It then joins tons of other garbage that is becoming a big problem in cities.Each day, about 10,000 tons of waste is produced in Guangzhou, and 17,000 tons of household waste is produced in Beijing. In other countries, the case is similar. “If youre like most of us, most Americans, youre making seven pounds (3.17kg) of trash a day,” US writer Edward Humes told CNN. So, an American makes 102 tons of trash in a lifetime.If you simply throw away that broken pen, it goes to a landfill(垃圾填埋场) and is buried together with many other trash. To prevent polluting the groundwater, workers cover the trash with soil and keep it dry. And your pen will stay there for a long, long time, without having further use. But it could have a better destination: the recycling bin. Have you ever noticed the different colors of trash bins in the street? Many cities in China have been running a waste-sorting campaign. They divide trash into “recyclable waste” and “unrecyclable waste”. So in Yiwu there are many “Little Yellow Dog” appearing all around the city, even in our campus. Recycling waste can save energy, reduce greenhouse gas, and keep space free for the unrecyclable trash. Take your pen as an example. At the recycling factory, its metal parts could be taken out and reused to make other things.But recycling is not enough, experts say. Making less waste in the first place is the way forward. “The best thing to do is just to keep using your stuff for as long as you can,” US writer Adam Minter told Time Out magazine.26 . How much trash does each American make every year on average?A7 kgB3.17kgC102 tonsDover 1 ton27 . According to the story, how should we deal with broken pens?AThrow them away.BBury them in a landfill.CPut them into a recycling bin.DGive them to our friend.28 .

In one year，they took four tests in different times. The results showed brain development changes at least every four months.The children taking music lessons not only did better in musical listening but also made faster progress in other ways，such as reading，writing，math and IQ.People say music is the good medicine for a broken heart.

A recent report shows that about 80 percent of diseases in developing countries are caused by poor water and low sanitation（卫生）conditions. In those countries, women and girls spend several hours collecting water, but often polluted, far away from their families. The polluted water more or less influences their health. In this case, there is an urgent（迫切的）need for people in developing countries to have access to（有机会或权利使用）clean water to improve their health.Here is a short story about Hadjara Zakari, a 12-year-old girl in Niger. Having access to clean water changed her life. She learned about the importance of hand-washing when the school first received clean water three years ago. That evening, she told her father, “You shouldnt eat with me unless you clean your hands.” Her father was very angry and shouted at her, “Its not up to you to tell me what to do!” Stunned（目瞪口呆的）, Hadjara sat in silence. But she knew she was right. In protest, Hadjara refused to eat dinner that night. After her father questioned Hadjaras head teacher, he understood the importance of hand-washing and his daughters intentions（目的）. The girl really wanted her family to live longer and healthier lives.For people in developing countries, clean water can change many things, especially improve their health. So, from now on, lets avoid wasting water and take action to save water, which is important to people all over the world.35 . According to the recent report, poor water and low sanitation conditions can cause _.Atraffic problemsBforest firesCmany illnesses36 . The key to improving peoples health in developing countries is _ in Paragraph 1.Ato get clean waterBto exercise oftenCto refuse drugs37 . What can we infer（推断）from Paragraph 2?AHadjara laughed at her fathers foolishness.BHadjara refused to eat dinner that night in order to lose weight.CHadjaras father understood his daughters love and care for him later.Miss Wang: Hi, boys and girls!
