【题目】 At 9 pm, Li Zhigang was sitting in front of his fruit shop on a busy street in central Shanghai’s Xujiahui area, removing the thin plastic film from rotten pears and oranges. “This is so much trouble!” he complained while throwing the plastic into one garbage can and the fruit into another. In the past, Li simply threw away what could not be sold with the packaging on, but from July 1, 2019, he could be fined up to 200 yuan for doing so.

Like Li, many of the tens of millions of residents in Shanghai have been complaining recently that the introduction of compulsory household garbage sorting is making life difficult, but at the same time have been having to learn to do it.

Calls for garbage sorting have brought little progress in China in the past decade, but Shanghai is leading a fresh start for the world’s second-largest waste producer. “If we say China is now classifying its waste, then it’s Shanghai that is really doing it,” said Chen Liwen, an environmentalist who has devoted herself to waste classification for the past decade. “It’s starting late, compared with the US or Japan, but if it’s successful in such a big city with such a huge population, it will mean a lot for the world,” she said. While the measures force a change of habits for most people, they bring opportunities for some. Du Huanzheng, director of the Recycling Economy Institute at Tongji University, said waste sorting was important for China’s recycling industry. “Without proper classification, a lot of garbage that can be recycled is burned, and that’s a pity,” he said. “After being classified, things suitable to be stored and transported can now be recycled.” Besides, prices of small sortable garbage cans for home use have increased on e-commerce (电子商务) platforms, while garbage can makers are also developing smart models in response to new needs. What’s more, garbage sorting is also an important part of a country’s soft power. “For China, it is an opportunity to improve its international reputation. However, it is a long process that requires effort from government, enterprises and individuals (个人),” Du said.

1What do the underlined words “doing so” in Paragraph 1 refer to?

A.Packaging fruit with plastic film.

B.Selling rotten fruit to customers.

C.Throwing rotten fruit into a garbage can.

D.Throwing fruit and its packaging into the same garbage can.

2What does the author want to show by writing Paragraph 2?

A.The new garbage sorting rules in Shanghai are strict.

B.Garbage sorting puts Shanghai residents into trouble.

C.It is not easy to learn how to sort garbage.

D.It’s necessary to sort garbage in Shanghai.

3What is Chen Liwen’s attitude towards garbage sorting in China?

A.Hopeful.B.Doubtful.

C.Uninterested.D.Worried.

4Which of the following is mentioned as a benefit of garbage sorting?

A.It helps reduce the burden of individuals.

B.It makes smart garbage cans affordable.

C.It helps improve China’s hard power.

D.It avoids recyclable things being burned.

【解析】

这是一篇新闻报道。文章通过李志刚分类扔烂水果和包装纸的事例,引出了垃圾分类的话题。同李一样,上海数千万居民中的许多人最近都在抱怨,强制分拣垃圾的做法让生活变得艰难,但与此同时,他们也要学会垃圾分类。垃圾分类也是国家软实力的体现。

1词义猜测题。根据第一段中In the past, Li simply threw away what could not be sold with the packaging on在过去,李志刚只是简单地扔掉了带包装纸的不能卖的烂水果。可知,现在不能再把包装纸和不能卖的烂水果一起扔了,因此划线短语doing so意思是“把水果及其包装扔进同一个垃圾桶。”故选D项。

2推理判断题。根据第二段中many of the tens of millions of residents in Shanghai have been complaining recently that the introduction of compulsory household garbage sorting is making life difficult上海数千万居民中的许多人最近都在抱怨,强制垃圾分类的做法让生活变得艰难。由此判断出,作者写这段的目的是讲述垃圾分类给上海市民带来了麻烦。故选B项。

3推理判断题。根据第三段中“If we say China is now classifying its waste, then it’s Shanghai that is really doing it,” said Chen Liwen, an environmentalist who has devoted herself to waste classification for the past decade. “It’s starting late, compared with the US or Japan, but if it’s successful in such a big city with such a huge population, it will mean a lot for the world,” she said. “如果我们说中国现在正在对其垃圾进行分类,那么实际上是上海在这么做,”在过去十年里一直致力于垃圾分类的环保主义者陈丽文说。她表示:“与美国或日本相比,中国起步较晚,但如果它在一个人口众多的大城市取得成功,将对世界意义重大。”由此判断出,陈丽文对于中国的垃圾分类是支持的态度。故选A项。

4细节理解题。根据第三段中“Without proper classification, a lot of garbage that can be recycled is burned, and that’s a pity,” he said. “After being classified, things suitable to be stored and transported can now be recycled.” “没有正确的分类,很多可以回收的垃圾都被焚烧了,这很可惜,”他说。“分类后,适合储存和运输的东西现在可以回收利用了。”可知,垃圾分类的一个好处是它避免了可回收的东西被烧焚烧。故选D项。

【题目】 Having roommates can sometimes be challenging. 1 It can be said, though, that nearly all issues are based on one roommate's lack of consideration for another.

Considerate people usually have consideration for others simply because it seems like the best thing to do. On the contrary, inconsiderate people usually don't think of themselves as such. 2 This can consequently cause major upset in the atmosphere of a room.

Not all roommates have the same daily schedule, so a common problem that roommates have to deal with is noise. It can be hard to coordinate a time for noise and a time for quiet. One may want to study and the other may want to play music. 3

In the shared areas of the room, problems can arise in terms of how much space one or another roommate claims for himself. 4 This kind of space issue is often repeated in the refrigerator and other areas where each roommate needs an equal amount of space.

5 Although not all problems can be overcome easily, having discussions can sometimes prevent an issue from becoming a major point of tension in the room. For example, sometimes the solution to a problem with space is as simple as a verbal (言语的) exchange of views the problem.

A.There are certain things that roommates may decide not to share.

B.For example, one may take all the shared space for his or her own.

C.This can greatly contribute to the pleasure of living with roommates.

D.And it's hard to explain to these people that they are acting in inconsiderate manners.

E.So it's common that many people experience tough problems when living with others.

F.And one may have friends come over for a talk when the other is sick and trying to rest,

G.Open communication is the best way to come up with a solution to the above problems.

【题目】 I grew up in Hastings, a small coastal town in East Sussex, famous for 1066 years of history and seaside charm. I have a memory as a boy, saving my pocket money by placing it in a special drawer, the golden pound coins collecting into a neat pile. When I was 14 in 2007, I saved up money for a gap year, by working at a bingo hall, and I put the money into a savings account. I remember getting 70 ($91) interest rates one year, which made me feel very rich indeed.

Skip forward to 2018 and I was living and working in Beijing, China, as a journalist. All around me Beijing residents were paying for everything using just their smart phones. They would walk up to a counter of a restaurant, shop, or convenience store, and offer up a QR code(二维码)for the cashier to scan. Once scanned, the online system would immediately deduct(扣除) the exact amount owed from the payer’s e-wallet. No reaching for cash and waiting for change. The transaction would take seconds.

But I was a stubborn holdout. My friends, both Western and Chinese, would make fun of me for being so traditional – for sticking to ―dirty cash. But there were a couple of reasons why I kept using physical money and avoided getting into e-payments and e-wallets. Firstly, it felt safer. I wasn’t really aware of how electronic money would work on my smart phone and I feared it would somehow get easily taken away. Secondly, I feared that by moving to e-payments, I would end up spending more. I would lose all sense of how much, day by day, I would be spending.

Were these fears justified? As more and more people across the world escape cash, these are essential issues for me to consider.

A.Saving 70 ($91) by placing it in a special drawer.

B.Collecting 70 ($91) coins into a neat pile.

C.Putting 70 ($91) into a savings account in bank.

D.Getting 70 ($91) interest rates from a bank.

2Which’s not the advantage of e-payments?

A.No reaching for cash.B.No waiting for change.

C.Taking only few seconds.D.Spending more money.

3Why didn’t the writer like to accept the e- payments at first?

A.Because he was too traditional to save money.

B.Because he liked the sense of paying in cash.

C.Because he thought e-payments would deduct more.

D.Because he knew how e-payments work on smartphones.

4What can we infer about the writer from the last paragraph

A.He accepted the idea that money is abstract.

B.He eventually turned to using e-payments.

C.He thought the pain of e-payment is delayed.

D.He insisted that having physical cash is safer.
