【題目】 Our world is in danger. We must do something to protect the environment. But, what are the main problems we face?

The greenhouse effect

The atmosphere around the Earth is necessary for all living things. It is like the glass of a greenhouse, letting sunlight in and keeping heat from getting out. Without it, the Earth would be the same as the Moon-cold and lifeless.

When we burn fuels such as petrol and coal, we produce a gas called carbon dioxide (CO) Too much of this gas pollutes the atmosphere, and gets it to keep in too much heat. As a result of the greenhouse effect, the Earth's temperature is increasing. This led to sea level to rise, and in the future may make cities disappear.

Cutting down forests

Every year, we destroy nature by cutting down huge areas of forests. This makes greenhouse effect worse because trees take in CO and produce oxygen. Cutting down trees also destroys the homes of the animals that live in our forests, and makes the surface of the soil be easily destroyed by rain. This can result in floods and even more damage to the environment.

Bad habits

Many of our habits result in pollution. People often use things once and then throw them away. This creates mountains of rubbish and pollutes our land and seas.

1What is the atmosphere like?

____________________

2Why is the Earth's temperature increasing?

____________________

3How many things can be led to by cutting down forests according to Paragraph 4?

____________________

4How is a great deal of rubbish produced?

【題目】 When I was growing up, I was ashamed to be seen with my father. He was severely crippled(跛的) and very short. And when we would walk together, his hand on my arm for balance, people would stare. If he was ever noticed or bothered, he never let on(流露).

It was difficult to coordinate our steps—his slow, mine impatient—and because of that, we didn't say much as we went along. But as we started out, he always said, “You set the pace. I will try to adjust(調(diào)整, 適應(yīng)) to you.”

He never talked about himself as an object of sympathy(同情), nor did he show any envy of the more fortunate or able. What he looked for in others was a “good heart", and if he found one, the owner was good enough for him. I believe that is a proper standard by which we can judge people, even though I still don't know exactly what “a good heart" is.

Unable to engage in many activities, my father still tried to participate in some way.

I now know he participated in some things indirectly through me, his only son. When I played ball, he “played” too. When I joined the Navy, he “joined” too. And when I came home on leave, he saw to it that(確保) I visited his office. Introducing me, he was really saying, “This is my son, but it is also me, and I could have done this, too, if things had been different.” Those words were never said aloud.

He has been gone many years. I often wonder if he sensed my unwillingness during our walks. If so, I just want to tell him how sorry I was and how I regretted it.

Now I think of him when I complain about small affairs, when I am envious(羨慕的, 嫉妒的) of others’ good fortune, when I don't have a "good heart."

At such times, I put my hand on his arm to regain my balance, and say, “You set the pace. I will try to adjust to you.”

1The author felt unhappy while walking with his father mainly because ________.

A.it was hard for them to walk at the same paceB.he felt pity for his father's physical disability

C.he didn't want others to know he had an ugly fatherD.it was not easy for his father to keep balance

2The word “participate” probably means “________”.

A.joinB.preventC.fitD.avoid

3It can be inferred from the text that ________.

A.the father was proud of his only sonB.the father took part in all his son’s activities

C.the author was upset when asked to his father’s officeD.the author was an outstanding player

4In the last paragraph, the author tries to tell us that he________.

A.will follow his father's standards of being a good person

B.will learn from his father and try to be a good father himself

C.regrets his unwillingness to walk with his father

D.is now glad to help his father to walk

5What's the best title of the passage?

A.Look for “Good” in OthersB.This Is My Son

C.I'll Follow YouD.Judge with Your Heart

【題目】 Open an app, place your order, and wait for your food to be delivered(遞送)to your home-this is how many people eat in China these days. According to the latest report, 421 million Chinese people use online food delivery services. That's about half of the total number of internet users in China.

Which group of people is ordering food online the most? It's mainly young people. Meituan, a food delivery service, showed that 86.3 percent of the service's users are between 20 and 34 years old. These people, who live in small families, are driving the development of the food delivery industry. Small families depend greatly on food delivery services.

Chinese families have changed in size over the past years. In 2002, only 7.7 percent of them were single-person families. But this number increased to 15.6 percent in 2017. The two-person families rose from 18.4% in 2002 to 27.2% in 2017. For small families, cooking needs more time and materials, so ordering food online has become more popular.

The food delivery services have become much faster than before at present. According to Meituan's report, the time it takes to make a food delivery dropped from 38 minutes in 2016 to 29 minutes in 2019. Many delivery platforms(平臺(tái))are also offering more services, delivering products such as fruit, vegetables, medicine and flowers. More and more customers are interested in the improvement of China's food delivery services. As its services continue to improve, it's possible that the food delivery industry will keep growing.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,判斷正(T)、誤(F)

1There are about 850 million internet users in China now.

2The people from small families are driving the development of the food delivery industry.

3The number of big families has increased over the past years in China.

4Now it takes us more time than before to get our food from the online delivery services.

【題目】 Here is the introduction of the smallest library in the world.

The Little Free Library has first appeared on the streets of New York City. It is so small that only one person can come in at a time. It was set up in a neighborhood in Manhattan. There are only 40 books in the library. In fact, it is not a house but a plastic building. Two designers designed it. The library was made of recycled materials. It looks like an umbrella so that all the books in it can be protected from bad weather. Readers can look at the books before they go into the library because there are also some holes outside the building.
