   Caroline Solomon was on her high school's swim team. But at times she could not go into the creek(小溪)near her home. It was simply too polluted. "I decided I wanted to do something about it,"she recalls. So she studied environmental science and public policy at Harvard University in Cambridge. Later,she went to graduate school. Some of her classes could be challenging,though,since she couldn't hear her teachers. "I've been deaf since I was 15 months old,"Solomon notes.

Today she teaches biology at Gallaudet University in Washington,DC. She has no trouble communicating with her students. They,too,are primarily deaf or hard of hearing. That's why all classes at Gallaudet are taught in American Sign Language. Solomon also has an active life outside the classroom. She especially enjoys hiking,biking and other activities with her family.

Her research takes her to the Anacostia River. "It is very close to Gallaudet,and I easily bring my students there,"she says. Water running through local forests and marshes drains into this river,so does water running off urban streets,golf courses and industrial sites." The river's watershed(流域)kind of concentrates all the things that happen when humans mess with the natural landscape,"she explains. Not surprisingly,this river has developed a reputation for being quite polluted.

Solomon has been focusing on how pollutants affect tiny organisms that form the base of the river's food web. "I am now looking at the bacteria population," she says,"to see what types there are."

Solomon wants to see more students who are deaf or have other disabilities make a difference in environmental science and other fields. As she often says, "If I can do it, you can do it."

【小题1】What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph1 refer to?
A.Solomon's home.
B.Solomon's school.
C.The polluted creek.
D.The local environment.
【小题2】What made Solomon study environmental science?
A.Her teacher's influence.
B.Her physical conditions.
C.Her teenage experience.
D.Her love for swimming.
【小题3】What does Solomon think of disabled students?
A.They should be encouraged to live actively.
B.They can make contributions if they want to.
C.They should be treated differently by others.
D.They can be a burden if they are dependent.
【小题4】In which column can you find this passage?
A.Environment.B.Education.
C.Entertainment.D.Culture.

   How To Be Green?

What does “green” mean? “Green” is more than just a color. 【小题1】    Why green? Plants are green, and without them the Earth wouldn't be such a lovely home for us human beings. What can we do? Here's a four-step guide to being green.

Reduce It!

【小题2】 For instance, a shorter shower means you use less water and less fuel since your house uses fuel to run the water heater that warms up the water.

Reuse It!

Sometimes people call our society a “throwaway society”. It means that we're a little too willing to throw away old stuff(东西) and buy new stuff. 【小题3】 . For instance, if your baby brother becomes older and loses interest in his plastic basketball hoop(篮圈), why not give it to another family who has a little kid?

Recycle It!

Recycling has never been easier. Many communities(社区) will pick it up right in front of your house and some towns even require it. Recycled goods go to a recycling center, where they can be turned into new cans, bottles, and paper.

Enjoy It!

It's true that rubbish and pollution are problems, but the Earth remains a huge and beautiful place that's ready for you to explore. 【小题4】  Go for a hike, visit local nature centers and gardens, and climb up mountains.

But before you travel around the world, take a look at your own backyard. Find a place where you could plant a tree or put in a little fruit or vegetable garden. 【小题5】

 
A.Get out there and get your hands dirty.
B.Turn off the water when you're brushing your teeth.
C.It also means taking special steps to protect the environment.
D.When you use less of something, you do a good thing for the Earth.
E.You can start locally by visiting the naturally beautiful spots in your city.
F.Many times, even if you no longer need something, someone else just might.
G.Then you can watch with pride as your tree takes root and your garden plants grow.

   Ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling in the home is very important of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not bring so much material home in the first place.

The total amount of packaging increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the UK. In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.

Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of it for carrying this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, a few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.

But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But it also applies to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary.

There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realize just how much unnecessary material we are collecting. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb.

【小题1】What does the underlined word “over-consumption” refer to?
A.Using too much packaging.
B.Recycling too much waste.
C.Making more products than necessary.
D.Having more material than is needed.
【小题2】The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show ________.
A.the tendency of cutting household waste
B.the increase of packaging recycling
C.the rapid growth of supermarkets
D.the fact of packaging overuse
【小题3】What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A.Unpackaged products are of bad quality.
B.Supermarkets care more about packaging.
C.It is improper to judge quality by packaging.
D.Other products are better packaged than food.
【小题4】What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.Fighting wastefulness is difficult.
B.Needless material is mostly recycled.
C.People like collecting recyclable waste.
D.The author is proud of his consumer culture.
