A new set of R's are here: Recycle, Reduce and Reuse. These three “Rs”,when used every day, can reduce the amount of waste going into landfills, reduce the litter polluting the land and water, conserve (節(jié)約) energy and save your money.
Recycling is one of the easiest ways to save energy, money and time while reducing the amount of garbage going into landfills.
Most communities have roadside pick?up service to recycle common household items like glass, steel, aluminum, newspaper and cardboard. By separating out the recyclable items from normal household trash, you can reduce the amount of trash entering a landfill by more than 75 percent.
Recycling one aluminum beverage can saves enough energy to run your television for three hours. Even better, local recyclers or scrap?metal dealers may pay money for your metal recyclables.
It is estimated that the 54 billion cans recycled last year in the US saved 15 million barrels of oil. That is equivalent (相等的) to the US oil consumption for one day. Recycling other household items offers similar savings in money and energy.
Composting food waste will reduce your trash load even more. A basic compost pile built with the help of instructions from numerous resources on the web can be constructed over a weekend, using materials easily obtained from local hardware or home improvement stores. In addition to reducing your waste, this all?natural recycling provides safe, clean and organic fertilizer for your garden, eliminating the need to buy chemical?derived products.
Finally, recycling other household items like computers, televisions and monitors and household chemicals like pesticides (農(nóng)藥) and paints will remove dangerous chemicals like mercury (水銀) and lead from the landfills.
If your community doesn't offer recycling programs, contact your local government to get one established.
1.What's NOT true about recycling in the eyes of the author?
A. It's energy?efficient.
B. It's money?saving.
C. It's time?consuming.
D. It's environmentally?friendly.
2.Recycling________aluminum beverage cans save enough energy to keep your TV on for half a day.
A. three B. four
C. five D. six
3.What's the possible meaning of the underlined word “composting” in the sixth paragraph?
A. Turning waste into fertilizer.
B. Throwing waste into dustbin.
C. Making waste clean and useful.

If a noisy neighbor is blasting music at all hours of the day and night, drowning out your phone conversations and interrupting your sleep, you can call the police. But what is a whale to do?
Natural noise from waves, wind, rain and even earthquakes is common in oceans. Unfortunately, man?made noise from oil and gas drilling, sonar, and ships is also present.
Low frequency noise has doubled off the California coast every decade since the nineteen sixties. The main reasons are ships' propellers (螺旋槳). They not only generate continuous low frequency sound, some propellers cavitate(形成氣穴), which means they create air bubbles that collapse, creating loud popping sounds.
Whales use low frequency calls to communicate across thousands of miles of ocean. They are threatened by noise pollution because it can prevent them from contacting each other and from locating their foods. Endangered humpback and right whales, which use fibrous baleen to strain food from the water, are the most at risk.
Scientists studying right whales off Canada's east coast have discovered that whales are sending louder calls through the water to make themselves heard. Because they invest more energy in making calls, they have less energy available for finding food and mating. Other scientists measuring whale calls against background noise pollution have discovered that right whales have lost about eighty percent of their normal communication area. This could seriously affect survival of this already threatened species.
Scientists don't have badges and guns, but they are trying to correct the noise pollution problem. By tracking ships and marine mammals and understanding how noise travels, they are creating sound maps. They hope to get shipping lanes moved so that the noise pollution ships create will not overlap with areas most important to the whales.
1.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Whales are in danger because of the noise.
B. Noise pollution is affecting whales.
C. Natural noise is good for whales.
D. How to protect whales endangered.
2.The following statements are true EXCEPT ________.
A. You can call the police if you are disturbed by a noisy neighbor.
B. Low frequency noise has doubled off the Canadian coast every decade since the 1960s.
C. Noise pollution can prevent whales from contacting each other and from locating prey.
D. Endangered humpback and right whales are the most at risk.
3.We can infer from the last paragraph that ________.
A. some areas important to whales are overlapped with the ship lanes
B. scientists are creating the sound maps by tracking ships and marine mammals
C. if scientists have guns, they can correct the noise pollution
D. scientists have worked out a plan to protect the whales
4.According to scientists,________.
A. right whales off the Californian coast have been in danger because of the loss of the energy
B. right whales cannot find food and mate for they lose a lot of living area
C. there are about 20% of the normal communication areas still available for the right whales
D. the right whales always invest most of their energy for making calls

If anything can be said about recordbreaking globetrotter (環(huán)球旅行家) Graham Hughes, it's that— throughout his travels— he's always kept his feet firmly on the ground.
The 33?year?old adventurer, from Liverpool, has become the first person to visit all 201 countries in the world without using a plane.
Hughes used buses, taxis, trains and his own two feet to travel 160,000 miles in exactly 1,426 days — all on a shoestring(資金微薄) of just $100 a week.
He spent four days “crossing open ocean in a leaky (漏的) boat” to reach Cape Verde on the North Atlantic, was jailed for a week in the Congo for being mistaken as a “spy”, and was arrested trying to “sneak (溜;偷偷地做) into” Russia.
And yesterday Graham Hughes trudged (長途跋涉) into Juba, the capital of South Sudan, to end the epic four?year journey that began in his hometown of Liverpool on New Year's Day 2009.
“I love travel, and I guess my reason for doing it was that I wanted to see if this could be done, by one person traveling on a shoestring,” he told the Christian Science Monitor. “I think I also wanted to show that the world is not some big, scary place, but in fact it is full of people who want to help you even if you are a stranger.”
Guinness has now confirmed that Hughes, who filmed the expedition for a documentary and raised money for charity Water Aid, has achieved the world record.
“The main feeling today is just one of intense gratitude to every person around the world who helped me get here, by giving me a lift, letting me stay on their couch, or pointing me in the right direction,” Hughes added.
1.Which of the following is NOT described Graham Hughes?
A. Globetrotter.
B. Adventurer.
C. The first person traveling around the world not using a plane.
D. Scientist.
2.Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?
A. When he traveled on the ocean, his boat was leaking water.
B. He was put into prison because of being considered a spy in the Congo.
C. He was caught in Russia because he stole something.
D. It was in South Sudan that he ended his epic four?year journey.
3.Why did Hughes make the world record that he had achieved into the film — the expedition for a documentary?
A. Because he wanted to be remembered by people all over the world.
B. Because he wanted to raise money for charity Water Aid.
C. Because he only wanted to record his experience.
D. Because he wanted to earn money.
4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. When he traveled all over the world, he got a lot of help from different people.
B. He often sleeps on the coach.
C. He often points the direction for others.
D. He is grateful to the people who have helped him.

You may know the saying: An apple a day keeps the doctors away. A recent study by the Chinese University of Hong Kong has discovered another saying: An apple a day keeps old age away.
The study involved fruit flies, as they share many genes with humans. Researchers gave one group of fruit flies normal food, and another group of fruit flies got the same food including apple.
The results showed that flies that ate apple lived an average of 55 days longer than the flies that didn’t eat apple. The study also found that apple-eating flies were more able to walk, climb and move about as they became old, the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry reports.
The researchers believe that the antioxidants (抗氧化劑) found in apples are good for health.
In another experiment, researchers studied the diets of thousands of women. They found that those women who often ate apples were 20 percent less likely to have a heart attack.
Scientists have recently discovered the apple’s genetic code. This allows scientists to make new kinds of fruit that are healthier. Researchers are already using this information to grow apples with added antioxidants. Antioxidants help to keep eyes and joints (關節(jié)) healthy and protect against heart attacks and cancer.
Apples that help people lose weight may be in supermarkets in just four or five years. They are said to be “extra healthy” apples that can stop people from overeating.
1.Fruit flies were used in the research because_______.
A. they are very easy to catch B. they are fond of eating apples
C. they can live longer than before D. they share similar genes with humans
2.By studying the diets of many women, researchers _______.
A. found they are healthier than men
B. helped them lose weight successfully
C. discovered the genetic code of the apple
D. proved apples were good for people’s health
3.From the story, we can infer that _____.
A. scientists are studying new types of apples
B. apples’ genetic code is similar to other fruits
C. women like to eat apples more often than men
D. people who eat apples are protected from heart disease
