In Thailand, people use about eight plastic bags each day, almost 200 billion bags each year. As for causing ocean plastic pollution, Thailand is in the sixth place in the whole world. Thailand is waking up to the harmful effects of plastic pollution on our environment.
A supermarket chain in northern Thailand is returning to natural materials for everyday packaging use, including banana leaves. At first sight, Rimping Supermarket in Chiang Mai looks just like other supermarkets that use banana leaves to wrap (包裹) food across Thailand. However, it is unusual to see this traditional, biodegradable (可生物降解的) way used in a big way. Rimping Supermarket says that it no longer provides plastic bags every Wednesday for customers upon entering the place. In the supermarket, something different can be seen on the goods shelves of fresh vegetables. Instead of plastic, fresh products are wrapped in banana leaves. The leaves are great for packaging and once the customer is done with the packaging, the leaves are biodegradable, greatly reducing the need for plastics.
“We have discussed our environmental programme for a long time in our company,” a manager of Rimping Supermarket said. “We tried other materials before, but banana leaves are our final choice since there are plenty of banana leaves in Thailand. But the difficulty is to find a way to keep the products fresh. Some vegetables are not suitable to be wrapped in banana leaves as it becomes too wet and doesn’t keep its freshness,” the manager said.
Rimping Supermarket’s store programme can be seen as a huge step for a greener, plastic-free earth.
28. What is the problem described in the first paragraph
A. Thai shop too frequently. B. Thai overpack their food.
C. Thai pollute rivers seriously. D. Thai use too many plastics.
29. What can we learn about using banana leaves to wrap food
A. It isn’t something new in Thailand.
B. It is supported by the Thai government.
C. It first started from Rimping Supermarket.
D. It will be put into practice in more supermarkets.
30. Why did Rimping Supermarket finally choose banana leaves to wrap food
A. They are cheap.
B. They are easy to get.
C. They are the most environment-friendly.
D. They are perfect for wrapping fresh food.
31. What’s the text mainly about
A. A supermarket finds best ways to sell fresh food.
B. Plastic packaging causes serious problems.
C. Banana leaves replace plastic packaging.
D. Supermarkets shouldn’t offer plastic bags.
D
Scientists for the first time have found water in the atmosphere of an Earth-like planet orbiting a distant star. It is the evidence that a key ingredient(要素) for life exists beyond our solar system, according to a study published in 2019.
Water vapor was found in the atmosphere of K2-18b, one of the hundreds of “super-Earths” recorded in a new field of astronomy that explores the so- called exoplanets (系外行星), which are planets that orbit a star other than the sun. In total, more than 4,000 exoplanets of all types and sizes have been found.
The latest discovery was reported in research by a team of scientists at University College London (UCL) published in the journal Nature Astronomy. “We found water through the Hubble Space Telescope,” UCL astrophysicist Ingo Waldmann said. It marks the first time that scientists have found water in the atmosphere around a super-Earth.
Angelos Tsiaras, an astronomer at UCL, said the team is working on finding exoplanets whose conditions are similar to those on Earth. “But of course its purpose is not to find a place where we could go,” Tsiaras said. “While light from the sun takes several minutes to reach Earth, light from K2-18b’s star takes a century to reach our planet, so it’s impossible for us to travel there.”
“Considering it’s so far away, we don’t really have any other choice but to stay on our own Earth, so it’s important to make Earth great again rather than looking for another planet to take the place of Earth,” Tsiaras said.
Besides the quite long distance separating Earth from K2-18b, there is far more radiation (辐射) on the exoplanet than on Earth, which diminishes the possibility for life to exist. However, the discovery brings astronomers closer to answering the question of how special Earth is in the universe, the scientists said.
32. What did the scientists at UCL find out
A. Life exists on other planets.
B. More exoplanets are disappearing.
C. Water exists in the atmosphere of an exoplanet.
D. Exoplanets are similar to planets in the solar system.
33. What can be learnt about exoplanets
A. K2-18b is the biggest exoplanet.
B. Scientists know exoplanets well.
C. There are totally 4,000 exoplanets.
D. They don’t belong to the solar system.
34. What might Angelos Tsiaras agree with
A. We should protect our earth well.
B. We should make full use of solar energy.
C. We should study the planets near our earth.
D. We should try our best to find earth-like planets.
35. What does the underlined word “diminishes” in the last paragraph mean
A. Raises. B. Reduces. C. Faces. D. Admits.

第一节
One possible version:
Last Saturday, I paid a visit to an amazing Chinese painting and calligraphy exhibition organized by the Art Gallery of our province.
This exhibition featured the excellent Chinese paintings and calligraphy works of many local artists. However, what caught my great attention was the artworks from ordinary citizens. Though they were not professional, they truly had talent and their artworks were so vivid and impressive.
It was definitely an exciting experience for me. From this exhibition, I gained a better appreciation of traditional Chinese art and took great pride in traditional Chinese culture.
第二节
One possible version:
Emma started crying. Miss Maria went to her and wiped her tears and said, “You understand now my dear That’s how everyone else felt when you laughed at them. My child, instead of laughing, you can help the other person to get out of the uncomfortable situation. Trust me, it will make you feel much better.” Emma realized how bad she made everyone else feel.
Emma said sorry to everyone, especially Elva. “Elva, I am so sorry. I didn’t know you were hurt this much. I apologize to you for my foolish behavior.” “I understand. It’s OK and I forgive you. You realized your mistake and that’s enough for me, as long as you don’t do the same thing again,” Elva replied. “No! I have learned my lesson. From now on, I’ll help people in trouble rather than laugh at them for being stuck or unable to figure out the answer.” Afterward, Emma and Elva became friends and helped each other out when in trouble.

Attention please,ladies and gentlemen. Our bus is getting close to Cambridge,where we'll be stopping to eat. We'll have our lunch in the garden of a restaurant overlooking a small park that reminds people of a very famous tree. It's said that General George Washington took command of the army in 1775 under its very branched. It was almost 100 years later,in 1869,that the city of Cambridge celebrated the event and from that moment on,the tree was called the Washington Elm. Later the tree was attacked by insects and finally destroyed - in a storm. The remains of the tree were cut down and the growth rings were counted to find out how old the tree was. Well, it seems that if Washington had accepted the command of his army under this tree he must have done so on his knees. This particular elm couldn't have been over 3 or 4 years old in 1775. It is a well-known fact that Washington took command under an elm tree,but unfortunately it couldn't have been the famous Washington
Elm Well,enjoy your lunch. Watch your step as you leave the bus.
