5 . It can be hard to convince homeowners to use less water on their lawns (草坪), particularly during a hot and dry summer. But tell them it’s a competition for the ugliest lawn, and suddenly they may be more willing to give up using the sprinkler(洒水器).

This clever strategy was employed by the government of Gotland, Sweden’s largest island located in the Baltic Sea. Gotland sees its population double during the summer months as tourists arrive. This puts pressure on the island’s already-limited water supply, which is projected to decrease by 13% between 2021 and 2050, as demand is expected to rise by 40% by 2045.

The campaign, called “Gotland’s Ugliest Lawn”, urged homeowners to compete for the saddest, deadest and brownest yard. They were asked to avoid watering for an entire season, then post a photo of the lawn using a label that linked it to the campaign.

Mimmi Gibson, the acting marketing and brand manager at Region Gotland, said that “the ugliest lawn contest would remind the islanders not to waste water, and to talk about ways they can adapt their gardens to suit the existing conditions and the climate crisis”.

The winner for this year was announced in mid-August, and it’s Marcus Norstrom, who did not water his lawn once throughout the entire summer. His photo shows a large brown space   with some sparse yellow grasses sticking out——the kind of yard in which you would not want to walk barefoot (赤脚地)for risk of hurting your feet. The government must be feeling pleased ; its strategy has worked.

It’s an interesting strategy which attempts to normalize and even celebrate dead grass. It is reasonable to assume that the more people see it around their communities, the more acceptable it will become. They may also grow curious when they realize there are other ways to create and maintain an attractive-looking yard, even without irrigation(灌溉).

1. What’s the aim of the competition for the ugliest lawn?

A．To reduce the waste of water.	B．To limit the growth of local lawns.
C．To strengthen citizens’ friendship.	D．To enhance citizens, health awareness.

2. What do the numbers in paragraph 2 show?

A．Gotland is rich in water resources.

B．People will have no water to drink in 2050.

C．Gotland is faced with serious lack of water.

D．The population of Gotland grows faster and faster.

3. What’s Mimmi Gibson’s attitude towards the ugliest lawn contest?

A．Unconcerned.

B．Doubtful.

C．Unclear.

D．Positive.

4. What is the purpose of the last paragraph?

A．To explain the success of the strategy.

B．To tell citizens the danger of the ugliest lawn.

C．To discuss why it’s dangerous to waste water.

D．To show citizens what the ugliest lawn looks like.

7 . In the United States, farmers who are trying to earn money find the situation difficult to deal with. The United States Department of Agriculture found that more than half of the small farms in California do not make money. But the United Nations reported at least one third of the food is wasted by not selling it out in time.

One California farm family is using social media to change the situation and reduce wasted food. Nick Papadopoulos is the manager of Bloomfield Farms in Sonoma County. He was sad and worried to watch his employees returning from some weekend farmers’ markets with top quality unsold products.

Mr. Papadopoulos said he would find boxes of leaf greens and carrots left in a storehouse. The vegetables would go bad before the next market day. One night, he began thinking about the matter of wasted food when he didn’t know how to deal with 32 cases of broccoli (西兰花). Usually he would give it to chickens and use the rest to make fertilizer (肥料). He thought he shouldn’t let the farm products go to waste.

Then his daughter showed him a book she bought online. Suddenly it hit him that he could offer the food at a low price by advertising it on the farm’s Facebook page on Sunday nights. The deals were open to anyone using the social media website. In the first week, some neighbors came to his home to buy the vegetables. Another week, the buyers were a group of friends. And now many people wait to buy his cheap products.

After his success, Mr. Papadopoulos helped to set up a website called cropmobster. com, which is a place where people deal with food production at low prices, feeding the hungry. Since March, the website has stopped more than 20, 000 kilograms of food from going to waste.

1. According to the United Nations, much food is wasted mainly because          .

A．there is too much food	B．the food can’t be sold out
C．the food isn’t of good quality	D．the prices of the food are high

2. Where did Nick’s farm products use to be sold?

A．On weekend markets.	B．On a food website.
C．In the supermarkets.	D．Beside his farms.

3. How did Nick deal with his unsold farm products in the past?

A．Gave them to the poor.

B．Sold them at lower prices.

C．Put them in a storehouse for the next chance.

D．Gave them to chickens and turned them into fertilizer

4. What does cropmobster. com mainly deal with?

A．Improving the farm products.

B．Improving the farmers’ incomes.

C．Providing cheap food for the poor.

D．Helping farmers sell out farm products.

8 . 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Cleaning your plate may not help feed hungry children today, but the timeworn (陈旧的) advice of mothers everywhere may help reduce food waste from the farm to the fork and make it     1    (easy) to feed the world's     2    (grow) population. Hard data is still being collected, but experts in Chicago say that each American     3    (throw) away 33 pounds of food each month, which means everyone throws away almost 400 pounds of food every year. In richer nations, fruits and vegetables end up in the trash because they aren’t pretty enough     4    (meet) standards, and have gone bad in a home refrigerator. In developing countries, much food goes wrong     5     it gets to the market because of poor roads. But the effect of food waste is far     6    the kitchen. Agriculture is the world's largest     7    (consume) of water, a big consumer of energy. No matter     8    sustainable (可持续的) farming is, if the food is not eaten, it means we don’t make good use of our resources.   In     9     (real), the resources we could use have decreased     10    (sharp). All of us have responsibility for it.

9 . A third of all food produced worldwide is never eaten. But how easy is it to reduce our food waste? Two students have found out.

“That's not a very pleasant smell,” says student Helen Chigwende, standing with the entire contents of her household food waste bin laid out before her. Helen and one of her house-mates, Will Smith, want to learn how to live a more sustainable(可持续的) lifestyle, so they need to understand their habits. That means searching their leftovers or food that has been sent straight to the bin without being touched. They soon find out how much of their food waste could have been avoided. “We've got a piece of sandwich meat that doesn't even seem to be eaten,” Will says, looking at what sill-eatable food he could save. It is formed into a pile of “avoidable” waste, which soon becomes the “unavoidable” things.

“One of the reasons why we end up with a lot of food waste is that food isn't stored properly,” explained Dr Woolley. Sometimes it is placed in an area of the fridge or cupboard where it is not easily noticeable, so it gets left and not eaten in time. There are also two other tips in reducing food waste. “The first is planning,” he says. “Write a shopping list to make sure you're not repeating things you've already got. The second is preparation. Cook the right amount for the people that are going to eat.”

Back at the student house, Helen and Will are cooking vegetarian food to ensure a sustainable lifestyle. The long term test of whether they can keep up with their dietary prices and reduce food waste is yet to come. But both are devoted to making a positive change now. Despite being a “picky cater”, Helen says a week of sticking to health has not been too diff-cult. “It's just about finding things you'll enjoy eating.”

1. What can we learn about Helen from paragraph 2?

A．She has formed a habit of sorting out waste food.

B．She has never touched her household's bin.

C．She has wasted a lot of “avoidable” food.

D．She has calculated the amount of household waste.

2. What does Dr Woolley stress in paragraph 3?

A．Measures to keep food fresh.

B．Negative effects of food waste.

C．Ways of living a healthy lifestyle.

D．Suggestions for reducing food waste.

3. What can be inferred about Helen and Will from the last paragraph?

A．They are trying to live more sustainably.

B．They find it difficult to stick to health.

C．They are tired of eating vegetables.

D．They have difficulty keeping good eating habits.

4. What is the best title for the text?

A．Be Cautious about Food Waste

B．Food Waste Can Be Unavoidable

C．Reduce the Amount of Daily Food

D．Forming Good Dietary Habits Is Important

Many of us know the important of saving water. And we are now wasting a large amount of water in our daily life. About 70% of the water was used in a family every day can be saved if we follow the tip below.

First, use recycled water. Second, when you are taking a bath, turn off the tap a little bit. Remember to shut it off in time if you are not using them. Third, when you are washing dishes, use some pieces of paper to cleaning them first, and then use water to wash them, which will save many water. Only when everyone takes active part can we really save our limiting water resources.
