题目列表(包括答案和解析)
Did you ever look up at the moon and think you saw a man’s face there? When the moon is round and full, the shadows(影子) of the moon mountains and the lines of the moon valleys sometimes seem to show a giant nose and mouth and eyes. At least, some people think so.
If there were a man on the moon—instead of mountains and valleys that just look like the face of a man—what would he be like?
He would not be like anyone you know. He would not be like anyone anybody knows.
If the man on the moon were bothered by too much heat or cold the way Earth people are, he could not stay on the moon.
The moon becomes very, very hot. It becomes as hot as boiling water. And the moon becomes very, very cold. It becomes colder than ice.
Whatever part of the moon the sun shines on is hot and bright. The rest of the moon is cold and dark.
If the man on the moon had to breathe to stay alive, he couldn’t live on the moon because there’s no air there. He’d have to carry an oxygen tank, as astronauts do. There’s no food on the moon, either. Nothing grows—not even weeds（grass）.
If the man on the moon liked to climb mountains, he would be very happy. There are many high places there, such as the raised land around the holes, or craters(火山口), of the moon. Some of these rims are as tall as Earth’s highest mountains.
But if the man on the moon liked to swim, he would be unhappy. There is no water on the moon—just dust and rock.
When you think of what it’s like on the moon, you may wonder why it interests our scientists. One reason is that the moon is Earth’s nearest neighbor—it is the easiest place in space to get to.
Going back and forth between the moon and Earth, astronauts will get a lot of practice in space travel. Things learned on moon trips will be of great help to astronauts who later take long, long trips to some of the planets.
Scientists are also interested in the moon because it has no air. The air that surrounds Earth cuts down the view of the scientists who look at the stars through telescopes. A telescope on the moon would give them a clearer, closer view of the stars.（words: 411）

The amount of household waste being recycled in England has increased more than three times in the past decade, official figures show.
But householders (住户) are still throwing away more than 60% of their rubbish, the statistics from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Rural Affairs (Defra) found.
The proportion of household waste being recycled, composted (堆肥) or reused rose slightly last year from 37.6% in 2008 – 2009 to 39.7% in 2009 – 2010.
According to the figures, 9.4 million tonnes of waste was recycled last year, up from 9.1 million the year before and more than three times the 2.8 million tonnes recycled in 2000 – 2001.
The overall amount of waste being sent to landfill by local councils fell by 2.7% on the previous year and now stands at 23.7 million tonnes.
Each English household threw away on average just over a tonne of rubbish in the past, of which 411 kilograms was recycled, composted or reused and 625kg ended up in landfill or burned.
The amount of waste being sent to landfill by local councils fell by 9.4% to 12.5 million tonnes last year.
The Government recently launched a review into England’s waste strategy in a bid to encourage people to reduce levels of rubbish being thrown into landfills and make it easier for them to increase the amount of waste being recycled.
Ministers have been eager to cut the number of wheelie bins and containers people have to deal with to sort their waste.
And in a move which could see a reversal (逆转) in the trend towards fortnightly (两周一次的) bin rounds, brought in as part of efforts to boost recycling, the review is also looking at how the Government can work with councils to increase the frequency and quality of collections.
71. The household waste being recycled in 2009 – 2010 made up _______.

72. The overall amount of waste produced in 2008 – 2009 was about ________.
A、9.4 million tonnes B、9.1 million tonnes
C、23.7 million tonnes D、24.36 million tonnes
73. A review of waste strategy was launched in England in order to ______.
A、make it more convenient to recycle waste
B、call on householders to sort rubbish out
C、make it easier to collect recyclable waste
D、encourage householders to reduce rubbish
74. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A、All the waste will be reused in the future.
B、Fortnightly collection is a waste of resources
C、More waste will be recycled instead of ending up in landfills
D、It will take a shorter time for the waste to be collected
75. What is the text mainly about?
A、Dealing with waste in England
B、The trend to recycle more rubbish
C、How to recycle rubbish in the future
D、A review of England’s waste strategy

A man was pointing a handgun 7 a woman sitting in a chair, and the woman was saying in a terrible voice: "Please don't shoot me!" I turned round, ran down the stairs-I daren't wait for the 8 -and found a waiter in the hall. "Quick," I cried, "someone is being 9 in my room."
