16．The environmental group Heal the Bay organized a beach clean-up．And I was one of the volunteers．We went to Venice Beach to clean up the trash．
    At first glance，the beach didn't look dirty at all．But then I saw a Styrofoam（泡沫）cup half buried in the sand on the beach．I pulled hard and finally got it out．As we moved farther，we found pieces of Styrofoam spread all over the sand．The Heal the Bay representative had told us that these little pieces of Styrofoam and other small pieces of plastic are what actually harm sea life most．Sea animals eat the plastic．After eating it，they think they are full．As a result，they can die of starvation as they are cheated by their feeling and don't think they need to eat any food．
    We kept on picking up the trash．Then I saw someone with a full Heal the Bay trash bag and I went to see what was inside．When I opened the trash bag，I found everything from a pair of old jeans and a brown belt to headphones and some plastic bags．It made me very angry with the people who left their things behind without thinking what effects they might have on the ocean．
    It is really important to protect the ocean．The ocean covers 70 percent of the Earth's surface．A clean ocean not only helps animals in the ocean survive but also helps us survive．
    By noon，the sun was shining and the temperature was rising．The volunteers that had spread out across Venice Beach were coming back to throw the trash they had collected into the truck．I could not believe how much trash there was．All together we collected more than 135 bags of trash．I do hope that next time people go to the beach，they will stop littering．

56．Why did the environmental group go to Venice Beach？（No more than 6 words）
To clean up the trash
57．What does the underlined word"starvation"in Paragraph 2 mean in English？（1 word）
Hunger

He/She felt very angry
59．How much trash did the volunteer collect all together that day？（No more than 8 words）
They collected more than 135 bags of trash
60．What do you think of throwing plastic trash on the beach？And why？（No more than 25 words）
It's a very bad habit because trash thrown on the beach may end up in the sea，resulting in the death of many sea creatures．

15．"I can't live without my mobile phone!"is what I often hear people say as they talk about how mobiles have become an essential part of their lives．
    The all so common sight of heads bent，eyes staring at mobile screens and fingers busy tapping away repeats itself across major cities around the world．Whenever there is a moment to spare while on the train，taxi or waiting in a queue，people busy themselves with their mobile phones．
    Some people believe our unhealthy obsession with mobile phones is destroying how we appreciate the little things in life or miss the moments that matter．The truth is that technology overall should be seen as just a tool to improve our lives．
    Mobile phones have certainly had a great influence on our lives，but I truly believe it is for the better．
    It's changed the way we communicate，whether for work or play．We are now less constrained（限制）by time and geographical location．With my mobile phone，I can dial into conference calls while stuck in a traffic jam，or reply to urgent e-mails while on the go．I can send a text message or share photos and videos with friends who aren't living in the same country．My phone calendar keeps my life organized，and even Facebook，Twitter，and instant messaging are now accessible from mobile phones!
    The mobile revolution isn't just changing the lives of urbanities （都市人） like myself．I know of a young Bangladeshi woman named Shompa Akhter who is crazy about fashion and design．She dreamt about starting her own business and she did just that，opening a shop in Kushtia featuring her own creations．Dealing with supplies in different towns was a problem for Shompa---purchase orders had to either be hand delivered or mailed out to supplies．Shompa also found it tough publicizing （宣传）her business to potential customers outside her town．But once she learnt to operate the mobile phone，she was addicted．The 25-year-old businesswoman now stays in touch easily with her suppliers．Mobile e-mail is a blessing in her life．
    Who would have thought that mobility could bring about such enormous change？It shouldn't really be a surprise though．
