A
Andrew Holleman, a 12-year-old boy, loved playing in the open land near his home. The land was wet and forested, and made a home for birds, other animals and many different plants.
It made the perfect place for him to study and get to know the nature. He had seen some red-tail hawks, red foxes, wood turtles and other animals. He also found special native flowers.
Suddenly it was announced that the “empty” land would be improved by a lot of houses on it. The plants would be removed, the animals would run away and most would probably die. Then the wet soil would be covered with extra grounds.
When he heard about the news, he was not happy. He was very worried that the land and water would be polluted.
Andrew wrote down clearly all the research he had down about the area, and how the houses would affect the local environment. He sent letters to members of local government and television reporters. He also called on his neighbors to oppose the building of the houses.
Although he was only 12 years old, he had the courage and wisdom of a person much older. Andrew’ s teachers described him as gentle, shy and active. His classmates also admired how much he knew about local animals and plants, and the environment. Each day after school, Andrew went door-to-door, to ask the people to sign, who did not want the houses to be built. In only one month, he got the signatures of 250 people.
In the end, the land remained a safe place for birds, animals and plants that belonged there. Andrew won many prizes for his brave and great work to stop the houses being built, and thus help save the environment.

When your pen is broken, the battery(电池)in your toy runs out, or you have some leftover(吃剩的)food， what do you do with these things You will probably throw them all into one bin. But actually, all kinds of rubbish need to be sorted(分类) separately.

Paper, metal and glass are recyclable waste. Medicine and batteries are harmful waste. Finally, any waste that's not wet, recyclable or harmful will go in the "dry waste" bin. Many other Chinese cities are also doing this. Shenzhen has been sorting its rubbish into the same four groups since 2012. Students there must study waste-sorting guidebooks.
If you don’t sort your rubbish， it will go to a landfill(垃圾填埋场) and be buried together. These landfills can take up large areas of ground.

环保主义者--蕾切尔·卡逊
Rachel Carson(1907-1964)was a pioneer of the world's environmental movement through her writing about the protection of the natural world. Her 1962 book Silent Spring made her well known by many people. It describes the harmful changes in the environment of using toxic(有毒的)chemicals on farmland.
Carson's career started as a biologist in the US Bureau of Fisheries. In 1951, she published her first book, The Sea Around Us, which became a bestseller.

It led to a nationwide ban(禁止) on the use of a deadly chemical called DDT, and other toxic pesticides(农药) that farmers used for their crops. Many people say the book led to the creation of the US Environmental Protection Agency.
Since her death, Carson's name has continued to be connected with protecting the environment. There is now a yearly Rachel Carson Prize. Norway awards the Rachel Carson Prize to women who have made great contributions to the field of environmental protection. In 1980, 16 years after her death, she was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honour in America.

Are you ready to take action to protect Planet Earth You may think it impossible, but you can begin by taking some small, but important, first steps. Many children and their classes in the USA are taking action.
Children Campaign Against Waste Children are paying attention to the packaging(包装) of the things they buy. Packaging includes all the things you throw away when you open up anything new. One third of all rubbish is packaging. Mrs Perez’s 4th grade class decides to make their school and neighbourhood know the waste in packaging. They want people to think before they buy. They also want to let people who make the products know that they want less waste in packaging. So they start a campaign to help people change how they shop.Class Project: Campaign Against Waste◆ Find out the facts. Use the websites to find out how much waste comes from packaging. ◆ Go on a trip to the shops. Take notes about how products, such as CDs, are packaged. Report on how much will be thrown away. ◆ Say no to bags. If we don’t need one, we don’t use one. ◆ Make posters to tell others what they can do. ◆ Talk to our families and friends about what we learn. ◆ Write class letters to the people who produce our favourite products. Ask them to reduce packaging.
Children Save Water Another class decides to help save water. Here’s how they got started. Miguel Salazar lives in Meridien, Texas. Every day he walks home from school and passes Carrollton Creek(小溪). The creek is filled with rubbish. But the creek was not always this way. Miguel’s grandfather remembers flowers and plants grew along it. Many people fished there. So Miguel’s class decides to clean up the creek. They make a plan.Class Project: River Clean Up● Write a letter to the mayor(市长) asking her to let us have a clean-up day at Carrollton Creek. Ask her for garbage cans to keep rubbish. ● Make posters inviting others to help. ● Ask parents to come along and help on Clean-Up Day. ● Choose a day for the big Clean-Up!
If one person can make a difference, think how much more can get done if people work together to care for Planet Earth.

第一节、阅读选择（30分）
A
Andrew Holleman, a 12-year-old boy, loved playing in the open land near his home. The land was wet and forested, and made a home for birds, other animals and many different plants.
It made the perfect place for him to study and get to know the nature. He had seen some red-tail hawks, red foxes, wood turtles and other animals. He also found special native flowers.
Suddenly it was announced that the “empty” land would be improved by a lot of houses on it. The plants would be removed, the animals would run away and most would probably die. Then the wet soil would be covered with extra grounds.
When he heard about the news, he was not happy. He was very worried that the land and water would be polluted.
Andrew wrote down clearly all the research he had down about the area, and how the houses would affect the local environment. He sent letters to members of local government and television reporters. He also called on his neighbors to oppose the building of the houses.
Although he was only 12 years old, he had the courage and wisdom of a person much older. Andrew’ s teachers described him as gentle, shy and active. His classmates also admired how much he knew about local animals and plants, and the environment. Each day after school, Andrew went door-to-door, to ask the people to sign, who did not want the houses to be built. In only one month, he got the signatures of 250 people.
In the end, the land remained a safe place for birds, animals and plants that belonged there. Andrew won many prizes for his brave and great work to stop the houses being built, and thus help save the environment.
26．The passage is mainly about ________.
A．250 people who signed to help Andrew B．a brave boy who cared for the environment

环保主义者--蕾切尔·卡逊
Rachel Carson(1907-1964)was a pioneer of the world's environmental movement through her writing about the protection of the natural world. Her 1962 book Silent Spring made her well known by many people. It describes the harmful changes in the environment of using toxic(有毒的)chemicals on farmland.
Carson's career started as a biologist in the US Bureau of Fisheries. In 1951, she published her first book, The Sea Around Us, which became a bestseller.

Carson's book Silent Spring completely changed the way Americans thought about nature. It painted a bleak(荒凉的) future for the whole natural world. It led to a nationwide ban(禁止) on the use of a deadly chemical called DDT, and other toxic pesticides(农药) that farmers used for their crops. Many people say the book led to the creation of the US Environmental Protection Agency.
Since her death, Carson's name has continued to be connected with protecting the environment. There is now a yearly Rachel Carson Prize.

Are you ready to take action to protect Planet Earth You may think it impossible, but you can begin by taking some small, but important, first steps. Many children and their classes in the USA are taking action.
Children Campaign Against Waste Children are paying attention to the packaging(包装) of the things they buy. Packaging includes all the things you throw away when you open up anything new. One third of all rubbish is packaging. Mrs Perez’s 4th grade class decides to make their school and neighbourhood know the waste in packaging. They want people to think before they buy. They also want to let people who make the products know that they want less waste in packaging. So they start a campaign to help people change how they shop.Class Project: Campaign Against Waste◆ Find out the facts. Use the websites to find out how much waste comes from packaging. ◆ Go on a trip to the shops. Take notes about how products, such as CDs, are packaged. Report on how much will be thrown away. ◆ Say no to bags. If we don’t need one, we don’t use one. ◆ Make posters to tell others what they can do. ◆ Talk to our families and friends about what we learn. ◆ Write class letters to the people who produce our favourite products. Ask them to reduce packaging.
Children Save Water Another class decides to help save water. Here’s how they got started. Miguel Salazar lives in Meridien, Texas. Every day he walks home from school and passes Carrollton Creek(小溪). The creek is filled with rubbish. But the creek was not always this way. Miguel’s grandfather remembers flowers and plants grew along it. Many people fished there. So Miguel’s class decides to clean up the creek. They make a plan.Class Project: River Clean Up● Write a letter to the mayor(市长) asking her to let us have a clean-up day at Carrollton Creek. Ask her for garbage cans to keep rubbish. ● Make posters inviting others to help. ● Ask parents to come along and help on Clean-Up Day. ● Choose a day for the big Clean-Up!

【参考范文】
As we all know, our environment is getting worse and worse . There are many reasons for it. People cut down too many trees and throw rubbish here and there. Factories let out their waste water into the river. This has caused some serious problems. For example, the land is sandy; the river is polluted; even the temperature of the Earth is rising. Also, there are too many cars in the street. The air is polluted and less clean than before.
What shall we do to save her My suggestions are as follows. To begin with, we should plant more trees, put the rubbish into dustbins and stop factories pouring waste into the air or rivers. What’s more, when we go out, we can use sharing bikes or take buses instead of taking cars.
As a student ,we must start small things . At school we can use both sides of paper, at home we also can use used water to water flowers ,it can save energy and be good for our Earth.
We have only one Earth, and we should do everything to protect it, or we’ll regret.
