Since the 1990s，China has cooperated on giant panda conservation with 20 countries.“International cooperation in fields such as disease prevention and control，treatment，and wild training and reintroduction to the wild，has achieved good results.Giant pandas will facilitate communication between people and let people around the world know China better，” said Li，the leader of the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda.

Ⅱ.阅读表达【主题：人与自然 塑料垃圾】
We only have one planet so we need to take responsibility for it.This means not breaking the earth in any way but looking after everything on it.But people have been caring less about the earth and now plastic pollution is serious which has been caused by careless humans.
The biggest problem is that plastic is harmful to environment.Plastic is cheap and easy to make，so humans buy and use things that are made of it a lot.They then throw them away but plastic is so strong that it needs hundreds of years to be decomposed(分解) when it is thrown away.It was broken into small pieces，and then they were taken away by the wind and rain.Lots of plastic products end up in rivers and oceans.
Luckily，there are things we can do to help reduce this harm.We can do something to help end plastic pollution.We need to remember the three Rs.It's important to first try to “reduce” our use of plastics.Then “reuse” the plastic products as possible as we can.The last is to “recycle”，as plastic still has a bad influence on the environment.By working together，we can make a good influence on the earth.So we can reduce the harm that plastic waste causes.
1.What does taking responsibility for the earth mean
__________________________________________________________________________________
2.Why do people often buy plastic things
__________________________________________________________________________________
3.How long does it take for the plastic to be decomposed

Ⅱ.阅读理解【主题：人与自然 环保产品】
Around the world，people are more and more worried about the environment.Many people now prefer products and companies that care about the earth and cause less pollution.This need for green products has led large companies to change their business.
Before，customers used cheap plastic bags，and then threw them away.But now most supermarkets and stores usually provide reusable shopping bags for them.This causes less waste.They also offer more local products，because less energy is needed for carrying them from one place to another.
To help lower air pollution，big car factories are looking for other ways to control the amount of oil.Cars that use much less oil are very popular.Many companies are also developing fully electric cars.They produce no air pollution.Both kinds of cars have another advantage：They are cheaper to run and people don't need to worry about oil prices.
The airline companies face an even greater green challenge.Airplanes use much more oil than cars.So many airlines are now developing planes that can run on some other kinds of oil.They create less pollution and cost less.The companies are also developing a new kind of planes，and some of them use only solar panels(太阳能板) to fly!
Green business used to be popular with only a small group of people.But now，more and more companies have to show they care about the environment.Many products are marked “green” in order to look nice.However，people still have to be careful when choosing green products.It's important to make sure the products are as environmentally friendly as the businessmen say.

How green are you？Do you know how to be green
We all need a healthy environment，but we produce waste every day and it often results in lots of pollution.In fact，even the simplest everyday activities can make a difference to the environment.Here are some ideas for you.
Reduce.It means “use less”.It suggests people should produce less pollution and throw less rubbish.People should reduce waste by buying fewer things.So before we are going to buy a new thing，try to think whether it is really necessary for us.
Reuse.Reuse means “use again”.It asks people to use things as long time as possible.When we buy things，guarantee that we really need them and we can use them for a long time.We should value them so that we can use them for a longer time.And if we can，we should repair(修理) them instead of throwing them away and buying new ones.Don't use a paper cup or a paper bag.If we can use a china(陶瓷的) cup or a lunch box，we are doing something green and helpful.
Recycle.Recycle means “use in a new way”.Many people recycle things.Look at these examples.People often recycle old or waste electrical things and try to create some new things with some parts from the old ones.Second，some people try to make some bags with old clothes.At last，people often clean the house or water plants with used water.
1.The writer talks about ________ ways to protect the environment in the passage.
A.five B.four C.three D.two
2.What does the underlined word “guarantee” mean in the passage
A.Keep quiet. B.Make sure. C.Take action. D.Take place.
3.The writer introduces how to recycle things by ________ in the fifth paragraph.
A.telling a story
B.giving some idioms
C.drawing a picture
D.giving three examples
4.What is the writer's purpose of creating this passage

B.To help protect animals.
C.To encourage people to produce more pollution.
D.To help create inventions.

Ⅱ.(2024武汉中考)阅读理解【主题：人与自然 环保组织】
The silence of the pond(池塘) was broken by the first cry，“Found something！” A swimmer ducked(扎入) into the water with a lifeline connected to a boat.Soon，she appeared，holding a bright blue glass bottle.It was passed to another，then into the boat.
On a fine Sunday morning in May，a team of 10 women over 65 years old，known as the Old Women Against Underwater Rubbish(OWAUR)，looked for rubbish across Nova Pond in Scotia.
When the team returned，they joked about the trip.“We didn't even know what it was，” one swimmer said with a laugh，showing an electronic lighter they had found.“We had to ask a young person.”
Part protection organization，part social club，OWAUR only accepted old women as its members.To improve the conditions of the ponds，the group made it its mission to take rubbish away from them.The idea of this group was from a moment of Sandy，a retired(退休的) reporter.As a lifelong nature lover，she liked swimming in ponds.However，the world of the pond，which was a little polluted，made her anxious.Then she came up with a slogan(标语)：
“OVER 65，IF YOU'RE HEALTHY ENOUGH，IS THE AGE OF ACTION.”
Soon many people joined her.They found a sense of wonder at the pond cleanup moments.And their team could do a lot more than people might think.
When many people thanked OWAUR for what they had done，some questioned why they called themselves “old women”.“You should call yourselves the Mermaids(美人鱼) Against Underwater Rubbish，” they said.
1.What does “another” in Paragraph 1 refer to
A.A pond. B.A swimmer.
C.A glass bottle. D.A boat.
2.The underlined word “mission” means “________”.
A.an important task B.a fair game

D.won fame and got prizes
4.Why were the old women regarded as Mermaids
A.They must be good at swimming.
B.They could be trusted by some people.
C.They should be responsible for their group.
D.They might be thought young and beautiful.
5.What would be the best title for the passage
