straws,enough to circle the Earth twice.They arealmost never recycled,and simply contribute to the great problem of plastic pollution;eight million tons of plastic isdumped into the oceans every year.Plastic straws are now the target of a growing movement to reduce their use.Possibly the first of such campaigns,Be Straw Free was started in 2011 by Milo Cress,who was only nine years old at the lime.“I noticed that whenever I ordered a drink at a restaurant,it would usually come with a straw in it,and I don Iusually need a straw,“he aid.“This seemed like a huge waste.Straws are made of oil,a precious and finite resource.Ismaking single-use plastic straws,which will be used for a matter of minutes before being tossed away,really what wewant to do with this resource?”Cress started asking restaurants in Burlington,Vermont,where he lived at the time,to stop providing strawsautomatically to customer and make them optional instead.Many agreed and his request made ripples（涟漪）nationwide.The restaurants that make the switch report a reduction in the number of straws they use between 50 and80%.The anti-straw sentiment has crossed borders into the UK,where straws have been included in a government planto ban ail plastic waste by 2042.Last year large pub chain Wetherspoons announced that it would replace plastic straws with paper alternativesacross 900 outlets.After the announcement,many smaller chains and pubs across the country followed suit.Accordingto Wetherspoons CEO John Hutson,the move will save 70 million plastic straws a year and the reaction from patronshas been“very positive”.Offering alternatives or making plastic straws optional,rather than banning them completely,is a common traitamong these campaigns.uThere are many other viable alternatives to single-use plastic drinking straws that are lessharmful to the environment,wildlife and humans/9 said Jackie Nunez,founder of The Last Plastic Straw.1、What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A.Plastic straws are too costly to produce.B.All plastic straws are dumped into the sea.C.Plastic straws are too small to be recycled.D.Plastic straws cause great pollution.2、What did Milo Cress ask his local restaurants to do?A.To make plastic straws optional.B.To stop the use of plastic straws.C.To charge the use of plastic straws.D.To reject the request for plastic straws.3、What is the Wetherspoons,effort to reduce the use of plastic straws?A.To ban the use of plastic straws.B.To close some of its outlets.C.To offer customers alternatives.D.To seek the governmenfs support.4、What is the Wetherspoons customers9 attitude towards the move?A.Uncaring.B.Favorable.C.Ambiguous.D.Disapproving.22.（8 分）Exposed soil isnt part of natures master plan.Good examples where soil is naturally found with noplants growing in are beneath freshly removed trees,or where the ground has been burnt by a land fire.In thesesituations bare soil isnt bare for long;within days seedlings（芽）begin to appear and cover the ground.In a few months9time,the scar is hardly noticeable.Unlike these natural examples,ploughed（耕犁）fields and freshly dug gardens are obvious examples created byman.But,left to nature,even these bare soils soon turn green with a large number of tiny seedlings.In fields,gardensand on grasslands,roadside and sports fields,along streets and on paths and pavements,we are constantly battling tostop weeds from growing.All we are doing is stop the recovering powers of nature.Whenever soil is exposed,weeds act like a kind of medicine to reduce the potentially harmful rays of the sun,so thesooner plant growth covers the soil over again,the better.Weeds also help to improve the fertility（月 巴 沃）of the soil.Their roots get the soil together,improving its structureand creating a more stable environment in which soil life can grow fast.Those weeds with a deep root draw up plantnutrients from deeper in the ground,making them available to plants growing near the soil surface.Above ground,thestems（茎）of weeds help trap fallen leaves which break down into the soil,adding to the fertility of the soil.As the soil becomes more fertile,different kinds of plants start to replace the“pioneering“weeds.Bushes move into take the place by gradually shading them out,followed in turn by trees,which eventually push up through the bushes,finally shading them out too.Fallen leaves from the bushes and trees carry on the job of building soil fertility that wasbegun by those very first weeds that grew on the bare soil.Then,when one of these mature trees is removed in a storm,leaving a wound of bare soil in the earth,the whole process starts again.1、When will soil be left bare?A.A land fire has just happened.B.A young tree is planted in.C.No one ploughs the land.D.No crops are planted in.2、Which of the following prevents the bare soil from recovering?A.Seedlings appearing in gardens.B.Reducing harmful rays of the sun.C.Removing weeds from pavements.D.Replacing plants in sports fields.3、What can weeds do for the soil?A.They create soil life.B.They help improve the soil.C.They get nutrients from the sun.D.They break down fallen leaves.4、How can the soil remain fertile after trees move in?A.By adding more weeds to the soil.B.By taking out the weeds constantly.C.By removing the previous bushes.D.By making use of the fallen leaves.23.（8 分）After I visited my elder sisters house,I was reminded just how different the apartment living with a childwas.She has a nice big house with a few floors,a big backyard and lots of toys.Her house is my son Tom火 little piece ofheaven.At her house there are little toys,big toys,a doll house,a play house and more!There are bedroom stocked withtrain tables,ride-on toys and big trucks.The main difference about being an apartment mom is that you cannot become a collector of“things”.I continuallyget rid of anything too large.When Tom was born,we made a rule that there would never be any stuffed animals in ourapartment that were larger than him at that time.We also made a rule that we would only ever have at most five stuffed“anything”at one time.So far this had worked out well for us.These rules left Tom with a few special soft creatures toplay with,but that can be easily put away.Since we want to keep the appearance of being clean city dwellers,we have limited Toms play things to one toybasket in the main living space and one big storage bin in his bedroom.I am constantly thinking about living spacewhen I buy anything for our little Tom.We love the storage bin in Toms room.It is tilled with fun play things.It is aplace to keep his toys and everything gets pulled in and out daily.Anything that doesnt fit is often weeded out to createspace.Tom absolutely likes going to his aunts house and pulling out every single toy available to him.Of course,Tom doesnot notice that when he returns home he only gets one basket of toys instead of many rooms of toys.Right now Tom livesfully in his 1,100-square-foot apartment and seems very satisfied with his basket of toys.K By Paragraph 1 the writer mainly wants to tell us that her s i s t er.A.loves buying toys for herself B.has several childrenC.lives in a house with many toys D.doesnt keep her house tidy2、What does the underlined part“weekend out“in paragraph 3 mean?A.removed B.washedC.stored D.played3、The last

from the more traditionalthree-course meal in favor of smaller snacks sampled in various types of restaurants,bars and cafes.In this way,in thecourse of an evening out,you might go to a restaurant for a tasty dish to eat at one end of town,to a bar with some livemusic at the other end,then for a coffee,and finally back to the restaurant for a further appetizer.Reasons for this trend are the fact that so many different types of restaurants have been set up recently,each withtheir own particular type of food and special atmosphere,combined with the increased quality in the type of snacksbeing offered.Gone are the cheese sticks of the old days,when appetizers were not really taken seriously.Some favoritesnacks of the moment are slices of hot pizza,creamy fish-based dishes and crispy cakes and so on.Prices for appetizers are not equal to a full meal;however,their new popularity has meant that are by no means ascheap as they used to be.Certainly,for that special occasion,a meal in a nice restaurant,complete with the pianoperformance,is hard to beat However,if we see that this trend for“butterfly eating”moving around several differentplaces in one evening-continues,then all the traditional style restaurants may well have to provide their own appetizerbars as well!1、Which of the following could best reflect the change of California peoples eating habits?A.People love more interesting restaurants.B.Most people eat less than they used to.C.A full restaurant meal is losing popularity.D.Food is combined with sports and games.2、What can we learn from Paragraph 2 that.A.appetizers used to be relatively importantB.the quality of snacks has been improvedC.restaurants have to cater for different customersD.new-style appetizers fueled the boom of catering business3、Diners who prefer appetizers of new t ypes,A.will be charged moreB.will be served betterC.can enjoy music performanceD.can eat in their neighborhood25.（10 分）We once had a poster competition in our fifth grade art class.“You could win prizes J our teacher told us as she wrote the poster information on the blackboard.She passed out sheetsof construction paper while continuing,wThe first prize is ten dollars.You just have to make sure that the words on theblackboard appear somewhere on your poster.”We studied the board critically.Some of us looked with one eye and held up certain colors against the blackboard,rocking the sheets to the right or left while we conjured up our designs.Others twisted their hair around their fingers orchewed their erasers while deep in thought.We had plans for that ten-dollar grand prize,each and every one of us.Imgoing to spend mine on candies,one hopeful would announce,while another practiced looking serious,wise and rich.Everyone in the class made a poster.Some of us used parts of those fancy paper napkins,while others used nothing butcolored construction paper.Some of us used big designs,and some of us preferred to gather our art tidily down in onecorner of our poster and let the space draw the viewers attention to it.Some of us would wander past the good students9desks and then return to our own projects with a growing sense of hopelessness.It was yet another grown-up trick of thesort they seemed especially fond of,making all of us believe we had a fair chance,and then alwaysalwaysrewardingthe same old winners.I believe I drew a sailboat,but I cant say that with any certainty.I made it.I admired it.I determined it to be the verybest of all of the posters I had seen,and then I turned it in.Minutes passed.No one came along to give me the grand prize,and then someone distracted me,and I probably never would havethought about that poster again.I was still sitting at my desk,thinking,What poster?when the teacher gave me an envelope with a ten-dollar bill in itand everyone in the class applauded for me.1、What was the teachers requirement for the poster?A.It must appear in time.B.It must be done in class.C.It must be done on a construction sheet.D.It must include the words on the blackboard.2、The underlined phrase in Paragraph 3 most probably me ans,A.formed an idea forB.made an outline forC.made some space forD.chose some colors for3、After the teachers words,all the students in the cl ass.A.looked very seriousB.thought they would be richC.began to think about their designsD.began to play games4、After seeing the good students9 desi
