Problems like ice melting, electronic waste are lighting up news programs and becoming part of an ongoing dialogue about the environment.As a teenager, what do you think all the problems mean for your future and for the future of the planet?

Use one of them to make a personal essay.The title of the essayWhen you hand in your essay, title it as: Environmental Problems：_. Include the phrase “Environmental Problems” as the beginning of your essay title, but then make the rest of your story title unique. Examples：Environmental Problems: Trashy Behavior and the Plastic BottleEnvironmental Problems: We Cant Exist If We Refuse to ChangeRules：(1)This is a nonfiction essay contest.(2)Essays are 500 words or less.(3)Essays must be your original work.The deadline：Midnight Oct.30, 2016Results：The winner will be posted on our writing contest website or on Teen Trend Report after Nov.26, 2016.21What is the text mainly about?AHow to write an essay.BHow to protect our planet.COctober 2016 writing contest.DSome environmental problems.22Which of the following essays will be accepted?AA 300word essay taken from the newspaper.BA 400word essay on air pollution.CA 500word essay full of imagination.DA 600word essay on plastic bottles.23How can one know the result of the contest?ABy sending an email.BBy visiting the website.CBy calling the organizer.DBy reading a scientific report.BAre you bad at math? If you answer yes, consider this question: Are you bad at math because you didnt study hard enough to learn the material or because you lack the ability to be good at it?As it turns out, many children believe that they dont do well on math tests because theyre intellectually incapable (无能的) of understanding the material. They have no reason to try harder, thus trapping them in a state of being bad at math.Educators Miles Kimball and Noah Smith argue that this is a big problem, “Math is the great mental subject of an unconfident America. If we can convince you that anyone can learn math, it should be a short step to convincing you that you can learn just about anything, if you work hard enough.”Psychologist Carol Dweck took on the task of convincing a group of students that if they worked hard they could become smarter. The truly remarkable part of that study was not that the kids improved and earned higher grades; it was that Dweck noted that a few of the tough boys in the group were brought to tears, learning that the level of intelligence they could reach was limitless it was entirely up to them.Of course, not all of us will become genius mathematicians, but the majority of us can become skilled and maybe even good at math. As Mashable points out, while dyscalculia (计算障碍), a math disability, is a real thing, only 6 percent of the population is likely to have it. For the rest of us, its a confidence problem, or a lack of belief that with hard work, well improve. Thankfully, we now know better, and we can pass on that_information to the next generation.24Many people dont work hard at math because they think that _.Atheir intelligence is highBmath is not worth learningCits useless to put in the effortDthey have understood the material25According to Miles Kimball and Noah Smith, _.Amath is a big problem to deal withBmost Americans dont like math at allCmath is an important subject at schoolDone can learn anything as long as he works hard26In Carol Dwecks study, the students _.Apassed the tests easilyBbecame good at math soonCdidnt get higher grades in the testDknow their intelligence depends on themselves27What does the underlined part “that information” refer to?AMath disability doesnt really exist.BEveryone is likely to learn math well.CMath cannot be ignored at any time.DConfidence is important in ones life.CLast year my wife and I spent a most interesting month in Turkey. Before we left, we were reminded of the difficulties of driving in Turkey. We certainly did not find this to be the case and, except for a few places in faraway mountain areas, the roads were wide, and wellpaved (铺设). We drove for 12 days along the Western Coast of Turkey and had no problems at all. We found the Turkish drivers to be very polite and well educated. We also found that eating lunch in the smaller towns was difficult, so we picnicked almost every day.The following day after our arrival was Turkeys Childrens Day, started by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. Ataturk loved children and he often said：“Children are a new beginning of tomorrow.” He even dedicated (奉献) the day 23rd of April to the children which is celebrated as Childrens Day.On that day certain children are picked to take over the places of the government, and a lucky kid will be the president of Turkey for a whole day. He can decide whats going to happen and whether or not he is going to have the president next to him. There are a very large number of possibilities of things he can do but some shops arent open because they are celebrating the day as well.All in all, it was a more enjoyable trip. I would recommend (推荐) a trip to Turkey to anyone with an adventurous (冒险的) spirit!28Before the author and his wife went on a trip to Turkey, they were told that _.Ait was difficult to travel in TurkeyBit was not easy to drive in TurkeyCthe streets in Turkey were dangerousDthere were many mountainous roads29Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph?APlaces in mountain areas were difficult to reach.BThe couple drove for 12 days during their journey.CThe Turkish drivers had good manners.DIt was difficult to eat meals in Turkey.30The underlined word “He” in Paragraph 3 refers to _.Aevery one of usBthe governmentCthe president of Turkey Dthe lucky child31What can be inferred from the passage?AThe couple had no difficulty making their way in Turkey.BTurkeys Childrens Day falls on the 22nd of April.CThe author joined in celebrating Childrens Day.DOn Turkeys Childrens Day everyone was busy.DMy kids tell me its unfair to play with the big children; I tell them thats right. The playing field is never even or equal. Your skills and attitude play a major role in the outcome.Unfairness is a good thing. There is more to be gained by the effort when things seem unfair. It is true that many things in the world are unfair, but unfair things usually benefit you. For example, the early bird catches the worm. It is unfair that the bird that sleeps in misses out on breakfast, but it is nice to know that if he gets up early he is sure to get the worm.I always try to explain to my kids that complaining about how unfair the thing is will get them nowhere. Instead, make use of it and get on the other side of it. Once you do that you are in the advantage. Above all, you have to focus on gaining the unfair advantage and you have to build your inner strength. When you empower (使强大) yourself, you are gaining skills or abilities, confidence and selfconfidence. You should look at your place in the world. Where do you want to be financially, spiritually, emotionally, and physically? You are creating your own story when you empower yourself.You can build all the advantages that you need to live the life that you want. If you havent yet, you need to make a list of all the things you want to experience in your new life. This will help you focus on building the advantage so that you never have to say that its not fair. When you do this, then you will be able to realize that unfairness is a good thing.32Why is unfairness a good thing?AIt will benefit us.BIt leads us to success.CIts common in the playing field.DIt gives us a realistic view of the world.33How does the author explain the benefits of unfair things?ABy listing facts. BBy telling a story.CBy making comparisons. DBy giving an example.34According to the author, what should we do in face of unfair things?AAvoid them if possible.BTake advantage of them.CChange them to fair things.DAnalyze the reason behind them.35The text is written to _.Aadvise us to be positive before unfair thingsBask us to stop complaining about unfair thingsCencourage us to try our best in the playing field Dshow the authors attitude to competitive sports第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Weight loss is a hard topic.
