    1    1:47 a.m. on Sep.21^st 1999, a terrible earthquake of magnitude 7.6 shook Taiwan. By 22:00 p.m,     2     number of people who were killed in the earthquake     3     ( reach) 1670.

The earthquake had the electricity     8     ( cut) off. And lots of buildings and bridges     9     ( destroy). It is the strongest earthquake     10     has ever hit Taiwan in a century.

3 . Used clothes are rather difficult to deal with. They are made from chemicals, cotton, or wool, which consume many resources in the process of manufacturing and, if burned, they pollute the air and increase the carbon pressure upon the environment. Therefore, it is a good thing for used clothes to be recycled in factories instead of being disposed of in garbage cans to be incinerated or transported to landfill sites. In that sense, the companies that put the donation boxes in communities have done something good and beneficial.

However, if they mean to recycle used clothes, they need to tell people that and label their collection boxes as "recycle boxes" instead of misleading people by calling them "donation boxes". People expect their "donated" clothes to go to the poor, not factories.

People need to be more realistic as well. Donating clothes may not bring much help to the poor. Especially, as it takes a lot of human labor to collect the used clothes, sort them, clean and disinfect them and deliver them to less-developed areas. Every step costs money and sometimes the total cost might even be higher than buying new clothes in large quantities. Sometimes the poor might not need used clothing, but they cannot trade the clothes for what they do need.

It might be a sad fact, but the most effective and efficient way of helping poor people is donating money and letting them get what they need themselves. So, when people want to send a helping hand, they need to donate money, instead of simply donating their used, unwanted clothes.

B．Unwanted clothes can be recycled in donation boxes.

D．Used clothes should be recycled in factories.

A．The poor don’t need clothing donations any longer.

3. What does the author really mean by mentioning “a sad fact”?

A．The poor cannot get help from it.

B．The factories cannot benefit from it.

C．It’s not convenient for the residents.

D．It gets the communities into trouble sometimes.

4. What’s the author’s attitude towards “donation boxes in communities”?

A．Supportive	B．Disapproving
C．Indifferent	D．Doubtful

My family took an amazed trip to the northwest last summer. At the first ,we flew to Lanzhou but then visited the famous Iron Bridge there.We also tasted Lanzhou beef noodles, which were the most delicious noodles I had never had.   Two days late， we went to the Mogao caves on the Silk Road. That impressed me most was the fantastic wall paintings.   Finally，we reach our final destination，the Qinghai Lake，surrounded by mountains. The scenery was unbelievable beautiful. We found volunteers collecting rubbishes along the bank and we joined them too.   Only then I realize we could make a difference to our environment.

6 . It's important to learn how we can protect the environment. Here are 5R rules for us.

Reduce. If you want to reduce waste, you should use things more wisely.    1     If everyone uses paper carelessly, soon we would not have any trees left. Other things are also being wasted, and people don't know what to do with the waste in big cities. So it is necessary to reduce the amount of waste we produce.

Reuse. You should always think of reusing things before throwing them out. For example,    2    . In a family, you may pass on such clothes to younger brothers or sisters.

Recycle. Bottles, cans and paper can easily be recycled. By doing so we can save lots of time and money. For example,    3    . The metal can be used to make new coke cans.

Recover.    4    . You have two choices: one is to throw the apples away, the second is to throw the rotten ones and keep the good ones. In this way, you are recovering the eatable parts of food.

Repair. If one of the legs of your table is broken, you should repair it. If you want to buy something newer and better, it is better for you to sell the old table, or     5    

Learn the rules to protect our environment. Let's try our best to make the earth cleaner and more beautiful.

A．give the clothes you do not use or the ones which are too small to the poor.

B．coke cans are sent to a factory, where they are smashed flat and melted.

C．A large number of trees are being cut down to make paper.

8 . Our mother earth is going through a very tough situation and we, the entire human race, are destroying our environment or unconsciously without even realizing its consequences. Now we have to act very smartly and plan something to sustain what we still have, getting all necessary support from nature to lead healthy lives.

Gardening is always an excellent and environmentally friendly idea. If you can go for sustainable gardening, then it will be even more useful for all. Gardening is a favorite hobby for many. It is time to channelize your hobby towards a more meaningful motivation.

When we do gardening we need to use different ingredients(材料) to grow plants. Some of them are natural resources like water, soil, sunshine, and many things like this. Using these resources smartly is a part of sustainable gardening. Some simple techniques include: use less water and organic things to grow plants; try to store rainwater so that you can use them for gardening; try using less energy to drive devices; avoid using plastics in any form while gardening; reuse the leaves from your garden to fertilize them. These are the basic sustainable measures. To do so we need to have proper knowledge about gardening and its requirements so that we can use proper resources without wasting any of them.

In today’s busy life we don’t get much time to spend on our environment. Gardening gives us a chance to do so. We can also have some pesticide-free(无农药的) and fresh food if we grow them in our garden. This is the right time to do some good to protect our own environment and gardening is one of the easiest ways. Do you want to start gardening, but you’re not sure how?
