The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and modern communication means. Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.
Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, man moved to another place. But this is no longer true.
Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.
Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.
Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air. Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. We are sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.
The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must take care of the rise in pollution at the same time.
( )39. _______, our world is becoming much smaller.
Because of the rise in pollution
B. Thanks to science development
C. Because the earth is being polluted day and night
D. Because the earth is blown away by the wind every year
( )40. Hundreds of years ago, life was __________ it is today.
A. much easier than B. as easy as C. much harder than D. as hard as
( )41. Pollution comes in many ways. We can even hear it. Here “it” means _______.
A. soil pollution B. noise pollution C. air pollution D. water pollution
( )42. Which of the following is NOT true
A. Many countries are making rules to fight pollution.
B. The pollution of the earth grows as fast as the world population does.
C. The problem of pollution is not so serious because there are not so many people living on the earth.
D. If people could go to work by bus or bike instead of car or motorbike, it would be helpful in fighting against the problem of SO2.

In the middle of a city, there was a museum that was decorated with beautiful marble tiles (大理石砖) and a huge marble statue (大理石像). Many people from all over the world visited the museum every day and admired the statue. One night, the marble tiles started talking to the marble statue.
Tiles: Hey statue. Don’t you think it’s unfair that everybody comes here to admire you while stepping on us
Statue: My brothers. Don’t you remember that we are actually from the same place
Tiles: Yes, we do. That is why we feel it is even more unfair. All of us were born from the same place, and yet the world treats us so differently now. This is so unfair!
Statue: Yes, you are right, my brothers. But do you still remember the day when the artist tried to work on you, but you refused him
Tiles: Yes, we didn’t like him. We turned him away because we didn’t want to get hurt.
Statue: Well, since you refused his tools, he couldn’t work on you. When he decided to give up on you, he started working on me instead. I knew at once that I would be something different and special after his hard work. I bore (忍受) all the pain and allowed him to fashion (雕琢) me as he wanted!
Tiles: But it hurt quite a lot.
Statue: My brothers, there is a price for everything in life. Since you decided to give up halfway, you can’t complain about the world’s unfairness to you.
The marble tiles became quiet and deep in thought. The harder the knocks you go through in life, the more you learn and can put to use in the future!

C. It couldn’t get along with the artist. D. It couldn’t bear the pain.
( )46. What lesson might the marble tiles learn from this

Everybody should learn to bear unfairness.

Since the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (新冠病毒) began in Wuhan in Dec 2019, China has mobilized (调动) the power of the whole country. Now, epidemic (疫情) control and prevention efforts are starting to take effect.
According to a key meeting held on Feb 21, the spread of the epidemic is being contained. On Feb 24, mainland areas outside of Hubei reported nine new infections (感染), the first single-digit (个位数) increase in weeks, according to the National Health Commission.
Vaccine (疫苗) development is also progressing. Some vaccines have been tested on animals, according to the Ministry of Science and Technology. “If vaccine development is compared to building a house, we have laid the foundation (地基) and the building is starting to emerge (出现) from the ground,” Zeng Yixin, deputy director of the National Health Commission, said to China Daily.
However, the turning point of the epidemic is yet to come. After millions of people return to work in major cities, the number of new infections should be kept low for two weeks. This is expected to be a turning point in China, according to the Shanghai Institutes for International Studies. But the situation in Hubei is still serious.
The situation outside of China is concerning. As of 4 pm on Feb 27, the total number of confirmed(确诊) infections in South Korea had risen to 1,766, Xinhua reported. Italy had reported 470 confirmed cases as of Feb 26, as well as 12 deaths. Singapore, Japan and Iran have also found cases.
“The window of opportunity (the best time to contain the outbreak) may be closing,”said WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. He called on the international community to act quickly to control the epidemic before the window closes completely.
( )47. How many new infections were reported in mainland areas outside of Hubei on Feb 24
A. 470 B. 12 C. 9 D. 0
( )48. What is the latest news about vaccine development

A special hospital is being built to develop vaccines.

C. the virus appears to be more dangerous outside of China
D. immediate action is needed globally to control the epidemic
( )50. What can we infer from the story
A. China is no longer the center of the epidemic.
The turning point in Hubei will come in two weeks.
C. It is still not time for us to lower our guard.
D. New hospitals will be built in other countries.

Dear Tom,
I'm very glad to tell you something about the Spring Festival.
It's a traditional festival in China. It is celebrated in winter, usually in January or February.
I like this festival best because it's time to get everything new. We usually clean and decorate our house carefully before it comes. I always help my mother clean the house. We put on chunlian on the doors and chuanghua on the windows.
It's time to get together. Everyone goes home to be with their families, though someone is far away from home. They have dinner together on that day. Lots of people like eating dumplings. During this festival, people visit their relatives and friends. They say "Happy New Year" to each other. When the kids greet their parents and relatives, they can get lucky money from them.
Yours,
Li Lei
