On March 20, Keep Alamogordo Beautiful, the Alamogordo Chamber of Commerce and NMDOT District 2 hosted a large-scale community clean-up, drawing around 150 volunteers.
The clean-up spanned the Charlie Lee Memorial Relief Route that runs the length of the City of Alamogordo. The event saw the volunteers provided a total of 300 volunteer hours, which totals $7,407 in volunteer labor. Nearly 4,000 pounds of garbage, equating to 450 bags of garbage, were collected.
Thriving(蓬勃发展)in southern New Mexico, Boys and Girls Clubs of Otero County, the Rotary Club of White Sands, Pioneer Bank, Tularosa Communications, Zuni Electric, Inc., and Holloman Air Force Base all provided volunteers.
“Being a local business owner who was born and raised here, I've seen the growing need for garbage removal along our byways. We live in a great community, but we need to help change the mindsets and culture surrounding garbage. We need to remind folks to bag their garbage, tie it down, and be more responsible,” said Rodney Eaton, president of Zuni Electric, Inc.
“It is our job as community members to limit the lasting footprint we each leave on our community's environment,” says Josh Sides, coordinator of the Keep Alamogordo Beautiful program. “The community clean-up was a much-needed injection(注入) of inspiration to the heart of volunteerism here in Alamogordo. It is important that we all do our part to make Alamogordo a clean, green, and more beautiful place. I cannot thank the Alamogordo community enough for the massive show of support exhibited on Saturday during the community clean-up. This is the first of many to come.”
“The volunteers take much pride in keeping Alamogordo looking beautiful,” said District Two Maintenance's engineer Francesco Sanchez. “During these challenging times as we all try to maintain our highway assets (资产) with fewer funds, we rely on volunteers to help us keep our roads clean and beautiful.”

Most of our everyday plastic items end up in landfill, left to rot away for many years. But some of them were blown away, spoiling the countryside, causing damage to the natural environment and harming wildlife. The problem is most severe in the ocean. Research has found a deserted island in the South Pacific is littered with the highest density (密度) of plastic waste anywhere in the world.
The study described how remote islands act as a “sink” for the world's rubbish. They become collecting points for fishing items and everyday things including toothbrushes, cigarette lighters and razors—things that we throw away. Dr Jennifer Lavers from the University of Tasmania says, “Almost every island in the world and almost every species in the ocean are now being impacted one way or another by our waste.”
This highlights the potentially deadly effect of our disposable (用后即丢弃的) culture. When we throw something away, it doesn't just disappear—it goes somewhere and because of the nature of plastic, it takes a long time to rot away and stays there, causing great damage to the ocean's ecology(生态). And worse still, plastic is broken down into tiny particles over a long period by the wind and the waves, and then sea creatures at the bottom of the food chain swallow them. These creatures are eaten by the fish that we eventually consume.
The solution to this problem would be to use less plastic. Several countries now charge for using plastic carrier bags, which reduces the usage, and some products now use natural and recyclable materials.
8.What does the author really want to tell us in the first paragraph
A.It is a good idea to let plastic items end up in landfill.
B.Plastic items blow away easily in the strong wind.
C.It is a bad habit to throw away plastics everywhere.
D.Plastic pollution in the ocean is a most serious issue.
9.What does the author mean by saying the islands act as a “sink” for the world's rubbish
A.The islands begin to sink with much rubbish on them.
B.The islands have become gathering places for rubbish.
C.The islands are ideal places to hide the plastic products.
D.The islands are inaccessible due to the white pollution.
10.What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A.The impact on sea species.
B.Thrown-away rubbish.
C.The nature of plastic.
D.The ocean's ecology.
11.What's the really frightening fact about the plastic pollution in the ocean
A.Breaking the balance of the ocean's ecology.
B.Causing many sea creatures to die out.
C.Presenting potential risks to our health.
D.Cutting off the food chain of sea creatures.
D
After years of heated debate, gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park. Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park. By last year, the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than 170 wolves.
Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States, but they were gradually displaced by human development. By the 1920s, wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area. They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada, where there were fewer humans around.
The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results. Deer and elk populations—major food sources(来源)for the wolf—grew rapidly. These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation(植被),which reduced plant diversity in the park. In the absence of wolves, coyote populations also grew quickly. The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park's red foxes, and completely drove away the park's beavers.
As early as 1966, biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park. They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems. Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.
The government spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolves. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone. Today, the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at Yellowstone. Elk, deer, and coyote populations are down, while beavers and red foxes have made a comeback. The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.
12.What is the text mainly about
A.Wildlife research in the United States.
B.Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area.
C.The conflict between farmers and gray wolves.
D.The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park.
13.What does the underlined word“displaced”in paragraph 2 mean
A.Tested. B.Separated.
C.Forced out. D.Tracked down.
14.What did the disappearance of gray wolves bring about
A.Damage to local ecology.
B.A decline in the park's income.
C.Preservation of vegetation.
D.An increase in the variety of animals.
15.What is the author's attitude towards the Yellowstone wolf project
A.Doubtful. B.Positive.
C.Disapproving. D.Uncaring.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Ways to Reduce Plastic Waste
Plastic has been found virtually in everything these days. Your food is packaged in it. Your car, phone and computer are made from it. 16 . While most plastics are advertised as recyclable, the reality is that they're “downcycled”.
Luckily, there are simple steps you can take to dramatically decrease the amount of plastic waste you produce.
17
One of the easiest ways to keep plastic out of the landfill is to refuse plastic straws. Simply inform your waiter or waitress that you don't need one, and be sure to state this clearly when ordering at a drive-through. Can't stand giving up the convenience of plastic straws 18 . Restaurant workers will be less likely to bring you a plastic one if they see that you've brought your own.
Use reusable bags
About one million plastic bags are used every minute. A single plastic bag can take 1,000 years to degrade(降解). If you're already bringing reusable bags to the grocery store, you're on the right track. Purchase some reusable bags and help keep even more plastic out of the landfill. However, you should avoid those bags made from nylon or polyester(聚酯纤维). 19 .
Use matches
20 , if you need to light a candle, build a campfire or start a fire for any other reason. These cheap plastic devices can sit in landfills for years and have been even found in dead birds' stomachs. If you can't bear to part with your lighter, pick up a refillable metal one to help cut down on waste.
A.Say no to plastic straws
B.Choose cotton ones instead
C.Don't use plastic containers
D.Choose matches instead of plastic lighters
E.Most restaurants will have no problem with it
F.And you might even chew it daily in the form of gum
G.Purchase a reusable stainless steel or glass drinking straw

The woods are remnants(残余部分) of a huge forest which once covered the whole area, which was designated an area of outstanding natural beauty.
Sitting on a rock and wondering what to do, she began crying. A slight breeze was stirring the branches. The flowers were gently swaying(摇晃) in the breeze. It was quiet around her and she listened to the nice chirping(吱喳叫) of insects, which was waving and faint. After a while, she decided to walk along a wide path lined with tall trees and thick bushes.
When it was getting dark, she saw a small, dark wooden house. Above the cottage the fir trees gently swayed and rustled in the breeze.
She opened the door and cautiously stepped in. Suddenly, she heard a strange noise, and she ran out of the door and back to the woods. She was seized with panic.
She had wandered about long enough to feel too tired to wander any farther. Cold and tired, she fell asleep near a stream.
The girl's parents were out and her dog, Laddy, was at home. Laddy sensed that his mistress(女主人)was in danger. He jumped through a window, breaking the glass. He searched in the fields, but he couldn't find his mistress anywhere.

第一节
One possible version:
Dear Peter,
I'm glad to hear from you. I'm more than happy to share something about garbage sorting in our community.
Living in a nice environment is our common goal. So garbage sorting has been practised in our community. We put wastes into relevant rubbish bins painted in different colors. To be specific, throw harmful wastes such as waste batteries into the red rubbish bin. The blue one is for waste paper and bottles. We throw kitchen rubbish into the green one. Thanks to the effort, our community has been getting cleaner and fresher.
However, garbage sorting in some communities is not as good as expected. To solve the problem, we should strengthen the public's awareness and sense of responsibility for environmental protection. Besides, it is urgent that relevant laws should be introduced.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

Barking loudly into the air, the dog searched through the woods until he found the house. But the girl was not there, so he headed back to the woods. Much to his satisfaction, he saw his mistress's blue shirt in the distance. He flew over some bushes and saw the little stream, by which the girl was asleep.
Paragraph 2:
When she opened her eyes,she saw her dog standing beside her. The girl said surprisedly, “You disturbed me, Laddy.” And she kissed him several times. Laddy together with the little girl went home happily. Seeing their daughter and dog coming back, the parents burst into tears of relief. That night Laddy had a hero's supper, a huge meal of steak. The parents thanked Laddy very much. It was the brave dog that had saved their lovely little daughter.

On March 20, Keep Alamogordo Beautiful, the Alamogordo Chamber of Commerce and NMDOT District 2 hosted a large-scale community clean-up, drawing around 150 volunteers.
The clean-up spanned the Charlie Lee Memorial Relief Route that runs the length of the City of Alamogordo. The event saw the volunteers provided a total of 300 volunteer hours, which totals $7,407 in volunteer labor. Nearly 4,000 pounds of garbage, equating to 450 bags of garbage, were collected.
Thriving(蓬勃发展)in southern New Mexico, Boys and Girls Clubs of Otero County, the Rotary Club of White Sands, Pioneer Bank, Tularosa Communications, Zuni Electric, Inc., and Holloman Air Force Base all provided volunteers.
“Being a local business owner who was born and raised here, I've seen the growing need for garbage removal along our byways. We live in a great community, but we need to help change the mindsets and culture surrounding garbage. We need to remind folks to bag their garbage, tie it down, and be more responsible,” said Rodney Eaton, president of Zuni Electric, Inc.
“It is our job as community members to limit the lasting footprint we each leave on our community's environment,” says Josh Sides, coordinator of the Keep Alamogordo Beautiful program. “The community clean-up was a much-needed injection(注入) of inspiration to the heart of volunteerism here in Alamogordo. It is important that we all do our part to make Alamogordo a clean, green, and more beautiful place. I cannot thank the Alamogordo community enough for the massive show of support exhibited on Saturday during the community clean-up. This is the first of many to come.”
“The volunteers take much pride in keeping Alamogordo looking beautiful,” said District Two Maintenance's engineer Francesco Sanchez. “During these challenging times as we all try to maintain our highway assets (资产) with fewer funds, we rely on volunteers to help us keep our roads clean and beautiful.”

Most of our everyday plastic items end up in landfill, left to rot away for many years. But some of them were blown away, spoiling the countryside, causing damage to the natural environment and harming wildlife. The problem is most severe in the ocean. Research has found a deserted island in the South Pacific is littered with the highest density (密度) of plastic waste anywhere in the world.
The study described how remote islands act as a “sink” for the world's rubbish. They become collecting points for fishing items and everyday things including toothbrushes, cigarette lighters and razors—things that we throw away. Dr Jennifer Lavers from the University of Tasmania says, “Almost every island in the world and almost every species in the ocean are now being impacted one way or another by our waste.”
This highlights the potentially deadly effect of our disposable (用后即丢弃的) culture. When we throw something away, it doesn't just disappear—it goes somewhere and because of the nature of plastic, it takes a long time to rot away and stays there, causing great damage to the ocean's ecology(生态). And worse still, plastic is broken down into tiny particles over a long period by the wind and the waves, and then sea creatures at the bottom of the food chain swallow them. These creatures are eaten by the fish that we eventually consume.
The solution to this problem would be to use less plastic. Several countries now charge for using plastic carrier bags, which reduces the usage, and some products now use natural and recyclable materials.
8.What does the author really want to tell us in the first paragraph
A.It is a good idea to let plastic items end up in landfill.
B.Plastic items blow away easily in the strong wind.
C.It is a bad habit to throw away plastics everywhere.
D.Plastic pollution in the ocean is a most serious issue.
9.What does the author mean by saying the islands act as a “sink” for the world's rubbish
A.The islands begin to sink with much rubbish on them.
B.The islands have become gathering places for rubbish.
C.The islands are ideal places to hide the plastic products.
D.The islands are inaccessible due to the white pollution.
10.What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A.The impact on sea species.
B.Thrown-away rubbish.
C.The nature of plastic.
D.The ocean's ecology.
11.What's the really frightening fact about the plastic pollution in the ocean
A.Breaking the balance of the ocean's ecology.
B.Causing many sea creatures to die out.
C.Presenting potential risks to our health.
D.Cutting off the food chain of sea creatures.
D
After years of heated debate, gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park. Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park. By last year, the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than 170 wolves.
Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States, but they were gradually displaced by human development. By the 1920s, wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area. They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada, where there were fewer humans around.
The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results. Deer and elk populations—major food sources(来源)for the wolf—grew rapidly. These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation(植被),which reduced plant diversity in the park. In the absence of wolves, coyote populations also grew quickly. The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park's red foxes, and completely drove away the park's beavers.
As early as 1966, biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park. They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems. Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.
The government spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolves. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone. Today, the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at Yellowstone. Elk, deer, and coyote populations are down, while beavers and red foxes have made a comeback. The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.
12.What is the text mainly about
A.Wildlife research in the United States.
B.Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area.
C.The conflict between farmers and gray wolves.
D.The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park.
13.What does the underlined word“displaced”in paragraph 2 mean
A.Tested. B.Separated.
C.Forced out. D.Tracked down.
14.What did the disappearance of gray wolves bring about
A.Damage to local ecology.
B.A decline in the park's income.
C.Preservation of vegetation.
D.An increase in the variety of animals.
15.What is the author's attitude towards the Yellowstone wolf project
A.Doubtful. B.Positive.
C.Disapproving. D.Uncaring.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Ways to Reduce Plastic Waste
Plastic has been found virtually in everything these days. Your food is packaged in it. Your car, phone and computer are made from it. 16 . While most plastics are advertised as recyclable, the reality is that they're “downcycled”.
Luckily, there are simple steps you can take to dramatically decrease the amount of plastic waste you produce.
17
One of the easiest ways to keep plastic out of the landfill is to refuse plastic straws. Simply inform your waiter or waitress that you don't need one, and be sure to state this clearly when ordering at a drive-through. Can't stand giving up the convenience of plastic straws 18 . Restaurant workers will be less likely to bring you a plastic one if they see that you've brought your own.
Use reusable bags
About one million plastic bags are used every minute. A single plastic bag can take 1,000 years to degrade(降解). If you're already bringing reusable bags to the grocery store, you're on the right track. Purchase some reusable bags and help keep even more plastic out of the landfill. However, you should avoid those bags made from nylon or polyester(聚酯纤维). 19 .
Use matches
20 , if you need to light a candle, build a campfire or start a fire for any other reason. These cheap plastic devices can sit in landfills for years and have been even found in dead birds' stomachs. If you can't bear to part with your lighter, pick up a refillable metal one to help cut down on waste.
A.Say no to plastic straws
B.Choose cotton ones instead
C.Don't use plastic containers
D.Choose matches instead of plastic lighters
E.Most restaurants will have no problem with it
F.And you might even chew it daily in the form of gum
G.Purchase a reusable stainless steel or glass drinking straw

One cloudy afternoon, a seven-year-old girl went for a walk. She crossed a large area of grassland into the woods before she realized that she was lost.
The woods are remnants(残余部分) of a huge forest which once covered the whole area, which was designated an area of outstanding natural beauty.
Sitting on a rock and wondering what to do, she began crying. A slight breeze was stirring the branches. The flowers were gently swaying(摇晃) in the breeze. It was quiet around her and she listened to the nice chirping(吱喳叫) of insects, which was waving and faint. After a while, she decided to walk along a wide path lined with tall trees and thick bushes.
When it was getting dark, she saw a small, dark wooden house. Above the cottage the fir trees gently swayed and rustled in the breeze.
She opened the door and cautiously stepped in. Suddenly, she heard a strange noise, and she ran out of the door and back to the woods. She was seized with panic.
She had wandered about long enough to feel too tired to wander any farther. Cold and tired, she fell asleep near a stream.
The girl's parents were out and her dog, Laddy, was at home. Laddy sensed that his mistress(女主人)was in danger. He jumped through a window, breaking the glass. He searched in the fields, but he couldn't find his mistress anywhere.

One possible version:
Dear Peter,
I'm glad to hear from you. I'm more than happy to share something about garbage sorting in our community.
Living in a nice environment is our common goal. So garbage sorting has been practised in our community. We put wastes into relevant rubbish bins painted in different colors. To be specific, throw harmful wastes such as waste batteries into the red rubbish bin. The blue one is for waste paper and bottles. We throw kitchen rubbish into the green one. Thanks to the effort, our community has been getting cleaner and fresher.
However, garbage sorting in some communities is not as good as expected. To solve the problem, we should strengthen the public's awareness and sense of responsibility for environmental protection. Besides, it is urgent that relevant laws should be introduced.
Yours sincerely,

第二节
One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
However, from the ground came a familiar scent(气味) as he lowered his head. He followed the scent and walked across the grassland. Barking loudly into the air, the dog searched through the woods until he found the house. But the girl was not there, so he headed back to the woods. Much to his satisfaction, he saw his mistress's blue shirt in the distance. He flew over some bushes and saw the little stream, by which the girl was asleep.
Paragraph 2:
When she opened her eyes,she saw her dog standing beside her. The girl said surprisedly, “You disturbed me, Laddy.” And she kissed him several times. Laddy together with the little girl went home happily. Seeing their daughter and dog coming back, the parents burst into tears of relief. That night Laddy had a hero's supper, a huge meal of steak. The parents thanked Laddy very much. It was the brave dog that had saved their lovely little daughter.
