B.阅读理解:
Have you ever stayed in a hotel? Most Chinese hotels o ften provide guests with things like disposable(一次性的) toothbrushes, toothp aste, shampoo and slippers. Many guests like the idea because they don ’ have to bring their own. But if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring these things of your own. That ’s because some hotels in Beijing have no longer provided guests with these disposables ( 一次性用品). Many disposable things are made of plastic. P eopl
e throw them away after only using them once. It ’s a waste of natural resources (资 源) and is very bad for the environment.
In Beijing, people throw away about 19,000 tons of plastic bags and 1,320 tons of lunch bowls every year!
Plastic can tak e 100 to 400 years to break down. So the less plastic we throw away , the better environment we will have.
So, wherever you travel, bring your own things and use them again and again. Back at home and school, you can also do something to mak e our world a better place. Try to do these things in your daily life:
Use cloth shopping bags, not plastic ones.
After using a plastic bag, wash it out and let it dry . Then use it over and over again. Do not use p ape r cups.
At your school canteen (餐厅), use your own bowls and chopsticks instead of disposable ones. 根据短文内容,判断正(T)误(F)。
( )1.Many guests like to use disposable things because they are very convenient 方便的). ( )2.Some Beijing hotels have no longer provided guests with free TV programmes. ( )3.Plastic breaks down easily.
( )4.After using a plastic bowl or a bag, we ’ b etter throw it away , because it ’s too dirty to use again.
( )5.We should use less plastic things and protect our environment.
