It’s very important that we all recycle (再利用). In nature, everything 12 again. For example, when an animal dies, it becomes 13 animal’s food. Nothing is wasted. But humans have created things like plastic bags 14 can’t be broken down by nature. Our rubbish kills animals and 15 water and soil. 16 we continue making too much rubbish, the problem will only get worse. If nature can’t reuse the rubbish, we must recycle 17 .
We should clean up the rubbish we’ve made because nature can’t.
Recycling is also the right thing to do for another reason. The earth is rich in natural materials like water and trees, 18 these materials are not endless. We use up our natural materials much 19 than the earth is able to reproduce them. For example, each year we cut 20 more that 6,000 square miles of forest. But it takes an average of 25 years for a new tree 21 .
Recycling can help us save the earth, so let’s take action right now.

Terrible weather events are harming the planet, and experts warn of even greater results to come. The sea ice loss and the Arctic ice melting (融化) caused by climate change have increased much in the last ten years. So they have pushed down the number of polar bears and seals while polar bears depend on sea ice for hunting seals.
According to the data from the WMO, temperatures on the Antarctica (南极洲) just hit 18.3℃, which is higher than the record of 17.59℃ in March, 2015. Moreover, temperatures in this area have warmed about 3℃ over the last 50 years. Although such temperatures might be considered pleasant for a picnic or a hiking trip, this is the Antarctica we are talking about. It is home to the most inhospitable environment on the planet because it is supposed to be an extremely cold place. In fact, the average temperature of the continent’s central area is -57℃.
Besides, many places are experiencing the extreme weather this summer. Australia is undergoing its worst drought (干旱) since the 1930s, leaving bushfires burning so long and causing many deaths. Meanwhile in Europe, crops in the northwest are suffering the driest weather in the past 80 years. Recently West Texas in America has also gone through its worst drought in more than 70 years, while floods have hit Eastern and Southern China.
“Climate change is bad for us human beings, which causes direct health problems. I’m afraid there will be more common events like the one that 30,000 to 50,000 persons died in Europe in 2003 due to the heat wave there,” Professor Schwartz said. “It will also cause more air pollution, diseases and lack of clean water and so on.”
32．What doesn’t bring down the number of polar bears according to this passage
A．Hunting. B．Climate change. C．The sea ice loss. D．The Arctic ice melting.
33．What can we get from this passage
A．The Antarctica is pleasant for a hiking trip.
B．Extreme weather led to wildfires burning in Europe.
C．Climate change will cause air pollution and diseases.
D．The temperatures on the Antarctica hit the highest in March, 2015.
34．What does the underlined word “inhospitable” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A．Friendly to live. B．Unfit to live. C．Comfortable to live. D．Unhealthy to live.
35．Which place didn’t experience drought this summer
A．America. B．China. C．Australia. D．Europe.
36．What is the main idea for this passage
A．The whole planet is drier and drier.
B．The Antarctica is warmer and warmer.
C．Climate change is getting worse and worse.
D．The number of polar bears is smaller and smaller.
Upcycling is the process of changing old materials into something useful and often beautiful.
So, is it the same as recycling No. Recycling takes materials -paper or glass-and breaks them down so their base materials can be reused to make a new product. When you upcycle an item, you are not breaking down the material, you are simply refashioning it. For example, you might make shoes out of old tyres. Also, the upcycled item is typically of the same, or even better, quality than the original(原来的).
Upcycling isn't a new idea. Some of the best examples of modern-day upcycling come from the 1930s to 1940s when families didn't have enough materials. In those days, things were repurposed over and over until there were no longer useful. For example, an old door can be changed into a new dining table. Saving is still a trend(趋势)today and a big reason why more and more people upcycle. But an even bigger reason for the rebirth of upcycling is its good influence on the environment.
Upcycling is green. The plain and simple fact of the matter is that upcycling is much better for the planet than throwing things away. When you upcycle, that's one item less that ends up on the waste mountain. Upcycling is also considerably more environmentally friendly than recycling, which needs energy or water to break down materials. Upcycling just needs your own creativity and effort. For example, Grace Robinson, from the UK, takes used tea bags and turns them into dresses, shoes and even hats.
There are two ways to support the upcycling movement. Sort through your recycling bins and create items yourself, or buy ready-made items from upcycled materials. Both ways do good to the environment and in returm, you get something that's both attractive and practical.
37．What can we know about upeycling according to the passage
A．It can improve the qualiny of items. B．It needs more energy than recycling.
C．It needs to break down base materials. D．It produces more waste than recycling
38．The underlined word "refaslioning" in Paragaph 2 probably means"_______".
A．giving a new form B．giving a fashionable name
C．making a perfect copy D．making a chemical change
39．We can learn from the passage that_______.
A．recycling needs people to be more creative
B．it is important to help others to upcycle
C．it is not difficult for us to upcycle clothes
D．upcycling is much greener than recycling
40．What'sthe best title for the passage
A．Get started to recycle today B．A modern trend: upcycling
C．Is upcycling the same as recycling D．To recycle or to upcycle

52． Great changes have taken place since I was born.
Fifteen years ago, most people rode bikes when travelling for a short distance. Because there weren’t many cars, the air was fresh. And people kept in touch with each other mainly by telephone.
Now, many people own cars as well as cellphones which are widely used to chat on QQ, do shopping, etc. Lives seem easier than before, but too many cars make traffic heavier, and air pollution is getting worse.
To live a better life, we still have a lot to do.
