A篇
Around the world, people are worried about the environment. Many people now prefer products and companies that care about the earth and cause less pollution. This need for green products has led large companies to change their business.
Before, customers used cheap plastic bags, and then threw them away. But now most supermarkets and stores usually provide reusable shopping bags for them. This causes less waste. They also offer more local products, because less energy is needed for carrying them from one place to another.
To help lower air pollution, big car factories are looking for other ways to control the amount of oil. Cars that use much less oil are very popular. Many companies are also developing electric cars. They produce no air pollution at all. Both kinds of cars have another advantage: They are cheaper to run and people don’t need to worry about oil prices.
The airline companies face an even greater green challenge. Airplanes use much more oil than cars. So many airlines are now developing planes that can run on some other kinds of oil. They create less pollution and cost less. The companies are also developing a new kind of planes, and some of them use solar panels (太阳能电池板) to fly!
Green businesses used to be popular with only a small group of people. But now, more and more companies have to show they care about the environment. Many products are marked “green” in order to look nice. However, people still have to be careful when choosing green products. It’s important to make sure the products are as environmentally friendly as the businessmen say.

( )2 What are the advantages of electric cars according to the passage?
a. Using cheap oil. b. Making little noise.
c. Running at low costs. d. Producing no air pollution.

( )3. The last sentence of the passage is written to ____.

三、任务型阅读。
All kinds of pollution and waste are harmful to the earth. And small steps add up to make a big difference. There are lots of steps you and your family can take to help the planet. Here are a few ideas.
Save energy First of all, turn off the unused lights in time and consider using energy-saving light bulbs (灯泡), which can save much electricity.Then use less water. For example, you can take shorter showers. Also, turning off the tap while you are brushing your teeth can save much water , too.
Choose green travel If the place you want to go is not far away, please ride a bike instead of driving a car. Riding a bike seems to be a better choice. Because it can help cut down the air pollution. Also, you can take public transportation, like taking a bus or subway.
Say no to waste The easiest step you should take is to avoid wasting food. Don’t take more than you can eat. Growing food needs much work. Moreover, extend the life of the things you own by taking good care of them. If something is broken, you can try to fix it or use it to make something else.
Use reusable (可重复利用的) things When you go shopping, don’t use a paper bag. Because it is not environmentally friendly. Disposable (一次性的) plastic and paper bags can pollute the oceans and the soil. They are hard to break down. A reusable cloth bag will be a wise choice.

Let’s try our best to protect the environment
Dear friends,
I’m a student of Grade 9. My name is Li Hua. As we know, we have only one earth. But in recent years, many disasters have happened on the earth and unusual weather has appeared very often. As students, what should we do?
Firstly, we need to spread something to protect our environment. For example, we can give talks on how important the environment is. It’s bad for us to live in a bad environment. Secondly, we’re supposed to save water and energy in our daily life. Thirdly, in order to reduce air pollution, it’s better to go to school by bike or on foot. Fourthly, the garbage can be divided into four types:recyclable waste, hazardous waste, food waste and other waste. Before putting the garbage into the dustbins, we should learn how to sort it. And we can use cloth bags instead of plastic bags.
If we all keep doing these things, I believe the environment will be better and better. Let’s try our best!
