think about how lonely I felt.Soon after,I began to control my eating,considering it another solution to my homesickness.But soon there wassomething wrong with me.Finally,I went to see a doctor.When the doctor told me I had no choice but to take time away from school,Istarted to fear.How could I stop?School was what I was best at.“Im not so bad,”I thought in my head.But theresult was that I was taken to hospital again a month later and my mother camewoefully.I had to take a semesteroff from school,and go to the treatment center near my home.If there are girls who are suffering similarly,I

of our oldest,simplest and most important inventions.But it also presents a danger to the worldintwo importantways.First,the making of paper requires the lossof many millions of treeseach year.Andworldwide use of paper is expected to double in the next 40 years.Clearly,the planet cannot stand such a highrateof forest loss.The second greatproblem withpaper iswhat happens once itisno longeruseful.A largeamount of wastepaper ends up in landfills,where it can produce harmful gases and finally contribute to globalclimate change.One simplesolution can greatly reduceboth oftheseproblems:paper recycling.Insteadof cutting downtrees,recycle existing paper to feed the paper-making process.Paper is mainly made from cellulose(纤维素)，which can be used repeatedly in papermaking.Unfortunately,it also means that paper waste takes a surprisingly long time to break down in landfills.So far,trees are the onlysource(来源)of cellulose that can fill the great demand for paper products.Therefore,recycling paper is simplyone of the best ways to save trees.Thanks to advances in processing,recycled paper need not be the dark-color1edstuff many of us are familiar with.It now can offer the same print performance as non-recycled paper.Effective recycling requires a continuous effort from everyone at all levels of society.The way to begin is witheducation and understanding.Once enough people realize the need for recycling,more effective recycling systemscan be developed.The need isreal.The massivelossof treesaffects everybodyon earth.Everyoneshoulddo theirparttorecycle paper and encourage government and industry to do the same.The world will be a better place for it!8.What can we infer from the text?A.The use of recycled paper will double in 40 years.B.Recycling paper helps relieve global climate change.C.Wastepaper can easily break down in landfills.D.There are not enough landfills for wastepaper.9.What makes recycled paper more

trees.B.Recycling paper.C.Improving recycling system.D.Promoting paper industry.11.How is the text mainly developed?A.By analyzing causes and effects.B.By offering research plans and data.C.By discussing problems and solutions.D.By comparing strengths and weaknesses.DIs renting clothes greener than buying them?Sustainable(可持续的)fashion expert Elizabeth Cline isnt sure.Clothing renting is a hot new industry and businessmen are trying to attract shoppers who care about theenvironment.Last summer alone,Urban Outfitters,Macys,Bloomingdales American EagleandBanana Republicallannounced renting services a sure sign of changing times.But is renting fashion actually more environmentally-friendly than buying it?And if so,how much more?Journalist and author Elizabeth Cline researched this question in a feature article for Elle,and she concluded thatits not as sustainable as it seems.Take shipping for example,which has to go two ways if an item is rented receiving and returning.Clinewrites that consumer transportation has the second largest carbon footprint of our collective fashion habit aftermanufacturing.Then theres the burden of washing,which has to happen for every item when its returned,regardless ofwhether or not it was worn.For most renting services,this usually means dry-cleaning,which is a pollutingprocess.All the renting services that Cline looked into have replaced perchloroethylene,a carcinogenic(致癌的)air pollutants thats still used by 70 percent of US dry cleaners,with hydrocarbon(碳氢化合物)alternatives,although these arent great either.They can produce harmful waste and air pollution if not handled correctly.Lastly,Cline fears that renting services will increase our appetite for fast fashion,simply because its so easilyaccessible.Theres something called“share-washing”that makes people have more wasteful behaviors because aproduct or service is shared and thus is considered more eco-friendly.Uber is one example of this:advertised as away to share rides and reduce car ownership,and yet it has been proven to discourage walking,bicycling andpublic transportation use.Renting clothes is still preferable to buying them cheap and throwing them into the bin after wearing them afew times,but we shouldnt let the availability of these services make us self-satisfied.Theres an even better step and thats wearing what we already have.12.What do we know about Elizabeth Cline from the passage?A.She is trying to attract shoppers.B.She is an expert and journalist.C.She has created“share-washing”.D.She never rents clothes.13.Why does renting services increase peoples appetite for fast fashion?A.Because it is handled correctly.B.Because it is transported easily.C.Because it is fairly eco-friendly.D.Because it is easily accessible.14.What can we infer from the passage?A.Clothing renting became popular ten years ago.B.Consumer transportation has the largest carbon footprint.C.Renting clothes deserves further consideration.D.Uber is a good example of sharing rides.15.Which section of a newspaper does the text probably come from?A.Environment.B.Technology.C.Travel.D.Medicine.第二节（共第二节（共 5 5 小题；每小题小题；每小题 2 2
