【題目】 Record fires sweeping across the Amazon recently have been making the headlines as scientists and environmental groups are worried that they will worsen climate change crisis and endanger biodiversity(生物多樣性）。

As the largest rainforest in the world, the Amazon is often called"the lungs of the world”. It is also home to about 3 million species of plants and animals, and 1 million local people. The vast area of rainforest plays an important role in the world's ecosystem because it absorbs heat instead of reflecting heat back into the atmosphere. It also stores carbon dioxide and produces oxygen, ensuring that less carbon is released, reducing the effects of climate change.

＂Any forest destroyed is a danger to biodiversity and the people who use that biodiversity," Thomas Lovejoy, an ecologist at George Mason University told National Geographic."The great danger is that a lot of carbon goes into the atmosphere,"he stressed."In the midst of the global climate crisis, we cannot afford more damage to a major source of oxygen and biodiversity.The Amazon must be protected,"UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said.

Data from the National Institute for Space Research(INPE)show that the number of forest fires in Brazil quickly increased by 82 percent from January to August a year ago.A total of 71,497 forest fires were registered in the country in the first 8 months of 2019,up from 39,194 in the same period in 2018,INPE said.＂We estimate that the forest areas in the Brazilian Amazon have decreased something between 20 and 30 percent compared to the last 12 months," Carlos Nobre, a researcher at the University of Sao Paulo, told German broadcaster Deutsche Welle.

Brazil owns about 60 percent of the Amazon rainforest,whose degradation(惡化）could have severe consequences for global climate and rainfall.The extent of the area ruined by fires has yet to be determined, but the emergency has gone beyond Brazil's borders.

【1】What is the second paragraph mainly about?

A.The great role of the Amazon rainforest.

B.The effects of consistent climate change.

C.The causes of the decreasing biodiversity.

D.The results of the Amazon rainforest fires.

【2】Why does the author mention the figures in the fourth paragraph?

A.To explain the process of the research.

B.To present the bad influence of forest fires.

C.To prove the great importance of the rainforest.

D.To show the emergency of protecting the rainforest.

【3】What does the author want to tell us in the passage?

A.The dry weather leads to the rainforest fires.

B.The biodiversity makes the rainforest unique.

C.The rainforest fires result in serious consequences.

D.The global climate crisis brings more rainforest fires.

【4】Which section of a magazine might this passage probably be taken from?

A.Climate and life.

B.Nature and geography.

C.Humankind and society.

D.Science and technology.

【題目】 I work at a company where there are lots of employees. I can’t say that I know them all by name, but I know my fair share of them. I think that almost all of them know me. It is all based on one simple principle: I believe that every single person deserves to be acknowledged, even though it is only a smile or a nod of the head.

When I was about ten years old, I was walking down the street with my mother. She stopped to speak to Mr. Lee. I was busy throwing stones at the stop sign. I knew I could see Mr. Lee any old time around the neighborhood, so I didn’t pay any attention to him. After we passed Mr. Lee, my mother stopped me and said something that has stuck with me from that day until now. She said, “You let that be the last time you ever walk by somebody and not open up your mouth to speak, because even a dog can wave its tail when it passes you on the street.” That phrase sounds simple, but it’s been a guidepost for me and the foundation of who I am.

At work, I always used to say hello to the founder of the company and ask him how our business was doing. But I also spoke to the people who cleaned the buildings and asked how their children were doing. I’ve become vice president, but that hasn’t changed the way I approach people. I still follow my mother’s advice. I speak to everyone I see, no matter where I am. You will realize how powerful it is just to open your mouth and say, “Hello.” I’ve learned that speaking to people creates a pathway into their world, and it lets them come into mine, too.

【1】Which of the following can replace the underlined word “acknowledged” in Paragraph 1?

A.Accepted.B.Thanked.

C.Greeted.D.Respected.

【2】Why did the author ignore Mr. Lee?

A.The author often met him.B.The author was too busy.

C.The author didn’t like him.D.The author didn’t know him.

【3】What did the author learn from his mother?

A.Everyone should be treated fairly.B.Speak to everyone you see.

C.Polite behavior is important in your life.D.Friends may disappear from your life any time.

【4】What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?

A.To show respect for his mother.B.To share how to succeed in work.

C.To show how to approach others.D.To share an important principle.

【題目】 The Tokyo Summer Olympics is going green. The 5,000 medals Japan has made are more special than most.

One novel focus of the Tokyo Olympics is to be“sustainable”—to avoid using too many natural resources, so that the games are easy on the environment. As part of this goal, the organizers decided to make all of the Olympic medals out of metal recycled from old electronics.

Almost all electronics are made with small amounts of "precious metals", like gold and silver. But collecting enough of these metals to make 5,000 medals was a huge challenge. That's because the amount of metal in each device is tiny. It would take about 20,000 cell phones to get just 1 kilogram of gold.

Beginning in April 2017, the organizers placed collection boxes around the country, and asked people to turn in their old electronic devices. Soon people began to respond to the initiative, turning in smartphones, digital cameras, hand-held games, and laptops. At first, collection went slowly, but soon more and more areas began to take part. By the end, 1,621 local governments had helped out with the collection process.

Then came the job of breaking those devices down into smaller pieces. After being taken apart and sorted, the small electronics were smelted (熔煉) to get all the gold, silver, and bronze elements. This is a tricky job, which calls for careful attention and good skill. It's also dangerous, because some of the metals and other things aren't safe for people to touch or breathe.

By the end of March, 2019, the organizers had hit their targets of getting enough metal for the medals. They had collected around3xkilograms of gold, 4,100 kilograms of silver and 2,200 kilograms of bronze. And now all the 5,000 medals are available for the would-be winners.

【1】What can we know about the Tokyo Olympics medals?

A.They are hugely valuable.

B.They are of high quality.

C.They are designed uniquely.

D.They are made from e-waste.

【2】What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us?

A.The difficulty of making the medals.

B.The process of collecting old electronics.

C.The initiative to recycle used smartphones.

D.The classification of the collected devices.

【3】The underlined word “tricky”in Paragraph 5 means“ ”.

A.creativeB.well-paid

C.demandingD.time-consuming

【4】What's the purpose of Tokyo's way of making the medals?

A.To advocate sustainable use of resources.

B.To promote the spirit of Olympic Games.

C.To introduce a new technique to make medals.

D.To call people's attention to environmental damage.
