New uses for old clothing
Nowadays, What we're more wasteful than ever-
buying, using and throwing things away
do you think of the "new" hat
without thinking about the costs. We need to start living
I made for my sister? It used
more responsibly- but how? One answer is to upcycle (再
to be my mum's sweater.One answer is to upcycle (再生利用) .
If you're like me, you might already make soil for gardening from food waste and use empty
paper boxes as storage space. Did you know you can apply (应用) the same way to old clothing?
You just need imagination!
I started upcycling clothing. Making new things out of old clothes is the best way to mix my
talent and my interest. Do you upcycle? If so, what new things have you made? If not, why not
give it a try?
Terry B Posted at 9:08 a. m. on 11th February 2018
Why don't you give your old clothes to people in need? I even give away the most
expensive things I don't wear anymore. So I can help the environment while giving
something useful to people in need.
Gina Posted at 9:28 a. m. on 1lth February 2018 early
Good point! I'm talking about only the oldest clothing in your room — the clothes
that are too old to be worn by others. The same idea goes for food waste at
restaurants and supermarkets.
Before upcycling food that can still be eaten, for example, using it to make soil, we
should give it to those in need.
Betty99 Posted at 10:18 a. m. on llth February 2018
I've made shopping bags out of T-shirts and dog toys out of socks.
Upcycling clothing is a fun hobby, but the most important thing is that it makes me
feel like I'm living less wastefully.
16. What is special about the hat?
A. It came from an old sweater. B. It was given by Gina's mum.
C. It was new and expensive. D. It was a gift from Gina's sister.

Traffic lights are red, yellow and green. They are very important signals (信号). Traffic lights
are usually placed at busy street corners to help control traffic Sometimes, they are on streets near
schools and shops, too. Most young children are taught what each of the colored lights means, so
everybody can stay safe.
The first traffic signals were used for trains. The signals were put alongside railway tracks
( (轨道). The color red was used to mean "stop" because it warned people of danger. A red light
was also the easiest color to see from a distance. Train drivers could see the red "stop" light ahead
and had enough time to slow down and stop their trains. A green light was used to mean "take
care" and a white light meant "go".
However, there were many dangerous accidents on the train tracks. Some train drivers
thought a star shining in the night sky was a white light that meant "go"". So the signals wereswapped. The "go" light was changed to green and the "take care" light was changed to white.
During these times, people travelled by train or in carts pulled by horses. Years later, when
cars were built, people began to drive them because they could travel much faster than horses.
However, the road rules for drivers were not very clear and many people were hurt crossing the
roads. Yellow warning signs had to be placed beside the roads to remind drivers to take care and
allow people to cross safely.
Today, towns and cities all over the world have traffic lights. Red and green lights match the
signals used on the railways. Yellow lights are easy to see, so they are used to warn drivers that
they should slow down and prepare to stop.
19. Why was the color red used to mean "stop"?
A. It reminded people of traffic rules.
B. It helped trains run smoothly.
C. It gave people a warning of danger.
D. It was the first color people thought of.
20. What does the underlined word "swapped" in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Designed. B. Exchanged. C. Suggested. D. Compared.
21. In which order did the "take care" light develop?
a. A white light b. A green light. c. A yellow light.
C. a一c一b B. b一c一a A. a一b一c D. b一a一c
22. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The advantages of traffic lights. B. The history of traffic lights.
C. The importance of traffic lights. D. The meanings of traffic lights.
C
A lot of animals travel from one place to another. We call this migration.
In Africa, large animals, like elephants and zebras, migrate to find food and water. They
usually follow the same ways every year.
A lot of birds migrate to find food and better weather, too. They are usually birds that eat
insects. They spend the summer in northern Europe, because there are lots of insects there. In the
winter there aren't any insects, so the birds fly south to southern Europe and Africa.
Some insects migrate, too. In North America, millions of monarch butterflies fly south to
spend the winter in Mexico, California and Florida, where it's warmer. They travel 50-65 km each
day and they travel about 1, 125 km.
Some fish migrate to breed (繁殖). Salmon (鲑鱼) can swim over 20, 000 km in their life.
They are born in rivers in Ireland, Scotland and other places in northern Europe. The young fish
swim down the river to the sea and into the Atlantic Ocean. They live in the ocean until they are
adults. Then they return to the river where they were born. They lay their eggs in the river and
then they usually die. Salmon do this, because their eggs are safer in the river. Other fish can't eat
them.Arctic terns (北极燕鸥) travel the furthest when they migrate. They spend the summer in the
Arctic, but when winter comes they fly to the Antarctic, because it's summer there. The next year
they fly back to the Arctic again. In one year these small birds travel 36, 000km from one end of
the earth to the other and back again. Nobody knows how they do it.
23. According to the passage, monarch butterflies in North America migrate to___________.
A. find insects B. look for water C. find better weather D. produce young
24. Adult salmon swim back to the river because A. they won't be eaten by other big fish B. they
want to lay eggs in a safer place C. they are getting ready to die there
D. they want to go where they grew up
25. Which of the following is true about animals' migration?
A. Elephants in Africa usually travel the same way each year.
B. Most birds fly to southern Europe and Africa in summer.
C. Some insects travel 1, 125 km each day.
D. Salmon swim 20, 000 km each year.
26. The example of Arctic terns in the last paragraph is used mainly to show _________.
A. the distance of migration B. the purpose of migration
C. the direction of migration D. the time of migration
D
How would you feel if someone decided to take away your park? Well that's what's
happening in my community. There's a park that some people want to turn into a golf course (高
尔夫球场). Let me tell you why I think it's a bad idea.
First, a park is meant to be for the whole community. Not everyone likes golf, so not
everyone will get to use the park. This isn't fair. A community park should have open spaces for
everyone to use.
Second, to make way for the golf course, lots of playground equipment (设施) will have to be
moved or knocked down, which is a waste of time and money. It's also a waste of perfectly good
equipment. The swings, for example, will probably just end up as litter.
Third, what about giving young people something to do? Not all kids are crazy about golf.
At the moment, the park has a skating place and a playground. These attract lots of kids from the
community. If you turn the park into a golf course, these kids won't have anywhere to go and they
won't have anything to do.
This means that they will stay at home and turn on a video game rather than get some
exercise. It also means that they might be out on the street causing trouble. Wouldn't it be better to
give them something to do at the park?
Finally, golf is expensive. Building a golf course and maintaining (维护)it costs a lot of
money. Who is going to pay to maintain the golf course? What about those people who can't
afford to join a golf club? That means that the golf course will only be available to people with
lots of money.Turning our park into a golf course is a bad idea. I suggest we have a community meeting
before plans go any further.
27. Some people want to change the park into ______________.
A. a golf club B. a golf course C. a park D. a skating place
28. According to Paragraph 4, having nowhere to go will make some children
A. go to get some exercise B. fall in love with golf
C. play video games at home D. go to the street and make friends
29. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?
(P=Paragraph)
30. What is the writer's purpose in writing this passage?
A. To help carry out further plans.
B. To make the park more beautiful.
C. To encourage children to go skating.
D. To stop the golf course from being built.
第二节 (共5小题, 每小题2分, 满分10分)
下面文章中有五处 (第31—35题) 需要添加标题。请从以下选项 (A、B、C、D、E和F)
中选出符合意思的标题。选项中有一项是多余选项。

Hopes, ambitions (抱负), dreams. How many of yours will you achieve? When you look
back at your life in the future, will you have good memories of all he things that you did? Or will
you regret all the things that you didn't do?
Of course, there's no easy road to success, but one thing is certain: success won't come if you
don't do anything. So how do you do it? This four-step model will help you to make your dreams
come true.
Step 1: 3 2
What would you like to do? Write down all your ambitions. They may be very general, such
as I would like to be fitter. I want to be famous or It would be nice to have more friends. Or they
may be more specific, like I've always wanted to play a musical instrument.
Step 2: 3 3
Now you need to do two things:
1. Choose one or two ambitions. If you try to do everything, you won't do anything.
2. Set a time limit (限定). This is very important, because you will have a goal and you will
also know when you have reached it.So, for example, I would like to be fitter. in Step 1 now becomes I will be fit enough to join a
half-marathon race by the end of August.
Step 3: 3 4
Now that you've made your choice, what are you actually going to do to achieve your goal?
So, in our example, I will be fit enough to join a half-marathon race by the end of August.
becomes I'm going to join a running club. or I'm going to go jogging three times a week.
Step 4: 3 5
This is when you change your intentions ( 意图) into specific actions. Prepare to do
something at a specific time. If you don't do this, your dreams and plans will just stay as dreams
and plans. So now I'm going to join a running club. becomes I'm meting the president of the
Cheetahs Running Club on Monday evening at 5∶30.
Don't let your ambitions die. Follow this four-step plan and make your dream come true.
A. Change I would like to.. . to I will. . .
B. Change I did. . . to I do. . .
C. How to be successful
D. Change I'm going to. .. to I'm doing.. . on. .. at. ..
E. Think about your ambitions
F. Change I will. . . to I'm going to. . .
