初中英语牛津版(深圳·广州)九年级下册Module 2 Environmental problems Unit 3 The environment同步练习

根据短文内容,选择正确答案。

    Why do we like drinking water from plastic bottles? Some people think it is healthy and clean. Others drink bottled water because it's easy--you can carry it around with you. In hot countries, like Greece, we often buy bottles of cold water in the summer.

    However, making lots of plastic is not a good idea for many reasons. First of all, we need a lot of oil for plastic products. We usually use oil as a resource of energy. If we reduced the number of bottles we made, we wouldn't need so much oil. Plastic bottles also pollute the environment. If we recycled all our plastic bottles, we wouldn't need so much space for rubbish dumps. But in Greece, we don't recycle much of the plastic we use. In 2006, Greeks recycled only about 10% of plastic waste. The rest became rubbish on land and in rivers and seas.

    So next time you want to throw away a plastic bottle in the litter bin, stop and think. If you recycled it, you would help the environment. But what can you do when there isn't a recycling bin near you? Well, there are lots of useful ways that you can use your bottles again. For example, an empty bottle makes a great piggy bank for your pocket money, and if you cut in half, you will have a plant pot. Go green! You can make a difference.

(1)、What is not mentioned about bottled water in this passage?

A、It's healthy. B、It's clean. C、It's easy. D、It's expensive.
(2)、Plastic products are made from         .

A、energy B、oil C、rubbish D、plants
(3)、            of plastic waste became rubbish in Greece in 2006.

(4)、Which is the best way to deal with used plastic bottles?

A、To recycle them. B、To make a piggy bank. C、To make a plant pot. D、To drop them into the river.
(5)、The underlined part in this passage tells us "       ".

A、To make a different life, you'd better go outside B、To look different, you'd better wear green clothes C、To Protect the environment, you can do something D、To go green, you should use plastic products

Two Canadian teenagers, Faiz and Leo, have been taking on a series of wonderful challenges. Their most recent achievement was following the Lake Ontario coastline for 73 kilometers, walking from Toronto to Hamilton, Canada, in about 18 hours.

"We enjoy trying new things that are good for our bodies and minds. We like to overcome challenges like these. And we feel going on a long walk seems to be the purest form of challenge that you can have," Leo said.

With very little preparation, the two 16-year-olds began their journey at 6 am, starting in darkness and finishing before midnight. They took several breaks, stopping at benches with nice views along the way.

On their walk, one of the interesting things they came across was a cargo ship (货船) which was no longer used. "You' d be surprised by the things that you don't see when you' re driving and that you will see when you' re taking your time walking," said Leo.

However, the journey was not only a trial (考验) for bodies but also an important test of minds. There were moments of loneliness for the pair, requiring them to support each other along the way.

Around 70 km into the walk, they ran into a person on a bridge who appeared to be experiencing something painful.

"I wasn't sure what was going to happen me and Leo, we tried to talk him out of it and ended up calling the police, and the situation was eased and everyone was OK," Faiz said.

The walk is now long over but Faiz and Leo are not done challenging themselves, with plans to start a two-day 100 km walk in the near future.

Working for a big company in London on a salary (薪水)of over £100, 000, you might expect Grayden Reece-Smith to have a luxurious (奢侈)lifestyle, going on expensive holidays or driving a sports car around south London, where he lives. In fact, the 28-year-old leads a very different life from his colleagues. He gives away everything he earns over £42, 000–a number that he thought he could comfortably live on. 

Over the past five years, Reece-Smith has handed over more than £250, 000 to organizations such as International Care Ministries, which helps poor families in the Philippines, and the Against Malaria Foundation. He is part of a growing number of young people described as "influential altruists". Influential altruists donate regularly to a charity which they think will have a great impact(影响). Some change careers to make more money, which can then be given away. 

Reece-Smith considered working in the charity after graduating from university, but thought that he could make a bigger difference by donating a large part of his salary. He had volunteered as a teacher at a school in Tanzania, but then realized that earning and giving would be more effective. "The cost of my flights there could have paid the salaries of two teachers for an entire year, " he says. Instead, he could "stay at home, living a nice life and still make a huge difference in the world". 

He is not mean with money-last year he went to Cuba on holiday, and spent several thousand pounds on a new sofa. But his lifestyle isn't as luxurious as some of the people he works with. "I usually don't buy supermarket-branded food products, but I don't own a car. Other people on my salary might have a bigger house. Some of my colleagues have four-bedroom houses, but we only bought what we needed-a two-bedroom flat. £42, 000 is more than enough to live on and still save, " he says.
