阅读理解

    There are many things we need to know that we do not learn at school. For example, if we want to use our money wisely, we need to shop carefully. We need to know how to compare(对比) the prices of the things in different shops. We need to be able to compare the quality of different brands(品牌). We need to know how to make a choice when we shop.

    Knowing how to make such choices is a “life skill”, and we need these skills if we are to live useful and happy lives.

    Some of these choices are small. For example, will I take an apple or a pear for lunch? Will I go to school by bus or on foot? Will I wear the red T-shirt or the blue one to the movies? Other choices are more important. For example, will I work hard in all my classes or will I only work hard in the classes I enjoy? We make choices like this every day.

    We have to realize that the choices we make can affect(影响) the rest of our lives. Just as importantly, our choices can also affect other people. The next time you decide to waste time in class, play a joke on someone or talk loudly at the cinemas, think about this: Who else does your choice affect?

(1)、According to the passage, we can learn ______ at school.
A、all the things we need to know B、nothing useful C、something we need to know D、those things that are useless in daily life

Once upon a time all feelings went to an island for a vacation, and each was having a good time. Suddenly, a warning of a strong storm was announced, so all rushed to their boats. Yet, Love did not wish to run away quickly. There was so much to do. But as the clouds darkened, Love realized it was time to leave. But there were no boats to use. Love looked around with hope.

Just then Richness was passing by Love in a large boat. Love shouted, "Richness, can you take me with you?" Richness answered, "No, I can't. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."

Love decided to ask Vanity (虚荣) who was also passing by in a beautiful boat for help. But Vanity said with a cold voice, "No, I can't take you with me. My boat will get dirty with your muddy feet."

Sorrow passed by after some time. Again, Love asked for help. But it was useless. "No, I can't take you with me. I am so sad. I want to be by myself."

When Happiness passed by a few minutes later, Love again called for help. But Happiness was so happy that it hardly cared about anyone else.

Love was growing worried and hopeless. Just then somebody called out, "Come, Love, I will take you with me." Love did not know who was being so kind, but jumped onto the boat happily.

After getting off the boat, Love met Knowledge. Love asked, "Knowledge, do you know who was so kind to give me a lift when no one else wished to help?"

Knowledge smiled, "Oh, that was Time."

"Time?" asked Love. "But why did Time help me?"

Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered, "Because only Time is able to understand how valuable (有价值的) Love is."

They hang from trees.They float in rivers and oceans.They are piled up in landfills(垃圾填埋场).Our frequent use of plastic products has,for many years,been a leading cause of serious environmental problems in the world.Last month,China drew up new guidelines(指导方针)aiming to bring plastic pollution under control across the country in five years' time. 

According to the new guidelines,the ban(禁令)on the use of non-biodegradable(不可生物降解的)plastic bags will have been applied to cities including Beijing and Shanghai by the end of this year.Other sources of plastic garbage will have been banned in these cities by the end of 2022.And that rule will have extended nationwide by late 2025. 

Fortunately,China will not start from zero.Late last year,the country announced a national standard for biodegradable plastic shopping bags.It is technologically prepared for their production.Some regions have gained valuable experience that others can learn from.For example,Jilin province is leading the way by providing eco-friendly(环保的)shopping bags in some local supermarkets. 

Given the size of China's consumer market,one main obstacle(障碍)is the large number of plastic items that are being used by restaurants and e-commerce(电子商务)platforms.It's estimated that nearly 25 billion plastic bags were used for deliveries in 2018.Most of them were rarely reused. 

However,most Chinese people welcomed the government's effort to reduce the use of plastics."Beijing is thinking about the problem seriously,"said Tang Damin,a member of Greenpeace East Asia in Beijing.He added that the policy could be far more effective(有效)by using incentives(激励)such as a deposit(押金)return program on plastic products.
