阅读理解

    Earth's atmosphere (大气) is made of the layers of air that is around Earth. Thanks to the O2 found in the atmosphere, humans and other animals can breathe.

    The atmosphere has four layers. The closest layer to Earth is the troposphere. The troposphere reaches from Earth to about 8 to 15 kilometers above sea level (平面).

    It includes most of the air and O2 in the atmosphere, so all life on Earth lives here. The closer to the ground, the warmer the air is. Higher up in the troposphere, the air becomes much colder.

    The second layer of the atmosphere is the stratosphere. The stratosphere reaches to around 50 kilometers above Earth. Near the top of the stratosphere is the ozone layer (臭氧层). The ozone layer helps protect life on Earth from the sun's UV radiation. Unluckily, there are holes in several parts of the ozone layer. This could cause serious problems for life on Earth.

    The third layer of the atmosphere is the mesosphere. It reaches up to around 80 kilometers above Earth. The mesosphere has the coldest temperature in the atmosphere. It can be as cold as -100℃ there.

    The fourth layer is called the thermosphere. It reaches up to around 600 kilometers above Earth. This is where outer space begins. The international space station runs around the planet from this layer. The temperature here is very high. It gets up to 1, 200℃.

(1)、The troposphere goes up to around ____________ above the Earth.
A、8-15 kilometers B、50 kilometers C、80 kilometers D、600 kilometers
(2)、The ______________ is the coldest layer in the atmosphere.
A、troposphere B、stratosphere C、mesosphere D、thermosphere

A、In the troposphere, the closer to the ground, the colder the air is. B、The ozone layer could cause problems for life on Earth. C、Outer space begins from the mesosphere. D、The temperature in the thermosphere can be 1200℃.
(4)、Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage? (P: Paragraph)
A、 B、 C、 D、
(5)、________________ may be the best title of the passage.

Taipan Village is a small, mountainous community in the Guizhou Province of Southwestern China. What's special is that this village, home to fewer than 1,200 residents, has become a hot topic on the internet due to its vibrant(活力满满的) basketball competition, often referred to as "Cun BA. "

Since 2020, local farmers in the area have found a fun way to celebrate their successful harvests(丰收): basketball games. The rules of "Cun BA" require that players be local male farmers aged 18 to 35. This means you'll see people with all kinds of day jobs like raising cows, growing wheat, and selling vegetables competing on different teams. These farmers started their own basketball league, comprising a total of 198 teams.

These games attract a big crowd. Many basketball fans travel long distances just to watch and cheer for their favorite teams. Even people originally from Taipan Village who now work elsewhere make the trip back home to enjoy the games. Over the 45-day competition period, Taipan Village welcomes more than 500,000 visitors, which creates new opportunities for sports and tourism. On the first day of the tournament(联赛), they made over 300,000 yuan in sales from goods like mascot toys, basketballs, and team uniforms. It's clear that basketball is making a big difference in improving this once-poor village.

 阅读短文,在空白处填入一个适当的单词或用括号内所给词的正确形式填空,使短文通顺、连贯。

Do you believe picking up rubbish has become a world competition?

In November of 2023, the first Rubbish Collection World Cup {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(hold) in Asia. Teams from 21{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (country) took part in it. According to the rules, each team will have 60 minutes to collect rubbish as much as possible. Britain {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(final) won the first prize. "We hope more people around the world will pay attention to {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (environment) problems, " said a British team member. 

When Ken, the founder (创始人) of the competition, was interviewed, he talked about how he came up {#blank#}5{#/blank#} the idea. Several years ago, he found many sea animals died {#blank#}6{#/blank#}of the rubbish in the sea. So he started to pick up rubbish on his way to the beach every morning. 

"Picking up {#blank#}7{#/blank#} piece of rubbish may save a turtle's (海龟的) life. It's also a good way to keep the beach clean. " In his eyes, changing {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (people) thoughts about rubbish was more important. 

"Picking up rubbish is meaningful and {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(help), " added Ken. "Now, I am glad to hear that lots of people take part in it {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (protect) our environment. "
