How to protect the environment
As we all know, June 5 is the World Environment Day. As high school students, we should contribute to environmental protection.
At present, tail gas pollution is very serious, so we’d better take public transport or ride a bike instead of driving. In addition, plastic pollution is also severe, and what we can do is avoid buying plastic-bottled water. Finally, many places lack water. Therefore, when we don’t use tap water, we should turn off the tap immediately.
Take action now and we will have a great impact on the environment!Period Five Writing
Ⅰ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了空气污染对全球儿童健康造成的严重影响。
1.C 段落大意题。根据第二段“Exposure to air pollution can damage the health of kids in a variety of ways, either causing or being associated with everything from low birth weight to childhood obesity (肥胖) and so on.”可知,第二段主要讲的是空气污染对儿童健康的有害影响。故选C项。
2.A 推理判断题。根据第三段“Although more researches into how air pollution affects children’s health will continue to be valuable, there is already evidence to justify (证明……有理) strong and swift action to prevent the damage it clearly produces…”可推出,世界卫生组织的看法是需要降低空气污染。故选A项。
3.B 细节理解题。根据第四段“Poor countries in these areas have the highest levels of exposure to household air pollution due to the use of polluting fuels and technologies for basic needs like cooking, heating and lighting.”可知,不清洁的烹饪和取暖燃料最有可能导致家庭空气污染。故选B项。
4.B 推理判断题。根据第一段“An astonishing 93% of kids around the world live in environments with air pollution levels that are damaging their health, according to a new report by World Health Organization(WHO).”,第二段“Air pollution is to blame for the deaths of 543,000 kids under 5 in 2016,with more than one in four deaths of children under five years old being related to environmental problems.”以及最后一段“Advised approaches to dealing with air pollution include cleaner transport, cleaner cooking and heating fuels and technologies, energy-efficient housing and urban planning, safer industrial technologies and better waste management.”可知,本文主要介绍了空气污染对全球儿童健康造成的严重影响,据此推断,本文应出自报纸的“环境”版面。故选B项。
Ⅱ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了四种让露营更环保的方法。
1.D 根据上文“‘Leave no track’ is popular among many campers who are concerned about our environment and favour sustainable travel. Its goal is simple:to minimize human-created impacts on the natural world.”和下文介绍的四种让露营更环保的方法可知,文章为总分结构,D项“Learn how to sustainably upgrade the summer camping here.”(在这里学习如何可持续地升级夏季露营。)总领下文内容,符合语境。故选D。
2.E 根据本段主旨句“Reject plastic and paper.”可知,该段主要建议拒绝塑料和纸张。E项“Campers can also buy reusable paper towels in order to genuinely leave no track.”(露营者也可以购买可重复使用的纸巾,这样才真正不会留下任何痕迹。)符合语境。故选E。
3.C 根据上文“Outdoor retail (零售) brands like REI offer a wide variety of camping products to rent, including tents.”可知,上文提到REI等户外零售品牌提供包括帐篷在内的各种露营产品的租赁服务。由此可知,C项“They even carry other outdoor essentials for rent.”(他们甚至有其他户外必需品以供出租。)承接上文,其中的they指代上文中的outdoor retail brands。故选C。
4.A 空处为段落主旨句。通读全段,尤其是根据最后一句“And remember, whatever is packed in should also be packed out.”可知,本段建议打包东西时把对地球的影响考虑在内。A项“Pack with the planet in mind.”(打包时要考虑到地球。)符合语境。故选A。
5.G 根据本段的主旨句“Only camp in designated(指定的) camping areas.”可知,本段主要建议只在指定的露营区露营。空后的句子都与“指定的露营区”相关。G项“Although backpacking off the beaten path sounds fascinating, it may not be eco-friendly.”(尽管在人迹罕至的地方背包旅行听起来很吸引人,但这可能并不环保。)符合语境。故选G。

【思路点拨】 本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了住在沿海城市的玛丽亚和彼得发现塑料袋被扔在海滩上,他们对此很苦恼,决定要做点什么来阻止美丽的大海被污染。于是他们决定通过制作视频、写文章并把它们发在网上来呼吁大家一起爱护环境。视频和文章得到了人们的积极响应。在大家的共同和持续努力下,海岸恢复了美丽。
【详解】
1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“两人很快吃完晚饭,上楼开始计划。”可知,第一段可描写Maria和Peter商量对策,决定通过制作视频、写文章并把它们发在网上来呼吁大家一起爱护环境。
②由第二段首句内容“他们既兴奋又紧张,在网上发布了这段视频和文章。”可知,第二段可描写视频和文章在网上发布后得到的反应以及大家的行动和结果。
2.续写线索:商量—做视频、写文章—呼吁—大家的反应—一起行动—海滩变美。
One possible version:
Quickly finishing their dinner, the pair went upstairs and started planning. Maria and Peter decided to take advantage of the Internet. “Maybe we can write an article to arouse people’s awareness,” Maria proposed. “Good idea! We can also make a video!” Peter added. The next few hours witnessed their heated discussion and growing confidence in a clean and beautiful coast. The next day, they went to the beach and filmed a short video showing plastic bags lying on the beach and floating in the sea. Peter, who was good at writing, wrote an article talking about the present situation of the beach and asking people to take part in the clean-up.
Excited and nervous, they posted the video and article online. To their amazement, their post went viral online immediately. Countless comments flooded in saying how heartbroken they were when looking at the polluted beach and ocean. What amazed Maria and Peter more was that numerous people in their community, encouraged by their efforts, offered to join in their clean-up. More and more people came to the beach to collect plastic bags and they also appealed to others to avoid throwing or using plastic bags. A year later, with their joint and continuous effort, the coast regained its beauty and Maria and Peter regained their long-awaited pleasure.Period Five Writing

You’ll need to take a deep breath before hearing this news. An astonishing 93% of kids around the world live in environments with air pollution levels that are damaging their health, according to a new report by World Health Organization(WHO).
Air pollution is to blame for the deaths of 543,000 kids under 5 in 2016,with more than one in four deaths of children under five years old being related to environmental problems. Exposure to air pollution can damage the health of kids in a variety of ways, either causing or being associated with everything from low birth weight to childhood obesity(肥胖) and so on.
“The diseases and deaths shown by these new data should result in an urgent call to action for the global community—especially for those concerning health,” WHO stated. “Strong action to reduce exposure to air pollution offers a chance to protect the health of children.” The report stressed that health experts should communicate with families, communities and policy-makers about the serious risks of air pollution exposure. “Although more researches into how air pollution affects children’s health will continue to be valuable, there is already evidence to justify(证明……有理) strong and swift action to prevent the damage it clearly produces,” WHO added.
Disease caused by dirty air is more common in low and middle-income countries, especially those in Africa, Southeast Asia, and Western Pacific. Poor countries in these areas have the highest levels of exposure to household air pollution due to the use of polluting fuels and technologies for basic needs like cooking, heating and lighting.
Advised approaches to dealing with air pollution include cleaner transport, cleaner cooking and heating fuels and technologies, energy-efficient housing and urban planning, safer industrial technologies and better waste management.
( )1.What is the second paragraph mainly about

“Leave no track” is popular among many campers who are concerned about our environment and favour sustainable travel. Its goal is simple:to minimize human-created impacts on the natural world. 1.
Reject plastic and paper. First and foremost, one of the easiest ways to reduce the impact of camping on the planet is to go plastic-and paper-free. Instead of single-use plastics and paper plates, choose bamboo or other recyclable camping dinnerware and food packages. 2.
Rent or buy a used tent. Instead of brand-new equipment, consider renting camping equipment instead. Outdoor retail (零售) brands like REI offer a wide variety of camping products to rent, including tents. 3. For those keen on purchasing something new, try brands like Patagonia that put sustainability first to reduce waste and support eco-friendly practices.
4. In addition to eco-friendly tents, it’s good to ensure that other camping essentials, from hiking shoes and sleeping bags to clothing and blankets, are also gentle on the environment. And remember, whatever is packed in should also be packed out.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Maria and Peter lived in a coastal city. The greatest pleasure in summer for them was to swim near their local beach after school. But one day they started to lose their enthusiasm for swimming in the waters. More often than not they would find plastic bags thrown on the beach. Worse still, as they swam in the water, some plastic bags would float around them and even stick to their legs when they walked to the shore.
They were upset and decided something needed to be done to stop the beautiful sea becoming consumed by waste.One weekend,Maria and Peter brought a big bag to the beach and determined to clean it up. Sweat streamed down from their forehead while they bent down and picked up the plastic bags. To their disappointment, after a day’s hard work, there were still many plastic bags lying on the beach or floating in the water. Going home with aching legs and arms, Maria and Peter were almost defeated by a strong sense of failure.
That night over dinner with their parents, the pair ate silently. Noticing their low spirits, Mother asked gently, “You two looked so down. What happened ”Exchanging glances with Peter, Maria replied in a low voice,“It’s those annoying plastic bags. We tried to clean up but it was just impossible.”Understanding the pair’s disappointment, their father patted them on the back and comforted, “Well, it’s really hard for just two of you to fix such a big problem.”“Just two of us,”complained Maria and Peter, looking at each other.Suddenly, an idea flashed through their minds, their eyes shining with excitement.“Yes,that’s the point! We should make more people aware of the problem and encourage them to take action!” the pair said in chorus.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
Paragraph 1:
Quickly finishing their dinner, the pair went upstairs and started planning.

camping areas.”可知，本段主要建议只在指定的露营区露营。空后
的句子都与“指定的露营区”相关。G项“Although backpacking off
the beaten path sounds fascinating, it may not be eco-
friendly.”(尽管在人迹罕至的地方背包旅行听起来很吸引人，但这可
能并不环保。)符合语境。故选G。

[2024·安徽六安一中高二期中考试]
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之
构成一篇完整的短文。
Maria and Peter lived in a coastal city. The greatest
pleasure in summer for them was to swim near their local
beach after school. But one day they started to lose their
enthusiasm for swimming in the waters. More often than not
they would find plastic bags thrown on the beach.
Worse still, as they swam in the water, some plastic bags would
float around them and even stick to their legs when they
walked to the shore.
They were upset and decided something needed to be
done to stop the beautiful sea becoming consumed by waste.
One weekend,Maria and Peter brought a big bag to the beach
and determined to clean it up. Sweat streamed down from their
forehead while they bent down and picked up the plastic bags.
To their disappointment, after a day's hard work, there were still
many plastic bags lying on the beach or floating in the water.
Going home with aching legs and arms, Maria and Peter were
almost defeated by a strong sense of failure.
That night over dinner with their parents, the pair ate
silently. Noticing their low spirits, Mother asked gently, “You two
looked so down. What happened ”Exchanging glances with Peter,
Maria replied in a low voice,“It's those annoying plastic bags.
We tried to clean up but it was just impossible.”Understanding
the pair's disappointment, their father patted them on the back
and comforted, “Well, it's really hard for just two of you to fix
such a big problem.”“Just two of us，”complained Maria and
Peter, looking at each other. Suddenly, an idea flashed through
their minds, their eyes shining with excitement.“Yes,that's the
point! We should make more people aware of the problem and
encourage them to take action!” the pair said in chorus.
注意：续写词数应为150个左右。

【思路点拨】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了住在沿海城市的玛丽
亚和彼得发现塑料袋被扔在海滩上，他们对此很苦恼，决定要做点
什么来阻止美丽的大海被污染。于是他们决定通过制作视频、写文
章并把它们发在网上来呼吁大家一起爱护环境。视频和文章得到了
人们的积极响应。在大家的共同和持续努力下，海岸恢复了美丽。
【详解】
1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“两人很快吃完晚饭，上楼开始计划。”可知，第
一段可描写Maria和Peter商量对策，决定通过制作视频、写文章并把
它们发在网上来呼吁大家一起爱护环境。
②由第二段首句内容“他们既兴奋又紧张，在网上发布了这段视频和
文章。”可知，第二段可描写视频和文章在网上发布后得到的反应以
及大家的行动和结果。
2.续写线索：商量—做视频、写文章—呼吁—大家的反应—一起行
动—海滩变美。
One possible version:
Quickly finishing their dinner, the pair went upstairs and
started planning. Maria and Peter decided to take advantage of
the Internet. “Maybe we can write an article to arouse people's
awareness，” Maria proposed. “Good idea! We can also make a
video!” Peter added. The next few hours witnessed their
heated discussion and growing confidence in a clean and
beautiful coast. The next day, they went to the beach and
filmed a short video showing plastic bags lying on the beach
and floating in the sea. Peter, who was good at writing, wrote
an article talking about the present situation of the beach and
asking people to take part in the clean-up.
Excited and nervous, they posted the video and article
online. To their amazement, their post went viral online
immediately. Countless comments flooded in saying how
heartbroken they were when looking at the polluted beach and
ocean. What amazed Maria and Peter more was that
numerous people in their community, encouraged by their
efforts, offered to join in their clean-up. More and more
people came to the beach to collect plastic bags and they also
appealed to others to avoid throwing or using plastic bags. A
year later, with their joint and continuous effort, the coast
regained its beauty and Maria and Peter regained their long-
awaited pleasure.
