“An excellent idea!” the king said.“And then we’ll find a way of getting it back later.”

The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is an area in the ocean which has a huge floating collection of plastic waste.It is located in the North Pacific Ocean.According to some reports, it is around 1.6 million square kilometers in size.This is so big that it now covers an area of the ocean similar to six times the size of the United Kingdom.
Most of the plastic is not large items like bottles or boards.A large percentage of the debris (碎片) is made up of “microplastics” (smaller than 5 millimeters).These microplastics are the tiny pieces of larger items that have been worn down over time.This can be caused by the sun, the waves and even by sea creatures (生物).Items do not just stay floating on the water.Different types of plastics can float just below the water or even much lower down into the ocean.Larger items include fishing ropes and nets that have been lost or dropped at sea.
The largest attempt (尝试) in history is now being made to understand and deal with the problem.Scientists have been counting, weighing and separating every tiny item of plastic collected.Larger items are easier to remove from the ocean than the tiny microplastics.However, if these larger items are not removed, they may break down into smaller pieces.
This means it can stay in the environment for hundreds of years, so every piece of plastic ever produced is still there today.It is also a danger to fish, birds and other sea life because creatures mistake tiny plastics for food.The tiny microplastics take in pollutants which make them poisonous (有毒的) to sea life.Some larger plastics can also hurt creatures.The nets floating in the ocean are known to catch sea life and make it impossible for them to get away.Fish, sea turtles and dolphins are among the creatures in great danger from these “ghost nets”.
Of course, the best solution of all is for us to try to reduce the plastic entering the oceans first.If we want to create less waste to reuse and recycle, then we can reduce the number of new plastics adding to this and other garbage patches.
32.The writer talked about the size of the garbage patch in Paragraph 1 to ________.
A.show how serious the problem is B.guess where plastic waste can be found
C.explain how big the UK’s area is D.discuss how the garbage patch formed
33.The following sentence would be best placed at the beginning of ________.
Plastic is cheap and quite easy to make, however, it is very long-lasting.
A.Paragraph 2 B.Paragraph 3 C.Paragraph 4 D.Paragraph 5
34.What can we learn about microplastics
A.They are from the sea. B.They are easier to clean up.
C.They are the food to the birds. D.They are formed over time.
35.Why is plastic harmful to sea creatures
A.Because larger plastics take their living area in the ocean.
B.Because different types of plastics can get down into the ocean.
C.Because people try to create less waste by reusing and recycling.
D.Because sea creatures may die as they eat polluted microplastics.

Usman Hussain, the owner of the shop, came up with the idea.As for why he made the rule.he said, “I think it’s a nice way to remind people to use their manners.”

“A lot of people can be quite rude in the morning while they’re waking up.But the sign makes them think when they see it.And at the end of the day, you never know what someone is going through to make them act rudely.This sign may help them drop their guard (戒备).” Hussain added.

参考答案
1.D

考查特殊疑问句。Why为什么;Where在那里;What什么;How如何。根据“By underground.”可知,问句是提问方式,用How。故选D。
2.A
【详解】句意:爬过这座山,你就会看到一个美丽的湖。
考查介词辨析。over越过;against倚靠、对抗;opposite在对面;across横跨。根据“this hill, and you will see a beautiful lake.”可知指爬过山,意为翻越,选项A符合。故选A。
3.B
【详解】句意:—— 你对文字处理有什么建议吗?—— 记住,在你点击“保存”图标之前不要退出程序。

4.C
【详解】句意:——我刚刚做了一个测试,现在我很紧张。——你无法改变任何事情。试着喝点咖啡休息一下。
考查情态动词。needn’t不需要; mustn’t禁止; can’t不能; shouldn’t不应该。由“...change anything.Try to get some coffee and have a rest.”可知,此处是在开导对方,让对方不要再想测试了,因为已经结束了,无法再改变它,应用can’t。故选C。
5.D
【详解】句意:—— 你读完《雾都孤儿》这本书了吗? —— 还没有。我已经借了将近一个月了,我打算去图书馆续借。
考查现在完成时延续性和非延续性动词。have bought买;have borrowed借;have had拥有;have kept保持,保留。根据后文“I’m going to the library to renew it.”可知,要去图书馆续借这本书,前一句描述的是这本书已经借过来将近一个月,空处应该填表示“持有,保留”的词,“for nearly a month ”是一段时间,需要和延续性动词连用。故填D。
6.A
【详解】句意:——你听说过“七次跌倒,八次站起来”这句话吗?——是的,这意味着你可能会失败很多次,但你会继续努力实现你的梦想。

9.C
【详解】句意:——想象一下像那些演员和歌手一样富有。那一定很棒! ——你看,这山望着那山高。重要的是你现在所拥有的。
考查习语。the early bird catches the worm早起的鸟儿有虫吃;it never rains but it pours祸不单行;the grass is always greener on the other side这山望着那山高;action speaks louder than words行动胜于言辞。根据“Think about being rich like those actors and singers.It must be great!”和“All that matters is what you have now.”可知,认为那些演员和歌手很富有,条件比自己好,所以此处应用“The grass is always greener on the other side”来形容对方不满足现状,总是羡慕别人,觉得得不到的总是更有诱惑力。故选C。
10.A
【详解】句意:——看来你已经习惯并享受着这里的现代城市生活了。——其实不然。事实上,我喜欢乡村宁静平和的生活。
考查情景交际。Not really不完全是,不见得;Not exactly不完全是这样,并非如此;You got it你猜对了;You bet说对了,当然。根据“you are getting used to and enjoying the life here in the modern city.”和“In fact, I like the peaceful and quiet life in the countryside.”可知,喜欢乡村的宁静平和的时候,说明并不是真的已经习惯并享受着城市生活,也就是纠正对方的看法。故选A。
