21、   Everyone knows by now that plastic pollution is a huge problem for the environment. Beijing, for example, has dealt with this by banning (禁止) thin plastic bags, plastic tableware (餐具) and other plastic items in supermarket, restaurants and hotels since May 1, 2020.

But an even better solution might be on the way. Researchers at a French company called Carbios have discovered a bacterial enzyme that can break down plastic. The enzyme, which was first found in compost (堆肥) leaves, turns plastic into chemical “building blocks” that can then be used to create new products, according to the Guardian.

The new enzyme was uncovered in research that was published in the journal Nature. Researchers studied over 100,000 microorganisms (微生物) to find one that could break down plastic quickly. The leaf compost enzyme was first discovered in 2012. Scientists changed its genes (基因), allowing it to break down 90 percent of one ton of plastic in less than 10 hours.

“It had been completely forgotten, but it turned out to be the best,” said Professor Alain Marty, chief science officer at Carbios.

The enzyme especially breaks down PET, a type of plastic that is most commonly used to produce plastic bottles and food packaging. It is the fifth most common type of plastic that we use.

Carbios said it is working together with companies like Pepsi and Nestle—major consumers of plastic themselves—to develop their research and start using the enzyme on an industrial scale (范围), according to Forbes.

【1】According to the passage, what is a huge problem for the environment?

A．Plastic bags.

B．Plastic tableware.

C．Plastic bottles.

D．Plastic pollution.

【2】What does the underlined word “enzyme” in paragraph 2 mostly probably stand for?

A．A type of plastic that we use.

B．A chief science officer at Carbios.

C．A French company called Carbios.

D．A thing that can break down plastic.

【3】What can we know about the enzyme according to the passage?

A．It was used to create new things.

B．It was first found in compost leaves.

C．It was studied by the journal Nature.

D．It was never been forgotten by the scientists.

【4】Why is Carbios working together with companies like Pepsi and Nestle?

A．To start using plastic.

B．To make more money.

C．To sell bottles and food.

D．To develop their research.

22、A poor farmer had a friend who was famous for the wonderful apples he grew.

One day, his friend gave the farmer a young apple tree and told him to take it home and plant it. The farmer was pleased with the gift, but when he got home, he did not know where to plant it.

He was afraid that if he planted the tree near the road, strangers would steal the fruit. If he planted the tree in one of his fields, his neighbors would come at night and steal some of the apples. If he planted the tree near his house, his children would take the fruit. Finally, he planted the tree in his woods where no one could see it. But without sunlight and good soil, the tree soon died.

Later the friend asked the farmer why he had planted the tree in such a poor place. “What’s the difference?” the farmer said angrily. “If I had planted the tree near the road, strangers would have stolen the fruit. If I had planted the tree in one of my fields, my neighbors would have come at night and stolen some of the apples. If I had planted it near my house, my own children would have taken the fruit.”

“Yes,” said the friend, “but at least someone could have enjoyed the fruit. Now you not only have robbed (抢夺) everyone of the fruit, but also you have destroyed (推毁) a good apple tree!”

【1】Why didn’t the farmer want to plant the tree in his field?

A．He thought strangers would steal the fruit.

B．He thought the tree would die.

C．He thought his children would take the fruit.

D．He thought his neighbors would steal the fruit.

【2】Why did the young tree die in the end?

A．Strangers pulled out the tree.

B．His neighbors cut down the tree.

C．His children broke the tree.

D．There was no sunlight and the soil was poor.

【3】What does the story tell us?

A．We should care about others’ feelings.

B．We should learn to share beautiful things.

C．The young tree can grow up one day.

D．The young tree can provide apples for us when it grows up.

23、   We send our children to school to prepare them for the time when they will be big and will have to work for themselves. They learn their own language (语言) so that they will be able to tell others clearly what they want and what they know, and understand what others tell them. They learn foreign languages in order to be able to understand the people from other countries and make themselves understood. They learn history to know something about people they meet every day. What they learn at school is, of course, quite useful, but is that the only reason why they go to school?

No, there is more in education (教育) than just learning facts. We go to school, above all (首要的是), to learn how to learn, so that when we leave school, we can continue (继续) to learn. A man who really knows how to learn will always be successful, because whenever (无论何时) he has to do something new, he will quickly teach himself how to do it in the best way. The uneducated person, on the other hand, is not able to do something new, or do it badly. So the purpose (目的) of school is not only to teach the students these useful subjects but also teach the way to learn.

【1】Children go to school because ________.

A.they can grow fast at school B.they can learn facts

C.they have to work for themselves at the moment D.their parents have to prepare them for their future

【2】The underlined word “successful” means “________” in Chinese.

A.忧郁的 B.失败的 C.迷茫的 D.成功的

【3】The sentence “there is more in education than just learning facts” means “________”.

A.learning facts isn’t the only thing in education B.there are more facts to learn in education

C.learning facts is more important than education D.education is just learning facts

【4】What does an educated person do when he meets something new?

A.He won’t try his best to do it well. B.He’ll quickly find the best way out.

C.He won’t be able to do it well. D.He will know how to learn.

【5】The main idea of the passage is that ________.

A.children must go to school

B.the subjects at school are useful

C.parents should send their children to school

D.children should be taught not only to learn but also how to learn

24、Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words(在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给）

“Drink milk. It’s good for you!” You’ve probably heard that many times and thought it was true. Milk has Ca which is necessary for keeping bones and teeth h【1】 and strong. The U.S. government even makes milk part of the National School Lunch Program, saying that students should drink one cup of fat-free or low-fat milk each meal.

Last Thursday, h【2】, a group of doctors asked the government to remove milk from the lunch program. The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine(PCRM)says, “Milk is high in sugar, high in fat and high in animal protein (蛋白质), which has bad influences on health.” The PCRM also says there are better and healthier ways to get Ca such as e【3】 beans, broccoli (花椰菜) and tofu.

Orange juice also has it. “One of the only reasons people need it is that it can help build strong bones,” says Dr. Neal Barnard, president of the PCRM. “But milk may not be the best way to get Ca your body needs.”

Of course, Ca is important for bones and teeth, but there are o【4】 things that influence your bone strength such as how much vitamin D you take in and whether you do e【5】 every day. Some nutritionists (营养学家) disagree with the i【6】 that milk isn’t important. For example, Keri Gans says, “I don’t think it is right to remove milk from Children, e【7】 from those who are unable to meet their nutrient needs for the day.”

The U.S. government is studying the advice of the PCRM, but a decision may be a long way off. Meanwhile, Marion Nestle, a professor at New York University, puts it best: “Milk has nutrients. Other foods have the same nutrients. It’s just a food. Like other foods, too much might be a problem.”
