The task of dealing with climate change(气候变化) is important. It needs work from different organizations and counties. It seems impossible that a common person can make a difference. Should you just give up No! Change starts with you. Here are just a few things you can do to save the Earth. Level 1: Things you can do from your sofa ● Save electricity by turning appliances (电器) off completely when they are not in use. ● Stop paper bank bills and pay your bills online. ● Share information with others.

Have you ever been in a conflict (冲突) Do you know how to solve it Conflict resolution is a peaceful way of trying to deal with a conflict. Both sides in the conflict explain what they think happened to cause it. The person who listens to both sides is called the mediator (调解人). After both sides tell what they think happened to cause the conflict, they discuss ways to solve it. They try to come up with a “resolution” that both sides agree to. They cannot be angry during the communication. Everyone should use good listening and attending skills while talking. If voices get too loud or it appears that someone is angry, the mediator will speak up and have them treat each other with respect. After different suggestions are shared in how to mediate the conflict, it is time for discussing the best solution(解决办法). Here is an example of how conflict resolution works step by step in a school playground setting: Someone says a student pushed him on the football field. The person who was accused as the “pusher” says it was actually an accident. The person who was pushed gets the mediator. The mediator takes the two persons to a quieter place, away from others to talk. The mediator calms them down and lets them know he understands their feelings. Each person describes what happened. The mediator repeats what he heard, so it is clear to everyone. The mediator asks for ideas to solve the problem. The two persons offer their own solutions. The two persons have a discussion and come to an agreement. The mediator makes sure the persons follow the solution. The mediator offers praise for solving the problem. Conflict resolution can be used in many environments. It encourages people to tell what really happened, to share their feelings, and to work together peacefully to solve the problem. It offers people workable steps to reach an agreement with the help of a mediator.

Beauty sleep is a real thing. Researches have shown that people who have enough sleep look more attractive to others. A few bad nights is enough to make a person look “especially” more ugly, their sleep experiment shows. The researchers asked 25 university students to join in their sleep experiment. They were asked to sleep well for two nights. A week later, they were asked to sleep for only four hours every night for two nights in a row. The researchers took make－up free(素颜) photos of the volunteers after both the good and the bad sleep. Next, they asked 122 strangers to have a look at the photos and judge (评价) them on attractiveness, health, and sleepiness, as well as asking them “How much would you like to make friends with this person in the picture？” The strangers were good at judging if the person they were looking at was tired, and, if they were sleepy, their attractiveness scores were low. The strangers also said they wouldn't want to make friends with the tired students. The researchers say this is a spontaneous thing for people. An unhealthy－looking face makes people run away. In other words, people don't want to hang around with people who might look like ill. Dr. Brewer, an expert at the University of Liverpool said, “Judgement of attractiveness is often unconscious(无意识的), but we all do it, and we are able to judge on even something small like whether someone looks tired or unhealthy. This study is a good reminder of how important sleep is to us.”

We'll finally grow up someday, leaving our parents and facing the challenges in life. Parents may not be able to solve every problem for us. Instead, we should have enough life skills to cope with the problems that come our way. This is what our country tries to do now: Helping more students respect working spirit. To stress the importance of hardworking spirit education (劳动教育) among students of different ages, the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the State Council carried out a guideline(指导方针) in March. The guideline calls for students to respect work. Students should learn basic life skills and form good working habits through such education. The government has been trying to make the students know the importance of hardworking spirit education. But this has been overlooked(忽视) in recent years. Many teens do not value the importance of working hard and are uninterested in doing so. According to a study of nearly 3,000 students that was done by Ningbo Evening News in March, only 22 percent of primary and middle school students help with everyday chores around the house. Schools and families play an important role in teaching students about the value of working hard, the guideline says. Primary and middle schools should provide students with hardworking spirit classes every week, according to the guideline. Schools can also hold activities to give students real-world work experience. For example, schools can teach children how to plant trees on Tree-Planting Day. As children's first teachers, parents should also encourage children to learn how to do chores at home. Students should master one or two life skills every year. These skills can include cooking, washing their own clothes and tidying their rooms.
( )36. The guideline was carried out in order to _________.
A. teach students how to do chores at home
B. call for students to respect work
C. help students solve life problems
D. ask students to be more independent
( )37. What does the underlined word “stress” in Paragraph 2 mean in Chinese
A. 要求 B. 强调 C. 规定 D. 提高
( )38. What is Paragraph 5 trying to tell us
A. Only 3,000 students help with housework.
B. Students pay no attention to work spirit.
C. About one-fifth of students help with housework.
D. Students are very dependent on their parents.
( )39. According to the guideline, schools should _________.
A. provide both guidance and chances for real work
B. hand out the guideline to every student

Natural way to recycle plastic was found. Everyone knows by now. that plastic pollution is a huge problem for the environment. Beijing, for example, has dealt with this by banning thin plastic bags, plastic tableware and other plastic items in supermarkets, restaurants and hotels since May 1, according to CGTN. But an even better solution might be on the way. Researchers at a French company called Carbios have discovered a enzyme (酶) that can break down plastic. The enzyme, which was first found in compost (堆肥) leaves, turns plastic into chemical “building blocks” that can then be used to create new products, according to the Guardian. The new enzyme was uncovered in research that was published last month in the journal Nature. Researchers studied over 100,000 microorganisms (微生物) to find one that could break down plastic quickly. The leaf compost enzyme was first discovered in 2012. Scientists changed its genes (基因), allowing it to break down 90 percent of one ton of plastic in less than 10 hours. “It had been completely forgotten, but it turned out to be the best,” said Professor Alain Marty, chief science officer at Carbios. The enzyme especially breaks down PET, a type of plastic that is most commonly used to produce plastic bottles and food packaging. It is the fifth most common type of plastic that we use. Carbios said it is working together with companies like Pepsi and Nestle—major consumers of plastic themselves—to develop their research and start using the enzyme in industry, according to Forbes.
( )41.What do we know about the enzyme
A. It is a new type of plastic.
B. It can break down plastic quickly.
C. It was first found in the earth.
D. It can make the plastic stronger.
( )42.What does the underlined word “banning” means in Chinese

( )43.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. Where the scientists found the new enzyme.
B. How the scientists changed the enzyme's genes.
C. How the scientists found the new enzyme.
D. When the scientists found the new enzyme.
( )44.Why did the scientists change the genes of the leaf compost enzyme
A. To break down the leaves quickly.
B. To do researches checking the effect of microorganisms.
C. To break down plastic quickly.
D. To help people accept the enzyme more easily.
