People are surprised to hear this. “They think, ‘I don’t need to drive, and the business doesn’t need to build a store, so there will be less pollution,’” says Nuria Prost, an environmental scientist. “But it is not so simple. In fact, online shopping is wasteful. It also adds to air pollution.”

In truth, the Internet is not always as good a friend to the environment as it seems. For example, most people thought that the Internet would help offices use less paper and other materials. But paper use increased by 33 percent between 1986 and 1997. “Online shopping could have similarly negative effects,” says Nevil Cohen, a professor of environmental science.

Part of the problem is what people are buying these days. In the past, people bought things on the Internet that did not require much packing material, such as books and clothing. But now people also shop online for large, heavy products such as televisions, computers, and furniture. These products need to be packed in large amounts of plastic and paper. This creates a lot of waste.

Another problem caused by online shopping is air pollution. When customers buy products and ask for next-day delivery, companies often have to send them by air. Airplanes use much more fuel than cars and produce more carbon dioxide (CO2). When people buy a lot of different things from different online businesses, this creates even more travel by airplane.

Online product returns are also a problem. For example, an online shoe store may allow customers to return shoes without extra pay if they are the wrong size. This doubles the packing material and number of airplane trips required to sell one pair of shoes.

“If people want to protect the environment, they need to think before they shop,” says Prost. “People need to ask themselves: Is this exactly what I want? Do I really need it tomorrow, or can I wait?” Online stores can also charge（收费）customers for returns. This may make people shop more carefully. “Online shopping is fast and easy,” says Prost, “but we can’t forget the negative effects it has on the environment.”

【1】Why does online shopping create a lot of waste?

A.Because companies charge more for product returns.

B.Because paper use has increased by 33 percent from 1986 to 1997.

C.Because large, heavy products require much packing material.

D.Because people buy too many things they don’t need.

【2】Prost probably agrees that________.

A.people should drive to stores to buy things

B.online shopping saves more than shopping in a store

C.people can buy things online without careful consideration

D.online shopping adds pollution to the environment

【3】What is probably the best title of the passage?

A.A Good Deal to Make?B.A Cleaner Way to Shop?

C.A New Business to Start?D.A Different Lifestyle to Keep?

【题目】阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容回答问题。

Yangshuo is an amazing riverside town near Guilin in Guangxi. There are plenty of things you can do in Yangshuo. I spent almost a week in the pretty town enjoying its beautiful views.

On my last day, I walked along the streets in the old town. As I was walking by the river. I saw a small group of elderly people playing cards, singing and chatting around a table. They were excited to meet me ,a foreign visitor, and filled my hands with a cup of green tea, peanuts（花生）and biscuits.

When they failed to communicate with me in Chinese, they took out their pen and paper and wrote down what they wanted to say in Chinese characters, but I still couldn’t understand them. Finally, we turned to a special language we all understood—music.

They took out their Chinese songbook and started singing to me. I laughed and tried to sing together with them, and I was sure my singing in Chinese sounded funny to them, but they enjoyed it and so did I. My singing style finally got lots of praise and laughter. At last, they were really sad when I had to say goodbye to them.

We humans really like the Sun. We love the 【1】 the Sun provides. Do you know how 【2】 the Sun is to us here on Earth? What would happen if the Sun 【3】 disappeared or went out?

While some humans might be able to survive on a Sun-less Earth for several days, months, or even light from the Sun 【6】 eight and a half minutes to reach Earth, so we wouldn’t notice immediately if the Sun suddenly went out. However, nine minutes later, we would find 【7】 in complete darkness.

Without the Sun’s warmth, Earth would quickly become a much 【8】 place. 【9】estimate (估计) that the average global surface temperature would drop below -17℃ within a week or so.

In France and the USA, a child will put a fallen tooth under his or her pillow before going to bed. It is thought that in the early morning, when the child is still sleeping, the Tooth Fairy will take the tooth away and leave something else under the pillow.
