Energy and resources aren't free. We pay for the energy and resources we use, so saving them is saving money. Moreover, saving energy is good for the environment.
As a student, there are a lot of ways we can do to save energy and resources. We can turn off the lights, the computer, the TV and so on when they are not in use. We can turn off the tap when brushing teeth. We can recycle the waste water, paper and empty bottles so that they can be reused.
Everyone can make a great difference to our environment. If we start learning to use energy and resources wisely, we are helping ourselves.Unit 8 A green world

Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today. People didn't have modern machines. There was no modern medicine, either.
Life today has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution. It's bad to all living things in the world.
Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day. Sometimes the polluted air is so thick that it is like a blanket over a city. This kind of blanket is called smog (烟雾).
Many countries are making rules to stop pollution. Factories must now clean their waste water before putting it into rivers or lakes, and they are not allowed to let out dirty smoke into the air. We need to do many other things. We can put waste things in the dustbin and do not throw them on the ground. Rules are not enough. Every person must help to stop pollution.

When Shanghai introduced a new garbage-sorting policy(垃圾分类政策） in July last year, the city's residents(居民）took some time to get used to it. They joked that every time they took out their garbage, the staff(工作人员）standing by the bins would ask, “What kind of garbage are you ”
Starting on 1 May, Beijing joined many Chinese cities by introducing a new garbage-sorting policy, People's Daily reported. Residents should sort their garbage into four groups: kitchen, recyclable, hazardous（有害的）and other waste.
These groups are represented(代表）by four different colours of trash bins-green, blue, red and gray. Those who fail to sort their trash correctly may be fined(被罚款）up to 200 yuan, Xinhua reported.
Some cities like Shanghai and Qingdao sort their trash differently. These cities use four different groups: wet, recyclable, harmful and dry. Although their names are different, the groups are actually the same. In fact, wet garbage in Shanghai is kitchen garbage in Beijing. And dry garbage is the same as other waste, China Youth Daily reported.
To help residents sort their trash correctly, the Beijing government is offering online guidelines. If people don't know how to throw away garbage, they can search for it on the WeChat account Guanchenglishi(管城理市）to find out. By searching a key word or taking a photo, people can immediately find out which group their waste belongs to.
1. If people don't follow the garbage-sorting policy, _________.
A. they will have to stand by the bins
B. they won't be allowed to throw trash away
C.they won't be noticed
D.they may face fines
2. According to the passage, which of the following cities have the same names for garbage groups
A. Beijing and Shanghai. B.Beijing and Qingdao.
C.Shanghai and Qingdao. D.Qingdao and Wuhan.
3. Kitchen garbage in Beijing is the same as_________.in Shanghai.
A.wet garbage B.dry garbage C.recyclable garbage D.harmful garbage
4. What does the underlined word “guidelines” in Paragraph 5 probably mean
A.参考 B.约束 C.管理 D.指导
5. What do we know from this story
A.Beijing uses four different groups: kitchen, recyclable, hazardous and dry.
B. Garbage-sorting is being carried out all over China.
C. Guanchenglishi can help residents in Beijing with the garbage-sorting.
D.Residents in Beijing are troubled by garbage-sorting.

Did you throw something away today ___1___ But where does our rubbish go
It doesn't just sit in the rubbish bin. Every day, workers come to take the rubbish from our rubbish bins. They put it into a big truck and carry it to landfills(垃圾填埋场）. At the landfill,people sort(分类）the rubbish. They recycle some, burn some and bury(埋）some of it underground. ___2___It means that less rubbish ends up in landfills. Landfills can also be bad for the environment.
So many Chinese cities encourage everyone to sort out their rubbish before throwing it away. Put the food in one bag. Put the plastic bottles in another. And throw them in the right rubbish bins. In this way, we can help save a lot of time, money and energy for the whole society.
___3___ So they have higher recycling rates(比率）. In Sweden, only 4 percent of household waste ends up in landfills every year. In Japan, people recycle nearly 50 percent of all rubbish.
There is still a lot to do when it comes to rubbish sorting in China. People in the country make about 300 million tons of rubbish every year. ___4___ The rest of it ends up in landfills. Most of it is unsorted. The good news is that many cities are trying different ways to make things better. Beijing will start a new program to improve rubbish sorting next year. If people sort out their rubbish, they'll get WeChat bonus points. ___5___

阅读短文, 根据文中信息完成文后表格。(每空-词)
Like many other countries, Britain had serious environmental problems. In 1952, more than 4 000 people died in London because of the smog. The government introduced new laws to stop smog from coal fires and factories and the situation improved a lot. But later, there was a new problem: smog from cars. In December 1991, there was very little wind in London and pollution increased a lot. As a result, about 160 people died from pollution in just four days.
Today, smog is still a problem. Part of the reason is the new“out of town”shopping centres. In the past, people often walked to shops near their homes or went by bus. Many people drive to the new shopping centres now. As a result, the small shops have disappeared and more people have to travel to do their shopping. Critics (批评家) say that Britain needs better and cheaper public transport. Transport in Britain is very expensive. An early morning train trip from Glasgow to London (about 600 km) can cost about 100, for example. A short l5-minute bus trip can cost over 1.
Many people are trying to reduce the use of cars in Britain. Some cities now have special bicycle paths and many people go to work by bike. Some people also travel to work together in one car to reduce the pollution and cost.
