三、阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

A

Rubbish sorting(分类) probably doesn't sound like much fun. But there is a new mobile game that may change your opinion about it, and you might even learn something while you play it-Meet Sortee.

Meet Sortee is a puzzle game developed by Flow Studio, a UK company. It makes you think deeply about everyday objects(物体) and their meanings.

The rule of the game is quite simple. Two bins are placed on either side of the screen. Each of the bins has a label(标签) next to it and the label explains what it is for. When an object, such as a car or an apple, appears on the screen, you need to decide which bin it should be sorted into and then send it there by moving your finger.

The game seems easy enough at first. But as you move on to more levels, it gets harder. The number of bins increases(增长) to three or four and the time given gets shorter. You need to think and move faster. That can be really difficult.

There are 400 objects in total and more than 100 bins in the game. The more objects you correctly sort, the more game coins 'you can get. It's a bit like working in a rubbish recycling center, but it has no bad smell.

You can download the free game from Apple's app store(苹果软件下载中心) , but it only lets you play the first few levels. If you want to open the next 40 levels, you need to pay 6 yuan for the full game.

( )1. The passage is probably taken from_______.

A. a postcard

B. a newspaper

C. a comic book

D. a novel

( )2. Of the following, which order is RIGHT according to the third paragraph?

①An object appears on the screen.

②You send it by moving your finger.

③Two bins are placed on either side of the screen.

④You decide which bin to sort the object into.

A. ④③①②

B. ①④③②

C. ③①④②

D. ③②④①

( )3. Which of the following can we infer(推断) from the passage?

A. You can play the full game for free.

B. You can play the full game easily.

C. There are only 2 bins in each level.

D. There are over 40 levels in the game.

( )4. The writer of the passage thinks_______.

A. the rule of the game is quite difficult

B

Did you know that each day one person in the US throws away 4. 4 pounds of rubbish? Almost every month, we throw away our own rubbish in packaging alone. Packaging (including boxes, bags, etc) comes to our homes with the things we have bought. Several weeks ago, the TV news said that in a city in Italy, tons of rubbish were piled up in the streets, and the smell was rather terrible. What can we do to help? We should get to know the following Rs.

To reduce means to make less rubbish. That is one of the first things we all should do for the environment. Reduce your rubbish by doing things like packing your lunch in reusable containers (可在利用的容器), taking smaller potions(份) at dinner so you don't waste food when you have had enough, writing on both sides of paper, and using less water when taking a shower.

To reuse is to use things again. Think about the bags you get from the store. They can be reused to carry your lunch, to hold your rubbish, or to collect used cans. You can even take them back to the store the next time to carry your things instead of getting a new bag!

Recycling is an important part of keeping our planet clean and green. It can also save energy. Be sure that you don't throw things in the rubbish that can be recycled to make something else. Paper, plastic, cans and bottles can all be recycled, but food, electrical waste and mobile phones can't. When you are not sure whether something can be recycled, go to your parents and teachers for advice.

Follow the three Rs, and every one of us can do something to save the Earth. It is also the best way to save ourselves.

( )6. The first paragraph of the passage implies(暗示) that_______.

A. packaging should be given up

A. only as rubbish bags

B. only for carrying other things

C. mainly to have a cleaner world

D. mainly to save some money

( )8. Which of the following can be recycled?

A. Food and bottles.

B. Books and newspapers.

C. Paper and mobile phones.

D. Plastic and electrical waste.

( )9. The passage mainly tells us that_______.

A. all useless things can be recycled

B. the environment is greatly improving

C. the three Rs can help us clean the Earth

D. we should never throw any rubbish away

C

Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don't agree with them.

Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources, we are short of others, for example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can I move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.

In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent waste from happening, for example,

turn off the water taps when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we 1eave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.

( )10.Which is NOT mentioned in this passage?

A. Fresh water.

B. Forest.

C. Oil.

D. Coal.

( )11.What may happen in 100 year?

A. We may still have enough oil.

B. We may still have enough coal.

C. We may have a little oil.

D. We may have no coal or Oil to use.

( )12.Which of the following is RIGHT?

A. Waste brings problems.

B. Waste can bring no problem.

C. China is rich in fresh water.

D. Students never waste things.

D

Now more and more parents have their children learn to play music. They think musicians have a lot of advantages. They get much satisfaction from playing music and they can use their skills to make a good living. Now, a new research suggests that musicians benefit in another way：they are better at learning languages.

Some researchers in Hong Kong made the research. It showed that children who were studying music had better memories in learning languages than children who were not. Ninety boys, aged six to fifteen, were tested on their ability to remember words from a list. Half of them were learning to play musical instruments(乐器), while the other half were not. The researchers found that the children who were studying music had much better verbal memory. The longer they studied music, the better their memories were.

Studying music seemed to help the brain develop in ways that helped it process information, although the researchers were not sure why. In any case, improved verbal memory is very helpful to the children, and seems to make it easier to learn foreign languages.

B. P arents think musicians can live a good life.

How to Protect the Environment

There are many problems of environmental problems in recent years. One of the most serious problems is the serious pollution of air, water and soil. The polluted air does great harm to people's health. The polluted water causes diseases and death.

To protect the environment, the government of many countries has done a lot. In my opinion, to protect the environment, first, we should make people realize the importance of protecting environment. Second, much more efforts should be made to put the population planning policy into practice, because more people mean more pollution. Finally, those who destroy the environment should be punished seriously.

We should know destroying environment is the same as destroying human beings.
