Ⅳ.话题语篇填空
Scientists visiting tiny Henderson Island in the South Pacific recently made 1.an
alarming discovery.Although it is one of the most remote and 2.previously (previous)
untouched places, the island was covered in plastic waste. They calculated there were
38 million pieces of plastic，3.weighing (weigh) almost 18 tons, with thousands of
new pieces washing up every day. Plastic takes hundreds of years to decompose, so all
the plastic ever 4.produced (produce) still exists somewhere. Around 95% of plastics
made are not recycled and large amounts enter the sea. The problem gets worse as
plastic breaks down into very small 5.pieces (piece) or “micro plastic”， which 6.is
eaten (eat) by fish and leads to massive species loss.The problem has spread too far
7.to ignore (ignore). The plastic on Henderson Island accounts for just two 8.seconds’
(second) worth of global annual plastic production. The production will be more than
triple by 2050，9.when there will be the same weight of plastic in the sea 10.as fish.
Luckily, there are some young minds working to clean up and protect the sea for
future generations. They decided to dedicate their lives to solving this problem.
