三、阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

Rachel Carson (1907—1964) was a pioneer of the worlds environmental movement through her writing about the protection of the natural world. Her book Silent Spring made her well-known to many people in 1962. It describes the harmful effects for the environment of using toxic(有害的) chemicals on farmland.
Carson's career started as a biologist in the US Bureau of Fisheries. In 1951 she published her first book, The Sea Around Us, which became a bestseller. It made her rich enough to leave her job and devote her life to writing. She was a gifted writer. Her next two books were also about the oceans and both topped the book sales lists.
Carson's book Silent Spring completely changed the way Americans thought about nature. It painted a bleak(没有希望的) future for the whole natural world. It led to a nationwide ban(禁止) on the use of DDT, and other toxic pesticides (农药) that farmers used for their crops. Many people say the book led to the creation of the United States Environmental Protection Agency.
Since her death, Carson's name has continued to be connected with protecting the environment. There is now a yearly Rachel Carson Award. Norway awards the Rachel Carson Award to women who have made great contributions to the field of environmental protection. In 1980, 16 years after her death, Carson was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honour in the United States.

Many people know that rubbish is a big problem on the planet earth. What many people don't know is that junk (垃圾) has become a problem in outer space too.
According to BBC News, there are more than 22,000 pieces of space junk floating around the earth. And these are just the things that we can see from the surface of the earth by telescopes (望远镜). There are also millions of smaller pieces of junk that we can't see.
Objects, like bits of old space rockets or satellites, move around the planet at very high speeds, so fast that even a very small piece can break important satellites or become dangerous to astronauts. If the tiniest piece of junk crashed into a spaceship, it could damage the vehicle.
To make things worse, when two objects in space crash, they break into many smaller pieces. For example, when a US satellite hit an old Russian rocket in 2009, it broke into more than 2,000 pieces, increasing the amount of space junk.
To reduce additional space junk, countries have agreed that all new space tools can only stay in space for 25 years at most. Each tool must be built to fall safely into the earth's atmosphere after that time. In the upper parts of the atmosphere, it will burn up.
Many scientists are also suggesting different ways to clean up space junk. In England scientists are testing a metal net that can be fired into space junk. The net catches the junk and then pulls it into the earth's atmosphere to burn up. The Germans are building robots that can collect pieces of space junk and bring them back to earth to be safely destroyed.
"The problem is becoming more challenging because we're sending more objects into space to help people use their mobile phones and computers," says Marco Castronuovo, an Italian space researcher.
"The time to act is now. The longer we leave the problem, the bigger it will become," he says.
1.What does the underlined word "these" in Paragraph 2 refer to
A. Telescopes. B. Satellites.
C. Pieces of space junk. D. BBC News reports.
2.Why is space junk considered a problem
A. It burns up after it re-enters the atmosphere.
B. It often stops the view of telescopes on Earth.
C. It could force new space tools to travel at slower speed.
D. It may crash into other space tools causing damage or death.
3.Countries want future space tools to be able to fall back into the earth's atmosphere so that _____.
A. the tools can be reused later
B. the tools don't become space junk
C. the earth's atmosphere can stay clean
D. the effects of space flight can be studied
4.How do the Germans plan to deal with space junk
A. By catching it with nets.
B. By using robots to collect it.
C. By burning it in the earth's atmosphere.
D. By sending it further away from the earth.
5.In which section of the newspaper would you probably read this article

Who wants to eat food that is thrown away as waste Believe it or not, that's exactly what world leaders did at a lunch held by the United Nations in 2015.
During the meal, the world leaders enjoyed dishes like salads and burgers made with thrown-away vegetables and fruits. Chef Dan Barber, who helped create the meal, hoped that the experience would make the leaders pay more attention to the issue of food waste.
It is a huge problem. One out of nine people on the earth does not get enough food. Yet every year over one third of the food produced worldwide goes to waste!
Why is so much food wasted Firstly, food is often thrown away before it reaches customers because too much of it is produced, or because it is not kept properly in farms. Secondly, shops and supermarkets usually throw away unsold food. Finally, customers often buy more food than they need, so a lot of uneaten food is wasted.
How can you waste less food When eating out, you may ask for less food and take home what is left. Visit fast food restaurants less often, since they are usually more wasteful. Encourage your favourite restaurants to give unsold food to food banks.
You can also waste less food at home. Use smaller rice bowls so that you serve less rice. Encourage family members to use unfinished rice to make rice puddings. Tell family members to make a shopping list and buy only what is on the list when shopping for food.
Food waste is a growing problem and we, either farmers or food sellers or customers, must take this problem more seriously and do what we can to help.
1.What did world leaders do at a lunch held by the United Nations in 2015
A. They threw away food as waste during the meal.
B. They made dishes with waste vegetables and fruits.
C. They ate food made with waste vegetables and fruits.
D. They helped Chef Dan Barber create the special meal.
2.The underlined word "issue" in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _______.
A. result B. problem C. cause D. beginning
3.The writer organises Paragraph 4 by asking a question and _______.
A. giving examples B. using numbers
C. listing reasons D. telling a story
4.Which way of wasting less food is mentioned in the passage
A. Buying unsold food from supermarkets.
B. Keeping food properly in a fridge.
C. Using smaller rice bowls when eating out.
D. Asking for less food in restaurants.
5.Which of the following is TRUE
A. The world leaders enjoyed dishes made by fresh vegetables and fruits.
B. One out of eight people on the earth does not get enough food.
C. We shall visit fast food restaurants more often.
D. We can use unfinished rice to make rice puddings to save food.

The environmental problems are very serious these days. In order to make our country more beautiful, we students should do something to protect the environment.
I think we should turn off the lights to save electricity when we leave the room. And when we brush our teeth, we'd better turn off the taps. Also, we should advise our parents to take the bus to work instead of driving and use reusable bags when shopping. Only if we know what to do in our daily life can we make a difference.
How important for us to protect the environment!
