①Green is more than just a color. It also means taking special steps to protect the environment. Buying a green product is a small step everyone can take. We need to consider the whole life cycle of the product even after it’s of no use. Here is what we may keep in mind.
②The 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.

⑥Actually, the greenest thing is certainly the one we don’t buy. Better than buying is choosing to leave an unnecessary product in the store. It sends a message to the producer, keeps money in our pockets, reduces waste and keeps the planet healthy.

任务型阅读(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分，满分 10 分)
阅读下面短文，回答下列问题。
Have you ever visited Hukou Waterfall Hukou Waterfall is always compared to a shining pearl (明珠) in the middle reaches of the Yellow River.
When the Yellow River runs through mountains to Hukou, the river narrows (变窄) from 300 meters to just over 50 meters. The water suddenly falls into a deep pool. As a result, a wonderful waterfall appears. It seems that the water pours into a big pot, which is how it got the name “Hukou”.
The power of the waterfall is tremendous (巨大的) when it falls, so it is hard for you to get close to the
main waterfall. Looking from far away, you can enjoy the amazing fog-covered water. The beauty cannot be described in words. You cannot know unless you visit it in person.
There are four wonders of Hukou, “smoking in water”, “colourful bridge to the sky”, “dragons playing with waves” and “thunder generated from valley stream”. The waterfall flies straight down with water splashing (溅), clouds and mist rising. Under the sunlight, you will see a rainbow hanging over the waterfall. The poem “Chant to Hukou” written by Zhang Yingchun in the Ming Dynasty describes the beauty of “colourful bridge to the sky”.
The view of Hukou Waterfall changes according to the seasons. So you can enjoy its special beauty from spring to winter.

Protect the Earth and Love Animals
Good morning, everyone! Today I am very happy to be here to give a speech about “Protect the Earth and
Love Animals”.
The Earth is our shared home. Humans should get along well with other living things. Sadly, animals and plants are facing serious problems. First, cutting down too many trees has reduced forests. Many birds have lost homes; some wild animals are even dying out. Besides, frequent natural disasters come partly from human damage to nature.
Therefore, I suggest we take action to protect the Earth. The government should make environmental laws. We students should help more people know the importance of protection. Let’s work together for a better home for all living things.
Thank you!
