Last month Hong Kong officers found 131，000 kilograms of broken computers, TVs and phones sent from Japan.Things like these are called electronic waste, or ewaste. Dealing with it is not an easy job. Every time an old computer breaks down, it needs to be dealt with safely. What is worse, at present, broken computer parts are usually buried. It may be hundreds of years before they are really gone in the earth.Many places in China are polluted by ewaste. Guiyu in Guangdong Province is one of them. This town is named as “the ewaste capital of the world”. It has to deal with 1.5 million kilograms of ewaste each year, from which it makes 75 million yuan. But it comes at a cost. Many of the poisons in ewaste find their way into the environment. An environmental group has found the air, the earth and the rivers in Guiyu are badly polluted.Luckily, the Chinese government wants the country to change the situation. China has passed a new environmental protection law, the strictest one we have ever had. Computer companies like Lenovo and Dell are asked to take back their old computers. Hopefully, the problem with ewaste will be solved in the near future.()16.The ewaste found in Hong Kong last month was from ________.A．France B．JapanC．Germany()17.The underlined word “buried” probably means “________” in the passage.A．焚烧B．降解C．回收()18.The town of Guiyu in Guangdong Province ________.A．is the ecapital of the worldB．has serious ewaste pollutionC．deals with ewaste safely()19.Chinese government has________.A．closed some computer companiesB．asked people to hand in their old computersC．made a new environmental protection law()20.The passage is mainly about ________.A．the ewaste problem in ChinaB．the cost of burning ewasteC．the ways to deal with ewasteⅠ.任务型阅读(共5小题；每小题4分，满分20分)阅读短文，捕捉信息，根据短文内容完成文后的句子。

Her 1962 book Silent Spring made her well known by many people. It describes the harmful changes in the environment of using toxic(有毒的) chemicals on farmland.Carson's career started as a biologist in the USA Bureau of Fisheries. In 1951, she published her first book, The Sea Around Us, which became a bestseller. It made her rich enough to leave her job and devote her life to writing. She was a gifted writer. Her next two books were also about the oceans and both topped the book sales lists.Carson's book Silent Spring completely changed the way America thought about nature. It painted a bleak(荒凉的) future for the whole natural world. It led to a nationwide ban(禁止) on the use of a deadly chemical called DDT, and other toxic pesticides(杀虫剂) that farmers used for their crops. Many people say the book led to the creation of America's Environmental Protection Agency.Since her death, Carson's name has continued to be connected with protecting the environment.

There are many bad results of the greenhouse effect(温室效应). So, what can we do to help the earth? Let's think about ways of helping our beautiful planet.We should use energy more wisely. Summer is coming and as temperatures go up, many people turn on the air conditioner to keep cool. However, using the air conditioner too much is not good for the environment. Turn off the air conditioner while you are sleeping at night or when you are away during the daytime.Recycling can also save the earth. Glass, bottles and newspapers can all be recycled. This way may make less pollution and save more money.Try to use less hot water. Turn off the shower while you are washing hair. Ask your parents to wash your clothes with cool water. So we can save water and electricity.Planting trees is also a good way to help the earth. So, why don't we plant as many trees as possible? Trees help keep the air clean and fresh by giving off oxygen(氧气). They can keep everything around them cool in hot seasons. Also, they can help stop floods or droughts(旱灾) happening in some places.In fact, there are many things we can do in our daily life. If everyone can understand the importance of saving the earth and do something small to help, our environment will be better.()19.How many ways does the writer give us to help the earth?A．Four. B．Five.C．Six. D．Seven.()20.According to the passage, what should we do with the air conditioner?A．Never use it in hot weather.B．Turn it down at any time.C．Turn it up at any time.D．Turn it off when you want to go out.()21.Recycling ________ is NOT mentioned in the passage.A．glass B．bottlesC．ewaste D．newspapers()22.What's the passage mainly about?A．Ways of saving energy.B．Ways of recycling paper.C．Ways of saving the earth.D．Uses of planting trees.CAt East China University of Science and Technology, students will get a coupon(优惠券) if they eat up their food. Students can collect coupons and exchange them for small gifts, such as books, magazines, mobile phone covers and hand warmers.“It's been such a surprise，”said Liang Zhaoyun, 19, a student at the university in Shanghai. “It has given us one more motivation to finish our food.”The measure is part of a national “eatup”campaign(行动) which is organized by students to deal with food waste on campus(校园)．Why only on campus? You might ask. Because according to a report by Xinhua News Agency, students waste twice as much food as the national average(平均)．The campaign on campus food waste is receiving attention across the country.“The aim of the campaign is not only to encourage students to finish their food. We hope it can also encourage students to choose a more environmentally friendly and healthy lifestyle，”said Tao Siliang, secretary of the Youth League Committee at Shanghai University.But some school food is poorly prepared, so students do not like to finish it all. Some schools have taken notice of this and they are taking measures to improve it.“I'm glad that we've reduced food waste since the ‘eatup’ campaign began. But if we call on students to waste less food, we should also improve the service and food standard on campus，”said Tao.()23.From Paragraph 1, we know that the students will get a coupon________．A．when they eat school foodB．after they exchange giftsC．if they finish all their foodD．if they collect the waste()24.The “eatup”campaign is carried out on campus because ________．A．students get a good educationB．schools offer small giftsC．students waste too much foodD．school food is more delicious()25.The purpose of the campaign is mainly to ________．A．improve the school food standardB．encourage a greener and healthier lifestyleC．receive attention from societyD．further improve the service in universities()26.The best title for this passage may be ________．A．Enjoy Your FoodB．Reduce Waste on CampusC．Meals in UniversitiesD．“Eatup”Campaign on CampusⅢ.词汇运用(本题有15小题；每小题2分，共计30分)(A)用方框中所给单词的适当形式填空(每空一词)。

With its help，plastics can be turned into smaller parts and go away quickly. Scientists believe that，in the future，it could solve the problem of plastic pollution.The enzyme is able to break__down PET，a form of plastic. PET was first made in the 1940s and is now widely used to make plastic bottles. It can remain in the environment for many years and pollute large areas of land and water. So it has always been a headache to deal with the waste from PET and other plastics.The researchers made the discovery while examining the structure of a natural enzyme in Japan. They found that the natural enzyme was helping to break down PET plastics. So，they decided to make small changes to the enzyme by adding some amino acids (氨基酸). It made the natural enzyme's plastic-eating abilities work faster and better.John McGeehan，one of the lead researchers，said，“We've made an improved enzyme. It's better than the natural one. And we are trying to make more improvements to it.” He went on，“The enzyme is not harmful to humans or animals，and it is friendly to the environment. So we are considering putting it into wider use.”The team is now trying to make the enzyme break down PET in large quantities(大量地) . “We'll see that the plastic pollution may be stopped with this technology. However，there is still a long way to go，”John McGeehan added.26．According to the scientists，the enzyme may solve the problem of ________ pollution.A．air B．water C．light D．plastic27．The underlined phrase “break down” in the passage probably means “________” in Chinese.A．实验B．生产C．发明D．分解28．Researchers discovered that a natural enzyme helped eat plastics ________．A．in Britain B．in the USC．in Japan D．in China29．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．The scientists are still trying to improve the enzyme.B．The enzyme will pollute large areas of land and water.C．The natural enzyme works better than the improved one.D．The natural enzyme is harmful to humans and animals.30．What is the passage mainly about?A．The introduction to PET.B．A new kind of enzyme made to solve the problem of plastic pollution.C．American education.D．How to protect the environment.Ⅳ.书面表达(30分)为响应我市“创建国家卫生城市”的号召，5000多名市民以绿色出行的方式参与了“生态鄂州——环洋澜湖健步走”活动。

Travelling with kids is good f 1 them. They can find new interests. Travel makes information alive for kids, and makes it much more exciting than studying textbooks or d 2 experiments in the lab. While traveling, they learn h 3 to deal with new situations, and communicate with other people. They learn patience, because sometimes i 4 takes a long time to get to some exciting or interesting places.I’ve been traveling since I was seven years old. For me, to stop traveling would be like taking something a 5 from my soul（灵魂）. I can’t live without traveling and I wouldn’t be who I am if I don’t travel. Some people think it’s h 6 to travel after having kids. But in my opinion, when people become parents, it doesn’t m7 they couldn’t travel any more. My children have been traveling since they were three weeks old.Bringing a new life into the world comes with many responsibilities（责任）and I’d love to be a good mother. One of my duties is to e 8 my children. I’m so thankful that my parents took me on family trips when I was y 9 .I’ve learned that the outside world is more colorfu l than the little one I was living in. Of course, I want to pass these travel e 10 on to my children.I value the memories I have traveling with my children.
