I’m Jessica Wong. Today I’ll tell you what we do every day to save the Earth. It’s reported that a common family produces more than one ton of rubbish a year. Some of this waste takes hundreds of years to decay. Also, it costs much money to buy new things to take the place of the things we throw away. In order to protect the environment and save money, we have recycled everything. On the one hand, we collect used things every day, such as paper, bottles and boxes, and put them into different bins. Then they are sent to a recycling center. Finally, they are treated and can be used again. Recycling will help reduce a lot of waste. On the other hand, we use old clothes to make different kinds of bags. I especially like to use old jeans to make bags. These cute and useful bags are popular with young people. As a result, I open a small shop and set up a website to sell them online. What’s more, my parents and my brother often go to work by bike. If it rains, they’ll take the bus. We’re also going to grow our own vegetables, raise cows, keep hens and ducks. Soon, we’ll be able to have eggs and milk for meals. What a difference we make for our Earth! 1.How much rubbish does a common family produce a year? (不超过5个词) 2.Why does Jessica open a small shop and set up a website to sell the bags online? (不超过 15个词) 3.What do you think of Jessica’s family? (不超过10个词) 【答案】1.More than one ton. 2.Because these cute and useful bags are popular with young people. 3.They are environmentally friendly and creative. 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,作者介绍自己一家通过回收、环保出行等方式践行绿色生活,保护地球。 1.第一段给出数据:“a common family produces more than one ton of rubbish a year”,直接提取数字信息回答一年产生的垃圾量。 2.第二段说明原因:“These cute and useful bags are popular with young people”,由此可知开店卖包的原因,直接提取信息。 3.第三段列举环保行为,本题为开放题,答案不唯一,可根据全家环保行动评价他们。 A Chinese boy named Yue Kailang climbed a mountain to draw attention to climate change. For 14 days, Yue experienced all these like snowstorms and a freezing temperature of -20℃ while climbing Mount Muztagata in Xinjiang. The 16-year-old boy from Beijing finally reached the top of the mountain at 7,546 metres. Yue was the youngest in the “Climate Action” climbing team. The project’s goal was to make people realize the danger of global warming by visiting snowy mountains “I loved nature when I was a kid. I often climbed mountains in Beijing. In recent years, more and more news reports have talked about the environment being destroyed (破坏), and I feel upset about it,” said Yue. “Mount Muztagata is an ideal place to research climate change because there are large areas of mountain glaciers,” said Yue. Along the way, Yue collected snow samples, which was part of the project’s tasks. The samples will be given to scientists to study how air pollution forms. “We say ‘saving Earth’ every day, but I think taking real action is more important than just talking,” said Yue. “I hope my story can draw more young people’s attention to the serious problem of global warming. What I’ve experienced has shown that global warming is really not far away.” 根据短文内容,回答下列问题。 1.Why did Yue climb a mountain? 2.How long did it take Yue to climb Mount Muztagata? 3.Where did Yue often climb mountains when he was a kid? 4.How did Yue feel about the environment being destroyed? 5.What did Yue do along the way as part of the project’s tasks? 【答案】1.He climbed a mountain to draw attention to climate change. 2.It took him 14 days to climb Mount Muztagata. 3.He often climbed mountains in Beijing when he was a kid. 4.He felt upset about it. 5.He collected snow samples along the way. 【导语】本文讲述16岁中国少年岳凯朗攀登慕士塔格峰,以实际行动呼吁关注气候变化、全球变暖问题,并在途中完成科考采样的故事。 1.文章首段第一句直接点明登山目的,为原文原句信息,直接提取作答。 2.根据第一段第二句“For 14 days, Yue experienced all these...while climbing Mount Muztagata”,登山耗时14天。 3.由第三段第二句“I often climbed mountains in Beijing.”可直接得出答案。 4.第三段末尾提及“I feel upset about it”,it指代环境遭到破坏,据此整理答案。 5.根据第五段第一句“Along the way, Yue collected snow samples, which was part of the project’s tasks.”,提取关键信息作答。 阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答下列问题。 Our planet is facing many environmental problems: the forests are getting smaller, the sea and the air are badly polluted, and more and more wild animals are losing their homes. What can we students do to help? I’ve got some easy and useful tips for you. How can we cut down waste in our daily life? The most important thing is to reuse and recycle. Don’t throw away old textbooks, notebooks, or pens. You can give them to younger students, or use them for DIY projects. You can also collect waste paper, plastic bottles and cans, and take them to the recycling centre. Every small action helps reduce waste. How can we reduce air pollution? Try to use green ways to travel. Take the bus or the subway to school instead of taking a private car. If your home is not far from school, you can ride a bike or walk. It’s good for your health and doesn’t pollute the air at all. You can also plant more trees and flowers around your home, as plants can help clean the air. How can we save natural resources? We can save water and electricity every day. Take short showers instead of baths. Turn off the tap when you brush your teeth or wash your hands. Turn off the lights, the computer and the TV when you leave the room. Use energysaving bulbs at home. All these things can help save our natural resources. 1.What environmental problems is our planet facing according to the passage? 2.How many kinds of recyclable things are mentioned in the second paragraph? 3.Why is walking to school a good choice to protect the environment? 4.What can we do to save water according to the passage? 5.What do you usually do to protect the environment in your daily life? (答案合理即可) 【答案】1.The forests are getting smaller, the sea and the air are badly polluted, and more and more wild animals are losing their homes. 2.Three. 3.Because it’s good for health and doesn’t pollute the air at all. 4.We can take short showers instead of baths, and turn off the tap when we brush our teeth or wash our hands. 5.示例:I usually bring a reusable cup when I buy drinks, and I always sort garbage at home and school. 【导语】本文主要介绍了学生可以通过减少浪费(如重复利用和回收物品)、选择绿色出行(如步行、骑车或乘公交)以及节约水电等日常小事,来帮助应对森林减少、污染加剧等环境问题。 1.原文第一段首句“the forests are getting smaller, the sea and the air are badly polluted, and more and more wild animals are losing their homes.”,明确列出了地球面临的环境问题。 2.第二段“You can also collect waste paper, plastic bottles and cans,”共提到3种可回收再利用物品。 3.根据第三段“If your home is not far from school, you can ride a bike or walk. It’s good for your health and doesn’t pollute the air at all.”,表明步行有益健康且完全不污染空气,因此是环保的好选择。 4.第四段“Take short showers instead of baths. Turn off the tap when you brush your teeth or wash your hands.”明确给出了这两种日常节约用水的具体方法。 5.本题为开放性问题,答案不唯一,只要表述合理,符合日常环保行为要求即可。 阅读短文,回答问题。(不超过4词) Virtual Forest: Protecting Trees Online Have you ever thought about protecting trees without leaving your home? Now you can do it through the Virtual Forest project. This project was set up by a group of environmentalists in 2022. Its purpose is to encourage people to protect real forests by planting virtual trees online. How does the Virtual Forest work? It’s very simple. You can register an account on the project’s website. Then you can complete various online tasks, such as answering environmental questions, watching educational videos and sharing environmental knowledge with friends. For each task you finish, you will get “green points”. When you have enough green points, you can “plant” a virtual tree on the website. Here’s the most interesting part: for every virtual tree planted, the project will plant a real tree in a forest in western China. These forests are facing the problem of desertification, and the new trees can help stop the desert from expanding. So far, about 100,000 virtual trees have been planted, and as a result, 100,000 real trees have been planted in the forests. The Virtual Forest project has become very popular among young people. Many students and office workers spend their free time completing tasks and planting virtual trees. They feel proud that they can contribute to environmental protection even when they are busy. The project also has a social function. You can invite your friends to join the project and plant trees together. You can compete with each other to see who plants more trees, which makes the project more fun. In the future, the project plans to expand to other countries. It hopes to encourage people around the world to protect forests and make the earth greener. 1.What can you get by finishing tasks? 2.If 300 virtual trees are planted, how many real trees will be planted in the forest? 3.What do you think of the Virtual Forest project? It 【答案】1.Green points. 2.300. 3.is meaningful. (开放性试题,答案不唯一,合理即可) 【导语】本文介绍了虚拟森林项目让人们在线种虚拟树,为中国西部种真实树,推广环保,计划全球推广。 1.文章第二段指出“For each task you finish, you will get ‘green points’.”因此答案是原文直接信息。 2.根据文章第三段“For every virtual tree planted, the project will plant a real tree in a forest in western China.”以及“So far, about 100,000 virtual trees have been planted, and as a result, 100,000 real trees have been planted in the forests.”可知,虚拟树和真实树的数量是1:1的关系;所以300棵虚拟树对应300棵真实树,简洁作答即可。 3.这是开放性问题,答案不唯一,结合文章内容,这个项目是有意义的,表述合理即可。 请认真阅读下面短文,用英语回答短文后的问题。 Do you know that your smartphone can help you become more environmentally friendly? A new trend called “eco-gaming” is encouraging people to make green choices while having fun. Eco-gaming combines mobile gaming with real-world environmental actions. Players earn points and rewards by completing tasks like recycling bottles, using reusable bags, or walking instead of driving. Apps like “EcoHero” and “GreenQuest” have become increasingly popular among young people. The idea started in Sweden in 2019 when a group of university students created an app to motivate their classmates to recycle more. Within six months, recycling rates on campus increased by 35%. The success attracted attention from other countries, and similar apps soon appeared in Germany, Japan, and Canada. How does it work? Users download the app and choose environmental challenges. They then take photos as proof of completing tasks, such as picking up litter or using a reusable water bottle. The app uses AI to verify the photos and awards points. Points can be exchanged for discounts at eco-friendly stores or donations to environmental charities. “I used to never think about my environmental impact,” says Tom Zhang, a 16-year-old user from Beijing. “But now I compete with my friends to see who can earn more ‘green points’. It’s actually fun to help the planet!” Experts believe eco-gaming has great potential. It makes environmental action feel less like a duty and more like a game. When people enjoy doing something, they’re more likely to continue doing it. 1.Where did the idea of eco-gaming start? _____________________________________________________________ 2.How do users prove that they have completed environmental tasks? _____________________________________________________________ 3.Do you think eco-gaming is a good way to encourage environmental action? Why or why not? _____________________________________________________________ 【答案】1.The idea of eco-gaming started in Sweden. 2.Users take photos as proof of completing tasks, and the app uses AI to verify the photos. 3.Yes, I think so. Because it makes environmental action fun and competitive, encouraging people to develop good habits. / No, I don't think so. Because people might only do it for points rather than truly caring about the environment. (开放性题目,合理即可) 【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了“生态游戏”(eco-gaming)这一新兴趋势,它将手机游戏与现实环保行动相结合,鼓励人们在娱乐中做出绿色选择,并通过奖励机制促进环保行为。 1.原文第三段明确指出“The idea started in Sweden in 2019 when a group of university students created an app to motivate their classmates to recycle more.”这个想法始于2019年的瑞典,当时一群大学生创建了一款应用程序,激励同学多回收垃圾。因此,生态游戏的理念起源于瑞典。 2.原文第四段详细说明了操作方式:“Users download the app and choose environmental challenges. They then take photos as proof of completing tasks...The app uses AI to verify the photos and awards points.”用户下载应用程序并选择环保挑战,然后拍照作为完成任务的证明,应用程序使用人工智能验证照片并奖励积分。因此,用户通过拍照并由AI验证来证明任务完成。 3.本题是开放性试题,答案不唯一,但观点需基于文中事实。结合文章内容合理作答即可。原文第五段用户Tom Zhang提到“I compete with my friends to see who can earn more ‘green points’. It’s actually fun to help the planet!”我和朋友比赛谁赚的“绿色积分”更多,帮助地球其实很有趣!第六段专家认为“It makes environmental action feel less like a duty and more like a game. When people enjoy doing something, they’re more likely to continue doing it.”它让环保行动感觉不像责任,而更像游戏。当人们喜欢做某事时,他们更有可能继续做下去。这些内容支持“生态游戏能有效鼓励环保行动”的观点。若持反对意见,可从“为积分而非真心”的角度出发,但原文未直接提供反对依据,需学生自行表达合理理由。 进阶拓展训练5篇 Wang Yue is a middle school student and an active volunteer in her neighborhood. Every weekend, she spends hours helping to build a better community. In the past year, she has led a “Green Community” project, where she organized her classmates to clean up the local park, plant over 100 trees, and set up recycling bins in every building. For the elderly who live alone, Wang Yue visits them twice a month to teach them how to sort garbage into different bins— recyclable, kitchen waste, and harmful waste. She even made colorful posters with simple pictures to help them remember the rules. During the summer holiday, she started a “Little Volunteers” club for primary school students, teaching them about the importance of saving water and electricity through fun games and stories. Wang Yue says, “Volunteering makes me realize that even small actions can bring big changes. When I see the park become cleaner or the elderly smile because they understand recycling, I feel proud of what we’re doing together.” Her passion has inspired more than 30 neighbors to join the volunteer team, and the community now looks greener and more harmonious (和谐的). 1.How often does Wang Yue help the elderly learn garbage sorting? 2.According to Wang Yue, what does volunteering make her realize? 3.When did Wang Yue start the “Little Volunteers” club for primary school students? 4.Why did Wang Yue make colorful posters with simple pictures? 5.If you could join Wang Yue’s volunteer team, what new activity would you suggest?

But what does “going green” mean? It means taking small actions every day to reduce waste, save energy and protect the environment at school. There are many bad behaviours we can often see at school. Some students leave the lights on when they leave the classroom. Some throw away half-eaten food in the dining hall. Some use only one side of the paper, and throw it away after using. Some buy bottled water every day, and throw the bottles away after drinking. These behaviours waste a lot of energy and resources, and they are bad for the environment. So what can we do to make our school greener? First, we should save energy. We should turn off the lights, fans and computers when we leave the classroom. Second, we should reduce waste. We should use both sides of the paper, and try not to use disposable bottles or chopsticks. We should finish all the food we take in the dining hall, to reduce food waste. Third, we can start a recycling programme at school. We can put different bins in the classroom to collect waste paper, plastic bottles and cans. We can also start a secondhand book corner, so students can exchange their old books with others. Going green at school is easy and meaningful. Every small action we take can help protect the earth. Let’s take action together to make our school greener! 1.What does “going green” mean according to the passage? 2.What bad behaviour do some students have with the lights at school? 3.Why should we use both sides of the paper? 4.What can we do to reduce food waste at school? 5.What will you do to make your school greener? (Please answer in one sentence.) 【答案】1.It means taking small actions every day to reduce waste, save energy and protect the environment at school. 2.They leave the lights on when they leave the classroom. 3.To reduce waste. 4.We should finish all the food we take in the dining hall. 5.I will turn off the lights when I leave the classroom to save energy. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了校园环保的含义、校园中常见的浪费行为,以及学生可以采取的环保行动,呼吁大家共同建设绿色校园。 1.文章指出“But what does ‘going green’ mean? It means taking small actions every day to reduce waste, save energy and protect the environment at school.”,“绿色环保”指的是每天采取小行动来减少浪费、节约能源、保护校园环境。 2.文章指出“Some students leave the lights on when they leave the classroom.”可知,一些学生离开教室时不关灯,这是关于灯光的不良行为。 3.文章指出“Second, we should reduce waste. We should use both sides of the paper…”可知,纸张双面使用是为了减少浪费。 4.文章指出“We should finish all the food we take in the dining hall, to reduce food waste.”,减少校园食物浪费的方法是吃完我们在食堂取的所有食物。 5.本题为开放性问题,答案不唯一,结合文中的环保建议,写出一条合理的行动即可,例如“离开教室时关灯节约能源”。 Down the drain The Duggans had moved into a new house. At the bottom of the yard, there was a river. Jack and his sister Kat liked to hang over the fence. They liked watching the leaves and sticks as they swirled past. One day, Jack discovered the drain (下水道) pipe in the ground. His father said a drain pipe took rain water underground and down to the river. Suddenly Jack had one of his dumb ideas! Jack pulled the cover off the drain with a strong pole. “We could put some sticks down here,” he said.“Let’s see whose stick gets to the river first.” So Jack and Kat dropped sticks into the drain. Then they ran to the fence. They watched the sticks shoot out of the pipe like arrows and splash into the river. “My stick was faster than yours!” shouted Jack. Jack and Kat couldn’t really tell whose stick was first. Then Kat had one of her dumb ideas. Kat got a spoon and a fork. “You can have the fork,” she said to Jack. Jack and Kat dashed to the fence. The spoon flew out first and splashed into the river. Jack didn’t like losing, so he said they had to do it again. Three spoons and forks shot out of the pipe. They disappeared into the murky river. The spoon was always first. “Find something else,” said Jack. So Kat found her mother’s old china dolls. Moths had chewed holes in their clothes and hair. “Dad can’t stand them,” said Kat. “He says they are just dust bags.” So down the pipe went the china dolls. “Mine won!” shouted Jack. “Down the drain” was a great game for Jack and Kat. The drain became a favourite place for them to dump things they didn’t want. Lunch not eaten, went down the drain. Dirty socks, went down the drain. Kat’s jacket that the kids all laughed at, went…down the drain. The problem was that the socks and the jacket never made it to the river. One day, Mrs Duggan was going out in her new shoes.Suddenly, she sank into the slushy ground. Then she saw water bubbling out of the drain pipe like a bath of ginger pop. When Jack and Kat got home from school, they saw the digger and the mess. Their father was waving Jack’s dirty, wet socks and Kat’s muddy jacket! Mr and Mrs Duggan were really cross. “You could have killed the river,” they said. “Kill a river? How can you kill a river?” asked Jack. “Rubbish in the river can take all the oxygen out,” said his dad. “When plants don’t get oxygen, they die. Then animals in the river die too, because they have no plants to eat.” “It was a dumb idea,” mumbled Jack. “A really dumb idea,” said his mum. After that, Jack and Kat had to spend many weekends at the beach, picking up rubbish. They picked up a heap of stuff-old shoes, plastic bottles, nappies, even underpants! Their mum, of course, found out about the dolls and she was mad! “They were antiques!” she said. Jack saw his father grin. Maybe he thought that shoving those dolls down the drain wasn’t such a dumb idea! 1.What did Jack use to open the drain cover? 2.What did Kat and Jack put into the drain? (List at least three things) 3.Why did Kat think her mother’s dolls could be thrown away? 4.What did Jack and Kat do to make up for their mistakes? 5.What is the main lesson of the story? 【答案】1.He used a strong pole. 2.Sticks, spoons, forks, china dolls, dirty socks and an old jacket. 3.Because her father couldn’t stand them and thought they were just dust bags. 4.They spent many weekends picking up rubbish on the beach. 5.We must never litter carelessly and we should protect rivers and the environment around us. 【导语】本文讲述Jack和Kat新家后院有一条小河,二人往下水道丢弃杂物堵塞管道、污染河流,最终认识错误并接受劳动惩罚的故事。 1.文章指出“Jack pulled the cover off the drain with a strong pole.”,Jack用一根结实的杆子打开了下水道井盖。 2.通读文章内容,文中提到二人往下水道投放了木棍、勺子、叉子、瓷娃娃、脏袜子、旧夹克等多种杂物。 3.文章指出“Dad can’t stand them. He says they are just dust bags.”,Kate认为爸爸无法忍受旧娃娃、积满灰尘,所以可以扔掉。 4.文章指出“After that, Jack and Kat had to spend many weekends at the beach, picking up rubbish.”,二人犯错之后,需要利用多个周末在海滩捡拾垃圾来弥补过错。 5.通读全文可知,随意丢弃垃圾会污染河流、破坏生态环境,我们要爱护自然环境、拒绝乱扔垃圾,学会为自己的错误承担责任。 请阅读下面语篇,根据其内容回答问题,并将答案写在答题卡相应的位置上。 The ocean is our great treasure. It gives us fresh seafood and clean energy, and keeps the earth’s climate balanced. It is also home to millions of sea creatures, making our planet lively and colourful. To help more people learn about the importance of the ocean, a special day was set up. World Oceans Day Information Time It is on June 8 every year. Purpose It helps people think about the important role that the ocean plays in our lives, the dangers that the ocean is facing and the actions that we can take to protect the ocean. Topic of 2026 Strong Marine (海洋的) Protected Areas for Our Blue Planet We can explore the ocean with modern tools like underwater cameras and diving equipment (潜水设备). These amazing tools act as our “eyes” and “hands” in the deep sea. Underwater cameras send back live videos of deep sea life, helping scientists study animals they have never seen before. Diving equipment lets scientists get close to sea animals to learn about their habits without hurting them. By using these tools, we are discovering new kinds of life all the time and learning how to better protect our blue planet. When people talk of exploring the ocean, there are different points. We need to explore the ocean. Ocean exploration can help us find new energy and food resources (资源). It can make human life better and also offer better ways to protect the ocean. By studying the ocean, we can collect some information. It is important for understanding and predicting climate change, which can help us protect our planet better. We should protect the ocean first instead of exploring it. The ocean is in danger because of pollution (污染) and overfishing. And more exploration means more pollution. If we don’t protect it, there will be no ocean to explore. 1.When is World Oceans Day? 2.How can we explore the ocean according to the passage? 3.What does Zhang Wei think ocean exploration can help us find? 4.Why is the ocean in danger in Li Hua’s opinion? 5.Should we explore the ocean? Why? 【答案】1.(It is) on June 8 every year. 2.(We can explore it) with modern tools like underwater cameras and diving equipment./ By using modern tools like underwater cameras and diving equipment. 3.(It can help us find) new energy and food resources. 4.Because of pollution and overfishing. 5.示例一:Yes, we should./…Because ocean exploration not only helps us protect the environment, but also allows us to develop new technology. 示例二:No, we shouldn’t./… Because divers and researchers face dangers such as equipment failure and sudden weather changes./… 【导语】本文介绍了世界海洋日的相关信息、探索海洋的方式,以及不同人对海洋探索的看法。 1.原文表格中“Time”一栏明确提到“It is on June 8 every year.”,直接提取即可。 2.原文提到“We can explore the ocean with modern tools like underwater cameras and diving equipment.”,直接提取即可。 3.根据张伟的观点,“Ocean exploration can help us find new energy and food resources.”,直接提取即可。 4.根据李华的观点,“The ocean is in danger because of pollution and overfishing.”,直接提取即可。 5.开放性问题,可结合文中观点作答,支持或反对都需给出合理理由。 阅读下面短文,简略回答问题。 Have you ever heard of Saihanba, a very big forest that lies in Chengde, Hebei? In Mongolian (蒙古语) , its name means “beautiful highlands”. Just as the name means, across the area were endless forests, grasslands and clear lakes. Saihanba used to be a royal hunting ground (皇家狩猎场) with warm and nice weather all year round. However, in1863, to make enough money, the land was open to all people. In the following years, tree cutting and wildfires quickly destroyed (破坏) the forests and grasslands. By the 1950s; Saihanba had poor land without animals or plants. The plans for rebuilding a national forest in Saihanba started in the 1960s. A number of scientists travelled through Saihanba and studied there in 1961. When they reached Saihanba, they could hardly find any trees. They finally found one standing alone in the large land. It greatly encouraged them. From then on, they asked the workers to keep working until they turned Saihanba into a new national forest. Although they met lots of difficulties planting trees, they solved them and the land has changed a lot since then. Today, Saihanba is famous as the “Emerald (绿宝石) of North China”. It is very important to Beijing’s water and air quality because it can make the environment better. It is also a natural protection that can prevent sandstorms. There are fewer sandstorms in Beijing over the years. 1.Where is Saihanba forest? 2.What destroyed the forests and grasslands in Saihanba after it was opened in 1863? 3.Why did the scientists travel to Saihanba and study there in 1961? 4.What good influences does Saihanba bring to Beijing?

But after he finished school, he worked as a salesman in a shopping center for thirty years. “Everything changed in 2016,” Cole said. That year, Cole’s mum, a flower-lover, moved in with him and his wife. She was shocked by so much litter on the street. “Why are there so many rubbish bags and empty bottles on this street?” she asked. She pointed at the dry tree pits (坑) outside their house and said, “Let’s plant some roses from our old garden here!” Mum and Cole began to work. They moved young rose plants into six tree pits. Guess what? The plants grew really well! To their surprise, there was no more litter around. “That was great! I realized that I could change something, rather than just sitting at home,” said Cole. In the following year, Cole created different gardens in six tree pits along the street. People up and down the street stopped to ask, “Who planted these flowers? They’re so beautiful!” and strangers turned into friends. Kids offered to water the plants. The next spring, the city used the strong grass killer on the whole street to kill wild grass. Days later, all the plants turned brown. Cole stood in front of the dead flowers, heartbroken. Then Aunt Mary from next door walked over with some seeds. “I have some flower seeds. Let’s start again!” The news spread. Tom brought young rose plants. Lisa brought sunflower seeds. Even Mr. Smith, the serious banker, gave strawberry vines from his garden. Soon, fifteen tree pits were full of colourful plants. A group of neighbours helped look after them. The experience led Cole to begin his “City Garden Project”. The project has turned over twenty parking lot corners into wildflower beds. Whenever he sees kids watching bees in the flower beds, he remembers his mum’s words: “No big heroes are needed to change the world.” 1.Why did Cole’s mum suggest planting roses? 2.Did the flowers Cole had planted die after the city used the grass killer? 3.What experience led Cole to start his “City Garden Project”? 4.What does “No big heroes are needed to change the world.” mean in the story? 5.How did Cole’s mum influence his “City Garden Project”? (2 points) 6.If you were Cole, what would be your ways to protect the plants from the city’s grass killer? 【答案】1.Because she was shocked by the street litter and saw the dry tree pits outside their house. 2.Yes, they did. 3.The experience of planting flowers with his mum, losing the plants to the grass killer, and getting neighbors’ help to replant them. 4.Ordinary people can change the world with small actions. 5.①She suggested planting roses in dry tree pits. ②Her words inspired his project. 6. ①Ask workers to avoid spraying near the plants. ②Cover the plants with a protective cloth when spraying. 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了科尔在母亲的提议下在街边树坑种花,植物因除草剂枯萎后邻里纷纷帮忙重新栽种,这段经历让他发起“城市花园计划”,也让他懂得普通人靠微小行动就能改变世界的道理。 1.根据“That year Cole’s mom, a flower lover, moved in with him and his wife.

At first, that might sound like a strange question. After all, sand covers beaches and deserts across the world. In the building field alone, 40—50 billion tons of sand is used around the world every year. This is because a concrete (混凝土的) mixture is usually made up of about 30% sand. Another problem is that most desert or beach sand can not be used. Desert sand is too smooth and beach sand has too much salt in it. This means that sand which is used for building is usually got from rivers. However, it has caused terrible environmental problems. As a result, many countries have stopped the use of sand in recent years. Many researchers are thinking about some new ways. They include Dr. John Orr at University of Cambridge. “We find that the plastic can replace (代替) 10% of the sand in concrete and it has the same strength (强度),” says Dr. John Orr. “That saves lots of sand and helps to cut down the plastic waste.” At the same time, other research is being done into using more objects to replace sand. To save the sand, everyone should play a part in cutting down the needs for sand besides the researchers. For example, people can drive less and not buy more cars. A 10% drop in the number of cars on the road means 10% fewer houses with garages (车库) that need to be built. That is millions of tons of concrete every year. 1.How much sand is a concrete mixture usually made up of? 2.Why can’t most desert or beach sand be used? 3.What do researchers find can partly replace sand in concrete? 4.What can people do to cut down the need of sand according to the writer? 5.What do you think of stopping the use of sand from rivers? Why? 【答案】1.About 30%. 2.Because desert sand is too smooth and beach sand has too much salt in it. 3.Some plastic. 4.Drive less and buy fewer cars. 5.It is necessary/good/helpful. Because it can help solve some environmental problems./... 【导语】本文是一篇说明文,指出全球面临沙资源短缺的问题。因沙漠及海滩沙无法使用,河沙开采会引发环境问题,研究者探索塑料等材料代替沙子,同时呼吁公众减少汽车使用以降低沙需求,强调环保与可持续发展的重要性。 1.根据“This is because a concrete (混凝土的) mixture is usually made up of about 30% sand.”可知,混凝土通常由30%的沙子构成。 2.根据“Desert sand is too smooth and beach sand has too much salt in it.”可知,沙漠沙太光滑,海滩沙盐分过高,因此大部分沙漠沙和海滩沙不能被使用。 3.根据“We find that the plastic can replace (代替) 10% of the sand in concrete and it has the same strength (强度),”可知,研究人员发现塑料可替代沙子。 4.根据“For example, people can drive less and not buy more cars.”可知,为了保护沙资源,人们应减少开车及购车。 5.根据“However, it has caused terrible environmental problems.

In 2019, Japan produced 5.7 million tons of food waste. The government is working on reducing this to 2.7 million by 2030. Now, University of Tokyo researchers in Japan have created a new technology that uses food waste in a surprising way. Student Kota Machida and Professor Yuya Sakai say the operation can turn food waste into a strong material like cement (水泥). They say it is four times stronger than regular concrete and is sustainable. And you can eat it. Through a process of drying, crushing, and compressing (压缩) the food waste, Sakai and his student Machida had successfully made cement from food waste without plastic. “The most challenging part was that each type of food waste requires different temperatures and pressure levels,” Sakai said. The team have used different types of food waste to make the cement, including tea leaves, orange peels, coffee grounds, and leftover lunch materials. They’ve adjusted flavors with different spices and found the colors, smell and taste of the cement can be quite attractive. Machida and his two friends have created a company called Fabula, Inc. They are working with other companies to use the material to make products for the home. “If this cement could replace plastic and cement products, it may help slow global warming linked to food waste,” said Machida. 1.Can we eat the food waste like cement? 2.Who had successfully made cement from food waste without plastic? 3.What was the most difficult part to make the food waste without plastic? 4.How many types of food waste to make the cement are mentioned? 5.What do you think of the food cement? 【答案】1.Yes, we can. 2.Sakai and his student Machida. 3.Each type of food waste requires different temperatures and pressure levels. 4.4/ Four. 5.Great./Helpful./Environment-friendly. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了日本研究人员发明了一种新技术,将食物垃圾转化为水泥等坚固材料,这种混凝土的强度是普通混凝土的四倍,而且是可持续的,还可以食用。 1.根据第二段“Student Kota Machida and Professor Yuya Sakai say the operation can turn food waste into a strong material like cement. They say it is four times stronger than regular concrete and is sustainable. And you can eat it.”可知,用食物垃圾制成的混凝土是可食用的。故填Yes, we can. 2.根据第三段“Through a process of drying, crushing, and compressing the food waste, Sakai and his student Machida had successfully made cement from food waste without plastic.”可知,酒井和他的学生町田通过干燥、粉碎和压缩食物垃圾的过程,成功地用食物垃圾制成了水泥,没有使用塑料。故填Sakai and his student Machida. 3.根据第三段“‘The most challenging part was that each type of food waste requires different temperatures and pressure levels,’ Sakai said.”可知,最具挑战性的部分是,每种食物垃圾需要不同的温度和压力水平。故填Each type of food waste requires different temperatures and pressure levels. 4.根据第四段“The team have used different types of food waste to make the cement, including tea leaves, orange peels, coffee grounds, and leftover lunch materials.”可知,该团队使用了茶叶、橘子皮、咖啡渣和剩余的午餐材料等四种类型的食物垃圾来制作混凝土。故填4/ Four. 5.根据最后一段“If this cement could replace plastic and cement products, it may help slow global warming linked to food waste,”可知,这种由食物垃圾制成的混凝土将减缓与食物浪费有关的全球变暖,从而有利于节约资源、保护环境,所以这种视频混凝土很好/很有用/对环境友好。故填Great./Helpful. /Environment-friendly.

Have you ever seen one with your own eyes? Sadly, many glaciers are now getting smaller because of global warming. The European Environmental Agency (欧洲环境署) says glaciers in the Alps (阿尔卑斯山脉) have lost about half of their amount since 1900. The melting has gotten faster since 1980. The agency adds that by 2100, up to 89 percent of European glaciers could have melted. For American photographer and pilot Garrett Fisher, this means that he is in a race against time. Not too long ago, he flew close to Europe’s largest glacier which is in Norway. The 41-year-old is trying to photograph every glacier on the face of the planet. He wants to show people the beauty of glaciers before some of them are gone. Fisher became interested in flying and photography at an early age. In the late 1990s, a friend told Fisher that the world’s glaciers were disappearing. This pushed him to combine his two favorite hobbies. The man decided to fly over the Earth’s remaining glaciers and photograph them. He made it his life’s work. Fisher flies a small plane. It seems like a toy against the huge glaciers. The task requires a lot of skill and time. “The weather is cold and is often terrible; the winds are very strong,” says Fisher. “To photograph glaciers, I must get very close to their surfaces. Many people tell me that I’m crazy.” Some people ask Fisher if it is necessary to risk his life flying over glaciers. After all, these days, satellites are able to give us pictures of all the glaciers. Fisher explains that pictures from satellites cannot show the beauty of glaciers the way his photos can. His photos show the colors and shapes of glaciers, as well as the shadows as the sunlight hits them. Fisher hopes his photos will make people care more about glaciers. He wants them to push governments to act against global warming. “We can live without them. We will live without them,” Fisher adds. “However, it hurts us to lose them.” 1.According to the article, where is Europe’s largest glacier located? 2.When did Garrett Fisher first learn about the disappearance of glaciers? 3.Why is Fisher “in a race against time (underlined in paragraph 3)”? 4.According to Fisher, what is the difference between his glacier pictures and those from satellites? 5.What does Fisher hope people will do after seeing his glacier pictures? 6.If you were one of Fisher’s close friends, what would you say to him? Write at least two sentences. 【答案】1.It is located in Norway. 2.In the late 1990s. 3.Because many glaciers are getting smaller and disappearing due to global warming, and he wants to photograph every glacier before some of them are gone. 4.His photos can show the beauty of glaciers (including their colors, shapes and shadows when sunlight hits them), while satellite pictures cannot. 5.He hopes people will care more about glaciers and push governments to act against global warming. 6.Example: Garrett, I really admire your courage and devotion to recording glaciers’ beauty. It’s meaningful to let more people pay attention to global warming through your photos. Please take good care of yourself when flying in terrible weather! 【导语】本文主要介绍了摄影师兼飞行员Garrett Fisher为记录冰川之美,驾驶飞机环游全球拍摄冰川的行动,以及他这样做的原因和期望。 1.根据第三段“Not too long ago, he flew close to Europe’s largest glacier which is in Norway.”可知,欧洲最大的冰川位于挪威。故填It is located in Norway. 2.根据第四段“In the late 1990s, a friend told Fisher that the world’s glaciers were disappearing.”可知,Garrett Fisher在20世纪90年代末第一次得知冰川正在消失。故填In the late 1990s. 3.根据第二段“many glaciers are now getting smaller because of global warming”以及第三段“He wants to show people the beauty of glaciers before some of them are gone.”可知,他“与时间赛跑”是因为全球变暖导致许多冰川正在缩小消失,他想在部分冰川消失前拍下每一座冰川。故填Because many glaciers are getting smaller and disappearing due to global warming, and he wants to photograph every glacier before some of them are gone. 4.根据第五段“Fisher explains that pictures from satellites cannot show the beauty of glaciers the way his photos can. His photos show the colors and shapes of glaciers, as well as the shadows as the sunlight hits them.”可知,他的照片能展现冰川的美(包括颜色、形状和阳光照射下的阴影),而卫星图片不能。故填His photos can show the beauty of glaciers (including their colors, shapes and shadows when sunlight hits them), while satellite pictures cannot. 5.根据第五段“Fisher hopes his photos will make people care more about glaciers.

I’m Jessica Wong. Today I’ll tell you what we do every day to save the Earth. It’s reported that a common family produces more than one ton of rubbish a year. Some of this waste takes hundreds of years to decay. Also, it costs much money to buy new things to take the place of the things we throw away. In order to protect the environment and save money, we have recycled everything. On the one hand, we collect used things every day, such as paper, bottles and boxes, and put them into different bins. Then they are sent to a recycling center. Finally, they are treated and can be used again. Recycling will help reduce a lot of waste. On the other hand, we use old clothes to make different kinds of bags. I especially like to use old jeans to make bags. These cute and useful bags are popular with young people. As a result, I open a small shop and set up a website to sell them online. What’s more, my parents and my brother often go to work by bike. If it rains, they’ll take the bus. We’re also going to grow our own vegetables, raise cows, keep hens and ducks. Soon, we’ll be able to have eggs and milk for meals. What a difference we make for our Earth! 1.How much rubbish does a common family produce a year? (不超过5个词) 2.Why does Jessica open a small shop and set up a website to sell the bags online? (不超过 15个词) 3.What do you think of Jessica’s family? (不超过10个词) A Chinese boy named Yue Kailang climbed a mountain to draw attention to climate change. For 14 days, Yue experienced all these like snowstorms and a freezing temperature of -20℃ while climbing Mount Muztagata in Xinjiang. The 16-year-old boy from Beijing finally reached the top of the mountain at 7,546 metres. Yue was the youngest in the “Climate Action” climbing team. The project’s goal was to make people realize the danger of global warming by visiting snowy mountains “I loved nature when I was a kid. I often climbed mountains in Beijing. In recent years, more and more news reports have talked about the environment being destroyed (破坏), and I feel upset about it,” said Yue. “Mount Muztagata is an ideal place to research climate change because there are large areas of mountain glaciers,” said Yue. Along the way, Yue collected snow samples, which was part of the project’s tasks. The samples will be given to scientists to study how air pollution forms. “We say ‘saving Earth’ every day, but I think taking real action is more important than just talking,” said Yue. “I hope my story can draw more young people’s attention to the serious problem of global warming. What I’ve experienced has shown that global warming is really not far away.” 根据短文内容,回答下列问题。 1.Why did Yue climb a mountain? 2.How long did it take Yue to climb Mount Muztagata? 3.Where did Yue often climb mountains when he was a kid? 4.How did Yue feel about the environment being destroyed? 5.What did Yue do along the way as part of the project’s tasks? 阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答下列问题。 Our planet is facing many environmental problems: the forests are getting smaller, the sea and the air are badly polluted, and more and more wild animals are losing their homes. What can we students do to help? I’ve got some easy and useful tips for you. How can we cut down waste in our daily life? The most important thing is to reuse and recycle. Don’t throw away old textbooks, notebooks, or pens. You can give them to younger students, or use them for DIY projects. You can also collect waste paper, plastic bottles and cans, and take them to the recycling centre. Every small action helps reduce waste. How can we reduce air pollution? Try to use green ways to travel. Take the bus or the subway to school instead of taking a private car. If your home is not far from school, you can ride a bike or walk. It’s good for your health and doesn’t pollute the air at all. You can also plant more trees and flowers around your home, as plants can help clean the air. How can we save natural resources? We can save water and electricity every day. Take short showers instead of baths. Turn off the tap when you brush your teeth or wash your hands. Turn off the lights, the computer and the TV when you leave the room. Use energysaving bulbs at home. All these things can help save our natural resources. 1.What environmental problems is our planet facing according to the passage? 2.How many kinds of recyclable things are mentioned in the second paragraph? 3.Why is walking to school a good choice to protect the environment? 4.What can we do to save water according to the passage? 5.What do you usually do to protect the environment in your daily life? (答案合理即可) 阅读短文,回答问题。(不超过4词) Virtual Forest: Protecting Trees Online Have you ever thought about protecting trees without leaving your home? Now you can do it through the Virtual Forest project. This project was set up by a group of environmentalists in 2022. Its purpose is to encourage people to protect real forests by planting virtual trees online. How does the Virtual Forest work? It’s very simple. You can register an account on the project’s website. Then you can complete various online tasks, such as answering environmental questions, watching educational videos and sharing environmental knowledge with friends. For each task you finish, you will get “green points”. When you have enough green points, you can “plant” a virtual tree on the website. Here’s the most interesting part: for every virtual tree planted, the project will plant a real tree in a forest in western China. These forests are facing the problem of desertification, and the new trees can help stop the desert from expanding. So far, about 100,000 virtual trees have been planted, and as a result, 100,000 real trees have been planted in the forests. The Virtual Forest project has become very popular among young people. Many students and office workers spend their free time completing tasks and planting virtual trees. They feel proud that they can contribute to environmental protection even when they are busy. The project also has a social function. You can invite your friends to join the project and plant trees together. You can compete with each other to see who plants more trees, which makes the project more fun. In the future, the project plans to expand to other countries. It hopes to encourage people around the world to protect forests and make the earth greener. 1.What can you get by finishing tasks? 2.If 300 virtual trees are planted, how many real trees will be planted in the forest? 3.What do you think of the Virtual Forest project? It Do you know that your smartphone can help you become more environmentally friendly? A new trend called “eco-gaming” is encouraging people to make green choices while having fun. Eco-gaming combines mobile gaming with real-world environmental actions. Players earn points and rewards by completing tasks like recycling bottles, using reusable bags, or walking instead of driving. Apps like “EcoHero” and “GreenQuest” have become increasingly popular among young people. The idea started in Sweden in 2019 when a group of university students created an app to motivate their classmates to recycle more. Within six months, recycling rates on campus increased by 35%. The success attracted attention from other countries, and similar apps soon appeared in Germany, Japan, and Canada. How does it work? Users download the app and choose environmental challenges. They then take photos as proof of completing tasks, such as picking up litter or using a reusable water bottle. The app uses AI to verify the photos and awards points. Points can be exchanged for discounts at eco-friendly stores or donations to environmental charities. “I used to never think about my environmental impact,” says Tom Zhang, a 16-year-old user from Beijing. “But now I compete with my friends to see who can earn more ‘green points’. It’s actually fun to help the planet!” Experts believe eco-gaming has great potential. It makes environmental action feel less like a duty and more like a game. When people enjoy doing something, they’re more likely to continue doing it. 1.Where did the idea of eco-gaming start? _____________________________________________________________ 2.How do users prove that they have completed environmental tasks? _____________________________________________________________ 3.Do you think eco-gaming is a good way to encourage environmental action? Why or why not? _____________________________________________________________ 进阶拓展训练5篇 Wang Yue is a middle school student and an active volunteer in her neighborhood. Every weekend, she spends hours helping to build a better community. In the past year, she has led a “Green Community” project, where she organized her classmates to clean up the local park, plant over 100 trees, and set up recycling bins in every building. For the elderly who live alone, Wang Yue visits them twice a month to teach them how to sort garbage into different bins— recyclable, kitchen waste, and harmful waste. She even made colorful posters with simple pictures to help them remember the rules. During the summer holiday, she started a “Little Volunteers” club for primary school students, teaching them about the importance of saving water and electricity through fun games and stories. Wang Yue says, “Volunteering makes me realize that even small actions can bring big changes. When I see the park become cleaner or the elderly smile because they understand recycling, I feel proud of what we’re doing together.” Her passion has inspired more than 30 neighbors to join the volunteer team, and the community now looks greener and more harmonious (和谐的). 1.How often does Wang Yue help the elderly learn garbage sorting? 2.According to Wang Yue, what does volunteering make her realize? 3.When did Wang Yue start the “Little Volunteers” club for primary school students? 4.Why did Wang Yue make colorful posters with simple pictures? 5.If you could join Wang Yue’s volunteer team, what new activity would you suggest? Why? How to go green at school The earth needs our protection, and going green at school is a great way for students to help protect the environment. But what does “going green” mean? It means taking small actions every day to reduce waste, save energy and protect the environment at school. There are many bad behaviours we can often see at school. Some students leave the lights on when they leave the classroom. Some throw away half-eaten food in the dining hall. Some use only one side of the paper, and throw it away after using. Some buy bottled water every day, and throw the bottles away after drinking. These behaviours waste a lot of energy and resources, and they are bad for the environment. So what can we do to make our school greener? First, we should save energy. We should turn off the lights, fans and computers when we leave the classroom. Second, we should reduce waste. We should use both sides of the paper, and try not to use disposable bottles or chopsticks. We should finish all the food we take in the dining hall, to reduce food waste. Third, we can start a recycling programme at school. We can put different bins in the classroom to collect waste paper, plastic bottles and cans. We can also start a secondhand book corner, so students can exchange their old books with others. Going green at school is easy and meaningful. Every small action we take can help protect the earth. Let’s take action together to make our school greener! 1.What does “going green” mean according to the passage? 2.What bad behaviour do some students have with the lights at school? 3.Why should we use both sides of the paper? 4.What can we do to reduce food waste at school? 5.What will you do to make your school greener? (Please answer in one sentence.) Down the drain The Duggans had moved into a new house. At the bottom of the yard, there was a river. Jack and his sister Kat liked to hang over the fence. They liked watching the leaves and sticks as they swirled past. One day, Jack discovered the drain (下水道) pipe in the ground. His father said a drain pipe took rain water underground and down to the river. Suddenly Jack had one of his dumb ideas! Jack pulled the cover off the drain with a strong pole. “We could put some sticks down here,” he said.“Let’s see whose stick gets to the river first.” So Jack and Kat dropped sticks into the drain. Then they ran to the fence. They watched the sticks shoot out of the pipe like arrows and splash into the river. “My stick was faster than yours!” shouted Jack. Jack and Kat couldn’t really tell whose stick was first. Then Kat had one of her dumb ideas. Kat got a spoon and a fork. “You can have the fork,” she said to Jack. Jack and Kat dashed to the fence. The spoon flew out first and splashed into the river. Jack didn’t like losing, so he said they had to do it again. Three spoons and forks shot out of the pipe. They disappeared into the murky river. The spoon was always first. “Find something else,” said Jack. So Kat found her mother’s old china dolls. Moths had chewed holes in their clothes and hair. “Dad can’t stand them,” said Kat. “He says they are just dust bags.” So down the pipe went the china dolls. “Mine won!” shouted Jack. “Down the drain” was a great game for Jack and Kat. The drain became a favourite place for them to dump things they didn’t want. Lunch not eaten, went down the drain. Dirty socks, went down the drain. Kat’s jacket that the kids all laughed at, went…down the drain. The problem was that the socks and the jacket never made it to the river. One day, Mrs Duggan was going out in her new shoes.Suddenly, she sank into the slushy ground. Then she saw water bubbling out of the drain pipe like a bath of ginger pop. When Jack and Kat got home from school, they saw the digger and the mess. Their father was waving Jack’s dirty, wet socks and Kat’s muddy jacket! Mr and Mrs Duggan were really cross. “You could have killed the river,” they said. “Kill a river? How can you kill a river?” asked Jack. “Rubbish in the river can take all the oxygen out,” said his dad. “When plants don’t get oxygen, they die. Then animals in the river die too, because they have no plants to eat.” “It was a dumb idea,” mumbled Jack. “A really dumb idea,” said his mum. After that, Jack and Kat had to spend many weekends at the beach, picking up rubbish. They picked up a heap of stuff-old shoes, plastic bottles, nappies, even underpants! Their mum, of course, found out about the dolls and she was mad! “They were antiques!” she said. Jack saw his father grin. Maybe he thought that shoving those dolls down the drain wasn’t such a dumb idea! 1.What did Jack use to open the drain cover? 2.What did Kat and Jack put into the drain? (List at least three things) 3.Why did Kat think her mother’s dolls could be thrown away? 4.What did Jack and Kat do to make up for their mistakes? 5.What is the main lesson of the story? 请阅读下面语篇,根据其内容回答问题,并将答案写在答题卡相应的位置上。 The ocean is our great treasure. It gives us fresh seafood and clean energy, and keeps the earth’s climate balanced. It is also home to millions of sea creatures, making our planet lively and colourful. To help more people learn about the importance of the ocean, a special day was set up. World Oceans Day Information Time It is on June 8 every year. Purpose It helps people think about the important role that the ocean plays in our lives, the dangers that the ocean is facing and the actions that we can take to protect the ocean. Topic of 2026 Strong Marine (海洋的) Protected Areas for Our Blue Planet We can explore the ocean with modern tools like underwater cameras and diving equipment (潜水设备). These amazing tools act as our “eyes” and “hands” in the deep sea. Underwater cameras send back live videos of deep sea life, helping scientists study animals they have never seen before. Diving equipment lets scientists get close to sea animals to learn about their habits without hurting them. By using these tools, we are discovering new kinds of life all the time and learning how to better protect our blue planet. When people talk of exploring the ocean, there are different points. We need to explore the ocean. Ocean exploration can help us find new energy and food resources (资源). It can make human life better and also offer better ways to protect the ocean. By studying the ocean, we can collect some information. It is important for understanding and predicting climate change, which can help us protect our planet better. We should protect the ocean first instead of exploring it. The ocean is in danger because of pollution (污染) and overfishing. And more exploration means more pollution. If we don’t protect it, there will be no ocean to explore. 1.When is World Oceans Day? 2.How can we explore the ocean according to the passage? 3.What does Zhang Wei think ocean exploration can help us find? 4.Why is the ocean in danger in Li Hua’s opinion? 5.Should we explore the ocean?

Just as the name means, across the area were endless forests, grasslands and clear lakes. Saihanba used to be a royal hunting ground (皇家狩猎场) with warm and nice weather all year round. However, in1863, to make enough money, the land was open to all people. In the following years, tree cutting and wildfires quickly destroyed (破坏) the forests and grasslands. By the 1950s; Saihanba had poor land without animals or plants. The plans for rebuilding a national forest in Saihanba started in the 1960s. A number of scientists travelled through Saihanba and studied there in 1961. When they reached Saihanba, they could hardly find any trees. They finally found one standing alone in the large land. It greatly encouraged them. From then on, they asked the workers to keep working until they turned Saihanba into a new national forest. Although they met lots of difficulties planting trees, they solved them and the land has changed a lot since then. Today, Saihanba is famous as the “Emerald (绿宝石) of North China”. It is very important to Beijing’s water and air quality because it can make the environment better. It is also a natural protection that can prevent sandstorms. There are fewer sandstorms in Beijing over the years. 1.Where is Saihanba forest? 2.What destroyed the forests and grasslands in Saihanba after it was opened in 1863? 3.Why did the scientists travel to Saihanba and study there in 1961? 4.What good influences does Saihanba bring to Beijing? (List two.) 5.How do you understand the relationship between humans and nature from Saihanba’s story? 能力综合实践5篇 Cole loved helping in his mother’s garden since he was a child. But after he finished school, he worked as a salesman in a shopping center for thirty years. “Everything changed in 2016,” Cole said. That year, Cole’s mum, a flower-lover, moved in with him and his wife. She was shocked by so much litter on the street. “Why are there so many rubbish bags and empty bottles on this street?” she asked. She pointed at the dry tree pits (坑) outside their house and said, “Let’s plant some roses from our old garden here!” Mum and Cole began to work. They moved young rose plants into six tree pits. Guess what? The plants grew really well! To their surprise, there was no more litter around. “That was great! I realized that I could change something, rather than just sitting at home,” said Cole. In the following year, Cole created different gardens in six tree pits along the street. People up and down the street stopped to ask, “Who planted these flowers? They’re so beautiful!” and strangers turned into friends. Kids offered to water the plants. The next spring, the city used the strong grass killer on the whole street to kill wild grass. Days later, all the plants turned brown. Cole stood in front of the dead flowers, heartbroken. Then Aunt Mary from next door walked over with some seeds. “I have some flower seeds. Let’s start again!” The news spread. Tom brought young rose plants. Lisa brought sunflower seeds. Even Mr. Smith, the serious banker, gave strawberry vines from his garden. Soon, fifteen tree pits were full of colourful plants. A group of neighbours helped look after them. The experience led Cole to begin his “City Garden Project”. The project has turned over twenty parking lot corners into wildflower beds. Whenever he sees kids watching bees in the flower beds, he remembers his mum’s words: “No big heroes are needed to change the world.” 1.Why did Cole’s mum suggest planting roses? 2.Did the flowers Cole had planted die after the city used the grass killer? 3.What experience led Cole to start his “City Garden Project”? 4.What does “No big heroes are needed to change the world.” mean in the story? 5.How did Cole’s mum influence his “City Garden Project”? (2 points) 6.If you were Cole, what would be your ways to protect the plants from the city’s grass killer? 阅读下面短文,简略回答问题。 Is the world short of sand? At first, that might sound like a strange question. After all, sand covers beaches and deserts across the world. In the building field alone, 40—50 billion tons of sand is used around the world every year. This is because a concrete (混凝土的) mixture is usually made up of about 30% sand. Another problem is that most desert or beach sand can not be used. Desert sand is too smooth and beach sand has too much salt in it. This means that sand which is used for building is usually got from rivers. However, it has caused terrible environmental problems. As a result, many countries have stopped the use of sand in recent years. Many researchers are thinking about some new ways. They include Dr. John Orr at University of Cambridge. “We find that the plastic can replace (代替) 10% of the sand in concrete and it has the same strength (强度),” says Dr. John Orr. “That saves lots of sand and helps to cut down the plastic waste.” At the same time, other research is being done into using more objects to replace sand. To save the sand, everyone should play a part in cutting down the needs for sand besides the researchers. For example, people can drive less and not buy more cars. A 10% drop in the number of cars on the road means 10% fewer houses with garages (车库) that need to be built. That is millions of tons of concrete every year. 1.How much sand is a concrete mixture usually made up of? 2.Why can’t most desert or beach sand be used? 3.What do researchers find can partly replace sand in concrete? 4.What can people do to cut down the need of sand according to the writer? 5.What do you think of stopping the use of sand from rivers? Why? 阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答问题。 Food waste (食物残渣) is a big problem in Japan and the world. In 2019, Japan produced 5.7 million tons of food waste. The government is working on reducing this to 2.7 million by 2030. Now, University of Tokyo researchers in Japan have created a new technology that uses food waste in a surprising way. Student Kota Machida and Professor Yuya Sakai say the operation can turn food waste into a strong material like cement (水泥). They say it is four times stronger than regular concrete and is sustainable. And you can eat it. Through a process of drying, crushing, and compressing (压缩) the food waste, Sakai and his student Machida had successfully made cement from food waste without plastic. “The most challenging part was that each type of food waste requires different temperatures and pressure levels,” Sakai said. The team have used different types of food waste to make the cement, including tea leaves, orange peels, coffee grounds, and leftover lunch materials. They’ve adjusted flavors with different spices and found the colors, smell and taste of the cement can be quite attractive. Machida and his two friends have created a company called Fabula, Inc. They are working with other companies to use the material to make products for the home. “If this cement could replace plastic and cement products, it may help slow global warming linked to food waste,” said Machida. 1.Can we eat the food waste like cement? 2.Who had successfully made cement from food waste without plastic? 3.What was the most difficult part to make the food waste without plastic? 4.How many types of food waste to make the cement are mentioned? 5.What do you think of the food cement? Read the passage and answer the following questions. (根据短文的内容,回答下列问题。) There are some easy things you can do to protect the environment and the earth. Choose ideas from the list or come up with a few of your own.  Plant flowers, grass or trees.  Whenever you visit a park or a beach, take away what you bring there—keep rubbish in a bag until you can put it in a dustbin.  Turn off the lights, TV sets when you leave the room. This saves a lot of electricity.  Turn off the tap when you brush your teeth. You can save some water by not letting it run. Also, use a glass cup instead of a paper cup because this saves paper.  Keep the doors and windows closed in winter to keep warm air in.  Give your old books and magazines to a library instead of throwing them away.  Give your old clothes to poor children you know instead of throwing them away.  Use both sides of paper.  Stop pouring dirty water into the rivers or lakes nearby.  Encourage all your friends to do the same things you do to help protect the earth. You don’t have to wait until Earth Day to do these things. Make every day Earth Day. If everyone protects the environment, the world will become much more beautiful. 1.Are there any easy things we can do to protect the environment and the earth? 2.Where can you keep rubbish before you put it in a dustbin whenever you visit a park or a beach? 3.In order to save paper, what kind of cup can you use instead of a paper cup? 4.We should use both sides of the paper, should we? 5.Why should everyone protect the environment? 6.What can you do to protect the environment? (Please give two examples.) 根据短文内容回答问题。 Glaciers (冰川) are large blocks of snow and ice that move slowly down valleys. They look beautiful. Have you ever seen one with your own eyes? Sadly, many glaciers are now getting smaller because of global warming. The European Environmental Agency (欧洲环境署) says glaciers in the Alps (阿尔卑斯山脉) have lost about half of their amount since 1900. The melting has gotten faster since 1980. The agency adds that by 2100, up to 89 percent of European glaciers could have melted. For American photographer and pilot Garrett Fisher, this means that he is in a race against time. Not too long ago, he flew close to Europe’s largest glacier which is in Norway. The 41-year-old is trying to photograph every glacier on the face of the planet. He wants to show people the beauty of glaciers before some of them are gone. Fisher became interested in flying and photography at an early age. In the late 1990s, a friend told Fisher that the world’s glaciers were disappearing. This pushed him to combine his two favorite hobbies. The man decided to fly over the Earth’s remaining glaciers and photograph them. He made it his life’s work. Fisher flies a small plane. It seems like a toy against the huge glaciers. The task requires a lot of skill and time. “The weather is cold and is often terrible; the winds are very strong,” says Fisher. “To photograph glaciers, I must get very close to their surfaces. Many people tell me that I’m crazy.” Some people ask Fisher if it is necessary to risk his life flying over glaciers. After all, these days, satellites are able to give us pictures of all the glaciers. Fisher explains that pictures from satellites cannot show the beauty of glaciers the way his photos can. His photos show the colors and shapes of glaciers, as well as the shadows as the sunlight hits them. Fisher hopes his photos will make people care more about glaciers. He wants them to push governments to act against global warming. “We can live without them. We will live without them,” Fisher adds. “However, it hurts us to lose them.” 1.According to the article, where is Europe’s largest glacier located? 2.When did Garrett Fisher first learn about the disappearance of glaciers? 3.Why is Fisher “in a race against time (underlined in paragraph 3)”? 4.According to Fisher, what is the difference between his glacier pictures and those from satellites? 5.What does Fisher hope people will do after seeing his glacier pictures? 6.If you were one of Fisher’s close friends, what would you say to him?
