21、If you were to throw, say, a banana peel out of your car while driving along the motorway, that would be a completely harmless action, due to the fact that it’s part of a fruit — right? Actually, no. A banana peel can take up to two years to be naturally processed, and with a third of motorists admitting to littering while driving, that’s a whole lot of discarded banana peels. An orange peel and a cigarette butt has a similar biodegrading (生物降解) term to that of a banana peel, but tin cans last up to 100 years; and plastic bottles last forever, as do glass bottles.
Despite the fact that longer-lasting materials will serve to damage the environment and its animals for longer, we can’t merely measure the severity of a certain type of rubbish by its lifetime. For example, despite having a fairly short length of biodegrading time, more than 120 tons of cigarette-related litter is discarded in the UK every day.
It’s not a cheap habit either: to keep our streets clean annually costs UK taxpayers £500 million, and when you include our green spaces, that goes up to £1 billion. So, it’s not surprising that if caught fly-tipping you could face a £20,000 fine or even jail time and, if you disposed of something dangerous, the court could give you five years to serve. Regardless of how severe these punishments might seem, however, among the reported cases only 2,000 were found guilty out of 825,000, so we still have some way to go in making sure people obey the rules.
【1】What does the underlined word “discarded” in para1 mean?
A．Harmless.
B．Processed.
C．Thrown.
D．Long-lasting.
【2】Which of the following has the longest biodegrading term?
A．Glass bottles.
B．Tin cans.
C．Cigarette butts.
D．Banana peels.
【3】What can be inferred from the passage?
A．The severity of rubbish can be measured by its lifetime.
B．Quite a few people were found guilty of illegally littering.
C．Every year UK taxpayers spend £500 million keeping streets free of dirt.
D．Cigarette-related litter and peels can be ignored for their fairly short lifetime.
【4】What is the purpose of the passage?
A．To inform readers of different biodegrading terms.
B．To call for people not to litter illegally.
C．To encourage people to use fewer plastic bags.
D．To stress the importance of good behavior.
22、 The Amazon rain forest is on fire. There are more fires burning there than ever before. That's according to Brazil's National Institute for Space Research. Using satellites to track deforestation and wildfires, the agency has counted 74,155 fires in the Amazon this year. That's roughly an 84% increase over last year at this time. The effects of the fires are being felt across Brazil. Parts of the country are covered in smoke. In the state of Sao Paulo, heavy smoke caused the sky to go black and blocked the sun on Monday. Other Brazilian states have declared the situation an emergency. One state has been put on “environmental alert.”
Some people think the policies of Brazil's president, Jair Bolsonaro, have led to the increase in fires. He wants to change laws that protect the Amazon so businesses can clear more land for commercial use. Bolsonaro says the fires are blazing simply because “it is the season of the queimada."(Queimada means "burned" in Portuguese. Portuguese is the official language of Brazil.)
But experts say Bolsonaro is wrong. They don't blame the increase in fires on the season. They point to deforestation and a worldwide increase in temperatures. “Trees, if they're stressed out by heat repeatedly, are more susceptible toother kinds of damage,” such as fires, says Deborah Lawrence. She's an environmental sciences professor at the University of Virginia.
Carlos Nobre is a Brazilian climate scientist. He's also an expert in tropical forests. The situation is “very sad,” according to Nobres. “We usually would see this surge of fire in very, very exceptionally dry years,” he says. “The fact that this record—breaking figure comes out in a relatively un—dry dry season shows that deforestation is increasing.”
【1】What is the result of this fire?
A．Many people died in this fire.
B．Most of the states in Brazil feel the effects of the fire.
C．Many trees and animals are destroyed.
D．Brazil declared the situation an emergency.
【2】Which of the following statements is not true in this passage?
A．The Amazon rain forest has few fires this year.
B．Some people think the president should take responsibility for the fire.
C．Some experts say the fire is caused because of the season.
D．Carlos Nobre thinks fires should happen in a very exceptionally dry year.
【3】What can be inferred from Deborah Lawrence's words?
A．Trees are sensitive to some kinds of damage.
B．Fires are caused because of the season.
C．Deforestation is increasing in the world.
D．Fires happened in exceptionally dry year.
【4】What is the main idea of this passage?
A．We should take measures to stop fires.
B．What we can do for the fires.
C．Fire happens in The Amazon rain forest.
D．Fires cause much damage.

24、The latest target for TV advertisers is children in Asia. Asian families are getting smaller and wealthier, and Asian children are watching more and more TV. It is said that the average Hong Kong child sees about 25,000 TV advertisements a year.
To get the attention (and the money) of these young audiences, the advertisers use little actors. “The kids share the same feelings with someone from their own age group,” says one advertiser, “so this kind of advertisement is more effective. And, of course, the little actors earn big money.”
Not everyone is happy to see kids turned into buyers. “Advertising to children is wrong,” said Pasty Liang, “because its aim is to make them ask their parents for money to buy things. Also, many things advertised, such as toys, are silly and encourage violence. If a child buys them, he or she will learn nothing.” Some educators believe that if young people watch the ads, they will become more and more materialistic.
Some people even think it wrong to use little actors in TV advertisements. “It is illegal for kids to work in factories, so why are they allowed to work in ads? Also, considering the high salaries, it is bad for children to have too much money.” said Elvis Hu.
As an advertiser, J W Lu clearly has his own opinion about this. “It is nothing wrong with children earning a lot of money or asking their parents to buy things for them. Besides, kids buy toy to have fun, not to learn from.”
Anyway, governments are beginning to take action to protect children. An ad would not be allowed to appear on TV if it made children feel inferior (低人一等的) because they didn’t own the advertised product.
【1】The advertisers use little actors so that ________.
A. the ads can attract young audiences
B. the little actors can earn big money
C. the kids will share the same feelings
D. people will see more TV advertisements
【2】What does the underlined word “illegal” mean?
A. Not liked by the children.
B. Not allowed by the law.
C. Not accepted by the public.
D. Not agreed to by the parents.
【3】Who thinks it all right for kids to earn money by acting in ads?
A. Elvis Hu. B. J W Lu.
C. Pasty Liang. D. Some educators.
【4】Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Little actors earn less money than adults.
B. Advertisers want children to learn from toys.
C. Some people are not for advertising to children.
D. Governments are taking action to protect advertisers.
【5】What is the best title for the passage?
A. Little Actors or Adult Actors
B. How to Get Children’s Attention
C. Opinions about TV Advertisements
D. Children: New Target for TV Advertisements
