“When it comes to the Earth, there is no time to waste.” says the Earth Day Network. And that is right. Protecting our environment is very important, and World Earth Day was created in 1970 to ask more people to protect our environment. On April 22, people around the world celebrate Earth Day.
Every year there is a special topic, and this year it is “Trees for the Earth”, so Earth Day this year will be all about planting trees. They are planning to plant 7.8 billion trees within the next five years.
That’s a big goal, and you might wonder why trees are so important. Because they can take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and protect the air quality (质量). CO2 is a chemical in our atmosphere, but humans make too much of it. Each person makes about 2.3 tons a year, which is bad for the environment.
Well guess what! Planting new trees is important because people cut down a huge number of trees. Last year, there were 3 trillion trees in the world, about 139 billion in China. But according to China Daily, the world’s total number has been almost cut in half since human civilization (文明) began. That’s because 15 billion trees are cut down every year.
So we need to plant more to make up for (弥补) the ones we lost. One tree can take in 21.8 kilograms of CO2 per year. And it’s still one of the cheapest and best ways to get rid of CO2.
But don’t forget that we can also help the environment by cutting down on how much energy (能源) or water we use every day. Every little thing helps.
根据短文内容，回答问题（66-69），英译汉（70）。

Why is clean water so important to developing countries A recent report shows that about 80 percent of diseases in developing countries are caused by poor water and low sanitation (卫生) conditions. In those countries, women and girls spend several hours collecting water, but often polluted, far away from their families. The polluted water more or less influences their health. In this case, there is an urgent (迫切的) need for people in developing countries to have access to (有机会或权利使用) clean water to improve their health.
Here is a short story about Hadjara Zakari, a 12-year-old girl in Niger. Having access to clean water changed her life. She learned about the importance of hand-washing when the school first received clean water three years ago. That evening, she told her father, “You shouldn’t eat with me unless you clean your hands.” Her father was very angry and shouted at her, “It’s not up to you to tell me what to do!” Stunned (目瞪口呆的), Hadjara sat in silence. But she knew she was right. In protest, Hadjara refused to eat dinner that night. After her father questioned Hadjara’s head teacher, he understood the importance of hand-washing and his daughter’s intentions (目的). The girl really wanted her family to live longer and healthier lives.
For people in developing countries, clean water can change many things, especially improve their health. So, from now on, let’s avoid wasting water and take action to save water, which is important to people all over the world.
( ) 6. According to the recent report, poor water and low sanitation conditions can cause _______.
A. traffic problems B. forest fires C. many illnesses
( ) 7. The key to improving people’s health in developing countries is ______ in Paragraph 1.
A. to get clean water B. to exercise often C. to refuse drugs
( ) 8. What can we infer (推断) from Paragraph 2
A. Hadjara laughed at her father’s foolishness.
B. Hadjara refused to eat dinner that night in order to lose weight.
C. Hadjara’s father understood his daughter’s love and care for him later.
( ) 9. The underlined word “protest ” in this passage means _______.
A. 抗议 B. 保护 C. 节约
( ) 10. The purpose of the writer is to _______.
A. teach people how to wash hands
B. call on people all over the world to save water
C. show developing countries rich in clean water

Pollution inside homes and other buildings kills more than 4 million people each year. Many people die as a result of breathing smoke or from cooking over wood — powered of coal — powered stoves.
One way to reduce the number of deaths is through cooking equipment powered by the sun. Crosby Menzies, a solar power expert in a South African company, described his latest solar cooker called the “Sol. 4”, “It is four square meters of mirrors, six to eight meters in length. It is quite a large cooler.”
The “Sol. 4” works by reflecting (反射) light from the sun off large mirrors. The mirrors direct (把……对准) the light at a cooking pan. Then the light heats the pan with solar energy. Within two minutes, the pan is hot enough to cook sausages and onions. In just four minutes, water can be boiled. That is as fast as cooking with natural gas or electricity.
The cooker is also much “friendlier” than other models because people do not have to stand in the sun to use it. And people can prepare meals without having to collect firewood or spend money on coal. Such individuals would be less likely to have breathing illnesses from harmful smoke.
At present, the cooker only works when the sun is shining. But engineers are working on a way to make it work without sunlight.
Each cooker costs about $2000, which is a large amount of money for most Africans. To solve that problem, Crosby Menzies has created a non-governmental organization called solar Cookers for Africa. It plans to raise money through donations to provide poor people with solar cooking equipment.
( ) 16. This passage is mainly about _______.
A. solar cookers B. smoke pollution
C. solar power experts D. breathing illnesses
( ) 17. The “Sol. 4” is mainly used to _______.
A. shorten the time of cooking
B. reduce the cost of making cookers
C. raise money through donations to help African people
D. reduce the number of deaths caused by harmful smoke
( ) 18. The underlined word “individuals” most probably means _______.
A. cookers B. mirrors C. people D. experts
( ) 19. Which of the following about the “Sol. 4” is TRUE _______
A. It is six to eight square meters of mirrors．
B. It can work in any weather condition now
C. It can also heat the pan by lighting firewood
D. It is more environment-friendly than other cookers．
( ) 20. From the passage, we can infer that _______.
A. the “Sol. 4” will be designed in a smaller size
B. more African can use the solar cookers in the future
C. the “Sol. 4” is the first product of the South African company
D. the African government will provide poor people with solar cookers．
