    The new garbage sorting regulation has taken effect in Shanghai starting from July 1. Many citizens are still confused about the classification of the four different types of trash. Thankfully, authorities have released an official guideline to explain the new rules.

The guideline, published by the Shanghai Greenery and Public Sanitation Bureau, provides a rather clear definition on the four kinds of waste: recyclable waste, harmful waste, household food waste and residual (剩余的) waste.

Harmful waste, as the name suggests, includes various poisonous materials like used batteries, light bulbs, out-of-date medicines, paint and pesticides.

Household food waste — which is translated to “wet trash” in Chinese — refers to food leftovers, rotten food, pet food, fruit peels, remains of TCM herbs (中药) and flowers.

Paper, plastic, glass, metal and textiles (纺织品) are counted as recyclable waste.

The definition of residual waste is a little confusing. Anything that is not listed above belongs to this category.

As specific as the new guideline is, residents still have a hard time sorting trash correctly and are finding it challenging to memorize them all. For instance, both plastic bottles and bubble tea or coffee cups are plastic materials. However, the former falls to the category of recyclable waste and the latter belongs to residual waste. To save the hassle, some netizens have come up with their own way to sort trash.

“We should do this from a pig’s angle,” commented one netizen. “Those edible (可食用的) for pigs are household food waste. Those even pigs don’t want to eat are residual waste. If a pig consumes something and dies of it, then something must be harmful waste. Those that can be sold and the money we gain can be used to purchase pigs are recyclable waste.”

The new regulation came into effect on July 1. Those who do not sort their trash properly will be fined RMB 200.

1.What do the old coats that you want to throw away belong to?

A.Harmful waste. B.Wet trash.

C.Recyclable waste. D.Residual waste.

2.What is the common point of “wet trash”

A.They can be broken down easily. B.They all come from plants.

C.They all have bad smells. D.They all have poisonous materials.

3.What is the tone of the netizen like?

A.Serious. B.Humorous.

C.Delightful. D.Uncertain.

4.What does the passage mainly talk about?

A.The four sorts of garbage are forbidden in Shanghai.

B.Shanghai garbage sorting enforcement begins.

C.People are still confused about garbage sorting.

D.The netizens in Shanghai support the garbage sorting policy.

 

1.C 2.A 3.B 4.B 【解析】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了上海的垃圾分类指南以及相关规定出台后,人们对此作出的反应。 1.细节理解题。根据第五段Paper, plastic, glass, metal and textiles (纺织品) are counted as recyclable waste.可知纸、塑料、玻璃、金属和纺织品都是可回收的废物。纺织品属于可回收垃圾,而旧衣服属于纺织品,故选C。 2.推理判断题。根据第四段Household food waste — which is translated to “wet trash” in Chinese — refers to food leftovers, rotten food, pet food, fruit peels, remains of TCM herbs (中药) and flowers.可知,家庭食物垃圾——在中文里被翻译成“湿垃圾”——指的是剩饭剩菜、腐烂的食物、宠物食品、果皮、中草药和鲜花的残留物。由此可知,“湿垃圾”的共同点是它们很容易分解。故选A。 3.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“We should do this from a pig’s angle,” commented one netizen.可知,一位网友评论道:“我们应该从猪的角度来做这件事。”由此可推知,该网民说从猪的角度来看,可见该网民是以一种幽默的语气来表达自己的观点的。故选B。 4.主旨大意题。根据第一段中The new garbage sorting regulation has taken effect in Shanghai starting from July 1.可知,新的垃圾分类规定已于7月1日起在上海生效。后文又介绍了上海的垃圾分类规定的出台及具体内容,如可回收垃圾、厨余垃圾、有害垃圾等的具体内容,以及人们对此的反应。故选B。

    British triathletes (铁人三项运动员) Jess Learmont, and Georgia Taylor-Brown were disqualified from an Olympics qualification race in Tokyo on August 9,2019, because they crossed the finish line while holding hands.

The pair had a huge lead on the rest of their competitors in the event, and after surviving extreme temperatures during the race in the 2020 Olympics host city, they held hands as they finished. At first, Learmonth was considered the champion and Taylor-Brown the second place, but they technically broke competition rules and were punished for it.

As the BBC explained, International Triathlon Union (ITU) competition rule 2.11 states that “athletes who finish in an abnormal tie situation, where no effort to separate their finish times has been made, will be disqualified”.

Looking at the video, they don’t appear to be purposefully attempting to tie, and since Learmonth was the original winner, what does it matter? It looks like they’re both simply trying to support each other after finishing a race during which the temperature was pretty high that the running section was cut from 10 kilometers to five. Safety during a heat wave has been a serious concern, as 57 people in Japan have died since late July, according to Reuters, because of the extreme temperatures.

An appeal against the result was refused, the BBC reported, so Bermuda’s Flora Duffy was declared the champion with Italy’s Alice Betto promoted to second and Britain’s Vicky Holland to third.

1.Why did the two triathletes hold hands as they finished?

A.To fight against the extreme heat.

B.To be both winners in the race.

C.To carry out their plan made before the race.

D.To probably show support to each other.

2.What added difficulty to the race?

A.Hot weather. B.Long running section.

C.New competition rules. D.Powerful competitors.

3.What’s the author’s attitude to the result?

A.Supportive. B.Disapproving.

C.Indifferent. D.Worried.

4.What does the last paragraph tell us?

A.Jess Learmonth dropped to four.

B.ITU didn’t change the final decision.

C.The two triathletes agreed to the result.

D.The two triathletes will race in the Olympics.

Directions: Write an English composition in about 100 words according to the instructions given below in Chinese.

A daughter complained to her father about her life and how things were so hard for her. She did not know she was going to make it and wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved a new one arose.

Her father, a cook, took her to the kitchen, and he filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Soon the pots came to a boil. In one he placed carrots, in the second he placed eggs, and in the last he placed ground coffee beans. He led them sit and boil, without saying a word. In about twenty minutes he turned off the burners. He fished the carrots out and placed them in a bowl. He pulled the eggs out and placed them a bowl. Then he ladled the coffee out and placed it in a mug. Turning to her he asked, “Darling, what do you see?” “Carrots, eggs, and coffee,” she replied.

He brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots and she did and noted that they were soft. Then he asked her to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg. Finally, he asked her to sip the coffee. She smiled as she tasted its rich aroma.

What does it mean, Father? He explained that each of them had faced the same adversity, boiling water, but each reacted differently. The carrot went in strong, hard, and unrelenting. But after being subjected to the boiling water, it softened and became weak. The egg had been fragile. Its thin outer shell had protected its liquid interior, but after sitting through the boiling water. Its inside became hardened. The ground coffee beans were unique; however, after they were in the boiling water, they had changed the water.

Which are you? He asked his daughter.

When adversity knocks on your door, how do you respond? Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean?

阅读上述材料,谈谈面对困境,你想成为“胡萝卜”、“鸡蛋”还是“咖啡豆”?简述原因。字数:100字左右。

Flu is killing us.

Yet we have an annual vaccine, and everyone 3.(qualify) should get it without question. The reality, however, is that less than half Americans get the flu vaccines. And the flu vaccines we have are only 60% effective in the best years and 10% effective in the worst years. We urgently need a much 4.(effective) flu vaccine.

In the U. S alone, seasonal flu can cause up to 36 million infections, three-quarters of a million hospitalizations and 56,000 deaths. We are not investing the resources needed to protect ourselves, our loved 5. and our communities.

Why not? We haven’t been hit by 6. truly destructive widespread disease in a long time. So as individuals, we let down our guard as our leaders quickly defund and destroy the services we need to protect us.

The risk of continued foot dragging is huge. In a severe widespread disease, the U.S. health care system could be defeated in just weeks. Millions of people would be infected by the virus, and would die in the weeks and months following the initial outbreak.

The cost of preventing epidemics is roughly a tenth of 7. it costs to cope with them when they hit. In 2012, a call was issued for an annual billion-dollar U.S. commitment 8. the development of a universal flu vaccine. Six years later, the search for a universal vaccine remains seriously underfunded.

The simple reason lies in our collective satisfaction. 9. headlines about the flu are gone, hospitals are emptied of flu patients, and school and workplace absence rates decline, we go back to business as usual.

Leading scientists and public health officials have the capability to keep us much safer from flu. They need your quick and decisive support to succeed. Your action today 10. be a matter of life and death for you and those you love.
