【解析】

试题分析：本文主要介绍了一些年轻的孩子们在为保护地球做贡献。

【1】考查文章主旨的理解。文章的主旨要么在第一段要么在最后一段。本文第一段已将主旨抛出，即讲述几个保卫地球的小英雄。故从第一段的最后一句话These are just a few kid heroes for the planet这些是保护地球的几个孩子英雄。可回答该题，且要注意字数控制。

【2】考查上下文语境的理解。在文中第三段she invented an eco-friendly lunch bag. It is partly made from recycled plastic bottles. 她发明了生态友好型午餐袋。它部分地是由回收的塑料瓶制成。此句的it便是an eco-friendly lunch bag，故Kids like it中的it也是指代的an eco-friendly lunch bag，故该题答案就是an eco-friendly lunch bag。

【3】考查主旨分析。根据第五段Every year, Max Kesselman, from Pennsylvania, USA, celebrates his birthday December 3 by cleaning up the Earth. 每年，Max Kesselman，来自美国的宾夕法尼亚州，通过清理地球来庆祝自己12 月 3 日的生日。所以可知，该段的标题应是他清理地球。书写时注意时态为现在时，用一般现在时或者现在进行时皆可，故填cleans up /is cleaning up。

【4】考查细节理解。该题题目的意思是为什么帕克没有全程滑完北极？根据第四段Although the cruel conditions forced Parker and his guide to finish the last 15 miles of the journey by helicopter, 尽管残酷的条件迫使帕克和他的向导由直升机来完成最后的 15 英里的旅程，故可知他没有完成全程的原因是北极残酷的条件，故该题的回答是because of the cruel conditions。

【5】自由发挥题。该题题目意思是写出至少一种你可以参加的其他绿色活动。注意字数限制，以及短语语法形式，由于是要写活动，故将动词要转变成动名词。
