24、   When your pen is broken, the battery in your toy runs out, or you have some leftover food, what do you do with these things? You will probably throw them all into one bin（垃圾箱）. But actually, all kinds of rubbish need to be sorted（分类）separately.

Garbage sorting is a big issue worldwide. In recent years, some Chinese cities have been working. hand on it Shanghai has worked with Alipay to create a “green account（账户）” service for its residents（居民）. Account holders get points by sorting their rubbish correctly. Through the Alipay app, they ran exchange the points for milk, phone cards and other products. The city is asking all of its residents to sort their rubbish into four groups: wet, recyclable（可回收的）, harmful and dry.

Wet waste is also known as household waste. "They are things you don't want but that pigs can eat," Guangzhou Daily explained.

Paper, metal（金属）glass and other things that can be reused are recyclable waste.

Harmful waste includes things like medicine, batteries and fluorescent bulbs（荧光灯灯泡）

Finally, any waste that's not wet, recyclable or harmful will go in the "dry waste" bin.

Many other Chinese cities are also using this method to sort their garbage. For example, Shenzhen has been sorting its garbage into the same four groups since 2012. Students there also receive waste-sorting guidebooks that they must study.

China is improving its waste sorting efforts. There is still a long way to go. But it's never too late to learn how to sort your trash properly and protect the environment.

If you don't sort your garbage, it will go to a landfill（垃圾填埋场）and be buried together. These landfills can take up large areas of ground that could have been used for planting trees or crops. The electronic waste you throw away, such as batteries, can pollute the soil and groundwater（地下水）. Other pieces of garbage, like the metal part of a pen, can be used to make other things if they are properly recycled.

【1】How should we deal with all kinds of garbage?

A.We can throw them all into one bin. B.We can sort them separately.

C.We can throw them away freely. D.We can reuse them all. .

【2】How is Shanghai encouraging people to sort their garbage?

A.Batteries. B.Glasses C.Leftover food. D.Medicine.

C.There is still a lot of work to be done in this area.

25、   Recently, the decision to include eyesight as part of high school entrance exam has caused a heated discussion. Students in the city of Changzhi, Shanxi province will be tested on their "physical health", including eyesight. Those who fail to meet the requirement of "normal" eyesight will not get the full five points in their high school entrance exam, which decides if students can get accepted by the high school of their choice.

"In recent years, I have noticed that the No.1 problem that needs attention is poor eyesight. What makes this so terrible is that these students don't wear glasses. They even hate to say they have this problem, because they seem greatly ashamed. But how can you learn if you can't see well?" says Alexander, an American teacher in China.

However, not everyone holds the same view. Some believe that environmental problems can influence the eyesight. Eye illnesses, accidental injury（受伤）and improper use of eyes can also cause poor eyesight. Each of these should be considered before making this decision. It seems unfair, not well considered and may fail to reach the goal.

Here is what I think. First, why some students have shortsightedness is that their parents have it. Second, some being shortsighted is most probably a result of hard work. If those who work hard get lower scores than those who do not, tell me where fairness is? Third, rich families can afford expensive treatment of shortsightedness while common family cannot. I just feel so sad for students nowadays, for they are already under such heavy stress from the competitive environment.

【1】Which of the following is not true according to the passage?

A.All Chinese students will be tested on "physical health", including eyesight.

B.Some students don't like wearing glasses because they feel ashamed.

C.Some people hold the view that it's not fair to include eyesight in high school entrance exam.

D.Shortsightedness can be passed down to children by their parents.

【2】According to the passage, we can see that the writer might _______________ the decision to include the eyesight test in high school entrance exam.

A.be for B.not care about C.be against D.be pleased with

【3】The sentence "Yet they still have to pay for such a policy（政策）" should be put at the end of _________________.

A.Paragraph 1 B.Paragraph 2 C.Paragraph 3 D.Paragraph 4

【4】The best title of this passage is ________________

A.Eyesight test has become more important in high school entrance exam.

B.It's a great idea to include eyesight in high school entrance exam.

C.Should eyesight be included in high school entrance exam?

D.Patents warmly welcome the decision to include eyesight in high school entrance exam.

26、   Bananas are the perfect snack. Not only they are sweet and delicious, but they are easy to carry around, so you can take them anywhere. Best of all, bananas provide different things that the human body needs!

Bananas grow best in warm places that get lots of rain. They grow on plants that look like trees .The banana plant, however, is considered a herb rather than a tree because it doesn't have a strong, woody stem. The plants can grow as high as 30 feet. When they reach their full height, flowers grow out from the stem. These flowers produce bananas.

Two or three times each year, the plants produce fruit. The bananas grow together, which seem like "hands". A hand is made up of 10 to 20 bananas. Growers sometimes call bananas“fingers". Each bunch (丛)of bananas has about 15 hands, and so a whole bunch may have as many as 200 bananas and can weigh more than 100 pounds.

After about three months, the bananas are ready to be picked. At this point, they still aren't the sunny yellow color of bananas. Farmers pick them when they’re green. That's how they're shipped to stores. They turn yellow along the way and are ready to be sold.

If you love bananas, you've got a lot of company. Americans have been enjoying bananas since the first shipment arrived in the United States in 1876. Today, Americans eat more bananas than any other fruit. More bananas are sold than apples and grapes together. Every American eats over 26 pounds of bananas each year!

C.what bananas are rich in D.where bananas are taken

【2】What is the correct order in which these happen?

c. The flowers produce bananas.   d. The bananas are ready to be picked.

Cheryl’s success has made her an idol, especially among oversized teenagers. She says, “Hopefully, I can set an example to other people who feel they are far from normal and encourage them to do things that are challenging. We’re not all going to be supermodels.
