第二部分 阅读理解(共两节)
第一节(满分 30 分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C 和 D)中,选出最佳选项,
并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑.
A
For some in China, the aim of travel is to create 15-second videos on a social-media
app, dou yin. As a matter of fact, tourism is for recreation and leisure. The world
Tourism Organization defines tourists as people who travel to and stay in places
outside their usual environment for more than twenty-four hours.Nowadays, apart from
the traditional forms , a variety of new types of traveling are emerging.
Experiential travel
Last year's travel trend was "experiential travel". This is where tourists look
for ways to get to know local culture and interact with local people so they feel
less like an outsider but more like a resident.
Transformative travel
It usually goes through three stages – you go to a place that has a very different
background than where you come from, you learn wisdom from the new culture and the
people you meet, and finally you return home and apply the knowledge to your own life
and the lives of those around you.
This last stage is how the “transformation” is completed and what separates
transformative travel from experiential travel.
Eco-friendly travel
One way to plan a low-impact trip is to travel a shorter distance, which can reduce
your carbon footprint. "One trans-Atlantic flight equals a year's worth of driving, so consider planning an adventure closer to home," according to US News.
Dark travel
Chernobyl is one of the most popular examples of the phenomenon known as dark
tourism — a term for visiting sites associated with death and suffering, such as
Nazi concentration camps in Europe or the 9/11 Memorial and Museum in New York.
21. In which column can we read this passage in the newspaper?
A. Advertising B. News C. Sports. D.
Entertainment
22. Choosing the Transformative travel, you can__________
A. feel less like a local resident B. reduce carbon emission
C. put what you have learned into practice D. pay a visit to the sites related
to sufferings .
23. Which of the following is suitable for the environmentalists?
A. Experiential travel B. Transformative travel
C. Eco-friendly travel D. Dark travel
【答案】21. D 22. C 23. C
【解析】

B
Feel tired and want to have a break? People have many different ways to relax
during break time at work or school. Smartphones are probably the number one choice
for a quick mental vacation.
Although it might seem like a good time, looking at your cellphone may damage
your mental power, according to a recent psychological study from Rutgers University
in the United States.
For the study, more than 400 students were asked to finish a set of 20 word puzzles.
Halfway through the task, the students were divided into three groups. One group was
allowed to take a break and use cellphones to buy things online. The second group
was asked to have a rest and buy things using a computer. The last group didn’t take
any break at all.
Interestingly, the group that used their cellphones during the break went back
to work feeling the most tired and least motivated to continue. They also had the
hardest time solving the remaining word puzzles.
The cellphone group took 19 percent longer to finish the rest of the task, and
solved 22 percent fewer problems than those in the other break conditions combined.Terri Kurtzberg, co-author of the study, explained that they assumed looking at
cellphones during a break would be no different from any other break – but instead,
the phone may cause increasing levels of distraction that make it difficult to return
focused attention to work tasks.
“Cellphones may have this effect because even just seeing your phone activates
thoughts of checking messages, connecting with people, access to ever-refilling
information and more, in ways that are different than how we use other screens like
computers, and laptops,” Kurtzberg told Science Daily.
This is echoed (呼应) by a 2017 study from the US University of Chicago. It found
that even if cellphones are turned off or turned face down, their mere presence reduces
a person’s cognitive capacity (认知能力).
So, during your next break, try putting your smartphone away. Go out for a walk,
get to know your classmates or even take a nap (小憩). You may be surprised by the
result.
24. What did the study find about using cellphones during breaks?
A. It could make people more motivated at work.
B. It could reduce one’s ability to solve problems.
C. It could be beneficial both physically and mentally.
D. It could affect one’s relationships with others.
25. What does the underlined word “activate” probably mean in paragraph 7?
A. motivate B. associate. C. appreciate D. imitate.
26. What can we learn about cellphones from Kurtzberg’s words?
A. They may influence people in the same way as computers do.
B. They may make it hard for people to concentrate on work.
C. Their negative influence is almost impossible to avoid.
D. They have become a necessary part of people’s lives.
27. What does the author suggest people do during break time?
A. Turn off their cellphones. B. Keep their cellphones face down.
C. Replace cellphones with laptops. D. Keep their cellphones out of
sight.【答案】24. B 25. A 26. B 27. D
【解析】

break – but instead, the phone may cause increasing levels of distraction that make
it difficult to return focused attention to work tasks. ( 该 研 究 的 合 著 者 Terri
Kurtzberg 解释说,他们认为在休息时间看手机和其他任何休息时间没有什么不同,但实际上,
手机可能会导致注意力越来越分散,很难将注意力重新集中到工作任务上)可知,研究发现
在休息时间使用手机会降低一个人解决问题的能力。故选 B。
【25 题详解】
词义猜测题。根据下文 thoughts of checking messages, connecting with people, access
to ever-refilling information and more 可知,人们即使只是看到手机,大脑中也会激活查
看信息、与人联系、获取不断更新的信息等想法。由此可知,划线单词意思为“激活”。故选
A。
【26 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段中…the phone may cause increasing levels of distraction that

越分散,很难将注意力重新集中到工作任务上)可知,从 Kurtzberg 的话中,我们可以了解
到手机可能使人们很难集中精力工作。故选 B。

细节理解题。根据最后一段 So, during your next break, try putting your smartphone
away. Go out for a walk, get to know your classmates or even take a nap. You may be

了解你的同学,甚至打个盹。你可能会对结果感到惊讶)可知,作者建议人们在休息时间把手机放在看不见的地方。故选 D。
【点睛】词义猜测题是高考阅读理解中常考题型之一,可以大致分为
① 定义猜词,可以根据定义信息和举例猜测词义。如文中常用 refer to,be called 或
that’s to say,such as 等。
② 逻辑猜词可以根据同义词、反义词、因果关系词等猜测词义,例如,similarly,the same
as,but,however,while,on the other hand,since ,because 等,所猜词与这些提示词前/后面
部分的含义一样、相反或是前因后果。
③ 语法猜词,可以根据构词法,再结合上下文进行猜词。
④ 语境猜词,猜测词义离不开上下文的语境,通过上下文提供的情景和线索进行合理的分析,
同时还要关注其所在的整段及整篇文章。
⑤ 指代猜词即找出人称代词、指示代词、关系代词或关系副词等所指代的内容,做题时要注
意指代词的位置,以便于判断,然后用所找的指代内容替换划线代词,核实其逻辑、意义、
位置等是否一致,最后比较所找部分与选项,确定意思最接近的选项。
如第 2 小题,根据下文 thoughts of checking messages, connecting with people, access
to ever-refilling information and more 可知人们即使只是看到手机,大脑中也会激活查看
信息、与人联系、获取不断更新的信息等想法。由此可知,划线单词意思为“激活”。故选 A。
C
Nature is like a great magician, performing wonders on Earth. One of them is the
Amazon rainforest, the world's largest and home to millions of plants and animals.
Nicknamed "the lungs of our planet", it generates about one-fifth of Earth's oxygen.
However, this wonderful natural wonder is currently in dange.
Thousands of fires have broken out in Brazil, endangering much of the rainforest.
These blazes have lasted several weeks and are believed to be the "most intense" in
almost a decade, according to BBC News.
The Amazon has seen a large number of fires in 2019. Between January and August,
there were over 74,000 fires the highest number since 2013, the BBC reported.
Forest fires are common during the dry season, which runs from July to October.
They are usually caused by natural events, such as lightning strikes. However, most
of the fires this year are believed to be caused by farmers, who use fire as a traditional part of tropical agriculture to clean land, reported CNN.
The disaster has raised concern around the world. The Amazon rainforest is
important for preventing climate change, said the BBC, absorbing millions of tons
of carbon annually. When trees are cut down or burned, the rainforest's capacity (能力)
to absorb carbon is reduced.
Brazilian climate expert Carlos Nobre told Reuters he's worried. If more than
20 percent of the ecosystem is destroyed, the Amazon rainforest could reach a "tipping
point (临界点)where the thick jungle will turn into a tropical savannah (大草原).
Nobre warned that it is not far off, with between 15 and 17 percent of the
rainforest having already been destroyed.
The Brazilian government has sent soldiers to fight the fires. Many people have
offered their support and called for recovery efforts. For example, Tim Cook, CEO
of Apple, said he wanted to donate money and US Actor Leonardo DiCaprio's environmental
charity, Earth Alliance, created a donation fund to help deal with the crisis.
The public are also encouraged to donate to charities concerned with rainforest
preservation (保护)."Every little bit helps in a tragic situation like this,"
commented Gizmodo.
28. The underlined word "intense" in Para.2 probably means _______.
A. natural B. fierce C. common D.
unexpected
29. What is the main cause of forest fires in the Amazon rainforest this year?
A. Lightning strikes. B. Hot weather.
C. Agricultural activities. D. Garbage left by tourists.
30. What was Nobre worried about in the article?
A. Global temperatures will rise.
B. The Amazon rainforest is close to disappearing.
C. Animals in the Amazon rainforest are under threat.
D. It will take decades for the Amazon rainforest to recover.
31. What are the last two paragraphs mainly about?
A. What the Brazilian government has done to fight fires.B. Celebrities who care about rainforest preservation.
C. The possible future of the Amazon rainforest.
D. Efforts made to save the Amazon rainforest.
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. B 31. D
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。世界上最大的雨林——亚马逊雨林,也是数百万动植物的家园,它被称为“地
球的肺”,然而,这个奇妙的自然奇观目前正处于危险之中。火灾,危及大片雨林。
【28 题详解】
词义猜测题。根据上文 These blazes have lasted several weeks 可知,这些大火持续了几
周,时间过长,在这十年内,应该是 “最凶猛的”。故选 B。
【29 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段 However, most of the fires this year are believed to be caused
by farmers, who use fire as a traditional part of tropical agriculture to clean land 可知,
今年大部分火灾被认为是由农民引起的,他们把火作为热带农业的传统来清洁土地。故选 C。
【30 题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六、七段 Brazilian climate expert Carlos Nobre told Reuters he's
worried. If more than 20 percent of the ecosystem is destroyed, the Amazon rainforest
could reach a “tipping point (临界点)” where the thick jungle will turn into a
tropicalsavannah(大草原).”可知,卡洛斯·诺布雷担心如果超过 20%的生态系统被破坏,
亚马逊雨林可能会达到一个“临界点”,茂密的丛林将变成热带大草原。所以他是担心雨林会
灭绝,故选 B。
【31 题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后两段中描述 government,manypeople,thepublic 所做的贡献,可知,
这都是为了保护雨林做的努力。故选 D。
D
Living gratefully has a huge transforming power, not just when something wonderful
or special happens, but every day no matter what is happening.
I’ve recently been involved with two people whose lives were challenged by bad
luck. I have seen how grateful living had the power to keep one of them going and
how it’s beginning to lift the other. One was a friend and the other is my sister.My friend seemed to be in good health when she received a deadly diagnosis: a
disease with no effective treatment. She had all the emotions that a tragedy brings
but she also had a powerful response to despair (绝望) that gave her “the happiness
that doesn’t depend on what happens.” She wrote online daily, honestly sharing the
details of her situation.
She wrote that even though it was difficult to move, this gave her more time to
notice small things. She was grateful not only for the love and help of family and
friends, but also for time to see the sun rise and watch the birds in her yard. No
opportunity for gratefulness was wasted.
She taught that gratefulness is not a false cheerfulness. It’s taking every
opportunity to celebrate the blessings of small things. We can be grateful for the
challenges that help us develop sympathy for each other. Life is a precious gift.
She repeatedly blogged that she was happier than she had ever been.
When she wrote about “the worst day”, she ended with “life is still a lovely
gift.” She died later that day.
Her message, however, changed my sister’s life. My sister’s health was getting
worse and worse, though nothing life-threatening. She did have a very painful knee.
Her life was in danger from her defeated spirit. She was bed-bound (卧床不起), getting
weaker and weaker. Fearful, angry and depressed, she felt out of options for recovery.
I read my sister a few of my friend’s messages. I was careful not to say, “Why
can’t you be more like her?” Instead, I let the words do their work. I’m grateful
to say that an attitude of gratitude began to replace her anger and fear. I believe
this helped her to heal.
We can’t be grateful for all that happens, but we can practice gratefulness for
life itself, for all we can learn to deal with, for all the ways we can help each
other grow and heal.
32. What happened when the author’s friend found she had an incurable disease?
A. She complained that life was unfair to her.
B. She started to appreciate and enjoy the small things in life.
,C. She tried her best to look for treatment.
D. She repeatedly blogged about how painful it was.
33. How did the author’s sister feel when she was ill?
A. Calm. B. Lonely. C. Sad. D.
Confused.
34. What does the underlined “this” refer to in the article?
A. Writing a blog. B. Eating healthy food.
C. Talking with family. D. Being grateful for life.
35. What message does the article mainly convey?
A. A friend in need is a friend indeed.
B. Gratitude has the power of lifting people’s spirits.
C. Health is the most important thing for people.
D. Families will always be there no matter what happens.
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. D 35. B
【解析】

细节理解题。根据第五段 She taught that gratefulness is not a false cheerfulness.
It’s taking every opportunity to celebrate the blessings of small things. We can

is a precious gift.(她教导我们感恩不是虚假的快乐。它利用每一个机会来庆祝小事情的
祝福。我们可以感激那些帮助我们彼此同情的挑战。生命是一份珍贵的礼物)可知,当作者
的朋友发现她得了不治之症时,她开始欣赏和享受生活中的小事。故选 B。
【33 题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中 Her life was in danger from her defeated spirit. She was
bed-bound, getting weaker and weaker. Fearful, angry and depressed, she felt out of
options for recovery.(她被击败的精神使她的生命处于危险之中。她困在床上,越来越虚弱。恐惧、愤怒和沮丧使她感到没有恢复的余地)可知,作者的姐姐生病时感觉很难过。故
选 C。
【34 题详解】
词义猜测题。结合上文 I’m grateful to say that an attitude of gratitude began to replace
her anger and fear. (我很高兴地说,一种感恩的态度开始取代她的愤怒和恐惧)可知,作
者相信对生活的感恩帮助她痊愈。由此可知,划线单词此处指代“对生活的感恩”,故选 D。
【35 题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的 Living gratefully has a huge transforming power, not just
when something wonderful or special happens, but every day no matter what is happening.
(心怀感恩的生活有着巨大的转变力量,不仅是在美好或特别的事情发生的时候,而是在每
一天,不管发生了什么)可知,文章主要想告诉读者感恩有振奋人心的力量。故选 B。

in a subject of your choosing such as Chemistry, Literature, or Political
Science.
How important is my major?
The major you choose will neither predict nor guarantee your future. Many
graduates find jobs that have nothing to do with what they studied in college. If
you intend to earn a professional degree after college, you will probably need certain
courses. ___37___
When do I declare a major?
This varies widely across schools and programs._____38_____Others require that
you declare upon a major by the time that you set foot inside your first class.
___39___Definitely. One of the most exciting aspects of college life is that it introduces
you to new subjects and arouses new passions. However, keep this in mind. Every major
has necessary coursework. If you change your major late in the game, it may take
more than the traditional four years to earn a degree.
What are minors and double majors?
If one field of study doesn’t satisfy your intellectual appetite, consider a
minor. A minor is similar to a major in that it’s an area of academic
concentration.___40___A double major provides you with an understanding of two
academic fields. It allows you to become familiar with two sets of values and views
while it also requires you to fulfill two sets of requirements.
A. Can I change my mind?
B. Is my major time-consuming?
C. It's your specialized area of study in college.
D. Most students find one major is more than enough.
E. Some schools may give you one year or more to decide.
F. But many future doctors major in non-science related fields.
G. The only difference is that it doesn’t require as many classes.
【答案】36. C 37. F
38. E 39. A
40. G
【解析】
这是一篇说明文,介绍了关于大学所选专业的一些信息。
【36 题详解】
本段小标题为“什么是专业?”,根据下文 Beyond general college requirements, you'll
also take a group of courses in a subject of your choosing such as Chemistry,
Literature, or Political Science.可知,除了通用的大学要求,你还将学习一门你选择的
课程,如化学,文学或政治科学。符合本段主题,承接下文,C 项(这是你在大学学习的专业
领域。)切题。故选 C 项。
【37 题详解】
根据上文 If you intend to earn a professional degree after college, you will probably need certain courses.可知,如果你打算在大学毕业后获得专业学位,您可能需要某些特定
的课程。F 项(但许多未来的医生主修非科学相关领域。)与之形成对比,阐释了“The major
you choose will neither predict nor guarantee your future.(你的专业选择既不会预测
也不会保证你的未来)”这一句话,故选 F 项。
【38 题详解】
根据上文 This varies widely across schools and programs 可知,关于什么时候选专业,
不同学校和项目的差异很大。根据下文 Others require that you declare upon a major by
the time that you set foot inside your first class.可知,其他学校则要求你在上第一
节课时就申请专业。承上启下,E 项(有些学校可能会给你一天或以上的时间去决定)切题,
故选 E 项。
【39 题详解】
根据这一段中 If you change your major late in the game 可知,这一段与换专业有关,故选 A
项(我可以改变主意吗?)
【40 题详解】
根据上文 If one field of study doesn' t satisfy your intellectual appetite, consider
a minor. A minor is similar to a major in that it’s an area of academic concentration.可
知,如果一个研究领域不能满足您的智力需求,考虑辅修。辅修专业与主专业相似的地方是
它们都是学术集中的领域。承接上文,G 项(唯一的区别是它不需要上那么多课。)切题,故
选 G 项。

第二节 (共 10 小题;每小题 1.5 分,满分 15 分)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Students at a primary school in Hangzhou had their first class____61____March
1st on movable type. This is____62____ancient Chinese printing system.
The West Lake Primary School in Zhejiang Province has introduced the course in
the new term. An expert in Chinese characters culture has been invited to the
campus,____63____major responsibility is to teach students how___64___(use) the
ancient printing technology. Students attend lectures on the history of mova type
along with___65___(interest) classes on typesetting and printing. They then print
their own document, ____66____(apply) the knowledge they’ve learned. One student

and it is the world’s first system of movable type printing.
The school said the course is aimed at improving the students’ awareness of
Chinese characters and their_____70_____(appreciate) of Chinese culture.
【答案】61. on 62. an 63. whose 64. to use
65. interesting
66. applying
67. newly 68. Known
69. was invented
70. appreciation
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇记叙文。为了提高学生对汉字的认识和对中国文化的欣赏,浙江省的一所小学开
设了一门有关中国印刷文化的课程,并邀请了一位专家来教学生如何使用古老的印刷技术。
学生在课上也印刷了属于自己的文件,将所学用于实践。
【61 题详解】
考查介词。表示具体某一天要用介词 on,故填 on。
【62 题详解】
考查冠词。句意:这是一个古老的中国印刷系统。system 为可数名词,在文中为单数形式,
所以要填一个冠词修饰 system。根据句意这里是泛指“一个系统”,所以用不定冠词修饰。
ancient 为元音开头,故填 an。
【63 题详解】
考查定语从句。分析可知,空格处引导定语从句,先行词 An expert in Chinese characters
culture 指人,空格处在从句中作定语,故用 whose 引导这个定语从句,故填 whose。
【64 题详解】
考查不定式。句意:一位中国汉字文化专家被邀请到校园,其主要职责是教学生如何使用古
老的印刷技术。分析可知,how 加空格处作 teach 的宾语,所以用“特殊疑问词+不定式”结
构作宾语,故填 to use。
【65 题详解】
考查形容词。空格处修饰名词 classes 要用形容词,表示“有趣的”,故填 interesting。
【66 题详解】
考查现在分词。print 为句子的谓语动词,所以 apply 用非谓语形式,apply 与其逻辑主语 they
之间是逻辑上的主动关系,要用其现在分词形式,故填 applying。
【67 题详解】考查副词。空格处修饰形容词 written,应该用所给词的副词形式,故填 newly。
【68 题详解】
考查过去分词。invent 为谓语动词,所以 know 用非谓语形式,know 与其逻辑主语 movable
type printing 之间是逻辑上的被动关系,所以用其过去分词作伴随状语,故填 Known。
【69 题详解】
考查语态和时态。invent 是句子的谓语,和主语 movable type printing 是被动关系,根据时
间状语 in the 1040s during the Song Dynasty 可知,动作发生在过去,所以要用一般过去
时。movable type printing 为单数,谓语动词也要用单数。故填 was invented。
【70 题详解】
考查名词。their 后要接名词,故填 appreciation。
【点睛】疑问词 what, which, who, when, where, how 及连接副词 whether 与不定式连用而
形成一个短语,这个短语相当于一个名词,可在句中作句子的主语、宾语或表语等。比如第 4
小题 to use 就在句中作 teach 的宾语。但是要注意按英语习惯,why 不能用于“疑问词+不定
式”结构。
第四部分 写作(共二节,满分 35 分)
第一节 短文改错(共 10 小题;每小题 1 分,满分 10 分)
71.假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有
10 处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在其下面写出该加的词。
删除:把多余 词用斜线(\)划掉。
修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词。
注意:1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;
2. 只允许修改 10 处,多者(从第 11 处起)不计分。
I'm worried that you've been addicted to share pictures in WeChat circle recently.
You even share all sorts of photo in your daily life. Of course, WeChat makes better
to understand each other and makes our life more colorful, which is very convenient
for us to communicate with. However, there exist some potential trouble if we overshare.
One severe problem is leaking privacy, that may cause economic losses. Besides,
oversharing can make others uncomfortably, for they think you are showing off.
Thus, neither should we post our personal information, or should we blindly add
的strangers to a list of friends. It's much wise to set aside some time to accompany
parents or do something more meaningful, such as reading books or taking exercise.
【答案】1.share→sharing
2.photo→photos
3.在 makes 和 better 之间加上 it
4.去掉 communicate 后面的 with
5.exist→exists
6.that→which
7.uncomfortably→uncomfortable
8.or →nor
9.a→the
10.wise→wiser
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。文章说明了微信朋友圈过度分享可能存在的问题,以及对此提出的建议。
【详解】1.考查固定短语。句意:我担心你最近沉迷于微信圈子里的分享图片。固定短语 be
addicted to doing sth.“沉迷于做某事”,故 share 改为 sharing。
2.考查名词的数。句意:你甚至在日常生活中分享各种照片。photo 为可数名词,由 all sorts
of 修饰故用复数形式。故 photo 改为 photos。
3.考查 it 作形式宾语。句意:当然,微信让我们更好的互相理解,让我们的生活更加丰富多
彩,这对于我们交流是非常方便的。make 后跟 it 作形式宾语指代后文不定式真正宾语,故在
makes 和 better 之间加上 it。
4.考查动词。句意:当然,微信让我们更好的互相理解,让我们的生活更加丰富多彩,这对
于我们交流是非常方便的。此处 communicate 后没有宾语,故不需要介词。故去掉 communicate
后面的 with。
5.考查主谓一致。句意: 然而,如果我们过度分享,就会出现一些潜在的问题。本句主语为
trouble 单数名词,故谓语动词需要用单数形式,且为一般现在时,故 exist 改为 exists。
6.考查定语从句关系词。句意:一个严重的问题是泄露隐私,这可能会造成经济损失。本句
为非限定性定语从句修饰上文整个句子,且从句中缺少主语,故用 which。故 that 改为
which。7.考查形容词。句意:此外,过度分享会让别人不舒服,因为他们认为你在炫耀。短语 make
sb.+形容词表示“使某人怎么样”,应用形容词作宾语补足语。故 uncomfortably 改为
uncomfortable。
8.考查固定短语。句意:因此,我们既不应该发布我们的个人信息,也不应该盲目地将陌生
人添加到朋友列表中。固定短语 neither…nor…“既不……也不……”,故 or 改为 nor。
9.考查冠词。句意:因此,我们既不应该发布我们的个人信息,也不应该盲目地将陌生人添
加到朋友列表中。此处特指自己的“朋友列表”故应用定冠词,故 a 改为 the。
10.考查比较级。句意:留出一些时间陪伴父母或做一些更有意义的事情是更明智的,比如读
书或锻炼。根据句意以及上文 much 修饰形容词比较级 wiser,表示“更明智”,故 wise 改为
wiser。

________________________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________
【答案】Our school has started a programme of garbage sorting .It is my great honor
to represent the Students’ Union to make our voice heard on it.
As we all know, we produce lots of garbage, such as leftover food, waste paper
and plastic bottles every day, which becomes a big headache in our life.
Therefore,garbage sorting is a good way of dealing with it. It is beneficial to us
in the following ways. To begin with, we can recycle what can be reused to save more
natural resources. Besides, harmful materials in the sorted garbage can be properly treated to avoid environment pollution. As students, we are supposed to tell different
types of garbage and put them in different dustbins to make recycling easier.
Now I am here to call on everyone to take action together to make the environment
clean and beautiful.
