 ( A )

Cut the Carbon Footprint

Everything you do leaves a “ carbon footprint”(碳足跡). For example, When you travel in a taxi, the car gives off (排放) CO2 into the air. CO2 is a greenhouse gas. Greenhouse gases make the earth become warm. To protect our environment, we need to leave less of a “carbon footprint”. How big is your carbon footprint? To get an idea, take a look at the following numbers.

Living areas

l  TV sets and DVD players produce 723kg of CO2 a year.

l  If you turn them off when you’re not using them, you can cut that number by 108kg.

Laundry room (洗衣房)

   Drying clothes in a dryer produces a lot of CO2

l  If you use your dryer five times per week, you produce 185kg of CO2 per year.

l  Dry your clothes in the sun instead.

Bathroom

l  If you take an eight-minute shower every day, you produce 616kg of CO2 a year.

l  If you only use six minutes to take a shower, you can cut that number by 154kg a year.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,判斷下列句子的正誤,正確的用“T”,錯(cuò)誤的用“F”。 1 CO2 is a greenhouse gas that can make the earth warm.

2 Watching TV and traveling in a taxi can produce little CO2.

3 If we use a dryer five times per week, we produce 154kg of CO2 per year.

4  If we spend less time taking a shower, we can cut the number of CO2.

5 The less of a “ carbon footprint” we leave, the better our environment will become.

The world is becoming smaller by using modern traffic, TV, telephone and so on. Life today is easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has also brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.

The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.

Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad to all living things in the world. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water, noise pollution makes us become angry more easily. The pollution of SO2 is now the most dangerous problem of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. It is true that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.

Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city. So the less pollution there is, the better life people will have.

The world is not only hungry but also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you, since nearly 70% of the earth’s surface is covered with water. But about 97% of that is sea water or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3% of fresh water from rivers, lakes, underground and so on. And we can not even use all of that because some of it has been made dirty.

Earth Day is April 22. But on all other days, we must also remember how important water is. The water that we use is the most important natural resource on the earth. Today we face serious water problems. One of them is water pollution. All kinds of things from cars, factories, farms and homes make our rivers, lakes and oceans dirty. Polluted water is very bad for people to drink. And dirty water is bad for fish, too.

How do cars and factories make our water dirty? First they pollute the air. Then when it rains, the rain water makes our drinking water dirty. Dirty rain, called acid rain is also bad for plants, animals and buildings. Scientists say that in 30 years, more than half of the people in the world won’t have enough clean water. We have to learn how to stop wasting water. One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it. Today in most large cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer system (下水道). From there it returns to the sea or goes underground.

But even though every large city reused its water, we would still not have enough. So we should make use of sea water by removing the salt in it. If we can take these steps, fresh water won’t be used up.

1.The world is thirsty for water because _______.

A. we don’t have enough fresh water      B. a lot of water goes into sewer systems

C. only 70% of the earth’s surface is water                  D. sea water is widely used rather than fresh water

2.From this passage, we know acid rain _______.

A. is only bad for living things       B. is not bad for buildings and factories

C. can be produced in factories        D. is bad for people, animals, plants and buildings

3.One difficult way we can solve the problem is to _______.

A. use the water with salt in it           B. remove the salt from sea water

C. get water from underground              D. reuse the water in cities

4.What is the best title for this passage?

A. Fresh water and sea water               B. A thirsty country

C. The importance of water  D. The world’s water problem

  In the 13th century(世紀(jì)), the famous Italian traveller, Marco Polo, travelled a long way to China.During his stay in China, he saw many wonderful things.One of the things he discovered was that the Chinese used paper money.In western countries, people did not use paper money until the 15th century.However(然而), people in China began to use paper money in the 7th century.

  A Chinese man called Cal Lun invented paper almost 2,000 years ago.He made it from wood.He took the wood from trees and made it into paper.He then put these pieces of paper together and made them into a book.

  Now paper still comes from trees.We use a lot of paper every day.If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth.If there are no trees, there will be no paper.Every day, people throw away about 2,800 tons(噸)of paper in our city.It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper.This means that we are cutting nearly 48,000 trees every day.

  Since it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow, we must start using less paper now.If we don't, we will not have enough time to grow more trees to take the place of those we use for paper.

  So how can we save paper?We can use both sides of every piece of paper, especially when we are making notes.We can choose drinks in bottles instead of those in paper packets(袋).We can also use cotton handkerchiefs(手帕)and not paper ones.

  When we go shopping, we can use fewer paper bags.If the shop assistant(店員)does give us a paper bag, we can save it and reuse it later.

  Everyone can help to save paper.If we all think carefully, we can help protect trees.But we should do it now before it is too late.

(1)

So far, the Chinese people have been using paper money for _______.

[  ]

A.

more than 1,000 years

B.

more than 1,300 years

C.

two thousand years

D.

five thousand years

(2)

Cai Lun began to make ________ nearly two thousand years ago.

[  ]

A.

paper

B.

paper money

C.

cloth

D.

cars

(3)

Paper is still made from ________.

[  ]

A.

water

B.

rice

C.

trees

D.

stones

(4)

The writer calls on(號(hào)召)us to ________.

[  ]

A.

eat less

B.

grow more trees

C.

begin to use less paper

D.

B and C

(5)

The writer tells us to ________ while we are making notes.

[  ]

A.

use both sides of the paper

B.

write in small letters

C.

be careful with our handwriting

D.

listen to the teacher carefully
