24、Saving water is an important part of goinggreen. As water becomes less and polluted more, conservation(保护)becomes more and more important. The less water you use, the less wastewater will end up in our rivers and lakes. Wasting water means that more water needs to be treated and cleaned, a process that requires quite a lot of energy.
As it is said above, cutting down on water usage is one of the most important things you can do for your local environment and the planet as a whole. That is why more green households are going blue: cutting down their water footprint by conserving and harvesting(收获)water.
It may seem like a big concept, but going blue starts with small changes that everyone can make. Something as simple as turning off the tap while you brush your teeth can save a lot of water. Wash your fruit and vegetables in a bowl rather than under a tap to save even more. Make sure that the taps are fully turned off every time you step away from the sink or the shower - all those little drips can add up to a lot of water waste.
Another way of reducing your water footprint is reducing your dependence on the main water supply. Rainwater harvesting can meet a lot of your home's water needs. Many of us already practice rainwater harvesting in a small way. Collecting water from your gutters(檐沟)is a great way to keep your garden green without running the sprinkler(洒水器).
【1】The underlined word "green" means in this passage.
A. 未成熟的 B. 环保 C. 嫉妒 D. 健康的
【2】According to the passage, which is NOT the reason that people should save water?
A. Treating wastewater needs much energy.
B. The water on the Earth is becoming less and less.
C. The water on the Earth is becoming polluted more.
D. Rainwater harvesting can meet a lot of your home's water needs.
【3】According to the passage, all of these can be used to save water except .
A. washing fruit and vegetables under a tap
B. using a bowl to wash your fruit and vegetables
C. making sure taps are fully turned off all the time
D. turning off the tap every time while brushing your teeth
【4】From the passage. we can know that .
A. we can get enough water by harvesting
B. most people pay no attention to saving water
C. we can practice rainwater harvesting in a small way
D. harvesting water is more necessary than conserving it
25、 Upcycling is the process of changing old materials into something useful and often beautiful.
So, is it the same as recycling? No. Recycling takes materials-paper or glass-and breaks them down so their base materials can be remade into a new product. When you upcycle an item(物品), you are not breaking down the material,
you are simply refashioning it. For example, you might make shoes out of old tyres. Also, the upcycled item is typically of the same, or even better, quality(质量) than the original.
Upcycling isn’t a new idea. Some of the best examples of modern-day upcycling come from the 1930s to 1940s when families didn’t have enough materials. In those days, things were repurposed over and over until there were no longer useful. For example, an old door can be made into a new dining table. Economising(节约) is still a trend(趋势) today and a big reason why more and more people upcycle. But an even bigger reason for the rebirth of upcycling is its good influence on the environment.
Upcycling is green. The plain and simple fact of the matter is that upcycling is much better for the planet than throwing things away. When you upcycle, that's one item less that ends upon the waste mountain. Upcycling is also considerably more environmentally friendly than recycling, which needs energy or water to break down materials. Upcycling just needs your own creativity and effort.
Grace Robinson, from the UK, takes used tea bags and turns them into dresses, shoes and even hats. Every day she drinks some tea, and then dries out the tea bags with the tea still in them. When they are dry, she takes the tea out and sews the bags together to make clothes. This can take a long time- maybe months for a single dress -so Grace gets friends to help her by drinking tea too and passing their tea bags on to her.
There are two ways to support the upcycling movement. Sort(分类)through your wardrobe or recycling bin and create items yourself, or buy ready-made items from upcycled materials. Both ways benefit the environment and in return, you get something that’s both attractive and practical.
【1】We can learn from the passage that upcycling ___________.
A.can improve the quality of items
B.needs more energy than recycling
C.needs to break down base materials
D.produces more waste than recycling
【2】The underlined word"refashioning"in Paragraph 2 probably means “___________”.
A.giving a new form B.giving a simple name
C.making a perfect copy D.making a different model
【3】The writer probably agrees that ___________.
A.it is better to make clothes with used tea bags
B.upcycling is much greener than recycling
C.it is necessary to help others to upcycle
D.people need to be more creative
【4】Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.Get started to recycle today
B.A modern trend: upcycling
C.Is it the same as recycling?
D.To recycle or to upcycle?
26、My teenage son Karl became withdrawn after his father died. As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him. But the more I tried, the more he pulled away. When his report card arrived during his junior year, it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six falling grades for the year. In this case he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged (乞求)him. Nothing worked.
One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and begged for help. “Please God, I can’t do anything more for my son. I’m at the end of my rope. I’m giving the whole thing up to you. ”
I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karl’s absences. ” Before he could say another word, I choked (哽咽)up and all my disappointment (失望) and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son but I just don’t know what to do. I’ve tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It’s out of my hands. ” For a moment there was silence on the other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, “Thank you for your time. ” and hung up.
Karl’s next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades. Finally, he was even on the list of the best students at school. In his fourth year, I attended a parent-teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were surprised at the way he had turned himself around.
After the meeting, Karl said, “Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year? ” I nodded.
“That was me. I thought I’d play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. That’s when I knew I had to make you proud. ”

27、 Most people cannot choose their jobs. They only have their jobs forced upon (被迫) them. This may be because they haven’t enough training for any other job, or because of economic situation, or because they live in a place where there is a limited choice of jobs, or because their fathers and grandfathers have always followed a certain occupation. The Indian born of farmer parents in a village has, for example, few opportunities of becoming anything but a farmer.
But if one is lucky enough to be able to choose the job one is going to do, how should one make one’s choice? One’s choice clearly depends on what one wants to get out of one’s job.
Some people believe that nobody can do a job well if they do not enjoy it. But this is probably true only of certain types of work. And there are those who have an ability for turning their job into something that is an enjoyable way of earning their living (挣钱生计), but who do not really do their work well. Some doctors, for example, who become rich and famous men are in fact not owning humanity (人性) which is necessary in their job, and may even not be especially skilled at their job. So are some lawyers. Perhaps many of the best doctors, lawyers, and teachers spend their lives working so hard for others that do not have time to become rich and famous. One must decide, when choosing a job, whether one wants to do a job for its own sake (为工作本身) or for the rewards (报酬) it offers.
【1】“They only have their jobs forced upon them” may means ________.
A.they make themselves do the jobs
B.they have to do the jobs available
C.they must follow what their fathers used to do
D.their jobs are chosen by others
【2】The underlined word “opportunities” in the first paragraph probably means “________.”
A.hobbies B.forms C.efforts D.chances
【3】According to the passage, a person’s choice of job should be decided by ________.
A.his economic situation B.his family background
C.his purpose in taking a job D.his ability to do a job
【4】The writer seems to have a good impression on those doctors who are ________.
A.rich. B.famous. C.skillful. D.hardworking.
【5】How many occupations are mentioned in the last paragraph?
A.One B.Two C.Three D.Four
【6】We may infer (推断) from the passage that ________.
A.lawyers are those people who work very hard for others
B.humanity is necessary in the making of a good doctor
C.a successful person is one who can make his living in an enjoyable way
D.teachers must be rich and famous if they work hard.
28、Can plants eat people? Probably not, but【1】are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big. And they can eat small 【2】. One famous meat-eating plant is Venus Flytrap (捕蝇草).
Venus Flytrap is【3】very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its【4】
are like the pages of a book.They can open and close very【5】. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs.If a fly touches one of the hairs, the leaf【6】quickly，so the fly cannot get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses the fly【7】it is dead. Then, the plant covers the fly and slowly eats it.
Why do plants do that? Most plants get what they need【8】the sun, the air, and the ground. In some places, the ground is very【9】. It doesn’t have all these important things, especially nitrogen(氮). Animal meat has a lot of nitrogen,so some plants eat meat to get what they【10】. Let’s hope that bigger plants don’t get the same idea!
