Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today. People didn't have modern machines and there was no modern medicine, 36 . However, people lived in a clean world.
Life today has brought new problems. One of the biggest 37 is pollution. Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes 38 . It kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us 39 more loudly and get angry more easily. Air pollution is the most 40 kind of pollution. It's bad to all living things in the world.
Cars, planes and factories 41 pollute air every day. Sometimes the polluted 42 is so thick that it is like a quilt(被子) over a city. This kind of quilt is called smog.
Many countries are making rules to 43 pollution. Factories must clean their waste water before it is 44 into the river. They mustn't blow dirty smoke into the air.
We need to do many other things. We can put waste things into the dustbin and not 45 them on the ground. We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car. If there are fewer people driving, there will be less pollution.

Droughts(干旱) are common in Kenya. Before, they came every 10 years, but now they seem to be hitting us more often and for a longer time.
We gave the droughts names: "longoza" was the drought when many animals died; there was the drought of the "planes" because food was dropped from the air by planes; and one particularly bad drought was called "man who dies with his money in his fist(拳头)", because, even if there was money, there was simply no food to buy.
I was born in 1951 in Machakos. From what my mother tells me, when I was 7, there was a serious drought. I clearly remember the terrible weather and the hunger. I can't tell you how many times I went to bed without eating. "I slept like that," is how we described it. I can't count the number of days when "I slept like that," or describe the feeling of going to sleep hungry, knowing I'd wake up and there would still be no food for breakfast.
My father would leave early in the morning carrying a little basket to ask for food on credit (赊欠). Each night he would return home around 10:00 p.m. My mother would try to encourage me by telling me to keep the water in our pot boiling so that when my father arrived we could quickly cook any food he brought in the already prepared water. I would keep the fire burning and the water boiling, along with the hopes that we would eat that night. But my father would arrive frustrated and empty-handed. And I would sleep like that.
55. The best title for the text is .
A. A Hungry Childhood Caused by Droughts
B. Food and Hunger
C. Protecting the Environment
D. Droughts and Their Names
56. What does the drought of the "longoza" refer to (指代)?

B. People had to eat animals because of hunger.
C. Many animals died because of the droughts.
D. People died of hunger even if they had money.
57. Why would the author keep the fire burning and the water boiling?
A. To wait for her father to come back to have supper.
B. To cook the food that her father would bring back.
C. To keep her house warm all night.
D. To make her hungry mother happy.
58. The sentence "I slept like that" means " ".
A. I was disappointed when my father came back empty-handed
B. I felt sorry because my family got hungry again
C. I went to sleep with no food for breakfast
D. I went to bed with nothing to eat
D
Disposing(处理) of waste has been a problem since humans started producing it. As more and more people choose to live close together in cities, the waste-disposal problem becomes increasingly difficult.
During the eighteenth century, it was usual for several neighboring towns to get together to select a faraway spot as a dumpsite to keep the waste. Residents or trash haulers (垃圾拖运者) would transport household rubbish, rotted wood, and old possessions to the site. Periodically(定期) some of the trash was burned and the rest was buried(掩埋). The unpleasant sights and smells caused no problem because nobody lived close by.
Factories, mills, and other industrial sites also had waste to be disposed of. Those located on rivers often just dumped the unwanted remains into the water. Others built huge burners with chimneys to deal with the problem.
Several facts make these choices unacceptable to modern society. The first problem is space. Dumps, which are now called landfills, are most needed in heavily populated areas. Such areas rarely have empty land suitable for this purpose. Property is either too expensive or too close to residential(住宅区的) neighborhoods. Long distance trash hauling has been a common practice, but once farm areas are refusing to accept rubbish from elsewhere, cheap land within trucking distance of major city areas is almost nonexistent.
Awareness of pollution dangers has resulted in more strict rules of waste disposal. Pollution of rivers, ground water, land and air is a price people can no longer pay to get rid of waste. The amount of waste, however, continues to grow.
Recycling efforts have become commonplace, and many towns require their people to take part. Even the most efficient recycling programs, however, can hope to deal with only about 50 percent of a city's reusable waste.
59. The best title for this passage would be .
A. Places for Disposing Waste
B. Waste Pollution Dangers
C. Ways of Getting Rid of Waste
D. Waste Disposal Problem
60. During the 18th century, people disposed their waste in many ways EXCEPT for .
A. burying it
B. burning it
C. recycling it
D. throwing it into rivers
61. The main purpose of writing this article is to .
A. draw people's attention to waste management
B. warn people of the pollution dangers we are facing
C. call on people to take part in recycling programs
D. tell people a better way to get rid of the waste

Just about everything you do leaves a "carbon footprint (碳的足迹)". For example, when you travel in a taxi, the car gives off carbon dioxide (CO2 ) into the air. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas. Greenhouse gases make the earth become warm. To protect our environment, we need to leave less of a "carbon footprint".
How big is your carbon footprint? To get an idea, take a look at the following numbers.
● TV sets and DVD players produce 723kg of CO2 a year.
● If you use your dryer machine five times per week, you produce 185kg of CO2 per year.
● If you take an eight-minute shower every day, you produce 616kg of CO2 a year.
Surprised? Well, here's how you can work to reduce it:
Eating
● Each week, choose a day not to eat meat. Meat uses up lots of energy because it takes a long time to produce.
● Do not waste food. Ask to take food home from restaurants if there's any left.
At home
● Save energy by using efficient light bulbs. Turn off the lights when you leave.
● Take short showers rather than baths.
● Dry your clothes in the sun instead of in a dryer machine.
At school
● Only print things out when necessary, and print dou ble-sided.
● Don't use disposable(一次性的) cups or boxes. Take your own cups and lunchboxes to school.

Today is the Earth Day. Our reporter Nick Ford interviewed several people in the street. This is what they told him:
9:24 Miss. Mayfield, a young teacher
I try to tell my students the importance of our relations with wild animals. I take them to zoos and forests, and I avoid using materials that come from wild animals, for example, ivory, which comes from elephants. I don't wear things made of fur, and I even avoid buying leather shoes. Wool is okay, though-the sheep don't get hurt!
10:03 Mr. Perdue, a businessman
I don't use my car for short journeys. I walk or go by bike. It's good for my health, and it doesn't pollute the air. 10:30 Tom Pitt, a 14-year-old student
I only buy writing paper and notebooks made from recycled paper. And when I buy something made of wood, like a wooden table, I'll make sure that the wood comes from a forest where they plant new trees.
11:01 Mr. White, an artist
I'm an artist, and I enjoy recycled art. They are things make out of rubbish-like this model plane made from old containers. In fact, I hate throwing things away. I even keep my old woolen clothes and cotton handkerchiefs and use them for cleaning.
11:35 Ms. Nelson, a policewoman
I'm careful not to waste electricity. For example, I always turn the lights off when I leave a room. And I don't have the TV on when I'm not watching it.
12:00 Mr. Parks, a doctor
I take my empty bottles, jars, and anything else made of glass to recycling center every week. I try not to buy plastic bottles because you can't recycle most kinds of plastic.
