We can recycle some of our rubbish.Recycling means that the rubbish will be made into something that can be used again.Recycling helps Earth. And it saves space in rubbish dumps. Half of everything that we put into landfills could be recycled instead. In fact, most things made of paper, metal, glass and plastic can be recycled.Paper can be broken into small pieces and made into new paper. Steel and aluminum cans(金属雄)can be melted down(熔化)and made into new cans. The same is true of glass bottles. This can be done over and over again. Recycling doesn't take as much energy as making these things the first time. So we can use less of Earth's fuel resources.Plastic can be melted down, too. Then it can be formed into park benches, playgrounds and so on. Some people call plastic the "wood" of the future. Things made of plastic will last about 400 years-even if they stay outside in the weather. No wood can do that!（1）The underlined word "landfills" in Paragraph 2 probably means _____________.A. bench factoriesB. places for rubbishC. green mountainsD. recycling centres（2）According to the passage, what happens last to the can?A.

How are we ever going to win anything at the Inter-School Athletics without proper training? At the moment, we only do athletics for one tam and the teachers train us. We need experts(专家)to teach us things like throwing and high jump.I know lots of kids say they're not interested in competitions, but that's because they've never won anything. If they got better training and started winning things, they'd soon change their minds.People always say kids don't get enough exercise. Just because you do gardening outdoors doesn't make it exercise, so I don't see how it matters.Athletics is much better for fitness and lots of kids can have a go at the same time. I don't think there would be enough jobs for everyone in a garden.In fact, I think a garden is a really bad idea. I don't know why we're even considering it.Liz, Grade 8I think a vegetable garden is a great idea. We already do hours of sport, including athletics. And not everyone likes sport.Gardening is a great way to get exercise without worrying about whether you're any good at it, or whether you're going to win. And you really do gel exercise when you garden. There's digging, weeding and watering Even picking things can be hard work – pumpkins aren't light you know!There are lots of kids around here who don't have gardens so they can't grow things even they want to.

From the day she began drawing at the age of two, she was an artist.Alexandra Nechita was born in Romania in 1985 and moved to California when she was still a baby. As a little child, she loved colouring in her colouring books. Her parents hoped she could spend more time playing with other children, so they took away her colouring books.

WhenAlexandra took a local art class, her teacher wasamazed at the young artist’s unusual style ofpainting. Alexandra’s work was similar in someways to the paintings by famous artists likePicasso.

This was a great honour, but Alexandra’s style ofpainting was all her own.Alexandra’s first public show was held at a Los Angeles public library when she was only eight years old. People were amazed at how young Alexandra was, but mostly they loved her imaginative artwork. It did not take long for Alexandra and her work to become famous. She appeared on television programs and in newspapers and magazines all over the world. The sale of a single piece can earn the young artist thousands of dollars. But that is not why Alexandra creates artwork. She just cannot imagine doing anything else that would bring her such joy and satisfaction.Today, Alexandra is a full-time artist.

moved from their house in the countryside to building in Chicago．Maria really liked some things about the city，but she missedher house and yard in the countryside．One day，Maria was in her flat building when she noticed her neighbor，Mrs．Garcia，carrying a gardening tool and a bag of soil．Maria wondered how Mrs．Garcia was able to garden in the city．"My mom used to grow the most delicious vegetables，and I know she misses her garden now that we don't have a yard，"said Maria．Mrs．Garcia laughed．"I'll show you，"she said．Maria thought that Mrs．Garcia would take her to the park，but she took her to the roof （屋顸）．When the door opened，Maria was surprised to see rows of flowers and vegetables on the roof．"What a wonderful garden!"said Maria．Mrs．Garcia told Maria that for a long time the roof was just an empty space．Then some of the people in the building asked the owners to turn it into a community garden．The building owners liked the idea because the plants not only helped to keep the air clean，but they also helped to keep the building cooler during warmer weather．"I plant flowers in my own place，"Mrs．Garcia said，but you would be surprised by how different the plants are up here．Some people grow vegetables just like your mom．You can do some of the same things in the city as in the countryside．You just have to be creative!"3．Which of the following is NOT the advantage of

of your genes from your mother．You got half of your genes from your father．So you have your own set of genes．Each person gets different genes for each body part．That is why you look like but not exactly like your brother or sister．A dominant （显性的）gene shows up most of the time．Brown eyes are dominant over blue eyes．A recessive （隐性的）gene shows up less often．Light hair comes from a recessive gene．Dark hair is more common．Look at the eye color and hair color of the people around you．You will see that this is true．Genes help to make you who you are．But they don't tell the whole story．Your genes may help you to be fast and strong．But you still need to learn how to run or swim or skate well．6．The underlined word"traits"in Paragraph 1means ．A．charactcristics B．expericncesC．achievements

all around．It s about minus 20C today，which for me is very cold，but the regulars（常客）here are often seen walking around in T﹣shirts!Day 5：Thursday December 4I woke up to another beautiful sunny day here in the Antarctic．I'm told it's a bit colder today，about minus 50C，but it's not very windy so it feels warmer．Those of us who are new to the bas have to do a spccial training course before we're allowed to go off base to other stations or to go snowboarding over the nearby hill．Day 7：Saturday December 6Not a cloud in the sky and it's warm enough to sit outside （in a jacket）．The most amazing thing about this place is how the scenery （凤景）changes everyday．At first I thought I was going mad．I'd step outside in the morning and think，"I'm sure that big mountain of ice wasn't there
