Away from the bright lights of the city, if you look up at the night sky you will see an ocean of bright stars. But in the city jungles we humans have built ourselves, it’s a different story.
This year, Earth Hour fell on March 26. The annual tradition was created to raise awareness for climate change. Those celebrating turn off all their electrical appliances (家用电器) for one hour. It also draws attention to another serious problem that the world is currently facing the threat of light pollution.
Light pollution happens when too much man-made light harms nature. Scientists have found that it is especially harmful to animals which are active at night. These creatures rely on the natural light cycle provided by the movement of the sun to help coordinate (协调) their sleep cycles. When this is disturbed by constant bright lights from man-made structures, it can seriously disorientate (使失去方向感) the animals and harm their physical health. “Wild life animals have lived on this planet with biological rhythms changing that has very great effects,” said Travis. A lack of darkness at night can also cause difficulties for animals in other ways.
Newly hatched (孵化) baby sea turtles rely on the brighter horizon over the ocean to guide them from the beach to the sea. However, with man-made light next to the oceans, the small animals are easily led away from the right path. “Hatchlings are attracted to lights and crawl inland, or crawl aimlessly down the beach, sometimes until dawn, when predators (天敌) or birds get them,” said Michael Salmon, a biologist at Florida Atlantic University.
Man-made light has caused “drastic (激烈的) change” to the natural environment of animals, research scientist Christopher Kyba told the International Dark-Sky Association. “Predators use to hunt and prey (猎物) animals use darkness as cover,” Kyba explained. If a predator has such advantage in hunting its prey, this can lead to an imbalance in ecosystem as the hunted animals no longer able to maintain their population when they become over-hunted.
21．Why was Earth Hour created
A．To raise awareness of air pollution.
B．To call on people to get closer to nature.
C．To draw public attention to environmental problems.
D．To reconsider the necessity of electrical appliances.
22．How does light pollution affect animals which are active at night
A．It slows down their flight speed.
B．It changes their sleep cycles.
C．It reduces their dependence on the sun.
D．It reduces their difficulties caused by darkness.
23．What trouble does man-made light cause baby sea turtles
A．It can prevent them from reaching the ocean.
B．It can affect their biological rhythms.
C．It makes them lose their way to the beach.
D．It makes them be caught by birds difficultly.
24．Which one would be the best title
A．Earth Hour This Year B．Take Action to Protect Wild Animals
C．City Jungles We Built D．Reduce Light Pollution to Keep Balance
B

九、材料作文
Dear teachers and fellow students,
Do you want to live in a beautiful world As we all know, we have only one earth and we can have a healthier life if the environment is good. So it is our duty to save and protect the earth.
To reach this goal, we should keep the following in mind. First, stop using cars. Walking to school is a good way to reduce pollution. Second, we should plant trees every spring to protect the soil from being washed away. Third, it’s also important to sort the rubbish, which can turn waste into treasure. Finally, remember to turn off the water taps after finishing washing and turn off the lights when leaving the classroom.
In a word, I hope everyone can play a part in protecting the environment. Only when we form the good habit of environmental protection can we make the earth more beautiful tomorrow.
