三、阅读单选
（一）
London used to be “foggy” for the same reason that cities like Beijing or Chongqing are “foggy” today. In fact, the “fog” was smog, a mixture (混合物) of smoke and fog. In other words, it was made by air pollution. In London, some of this pollution came from factories, but much of it came from the coal that people burnt in their houses to keep warm during the winter. By the 1950s, London’s smog problem had become so bad that the government decided to do something to clean the air. A new law was made and nobody could burn coal in any British city. Within a few years, the air became much cleaner. There were no more “pea-soupers”.
Many Chinese cities now face the same kind of problem of air pollution that London faced 40 or 50 years ago. However, this problem is more difficult for Chinese cities to solve. One reason is that more of the pollution comes from the factories, rather than from coal burnt in people’s houses. If these factories were closed, this would harm the economy and lots of people would lose their jobs. Another reason is that changing from coal to cleaner fuel(燃料), like gas, is quite expensive.
However, the air in many Chinese cities is becoming cleaner and cleaner, as the government and people pay more and more attention to cutting down pollution. As a result, there are fewer “pea-soupers” in Beijing than there used to be.
36．What was the main reason for air pollution in London
A．There was too much smoke in the sky. B．There were too many factories in the city.
C．People burnt too much coal in the houses. D．Lots of people smoked at home.
37．How did the air in London become much cleaner
A．There was not so much fog in the winter later.
B．A law was made to stop people from burning coal in their houses.
C．Many factories in the city were closed.
D．Some of the factories moved away.
38．What does the underlined word “pea-soupers” refer to (指)
A．Coal. B．Smoke. C．Gas. D．Smog.
39．How many reasons make it more difficult for Chinese cities to solve the problem of air pollution
A．One. B．Two. C．Three. D．Four.
40．Which of the following sentences is not true
A．Using coal is much more expensive than using gas.
B．Factories made much more pollution in China.
C．The reasons for air pollution in London and Beijing are different.
D．The Chinese government has taken action to cut down air pollution.
（二）
ENVIRONMENT
In an effort to create a cleaner, prettier city, the Beijing government has upgraded its waste treatment process as well as related construction projects and facilities to improve the local environment,CHINADAILYreported.
Ma Jin, who lives near a refuse transfer station in the ZhouzhuangJiayuan community in the capital’s Chaoyang district, said he used to suffer from the noise caused by garbage trucks traveling to and from the station as well as bad smells. After upgrades were made at the Xiaowuji station in 20l7, “The noise and smell both disappeared, “he said. “The best thing is that the station has provided cleaning services for all the streets nearby. Thus, we have a much better environment.”
Li Zhongxu, who has lived in the community since 2015, said he used to complain to authorities because the terrible smell prevented him from opening his windows.
“I’m glad that the government has heard us and has made a difference, which is even better than our expectations,” Li said. Many people from different departments have played a role in such upgrades.
Cai Huashuai, the head of the facility department said Beijing has nine refuse transfer stations with a total treatment capacity of 11, 200 tons a day. Xiaowuji can process 2, 000 tons a day.

七、讲稿
As we all know, China makes every effort to protect the environment. As middle school students, we should take the responsibilities. We can reuse, reduce and recycle.
During the winter vacation, I collected used things like paper and bottles. I turned them into a hand-made rocket. I gave it to my brother as a gift. He felt amazed at my work. I was proud, too. The waste was brought back to life with just a little creativity.
Inspired by this experience, I plan to do more in the future. First of all, I’ll continue to reuse things instead of throwing them away. Secondly, I will reduce the use of energy. I can ride a bike to school instead of taking a bus, and turn off the light when not using it. Lastly, I’ll sort the rubbish and send the recyclable materials to recycling center.
If everyone takes part in protecting the environment, the earth will be a better place for all of us to live on. Take action now!
