A

In less than two months, a newly opened mini-market in a village in Xigaze City, Southwest China’s Tibet autonomous region, has won a large number of customers. “Trash for cash”—that is the secret behind its success. Villagers can redeem(兌換)goods with used boxes and drink bottles.

Early in the morning, Drukhyun, the first secretary of Chumik village, came to check the stock-sheet(存貨單). “More and more people are coming to redeem goods and we need to timely add stocks,” Drukhyun said.

Sonam Dorje came early with a big bag of waste paper. He redeemed 16 points

which he used to get a bag of salt. “I used to throw them away directly. Now I can redeem them at the market, which is an additional income for me,” Sonam Dorje said.

Yet the move(行動(dòng))was not quite well received in the beginning, until they put their eyes on the pupils. The children used recyclables in exchange for snacks and soon the news spread. Now over 100 villagers have redeemed products with a market value of over 5,100 yuan (about $801).

Technology has also made the low-carbon lifestyle smarter and cleaner. In a community in Lhasa’s Chengguan district, the intelligent recycling bins can calculate the weight and upload the redeemed points to cards held by local residents. “When the trash bins are full, it will automatically ‘remind’ the cleaning staff to empty them,” said Pendran, director of the district’s waste sorting office. He added Chengguan district has built 220 garbage recycling stations and will install more to further perfect the whole system.

11. How long did it take for the mini market to succeed?

A. About a year. B. Less than two months.

C. Half a year. D. More than two months.

12. Why does Drukhyun check the list early in the morning?

A. He needs to clean the waste. B. He has to count the cost.

C. He needs to sell more goods. D. He has to add some goods.

13. How did the move become popular?

A

When it helped improve kids’ eyesight.

B. When it encouraged pupils to take part.

C. When it attracted more than 100 villagers.

D. When it enjoyed a market value of 801 dollars.

14. What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. Technology has made the process easier.

B. People will not make any more trash cans.

C. People don’t know how to make life smarter.

D. Technology has made the cleaning staff jobless.

15. Where can you probably read the article?

A. On a poster. B. In a travel guide.

C. In a newspaper. D. In a scientific magazine

B

Partricia Pania never wanted to be a national public figure. All she wanted to be was a mother and a homemaker. But her life was turned upside down when a driver distracted(分心)by his mobile phone, ran a stop sign and crashed into the side of her car. The crash killed her two-year-old daughter.

Four months later, Partricia hesitantly but courageously decided to try to educate the public and to fight for laws to ban drivers from using mobile phones while a car is moving. She wanted to save other children from what happened to her daughter. In her first speech, Partricia got off to a shaky start. She was visibly trembling and her voice was soft and uncertain. But as she got into her speech, a dramatic change took place. She stopped shaking and spoke with a strong voice. For the rest of her talk, she was a forceful and powerful speaker. She wanted everyone in the audience to know what she knew without having to learn it from a personal tragedy. Many in the audience were moved to tears, and to action.

In the following presentations, Partricia became known as a highly effective speaker. Her appearance on a talk show was broadcast(播出)three times, bringing her message to over 14,000,000 people. Her campaign increased public awareness of the problem and made over 300 cities and several states consider restrictions(限制)on mobile phone use.

The manatee(海牛)is a large marine mammal(海洋哺乳動(dòng)物). Manatees are also known as sea cows because of their slow, lazy nature and their grassy meals. Although they have such a name, they are more closely related to elephants. Manatees and elephants evolved from the same ancestor(祖先)over 50 million years ago.

There are three kinds of manatees. The West Indian manatee lives along the North American east coast from Florida to Brazil. The Amazonian manatee inhabits(棲居在)the Amazon River and the African Manatee swims along the west coast and rivers of Africa. Manatees differ in size from 2.4 to 4 metres and can weigh 200 and 590 kilograms. Though they may seem cumbersome, manatees can swim quickly and beautifully. Manatees usually swim about 8 km/h, but they can swim up to 24 km/h when they feel a need for speed.

Like whales and dolphins, manatees breathe air. They go to the surface for air every three to five minutes. However, they can hold their breath underwater for up to 20 minutes. This may have to do with the size of their lungs, as they are a large part of the manatee’s body.

Manatees have been under attack by humans for a long time, threatened by fishing nets and coastal development. The IUCN’s Red List of Threatened Species lists all manatees as vulnerable(脆弱的)or endangered and facing a high risk of dying out.

21. Why are manatees also known as see cows?

A. Both manatees and cows are mammals.

B. Manatees and cows have similar natures.

C. Manatees and cows have the same ancestor.

D. Manatees and cows appeared at the same time.

22. What can we know from paragraph 2?

A. Manatees are sorted by where they live.

B. Manatees are too heavy to swim very fast.

C. Manatees’ swimming speed is over 24 km/h.

D. Manatees weigh differently in different places.

23. What does the underlined word “cumbersome” probably mean in paragraph 2?

A. Large and lazy. B. Large and strong.

C. Heavy but quick. D. Ugly but strong.

24. What will the next paragraph of the passage probably talk about?

A. Why manatees have been under attack by humans.

B. The introduction of other kinds of marine mammal.

C. How to protect manatees from dangers or extinction.

D. Some further information about the nature of manatees.

25

Which of the following is the best title for this passage?

A

Elephants in the Sea B. Three Kinds of Manatees

C. Protecting Sea Cows D. Manatee, an Endangered Animal

【答案】參考范文：

Dear Mark,

I stopped by your office this afternoon, but you weren’t there. I was going to ask you if you want to enjoy a dragon boat race with me since the Dragon Boat Festival is coming.

As a traditional Chinese festival, the Dragon Boat Festival is celebrated in memory of the death of a Chinese poet, Qu Yuan. During this festival people are fond of eating zongzi, a dumpling made of rice covered with bamboo leaves. In addition, Chinese people often organize dragon boat races, which is said to protect Qu Yuan’s body. The races are undoubtedly fantastic to watch. You can’t miss it.

I want to make sure whether you want to check it out with me this year. We can meet at the school gate at 2 p.m. on Saturday. I look forward to your reply.

Best wishes
