9、, Africa. As a teenager, Ceesay was forced to drop out of school because of poverty. She carried some goods with many girls like her to sell in the market to raise herself At that time, the plastic bags, being strong and light, became popular in Gambia. The problem was that people did not reuse the
10、bags and simply threw them behind their homes. Over time, the houses were surrounded by trash.Ceesay lived in such an environment for many years. She kept learning from the surrounding environment and planned to take action to change. In 1997, she started a recycling movement called One Plastic Bag
11、in Gambia. She educated women in Gambia to recycle plastic waste into income for themselves. In the beginning, the movement had a mission to educate their village colleagues about the need to reuse garbage and recycle plastic waste, rather than letting the garbage increase behind their homes.Over ti
12、me, the movement became big and able to support and provide income for women around. It was also able to greatly reduce plastic waste in Gambia. But the work of collecting trash turned to be taxing. During the rainy season, plastic waste became wet and difficult to take, and after that it still took
13、 patience to dry it before it could be processed.Ceesay said, “As a habit, people are used to pouring their garbage behind their houses, and because it is not visible, they forget it. But the bad effects again knock on your door very quickly dirty air, various diseases and so on. Of course, if one m
14、ans house is clean but his neighbors is not, then the man is also not healthy.”For 17 years, Ceesay has contributed to one of the most important problems about the plastic waste.

18、ems contribute greatly to climate change.C.Valuing the relationship between neighbors is important.D. Dealing with plastic waste is a shared responsibility in communities.CScientists have long thought about whether each animal species has a different language, much like different human languages tha
19、t we cannot understand. Language experts agree on the fact that the way animals communicate through various calls does not fit the definition of human languages.Animal calls are not considered a language because the calls are limited to signals related to food activities, warning about the presence
20、of enemies and so on. They lack the characteristic of productivity that all human languages share. That is humans create new expressions every day by combining different words to express meanings. Animal calls are fixed in their meanings, while human language goes further and includes expressions of
21、 complex ideas that do not have a limit.However, animals do communicate. People who study humans believe that people speak with their entire bodies. To express a message, one does not always need words. Have you ever shared a private joke with your friends across the table? All you did was to give t
22、hem a self-satisfied smile, Animals can communicate in much the same way as humans do. Although animals do not have the ability to speak words, they can use other methods, such as gestures, movements, calls and their sense of smell. In short, most of their communication is not related with speech.If
23、 animals can make noises, why cant they talk? Humans and animals both have the necessary organs that produce sounds, such as lungs, throat, voice box, lips and tongue. But the differences lie in the movement and relative position of these organs that make it possible for us to speak.When humans deve
24、loped from apes, a lot of our features were improved to better shape sounds along the way. The mouth started getting smaller and the neck grew longer. All other animals, including our closest animal relatives chimpanzees, have little similarity, which determines humans ability to speak.8.What does t

27、ody language.C.They also have difficulty understanding some words.D.They master more ways than humans to communicate.11.Why do animals foil to speak according to the last two paragraphs?A.Their lifestyles require less communication.B.They have a slow change in mental movement.C.They lack fully devel
28、oped language-related organs.D.Their intelligence determines their poor ability to speak.DYouve probably heard it a dozen times by now. But here it goes again: Sleep is important. Your mental health and immune (免疫时)system are connected to your sleeping habits. So are your grades, a new study finds.
29、Sleep accounts for nearly one-fourth of the difference among students grades in a class. So even if you spend hours studying for a test but get too little sleep, you might still do poorly.Typically, peoples sleep schedules are messy and can not be known in advance. Professor Jeffrey Grossman of Mass
30、achusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge wanted to see if sleep links to peoples learning performance even when a study was done with people who kept such true-to-life schedules at home. So he turned to Fitbits, which can check how long people sleep and how frequently they wake up. And the res
31、earchers looked for 100 students. They focused on these students sleep patterns in the days and weeks before exams and then compared them to these students test scores.“How much time a person sleeps the night. before an exam doesnt affect that persons grade,” Grossman says. “A student who sleeps 7 h
32、ours every night will do better than a student who sleeps 7.5 hours one night and 6.5 hours another night.”“Its important for people to know that if their Fitbits tell them that they have terrible sleep, that may not actually be so,” Michael Scullin, a sleep scientist at Baylor University says. Gros
33、sman also raises this point. Fitbit, Inc. makes this advanced tool. But it doesnt share how its tool works. This leaves a question about whether the tool is really correct when checking a students sleep. Even so, Scullin emphasizes that there are enough data supporting ties between sleep and how wel
34、l someone performs.“Students need more sleep and less late evening use of phones and other screens. Even with after-school activities and schoolwork, they need to get enough sleep,” Grossman says.12.What factor did Grossman consider when conducting his study?A.Students mental health.B.Students learn
35、ing habits.C.Students previous grades.D.Students usual sleep state.13.What is the major finding of Grossmans study?A.Study pressure makes students go to sleep late.B.People should follow their own sleep schedules.C.Regular sleep has a good impact on learning performance.Dr The necessary amount of sl
36、eep depends a lot on peoples health.14.What can we learn about the Fitbits from Paragraph 4?A.They need further improvement.B.They are designed for teenagers.C.They affect peoples quality of sleep.D.They can give sleep advice for each user.15.What does the passage mainly talk about?A.Teenagers sleep
37、-related problems.B.Learning results and enough sleep.C.High school students sleeping habits.D.Methods to improve learning interest.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选顼。选项中有两项为多余选项。I have worked for a local charity for many years.

The job sometimes was tiring. 16 And one of our favorite activities is called “ARK night” A couple of times a year, on a Sunday night, all kids in the charity went into our community to perform kind acts for others.17 One group typically goes downtown and hands out sandwiches, water and bread.
39、Another group makes posters and goes to local police and fire stations to say “Thank you”. Our group often visits nursing homes and hospitals.One time, the group I was leading left post-it notes (便利贴) with positive messages on the cars in a hospitals parking lot.
