Studies have shown that burgers and fried chicken can cause health problems. However, fast food restaurants are still attractive. The most important reason is that their service is fast. Their staff are friendly and very smart-looking in their tidy and bright uniforms. Moreover, most fast food restaurants are near places that people often pass by. It is so easy to just grab a burger and eat on the way to work. Fast food is often so conveniently packed. Fast food restaurants are also very clean. A lot of clever ads have made them the coolest places, but none of them has ever told and will never tell you that too much fast food is not good for your health. Such attractive places are selling junk food. Isn’t it a pity? Is there a way to change the fast food restaurants into special places where you can get healthy and fresh food? As people realize the health problems that fast food causes, it is quite possible that fast food restaurants may go out of date sooner or later. Therefore, instead of saying no to fast food restaurants, a better idea may be to persuade (说服) them to change their menus! Fast food restaurants can be places to go when you want to eat something that will be good for your body. If they could combine healthy food with their speed of service and delicious tastes, that would be the next best thing on earth for people! 11.

It aims to highlight the problems of electronic waste. In 2023, it focused on “invisible” e-waste—— things most people don’t think of as electronics. Electronic waste, or e-waste, is the name given to old electronic devices that get thrown away. These can include old computers, phones, TVs, as well as all kinds of other electronic devices. E-waste is a big problem. While electronics can make life easier and more entertainment, the devices aren’t easy on the environment. As newer and more advanced devices come out, lots of electronics are thrown away, instead of being recycled. These things often end up in landfills, where the chemicals inside them may be a danger to the environment. Electronics can have dangerous materials like lead(铅) or mercury(水银). If these materials get into the ground or water, the pollution can cause serious problems. A group known as WEEE asked researchers from the United Nations to study a kind of e-waste that’s often not noticed. The WEEE calls this type“invisible” e-waste. The UN study shows that of all the 61 million tons of e-waste in a year, about 1/6 is“invisible”, and that the value of this unseen waste is worth about $9.5 billion a year. The surprising type leading the invisible e-waste group is toys. Worldwide, about 7.3 billion electronic toys are thrown away each year. These include toys like car racing sets, electric trains,musical toys and drones. In all, toys make up about 35% of invisible e-waste. But the problem is far larger than just toys. The UN report shows that other everyday things like home alarms, smoke alarms, power tools and computer cables are also big sources of invisible e-waste. The report says that 36% of the world’s invisible e-waste comes from these types. Nowadays, more and more people—— and governments—— know about the harm of e-waste, and they will make a greater effort to make sure electronics get reused or recycled. 16. Why is e-waste a big problem? A. Because it’s difficult to collect it. B. Because it costs people too much money. C. Because it takes up too much space. D. Because it pollutes the environment. 17. What does the underlined word“landfills” mean? A. Junk yards. B. Playgrounds. C. Public places. D. Gardens. 18. How many tons of invisible e-waste are there in a year? A. About 4 million tons. B. About 6 million tons. C. About 8 million tons. D. About 10 million tons. 19. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. Few people will pay attention to invisible e-waste. B. More landfills will be built to take in invisible e-waste. C. More invisible e-waste will be thrown away everywhere. D. More actions will be taken to reduce the harm of e-waste. 20. The purpose of the passage is to . A. tell the purpose of International E-Waste Day B. call on people to use fewer electronics C. draw attention to invisible e-waste D. explain the meaning of invisible e-waste 【答案】16. D 17. A 18. D 19. D 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文，介绍国际电子废弃物日，重点介绍“隐形”电子垃圾及其危害，呼吁重视该问题。 【16题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第三段“where the chemicals inside them may be a danger to the environment...the pollution can cause serious problems”，可以推出电子垃圾会污染环境，应选D。 【17题详解】 词句猜测题。根据原文第三段，电子垃圾被丢弃之后进入landfills，里面的化学物质会危害环境，可以推出landfills是垃圾场，应选A。 【18题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第四段“The UN study shows that of all the 61 million tons of e-waste in a year, about 1/6 is ‘invisible’”，6100万吨的六分之一大约是1000万吨，结合选项，约1000万吨最贴合，应选D。 【19题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文最后一段“they will make a greater effort to make sure electronics get reused or recycled”，可以推出人们会采取更多行动减少电子垃圾的危害，应选D。 【20题详解】 主旨大意题。全文围绕“invisible” e-waste展开，介绍隐形电子垃圾的种类、数量与危害，目的是引起人们对隐形电子垃圾的关注，应选C。 C A total of 1,935.3 grams of lunar samples (样品) were taken by China’s Chang’e 6 robotic probe from the moon’s far side, the China National Space Administration (国家航天局) announced on 28 June, as the space authority handed over the samples to scientists. “How much do these samples weigh?” is the most asked question by science and space lovers over the past two days. Zhang Kejian, head of the CNSA, placed the lunar dust in a special container (容器). He handed it over to Ding Chibiao from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). The samples have been taken to a lunar sample lab in Beijing, where the materials will be stored and initially processed. The samples, the first materials got from the moon’s far side, have special scientific value and will further increase humans’ knowledge of the moon’s history and help to speed up the discovery and development of lunar resources (资源), the CNSA said, noting that they are a “shared treasure” of humans. Ge Ping, one of the senior officials (官员), said that the samples appear to be “thicker and stickier” than those collected from the moon’s near side. It always faces Earth and there are some “lumps (块)” in the samples. “Next, researchers will unseal the container and then divide them. After preparatory work, scientists can get the samples according to some rules,” Ge told reporters. “We expect that studies will lead to new findings.” According to the official, the first lunar samples will be available for Chinese researchers around the end of 2024.

It is so common today that we often take it for granted. ____26____ The history of envelopes is probably much longer than you think. It is believed that the envelope first appeared in ancient Sumeria. It was used to carry money. ____27____ It was actually a hollow clay pocket. The first paper envelope was invented by the Chinese. ____28____ Later, it was used for sending messages. The design of the early paper envelope was very simple. It was just a sheet of paper folded and sealed with wax. Since the envelope was made completely by hand, it was very expensive. In the 19th century, printing and making methods improved greatly. In 1853, the American inventor Russell Hawes invented an envelope maker. ____29____ With these improvements, the cost of envelopes went down. Today, emails have become more popular than handwritten letters. ____30____ They are still part of modern life. A. However, the early envelope was nothing like what we use today. B. But do you know when and where the envelope first appeared? C. The machine could produce many envelopes every day. D.

B International E-Waste Day takes place every year on October 14. It aims to highlight the problems of electronic waste. In 2023, it focused on “invisible” e-waste—— things most people don’t think of as electronics. Electronic waste, or e-waste, is the name given to old electronic devices that get thrown away.
