There were many famous poets living in the Tang period such as Li Bai, Du Fu, Bai Juyi and Li Shangyin. Quan Tangshi edited in the Qing Dynasty is a collection of about 48, 900 poems that were written by over 2, 200 poets. But it doesn't cover all the poems of the Tang Dynasty.During the Tang Dynasty, poems were recited when lovers walked under the moonlight. Poems were also recited when soldiers fought on the battlefield. People recited them in the open air or at temple fairs.In the Tang Dynasty scholar(s 学者)had to be poets. Their readers were not only people of high social positionbut also common people. Poets recited poems;women singers sang poems and other ranks of people, including old women and children, read Tang poems. This atmosphere affected foreigners who visited the country at that time.As a result, Tang poetry was introduced to some adjacent countries, like Japan and Vietnam.Tang poetry is a most brilliant page in the history of ancient Chinese literature. It's a miracle in the cultural history of mankind. The Tang Dynasty was a powerful empire with a vast territory. It inherited Chinese civilization that went back to ancient times, and was combined with the best of other cultures and adopted the benefits of other nations in the world. Tang poetry wasnt the only spiritual wealth created by people of the Tang Dynasty.Philosophy, handwriting, painting, music and dance all gained new peaks of development.

Started by Anna Giordano in 2014, it teaches kids to recycle, compost(堆肥), and reduce food waste.Lunch areas at the participating schools are equipped with three clearly marked bins compost, recycle andshare. While the first two are common in schools, the third is rare, where kids can put their unwanted drinks, fruits,and even untouched sandwiches. Items in the container are available for any student that wants them. Whatever remains at the end of the day is donated to the food bank. Giordano says the three bins have helped reduce the number of trash bags from an average of 22 to just 2!To ensure kids adopt similar habits at home, the non-profit has created extensive curriculum to educate families about the importance of sorting waste into the proper streams of recycling, composting, trash and food to donate They also urge parents to have open conversations with their kids about food choices.But as were all aware, kids arent the only ones that waste food - Adults are equally bad, if not worse! To prevent that, Josh Treuhaft founded Salvage Supper club in 2014. The occasionally organized dinners promise people a tasty multi-course meal for a mere $50 USD per person. It is also a plan to save waste because the delicious food is made from vegetables that are past their prime and, therefore, headed for the trash bin.The other catch? Customers have to eat their meals inside a dumpster(大型垃圾装卸车)! The place, of course, is totally clean. It is just a symbolic gesture. In addition to helping people rethink their actions, Treuhaft also helps them do good by donating part of the profits to non-profits devoted to fighting against food waste.28.

D. A dumpster is much cleaner than a restaurant.DAir pollution shortens human lives by more than a year, according to a new study from a team of leading environmental engineers and public health researchers. Better air quality could lead to a significant extension of lifespan(寿命) around the world.It is the first time that data on air pollution and the lifespan has been studied together in order to check how airpollution affects overall life expectancy.The researchers looked at outdoor air pollution from particulate matter (PM)(颗粒物) smaller than 2.5 microns. These particulates can enter deep into the lungs, and breathing PM 2.5 is associated with the increased risk of heart attacks, strokes and cancers. PM 2.5 pollution comes from power plants, cars and trucks, fires, agriculture and industrial emissions(排放物).Led by Joshua Apte, the team used data from the Global Burden of Disease Study to measure PM 2.5 air pollution exposure and its consequences in 185 countries. They then quantified the national impact on life expectancy for each individual country as well as on a global scale.“The fact that air pollution is a major global killer is already wellknown ，” said Apte. “And we all care about how long we can live. Here, we were able to systematically identify how air pollution shortens lives around the world. What we found is that air pollution has a very large effect on survival on average about a year globally.”In the context of other significant phenomena negatively affecting human survival rates, Apte said this is a big number.“For example, its considerably larger than the benefit in survival we might see if we found cures for both lung and breast cancer combined，” he said. “In countries like India and China, the benefit for elderly people of improving air quality would be especially large. For much of Asia, if air pollution were removed as a risk for death, 60yearolds would have a 15 percent to 20 percent higher chance of living to age 85 or older.”32. What do we know about PM 2.5?A.It will be controlled in the future. B.It has a bad effect on human health.C.It only comes from industrial emissions. D.It spreads to the world from Asian countries.33. What did the researchers do to study how air pollution affects the lifespan?A. They employed the research data to calculate the effect.B. They collected accurate information from all the Asian countries.C. They studied the disease and lifespan together time and time again.D. They measured particulate matter much more carefully than before.34. What can be inferred from the text?A. The key to people living longer is good air quality.B. People think air pollution is the most dangerous killer to them. C.Factories should decrease the production of cars to stop air pollution. D.Apte will agree that people should take action to deal with air pollution.35. What is the best title for the text?A. The Way Human Beings Enjoy a Longer LifespanB. The Importance of Getting Rid of Air PollutionC.Air Pollution Reduces the Lifespan by More than One Year D.Asian People Are Suffering from Serious Air Pollution第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分，满分 10 分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Apps (short for applications) are becoming increasingly popular nowadays, and for good reason.
