24、It’s important to learn things about protecting environment. Here’s a 5Rs rule for us.

·Reduce（减少）

If you want to reduce waste, you should use things wisely. A large number of trees are being cut down to make paper. If everyone uses paper carelessly and then throws it away, soon we would not have any trees left. Some other things are also being wasted, and people don’t know what to do with waste in big cities, so it’s necessary to reduce waste.

·Reuse（再利用）

You should always think of reusing the usable（可用的） things before throwing them away. Give your clothes or things you don’t use to the poor. In a family, you may pass such clothes on to your younger brothers or sisters.

·Recycle（再回收）

Bottles, cans（罐）and paper can easily be recycled. By doing so we save lots of time and money, for example, cola cans are sent to a factory, where they’re smashed flat（压平）and smelted (熔化), and the metal things are made into new cola cans.

·Recover（恢复）

When you buy a box of apples, there may be a few rotten（腐烂的）apples, you have two choice: one is to throw the whole apples away, or you should cut off the rotten parts and use the good parts. In this way, you are recovering the eatable parts of food.

·Repair

If one of the legs of your table is broken, you can repair it instead of throwing the table away. If you want to change for better ones, it’s better for you to sell the old ones or give them to other people who can use them after doing some repair.

【1】The “Reduce” rule mainly requires us _____.

A. to use things wisely

B. to cut down many trees

C. to use paper careless

a. smash them flat

b. collect the used cans

26、

Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are busy trying to make money in order to pay for my brother' s education and mine. They don't act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. For them, "I love you" is too difficult to say. Even sending flowers to each other on some special days is hardly ever seen.

One day, my mother was repairing a quilt(被子). I silently sat beside her and looked at her. "Mum, may I ask you a question?" I said.

"What?" she replied, still doing her work. "Is there love between you and Dads" I asked her in a very low voice. My mother stopped her work and looked at me in surprise. She didn't answer my question at once. Then, she bowed her head and continued to do her work.

I was afraid that I had hurt her feelings. I felt so embarrassed that I didn't know what to do. But at last I heard my mother say the following words:

"Look at this thread(线). Sometimes it appears, but most of the time, it hides in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be seen anywhere or anytime, but it's really there."

I couldn't understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned from the hospital, they both looked very pale. After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my  father walk slowly on the country road. My father had never been so gentle. The doctor had said my father would recover in two months. But after two months he still couldn't walk by himself. All of us were worried about him. "Dad, how are you feeling now" I asked him one day. "Susan, don't worry about me." he said gently. "To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mum. I like this kind of life. Reading his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.

Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But from this experience, I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.

【1】Why does the writer sometimes doubt whether there is real love between her parents?

A.Because they are very busy earning money.

B.Because her father gets angry with her mother easily.

C.Because they often fight with each other.

D.Because they hardly express Their love to each other.

【2】What does the underlined word "durable " mean in Chinese?

A.好看的 B.廉价的 C.耐用的 D.朴素的

【3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.The writer understood her mum's words at once.

B.People should often say "I love you".

C.The writer's parents didn't love each other.

D.Love is there, no matter whether you say it or not.

【4】What's the main idea of the passage`s

A.We should understand our parents.

B.Love is inside，making life strong and warm.

C.Love is really very important to anyone.

D.Lave should be outside, and can be seen everywhere.

27、Have you ever walked down a city street and suddenly seen a bright garden full of vegetables and flowers?

It may be a community garden. The community gardens are planted by the people in the community. They are not just pretty places. They improve the neighborhoods.

People first started planting these gardens during the 1970s. At that time, the price of vegetables and fruits was rising. In many city neighborhoods, crime(犯罪) was increasing. There were also many other problems. People decided to get together to plant gardens to fight against these problems. The gardeners thought they might make the area more beautiful and improve people’s life.

Each person decides what he or she is going to grow. However, they also work together to help each other. Some members have gardening experience. They can help those who are just learning how to grow vegetables and fruits.

Sometimes, garden members pay for supplies. The supplies usually include small plants and tools. Many community gardens have sponsors(赞助者). They pay for the supplies for the gardens. It helps to keep the gardens going every year. Sponsors may be parks, schools and local companies. Some groups want to be a part of the community. They help clean up and beautify a neighborhood. They also pay for the supplies.

Community gardens give people a chance to work together. They can make the community stable(安定的). There are many programs of community gardens. Some gardens provide programs for children and elder people. They may provide classes. They may give the vegetables and fruits to poor people. Community gardens also improve air.
