26、During the annual political meetings, environmental protection was definitely among the biggest concerns. Actually, it was also an issue that ancient Chinese paid great attention to. In fact, the world’s earliest environmental protection concept, ministry and laws were all born in China. So, what did the ancient Chinese do to protect the environment?
In early ancient China, environmental protection was promoted to the political level. Xunzi, a famous thinker in Warring States Period, brought up the concept of managing state affairs through environmental protection. He stated in his book that vegetation (植被) should not be damaged at will. Guan Zhong, an official 400 years ahead of Xunzi, was also an environmental protection expert. During his term of office, he claimed that “a King who cannot protect his vegetation is not qualified to be a king”.
According to a record in Qing dynasty, the environmental protection ministry in early ancient China was called “Yu”, standing both for the institution and the official title. Although most functions were similar to such ministries today, the administration range of it was much larger, including the mountains, forests, rivers, lakes and so on.
The nine ministries established by Shun, an ancient Chinese king, already included “Yu”, the environmental protection ministry. The first “Yu” official was a man called Boyi, who was indeed an environmental protection expert. He was a capable assistant to Dayu, an ancient Chinese water-control expert. He invented wells, protecting people’s drinking water from pollution. He knew a lot about animals and also called for animal protection.
Environmental protection laws dated back to the ruling period of Dayu, which was more than 4,000 years ago. During his rule, he issued a ban, forbidding people to cut down wood in March or catch fish in June, the time when they were supposed to boom.
In Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period almost 3,000 years ago, “environmental protection laws” appeared in its true sense in Qin, which was recorded in Law of Fields and regarded as China’s earliest environmental protection laws.
【1】Which statement would Xunzi probably agree with?
A．Vegetation shouldn’t be damaged at all.
B．Much attention should be paid to people’s drinking water.
C．The king who failed to protect the environment should be removed.
D．Running a country and environmental protection should be combined.
【2】What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A．The Qing dynasty.
B．The ministry of Yu.
C．The official title.
D．The modern ministry.
【3】Why couldn’t fish be caught in June during Dayu’s rule?
A．Fish didn’t taste delicious in June.
B．It was too hot to catch fish in June.
C．Fish had a period of rapid growth in June.
D．Fish-catching time had already passed in June.
【4】Who was the first environmental protection minister in ancient China?
A．Shun.
B．Boyi.
C．Xunzi.
D．Guan Zhong.
【5】Which is the best title of the passage?
A．How the Ancient Chinese Protect the Environment
B．Famous Environmental Protection Experts in Ancient China
C．Dayu — a Great Environmental Protector
D．Measures of the World’s Earliest Environmental Protection
27、Best places to visit in the UK
London: The UK's All-in-One Destination

28、On Tuesday, Australian Broadcasting Corporation was informed about the patented device that is developed by Len Humphreys and Thomas Maschmeyer, Sydney University professors, to process plastic. The pair of Australian scientists have come off with the solution to the significant problem in today's environment that is the recycling of plastic. Plastic is the only thing that currently cannot be recycled.
The two scientists have invented a device called Catalytic Hydrothermal Reactor. The method that can deal with plastic is known as the Catalytic Hydrothermal Reactor(Cat-HTR). Humphreys said to Australian Broadcasting Corporation that the new device could turn plastic into fuel or remade new plastic with the process that is known as chemical recycling. By the process of chemical recycling, the plastic changes at a molecular level, and after that, it changes the plastic into oil.
Humphreys also said that the Cat-HTR is different from physical recycling as you don't have to separate the plastic according to the type and color. The device could change the plastic back to the liquid and the chemical that they were formed. The device could also change the plastic into petrol or any different kinds of plastic, according to Humphreys.
The Cat-HTR could recycle everything from milk boxes to wetsuits according to the report. The product is going to be introduced in the United Kingdom by the company Licella as the company is pushing the technology into the market. This product is an emergency requirement all around the globe to reduce the waste as every year, and only ten percent of the 3.5 tons of plastics that are thrown away are recycled. Due to the increasing misuse, the plastic was almost banned from the market; still, the issue is not solved, and the new device may reduce the problem.
【1】Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A．A New Way to Recycle Plastic
B．A New Device Cat-HTR
C．The Future of Plastic Products
D．Environment Pollution and Plastic
【2】What can we know about plastic according to the text?
A．Wetsuits are all made from plastic.
B．Plastic can be turned into petrol easily.
C．Everything can be recycled except plastic so far.
D．Plastic has been banned from the market completely.
【3】What can we know from what Humphreys said?
A．The Cat-HTR recycles plastic using a physical way.
B．The plastic changes at an atom level using the Cat-HTR.
C．The Cat-HTR has the ability to turn the plastic into petrol.
D．Only plastic of a certain kind can be recycled by the Cat-HTR.
【4】Why did Licella plan to introduce the Cat-HTR?
A．Because the Cat-HTR can recycle milk boxes and wetsuits.
B．Because the misuse of plastics in the market is greatly increasing.
C．Because the new device can solve the problem of waste plastics.
D．Because the company is making the technology more widespread.
29、Even when communicating with nature we depend on technology for help — but then, so did Thoreau (梭罗) at Walden Pond (瓦尔登湖).
Walking in the same woods yesterday, I let myself wander aimlessly, communicating with nature. I admired the breathtaking scenery near and far thanks to my progressive-lens eyeglasses. Occasionally I’d pull out my smart phone to shoot pictures on anything interesting. At times, I referred to my smart watch to check on my heartbeat, mileage and calorie burn. Eventually I realized I was quite lost. Not a problem of course. Online maps came to my aid.
But something hit me. In what I’d intended as a nature experience, here I was turning to very advanced technology to help myself out. This awareness encouraged a reconsideration of everything that happened during my “nature walk,” which had been technologically improved every step of the way. I’d been functioning as a man-machine combination (结合): a cyborg.
What would the true naturalist Thoreau think of that? My first thought was that he’d be shocked. But later I did some research. Thoreau enjoyed what his spyglass discovered, like this eagle from his journal:
Lying on the ground with my glass, I could watch him very easily … till I almost lost him in the clouds … I think I have got the worth of my glass now that it has revealed(显示) to me the white-headed eagle.
Famously, Thoreau always set out equipped with a walking stick, which he used not only for support but also to take measurements of water and snow levels. His hat was also a tool, which he called his “botany-box.” And he was prepared even with needles and thread (针线), so when stepping out of the woods, he was “the best dressed.” Clearly, Thoreau was a bit of a cyborg himself.
Thinking more deeply, I realized we’ve come a long way from our hunter-gatherer ancestors, who walked from necessity and depended on nature’s gift. Cyborgs are us.
【1】What is the purpose of the text?
A．To recommend Thoreau’s book Walden Pond.
B．To share the reflections on man’s dependence on nature.
C．To argue that humans have developed into cyborgs.
D．To question whether people are technology-dependent.
【2】Which picture best illustrates a cyborg in the author’s eye?
A．
B．
C．
D．
【3】Why does the author quote (引用) Thoreau’s journal?
A．To prove that even naturalists use technology.
B．To show that Thoreau is a true naturalist.
C．To explain how to prepare for a nature walk.
D．To describe the natural beauty Thoreau enjoyed.
【4】What is the author’s attitude towards being a cyborg?
A．Negative.
B．Positive.
C．Doubtful.
D．Unclear.
