    Fresh green grass. Hundreds of colorful wild flowers. Water running into little pools. Birds making their homes in boxes. The 9, 500-square-metre Augustenborg Botanical Garden may look just like any other well-organized park but there’s a difference. It lies on the roofs(屋顶) of industrial and office buildings in the city of Malmo in Sweden.

    Green roofs are not a new invention. And now they are getting popular again. The common roofs of a modem city have endless black surfaces with no life or water. Perhaps that’s why a garden on a roof becomes such a perfect choice for more and more people.

    Green roofs are not just pretty. They also help to moderate the city temperature. The high temperatures on common roofs in the summer can make top floor flats uncomfortably hot. What is more, they play a part in making the cities hotter than the countryside around them, causing the “urban heat-island effect”. On a green roof, however, with its plants and water, temperatures change only a little, as they do in a park. This can greatly cut the costs of heating and cooling in the building below.

    Also, a green roof takes in rain water, and protects the city drainage(排水) system. ___23___ And small animals and birds can make their homes on it. Thanks to this, the city may become part of nature, rather than something completely separate from it.

    While the cost of building such a roof can still be higher, it can be cheaper in the long term as a result of energy savings. And wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to walk out into a garden high above the city’s noise and traffic, whether you're at school or in an office or just at home in a ten-floor block.

    8. With the example of Augustenborg Botanical Garden, the writer wants to explain ____.

    A. how wildlife is protected               B. what a green roof is like

    C. how to organize a good park             D. what to do with a spare roof

    9. The underlined word “moderate” in Paragraph 3 is the closest in meaning to “____”.

    A. raise            B. check               C. record              D. control

    10. Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank in Paragraph 4?

    A. A green roof is alive.                  B. A green roof stops pollution.

    C. A common roof is noisy.                 D. A common roof increases the cost.

    11. The purpose of the passage is to ____.

    A. discover the problems with green roofs  B. introduce the change of green roofs

    C. show the amazing beauty of green roofs  D. describe the advantages of green roofs

    阅读材料,然后从各题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。 

        A zero-waste life is a lifestyle that hardly creates any rubbish. So, a zero-waste store is about providing a kind of everyday and pleasant-looking zero-waste products to help people start on a zero-waste life journey.

        "Zero waste" or "danshari" was first suggested by a French woman called Bea Johnson. Her idea is: live a life and try not to create any rubbish; use different kinds of ways to save the environment such as stopping the use of one-off objects; giving unwanted things to others or giving them away to organizations like the Red Cross.

        Yu Yuan, 27, is deeply interested in this idea. She and her boyfriend have lived in Beijing for many years. And earlier she used to buy things without thinking about them carefully until she saw a video about "zero waste", in which a family of four placed the rubbish they produced every year in a jar (罐). After watching the video, Yu wanted to experience this zero-waste lifestyle with her boyfriend.

        A zero-waste life follows the 6R rule-Refuse Reduce, Reuse, Repair, Recycle and Rot. Over August-October when Yu followed the rule of zero waste 6R, she and her boyfriend Joe Harvey both produced only two cans of rubbish.

        Now, the couple have opened a small shop in Beijing, where they use wood products to take the place of plastic ones and cloth bags printed with environmentally friendly logos. Most products sold in the store can be reused. The store also has second-hand books and CDs/DVDs with, ideas to make the best of the used things.

        "Those who once experienced the non-waste lifestyle have slowly changed their ideas," says Ya, "The zero-waste lifestyle is not for ascetics (苦行僧). It is just around us at our finger-tips." Yu expects some of her friends to join her on the road to zero waste.

    8. Bea Johnson suggests that people should ________.            

    A. try to produce no rubbish in life
    B. share objects with others
    C. help their friends live comfortably
    D. work hard for the Red Cross

    9. We can see from the passage that Yu Yuan ________.           

    A. offers plastic bags in her store
    B. is influenced by the 6R rule
    C. often buys things she doesn't need
    D. likes listening to CDs very much

    10. What Yu Yuan says in the last paragraph probably means that ________.           

    A. lots of people doubt the zero-waste lifestyle
    B. she feels it hard to continue her lifestyle
    C. her friends have followed her lifestyle
    D. the zero-waste lifestyle is not difficult to live

    11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?           

    A. Opening up a second-hand store
    B. Recycling waste
    C. Saving the environment
    D. Joining the couple

    The world has a plastics problem. And not just with bottles. Straws(吸管) toothbrushes toys—all kinds of plastics are placed in landfills. There are 5 billion tons of plastic waste in the world. Landfills have a large part of it. By 2050 they could have 13 billion tons.

    Much of plastic rubbish finds its way into the ocean. Scientists say 165 million tons of plastic pieces are floating around out there. And most plastic won’t disappear itself. It will remain in the ocean forever. Whales get caught in plastic fishing nets. Birds die because of eating plastic straws and bottle caps. It endangers ocean life. Plastic rubbish even ends up in the food we eat.

    Governments are realizing that recycling may not be enough. They are taking more actions. Though it is hard work it is still a solvable problem. In Britain people are not allowed to use plastic bags except in hospitals. Scotland and several coastal cities in the US stop people from using plastic straws as well. The US alone throws away some 500 million plastic straws a day. That's enough to circle the Earth twice. “Saying no to a plastic straw is an easy way to make a big difference” Dana Lofflin who startedwww.strawfree.org said. “Do we really want to pass on to our children a world harmed by plastic?”

    People have found some tasty ways to reduce waste. A company in India made the first-ever spoon that people can eat. You don’t have to eat the spoon. You can throw it away. It decomposes(分解) in just a few days. David Edwardsa scientist at Harvard University designed an eatable bag which can protect the food or drink inside. It is a delicious replacement for plastic ones.

    8. According to the write birds die because they _______.

    A. eat bottle caps and straws

    B. get caught in fishing nets

    C. feed on ocean animals

    D. have the spoons in India

    9. The underlined word "endangers" in Paragraph 2 probably means _______.

    A. brings           B. loses               C. harms               D. saves

    10. The purpose of the passage is mainly to _______.

    A. introduce some ways to recycle waste

    B. tell readers about the problem with plastics

    C. compare air pollution and plastic pollution

    D. describe how the US is reducing plastic waste

    11. From the passage we can tell that the plastics problem _______.

    A. is too big for people to solve          B. can be solved by recycling alone

    C. can be solved but it won’t be easy   D. will have to be solved by future scientists

    In China, each year we produce about 150 million tons of city waste according to a report. Where does the waste go? People usually burn or bury()it. On the other hand, we receive waste from some developed countries. We get useful materials from it. What about the useless part? Still burned

    or buried. But is it a proper way?

    Waste pollutes the environment, harms people's health and causes animals to die. It also gets in the way of green and sustainable development. We can't make money at the cost of the environment.

    We should leave clean water and green mountains to our next generations(一代人).

    China is getting really serious about waste now.

    We are taking less waste from developed countries. From January 2018, China started to stop 24 kinds of waste coming into our country. And more laws and rules about dealing with waste have been made. Anyone who breaks the law will be punished.

    China also tries to put waste into good use. One example is the waste electricity factories. They burn waste to make electricity in a green way. No harmful gases or water will get into the environment.

    The Chinese government is encouraging people to do waste sorting(分类). Cities like Shanghai,

    Chongqing and Beijing have their own sorting systems. More will join them soon. As President Xi Jinping said during a visit to Shanghai, waste sorting is a new fashion(时尚). More and more people are forming the habit of separating their waste.

    52. The writer starts the passage by _______________.

    A. telling stories                                        B. comparing numbers

    C. raising questions                                   D. giving suggestions

    53. The underlined word "sustainable" in Paragraph 2 means "__________"in Chinese.

    A. 可享受的                B. 可持续的                C. 可借鉴的                D. 可复活的

    54. From the passage, we know that ____________________.

    A. waste does harm only to the environment

    B. those who break the law may not be punished

    C. China stops getting waste from developed countries

    D. waste sorting starts to become popular in China

    55. The structure of the passage may be.

    In the future, people may travel to Mars (火星) by water-powered spaceship! Today's spaceships are fine for getting things into space, but they are not so good at travelling long distances. These spaceships burn chemical fuels (燃料) and they are very expensive. Scientists say that a water-powered spaceship could make the trip to Mars much cheaper. The idea is just in the planning stages now, but scientists think such a spaceship could be developed soon.

    The key to the water-powered spaceship is the engine (发动机) Regular engines push spaceships by burning fuel. The water engine will use steam, created by solar panels (太阳能板) that heat water to a high temperature. Of course, the spaceship will have to carry a lot of water for the long trip to Mars.

    Today's spaceships could not cay that much water But scientists think that a spaceship blown up like a balloon will be able to

    One US company has already developed a spaceship like this. These spaceships are made of a strong material. Two of them have already been sent up into space, using rockets and then later filled with air. "Balloon" spaceships could be very large and carry enough water for a long trip. With the "Balloon" spaceships, enough water could be carried to power the engines and grow food during the trip. And the people on the spaceship might even get to take a hot bath!

    Scientists say the biggest advantage of such a spaceship would be cost. The "Balloon" spaceship uses water to push it through space and costs about one thirtieth of a normal spaceship. Such savings naturally encourage continued research into balloon spaceships and water engines. If these scientists are correct, we may soon be on our way to Mars in a spaceship powered by water.

    32. Which sentence best describes the main idea of the passage above?

    A. The key to the water-powered spaceship is the engine.

    B. In the future, people may travel to Mars by water-powered spaceship.

    C. One US company has already developed a spaceship like this.

    D Scientists say the biggest advantage of such a spaceship would be cost.

    33What do you think is omitted (省略) at the end of the underlined sentence?

    A. use steam                                           B. push spaceships

    C. heat water                                            D. carry that much water

    34. Besides growing food, what else might astronauts do with the rest of the water?

    A. Take a hot bath.                                   B. Freeze dangerous things.

    C. Blow up a balloon.                               D. Change the surface of Mars.            

    35. On which website can we probably read this passage?

    A. www. freedictionary. com/power            B. www. mooc. cn/music

    C. www. chinadaily. com. cn/culture           D. www. space. com/spaceflight

    Animals are our friends. Sometimes they make trouble, but sometimes they can help us. And they hope to live a happy life, too. Here are two real stories from our readers.

    The first story is from Ray. "My cat, Tiger, hates it when I use my iPad because it takes my attention away from him. One year, I had a fall at home and was on the floor for 16 hours. During this time, I was unable to move and couldn't get to the phone to call for help. Tiger stayed by my side until he disappeared under my bed. 'What's he pup to?' I wondered. To my surprise, he started to push something towards me. It was my iPad, which I didn't realize had fallen off the bed and onto the floor. He probably didn't know what it was, but he knew that it made me happy. Thanks to Tiger, I was able to communicate with my friend, Becky, who then told my doctor. "

    The second story is from Colin. "Years ago, my friend Julius saved a bird—a wild 'Mom' cockatoo(鹦鹉)from the side of the road and kept it as a pet in a big cage(笼子). It lost one of her wings, so she was unable to return to the wild. Soon, two wild cockatoos came visiting and one 'Dad' bird wanted to find his way into the cage. The 'Mom' cockatoo in the cage was soon expecting. But as she couldn't fly, 'Dad' cockatoo built a home in the tree, keeping off everyone who got close to 'Mom' cockatoo. 'Baby' cockatoo would spend his days flying off with his dad, leaving his mom behind. She would sit and wait until they returned home each afternoon. The family stayed together happily. "

    After reading the stories, don’t you think we should get along well with animals? No matter they are our pets or live in the wild, they have their feelings. We should respect every life in the world.

    46. ____________ is the owner of the cat.

    A. Becky                      B. Julius                      C. Colin                       D. Ray

    A Julius caught it as a pet                                  B. she vas badly hurt and couldn't fly

    C. she preferred the life in the cage                    D. "Dad" cockatoo built a home in the tree

    49. The main idea of the passage is that _____________.

    A. Ray, Becky and Colin are animal lovers          B. we shouldn't use iPad too much

    C. friends should help each other                       D. we should respect every life in the world

    2019 • 山东东营】

    What’s a spacewalk? Any time an astronaut gets out of a spacecraft(航天器) while in space, it is called a spacewalk. Astronauts go on spacewalks for many reasons. For example, experiments can be placed on the outside of a spacecraft. This lets scientists learn how being in space affects( 影响) different things. By going on spacewalks, astronauts can also fix things instead of bringing them back to the earth to fix.

    When astronauts go on spacewalks, they wear spacesuits to keep themselves safe. Inside spacesuits, astronauts have the oxygen(氧气) they need to breathe and the water they need to drink. To keep the astronauts and the spacecraft safe, the astronauts must leave and go back to the spacecraft through a special door. When on a spacewalk, astronauts use safety tethers to stay close to their spacecraft. Tethers are like ropes, connect the spacewalkers with the spacecraft. They keep astronauts from floating( 漂 浮 ) away into space. Another way astronauts stay safe during spacewalks is by wearing a SAFER. SAFER is worn like a backpack. It helps an astronaut move around in space.

    How do astronauts train for spacewalks? One way is by going for a swim. Floating in space is a lot like floating in water. Astronauts practice spacewalks underwater in a huge special swimming pool. For every one hour they will spend on a spacewalk, astronauts need to train seven hours in the pool. Another way astronauts practice for a spacewalk is by using virtual reality(虚拟现实). It looks and feels just like a spacewalk.

    Today, only three countries have finished spacewalks independently. They are Russia, the United States and China. The first person to go on a spacewalk in the world was Alexei Leonov from Russia. Zhai Zhigang is the first Chinese astronaut to go on a spacewalk. The world record of spacewalks is held by Russian astronaut Anatoly Solovyev.

    2019 • 山东泰安】

    Earlier this year, China achieved a new milestone (里程碑) in space research. On January 3, 2019, Chang'e-4 became the first lunar probe (月球探测器) in history to successfully land on the far side of the moon.

    The Earth's gravity (重力) slows the moon's rotation (自转), matching it to the speed of its orbit (公转). Therefore, the far side of the moon is almost "dark" and has never been seen. It's this sense of the unknown that makes the far side of the moon such an interesting place for scientific and space research. Being blown by solar (太阳的) winds, the far side may have the special minerals (矿物质 ).  For this reason, Chang'e-4 will study the effect of solar winds on the lunar surface and any mineral found by the spacecraft. Chang'e-4 is also carrying flower seeds, potatoes and silkworm eggs to see whether life is possible on the moon. If it is, then the moon will become a possible choice for space travel in the future.

    However, research of the "dark" side isn't easy. As the far side is blocked(阻断) off from us, radio noise coming off Earth is also blocked. This is why China's relay satellite (中继卫星) Queqiao was sent up in May, 2018. Thanks to Queqiao, the communication problem between

    Earth and Chang'e-4 has been well solved.

    Power supply (电源供应) is also a challenge to the task. Chang'e-4 gets energy from the sun through its solar panels. As we know, a lunar day has the length (长度) of 28 Earth days. After Chang'e-4 was sent up on December 8, 2018, it took the probe over 20 days to orbit the moon to be in a position to be able to land in moon daylight and use its solar panels.

    Luckily, everything goes well, Chang'e-4 has worked on the "dark" side for over 5 months. It has sent back many photos of the far side of the moon and has been used to carry out some scientific experiments.

    The New York Times used the word "groundbreaking" to praise the task and wrote that "it will offer help to the history and development of the moon".

    26. When was Chang'e-4 sent up?

    A. In May, 2018.                              B. On December 8, 2018.

    C. On January 3, 2019.                        D. The passage doesn't tell us.

    27. The main tasks of Chang'e-4 don't include ___________________.

    A. studying if life is possible on the moon

    B. studying the effect of solar winds on the lunar surface

    C. solving the communication problem between Earth and other probes

    D. researching any mineral found by the spacecraft

    28. The meaning of the underlined word "groundbreaking" in the last paragraph is the closest to

    "________________".

    A. harmful             B. unpredictable       C. risky               D. pioneering

    We know people can be nice, but what about animals?

    Scientists say that some animals are capable(有能力的)of being nice. Animals that live in groups-like foxes, chimpanzees(大猩猩), and elephants-follow rules. They have to follow rules to get along and to survive(生存). However, animals can act nicely, even when they don't have to. Here are some surprising stories about animal behavior.

    Most people usually walk away when someone is unkind to them. Marc Bekoff, a researcher at the University of Colorado, saw a female(母的)red fox do just that. The female fox was unhappy because a male(公的)fox played roughly(粗鲁地)with her. When she walked away, the male fox showed her that he wanted to play nicely. He lowered his head and rolled on his back. The female fox gave him another chance, and this time, he played more gently.

    Geza Teleki is a scientist who studies chimpanzees in Tanzania. One day, Teleki hiked far away from his campsite. He didn't have any food. Teleki wanted some fruit from a tree, but the tree was too tall. A young chimpanzee watched him curiously as he tried to get something to eat. The chimpanzee climbed the tree, picked the fruit, and gave it to him!

    An elephant in Kenya hurt his trunk(象鼻子). He needed help because he couldn't put food into his mouth. Researcher Kayhan Ostovar watched silently. He saw the hurt elephant show his sore trunk to a healthy elephant. The healthy elephant didn't need any more information. He took a bush and put it carefully into his new friend's mouth.

    Hippos(河马)and crocodiles are usually good friends. They hang out together in rivers. But Karen Paolillo, a wildlife expert in Zimbabwe, saw something surprising. One day, a crocodile tried to eat a monkey that was next to a river. A hippo ran quickly to the crocodile and chased it away. Why did the hippo attack(攻击)the crocodile? Paolillo says hippos sometimes protect other animals from crocodiles.

    41. The main idea of the passage is        .

    A. animals that live in groups follow rules

    B. some animals can be nice to other animals

    C. most animals are nice to people

    42. The underlined phrase “do just that” means        .

    A. be nice                     B. play roughly                C. walk away

    43. We can say that Teleki        .

    A. is short                    B. hates hiking                C. could not climb the tree

    44. The elephant needed help because ____.

    A. the tree was too tall       B. it could not use its trunk  C. it had no food

    45. The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to ____.

    A. the crocodile               B. the chimpanzee              C. the monkey

    There are a lot of interesting things living in the sea. There are many types of fish and many other animals. There are also many types of plants. There are even some animals which have a lot in common with you. They are mammals living in the sea. How much do you know about creatures that live in the sea? Do you want to know more about the food chain(链)in the sea?

    In the sea, all sea creatures get food from other sea creatures. At the first link of the food chain are the sea plants and plankton (浮游生物). Plants are found only in the sunlight zone where there is enough light for them, however, animals are found at all depths of the oceans though their numbers are greater near the surface where food is enough. Many kinds of fish and animals, such as the snail, shrimp, jellyfish, and sea star eat the plankton. The small animals and fish that eat plankton then become food for larger fish, such as the tuna and mackerel. These fish are then eaten by larger fish and animals, such as the shark and dolphin. The shark and dolphin are at the top of the food chain in the sea. Sharks are very dangerous so many people are eaten by them in the sea. But why the number of the shark is becoming smaller and smaller? And who eats the shark? Check out the menu at a seafood restaurant next time you are eating there. Don't be surprised if you find shark on the menu.

    Have you seen Avatar(《阿凡达》)? It’s a popular 3D movie, and you may have to wear 3D glasses to see it. The 3D glasses make the images(图像)from the movie look as if they were coming straight towards you.  

     More and more 3D movies are coming to theaters. Some say that 3D TV sets will come into our homes in the near future. 3D technology can make TV and movies are more exciting. However, people with eye problems may get headaches if they spend too much time watching 3D movies. Why?
        When we look at an object(
    物体), each eye sees it at a different angle(角度). Our eyes send the two images to our brain(大脑), and the brain puts them together. 3D technology uses two film projectors(投影机). One projects a left-eye-image and the other projects a right-eye-image. 3D glasses allow us to see a different image in each eye. So, when we are watching a 3D movie, our brain can’t put together the images sent to our eyes. The brain needs to work harder at “reading” the images. That makes it easier for people with eye problems to get dizzy(头晕的) or have headaches. A famous eye doctor said if your eyes can’t focus(聚焦) on the same object at once, you will have trouble watching 3D movies.

    根据短文内容,选择正确答案。

    If you watch the sky for about an hour after the sun goes down, you may see some “moving stars”. But they’re not real stars. They’re man-made satellites(人造卫星). And the biggest of all is the International Space Station (ISS). From May to July is the best season to watch the ISS flying over the earth. And people can see it with their eyes.
        The ISS is the biggest satellite and scientists want to live on it. They think that the best way to learn more about space is to live there.
        When the space station is finished, it will be like a city in space. People will stay and study there with many of the things they have at home. Laboratories, living rooms and power stations are being built. The ISS is the most expensive space program. Billions of dollars are being spent on it every year. 
        Scientists hope that the ISS will be a stepping stone for future space exploration(
    探测). “The ISS will help us understand the human body better, explore space and study the earth. It can help us make life on the earth better,” said Kathryn Clark, an ISS scientist. 
        Sixteen countries are part of the program: the US, Russia, Canada, Japan, Brazil and 11 European countries. China isn’t an ISS country, but it has helped with some of the experiments. In 2003, China sent some rice up to the ISS to find out what space would do to it.

    (    )1.The International Space Station_____________.                              

            A. is really a big city in space              B. is the biggest man-made satellite

    At present, too much carbon dioxide(二氧化碳) makes the earth warmer and warmer and causes terrible effect to human beings. To save our planet, to save ourselves, a new lifestyle called low-carbon life(低碳生活) becomes popular. Low carbon means low energy and no waste. It is necessary for everybody to learn to live a low-carbon life.

    To live a low-carbon life, we’d better save energy as possible. Turn off the lights and TV whenever they are not needed. If possible, use cold water to wash clothes or dishes. Take a short shower and try to take a cold one when the weather gets warm. Don’t do the cooking with electricity.

    To live a low-carbon life, we should eat less meat. Everybody knows eating too much meat makes people fat and easy to have heart disease, but maybe you don’t know keeping animals for food produces even more carbon dioxide than all the cars in the world, and being a vegetarian can help reduce one and a half tons of carbon dioxide a year. Maybe it is a little difficult, but it’s really necessary.

    To live a low-carbon life, we are supposed to do less shopping. When we go shopping, we may drive a car or take other transportations. On the one hand, these machines pollute the air and waste energy. On the other hand, most of us always buy some useless things because of some advertisements. It is not only a waste of money but also causes trouble to the earth, because as you know, making everything will produce carbon dioxide more or less.

    There are many other ways to live low-carbon life, such as recycling things, planting trees and reusing textbooks. If we can keep it a habit in our daily life, the earth will become a safer planet for us to live on.

    根据短文内容,选择正确答案。

    (   )1._____ makes the weather on the earth get warmer.

    阅读短文,掌握其大意,从每题所给的 ABCD 四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

    Now satellites are helping to forecast(预报)the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere(大气), because this is where the weather forms(形成). They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists(气象学家)can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.

    Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare(比较)them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.

    So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead(提前).

    1. Satellites travel _____________.

    A. in space                               B. in the atmosphere

    C. above the ground                   D. above space

    2. Why do we use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere? Because __________.

    A. the weather satellites can do it easily             B. clouds form there

    C. the weather forms there                        D. the pictures can forecast the weather

    3. Meteorologists forecast the weather __________.

    A. when they have received satellite pictures

    B. after they have compared new satellite pictures with earlier ones

    C. before they received satellite pictures

    D. during they study satellite pictures

    4. Maybe we’ll soon be able to forecast the weather for ________.

    A. one day                              B. two days

    C. five days                            D. seven days or even longer

    5. The main(主要的)idea of this passage is that satellites are now used in _________.

    A. taking pictures of the atmosphere             B. receiving pictures of the atmosphere

    C. doing other work in many ways              D. weather forecasting
