24、选择最佳答案

Dear Emma,

Your problem is like a circle. The harder you study, the less time you have to make friends and the less friendly you look to your classmates. The fewer friends you have, the harder you study to make yourself feel better.

Try to break this bad circle. Perhaps you are afraid of meeting new people, because you are too shy or too serious. You are not. Everyone has a fun side. Push your shy side away and show your classmates how much fun you can be.

Look at your classmates. Are there any people with whom you feel you have a lot in common?

First, smile at your classmates. Do this as often as you can, until your classmates become used to your smiles and smile in return.

Next, talk to your classmates. Do this between classes or during your lunch break. You may find it easier to start by talking to people when they are alone.

Perhaps you could ask a classmate about your studies. They are likely to respond (回应) in a very positive way. People like to feel important and helpful.

There must be someone else in your class who is also quiet. It might be easier to try to talk with him or her. Your problem is mainly about confidence. Smile first, talk next and slowly you will make friends. Once you have more confidence, you can make as many friends as you want.

25、I live in a town. In the past, the air wasn’t fresh. There was a river. People put rubbish in it. The water went bad. The fishes in the river died. There was much rubbish in the streets which weren’t wide. It smelt terrible. People lived in low old houses with trees all around and had a terrible life. The children couldn’t have many chances to go out to cities, not to say, have a good education. Farmers worked only with their hands. They worked very hard all year round. They planted crops(农作物)with the help of animals. The poor people went anywhere on foot, and only some rode bikes. Few visitors came here to spend their holidays.

At present, things have been greatly changed. People have moved into big bright houses or beautiful buildings. There is a big factory. Many people work in it. They are getting richer. Different kinds of cars and buses are running in the big streets. It is faster and easier to travel. People plant many fruit trees and get much money. People plant crops with the help of machines which can save lots of work. Students can study in a modem school. People pay more attention to the environmental protection. The mountains are becoming greener, water much cleaner. What around us is the clearer sky and greener water. As a result, many visitors come here to spend their holidays. People enjoy their modern life. But with the development of the industry, we have fewer trees. Air and water pollution is becoming more and more serious. We must do something to stop pollution to make our town more and more beautiful.

26、You might not think much about where your garbage goes. But now you might want to know. On July 1, Shanghai introduced a new garbage-sorting policy (垃圾分类政策). People there need to put different kinds of garbage into different bins (垃圾桶). Other cities in China will do the same soon.

Garbage sorting is a big problem because there is too much garbage these days. It is bad for our home—the earth. In fact, we can make use of some garbage again. But first, we need to sort it.

For example, if you put an old battery (电池) into the “ harmful waste” bin, people can use it to make new batteries. But if you don’t, the battery will end up somewhere else. Then, it will pollute the environment.

Garbage sorting and recycling around the world

Germany: There are big machines in supermarkets. You can put bottles in the machines and get money back.

Japan: A truck playing music comes to people’s doors to pick up their garbage. There are eight or more kinds of garbage. If you sort any of them wrong, you will get a notice on your door.

Indonesia: People can take buses for free if they give plastic bottles to bus stations. An-hour bus ride costs three large bottles.

Four kinds of garbage in Shanghai

Recyclable garbage includes paper, books, plastic items and glass bottles. Harmful garbage includes lamps, batteries and other things with harmful chemicals (化学品). Wet garbage usually comes from the kitchen, such as food and vegetables. Dry garbage is anything you cannot put into the other three bins, pens and towels, for example.

【1】When did Shanghai introduce the new garbage-sorting policy?

A．On June 1.

B．On June 11.

C．On July1.

D．On July11.

【2】How can we take a free bus ride in Indonesia?

A．If we get a notice on the door.

B．If we put garbage into different bins.

C．If we take plastic bottles to the bus stations.

D．If we put bottles in the machines in supermarkets.

【3】Which bin should “newspapers” go to?

A．

B．

C．

D．

【4】Which is the best title for the passage?

A．Sort Garbage, Save the Earth

B．Less Garbage, Cleaner Environment

C．Clean Shanghai, Beautiful China

D．Different Countries, Different Policies
