict when a noisy 16 from a nearby factory might bother people in a certain area. “It’s a fact that weather is always at work, shaping our world in ways we don’t always see,” says Dr. Lin. “My job is to make those ‘ 17 ’ forces visible.”

13.句意:但当风很大时,声音可以传播得更远。前文提到“On a still day(无风的日子)”,此处与之形成对比,“windy”表示“多风的”,符合“风大时声音传得更远”的语境。
14.句意:这也是为什么温度也会影响声音的原因。
前文已说明风会影响声音,此处补充温度的影响,“also”表示“也”,符合递进逻辑。
15.句意:地面附近的暖空气和上方的冷空气会使声波弯曲,让远处的对话听起来更近。结合物理常识与上下文,这种空气分层会让远处的声音传播得更清晰、更贴近听者,“closer”(更近的)符合语境,体现声波弯曲后声音听起来距离更近的效果。
16.句意:它还可以帮助我们预测附近工厂的嘈杂动静何时会打扰到某个区域的人们。
“noisy action”可指代工厂发出的嘈杂活动/声响,符合“工厂噪音扰民”的语境。
17.句意:我的工作就是让那些看不见的力量变得可见。
前文提到“weather is always at work, shaping our world in ways we don’t always see”,说明这些力量是“看不见的”,“invisible”符合语境。

二、阅读理解
Our neighbourhood has started a new green project called “Zero Waste Community”. The project aims to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills by 80% within one year.
How does it work? First, every household receives three different bins: one for recyclables (plastic, glass, paper), one for kitchen waste, and one for other waste. Second, volunteers collect recyclables from each building every Tuesday and Friday. Third, the community has set up a repair café where people can bring broken items like lamps, toys, and clothes to be fixed for free.
The results have been amazing. In the first three months, the neighbourhood recycled 5 tons of plastic and 3 tons of paper. The repair café has saved over 200 items from being thrown away. Many residents have changed their habits. Mrs. Chen, a retired teacher, said, “I used to throw away everything. Now I sort my waste carefully and take my broken kettle to the repair café.”
The project also encourages creative reuse. Last month, they held a competition where people made art from waste. A student named Li Ming won first prize with a robot made entirely from plastic bottles and old comic books.
The government is now considering spreading this project to other neighbourhoods. The success of “Zero Waste Community” proves that small actions can make a big difference.

This March, China has experienced unusual weather changes. On March 25, Shanghai recorded 30°C, breaking its 1933 record for the earliest hot day. Normally, Shanghai’s first 30°C day comes in late April or May.
But the heat didn’t last. A cold wave hit China from March 24 to 30, causing temperature drops of over 20°C in some areas. Northern China faced its coldest days between March 27-29, while southern China will feel similar cold around March 29-30.
Hot Days and Big Changes
In March, 20 cities like Changsha, Hefei, and Zhengzhou saw temperatures swing wildly. From March 1-24, daily highs jumped between below 10°C to over 22°C.
Hefei had the most extreme change: temperatures dropped 20°C in one day. On March 3, it went from 28°C at 2 p.m. to 14.8°C by 3 p.m. due to a strong cold wind.
Many places also broke heat records. Over 300 weather stations reported their hottest March days. Cities in Henan, Hubei, and Zhejiang might see their earliest 35°C days ever.
Cold Wave Coming
As March ends, temperatures will fall sharply. 11 cities like Lanzhou, Guiyang, and Xining might see 20°C drops within 48 hours. For example, Xining could go from 18°C to -3°C.
Such sudden cold weather is rare. In the past 74 years, only Guiyang had over 10 cases of 20°C drops in March. This year, Xining and Lanzhou may break their own records.
Scientists say climate change is making March weather hotter and less predictable. They advise checking weather reports daily and dressing in layers (分层穿衣).
41.Which city broke its earliest 30°C day record on March 25?
A.Beijing B.Shanghai C.Guangzhou D.Chengdu
42.What is the main reason for warmer March weather in recent years?

B.China’s March weather is becoming more extreme
C.Cold waves are better than heatwaves
D.People should move to warmer cities
【答案】41.B 42.B 43.A 44.C 45.B
【导语】本文主要介绍的是中国三月的天气正变得更加极端。
41.根据第一段“This March, China has experienced unusual weather changes. On March 25, Shanghai recorded 30°C, breaking its 1933 record for the earliest hot day.”可知,是上海在3月25日打破了最早30°C的记录。
42.由最后一段“Scientists say climate change is making March weather hotter and less predictable.”可知,近年来三月天气更暖和的主要原因是气候变化。
43.根据语境“Scientists say climate change is making March weather hotter and less predictable. They advise checking weather reports daily and dressing in layers (分层穿衣).”,科学家说气候变化让三月天气更热且更难以预测,所以才建议每天查看天气预报和分层穿衣,可推测predictable意思是“容易预测的”,与easy to forecast意思相近.
44.从最后一段“They advise checking weather reports daily and dressing in layers (分层穿衣).”可知,在气温快速变化时,人们应该每天查看天气预报并分层穿衣。
45.文章主要讲述了2025年3月中国经历了不寻常的天气变化,气温波动大,打破了很多记录等,整体表明中国三月的天气变得更加极端,B选项符合文章主旨。
The Impact of Extreme Weather on Our Lives
In recent years, extreme weather has become a common topic. It has a big impact on our daily lives. When a heatwave comes, the temperature rises sharply. People have to stay in air-conditioned rooms to avoid the scorching heat. It also leads to an increase in the use of electricity, which may cause power shortages in some areas.
On the other hand, heavy rainfall and floods can destroy houses and roads. Many people have to leave their homes and move to safer places. The agricultural production (农业生产) is also badly affected, which may lead to the rise of food prices.
Moreover, strong winds and snowstorms can disrupt transportation. Flights are canceled, trains are delayed, and roads are blocked. This makes it difficult for people to travel and may affect the supply of goods.
In conclusion, extreme weather brings great challenges to our lives. We should take action to protect ourselves and reduce its negative impact.
46.According to the passage, ________ has become a common topic in recent years.
A.air pollution B.global warming
C.climate change D.extreme weather
47.People ________ when a heatwave comes.

46.根据第一段“In recent years, extreme weather has become a common topic.”,这直接说明“极端天气”已成为热门话题。
47.根据第二段“People have to stay in air-conditioned rooms to avoid the scorching heat.”,因此热浪来临时人们“待在空调房里”。
48.根据第三段“heavy rainfall and floods can destroy houses and roads.”,因此强降雨和洪水的一个影响是“摧毁房屋和道路”。
49.根据第三段“The agricultural production is also badly affected, which may lead to the rise of food prices.”,因此食品价格“可能上涨”。
50.根据最后一段“We should take action to protect ourselves and reduce its negative impact.”,因此我们应该“采取行动保护自己”。
三、任务型阅读
阅读下面短文,然后根据短文内容回答问题。
The city of Metropolis was recently hit by an unusual weather event: a massive and sudden temperature drop. Within a single hour, the temperature fell from a pleasant 22 degrees Celsius to a freezing 0 degrees Celsius. This rapid change caused chaos. The wet roads immediately turned into sheets of ice. Many drivers, not used to such conditions, lost control of their cars, leading to several minor accidents. Pupils on their way to school had to walk very slowly and carefully. One pupil, Tom, was on his way to a skating rink. He ironically noted that he no longer needed to go indoors to skate; he could now skate on the street! However, the fun stopped when a fire broke out in an old building. The extreme cold had caused a water pipe to burst, which then shorted an electrical circuit. Firefighters were soon on the scene, taking action to put out the fire, which was made more difficult by the icy conditions. The city’s mayor urged all citizens to stay indoors unless absolutely necessary. The temperature did not return to normal for several days.
51.How fast did the temperature drop?
52.Why did the roads become icy so quickly?
53.Where was Tom originally going?
54.What caused the fire in the old building?
【答案】51.Within a single hour. 52.Because the rapid temperature drop froze the wet roads immediately. 53.To a skating rink. 54.A burst water pipe.
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述Metropolis市遭遇突发剧烈降温,路面结冰引发混乱与事故,还因水管爆裂引发火灾,市长呼吁市民尽量待在室内,气温多日未恢复正常。
51.文中明确指出“Within a single hour, the temperature fell from a pleasant 22 degrees Celsius to a freezing 0 degrees Celsius”,说明温度在一小时内急剧下降。
52.文中提到“The wet roads immediately turned into sheets of ice”,结合前文“a massive and sudden temperature drop”可知,潮湿的路面在急剧降温的作用下迅速结冰。
53.文中直接描述“One pupil, Tom, was on his way to a skating rink”,说明Tom原本要去溜冰场。
54.文中指出“The extreme cold had caused a water pipe to burst, which then shorted an electrical circuit”,说明是极寒导致水管破裂,进而引发电路短路,最终造成了火灾。

What’s “trashion”? It’s a fashion made from trash (垃圾)! The beautiful clothes are not new. They are made of things like chip bags, CDs, and old clothes.
But the Trashion Show is not just about making cool clothes. The students have the show to teach people to recycle (回收利用) things. Most of the trash is bad for nature. They think everyone can help take care of nature by keeping it clean.

Answer the questions.
Have you ever wondered what happens to your old toothbrushes, shampoo bottles and food wrappers? Most people throw them into the bin without thinking. But did you know that a family of four creates about 1,000 kilograms of household waste every year? That is as heavy as a small car!
The good news is that up to 60% of household waste can be recycled or composted. For example, vegetable peels and eggshells can become compost for plants. Paper and cardboard can be made into new notebooks. Plastic bottles can be turned into jackets or even furniture.
However, if we mix all our waste together, recycling becomes very difficult. A banana peel can ruin a whole truckload of paper recycling. That is why sorting waste at home is so important.
Many communities now have four different bins: blue for paper, green for glass, yellow for plastic and metal, and brown for kitchen waste. Some cities even use smart bins that weigh your waste and give you points. You can exchange the points for discounts at local shops.
So, what can you do? Start by putting two small bins in your kitchen — one for wet waste (food scraps) and one for dry waste (paper, plastic). When a bin is full, take it to the correct community bin. Remember: when you sort right, you help the planet fight!
65.How much household waste does a family of four create per year?
66.What is one benefit of sorting waste correctly?
67.Can a banana peel affect paper recycling? Why or why not?
68.What can you get by using smart bins in some cities?
69.What two bins can you start with in your kitchen?
70.Do you think it is necessary for every family to sort waste? Why or why not? (Give at least two reasons)
【答案】65.About 1,000 kilograms. 66.It makes recycling easier / It helps the environment. 67.Yes. Because a banana peel can ruin a whole truckload of paper recycling. 68.Points (which can be exchanged for discounts). 69.A bin for wet waste (food scraps) and a bin for dry waste (paper, plastic). 70.Yes. Because it helps protect the environment and saves resources. Also, it makes community recycling programmes more effective. (Any two reasonable reasons)
【导语】本文主要讲述了家庭垃圾的处理现状、垃圾分类的重要性以及具体做法,倡导人们通过正确分类垃圾来保护环境。
65.第一段明确提到“a family of four creates about 1,000 kilograms of household waste every year”,直接说明了四口之家每年产生的生活垃圾量。
66.第三段指出“if we mix all our waste together, recycling becomes very difficult... That is why sorting waste at home is so important”,同时全文都在强调垃圾分类对回收利用和环境保护的作用。
67.第三段直接说明“A banana peel can ruin a whole truckload of paper recycling”,而香蕉皮属于湿垃圾,会污染纸张类可回收物。
68.第四段提到“Some cities even use smart bins that weigh your waste and give you points. You can exchange the points for discounts at local shops”,说明了智能垃圾桶的作用。
69.最后一段给出了具体建议“Start by putting two small bins in your kitchen — one for wet waste (food scraps) and one for dry waste (paper, plastic)”,因此第5题可直接提取。
70.开放性试题,答案合理即可。文章整体围绕垃圾分类的意义展开,提到垃圾分类能提高回收效率、减少污染、节约资源,也能让社区回收项目更好运行,因此结合文中内容和合理的环保理念。
