Green Middle School started a recycling project last year. The goal was to teach students how to protect the environment by recycling.
First, the school put different recycling bins in classrooms and hallways. Students learned to separate paper, plastic, and glass into these bins. Teachers gave lessons on how recycling helps reduce waste and save resources.
Next, the school worked with a local recycling centre. Once a month, workers from the centre came to collect the recycled materials. They explained how the materials are turned into new products, like notebooks, from recycled paper.
The project has been successful. Students now recycle 80% of their rubbish, compared to 30% before. They also created posters to display around the school, encouraging others to join in.
“The project taught us that everyone can help the environment，” said Li Mei, a student. “Small actions, like recycling a bottle, really make a difference.”

C(2024南京玄武期中)
Every year on October 4 the world comes together for animals everywhere. This is World Animal Day.
It started in 1931 in Florence, Italy when ecologists banded together to raise awareness of endangered species. Since then, the yearly event has been used as a means of connecting “animal welfare(福利) organizations, youth clubs, businesses, community groups, and individuals …” to raise awareness for their work and funds for causes ranging from the care of working animals to the protection of endangered tigers and the prevention of habitat loss.
Over the years, China has done much for domestic and wild animals. The protection of Asian elephants is a good example.
Asian elephants have become endangered because of hunting for their ivory tusks(象牙). Asian elephants in China are mostly found in Yunnan Province. These wild animals sometimes eat local farmers' crops. The government has been trying to create a more friendly relationship between local people and wildlife. For example, it bans(禁止) ivory trade and makes rules for building separation facilities(隔离设施) to keep away wandering(游荡的) wild animals.
In the spirit of World Animal Day, we all can think of more ways we can better protect both the animals around us and those in the wild.
8. According to the passage, what can we learn about World Animal Day
A. It falls on December 4 every year. B. It works to protect animals.
C. It started over 100 years ago. D. It is only celebrated in Italy.
9. Why are Asian elephants in danger
A. People hunt them for their ivory tusks.
B. They can only live in Yunnan Province.
C. They have difficulty living in the wild.
D. Farmers hurt them because they eat crops.
10. What does the Chinese government do to protect Asian elephants
A. Ask farmers not to harvest crops.
B. Provide food and shelter for them.
C. Let people work together to protect them.
D. Make rules for building separation facilities.
11. What can we infer from the last paragraph of the passage
A. World Animal Day is the only day we should care about animals.
B. Protecting animals is the responsibility of governments only.
C. The author encourages everyone to think about how they can help protect animals.
D. All animal problems have already been solved in China.
D(2024宿迁泗洪期末)
The “April snow” is here! It's not real snow, of course—it's catkins(飞絮) from willows and poplars(杨树) in spring. For some people, this “snow” is not welcomed. Catkins can cause allergies(过敏), making people's noses, eyes, and skin uncomfortable.
In spring, female(雌性的) trees grow lots of flowers. When these flowers finish growing, they bear cotton(结出棉花)—like seeds that spread through the air.
Luckily, scientists have found many ways to control catkins. Doing “gender change surgery” on willows and poplars is one of them. People cut off the branches of female trees and replace(代替) them with branches from male(雄性的) trees. This cuts down the number of catkins. However, this way is slow and expensive. A skilled worker can do the “surgery” on less than ten trees a day. Scientists in Wuxi, Jiangsu, use special injections(注射剂) to reduce the number of catkins on trees. These injections make the trees mainly use their energy to grow bigger and get more leaves, not to reproduce(繁殖) and make catkins. Xu Qinming, an expert in Wuxi, told Science and Technology Daily that this method is safe for the trees. However, the trees need to get injections every year to keep the catkin number under control.
Besides injections, the trees can take “medicine”. The medicine can be sprayed(喷洒) onto the trees before the catkins form, which can quickly reduce catkin numbers. Still, people need to be careful about how much of the medicine they use and when they use it, or they might hurt the environment.
12. According to the passage, ________ can cause some people feel uncomfortable.
A. the snow in winter B. branches from male trees
C. special injections　 D. catkins from willows and poplars
13. How many ways are mentioned to deal with catkins in this passage
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.
14. What's the disadvantage(缺点) of using injections according to the passage
A. It costs a great deal of money.
B. Trees need to be injected every year.
C. It needs many skilled workers to do it.
D. It's safe for the trees and environment.
15. What's the main idea of the passage
A. How to control catkins with new technology.
B. How to make the trees grow healthily.
C. How to tell male and female willows.
D. How to protect the environment.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
__16__ The answer for most people would be yes. But where does our rubbish go
It doesn't just sit in the rubbish bin. Every day, workers come to take the rubbish from our rubbish bins. They put it into a big truck and carry it to landfills. At the landfill, people sort(分类) the rubbish. They recycle some, burn some and bury(埋) some of it underground. __17__ It means that less rubbish ends up in landfills. Landfills can also be bad for the environment.
So many Chinese cities encourage everyone to sort out their rubbish before throwing it away. Put the food in one bag. Put the plastic bottles in another. And throw them in the right rubbish bins. In this way, we can help save a lot of time, money and energy for all of society.
__18__ So they have higher recycling rates(比率). In Sweden, only 4 percent of household waste ends up in landfills every year. In Japan, people recycle nearly 50 percent of all rubbish.
There is still a lot to do when it comes to rubbish sorting in China. People in the country make about 300 million tons of rubbish every year. __19__ The rest of it ends up in landfills. Most of it is unsorted. The good news is that many cities are trying different ways to make things better. Beijing will start a new program to improve rubbish sorting next year. If people sort out their rubbish, they'll get WeChat bonus points. __20__
A. But they only recycle less than a quarter of the waste.

After fighting with sand for 60 years, Chinese people are going to change the Maowusu Desert(毛乌素沙漠) into a grassland.
The Maowusu Desert is at the border(边界) of Shaanxi and Inner Mongolia. It is one of the four big areas of sand in China. However, the Maowusu Desert was once a beautiful grassland in the 5th century. The grass died away because of too much farming.
The Maowusu Desert brought many problems. Yulin City of Shaanxi moved for three times to hide from sandstorms. Besides, the Yellow River carried sand away when passing that area, making it a real “yellow” river. And the worst of all, people went hungry for short of food and suffered from diseases caused by sandstorms.
In 1959, people took action to fight against the sand. Later the Three North Shelterbelt Forest Program(三北防护林工程) began. People wanted to make the Maowusu Desert alive again. And over sixty years later, their dream comes true. A quarter of the desert is covered with forests and grass, and 80 per cent of the sand has been under control. Soil erosion(水土流失) is stopped, saving 400 million tons of sand from entering the Yellow River every year. And Yulin has got over 1，000 square kilometres of new farmland to grow crops.
It is believed that someday the Maowusu Desert won't be a desert any more, and people living there are sure to lead a happier life.
1. When was the Maowusu Desert once a grassland
______________________________________________________________________
2. In which year did people start to fight against the sand in Maowusu

3. Did Yulin city move because of sandstorms How many times

Dear_friends，
As_we_all_know,_our_environment_is_getting_worse_and_worse._It's_time_for_us_to_go_green._Here_are_some_simple_steps_to_take.
First, whenever possible, we should take public transportation, walk or ride our bikes to school to reduce the amount of carbon emissions from cars. Second, we should take a shorter shower and turn off the lights and electronic devices when they are not in use. It is not advisable to leave the water running and the lights always on. Third, we should sort our rubbish and recycle plastic, paper and use fewer plastic bags to reduce pollution. We'd better not mix different wastes.
Small changes in our daily lives can make a big difference to the environment. Let's work together to create a cleaner, greener, and more beautiful world for ourselves.
Yours，
Nancy
