Keep the House Warm or Cool Choose Energy-saving Electronic Devices
Make sure your house is well-sealed (密封良好的), so air can’t get in or out easily. This helps you use less energy for heating in winter and cooling in summer. When buying electronic devices, pick the ones with energy-saving labels (标识). They use less electricity.

B
The materials of a product are usually our first focus. What is it made of Are there any harmful chemicals in it Green products are made of more natural materials which are free from harmful chemicals, so they can be good for our physical health.
Packaging(包装) is important. How is a product packaged Is it over-packaged We’d better choose glass, metal and paper packaging, as these can be reused or more easily recycled. We can also look for less packaging or even choose unpackaged products whenever possible.
The location(地点) matters. Where is a product made Where do we buy it Think about the energy used to transport it. So try to choose local products. When it comes to food, it is a good idea to order directly from local farmers, shop at markets and buy fruit in season. Buying from stores near our houses is also a good choice because we can go there without driving a car.
Look into what the company tells us about their products. It’s easy to say that a product is “green” or “all natural”, but the words may be too good to be true. So, much of the information about a product should be taken with a grain of salt. After all, companies try to make us believe that their products are environmentally friendly.
__▲__ Things like food and clothing are necessary for life. But many others are not. It’s better to leave an unnecessary product on the shelf than to buy it. It sends a message to the producer, keeps money in our pockets, reduces waste and keeps the planet green.
4. When we go shopping in the supermarket, we should buy products with green packaging, such as ______.
①a glass of honey
②a plastic bag of chips
③an over-packaged gift
④a box of chocolate with paper packaging
⑤fruit without packaging
A. ①②③ B. ①④⑤ C. ③④⑤ D. ①②⑤

B. To tell us how to save money for ourselves.
C. To tell us all the companies should be green.
D. To give advice on how to be a green customer.
C
I was now in my twenty-seventh year on the island. One evening, Friday went out to look for food. But soon he was back, and he looked very afraid.
“Master! Master!” he cried. “There’s a great ship near the island, and men are coming to the shore in a boat!”
I jumped up and ran with him down to the shore. I saw that it was an English ship! But why was it here English ships never came this way. Perhaps they were pirates(海盗)! “Don’t let them see you, Friday!” I called. “We’ll hide in the trees and watch.”
There were eleven men in the boat, but three of them were prisoners(囚犯). Their arms were tied with rope, but their legs were free and they could walk. The other sailors pushed the three prisoners up the beach, laughing and shouting and hitting them. The three prisoners walked slowly along the beach and sat down under a tree, not far from us. They looked very unhappy.
Very quietly, I came up behind them through the trees, and called out to them in English.
“Don’t be afraid,” I said. “I’m an Englishman. Perhaps I can help you.”
The three men turned and looked at me. They did not answer at once. They were too surprised.
Perhaps they thought I was a wild man myself, in my strange clothes made of animals’ skins, and with my long hair and beard.
Then the oldest man spoke, “I am the captain of that ship, and these two men are my first and second officers. Last night, there was a mutiny(叛乱), and the seamen took the ship from me. Now they’re going to leave the three of us here, to die on this island.”
“Do these mutineers(反叛者) have guns ”
“Only two,” he answered. “And they’ve left those on the boat.”
“All right,” I said. “We’ll fight them. But if we get your ship back for you, you must take me back to England.”
Friday ran back to my house to get all the guns, and the captain and I made a plan.
—Adapted from Robinson Crusoe

d. The mutineers took the ship from the three prisoners.
A. b-a-c-d B. b-c-a-d C. d-b-a-c D. d-a-b-c
10. What can we learn from the prisoners’ reaction to the writer’s words
A. They had expected to meet someone on the island.
B. They believed the writer was helpful at once.
C. They were too shocked to believe what they heard and saw.
D. They thought the writer was one of the mutineers in disguise.

B) 补全短文
Earth Day, which falls on 22 April, is a day to call on more people to protect the natural world. The theme “Planet(行星) VS Plastic” last year is especially important because plastic is harming our environment in many ways. Plastic doesn’t break down easily. This means it can stay in the environment for a very long time, hurting animals and plants. To fight against plastic pollution, we all need to do something.
Governments can make rules to limit the use of plastic and encourage people to recycle. Businesses should find ways to use less plastic or use recyclable plastic instead. International cooperation(合作) is of great importance, as many environmental problems need worldwide support. __12__
Schools can help too. __13__ By taking part in activities like zero-waste events at school, we will be more likely to make proper choices in our daily lives. We can also share what we know with our friends and family members.
__14__ We are advised to use reusable shopping bags and glass bottles instead of plastic ones. It’s a good idea to try to buy something without a lot of plastic packaging. Even small changes in our daily habits can be helpful.
Earth Day is a perfect chance to have our voice heard. __15__ Let’s work together towards a greener planet.
A. We students can make a difference.
B. We can help support last year’s theme by saying yes.

Before 1970, few laws protected the environment. Then on 22 April that year, Earth Day was created to celebrate our planet, tell people about environmental problems, and encourage them to take action. Now Earth Day is celebrated all over the world. We still face many challenges, such as climate(气候) change, plastic pollution, and deforestation(毁林). But we can make a difference. Here is an earth-helping hero.
Adeline Tiffanie Suwana was twelve when her home flooded. Indonesia, her island nation in South-east Asia, is often hit hard by floods and other natural disasters.
Adeline wanted to help. Studying the problem, she learned that mangrove trees play an important role in flood protection. Their big, tangled(缠结的) roots slow floodwaters and keep soil from washing away. But the trees were being cut down.
Adeline gathered her classmates to plant 200 young mangrove trees during a school break. They started a group called Friends of Nature, which works to keep the area’s biodiversity(生物多样性), fight against climate change, and help people realize the importance of the environment. They even started a project to get clean energy to remote villages.
Today, Adeline attends college, studying how businesses can help the environment.
Remember: Every one of us can be a hero for the environment!
