And that is right. Protecting our environment is very important, and World Earth Day was_in 1970 to raise peoples environmental awareness. On April 22, People around the world celebrate Earth day.Every year there is a special_, and this year it is “Trees for Earth”, so Earth Day will be all about planting trees. Their goal is to plant 7.8 billion trees_the next five years.Thats a big goal, and you might wonder_trees are so important. Well for one, they can help stop climate change. Carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) is a chemical in our atmosphere, but_make too much of it. Each person makes about 2.3 tons a year, which is bad for the environment.Well guess what! Trees_carbon dioxide and protect the air quality. Planting new trees is important because people cut down_trees. Last year, there were 3 trillion(万亿) trees in the_, about 139 billion in China. But according to Time, the worlds total number has been_cut in half since human civilization (文明) began. Thats because 15 billion trees are cut down every year.So we need to plant more to replenish (补充) the ones weve lost. One tree can take in 48 pounds (21.8kg) of carbon dioxide per year. And its still one of the cheapest and_ways to get rid of carbon dioxide.But dont forget that you can also help the environment by cutting down on how much energy or water you use every day. Every little thing helps!16 . （小题1）AsetBproducedCcreatedDfound17 . （小题2）AnameBthemeCsayingDsign18 . （小题3）AforBafterCbyDin19 . （小题4）AwhatBwhyCwhetherDhow20 . （小题5）AhumansBanimalsCghostsDplants21 . （小题6）Atake outBput outCtake inDput in22 . （小题7）AcountlessBhopelessCuselessDendless23 . （小题8）AwildBworldCforestDspace24 . （小题9）Ahardly来源:BneverCreallyDalmost25 . （小题10）AmostBbest CfewestDworst三、阅读单选Difficult times often bring out the best in people. Many well-known people come to help those who are in trouble. And this was the case for basketball player Yao Ming. He hosted a television show in Shanghai and raised US $ 300,000 to help researchers (研究员) find a medical cure. Fund-raising, or charity, is an act of goodwill(好意) towards others.Charities in the West have more ways. Look at a typical day for Ruth, a rich woman in the UK, for example. Ruth wakes up in the morning and collects her post. Theres a letter addressed to her with a picture of a half-dead, beaten(筋疲力尽的) horse. Its from a charity asking Ruth to donate money to save the animals. She turns on the television, and sees a picture of a wideeyed child dying of hunger in Africa with a request (请求) for money to help the child. The tickets for the charity shows often cost her a lot of money, but she doesnt mind because most of the money is going to a charity that fights AIDS. She feels good about going because shes helping the sick. Edna, a little old lady, looks after a second-hand shopa charity shop. Any profit (收益) it has made goes to a cancer(癌症) charity. Now that she doesnt have to work, she has lots of time to offer her services for free.For people like Yao Ming, Ruth and Edna, charity is a virtue (美德) that holds the same importance in life as faith and hope. “As you look back on your life, the moments that stand out are the moments when you have done things for others,” said Scottish writer Henry Drummond.26 . Yao Ming hosted a television show to _ .Amake more moneyBraise money for his basket teamCmake himself more famousDraise money for researchers to find a cure for SARS27 . We can infer (推断)from the passage that _ .AEdna may not be a rich lady but she is willing to do something for othersBRuth is angry because she has been asked to donate too much moneyCRuth leads a busy life and she feels very tiredDYao Ming wants to be a television host28 . Which of the following is TRUE?AOnly Yao Ming, Ruth and Edna try their best to do things for charity.BRuth has given a lot of support to charity although she is not very rich.CThe writer hopes that more people can do things for charity.DEdna is very rich because she has her own shop.29 . One morning, Ruth received a letter with a picture of a horse in it because _ .Ashe lost her horseBa charity wanted her to donate some moneyCshe loved horse very muchDshe wanted to keep a horse as a pet30 . The underlined(划线) part in the last paragraph probably means that _ .Awhat impresses people deeply is what they have done for othersBwhen you want to do something for others, you need stand outCthe moment you stand out, you can do something for othersDwhen you look back sometimes, you need stand outAsstudents, youmayhavemanydreams.
