【题目】 Some scientists were studying sea turtles in Costa Rica in Central America. Suddenly they found one turtle had something sticking out of its nose. It could not breathe. At first, the scientists thought it was a worm. But when they pulled the object out, it was a plastic straw(吸管).
After the scientists made sure the turtle was healthy, they helped it back into the water. They posted a video of the rescue on the Internet. When people saw it, they were shocked.
The video motivated Diana Lofflin to start StrawFree.org. The group is in California. Its goal is to make people aware of (意识到)the harm plastic straws cause to the environment. Lofflin hopes people will find alternatives(可选择的事物)to plastic straws.
Sipping from a straw is fun. But think twice. Giving up that plastic straw can help protect the environment. Saying no to a plastic straw is a way to make a difference in the world.
A movement to ban(禁止)plastic straws is growing. In California, it is illegal for food servers to give straws to customers who don’t ask for them. Seattle, Washington, has banned all plastic utensils(器具).
Plastic straws are put out for the taking in many restaurants. But some states no longer allow it.
Starbucks is banning plastic straws. The company says it will stop handing out plastic straws in all its stores by 2020. With 28,000 stores, that’s about 1 billion fewer straws a year. How will you sip your drink? The company has made a new lid for its cups, like those used by little kids. Unlike straws, the new lid can be recycled.
Nancy Wallace works for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, in Washington, D.C. She says schools should reduce the amount of plastic they use. Kids must do their part, too. Plastic litter gets into rivers, lakes, and oceans. If fish and other animals eat it ,they will be killed. Wallace says : “We’re pinning our hopes on the next generation to help solve this problem.”
【1】Why did the scientists post a video of rescuing the turtle on the Internet?
A.To make a big difference all over the world.
B.To make the people shocked while seeing it.
C.To ban plastic straws in California and other states.
D.To arouse people’s awareness of environmental protection.
【2】What does the underlined word “motivated ” in Paragragh 3 refer to ?
A.Helped.B.Allowed.
C.Asked.D.Encouraged.
【3】What is the best title of the passage?
A.The new lid.B.Hopes on children.
C.The last StrawD.Actions on pollution.

【题目】 It’s wonderful to have a relaxing bath in mineral water while looking out over beautiful scenery. If you live in the US or are planning a visit, consider going to one of the two natural hot springs (温泉) in the western US:
Travertine Hot Springs
At the edge of the Sierra Nevada Mountains near Bridgeport, California lie the Travertine Hot Springs. The orange, green, and red rocks and the mountains create beautiful views for you to enjoy while you bathe. Each pool is a different temperature, so you can find one that’s comfortable for you. These springs can easily be reached by car. Take Route 395 south from Bridgeport and turn left onto Jack Sawyer Road. In about a mile you’ll arrive at the springs. If you like to camp, you can camp along Jack Sawyer Road.
Bagby Hot Springs
In the middle of an ancient forest you’ll find the Bagby Hot Springs. At the springs there are wooden bathhouses, with both private baths and communal baths. Through a system of pipes the spring water is brought to the baths at a temperature of 136 degrees Fahrenheit. If that’s too hot buckets of cold water are also available to mix into the bathtub (浴缸) or to cool off with after your bath.
The Bagby Springs are about 45 minutes from Estacada, Oregon, on Highway 224. To get to the bathhouse there is a 1.5-mile walk from the parking lot through the beautiful Mt. Hood National Forest. While in the area, make sure to visit Portland, which is known for its coffee, restaurants, and music.
The best time to visit the two hot springs is in late spring, or in summer or fall. While in the area, check out the Curecanti National Recreation Area, where you can enjoy canoeing, fishing, bird watching, camping, and hiking.

【题目】Our news is constantly filled with the reality of death and dying. And each of us, if we live long enough, experiences the loss of persons we loved. Children ages eight through ten were asked what they thought about death,and these are some of their answers:
“When you die,God takes care of you like your mother did. When you were alive,only God doesn’t yell at you all the time.’’(Beth,9)
“When you die,they bury you in the ground and your soul goes to heaven,but your body can’t go to heaven because it’s too crowded there already.” (Jimmy, 8)
“Only the good people go to heaven. The other people go where it’s hot all the time like in Florida. ” (Judy,9)
“Doctors help you so you won’t die until you pay their bills.”(Stephanie,9)
I've observed that the loss of a loved one can be one of the most difficult things we humans can face. I’ve known friends of sick and dying people to sit by a bedside or in a hospital room for hours,even days, at a time. I've seen food in homes of people who are dying overflow from kitchen to dining room—food brought by comforting friends from church and con cerned neighbours. And I've observed friends just listen for as long as it takes.
When U.S. Congressman Sam Rayburn (1882—1961) discovered that he was ill,he announced to the House of Representatives he was going home to Texas for medical tests. Some wondered why he did not stay in Washington where there were excellent medical facilities. His answer was a beautiful tribute (颂词) to friendship:"Bonham is a place where people know it when you’re sick,and where they care when you die. ”
No one wants to go through difficult times alone. So Rayburn traded the best of medical technology for the closeness of loving friends. He knew that good friends are good medicine. Often the best.

A. they have the same idea on death

【题目】 Scotland’s wildlife faces a “long march” north to escape global warming and there will be losses along the way, Scotland’s leading conservation body has warned.
Scottish Natural Heritage is to explore ways of helping the country’s animals and plants on their epic (史诗般的) journey, so they can spread from areas that become too warm. too wet or too dry over the coming years. Roads, railways, towns and large open areas represent physical barriers for many kinds of wildlife. but a range of methods can be used to overcome them. Potential solutions include tunnels under or ecoducts (生态桥) over roads and railways; networks of green spaces; increased areas of species-friendly mixed forests and a landscape that is generally more wildlife friendly.
SNH announced the programme — called The Long March. They will initially concentrate on“pinch points” where there is little space for wildlife. The programme takes its name from the “Long March” made by the Chinese Red Army in the 1930s. “Climate change is going to push a whole range of our species north, and it won’t be an easy journey,” SNH’s land use group manager, Duncan said. “The challenges facing our wildlife are similar, although the barriers may be railway lines, motorways and housing estates.
“We need to give wildlife the best possible chance of moving into new climate space by creating stepping stones of suitable habitat in the landscape. By doing this we will give at least some species the opportunity to respond to the warming climate.”
【1】Where will the wildlife move to start a new life?
A.Warmer areas.B.More wet places.
C.Colder places.D.The forest.
【2】What are the possible solutions to the wildlife on their journey?
A.Railways lines.B.Housing estates.
C.Tunnels.D.Motorways.
【3】What can we learn about the wildlife from the last paragraph?
A.The long journey is the best possible chance.
B.Protecting the present habitat is the best way.
C.Moving into new climate space will become extinet.
D.Building stepping stones of suitable habitat is necessary.
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A.Wildlife in DangerB.Escape Routes in trouble
C.Wildlife Faced with Global WarmingD.Escape Routes to North Planed for Wildlife
