thats one less plastic toy car that they need to buy. its also one less plastic toy that needs to be produced, packaged and shipped to the toy store.here are some other ways to help save resources (资源)for the society: use the other side of the paper.use rechargeable (可再充电的) batteries for your electric toys, mp3 players, cell phones, and cameras. choose reusable travel cups instead of disposable (一次性的) paper or plastic cups. take your own cloth shopping bags when you go shopping. drink tap water instead of buying bottled water.and there are some things you can exchange with your friends, for example, books, toys, even clothes. its a way for everyone to get something new without spending any money and without throwing many things away. 1the underlined word ours in the passage refers to (指代) _.a. our society b. our old thingsc. our life d. our throwaway things 2according to the writer, if we give a second - hand toy car to a neighbor kid, we can_.a. buy another new one b. help toy business developc. make the family very thankful to us d. help save resources for the society3 which of the following is not true according to the passage?a. we should buy things that can be reused in our daily life.b. we can exchange some things with others for further use.c. its good for us to throw away old things and buy new ones.d. we are supposed to give the things we no longer need to our neighbors. 4what should we do in our daily life after reading the passage?a. try to throw as few old things as we can.b. use as many disposable things as possible.c. drink bottled water even though there is tap water around.d. buy everything we need instead of exchanging them with others.dtaking away a citys rubbish is a big job. every day trucks come into a city to collect it. most rubbish is made up of things we cant eat or use. if we kept these things we would soon have a mountain of rubbish.in some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of the city to a dump(垃圾站). often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole. the kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage system. the sewage system takes away the used water from toilets, bathtubs(澡盆) and other places.to keep mice and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. finally, a house or a school may be built there, and then youd never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump.in other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places. the fire burns everything but the metal. sometimes the metal can be used again in factories where things are made of metal. the food parts of rubbish are put in special piles where they slowly change into something called humus(腐殖土), which looks like black earth. it is rich with kinds of things that feed plants and help make them grow.1you can most probably read the passage in _.a. a history bookb. a tv guidec. a science bookd. a telephone book2the underlined word “sewage” in the passage means_.a. 排污b. 染色c. 洗涤d. 吸尘3according to the passage, the food parts of rubbish can be used again_.a. to feed animalsb. to feed plantsc. to build a house d. to make machines4how should we take care of a used metal box according to the passage?a. by burning it off.b. by putting it in water.c. by throwing it away.d. by reusing and recycling it.第ii卷（非选择题）四、单词拼写根据汉语写出英文单词。1. at _ (周末), my
