B The ocean covers more than 70%of our planet,yet nearly 11 million tons of plastic enter our oceans each year.Around 100,000 sea animals die every year because of plastic pollution,while over one million seabirds accidentally eat plastic every year.Studies show that by 2050,there could be more plastic than fish in the ocean by weight if no action is taken. And here's where technology steps in.Ocean cleaning robots are becoming one of the most powerful tools to deal with ocean pollution.Unlike traditional cleanup methods that need boats,nets, and manpower,the robots can work tirelessly to collect waste,separate recyclable material,and 九年级英语第3页共8页 help keep sea ecosystems(生态系统)healthy. A Surface cleaning robots are used to collect plastic,bottles,bags and other rubbish that stay on water surface.Examples include Clearbot (Hong Kong)and WasteShark (Netherlands). Such a robot can collect 200 to 500 kilograms of rubbish daily.Underwater robots use cameras, special arms and sensorst(感应器)to find and take away the waste,including fishing nets一one of the deadliest forms of ocean rubbish for sea animals.Oil cleaning robots are designed to take in oil that gets out of ships by accident while microplastic collecting robots help collect tiny plastic pieces without harming the fish. With development in AI technology,machine learning,and renewable energy,robots will soon operate across rivers and oceans worldwide.Experts say that by 2030 over 30%of ocean cleanup efforts will depend on robotic systems.The progress that has been made so far proves that robotics can play a central role in keeping the oceans clean and protect human health.The real question is: how can we make better use of these technologies?

Paper shopping bags are better than plastic ones. Plastic bags cause litter and are a danger to wild animals,which mistake them for food.It takes hundreds of years for plastic to break down,but much less time for paper.Because of this,people think paper bags are the better environmental choice.However,making a paper bag uses four times as much energy as making a plastic bag.The process also produces more greenhouse gases. In fact,both kinds of bags are bad for the environment.So,take a reusable bag with you when you go shopping. When you turn off a device(电器)，it stops using power.. When we turn off a device,such as television,it goes into standby mode(待机模式).Devices still use power.This happens because electricity continues to leak from the device,even when it is turned "off'.To make sure your device is in fact off,remove the plug()from its power supply(供应). Eating local food is good for the environment. It seems like common sense:eating local food should be better for the environment,because it does not need to be transported long distances and kept cold during transport.Unfortunately,it is not that simple.The production of food uses most of the energy and produces most of the greenhouse gases.In some cases,local produce might have used more energy and produced more 九年级英语第5页共8页 greenhouse gases than products grown a long way away. It's better to take a shower than a bath. It depends on how long you spend in the shower and how large your bath is.If you spend more than eight minutes in a shower,you'll use as much water as in a bath-about 50 liters of water. Therefore,the key is to keep your shower time as short as possible Environmental awareness is now part of daily life.But it's worth checking common ideas and opinions to see what's really green. ()41.What does the writer advise people to use when going shopping? A.Reusable bags.B.Plastic bags.C.Cloth bags.D.Paper bags. ()42.Why do devices still use power when they are turned "off'? A.Because they are broken. B.Because the power button()is not pressed hard enough. C.Because they are in stand-by mode and electricity leaks. D.Because they need power to stay connected to the Internet. )43.What can we infer about local food from the passage? A.It is always more environmentally friendly.
