From the first day to the graduation day, my school days are a vivid recollection (生动的回忆) in my memory. Whenever a friend from school contacts (联系) me, I am taken back to those happy days of my life.
My school days were a treasure box of valuable lessons and experiences. I made many good friends at my school. I experienced social skills first-hand. I was taught how to read, write and think critically (批判地). I learned to play sports and exercise to keep healthy.
My teachers and my classmates helped me. My teachers taught me much of what I should know about life. They shared their experiences and guided me. They were my models of success which I was thirsty for. They helped me in discovering my life’s path. They supported, encouraged and inspired me a lot. My classmates were an immense blessing as well. My classmates were my true partners in all moments of life. They raised me up when I couldn’t stand up, they cheered me up when I was down, and they helped me stay on track with class progress when I got sick. I could never have made it through my school days without their friendships.
All these experiences made my school days golden in my life. I will never forget those happy days.

In order to create paper and other wood products, people cut down millions of trees each year. So we should try our best to save paper to protect our environment. One useful way is to find paper substitutes. Here are some things that can replace paper products.
Use reusable cloths instead of paper products. Around the house, a lot of paper is wasted every year on things like paper towels. If you use lots of paper products for cleaning and drying, you can save plenty of paper by using reusable cloths.
Use real dishes instead of paper. Paper dishes may be convenient, but they aren’t good for the environment. Most paper plates just end up in the dustbin, meaning the paper isn’t even recycled properly. When you have a party or any time paper plates come out, ask people to use the real dishes instead.
Use your own cup instead of paper cups. Throwaway (一次性使用的) paper cups from coffee shops and restaurants are another way that lots of paper is wasted every year. Like paper plates, many paper cups end up in the dustbin and being hard to recycle. Why not use your own cup It’s green and healthy.
Send e-cards instead of paper cards. Lots of people like to send greeting cards for birthdays, holidays and other events, and this leads to plenty of paper waste. Not only the card itself is paper, but also it’s sent in a paper envelope. Instead of sending paper greeting cards to all your friends and family in the mail, send e-cards for future celebrations.
25.What does the underlined word “substitutes” in Paragraph 1 mean
A.日用品 B.半成品 C.替代品

A.Most paper plates end up being wasted.
B.Real dishes are convenient and used widely.

B.teach people how to use paper products less
C.tell people the problem the earth faces
28.What’s the correct structure of the text (P1= Paragraph 1)
A. B. C.

From road traffic to flying planes, noise is everywhere. 29 In response (作为回应), these monkeys are making a stink (难闻的气味)!
Pied tamarin monkeys live in the city of Manaus in central Brazil. It has areas of forest. 30 The city’s increasing noise has affected how pied tamarin monkeys communicate with each other. That’s according to a study published in the journal Ethology Ecology & Evolution. The research, led by scientists from Brazil’ s Federal University of Amazonas and Anglia Ruskin University in the UK, is the first to study how primates change their ways of communication in response to noise pollution, reported Science Daily. They looked at the behavior of nine separate groups of wild pied tamarin monkeys. 31 They discovered that the most common source of human-made noise was road traffic. There was also noise pollution from park visitors, aircraft and military activities.
32 They call out to each other to find mates, find food and warn each other of danger. It’s useful in the forest areas of Manaus. They also use scent markings (气味标记) to pass on information. But with all the human-made sounds, the animals have to depend more on scent to communicate. 33
One of the study’s writers, Jacob Dunn, said, “The increased use of scent markings by pied tamarin monkeys shows that they are adapting (调整) their behavior in response to city noise.”
A.For some monkeys in Brazil, that noise is too much.
B.Now it’s time for us to do something to protect them.
C.Pied tamarin monkeys communicate for a number of reasons.
D.And then they followed each group for 10 days using radio tracking.
E.But as the city has grown bigger, they have less and less room to live.
F.Because their sounds can be hard to hear over all the human-made noise.

六、短文填空
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的词或括号内单词的正确形式。
We produce a lot of rubbish every day. Where does all the rubbish go Scientists have made an upside-down pyramid of the different ways 44 (deal) with rubbish.
In cities, you seldom see rubbish in open areas 45 people usually collect rubbish and send it to landfills (废物填埋场). In some landfills, waste is treated to make it less 46 (harm) before it’s put underground. Once a landfill is full, people cover it with soil 47 (safe). A park or playground can then be built on top of it.
Another way to deal with rubbish is to burn it. This produces not only energy but also awful gases. In some places, these gases are 48 (clean) before they are let off.
In the middle of the pyramid is recycling. This means using rubbish to make new 49 (product). For example, people break up waste paper and mix it with water to make new paper.
50 (reuse) is another effective way to deal with rubbish. This means using “waste” in another way. Buying or selling second-hand things online is 51 good example.
Waste prevention is at the top 52 the pyramid. It means not producing rubbish in the first place. For example, say no to throwaway plastic cups at the very 53 (begin). Choose glass instead! You can use it over and over again.
七、书面表达
54.初中三年即将过去,回顾这段时光,你是否有许多难忘的回忆,也有很多感慨?假定你是李华,你校英文报向初三学生征集稿件,题为“写给自己的一封信”,请你结合下表内容写一份稿件投稿。
