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 thenatural 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。

The scientists found that the number of large fish has dropped by 90 percent in the past fifty years. The studytook ten years. The researchers collected records from fishing businesses and governments around the world. The magazine Nature published (发表) the findings.The scientists say the common way called long line（多钩长线）fishing is especially harmful to large fish. This way includes many fishing lines that are connected (连接) to one boat. If these lines are joined together, they can reach one hundred kilometers. They hold thousands of sharp metal hooks to catch fish. Long line fishing is especially common in the Japanese fishing industry. Records showed that Japanese boats used to catch aboutten fish for every one hundred hooks. The study says long line fishing boats now might catch one fish per hundred hooks.The scientists say business fishing can destroy groups of fish much faster than in the past. The study suggests that large fish can disappear almost completely from new fishing areas within ten to fifteen years. Ocean life systems could be destroyed.It's not the only worry that the number of large fish is becoming smaller and smaller. What's worse, they are smaller in size than their ancestors (祖先).1.The underlined word “hooks” in the second paragraph means ________.A. 钩B. 镰刀C. 圈套D.引诱手段2. The number of big ocean fish is becoming smaller and smaller because ________.A. the oceans are pollutedB. many ways of fishing go into practiceC. long line fishing is widely used in the Japanese fishing industryD. the scientists and government pay little attention to them3. According to the passage, how do you feel about business fishing?A. It should be encouragedB. It can balance ocean life systems.C. It needn’t be cared aboutD. It may bring much harm to ocean fish4. Where is the passage probably taken from?A. A story bookB. A sports newspaperC. A fashion magazineD. An environmental report5. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. Long line fishingB. Japanese fishing industryC. Modern fishing waysD. Worrying situation of big ocean fishBOne day a man found a cocoon (茧) of a butterfly in the forest. He sat there for several hours and watched the butterfly. Suddenly a small opening appeared, and the butterfly made its great effort to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no further.So the man decided to help the butterfly. He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly could come our easily. But to hissurprise, the butterfly got a heavy body and very small wings when it came out of the cocoon.The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would become larger and be able to fly. But neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling (爬) around with a heavy body and small wings. It was never bale to fly.The man was in his kindness, but he did not understand the nature rules. Before the butterfly came out of the cocoon, fluid (流体) from its body must be forced into its wings, and then it would be ready for flying. It must have a hard struggle (拼搏) to get through the small opening to get its freedom from the cocoon.Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allowed us to go through our life without any difficulties, it would make us fail. We would not be as strong as we could have been; we could never fly.1. What was the butterfly doing at the beginning of the story？A. It was trying to make a cocoon for itself.B. It was struggling to get out of its cocoon.C. It was flying among the trees in the forest.D. It was crawling around quietly on the ground.2. The man cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon ____.A. to take the butterfly homeB. to help the butterfly come out easilyC. to kill the butterflyD. to stop the butterfly growing bigger3. What do you think of the man?A. Patient but cruel.B. Careful and wise.C. Kind but unwise.D. Brave and funny.4. What does the last paragraph (段落) tell us?A. Struggles are sometimes necessary in our life.B. Nothing is difficult if we put our heart into it.C. Every good deed will come back with good result.D. The greatest happiness in the world is to help others.5. What is the best title for the story?A. The Love for the CocoonB. The Joy of Helping Each OtherC. The Lesson of the CocoonD. The Expectation for the ButterflyCThere are some easy things you can do to protect the environment and the earth.

It co v ered many cities with thick clouds of yellow dust (尘土).The storm，which came from Mongolia，has become the largest sandstorm in China in the past 10 years. Many flights were canceled because the v isibility (能见度) was lower than 500 meters.The storm was the result of warm and dry weather in the area，together with the strong winds from Mongolia. “There has been little rainfall so far this spring and the temperature is rising. So now it is a worrying time for sandstorms，” said an expert from Beijing.In recent years，sandstorms ha v en’t been as common in northern China as before. Thanks to China’s Three-North Shelter Forestation Project (TNSFP三北防护林工程) which started in the 1970s，the land with desertification (沙漠化) has been falling by about 7，000 km per year in China，and the area of sandy land has been decreasing by about 1，000 km a year. Millions of trees ha v e been planted in northern China to pre v ent sandstorms and protect the en v ironment.Besides，China has a color-graded weather warning system (预警系统) for sandstorms，with red meaning the most serious，followed by orange and yellow. Therefore，people would ha v e time to get prepared for the sandstorm.()39.What caused the sandstorm from Mongolia？A.Cold and wet weather together with the strong winds.B.Warm，dry weather and the strong winds.C.Warm，wet weather and the strong winds.()40.The underlined word “decreasing” means “”.A.going upB.putting downC.going down()41.When did TNSFP start？A.In the 1970s.B.In the 1980s.C.In the 1960s.()42.If the v isibility in your city is 700 meters，what color will the warning be？A.Red.B.Orange.C.Yellow.()43.What can we infer (推断) from the passage？A.We ha v e taken some actions to pre v ent sandstorms.B.Sandstorms ha v e ne v er changed.C.The weather is getting worse and worse.C请阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，从方框内所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余项｡Farmyard robots can cut down chemical pollution44.？Many of them use chemicals to kill weeds (杂草). The trouble is，these weedkillers also kill wildlife，pollute ri v ers and are bad for the fields.45.. This kind of robot can cut weedkiller use by 90％. The robot is really smart because it only kills weeds but not crops (庄稼).46.Se v eral cameras are built into the robot. The cameras facing the ground take photos to help the robot “see” the plants it passes.The robot compares each photo to a library of plant photos to decide on which plants are weeds.Robot arms mo v e into position to gi v e a small dose (剂量) of weedkiller on the weeds.The robot is energy-friendly. 47..How the robot will de v elopThe scientists do not want to just stop at the achie v ement they ha v e made. 48..

It changes slowly o v er hundreds or e v en thousands of years. For example，we know that in the past large parts of the world had lots of ice and snow. This slow change is a normal part of our world，but today’s climate is changing v ery quickly. The Earth’s temperature is getting warmer faster than e v er before.The reason for this fast change is us：people. We are using a lot of fuel(燃料)，destroying(破坏)forests，eating a lot of meat and drinking a lot of milk from cows. All of these acti v ities produce a lot of gases—things in the air，such as carbondioxide(CO2)—that make the Earth hotter.No one knows exactly what is going to happen to our climate in the future. Lots of CO2 and other gases are now in the air and they will continue to make the Earth hotter for hundreds of years. This means that icewill become water，so seas will rise and some places will be under water. The weather will be worse and there will be more storms.It sounds v ery bad，but it is possible to help stop these changes to our climate. We can help by walking，cycling or using the bus，not the car. We can also tra v el less in planes，eat less meat and make changes at home to use less energy.请阅读下面的非连续性文本，根据语篇内容，回答问题｡Mobile phones help us keep in touch with each other.

In fact，e-waste doesn’t only come from these things，but other electronics as well.What is e-waste？It includes all things with batteries (电池) or wires (电线).E-waste is bad for the earth.In 2019，the world produced around 53 million tons of e-waste. This is e v en hea v ier than all adults in Europe. The world’s e-waste will reach around 84 million tons by 2030.It leads to not only a great harm to the en v ironment，but a waste of v aluable resources (资源). In fact，e-waste includes v aluable resources such as gold，sil v er and so on. Besides，one smart phone battery can pollute 600，000 liters (升) of water. How can we deal with e-waste？RecyclingYou can gi v e it to a recycling center in your community or some recycling companies.You can also repair your electronics instead of buying new ones.An artist recently made some works using electronic waste. They are certainly cool pieces of art. “We thought we should make full use of them to protect the en v ironment. All of us should do our part，and I’m only one of them，” he said.▲You can put it in a second-hand market. Some people prefer to use older and cheaper products. And you can get money from these old things.Donating (捐献)You can donate it to someone in need or who can’t afford new products.54.What products will become e-waste in our daily life？(Two examples are OK.)55.【跨学科综合题】Compared with 2014，the e-waste in 2030 will increase by million tons.

Polar Bears spend most of their li v es on the ice which co v ers the Arctic(北极的) seas. As the world gets67.，the Arctic is warming about twice as quickly as other places. This is making the ice cap smaller and thinner. Scientists say that the ice could melt(融化) 68. during the summers by 2040. For polar bears，that’s a matter(大事) of life and 69.. Polar bears depend on the sea ice to tra v el，find mates(配偶)，and hunt(打猎).In the winter，when there’s enough ice，polar bears eat as much as possible to store up energy. But if there’s less winter ice，polar bears will ha v e less area for hunting.Summers are the 70.time for polar bears. With less ice to tra v el on，they ha v e to spend more time on land，where there isn’t much food. Polar bears ha v e no 71.but to go as long as six months without food. But rising temperatures in the Arctic are causing the days without ice to come sooner and last longer. That means the bears ha v e no food to eat for a v ery long time.

In order to make the acti v ity go smoothly，the head teacher called on the students to prepare for it three days ago. They discussed the ideas in groups，searched for the materials and showed the projects. They were surprised to enjoy the art pieces made of rubbish. Li Mei was pleased to show her beautiful clothes made of old cloth and waste materials. Wang Lei made a big tree of old newspapers to get people to understand the importance of protecting trees. Lin Li came up with the idea of making robot models with bottles，old discs and other waste materials. E v eryone got a strong feeling of satisfaction when they took part in theacti v ity.

We did a sur v ey about food waste in different schools in the world. Here are the results.The students ha v e wasted food seriously. Nearly 1/3 of the meals pro v ided for them in school are wasted. In the sur v ey，we found there are two main reasons causing the problems. One of the reasons why students waste food is its quality and taste. They don’t think the food materials are fresh enough. And they think the food has a bad taste. The other important reason is that students cannot realize the problems caused by food waste.Luckily，schools around the world ha v e taken action. As we know，the schoolin Whitewater in the US has added lessons on en v ironment this year，which makes the students better understand the idea of sa v ing food. The school in France has set up groups to help the students learn that food waste is harmful to the en v ironment. As for China，in order to encourage students to reduce food waste，the schools make some strict rules that include ordering some food that they need or stopping students from throwing away the food.

Global warming is a big problem that we are facing now. We should do something 1 stop it. Planting more trees is one of the best ways. Trees can remove carbon dioxide 2 the air and stop global warming. According to a news report, China is doing a great job of “greening”. For example, 3 1962, China has been planting trees in Saihanba, Hebei Province. It was once a dessert. But now, China has turned the area into the country’s largest man-made forest. Today, many Chinese people have joined in Ant Forest to plant their 4 virtual (虚拟的) trees. 5 the virtual trees are big enough, Ant Forest will plant real trees somewhere in the world. In this way, many trees have been planted in the world.二、选词填空从方框中选择适当的词并用其正确形式填空，使短文通顺、意思完整。
