This day even has a name: Earth Overshoot Day(EOD).The Global Footprint Network, a nonprofit*organization calculate* this day. It has been marking EOD since 1971 by keeping record of how much water, land fish and forest we use, as well as how much CO2 were emitting*Each year, the human population grows and more resources are used. That's why EOD has moved forward by more than two months over the last 20 years. This year, it fell on the earliest date yet-- three days earlier than it did last year (August 1st )How much do we use ?Not all countries are the same when it comes to resource usage. Some countries have used more resources than other countries. A survey result from Global Footprint Network shows that America has used two times more resources than China. India has used the least. If everyone lived like Americans do, for example, we would need five Earths.What results do we get?Human beings are now using natural resources 1.75 times faster than they can be renewed*.This has affected the environment in a bad way.

Cities around the world are running out of water: Up to l million species*could die out thanks to human activity.What can we do?However, humans are taking some small steps to deal with the problem. Countries like China and India are trying their best to green the planet. China has called on its people to plant many trees around the country. It has made some of its deserts smaller.

I was so tired after losing my job.I was getting ready to go to bed when the phone rang. This could not be good. I thought that maybe one of my family members who might need help, but the voice was hardly familiar*.“Linda, this is Lesley.” I didn't know Lesley very well.She was the owner of a grocery* store in our community. I hardly went to the store because the groceries in the store were too expensive for us. We didn’t often speak with each other, but to say we were friends was not just right. I asked what she needed. Perhaps something really awful caused her to phone someone for help, even someone she didn’t really know. Instead, she asked me, “Do you have room for a turkey? In your fridge?” We had lots of room in our fridge, and in fact, too much. “Sure,”I answered, “Did your fridge break down?” “Not exactly,” Lesley replied, “but I will explain when I arrive.”Minutes later came a huge truck. Lesley stepped down and explained the lease* of thegrocery store that her husband serviced had run out and that they had to empty all the fridges that night. They thought it was a shame to throw away all this good food so they decided to drop off food to anyone she could think of. Lesley noticed our fridge was pretty empty, she asked to fill it up. Our home was their last stop and anything left would have to be put in our fridge. An hour later, everything finished, I asked her, "When will you come back for all this? Lesley laughed, “We don't want it back. It is yours! Thanks for helping us out!” Then they wave d goodbye and drove away.For helping them out? We opened our fridge door. Inside were all expensive foods we never bought but often longed* to try. We were struggling to buy groceries, yet it was not something we shared with anyone. However, our needs were met in an unexpected way, by that call, “Do you have room for a turkey?” The next day, I was surprised to find out that Lesley’s groceries store was still open, in fact, the lease was not true. I felt really warm and deeply moved when I thought of the way they helped us.37．We may infer the writer feel ______when she heard the phone ringing.A．angry B．worried C．surprised D．relaxed 38．What do we know according to the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2?A．They were running out of foodB．Their fridge was too large to fill.C．They were glad to put the turkey in the fridge.D．Their fridge was never used.39．What’s the best title for the passage?A．An empty fridge B．A strange friendC．An exciting phone call D．An unexpected help40．Did Lesley really need the room for the turkey?
