In the 13th century, the famous Italian traveler, Marco Polo, traveled a long way to China During his stay in China, he saw many wonderful things.
One of the things he discovered was that the Chinese used paper money. In western countries, people did not use paper money until the 15th century.
But people in China began to use paper money in the 7th century.
A Chinese man called Cai Lun invented paper almost 2000 years ago. How did he do it? He took wood from trees and made it into paper. He then put these pieces of paper together and made them into a book.
Now paper still comes from trees. We use a lot of paper every day. If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth. If there are no trees, there will be no paper. Every day, people throw away about 2 800 tons of paper in Beijing. It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper.
This means that we are cutting down nearly 48 000 trees every day. Since it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow, we must start using less paper now. If we don’t, we will not have enough time to grow more trees to take the place of those we use for paper.
So how can we save paper? We can use both sides of every piece of paper, especially when we are making notes. We can choose drinks in bottles instead of those in paper cups. We can also use cotton handkerchiefs, not paper ones. When we go shopping, we can use fewer paper bags. If the shop assistant does give us a paper bag, we can save it and reuse it later.
Everyone can help to save paper. If we all think carefully, we can help protect trees. But we should do it now, before it is too late.
(1) People in western countries first used paper money in the ________ century.
[
]
A .17th |
B .15th |
C .13th |
D .7th |
(2) About _______ tons of paper are thrown away every day in Beijing.
[
]
A .1700 |
B .2000 |
C .2800 |
D .48000 |
(3) Which of the following is NOT a way to save paper?
[
]A
.To use both sides of every piece of paper.B
.To use paper bags from shops more than once.C
.To use cotton handkerchiefs instead of paper ones.D

[
]A

Like schools in China, American schools begin in September after a long summer vacation. There are two terms in a school year. The first term is from September to January and the second is from February to June. Usually American children begin to go to school when they are five years old. Most students are seventeen or eighteen years old when they finish high school.
But unlike middle school students in China, high school students in America take only four or five subjects each term. They usually go to the same classes every day and have homework for every class. After class they do all kinds of interesting things.
