Unit 2 Robots .阅读理解A(2018全国)Adults understand what it feels like to be flooded with objects.Why do we often assume that more is more when it comes to kids and their belongings?The good news is that I can help my own kids learn earlier than I did how to live more with less.I found the pre-holidays a good time to encourage young children to donate less-used things,and it worked.Because of our efforts,our daughter Georgia did decide to donate a large bag of toys to a little girl whose mother was unable to pay for her holiday due to illness.She chose to sell a few larger objects that were less often used when we promised to put the money into her school fund(基金)(our kindergarten daughter is serious about becoming a doctor).For weeks,Ive been thinking of bigger,deeper questions:How do we make it a habit for them?And how do we train ourselves to help them live with,need,and use less?Yesterday,I sat with my son,Shepherd,determined to test my own theory on this.I decided to play with him with only one toy for as long as it would keep his interest.I expected that one toy would keep his attention for about five minutes,ten minutes,max.I chose a red rubber ballsimple,universally available.We passed it,he tried to put it in his mouth,he tried bouncing it,rolling it,sitting on it,throwing it.It was totally,completely enough for him.Before I knew it an hour had passed and it was time to move on to lunch.We both became absorbed in the simplicity of playing together.He had my full attention and I had his.My little experiment to find joy in a single object worked for both of us.【语篇导读】本文是议论文。生活其实不需要过多的外在物质,只要你专注其中,同样可以让你过得充实、精彩。1.What do the words“more is more” in paragraph 1 probably mean?A.The more,the better.B.Enough is enough.C.More money,more worries.D.Earn more and

chair.All broken.It sounds like a pile of things that youd stick in boxes and take to the dustbins.In fact,its a list of things mended in a single afternoon by British volunteers determined to get people to stop throwing things away.This is the Reading Repair Cafe,part of an international network aimed at dealing with a world of rubbish.The helicopter belongs to William who cheerfully describes himself as “mechanically incompetent”.He has owned it for 8 years,but 3 years ago it stopped working and it has been sitting unused in his cupboard ever since.He sits down at the table of Colin Haycock,an IT professional who volunteers at the repair cafe,which has been running for about four years and is a place where people can bring all manner of household items to be fixed for free.In less than five minutes,Haycock has fixed the helicopter and it works well.William looks ashamed;Haycock looks pleased.“I wish they were all that simple,” he says.Today,the repairers will stop 24 kg of waste from going to landfill (垃圾填埋场) and save 284 kg of CO2.Some items cant be fixed on the spot but very little needs to be thrown away.Gabrille Stanley,who used to run a clothing business,says she was drawn to volunteering at the repair cafe to fight the “throw-away culture”.About 300,000 tons of clothing was sent to landfill in the UK in 2016 and a report from WRAP puts the average lifespan
