If you live in Shanghai, you might have taken a “lesson” in sorting（分类）garbage, as the city introduced new garbage-sorting rule on July 1, 2019. As China’s first city to carry out this strict rule on garbage sorting and recycling, Shanghai requires its people to sort garbage to four types — recyclable, harmful, dry and wet waste. If people fail to sort their garbage properly, they will be fined up to 200 yuan. Since the rule took effect, the amount of total daily waste in Shanghai has been reduced by an average of 15,500 tons, dropping 26 percent from the end of 2018, while the average daily weight of recyclables hits 4,500 tons, five times higher than the end of 2018, according to the Shanghai Landscaping and City Appearance Administrative Bureau（管理局）. The city also rebuilt 21,000 waste-sorting stations and more than 40,000 waste bins have been updated（更新）. The city’s waste collection and transportation system is complete, according to the bureau. “Proper waste sorting protects the environment and saves natural resources,” said Deng Jianping, director of the bureau. “Led by the central government, Shanghai is making efforts to develop long-term solutions to garbage management.” However, there have also been some problems. Some people complained that it is difficult to deal with wet garbage, as they are asked to remove wet garbage from its bag when dropping. According to the sorting rules, the wet garbage must go in the wet waste bin and the bag must go in the dry waste bin. This waste separation is necessary, as it ensures（确保）that the wet garbage will decompose（分解）properly and become useful organic waste, the bureau said. Plastic bags can affect this process. Some people in Shanghai are instead using paper bags that can biodegrade（生物降解）or plastic bags that can be washed and reused, according to Xinhua. 1.People in Shanghai are asked to sort their garbage into the ______ types. A.recyclable, dry, harmful and kitchen waste B.recyclable, kitchen, dry and other “waste” C.harmful, recyclable, dry and “other” waste D.harmful, recyclable, dry and wet waste 2.According to Deng Jianping, Shanghai ______. A.has added more than 40,000 waste bins B.has had problems with garbage management C.will help other cities make garbage- sorting rules D.is still looking for long- term solutions to deal with garbage 3.What does “this process” in the last paragraph refer to? A.The process of sorting garbage. B.The process of dropping wet waste. C.The process of decomposing wet waste. D.The separation of wet waste and dry waste. 4.What does this article mainly tell us? A.Why Shanghai must sort their garbage. B.How Shanghai sorts their garbage. C.The reason of the garbage- sorting rule and some achievements. D.How to protect our environment.

North American black bears are shy animals. They are fearful by nature, and will usually run away if they see or hear people. Because of this, it can be difficult for scientists to learn about these animals. In order to study black bears, researchers from New Jersey, USA, catch bears and use drugs（毒品）to help them go to sleep. Researchers then work out the size and the weight of the bear, take blood to test for diseases（疾病）, remove a tooth and take it to the lab to find out its age. From these studies, researchers want to find out how many bears live in New Jersey, how long they live, and how many babies they produce. But in Minnesota, USA, researchers study bears that are completely awake. The bears know the researchers’ voices and they are not afraid of the research team. With the help of a few grapes to keep the bears busy, researchers can touch them to check their hearts, look at their teeth, and do other jobs. Researchers can also walk or sit with bears for hours and make videos to learn about their everyday lives. In both places, the main purpose is the same— to make sure there is a healthy population of black bears. But the research methods and the kinds of information that researchers are able to collect are quite different. 1.In the first paragraph, we can learn that North American black bears are ______. A.shy and fearful animals B.not found today C.well known to scientists D.not afraid of people 2.The word “remove” in the second paragraph probably means ________. A.pull out B.clean up C.fix up D.pick out 3.Which of the following is NOT included in the New Jersey studies on bears? A.The age. B.The way of their communication. C.The weight. D.The number of babies they produce. 4.What do the two studies have in common? A.Research places. B.The main purpose. C.Research methods. D.Collected information.

Once upon a time, there lived a man who owned a big company. Several years later, his health became worse, so the man decided to choose one of his sons to take his place. He gave each of them a box and said, “I want you to fill your box with something that you believe is the most valuable part of our company. Bring your box back to me in five days.” The day came. The first son filled his box with the company ledger（账本）. “There is nothing better than this. It is the best thing to show our success.” he said. “Good!” the father said. “What about yours?” He turned to the second son. “I put a lot of money in it because money allows our company to work well and allows us to give our workers higher pay.
