文章大意：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了泰国东海岸的Koh Khai Hua Roh岛上有一棵孤独的树，它受到了游客的欢迎。最近，一组泰国记者去观察这棵树，却发现它已经被涌入的游客严重损坏。作为回应，Koh Mak Tambon行政组织计划开展一场教育活动，并采取更严厉的措施，比如限制游客人数和只在特定季节开放来保护这一景观。

Thailand’s “loneliest tree”, a tree growing on a rocky island only a few meters in diameter, is being seriously threatened by tourists desperate to get a selfie (自拍) with it.

The small patch of land located just off the country’s eastern coast in Trat Province has been called “Koh Khai Hua Roh” because it looks similar to the island featured in drawings of funny scenes involving a man and a woman trapped on an island in the popular Khai Hua Roh comic. The uninhabited island is quite a sight to behold, as it is home to a lonely tree that struggle to live despite being surrounded by salt water. Unfortunately, the tree’s popularity might just be the death of it.

On Tuesday, the Koh Mak Tambon Administrative Organization led a team of Thai reporters to Koh Khai Hua Roh in order to observe the country’s loneliest tree. They knew that photos of the lonely tree shared on social media had been attracting an increasing number of tourists to the island, but they had no idea how much damage that could produce.

According to The Nation, several small branches of the tree were found broken off, the tree’s exposed roots appeared to have been stepped heavily on to the point where the outer cover has peeled off (剥落), and the trunk appears to be tilting (倾斜) more than it did a few years back.

Koh Khai Hua Roh island is so tiny that it can only accommodate up to five people at a time, but local authorities admit that selfie-addicted tourists sometimes crowd there in much greater numbers, with some even climbing the poor tree.

The Koh Mak Tambon Administrative Organization plans to kickstart an educational campaign to hopefully teach people to conserve iconic landmarks like Thailand’s loneliest tree. It also plans to take more drastic actions, like restricting the number of tourists allowed to visit the island and making the island only accessible in certain seasons.

4. The name of the island is related to .

A．a lonely tree	B．a popular comic
C．a controversial selfie	D．a threatened tourist

5. How is the loneliest tree according to The Nation?

A．It is under protection.	B．It proves inaccessible
C．It has become less popular.	D．It is in a really bad state.

6. What is the last paragraph mainly about?

A．Ways to establish landmarks.

B．Measures to advertise the island.

C．Responses to the damage from tourists.

D．Actions to attract more tourists.

7. From which is this text most probably taken?

A．A geography textbook.	B．A news report.
C．A health magazine.	D．A travel guide.

文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了随着越来越多的销售品牌支持和推出无包装产品的销售,零浪费商店正逐渐成为主流。

Refill shops have been around for a decade. The first stores were small but appealed to many people who wanted to ditch plastic packaging and be more environmentally friendly. These zero-waste grocery stores allowed people to bring in their own refillable containers to buy food stored in large bins.

While these small shops are common in Europe and the US, they have recently gone from being trendy to being very mainstream. That’s because the UK supermarket giant ASDA rolled out its own chain of sustainable refill shops, according to The Grocer.

These refill stores offer the usual bins and have many household brands without the excessive(过度的)packaging including Kellogg, Yorkshire Tea, and Nestlé. Even Unilever and P&G shampoos and soaps are represented.

“We hope the varieties offered across our range of 100 branded and own-label loose(裸包装的)products can bring together several simple ways for customers to reduce, reuse or recycle at home,” ASDA director of commercial sustainability Susan Thomas told The Grocer.

Cutting back on single-use plastics is a big win for the planet while many people make an effort to recycle. But according to Greenpeace, while the government of the UK claims that 50 percent of household plastics is being recycled, over half of that is being sent to other countries. There is no way to know how much is actually being recycled. The best way to ensure that plastic doesn’t end up incinerated(焚烧), in landfills, or in the oceans, is not to use it in the first place. That’s where refill shops can help.

Many of these shops stock products from brands that are also being enthusiastic about selling sustainably sourced and local products, which helps reduce your carbon footprint. Only buying the amount of food that you actually need will also help cut down on food waste and the environmental cost of food production.

8. What does the underlined word “ditch” in paragraph 1 probably mean?

A．Abandon.

B．Improve.

C．Consider.

D．Recycle.

9. How does ASDA make refill shops become mainstream?

A．By selling cheaper refillable containers.

B．By prohibiting plastic packaging widely.

C．By funding these first small refill shops.

D．By building its own chain ofrefill shops.

10. What’s the function of paragraph 5?

A．Warning grocers of plastic problems.

B．Showing the necessity of refill shops.

C．Telling the harm of single-use plastics.

D．Giving the examples of going zero-waste.

11. What are we advised to do to help protect the environment?

A．Purchase more products from brands.

B．Send plastic products to other countries.

C．Ensure wasted food ends up in landfills.

D．Avoid buying more food than we need.

文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究发现，该研究表明人们处于自然环境中可以减少医疗保健的费用。

It’s not hard to be poetic about the broad and deep benefits of spending time in natural spaces,from amazing national parks to the simple loveliness of a walk around a city park or tree-lined neighborhood street, and some time working in the dirt of your own garden.

A new study from researchers at Clemson University has found another benefit to simply putting your body in a natural space: it can lower the amount of money you spend on health care.

“The mechanisms linking nature and health are very diverse,” said Matthew H. E. M. Browning, the principal investigator on the study, "but the benefit is believed to be in part because being in green space can decrease stress, promote healthy behaviors and enable you to breathe fresh air.”

Browning and his team used satellite data to investigate how much green space was within 250,500 and 1,000 meters(820,1,640,and 3,280 feet) of five million northern California residents who were insured by Kaiser Permanente. They then determined the costs the insurance company paid out to those same members over a two-year period. They took into account age,gender,race and a number of neighborhood characteristics including population density and education levels.

Even with all these factors included into their analysis, the researchers found that those who lived near the most green space had an average of $374 less per year in health care expenses compared to those who lived farther from natural spaces.

The researchers hope their findings will support public policies that prioritize(优先考虑) natural elements in residential areas. For you, maybe this learning will inspire you to plant a tree or a potted flower today-or create a beautiful garden to enjoy, with a view of some health-giving, green goodness.

12. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 1?

A．Lead in the topic of the text.	B．Summarize a recent study result.
C．Provide some advice for readers.	D．Raise readers’ interest in exercise.

13. What does Matthew H.E.M.Browning try to explain in paragraph 3?

A．Why spending time in nature benefits health.

B．Nature and health can affect each other deeply.

C．How residential green space improves air quality.

D．The benefit of walking in a natural space is obvious.

14. What do the researchers expect of their findings?

A．They can encourage further relevant research.

B．They can delight current insurance companies.

C．They can boost the establishment of green space.

D．They can remind us to purchase more insurance.

15. What can be the most suitable title for the text?

A．Getting Close to Nature Keeps Us Happy

B．It’s Unnecessary to Invest Much in Health

C．It’s Not Hard to Keep Fit for City Residents

D．Being in Nature Reduces Health Care Cost
