24、As we become richer and richer, we are producing more and more rubbish. The Asian Development Bank（ADB） says that our largest cities produce 760 000 tons of solid waste every day. It predicts（预料） that there will be an increase—to 1.8 million tons—by 2025. It seems too much to deal with. “The growing waste is simply trying to cover our cities,” says Michael Lindfield, a specialist of ADB in Manila.

The proper treatment of rubbish is beyond the financial resources（金融资源）of many countries. The World Bank says some governments are spending as much as half of their budgets（预算） dealing with rubbish. And even so, it is common that half of all the waste goes uncollected.

Much of the added difficulty is packaging from consumer（消费者）products and the products themselves—all of which need years, even centuries to decompose（化解）. Lindfield believes that four of every five products we buy are thrown away after a single use. It all makes the work to deal with solid waste much more expensive.

The rubbish is more than just an environmental problem—it also influences national economies（经济） by disturbing the world market, discouraging tourism and slowing down industrial development.

Lots of rubbish also influences the look of our cities. As he walks to work from his home in Bangkok every day, Chatchat Mutita, a 36-year-old advertising specialist, must pass a lot of ugly, smelly rubbish that isn’t collected until late at night. He says things get worse when it rains because some yellow water will stream from the rubbish to the sidewalk.

Modern technology can make the problems of open dumps less serious. But Chettiyappan Visvanathan, a professor at the Asian Institute of Technology in Pathumthal, Thailand, believes that there are no engineered facilities（设备） in nine of every ten dumps all over the country. Some countries depend on most solid waste to produce energy, but there’s a growing problem of air pollution. Burning is far more dangerous than open dumps. The ADB says the growing rubbish must be dealt with by the “3Rs” —reducing the waste, reusing things that are being thrown away and recycling materials.

【1】What’s the main idea of the passage?

A．What our environment looks like.

B．How important to clean our cities.

C．What a serious problem we have.

D．How difficult to remove rubbish.

【2】Which of the the following can be the most serious problem rubbish brings to us?

A．It causes a lot of difficulty cleaning up our cities.

B．It stops our nation economies from developing.

C．It makes our environment uglier and dirtier.

D．It brings air pollution, water pollution and diseases.

【3】What does the underlined sentence mean in the passage?

A．Many countries are short of proper methods to deal with rubbish.

B．Many countries are not rich enough to deal with rubbish properly.

C．Many countries are short of proper resources to deal with rubbish.

D．Many countries are not wise enough to deal with rubbish properly.

【4】Which of the following is true, according to the passage?

A．There are both hope and difficulty in our future.

B．It’s impossible for us to make our cities clean.

C．We may find some ways but things will be worse.

D．The problem is not serious if everyone knows it.

26、English is becoming more and more popular in China. It can be used in every field, such as on some signs and restaurant menus. But there are some problems when people use it. Perhaps you’ve seen the English letters “WC” in your city. They show public toilets. But do you know it is far from native (地道的) English? In fact, foreigners from English-speaking countries seldom use the letters.

Workers in our city are changing “WC” signs all over the city. The government is spending much money changing all the bad English on signs and restaurant menus. Many other places in China are following our steps.

“WC, or water closet, is old-fashioned English. It sounds dirty to me,” says Nancy, a young woman from the US. The old sign will become “Gents/Men” and “Ladies/Women”. “I see much poor English in everyday life, and not only on signs,” she says, “I know what they mean, but they are Chinglish, not real English. For example, when someone says to me ‘My hometown is Guizhou Province’, I know he or she should say ‘My hometown is in Guizhou Province’. Hometown is a smaller place in a province.” The common mistakes that Nancy picked up include “Not Entry”, which should be “No Entry”,“Direction of Airport” should be changed to “To the Airport”. And it is “Room Rate” not “Room Price”. And remember to “Keep off the Grass”, rather than “Care of the Green”.

The next time you walk on the street or eat in the restaurant, you can go and see if the expressions are right.

【1】Who seldom uses letters of “WC” according to the passage?

A．Chinese students.

B．Foreigners from other countries.

C．Teachers in China.

D．English-speaking foreigners.

【2】What’s the attitude (态度) of the government towards the bad English on signs?

A．It’s native.

B．It should be changed.

C．It doesn’t matter.

D．It can be used on signs.

【3】Which of the following signs is RIGHT?

A．Not Entry.

B．Room Price.

C．To the Airport.

D．Care of the Green.

【4】What is the main idea of the passage?

A．Chinglish on menus.

B．Money spent on Chinglish.

C．Usages of native English.

D．Letters of “WC”.

The Kubuqi Desert just shows China's efforts against desertification. The desert once caused a lot of sandstorms in Beijing. However, thanks to people's hard work, about one-third of the Kubuqi Desert is now covered with kinds of plants, and sandstorms are【7】common now, reported Xinhua.
