【题目】 Fearmongering (散布恐慌) against China more dangerous to global economy than coronavirus.

After weeks of attempting to make chaos and spread fear about the outbreak of the novel coronavirus epidemic in China, some overseas media outlets and individuals have shifted focus to another battlefield — the Chinese economy. They paint a rather dark picture not just for the Chinese economy but for the global economy.

1People cannot help but panic about the global economy, which is already facing serious challenges like trade wars. It is easy to point fingers at China for “causing” such a mess for the world.

Anyway, these media outlets are right about a couple of things. 2 After all, consumers across the country are trapped in their homes and businesses and factories have been shut for a good part of this year. Second, we have to be fully aware of these challenges and risks in order to address the problem. The first step to solve a problem is to recognize there is one.

3 If not, why would they invest hundreds of billions of dollars into the economy if they weren’t aware of the problem? Why would they roll out a great number of measures to support businesses?4

Regardless of how severe the impact will be, the epidemic does not change the fundamentals of the Chinese economy.5 There will be no reason that the vast Chinese consumer market will abruptly disappear or the world will suddenly no longer need products from the massive Chinese manufacturing sector, not to mention the country’s huge investment projects. So it can be safe to say that fearmongering against China is more dangerous to global economy than coronavirus.

A.With the effective measures taken by the whole country, the epidemic will be definitely under control.

B.Certainly, that paints a completely different picture we have seen from abroad.

C.First, the epidemic will make the Chinese economy suffer a little.

D.Still, there are many indicators to look for in assessing the potential damage on the Chinese and global economies.

E.Their articles are filled with scary headlines and exaggerated (夸大的) facts.

F.Why would they take extraordinary risks in encouraging factories to restart production?

G.Actually, Chinese officials have been very clear about the potential impact of the epidemic on the economy.

【题目】 Engineers have launched a huge garbage collection device to gather plastics floating in the Pacific Ocean between California and Hawaii. The plastic makes up what is called the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. It is the world’s largest spread of garbage, twice the size of the state of Texas.

The Organization Ocean Cleanup created the collection device. The group’s founder is Boyan Slat, a 24-year-old inventor from the Netherlands. When Slat was 16, he went diving in Mediterranean Sea and saw more plastic bags than fish. Since then, he has made up his mind to clean up the oceans.

He told the Associated Press that researchers with his organization have found plastic from the 1960s and 1970s among the material in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. It contains an estimated 1.8 trillion pieces of plastic in total. Most of them float on the surface of the water, or are within a few meters of the surface.

Last Saturday, a ship pulling the pipe-shaped floating barrier left San Francisco for the Garbage Patch. The barrier, called the floater, is 600 meters across. Attached to it is a screen (筛子) that hangs three meters down in the water. The screen is designed to collect the plastic as it moves through the water. Sea animals can safely swim under the barrier. The cleanup system also comes with lights powered by the sun, cameras, and other special devices. Slat said this enabled the system to communicate its position at all times.

Shipping containers will hold all the plastic gathered, including bottles and fishing equipment. Slat said the containers were expected to be back on land within a year. Then the plastic will be recycled. And they will also study how the system performs in severe ocean conditions, including huge waves.

1How did Boyan Slat react to that dive in the Mediterranean Sea?

A.He showed a great interest in diving.

B.He became worried about his safety.

C.He decided to remove the garbage in oceans.

2What has the organization Ocean Cleanup found about the Great Pacific Garbage Patch?

A.Most of its plastic is half a century old.

B.It covers almost the size of the state of Texas.

C.Altogether there are about 1.8 billion pieces of plastic.

D.The majority of its plastic floats on or near the surface.

3Why was a screen attached to the ship?

A.To power lights in the ship.B.To protect sea animals near it.

C.To tell the position of the ship.D.To collect plastic along the way.

4What is the text mainly about?
