But a New Jerseybased company, called TerraCycle, has taken on the challenge, and has come up with a way to recycle millions of cigarette ends and turn them into industrial plastic products. Its aim is to recycle things that people normally consider impossible to reuse.‎ Obviously it would be even better for the environment if everyone just stopped smoking, but the statistics show that although there has been an increase in anti-smoking ads and messaging, between 2000 and 2014, global sales of cigarettes increased by 8 percent, and a whole lot of those cigarette ends are ending up as trash. Since most of our litter eventually ends up in waterways, cigarette ends can surely pollute the surrounding environment. “It only takes a single cigarette end to pollute a liter of water, ” TerraCycle founder, Tom Szaky, said. “Animals can also mistake littered cigarette ends for food.”‎ So how do you go about turning all those poisonous ends into something useful? TerraCycle does this by first breaking them down into separate parts. They mix the remaining materials, such as the tobacco and the paper, with other kinds of rubbish; and use it on non-agricultural land, such as golf courses. The filters (过滤嘴) are a little harder. To recycle these, TerraCycle first makes them clean and cuts them into small pieces, and then combines them with other recycled materials, making them into liquid for industrial plastic products.‎ hey’re now also expanding their recycling offerings to the rest of the 80 percent of household waste that currently can’t be recycled, such as chocolate packaging, pens, and mobile phones. The goal is to use the latest research to find a way to stop so much waste ending up in landfill (垃圾填埋), and then get companies to provide money for the process. And so far, it’s working.‎ ‎“We haven’t found anything that we can’t recycle,”communications director of Terra Cycle, Albe Zakes, said. “But with the amount and variety of packaging and ‎ litter in the world, we are always looking for new waste streams to address.”‎ ‎21.What does Terra Cycle intend to do?‎ A. To search for recyclable materials for use.‎ B. To recycle what used to be considered unrecyclable.‎ C. To produce new kinds of industrial plastic products.‎ D. To deal with as many cigarette ends as possible.‎ ‎22.The underlined word “trash” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.‎ A. poison B. rubbish C. disaster D. ruin ‎23.What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?‎ A. The effective use of cigarette ends.‎ B. The reason for breaking down cigarette ends.‎ C. The difficulty in recycling cigarette ends.‎ D. The process of recycling cigarette ends.‎ ‎24.What Albe said in the last paragraph implies that ________.‎ A. TerraCycle is trying to meet the challenge of new waste B. it is difficult for TerraCycle to recycle everything C. there is more and more waste to be recycled D. TerraCycle has successfully recycled a large amount of waste B China is a big country, and there is no simple answer to the question “When is the best time to visit China? ” There are two best times to visit China, depending on your preference.‎ October Things to do: hike on the Great Wall, photography tour Places to visit: Beijing, Xi’an, Shanghai, Guilin,Jiuzhaigou, Chengdu The best time to go to China is early autumn (October).‎ Most of China has warm temperatures, and the summer rains have stopped (apart from around HongKong and Sanya) so it’s pretty dry. The autumnn colours are also amazing. It is quiet at tourist attractions for most of the month, as the summer holiday ‎ travel crowds have gone. But try to avoid October 1 st -7 th, which is the Chinese National Day holiday, as attractions, transport and hotels are packed with Chinese tourists and prices go up a lot.‎ Late Spring (April to May)‎ Things to do: appreciate flowers, Li River cruise, ethnic festivals Places to visit: Beijing, Xi’an, Guilin, Huangshan, GuiZhou, Zhangjiajie The second-best time to travel to China is probably in April and May, when the flowers are in bloom and the temperatures are warming up. In late spring, temperatures across China are getting into the 20s (℃), except the extreme northwest and northeast. While the North of China is still dry, the summer rains have already begun in the South. This could actually improve the view in the form of mountain fog in mountainous areas like the Li River and the Yellow Mountains.‎ Ethnic festivals in GuiZhou are concentrated in April and May, such as the Sisters’ Meal Festival. If you are interested in Miao and Dong ethnic cultures, this is a good time to visit.‎ Travel prices are average: cheaper than June to October, but more expensive than the lower season from November to March.‎ ‎25.Which time is best if you want to attend the ethnic festivals in GuiZhou?‎ A. April 25 th. B. June 17 th. C. October 1 st. D. November 9 th.‎ ‎26.Which are the best places to visit in both October and late spring?‎ A. Beijing and Zhangjiajie. B. Shanghai and GuiZhou.‎ C. Xi’an and Guilin. D. Huangshan and Jiuzhaigou.‎ ‎27.Why is late spring the best time to visit Huangshan?‎ A. Because the summer rains haven’t come yet.‎ B. Because the wet weather adds to its beauty.‎ C. Because there are several special festivals there.‎ D. Because the prices are the lowest of the year.‎ C Imagine a mass of floating waste is two times the size of the state of Texas. Texas has a land area of more than 678,000 square kilometers. So it might be difficult ‎ to imagine anything twice as big. All together, this mass of waste flowing in the North Pacific Ocean is known as the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch（太平洋垃圾带）. It weighs about 3,500,000 tons. The waste includes bags, bottles and containers-plastic products of all kinds.‎ The eastern part of the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch is about 1,600 kilometers west of California. The western part is west of the Hawaiian Islands and east of Japan. The area has been described as a kind of oceanic desert, with light winds and slow moving water currents（流，流动）. The water moves so slow that garbage from all over the world collects there.‎ In recent years, there have been growing concerns about the floating garbage and its effect on sea creatures and human health. Scientists say thousands of animals get trapped in the floating waste, resulting in death or injury. Even more die from a lack of food or water after swallowing pieces of plastic. The trash can also make animals feel full, diminishing their desire to eat or drink.‎ The floating garbage also can have harmful effects on people. There is an increased threat of infection（感染）of disease from polluted waste, and from eating fish that swallowed waste. Divers can also get trapped in the plastic.‎ Its existence first gained public attention in 1997. That was when racing boat captain and oceanographer Charles Moore and his crew sailed into the garbage while returning from a racing event. Five years earlier, another oceanographer learnt of the trash after a shipment of rubber duckies got lost at sea. Many of those toys are now part of the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch.‎ In August,2017, a team from the University of California, San Diego became the latest group to travel to it. They were shocked by the amount of waste they saw. They gathered hundreds of sea creatures and water samples to measure the garbage patch’s effect on ocean environment.‎ ‎28.The first paragraph is written to ______.‎ A. lead in the topic of the text B. inspire readers’ imagination C. develop readers’ interest in Texas D. talk about reasons for water pollution ‎29.What does the underlined word “diminishing” in Paragraph 3 mean?‎ A. Increasing. B. Determining. C. Weakening. D. Reserving.‎ ‎30.Which column can you find the passage on a newspaper?‎ A. Sports and entertainment. B. Media and culture.‎ C. Environment and society. D. Science and technology.‎ ‎31.The purpose of writing this passage is to ______.‎ A. warn people of the danger to travel in the pacific B. analyze what caused the waste patch in the pacific C. give advice on how to recycle waste in the ocean D. introduce the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch D Schools across the world are trying to come up with solutions to keep students active. Some are replacing traditional classroom chairs with exercise balls or standing desks. At Ward Elementary School in Winston, North Carolina students have adopted a new program that requires riding fixed bikes while reading.‎ ‎‘Read and Ride’ is the creation of school counselor Scott Ertl, who came up with the idea while he was exercising and reading at the gym. Believing it would be a fun way to convince students to become more active, he placed one in the corner of his classroom and encouraged them to use it during independent reading classes.‎ It was so popular that Ertl decided to add more bikes and offer the Read and Ride program to the entire school. Today Ward Elementary has a dedicated exercise room filled with bikes that can be used by students while completing their daily reading assignments.‎ Besides making reading more fun, the program also helps students exercise at a comfortable pace without the pressure that comes with regular sports-related activities. It is also a perfect way to release energy during days when the weather is not helpful to outdoor activities.‎ Most importantly, however, are the program’s academic benefits. A year after Read and Ride was introduced at Ward Elementary School, students actively involved in the program demonstrated an astonishing 83% reading proficiency. Those that had not taken advantage of the exercise bikes tested at a much lower, 41%.‎ Though the substantial improvement in academic achievement cannot all be attributed to programs like Read and Ride, experts believe they are a significant contributor. That’s because studies have shown that physical activity stimulates（刺激） brain cells and helps prepare it for learning. As word of the difference made by this easy to execute exercise program spreads, don’t be surprised to find schools across the country adopt “Read and Ride” for their students.‎ ‎32.What is the new program at Ward Elementary School?‎ A. Kids ride bikes as they read.‎ B. Kids excise balls and read at the gym.‎ C. Kids sit at desks for long while reading.‎ D. Kids do outdoor activities during lessons.‎ ‎33.How do the students at Ward Elementary School benefit from the program?‎ A. They exercise with high pressure.‎ B. They feel reading fun and learn better.‎ C. They improve their sense of competition.‎ D. They are instructed to read at the same pace.‎ ‎34.What can we learn from the last paragraph?‎ A. The program will be more and more popular.‎ B. Schools doubt whether the program is available.‎ C. Physical activities prevent kids from learning more.‎ D. The school achievement depends wholly on the program.‎ ‎35.What would be the best title of the passage?‎ A. Standing desks help school kids focus on their studies.‎ B. Traditional teaching should be banned in the near future.‎ C. ‘Read And Ride’ aims to make students healthier and smarter.‎ D. Kids need release energy during independent reading classes.‎ 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ In the digital age, copying someone else's words is easy, but getting caught ‎ copying is even easier.

Within hours, news spread around the world with the claim that Melania Trump had plagiarized Michelle Obama's speech. Students and teachers at universities in the U. S. and elsewhere were shocked. 36.‎ What is plagiarism?‎ ‎37.That person could also be called a "literary thief' or a" plagiarist'.‎ Why is plagiarism a serious problem?‎ It's our own worst fear, to have that thing that we created stolen from us, and it's the same as our words. That thing that we created is essential to who we are. 38.
