Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.Smoking in indoor public places including public working place, public transportation vehicles and some other special outdoor working spaces has been banned in China since January . Should smoking be banned in public places? Of course, it should be. First, banning smoking in public places will not only help in saving smokers from various kinds of heath conditions and diseases, but will also be beneficial for passive smokers.Second, banning smoking in public places will put pressure on smokers to quit. Since a smoker is forbidden from smoking in public places, he will learn how to live without smoking a cigarette for long hours. Moreover, when a smoker doesnt see anybody around him smoking or smelling of cigarette, it might reduce his urge to smoke too. Thus, people have to quit smoking as a result of smoking ban.Smoking in public places influences non­smokers to take up smoking, especially adolescents. Since teens are in an impressionable age, when they see people around them smoking, they get encouraged to try it and then it becomes a habit, increasing the incidence of teen smoking. Moreover, asthma(哮喘) and ear infections are commonly seen in children who live around smokers, so if its banned in public places, these places will become safe for children and teens, healthwise.Looking from the economic point of view, since smoking is a major contributing factor to many diseases, it leads to absence from work. Moreover, employees who smoke tend to take breaks now and then to smoke, thus cutting back on their working hours. So, if employers want to increase work productivity and want to make sure that their employees remain healthy, they should ban and stop smoking in and around offices.At last, smoking cigarettes adds to the pollution of the air, so if it is banned, it will help in saving the environment from further deterioration(恶化)81.

Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer. A professor of environmental health and his students began studying the idea of rooftop gardening for cities. “I think vertical farming is an idea that can work in a big way, said Despommier. Why would we want to build skyscrapers filled with vegetables when weve been farming on the ground for 10,000 years? Because as the worlds population grows from 6.8 billion now to as much as 9 billion by 2050 we could run out of productive soil and water. Most of the population growth will occur in cities that cant easily feed themselves. And the fact that modern agriculture and everything associated with it chemical fertilizers and transportation full of carbon is a significant contributor to climate change, and suddenly vertical farming doesnt seem so magic one in the sky.“Vertical farming could allow food to be grown locally and sustainably, says Glen Kertz, CEO of Valcent. The result saves space vital in urban areas- and allows farmers to irrigate and fertilize with far less waste.At Valcents El Paso lab, crops grow in rows on conveyor belts. Moving them gives the plants the precise amount of light and nutrients needed, letting them grow 15 times as much vegetable as on a normal farm with 5% of the water that traditional agriculture does.Dedspommier plans to build a 30-story, city-block-size vertical farm that would have transparent walls to maximize sunlight and would produce enough food for 50,000 people. But it would cost hundreds of millions to build a full-scale skyscraper farm. Thats the main drawback: construction and energy costs would probably make vertically raised food more costly than traditional crops.Rooftop gardening for citiesan idea that can work in a big way ever-growing population especially 73. less and less productive soil and water 74. due to modern agriculture, chemical fertilizers and transportation full of carbon72. grow food locally and sustainably save 76. in urban areas irrigate and fertilize with far less waste harvest more with 77. 75.

The environment is in dire need of help because its being damaged, hunger is widespread throughout the world, and workers in third world countries are continuously being exploited. Therefore, individuals across the globe need to band(团结) together for a cause and use their collective efforts to make all the difference in the world.For instance, one person recycling a can or a bottle doesnt seem like much. But if every household in a given city were to recycle and conserve energy, that city could make a huge positive impact on environmental damage. Similarly, there are countless ways to help fight world hungerwhether its to donate money to a dedicated worldwide charity, donate canned goods to your local charity, or even make lifestyle changes like going vegetarian. World hunger is a massive problembut it doesnt mean individuals themselves cant make a difference. Worker exploitation is another huge problem.
