    At 8,844.43 meters high, Mount Qomolangma is the tallest mountain on Earth. While it is famous for its beautiful views, parts of the mountain are facing a problem: rubbish. Every year, thousands of visitors throw away tons of rubbish, such as bottles and plastic bags.

    According to the UN, over 140 tons of rubbish has been left on the mountain. To reduce rubbish, China is limiting (限制) the number of people who are allowed to climb up the north side of the mountain. Only 300 people will be allowed to climb it, and only during spring.
    Local people cleaned the mountain last year, removing rubbish at a height of 5,200 meters. They collected about 8. 4 metric tons of rubbish.
    This year, the local government plans to spend 4 million yuan on a new clean-up activity. The local government is also setting up stations to sort (分类), recycle and break down rubbish collected from the mountain. A group of artists will also try to turn the rubbish into art works. They will show these works of art to remind people not to leave rubbish when climbing the mountain.
1.What problem are parts of Mount Qomolangma facing?

How green are you? Do you know how to be green?
We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our environment. Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you.
Reduce
Reduce means “use less”. Don’t waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new, think whether it is really necessary—or maybe the old one will be just as good! When we do buy things, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many things from abroad.
Reuse
Reuse means “use again”. Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time. We should look after them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don’t use a paper cup of a paper bag. It’s better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.
Recycle
Recycle means “change things into something else”. Though it takes energy to change something into something else, it’s better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your neighbourhood and take part in recycling programmes. We should also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.
So please remember these three words: reduce, reuse and recycle.
1. What is the passage about?
A. How to produce things.
B. How to burn things.
C. How to help others.
D. How to be green.
2. Which of the following is right?
A. Don't waste things.
B. Always throw away old things.
C. Always buy new things.
D. Buy too many things from abroad.
3. Why is it better to use a china cup and a lunch box?
A. You can burn them.
B. You can use them again.
C. You can throw them away.
D. You can change them into something else.
4. To protect the environment, we should remember these three words: _______.
A. waste, reuse and recycle
B. repair, burn and recycle
C. reduce, reuse and recycle
D. reduce, waste and recycle.
5. The passage may come from ______.
A. a menu
B. a dictionary
C. a storybook
D. a magazine
C
    In your spare time, do you help your parents with chores (杂活) around the house? Can you cook for your family?
    In order to stress (强调) the importance of hardworking spirit education (劳动教育) among students of different ages, the Communist Party of China Central Committee (中共中央) recently released (发布) a guideline (指导方针).
    The guideline calls for students to respect labor work. Students should learn basic life skills and form good working habits through such education.
    The government has been trying to stress the importance of hard-working spirit education. But this has been overlooked (忽视) in recent years. Many teenagers do not value the importance of working hard and aren't interested in doing so.

    Schools and families play an important role in teaching students about the value of working hard, the guideline says.
    Primary and middle schools should provide students with hard-working spirit classes every week, according to the guideline. Schools can also hold activities to give students real-world work experience. For example, schools can teach children how to plant trees on Tree Planting Day.
    As children's first teachers, parents should also encourage children to learn how to do chores at home. Students should master one or two life skills every year. These skills can include cooking, washing their own clothes and tidying their rooms.

⑥句意:对于一些人们来说,发短信改变了他们的生活。change是一个动词,意思是改变。根据句意和下面的例子可以知道,发短信还改变了一些人的生活。这句话使用的是现在完成时,所以这里用过去分词的形式changed。
⑦句意:例如,James Trusler走遍世界参加发短信比赛和电视节目。他是世界上发短信最快的人。fastest是fast的最高级形式,根据句意和下文set a new world record可知,James这个人是世界上发短信最快的人。
⑧句意:最近他在参加澳大利亚的一个电视节目的时候,又创造了一个新的世界纪录。while 是一个连词,意思是当…时候。根据句意可知,James是在参加电视节目的时候,创造了新的世界纪录。故填while。
⑨句意:只花费了他67秒的时间就发送了一篇短信。这句话中使用的是一个句型,It takes sb. +一段时间+to do sth.。这是一个表示花费的句型,句型中的It是一个形式主语。
⑩句意:但是他不用付大额的账单,因为他在一个大型的手机公司工作。根据句意可知,James是世界上发短信最快的人,他发短信不用付账,这是因为他在手机公司工作。故这里表示的是原因,填because。
九、书面表达
答案：
My reading habits
I love reading. I spend over eight hours a week reading different types of books. But when I was young, I was interested in reading comic books and funny stories. Later my parents, friends and teachers give me lots of advice on books. Now I like reading science books and novels best. In the beginning, I didn’t know how to read. My teacher told me how to improve my reading skills. Before reading, I search for some book reviews on the computer. While reading, I take some notes. After reading, I write down some book reports. I also discuss with my classmates about good books and recommend book reports to each other.
In the past, I often bought most books for myself, or I borrowed some from the library. Now I always read online. Reading not only brings me knowledge but also pleasure. Books make me relax after a busy day. Moreover, they also open up a whole new world to me.
