第一节 (共 15 小题;每小题 2.5 分，满分 37.5 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。
A
Animals were the real pioneers of space flight. Let us learn about some animals that have been to space.
A. Fruit flies
On February 20, 1947, the United States sent some fruit flies into space to study the impact that cosmic radiation (宇宙辐射) might potentially have on astronauts in the future. They chose flies because they are genetically similar to humans.
When they returned to Earth, the scientists found the flies alive, with no evidence of the effects of radiation.
B. Mice
Mice have long been used to find out more about how space travel will affect the human body. In fact, NASA has recently published a study of mice housed at the International Space Station. It shows that mice quickly adapt to microgravity (微重力) conditions.
The very first mouse went into space in 1950, reaching an altitude of 137km. However, unlike the fruit flies, the mouse died when the rocket broke into parts due to a parachute (降落伞) failure.
C. Dogs
Laika, a Russian homeless dog, went to space on November 3, 1957. She was picked up on the streets and was thought suitable because she had a gentle temperament (性情) and behaved well. The scientists also believed a homeless dog would be better at dealing with difficult conditions like microgravity than a pet dog.
Laika is famous for being the first animal to orbit (环绕……运行) the Earth. However, she never returned.
D. Spiders
In 1973, two garden spiders called Anita and Arabella were used in an experiment to see if they could still build webs in space.
Both spiders managed to build webs, even though the webs were slightly finer than on Earth. The study showed a great deal about the effects of microgravity on motor response (运动反应).
1. What can we learn about the mouse astronaut
A. It failed to come back alive.
B. It couldn’t survive in microgravity conditions.
C. Its genes were similar to humans’.
D. It was the first animal to be sent to space.
2. Laika was chosen by the scientists for all the following reasons EXCEPT ________ .
A. her good temperament B. her identity as a pet dog
C. her ability to deal with microgravity D. her good behavior
3. What’s the purpose of sending the two spiders to space
A. To compare the quality of webs they made on Earth and in space.
B. To study the impact of cosmic radiation on their survival.
C. To see how fast they could build webs in space.
D. To see whether they could build webs in space.
【答案】1. A 2. B 3. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了动物在太空探索中的历史和作用。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据B. Mice部分中“However, unlike the fruit flies, the mouse died when the rocket broke into parts due to a parachute (降落伞) failure.(然而，与果蝇不同的是，当火箭因降落伞故障而破裂时，老鼠就死了)”可知，老鼠宇航员没能活着返回。故选A项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据C. Dogs部分中“She was picked up on the streets and was thought suitable because she had a gentle temperament (性情) and behaved well. The scientists also believed a homeless dog would be better at dealing with difficult conditions like microgravity than a pet dog.(她是在街上捡来的，因为她性情温和，表现得很好，所以被认为很合适。科学家们还认为，流浪狗比宠物狗更能适应微重力等恶劣环境)”可知，流浪狗Laika被选中有三个原因：性情温和、表现得很好、更能适应微重力等恶劣环境。B项中的“她的宠物狗身份”这一错误表述。故选B项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据D. Spiders部分中“In 1973, two garden spiders called Anita and Arabella were used in an experiment to see if they could still build webs in space.(1973年，两只名叫安妮塔和阿拉贝拉的花园蜘蛛被用于一项实验，看看它们是否还能在太空中织网。)”可知，把两只蜘蛛送上太空的目的是为了看它们能否能在太空中织网。故选D项。
B
As a child, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday afternoons at my grandfather’s farm in western Pennsylvania. Surrounded by miles of stone walls, the house and field provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me.
Since my first visit to the farm, I had wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stone walls surrounding the houses. My parents would never agree because the walls were so old that some stones were loose and falling. However, my idea to climb across those walls grew so strong that finally I had all my courage to enter the living room, where the adults had gathered after Sunday dinner.
“I want to climb the stone walls.” I said. “Heavens, no! You’ll hurt yourself !” The response was just as I’d expected. But before I left the room, I was stopped by my grandfather’s loud voice. “Now hold on just a minute.” I heard him say. “Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things for himself.”
“Go,” he said to me, “and come and see me when you get back.” For the next two and a half hours I climbed those old walls — and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventures. I’ll never forget what he said. “Fred,” he said, smiling, “you made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, there’s only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are.”
Many years have passed since then, and today I host the television program Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, seen by millions of children throughout America. There have been changes over the years, but one thing remains the same: my message to children at the end of almost every visit. “There’s only one person in this whole world like you,” the kids will hear me say, “ and people can like you exactly as you are.”
4. Why did the writer enjoy his visits to the farm
A. There were old stone houses. B. He could experience new fun there.
C. He missed his grandfather a lot. D. He was allowed to climb the walls.
5. What can be inferred about the writer from the passage
A. He didn’t know the possible danger of the stone walls.
B. He didn’t expect his parents’ disagreement on wall climbing.
C. He became a TV program host with his grandfather’s help.
D. He was backed up by his grandfather to follow his heart.
6. Which of the following can best describe the author’s grandfather
A. Adventurous. B. Open-minded.
C. Kind-hearted. D. Dependable.
7. Which is probably the best title for the text
A. Unforgettable Childhood B. Do Whatever You Like
C. Just Be Yourself D. Like grandfather, like grandson
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要通过作者幼年的一件趣事，感悟到每个人都是独一无二的，要敢于做自己
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“As a child, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday afternoons at my grandfather’s farm in western Pennsylvania. Surrounded by miles of stone walls, the house and field provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me. (当我还是个孩子的时候，没有什么比在宾夕法尼亚州西部祖父的农场里度过周日下午更让我喜欢的了。房子和田地被绵延数英里的蜿蜒石墙环绕着，为像我这样的城市孩子提供了无尽的乐趣。)”可知，作者喜欢去农场是因为他可以在那里体验到新的乐趣。故选B项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段““Fred,” he said, smiling, “you made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, there’s only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are.”(“弗雷德，”他微笑着说，“你做了你自己，使今天成为一个特别的日子。永远记住，这个世界上只有一个人喜欢你，我喜欢真实的你。”)”可知，作者的祖父支持他遵从自己的内心。故选D项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段““I want to climb the stone walls.” I said. “Heavens, no! You’ll hurt yourself !” The response was just as I’d expected. But before I left the room, I was stopped by my grandfather’s loud voice. “Now hold on just a minute.” I heard him say. “Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things for himself.”(“我想爬上石墙。”我说。“老天，不！你会伤到自己的!”大家的反应和我预料的一样。但在我离开房间之前，我被祖父的大声的声音打断了。“现在请稍等一下。”我听见他说。“让孩子爬上石墙。他必须学会自己做事。”)”可推知，祖父赞成孩子学会自己做事，所以祖父是一个非常开明的人。故选B项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章最后一句““There’s only one person in this whole world like you,” the kids will hear me say, “ and people can like you exactly as you are.”(“这个世界上只有一个人喜欢你，”孩子们会听到我说，“人们会喜欢真实的你。”)”以及结合作者与祖父之间的故事可知，本文主要围绕着“敢于做自己”这一主题展开，故C项“Just Be Yourself.(做你自己)”概括全文，作为文章的标题最合适。故选C项。
C
People will tell you the only way to really learn a language is to completely immerse(浸入)yourself in a country where that language is spoken. Not all language learners, of course, will have the opportunity to spend some time in an immersion environment. But if you can't actually fly across the world to learn a new language, you can always create an immersion environment where you can talk to native speakers.
That's where Babbel comes in. Babbel is one of the most popular language learning apps on the market for studying new languages at your own pace. The app emphasises real-life conversational skills, so you won't be stopped by grammatical structures and verb patterns.
And right now, you can get 15%off a lifetime subscription (订阅)to Babbel Language Learning（$150; ）.A lifetime subscription is huge when it comes to getting the most out of the app, since you'll be able to return to lessons time and time again and brush up on whichever section or topic you might need.
So how does it all work First, you'll choose one of the 14 languages. While Babbel offers familiar languages like Spanish and Italian, it also offers less commonly studied ones like Polish, Indonesian and more. Once you pick your language, you'll choose a wide range of real-life topics. Each course takes about 10 to 15 minutes, so you can pick one up on the way to work, during your lunch break, or really at any point you have some time to kill.
Beyond this, Babbel includes a ton of additional features tailored to making sure you learn the language in a real, practical and accurate way. The app uses speech recognition technology to make sure your pronunciation is accurate compared with how native speakers would say certain words.
8. What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us
A. The terrifying experiences of travelling. B. The importance of language learning environment.
C. Different ways to learn a new language. D. Opportunities to communicate with native speakers.
9. What can we know about Babbel

C. Calculate the reading time. D. Choose a proper topic.
11. Why does Babbel use speech recognition technology

【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“People will tell you the only way to really learn a language is to completely immerse yourself in a country where that language is spoken. Not all language learners, of course,will have the opportunity to spend some time in an immersion environment. But if you can't actually fly across the world to learn a new language, you can always create an immersion environment where you can talk to native speakers.（人们会告诉你真正学习一门语言的唯一方法是完全沉浸在使用该语言的国家中。当然，并不是所有的语言学习者都有机会在浸入式环境中度过一段时间。但如果你真的不能飞越世界去学习一门新语言，你总是可以创造一个沉浸式的环境，在那里你可以和母语人士交谈。）”可知，此段主要阐述语言学习环境对学习语言是非常重要的。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“Babbel is one of the most popular language learning apps on the market for studying new languages at your own pace.（Babbel是市场上最受欢迎的语言学习应用程序之一，可以根据自己的节奏学习新语言。）”可知，Babbel是一款学习语言的应用程序，即一种学习语言的工具。故选A。

While Babbel offers familiar languages like Spanish and Italian，it also offers less commonly studied ones like Polish，Indonesian and more.（首先，你要从14种语言中选择一种。虽然Babbel提供西班牙语和意大利语等人们熟悉的语言，但它也提供波兰语、印尼语等较少人学习的语言。）”可知，使用者首先要从学习软件提供的14种语言中挑选一种自己想要学习的语言。故选B。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“The app uses speech recognition technology to make sure your pronunciation is accurate compared with how native speakers would say certain words.（该应用程序使用语音识别技术来确保你的发音与母语人士说某些单词的发音相比是准确的。）”可知，Babbel用语音识别技术来确保发音的准确性。故选D。

David Katz was unhappy about all the plastic (塑料) going into the ocean. To help solve the problem, he had an unusual idea. Mr Katz calls his idea the “Plastic Bank”.
In poor countries, people are already working so hard just to get enough food to eat, to find a place to live, and to keep themselves healthy. Spending time on recycling (回收再利用) doesn’t make sense when you’re simply trying to survive.
The purpose of the Plastic Bank is to use plastic to help these people solve the problems that worry them the most—food, shelter, and health. So Plastic Bank adds a value to plastic waste by paying people to recycle it.
The program began in 2015 in Haiti, a poor island nation that doesn’t have strong programs for recycling. Plastic is often simply thrown out and ends up in rivers and the ocean.
The Plastic Bank has opened 30 “markets” in Haiti. At Plastic Bank markets, people can trade the plastic they’ve collected for money or other things they need. The Plastic Bank markets sell many things that local people need, such as cooking oil and heating oil. The stores also allow plastic collectors to use the money they get to pay for health care or school. For those who have cell phones, Plastic Bank can put the money they get into a special bank account (账户) that they can control using an app. This keeps their money safe.
To make sure the plastic gets recycled, the Plastic Bank works with those who agree to use the plastic that is collected. For example, the British company Marks & Spencer and the German company Henkel are both paying more to use recycled plastic from the Plastic Bank in their products. When customers buy these products, which are labeled (标记) “Social Plastic”, they know that they are helping people in other parts of the world and keeping plastic out of the ocean.
The Plastic Bank has programs in Haiti, the Philippines, and Brazil. So far, the Plastic Bank has kept about 7 million pounds of plastic out of the ocean.
12. What might most Haitians think of plastic waste before 2015
A. It was harmful. B. It was priceless.
C. It was valueless. D. It was recyclable.
13. What makes the Plastic Bank successful in Haiti
A. The high value of the local plastic.
B. The local people’s basic needs for life.
C. The local people’s care for the environment.
D. The great support from the local government.
14. How does the Plastic Bank deal with the plastic waste it collects
A. By storing the waste in its special bank.
B. By using the waste to produce oil and gas.
C. By sending the waste to poor countries for reuse.
D. By selling the waste to others who make products.
15. What would be the best title for the text
A. Helping the poor. B. Cleaning the ocean.
C. Collecting plastic waste. D. Treating plastic like money.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一个名为“塑料银行”的项目，它在保护环境的同时，又为贫困人群的基本生活提供了帮助。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段内容“The program began in 2015 in Haiti, a poor island nation that doesn’t have strong programs for recycling. Plastic is often simply thrown out and ends up in rivers and the ocean.(该项目于2015年在海地启动，海地是一个贫穷的岛国，没有强有力的回收项目。塑料通常被简单地扔掉，最终流入河流和海洋)”可知，在2015年回收项目启动之前，海地人直接把塑料扔掉，最终流入河流和海洋。由此推知，2015年之前，大多数海地人认为塑料垃圾没有价值，所以才会扔掉。故选C项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段关键句“The Plastic Bank has opened 30 “markets” in Haiti. At Plastic Bank markets, people can trade the plastic they’ve collected for money or other things they need. The Plastic Bank markets sell many things that local people need, such as cooking oil and heating oil.(“塑料银行”在海地开设了30个“市场”。在“塑料银行”市场，人们可以用收集到的塑料换钱或其他他们需要的东西。塑料银行市场出售许多当地人需要的东西，如食用油和燃料油)”可知，“塑料银行”在海地取得成功，开设了30个“市场”，因为“塑料银行”允许当地人用收集到的塑料换钱或其他他们需要的东西，满足当地人民的基本生活需要。由此可知，当地人民的基本生活需要让“塑料银行”在海地取得成功。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段关键句“To make sure the plastic gets recycled, the Plastic Bank works with those who agree to use the plastic that is collected. For example, the British company Marks & Spencer and the German company Henkel are both paying more to use recycled plastic from the Plastic Bank in their products.(为了确保塑料得到回收，“塑料银行”与那些同意使用收集的塑料的人合作。例如，英国公司Marks & Spencer和德国公司Henkel都在支付更高的费用，以便在产品中使用塑料银行回收的塑料)”可知，“塑料银行”把收集的塑料卖给那些同意在产品中使用这些塑料的人，以这种方式确保塑料得到回收。由此可知，“塑料银行”把收集的塑料垃圾卖给其他需要用塑料生产产品的人。故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读文章，结合第三段关键句“The purpose of the Plastic Bank is to use plastic to help these people solve the problems that worry them the most — food, shelter, and health.(塑料银行的目的是用塑料来帮助这些人解决他们最担心的——食物、住所和健康问题)”可知，文章主要介绍了一个名为“塑料银行”的项目，它鼓励人们收集塑料，并赋予塑料像金钱一样的能力，允许人们用塑料换取生活必需品，以这种方式既保护了环境，又为贫困人群的基本生活提供了帮助。由此可知，Treating plastic like money(像对待金钱一样对待塑料)适合作本文最佳标题。故选D项。

第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分 50 分)
第一节 (共 15 小题;每小题 2.5 分，满分 37.5 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。
A
Animals were the real pioneers of space flight. Let us learn about some animals that have been to space.
A. Fruit flies
On February 20, 1947, the United States sent some fruit flies into space to study the impact that cosmic radiation (宇宙辐射) might potentially have on astronauts in the future. They chose flies because they are genetically similar to humans.
When they returned to Earth, the scientists found the flies alive, with no evidence of the effects of radiation.
B. Mice
Mice have long been used to find out more about how space travel will affect the human body. In fact, NASA has recently published a study of mice housed at the International Space Station. It shows that mice quickly adapt to microgravity (微重力) conditions.
The very first mouse went into space in 1950, reaching an altitude of 137km. However, unlike the fruit flies, the mouse died when the rocket broke into parts due to a parachute (降落伞) failure.
C. Dogs
Laika, a Russian homeless dog, went to space on November 3, 1957. She was picked up on the streets and was thought suitable because she had a gentle temperament (性情) and behaved well. The scientists also believed a homeless dog would be better at dealing with difficult conditions like microgravity than a pet dog.
Laika is famous for being the first animal to orbit (环绕……运行) the Earth. However, she never returned.
D. Spiders
In 1973, two garden spiders called Anita and Arabella were used in an experiment to see if they could still build webs in space.
Both spiders managed to build webs, even though the webs were slightly finer than on Earth. The study showed a great deal about the effects of microgravity on motor response (运动反应).
1. What can we learn about the mouse astronaut
A. It failed to come back alive.
B. It couldn’t survive in microgravity conditions.
C. Its genes were similar to humans’.
D. It was the first animal to be sent to space.
2. Laika was chosen by the scientists for all the following reasons EXCEPT ________ .
A. her good temperament B. her identity as a pet dog
C. her ability to deal with microgravity D. her good behavior
3. What’s the purpose of sending the two spiders to space
A. To compare the quality of webs they made on Earth and in space.
B. To study the impact of cosmic radiation on their survival.
C. To see how fast they could build webs in space.
D. To see whether they could build webs in space.
B
As a child, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday afternoons at my grandfather’s farm in western Pennsylvania. Surrounded by miles of stone walls, the house and field provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me.
Since my first visit to the farm, I had wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stone walls surrounding the houses. My parents would never agree because the walls were so old that some stones were loose and falling. However, my idea to climb across those walls grew so strong that finally I had all my courage to enter the living room, where the adults had gathered after Sunday dinner.
“I want to climb the stone walls.” I said. “Heavens, no! You’ll hurt yourself !” The response was just as I’d expected. But before I left the room, I was stopped by my grandfather’s loud voice. “Now hold on just a minute.” I heard him say. “Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things for himself.”
“Go,” he said to me, “and come and see me when you get back.” For the next two and a half hours I climbed those old walls — and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventures. I’ll never forget what he said. “Fred,” he said, smiling, “you made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember, there’s only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are.”
Many years have passed since then, and today I host the television program Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, seen by millions of children throughout America. There have been changes over the years, but one thing remains the same: my message to children at the end of almost every visit. “There’s only one person in this whole world like you,” the kids will hear me say, “ and people can like you exactly as you are.”
4. Why did the writer enjoy his visits to the farm
A. There were old stone houses. B. He could experience new fun there.
C. He missed his grandfather a lot. D. He was allowed to climb the walls.
5. What can be inferred about the writer from the passage
A. He didn’t know the possible danger of the stone walls.
B. He didn’t expect his parents’ disagreement on wall climbing.
C. He became a TV program host with his grandfather’s help.
D. He was backed up by his grandfather to follow his heart.
6. Which of the following can best describe the author’s grandfather
A. Adventurous. B. Open-minded.
C. Kind-hearted. D. Dependable.
7. Which is probably the best title for the text
A. Unforgettable Childhood B. Do Whatever You Like
C. Just Be Yourself D. Like grandfather, like grandson
C
People will tell you the only way to really learn a language is to completely immerse(浸入)yourself in a country where that language is spoken. Not all language learners, of course, will have the opportunity to spend some time in an immersion environment. But if you can't actually fly across the world to learn a new language, you can always create an immersion environment where you can talk to native speakers.
That's where Babbel comes in. Babbel is one of the most popular language learning apps on the market for studying new languages at your own pace. The app emphasises real-life conversational skills, so you won't be stopped by grammatical structures and verb patterns.
And right now, you can get 15%off a lifetime subscription (订阅)to Babbel Language Learning（$150; ）.A lifetime subscription is huge when it comes to getting the most out of the app, since you'll be able to return to lessons time and time again and brush up on whichever section or topic you might need.
So how does it all work First, you'll choose one of the 14 languages. While Babbel offers familiar languages like Spanish and Italian, it also offers less commonly studied ones like Polish, Indonesian and more. Once you pick your language, you'll choose a wide range of real-life topics. Each course takes about 10 to 15 minutes, so you can pick one up on the way to work, during your lunch break, or really at any point you have some time to kill.
Beyond this, Babbel includes a ton of additional features tailored to making sure you learn the language in a real, practical and accurate way. The app uses speech recognition technology to make sure your pronunciation is accurate compared with how native speakers would say certain words.
8. What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us
A The terrifying experiences of travelling. B. The importance of language learning environment.
C. Different ways to learn a new language. D. Opportunities to communicate with native speakers.
9. What can we know about Babbel
A. It's a tool for learning languages. B. It is designed in various types.
C. It focuses more on grammar structures. D. It's the most popular app in the market.
10. What should the users do first to learn with the app
A. Choose the place to learn a course. B. Pick the language they want to learn.
C. Calculate the reading time. D. Choose a proper topic.
11. Why does Babbel use speech recognition technology
A. To represent its additional features. B. To meet the needs of native speakers.
C. To compare differences between words. D. To make the pronunciation correct.

David Katz was unhappy about all the plastic (塑料) going into the ocean. To help solve the problem, he had an unusual idea. Mr Katz calls his idea the “Plastic Bank”.
In poor countries, people are already working so hard just to get enough food to eat, to find a place to live, and to keep themselves healthy. Spending time on recycling (回收再利用) doesn’t make sense when you’re simply trying to survive.
The purpose of the Plastic Bank is to use plastic to help these people solve the problems that worry them the most—food, shelter, and health. So Plastic Bank adds a value to plastic waste by paying people to recycle it.
The program began in 2015 in Haiti, a poor island nation that doesn’t have strong programs for recycling. Plastic is often simply thrown out and ends up in rivers and the ocean.
The Plastic Bank has opened 30 “markets” in Haiti. At Plastic Bank markets, people can trade the plastic they’ve collected for money or other things they need. The Plastic Bank markets sell many things that local people need, such as cooking oil and heating oil. The stores also allow plastic collectors to use the money they get to pay for health care or school. For those who have cell phones, Plastic Bank can put the money they get into a special bank account (账户) that they can control using an app. This keeps their money safe.
To make sure the plastic gets recycled, the Plastic Bank works with those who agree to use the plastic that is collected. For example, the British company Marks & Spencer and the German company Henkel are both paying more to use recycled plastic from the Plastic Bank in their products. When customers buy these products, which are labeled (标记) “Social Plastic”, they know that they are helping people in other parts of the world and keeping plastic out of the ocean.
The Plastic Bank has programs in Haiti, the Philippines, and Brazil. So far, the Plastic Bank has kept about 7 million pounds of plastic out of the ocean.
12. What might most Haitians think of plastic waste before 2015
A. It was harmful. B. It was priceless.
C. It was valueless. D. It was recyclable.
13. What makes the Plastic Bank successful in Haiti
A. The high value of the local plastic.
B. The local people’s basic needs for life.
C. The local people’s care for the environment.
D. The great support from the local government.
14. How does the Plastic Bank deal with the plastic waste it collects
A. By storing the waste in its special bank.
B. By using the waste to produce oil and gas.
C. By sending the waste to poor countries for reuse.
D. By selling the waste to others who make products.
15. What would be the best title for the text
A. Helping the poor. B. Cleaning the ocean.
C. Collecting plastic waste. D. Treating plastic like money.
