    Beijing—Beijing is to spend up to US $20 billion to change the Chinese capital into a 21st-century one for the 2008 Olympics.

    The government managed to host the 2008 games. The general aim is for Beijing to have the same environmental standards as Paris, London or Washington by 2008.

    Hundreds of millions of dollars will be spent to pipe natural gas to the city's home, taking away dirty coal burning gradually while 60,000 buses will be changed to liquefied(液化的)gas.

    The money will also be used relocating the polluting factories and building green belts. By 2008 around 90 percent of Beijing's waste will be treated, compared to only 40 percent at present.

    Olympic officials realize the city has a long way to go to match the environmental standards of such cities as Paris, Toronto, Istanbul and Osaka.

    City officials have already announced that around 50 large projects are being dealt with to improve traffic congestion(拥挤)and cut down pollution. They include construction of Beijing's first light railway, a 40.5-kilometer line which is ?expected to be completed in 2005.

    Beijing plans to build an 82.55-kilometer long subway to add to existing 53 kilometers. Nine major roads will be rebuilt or widened.

    A. solve the problem of being short of fuel

    B. bring down the cost of daily life

    C. reduce the pollution of our capital

    C. a 40.5-meter-long line will be added to Beijing's first light railway

    D. a 70-meter-wide green belt will supply us with enough water

    Have you ever stayed in a hotel? Most Chinese hotels often provide guests with things like disposable (一次性的) toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and slippers. Many guests like the idea because they don't have to bring their own. But, if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring your own things. Starting from June, some hotels in Beijing will no longer provide guests with these disposables. They want to ask people to use less disposable things.

    Many disposable things are made of plastic(塑料). People throw them away after only using them once. It is a waste of natural resources and is very bad for the environment. Do you know, one Chinese person makes as much as 400kg of waste a year! Most of that waste comes from disposable things. In Beijing, people throw away about 19,000 tons of plastic bags and 1,320 tons of plastic lunch bowls every year! Plastic can take between 100 and 400 years to break down. So the less plastic we throw out, the better. So, wherever you travel, bring your own things and use them again and again.

    Back at home and school, you can also do something to make our world a better place. Try to do these things in your daily life:

    Use cloth shopping bags, not plastic ones.

    After using a plastic bag, wash it out and let it dry. Then you can use it over and over again.

    Do not use paper cups. At your school canteen(食堂), use your own bowl and chopsticks instead of disposable ones.

    1.Why do many hotels provide guests with some disposable things?

    A．Let their guests be convenient during their travelling.

    B．Hope their guests use less disposable things.

    C．Wish their guests to save money.

    D．Want their guests to use more disposable things.

    2.Some Beijing hotels will no longer provide guests with ____.

    A．cheap food and drink                    B．disposable things

    C．good service                           D．free TV programs

    3.Which of the following is NOT true?

    A．Many disposable things are made of plastic.

    B．Throwing disposable things away is a waste of natural resources.

    C．Plastic is very bad for the environment.

    D．Plastic breaks down easily.

    4.What can we do to make our world a better place at home and school?

    A．Use shopping bags made of plastic.

    B．Do not throw away paper cups.

    C．Use disposable plates, bowls and chopsticks.

    D．Do not forget to reuse daily necessities(日用品).

    5.We can tell from the story that ____.

    A．people don't like disposable things at all

    B．we can't use paper or plastic bowls at school

    C．we should use less plastic things and protect our environment

    D．hotels won't provide disposable things because they want to save money
