1、   If you are in Shanghai and want to throw away a cup of milk tea, be careful.1. From July.1st on, people in Shanghai have been required to sort garbage according to strict rules. Many other cities in China are planning to create similar garbage-sorting rules.

Why should we sort our garbage? 2. The answer lies in the increasing waste we are producing. Chinese cities produce over 200 million tons of waste each year, according to China Economic Net. Most of this waste is buried in landfills (垃圾填埋场), which may pollute water and soil. Moreover, we are running out of space for new landfills.

3 事实上，超过一半的废弃物可以被回收利用。Recyclable garbage can be made into new materials, while wet garbage can be used to make gas, heat and fertilizer (肥料). But in order to recycle efficiently, we need to sort our garbage.

Can't garbage-processing companies do the sorting job for us? They can.4. 但是这需要大量的工作并且花费大量金钱。5. Things will become much easier if each of us can sort our own garbage. Besides, the troublesome task of sorting might encourage people to produce less waste.

24、   World Book Day has arrived! It is celebrated on April 23 in most countries, but in the UK, it is usually in March. This year, our school invited a writer to talk to us about her life as an author. 

The author’s name is Jo Cotterill. She is an English author who lives in Oxfordshire with her husband and daughters. She has won many awards for writing books for children and teenagers. 

In her speech, Cotterill told us a lot about her childhood, as well as her love for unicorns (独角兽), her previous job as an actress and, of course, her books.  She also showed us some of her award-winning books and described their plots (情节) for us. I was fascinated by her book A Library of Lemons. It is a story about a girl, Calypso, whose father stops believing in friendship and love after his wife dies. All he believes in are books – he teaches his daughter to close her heart and only love books as well. 

As you can see from the book’s title, Cotterill likes to play with words and invent new titles for her books. In fact, her writing career started with inventive (别出心裁的) titles. She said that sometimes she would read in bed on a Sunday and think about interesting titles for new books. She has another book called A Storm of Strawberries. Do you think this title is creative? I simply loved Cotterill’s talk. It inspired me to take up my pen again and keep writing.

25、

March 2 is Old Stuff Day（旧物日）. It is all about old stuff—things that you used and have been forgotten for ages in your home. You must have some old stuff around. And today is all about enjoying it. Because what’s better than finding something really great from days gone by?

It’s so easy to forget things you have. If we don’t use them every day, some things can be put away and stay there. And that’s not just the things in your home—technology grows so quickly, new toys come out all the time, new books keep coming out. In the age of new information, we can have so many things easily. Today is all about remembering the things we sometimes leave behind.

We’ve learned to value what age can bring to things. Wines, for example, are more valuable and tastier as they grow older. It’s certain that old things still have their uses, value or charm（魅力）. People today will pay a pretty penny for stamps, toys, video games, board games, books, coins, and clothes of yesterday.

You can really get into the charm of old things by visiting a junk shop （旧货店）. Another person’s old stuff could be your new stuff! Or maybe now is a good day to clean up? Old stuff could become a great gift for someone else, or you could always send your old things to a charity shop. If you’re free, you could turn your old things like old clothes into new ones with just a little change.

Today could be a good day to visit your older families. You could ask your grandparents to tell you stories about family history, their childhood and their youth. Learn about what was going on in the world when they were growing up.

Most of all, remember that today’s new stuff will one day be old stuff.

【1】What is Old Stuff Day for?

A．It’s to tell people to stop buying.

B．It’s to throw away old things.

C．It’s to protect the traditional arts.

D．It’s to enjoy and reuse old things.

【2】What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3?

A．Old things take too much room at home.

B．Old things are still valuable and useful.

C．We may forget things that we have easily.

D．People always clean up their houses.

【3】According to the writer, which is NOT a proper way to deal with old things?

A．Turning old things into new ones.

B．Sending them to a charity shop.

C．Cutting them into small pieces.

D．Giving them to someone else as gifts.

【4】The purpose of writing this passage is to make readers ________.

A．realize the value of old things

B．find out the importance of study

C．remember family history

D．get on well with neighbors

【5】Where can we find this passage?

A．In a newspaper.

B．In a novel.

C．In a history book

D．In a magazine.

26、China is a country with many colorful days and festivals. The Dragon Head Raising Day (龙抬头) is one of them.

This special day is on the second day of the second month in the Chinese lunar calendar (农历). It is the start of spring and farming. This year, the day fell on March 8th.

The dragon is important in Chinese culture. We Chinese people call ourselves the “descend-ants (传人) of the dragon”. Therefor, people celebrate the Dragon Head Raising Day with many customs about dragons.

On the day in ancient times, people put ashes (灰) in the kitchen. This was “to lead the dragon into the house”. People believed that with the help of the dragon, they could have a good harvest (收获) in autumn.

Also, people eat special foods on that day. The foods are usually named after dragons. For example, people eat “dragon whisker (细须)” noodles and dumplings

Today many customs have been dead. But one that has remained is the cutting of hair. It was said that a haircut during the first lunar month may bring bad luck to the mother’s brothers.

根据短文内容，判断下列各句正（T）误（F）。

【1】The Dragon Head Raising Day is one of the Chinese festivals.

【2】February 2nd was the Dragon Head Raising Day this year.

【3】On the day in ancient times, people put ashes (灰) in the kitchen.

【4】One custom that has remained is to eat moon-cakes.

【5】You’d better not cut your hair before the Dragon Head Raising Day if you have uncle(s).

27、   We were a crowd of people who took the bus every day that summer three years ago. One of the passengers was a small man who took the bus to the center for the old people every morning.

One morning he had some wild flowers in his hand. They were already fading a little because of the hot weather. The driver turned around smilingly and asked, "Have you got yourself a girlfriend, Charlie?" He nodded shyly and said yes.

The other passengers whistled(吹口哨) and clapped(拍手) at him. Charlie bowed and waved the flower before he sat down on his seat.

Every morning after that Charlie always brought a flower. Some of the passengers began bringing him flowers, gently pushed him and said shyly, "Here." Everyone smiled. The men started to play jokes, and talked to each other.

The summer went by, and autumn was coming, when one morning Charlie wasn't waiting at his usual stop. When he wasn't there the next day and the day after that, we started wondering if he was sick.

"Yes," the driver said, he knew who we were talking about. "The man was fine, but he had gone to his friend's funeral. He would come back on Monday." How silent we were the rest of the way to work!

The next Monday Charlie was waiting at the stop. Even though no one had talked about it, all those of us, sat with our eyes filled with tears and some wild flowers in our hands.
