【題目】 Every day there is less and less space on Earth for rubbish. Yet every day we make more and more rubbish. What can we do? We can recycle some of our rubbish. Recycling means that the rubbish will be made into something that can be used again.

Recycling helps Earth. And it saves space in rubbish dumps. Half of everything that we put into landfills could be recycled instead. In fact, most things made of paper, metal, glass and plastic can be recycled.

Paper can be broken into small pieces and made into new paper. Steel and aluminum cans（金屬雄）can be melted down（熔化）and made into new cans. The same is true of glass bottles. This can be done aver and over again. Recycling doesn't take as much energy as making these things the first time. So we can use less of Earth's fuel resources.

Plastic can be melted down, too. Then it can be formed into park benches, playgrounds and so on. Some people call plastic the "wood" of the future. Things made of plastic will last about 400 years-even if they stay outside in the weather. No wood can do that!

【1】The underlined word "landfills" in Paragraph 2 probably means _____________.

A. bench factoriesB. places for rubbish

C. green mountainsD. recycling centres

【2】According to the passage, what happens last to the can?

A. The can is put into a recycling bin.B. The can is melted down and reused.

C. A steel can gets filled with corn.D. A person uses the corn in the can.

【3】What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Cans should be melted down.

B. Old newspapers can be reused.

C. We can build benches that last 400 years.

D. We should recycle everything that we can.

【答案】

【1】B

【2】B

【3】D

【解析】

短文大意：本文關(guān)注的是地球污染問題，呼吁人們對垃圾進(jìn)行回收再利用，保護(hù)地球。

【1】題意：第2段下劃線的單詞“landfills”意思可能是_____________�？疾樵~義理解。put into投入/傾倒；根據(jù)上文And it saves space in rubbish dumps.和下文could be recycled instead.可知landfills是填埋垃圾的地方，places for rubbish符合句意，故選B。

【2】題意：根據(jù)這篇文章，罐子最后發(fā)生了什么?考查細(xì)節(jié)推斷。根據(jù)Steel and aluminum cans can be melted down and made into new cans.可知可以熔化制成新罐，故選B。

【3】題意：這篇文章的主旨是什么?考查主旨理解。A. 罐頭應(yīng)該熔化。B. 舊報(bào)紙可以重復(fù)使用。C.我們可以建造使用400年的長椅。D. 我們應(yīng)該回收我們能回收的一切。根據(jù)開頭We can recycle some of our rubbish. Recycling means that the rubbish will be made into something that can be used again.可知短文介紹的是垃圾的回收再利用，故選D。

【題目】

Every morning after breakfast, Wilbur walked out to the road with Fern and waited with her till the bus came. She would wave good-bye to him, and he would stand and watch the bus until it vanished around a turn. While Fern was in school, Wilbur was shut up inside his yard. But as soon as she got home in the afternoon, she would take him out and he would follow her around the place. If she went into the house, Wilbur went, too. If she went upstairs, Wilbur would wait at the bottom step until she came down again. If she took her doll for a walk in the doll carriage, Wilbur followed along. Sometimes, on these journeys, Wilbur would get tired, and Fern would pick him up and put him in the carriage alongside the doll. He liked this. And if he was very tired, he would close his eyes and go to sleep under the doll's blanket. He looked cute when his eyes were closed, because his lashes were so long. The doll would close her eyes, too, and Fern would wheel the carriage very slowly and smoothly so as not to wake her infants.

One warm afternoon, Fern and Avery put on bathing suits and went down to the brook for a swim. Wilbur tagged along at Fern's heels. When she waded into the brook, Wilbur waded in with her. He found the water quite cold--too cold for his liking. So while the children swam and played and splashed water at each other, Wilbur amused himself in the mud along the edge of the brook, where it was warm and moist and delightfully sticky and oozy.

Every day was a happy day, and every night was peaceful.

Wilbur was what farmers call a spring pig, which simply means that he was born in springtime. When he was five weeks old, Mr. Arable said he was now big enough to sell, and would have to be sold. Fern broke down and wept. But her father was firm about it. Wilbur's appetite had increased; he was beginning to eat scraps of food in addition to milk. Mr. Arable was not willing to provide for him any longer. He had already sold Wilbur's ten brothers and sisters.

"He's got to go, Fern," he said. "You have had your fun raising a baby pig, but Wilbur is not a baby any longer and he has got to be sold."

【題目】 Seeing someone who seems to be walking on a cloud sounds like a dream. But this scene indeed exists --- and it isn't just in your head. It's a popular attraction in the South American country of Bolivia called the Salar de Uyuni. The area covers a large amount of white, glistening salt and runs across 10,582 kilometers of the Altiplano and you can even see it from space.

What's special about the Salar? This salt flat can create an endless natural mirror (鏡子), which gives you an amazing experience. On a still day, a thin layer of water covering the salt changes the salt flat into "The World's Largest Mirror" reflecting the sky. Those who are lucky enough to see this natural wonder will tell you how difficult it is to find out the dividing line between the sky and land.

Some 40,000 years ago, water from the surrounding mountains gathered here and there were no outlets (出口) where the rainfall could flow out. So a huge lake was formed with natural salt inside. Over time, about 25,000 years ago, a rise in temperatures reduced the amount of rainfall in the area. The climate from wet to dry caused the water to slowly evaporate (蒸發(fā)). About 10,000 years ago, the body of water dried up and a deep layer of salt flat was left behind.

With about 10 billion tons of salt lying around it, it's no surprise that salt production in the Salar is a big business. But the real treasure lies under the surface of the salt flat, where around 70% of the world's lithium (鋰) reserves can be found. The lithium is used for powering mobile phones, laptops, electric cars and this resource could be of great value.

●25,000 years ago, the climate changes 【8】 to the evaporation of the lake.
