It’s very important that we all recycle. In nature, everything 21 again. For example, when an animal dies, it becomes 22 animal’s food. Nothing is wasted. But humans have created things like plastic bags 23 can’t be broken down by nature. Our rubbish kills animals and
24 water and soil. 25 we continue making too much rubbish, the problem will only get worse. If nature can’t reuse the rubbish, we must recycle 26 .We should clean up the rubbish we’ve made because nature can’t.
Recycling is also the right thing to do for another reason. The earth is rich in natural resources like water and trees, 27 these resources are not endless. We use up our natural resources much
28 than the earth is able to reproduce them. For example, each year we cut 29 more than 6, 000 square miles of forest. But it takes an average of 25 years for a new tree 30 .

参考答案
一、根据句意及首字母提示完成单词。
1. litter【解析】由后句句意“我们应该保持它的干净”可知本句句意为“你不能在公园里乱扔垃圾”，故填litter。litter用作不可数名词，没有复数形式。
2. advantages【解析】由后面的“例如，你可以很容易地买东西”可推知此处句意为“居住在大城市里有很多优点”。advantage意为“优点”，为可数名词。many后跟可数名词复数，故填advantages。
3. industry【解析】句意：旅游业已经成为一个真正的产业。
4. plastic【解析】由后面的“而不是金属玩具”可知此处是指“她给她儿子买了许多塑料玩具”。此处plastic用作形容词，修饰后面的名词toys。
5. Recycling【解析】句意：回收废纸意味着保护树木。此处为动名词短语作主语，故填
Recycling。
二、用括号内所给词的适当形式填空。
6. wooden【解析】wooden boat意为“木船”，形容词wooden修饰名词boat。
7. harmful【解析】be harmful to意为“对……有害”。
8. fishermen【解析】all后若跟可数名词应用其复数形式，fisherman的复数形式为fishermen。
9. scientific【解析】分析句子结构可知，空格处缺少一个形容词来修饰名词experiments。故用science的形容词形式scientific（科学上的；科学的）。句意：我们通过做大量的科学实验发现了真相。
10. to buy【解析】can’t afford to do sth. 意为“承担不起做某事”。
三、单项填空。
11. C【解析】put sth. to good use“好好利用某物”，是固定短语。
12. B【解析】thanks to“幸亏”；instead of“而不是”；as well as“也”；instead“代替”，常放在句末。由“天气晴朗，咱们去观光吧”可知建议不在旅馆里看电视。故instead of符合句意。选B。
13. B【解析】turn on“接通（电源、煤气等），打开（水龙头等）”；turn off“关掉”；turn up“调高；调大”；turn down“调低；调小”。由从句句意“当你离开房间时”可知，主句要表达的句意应为“记得要关灯”。故选B。
14. D【解析】give up“放弃”；put down“放下；记下”；take out“取出”；pull down“拆下；摧毁”。由“to build new ones”可推知“拆除”了那些旧的，故选D。
15. A【解析】C、D两项本身表达错误，take part in是固定短语，不能随意增减或替换词语；take part in指参加会议、群众性活动等；join指加入某个党派、团体、组织等，成为其中的一员。由后面的activities可知选A项。句意：我认为学生们应该在课后参加各种活动。
16. C【解析】throw away“扔掉；抛弃”，为“动词+副词”型短语，人称代词作宾语时，须放在两词之间，可排除B、D两项。these things应用them代替，故选C。
17. B【解析】put off“推迟”；set up“建立”；call in“召来”：look after“照顾”。句意：这个公司想为贫穷的孩子们建立一所学校。故选B。
18. C【解析】make a decision意为“做出决定”；give advice意为“给出建议”；take action意为“采取行动”；learn a lesson意为“吸取教训”。由第一个人的建议——去植树及第二个人回答OK可知，第二个人觉得对于保护环境来说只说而不“采取行动”是没用的，故选C。
19. B【解析】spend，cost，pay和take四个词都可以表示“花费”。spend和pay用人作主语，pay常与for搭配；cost用物作主语；take常用it作形式主语。问句中主语it（T-shirt）指物，需用cost;答语中pay... for为固定搭配。故选B。
20. C【解析】由常识可知照片能给人们带来很多美好的回忆。bring back使想起。
四、完形填空。
文意概说：本文主要讲述了再利用的重要性。一方面，垃圾需要人类自己清理；另一方面，有些自然资源虽然是丰富的，但并不是取之不尽的。最后，作者呼吁人们行动起来拯救地球。
21. C【解析】句意：在自然界中，每样东西都会被再利用。主语everything与动词use之间是被动关系，故选C。
22. A【解析】句意：当一只动物死后，它会变成另一只动物的食物。another“另一；再一”，符合句意。
23. B【解析】先行词plastic bags是物，且关系词在定语从句中作主语，故定语从句的关系代词用which或that。故选B。
24. A【解析】由主语our rubbish及语境可知，此处应用第三人称单数形式。
25. D【解析】句意：如果我们继续制造太多垃圾，问题将只会变得更加糟糕。if意为“如果”，引导条件状语从句。
26. C【解析】rubbish为不可数名词，故用it代替。
27. A【解析】句意：在地球上，像水和树这样的自然资源很丰富，但这些资源并不是取之不尽的。两分句在语意上是转折关系，故用but。
28. C【解析】由than可知用fast的比较级faster。
29. B【解析】句意：……我们每年砍伐超过6000平方英里的森林。cut down“砍伐”，符合句意。
30. D【解析】It takes some time + for sth. /sb. +to do sth.意为“对某物或某人来说做某事要花费一些时间”。
