The problems seem so big that its difficult to imagine how individuals (个人) can do anything about them. Rebecca Hosking, however, thought differently.Rebecca is a wildlife camerawoman and she was filming a documentary (纪录片) for the BBC in the Pacific Ocean when she saw something that made her cry hundreds of dead birds that had died because they had accidentally (意外地) eaten the plastic thrown into the sea. People throw tons of plastic into the sea each year! Beaches on Pacific islands that should have been some of the most beautiful places in the world were covered with plastic toys, drinks bottles, pens, cigarette lighters - every plastic thing you can think of.Rebecca decided that she had to do something. Back at home she thought about what she could do to help solve the problem of throwaway plastic. In her hometown of Modbury, she asked local shopkeepers if they could do one thing to help. She asked them to stop using plastic bags in their shops.Plastic bags are used everywhere in Britain every supermarket every corner shop. The numbers are amazing. Britain uses nearly 17 billion plastic bags each year. And the bags can take hundreds of years to break down because they are chemical rather than natural so each year the sea and the environment become more and more polluted.To Rebeccas surprise, the shopkeepers agreed and Modbury became the first plastic bag free town in Britain. Instead, shops offered reusable cotton bags or biodegradable (生物可降解的) bags.Other towns followed Modburys example and towns around Britain and around the world are becoming plastic bag free. It wont solve all of the worlds environmental problems but it shows that people are becoming active and starting to think about how the little things in their daily lives can have a big effect. It also shows us that there is something we can do and that one person can make a big change with a strong enough belief.93.

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题): ( 12分)The little village of Milford in Derbyshire is usually quiet and peaceful and there is almost no crime. However, all this changed in the summer of 1995, when the Potter family moved into No. 16 Church Lane. There was Mr and Mrs Potter, their six children, aged between three and twenty-two, three dogs, several cats and two goats(山羊). The Potter family were noisy: the children played loud music day and night and the animals were never quiet.Dorothy Price lived next door to the Potters. She was an elderly woman who had lived in Milford all her life. At first, the noise didnt disturb her and she told other neighbours that the Potters seemed to be a pleasant family who were always friendly. But as time went by and the noise got worse, Dorothy started to get very upset. One day, she complained to Mrs Potter that the goats had been making a noise all night and had kept her awake. On another occasion, she told Mr Potter to stop running his car engine on Sunday mornings because she couldnt hear her favourite radio programme. A week later, she asked the Potters to stop their dogs from jumping into her garden and making a mess(乱糟糟) in the flower beds. Nothing changed and things went from bad to worse. Dorothy Price decided it was time for action. One night, she went into the Potters garden and gave sleeping pills(药片) to the dogs and goats. For once, she had a peaceful nights sleep, but the following morning all the animals were still asleep. The Potters called the police. When the police officer arrived, Mr Potter told him that Dorothy Price had tried to poison(毒死) his animals the night before and that she was always complaining about his family. Just then, Dorothy appeared at her front door. “The Potters have caused nothing but trouble since they moved in,” she said to the police officer. “Im an animal lover myself, but the way the Potters treat their animals is cruel.” She told him that she had given the animals sleeping pills and said that she was sorry, but in the end she had had no choice; it was the only way she could get a good nights sleep. 93.

The ocean isnt very clean, so the fishermen cant see the fish. However, dolphins can find them easily by using sounds.

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题): ( 12分)My mothers dream of becoming a teacher was interrupted by an unexpected child: me. So she had to leave college to marry my father. Even though my mother left the field of education formally, she did not leave it entirely. That first day of kindergarten, I opened my lunch box, inside which I found a note from my mother written on a napkin(一小块布), saying that she loved me, that she was proud of me and that I was the best kindergartner in the world! Because of that napkin note, I made it through my first day of kindergarten . and many more school days to follow. There have been many napkin notes since the first one. There were napkin notes in elementary school when I was struggling with maths, telling me to “Hang in there. You can do it!” There were napkin notes in high school, when my basketball team was the first team in our schools history to play in a state championship, telling me, “There is no I in team. You have got this so far because you know how to share.” And there were even napkin notes sent to me in college and graduate school, far away from my mothers physical touch. Despite the changes of college, majors, boyfriends, and the way I looked at the world, my mothers encouragement, support and teachings, repeated in years of love and napkin notes.For Christmas this year, my 46-year-old mother was finally going back to school to earn her degree in teaching. I also gave her a Christmas gift for school: a lunch bag filled with her favorite foods. As she opened up her “You can do it!” napkin note to me, tears began running down her face.

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)：(12分)Boys do best with as few girls as possible in English lessons at primary and secondary school, Steven, a research student at Bristol University, will tell the Royal Economic Societys conference. But when it comes to math and science, both boys and girls at primary school achieve up to a tenth of a grade more when there is a high proportion of girls in the class, Steven found. Steven tracked boys and girls test results at the ages of seven, 11, 14 and 16 in 16,000 schools in England between 2002 and 2004 for his PhD. He analyzed the test scores to see whether the proportion of girls in a year group made a difference to the results of both genders (性别) in math, science and English. Boys often get to tenth of a grade worse when they study English with high numbers of girls as opposed to few or no girls, Steven found. The more girls there are in an English class, the worse boys perform. This is particularly the case in primary schools, he discovered. Stevens results show boys should be taught English in single-sex classes. Girls, who outperform boys in English at every stage at school, are unaffected by the number of boys in their English classes. He said: The results say that boys would benefit at all ages from being taught English with as small a proportion of girls as possible. In math and science, the results tend to show that both boys and girls benefit from having more girls in the classroom. A mix of the genders in both science and math is the best. Steven said boys may do worse in English when there is a high proportion of girls in their class because they realized that the girls are better than them. It could also be that teachers use teaching styles more appropriate to girls when there are more girls than boys in the class. Both genders perform better in math and science at primary school when there are more girls in the class because boys tend to break the class rules.93. Will boys do better in English if there are few girls in their class?94. Which age groups did Steven study boys and girls test results?95. What did Steven suggest teaching English to boys at school?96. What is the best classroom teaching style in math and science?97. Why do boys do worse in English when there are more girls in class?98. Do you agree that girls can always do better in study? Why or Why not?8. D.
