A dog might be man’s best friend, but my dogs are more like my kids! I think everyone should experience the unconditional love of a dog, but owning one is not for the nervousness. It’s work—especially when it comes to the job of cleaning up their waste. When you clean up after your dogs, your neighbors will love you for keeping those smelly landmines out of their yards. But there are even bigger benefits. You’ll not only be doing your part to keep bacteria out of your yard and neighborhood, you’re also keeping harmful microorganisms away from the drinking water supply.
There are more than 77 million pet dogs in the United States and their waste is found in backyards, neighborhood parks, and the green areas that frequently line small waterways. When you don’t clean up after your dog, heavy rain can carry bacteria from the waste into drains. Dog waste left in parks and other such places can be swept directly into nearby streams. This affects the quality of the water in our streams. These small channels often empty directly into our local drinking water supply or the water where we boat or fish.
Dog waste contains harmful microorganisms like roundworms that can be passed onto humans. This is why dog waste should not be used as fertilizer around your home. And it won’t fertilize your yard either if you leave it behind like other types of fertilizer. Dogs don’t eat the same kinds of natural material that cattle, horses or even elephants eat. The waste from those animals is actually beneficial for your yard and garden.
You should always pick up after your dog and throw the waste into the trash can. Some smaller cities might prefer the waste to be washed down the toilet, but in cities where there are many dogs, it’s best to send the waste to the landfill.
When you properly deal with your dog’s waste, you’ll be doing your part to keep harmful bacteria out of your yards, your neighborhoods and your drinking water.
1.What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A. The author’s dog is as lovely as a child.
B. Dog waste can pollute the environment.
C. Owning a dog is a troublesome experience.
D. Dog waste is more harmful than landmines.
2.Which shows the right organization of the passage?
（P1 ＝ Paragraph 1; P2 ＝ Paragraph 2; P3 ＝ Paragraph 3; P4 ＝ Paragraph 4; P5 ＝ Paragraph 5）
3.Which of the following statements about dog waste is true?
A. It makes a kind of natural fertilizer of high quality.
B. The microorganisms in dog waste are helpful to water.
C. It is better to wash dog waste down a toilet or bury it in a landfill.
D. Dog waste is more beneficial to soil than other kinds of animal waste.
4.What is the main purpose of this passage?
A. To scold those who ignore their dog’s waste.
B. To introduce ways of cleaning up dog waste.
C. To warn dog owners about the danger of dog waste.
D. To argue it is the duty of the owners to clean up dog waste.

A recent housing project in Helsinki offers remarkably cheap apartments for those under the age of 25. They must commit to spending time with their older neighbors.
Helsinki offers 247-suqare-foot studio apartments with a bathroom, storage space, kitchen, and balcony for only $272 every month—about a third of the average price for a studio in the city. The apartment is inside homes for the elderly, and the young renter must spend between three to five hours with their elderly neighbors each week.
Like pretty much all other major cities in the world, Finland’s capital of Helsinki has faced rapid population growth in recent years. And with population growth, comes an inevitable rise in the cost of living, and of course, sharp increase in rent. Currently, Helsinki is ranked 14th on the list of the world’s most expensive cities. For those young and freshly independent, this causes terrible problems — even homelessness.
"It's a very expensive city to live in," Mr. Bostrom writes in an email to CNN’s Eoghan Macguire. "If you manage to get an apartment that the city owns, it can be quite affordable. The screening criteria included the ability to participate in a variety of activities, such as cooking or playing instruments, but the number of applicants for those apartments is so high that waiting list takes forever,” he says.
According to Helsinki’s Youth Housing Association, the city council aims to ensure that every young person will have a home by 2018. Miki Mielonen, a representative of the youth department, says this project, currently in its trial stages, will help out young people while offering social benefits to senior citizens. “I think there is quite a rigid opinion in Finland with many people thinking young of the old ideas that we are going to break down.”
1.Helsinki probably rents a cheap apartment to a young man who ________.
A. reaches the age of 25
B. has financial problems
C. promises to accompany the elderly
D. agrees to share it with his neighbor
2.Which is the root reason for the housing problems in Helsinki?
A. The population explosion.
B. The high living standard.
C. World’s priciest apartment rent.
D. Low employment of college graduates.
3.According to Mr Bostrom, the cheap apartments are ________.
A. well-decorated B. difficult to afford
C. in short supply D. popular with technicians
4.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. The young in Helsinki are mostly homeless.
B. Helsinki will overcome people’s prejudice.
C. The project will be experimental in future.
D. The project is more beneficial to the young.
