8．Lucy Hughes，a 24-year-old English inventor，has used skin and scales （鱗）from fish to create a new kind of plastic that will break down in about six weeks.Her invention won this year's James Dyson Award.
Ms.Hughes was very aware of how wasteful many products are.Plastic items （物品），for example，are often made from new plastic，used once for a short time，and then thrown away.She decided to challenge herself to make something out of waste instead.
Fishing is a big business in England，and the University of Sussex where Ms.Hughes studied wasn't far from the coast.She spent some time studying the fishing business，and the things that were thrown away.She was amazed by the amount of waste from fish that gets thrown away.
After some tests，Ms.Hughes decided that the fish skin and scales seemed like the most likely parts for her product.But then she needed something to bind （hold the material together） with.She found that red algae （紅藻）was the best binder.
Ms.Hughes called her finished product "MarinaTex"，which is clear and feels like plastic，but stronger than regular plastic of the same thickness.MarinaTex is also cheap to make since it's made from fish waste.Ms.Hughes says that the waste from one Atlantic cod （a fish） could make 1，400 bags.The process of making MarinaTex also doesn't use much energy.Most importantly，MarinaTex doesn't take hundreds of years to break down.
Ms.Hughes thinks that one of the best uses for MarinaTex will be in some kinds of food packaging where plastic is currently being used.Ms.Hughes is looking forward to moving ahead with her idea.She wants to try to make her recipe for making her plastic even better.She hopes the award money will help her with the process of getting MarinaTex into use as quickly as possible.
（1）Why did Lucy Hughes invent MarinaTex？
A．To turn waste into treasure.
B．To win James Dyson Award.
C．To gain people's wide attention.
D．To help the local fishing business.
（2）What is MarinaTex's greatest advantage over traditional plastic？
A．It is of higher quality.
B．It is more convenient to use.
C．Its production cost is fairly low.
D．It can break down in a short time.
（3）What can we know from the last paragraph？
A．MarinaTex has been put to practical use.
B．Lucy Hughes hopes for more fund support.
C．Lucy Hughes intends to improve her invention.
D．MarinaTex will replace regular plastic in food packaging.
（4）What can be the best title for the text？
A．Red Algae：the Best Binder to Hold Materials
B．Young Inventor Creates Plastic from Fish Skin
C．Fish Waste Has Affected the Environment Seriously
D．Lucy Hughes：an English Inventor Won James Dyson Award組卷：1引用：2難度：0.5 -
9．A rainforest is an area covered by tall trees with the total high rainfall spreading quite equally through the year and the temperature rarely dipping below 16℃．Rainforests have a great effect on the world environment because they can take in heat from the sun and adjust the climate．Without the forest cover，these areas would reflect more heat into the atmosphere，warming the rest of the world．Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns，potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world．
In the past hundred years，humans have begun destroying rainforests in search of three major resources：land for crops，wood for paper and other products，land for raising farm animals．This action affects the environment as a whole．For example，a lot of carbon dioxide（二氧化碳）in the air comes from burning the rainforests．People obviously have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees but we will suffer much more than we will benefit．
There are two main reasons forthis．Firstly，when people cut down trees，generally they can only use the land for a year or two．Secondly，cutting large sections of rainforests may provide a good supply of wood right now，but in the long run it actually reduces the world's wood supply．
Rainforests are often called the world's drug store．More than 25% of the medicines we use today come from plants in rainforests．However，fewer than l%of rainforest plants have been examined for their medical value．It is extremely likely that our best chance to cure diseases lies somewhere in the world's shrinking rainforests．
（1）Rainforests can help to adjust the climate because they．
A．reflect more heat into the atmosphere
B．bring about high rainfall throughout the world
C．rarely cause the temperature to drop lower than 16℃
D．reduce the effect of heat from the sun on the earth
（2）What does the word "this" underlined in the third paragraph refer to？
A．We will lose much more than we can gain．
B．Humans have begun destroying rainforests．
C．People have a strong desire for resources．
D．Much carbon dioxide comes from burning rainforests．
（3）It can be inferred from the text that．
A．we can get enough resources without rainforests
B．there is great medicine potential in rainforests
C．we will grow fewer kinds of crops in the gained land
D．the level of annual rainfall affects wind patterns
（4）What might be the best title for the text？
A．How to Save Rainforests
B．How to Protect Nature
C．Rainforests and the Environment
D．Rainforests and Medical Development組卷：4引用：3難度：0.4 -
