Why do we like drinking water from plastic bottles Some people think it is healthy and clean. Others drink bottled water because it’s easy—you can carry it around with you. In hot countries, like Greece, we often buy bottles of cold water in summer.
However, making lots of plastic is not a good idea for many reasons. First of all, we need a lot of oil for plastic products. We usually use oil as a source(来源) of energy. If we reduced the number of bottles we made, we wouldn’t need so much oil.
Plastic bottles also pollute the environment. If we recycled all our plastic bottles, we wouldn’t need so much space(空间) for rubbish dumps. But in Greece, we don’t recycle much of the plastic we use. In 2006, Greeks recycled only about 10% of plastic waste. The rest became rubbish on land and in rivers and seas.
So next time you want to throw away a plastic bottle in the litter bin, stop and think. If you recycled it, you would help the environment.
But what can you do when there isn’t a recycling bin near you Well, there are lots of useful ways that you can use your bottles again. For example, an empty bottle makes a great piggy bank for your pocket money, and if you cut a bottle in half, you will have a plant pot. Go green! You can make a difference.
11．What is NOT mentioned(提及) about bottled water in this passage ( )
A．It’s expensive. B．It’s clean. C．It’s healthy.
12．Plastic products are made from ______. ( )
A．energy B．oil C．rubbish
13．______ of plastic waste became rubbish in Greece in 2006. ( )
A．10% B．50% C．90%
14．Which of the following is the best way to deal with used plastic bottles ( )
A．To recycle them. B．To make a piggy bank. C．To make a plant pot.
15．The underlined part in this passage “Go green! You can make a difference.” tells us “______.” ( )
A．To make a different life, you’d better go outside

Many animals do strange things before an earthquake(地震).
Some animals make much noise(噪声) before an earthquake. Dogs shout loudly before an earthquake. Horses on farms run around in circles. Mice leave their holes and run away. Cows give less milk. In a small town in Italy, cats raced down the streets in a group. That happened only a few hours before an earthquake. In a city in the US, a man kept some little pet frogs(蛙). One day, the frogs jumped around more than ever. They made loud noise, like big frogs. That night, an earthquake struck the city. People want to know when an earthquake is coming.

Deserts(沙漠) are changing. Sometimes they grow big. Sometimes they get small. The world’s biggest desert, the Sahara, is in Africa. Right now, the Sahara Desert is growing fast.
Why is the Sahara growing In some places, people farm too much. In other places, animals eat all the grass. And also people cut down too many trees. All these make the soil weak. Weak soil lets the desert grow. This is a big problem because people cannot grow plants in the desert. People cannot build houses hospitals or schools in the desert. So they must leave their homes and live somewhere else.
How can we change it Let’s plant more trees and farm less. These can help the soil become strong. Maybe the Sahara will stop growing. All of the people in the world should work together to solve the problem.
