According to the Natural Resources Defense Co...

According to the Natural Resources Defense Council, an international nonprofit (非盈利的) environmental organization, Shenzhen tops all Chinese cities in walking environment. It’s reported that Shenzhen has built a number of parks and greenways in recent years. Now there are about 2,500 kilometres of greenways available for people to enjoy healthy activities.

In order to make greenways that satisfy people, the Shenzhen Greenway Office has set up rest areas, environmental-friendly toilets, signs and so on. At a rest area on the Shatou greenway in Futian District, things like medical kits and drinking water are available for people. “We can stay here to keep out of the rain and have water to drink, which is good,” said a cleaner who often goes there and drinks some of the water. At another rest area on the round-city greenway in Longhua District, people can see many volunteers providing help for others. More places such as nursery rooms (育婴室) and book bars have also been set up there.

A map, called the Shenzhen greenway coverage map, shows the general layout (布局) of the city’s greenways. And each district has one greenway map with information introducing the history and tourist places along the greenway. A woman living in Futian District says that she takes a walk on a greenway every weekend and the greenway map helps her a lot. “It offers a lot of information, such as how long the greenway is and where the toilets are,” she said.

With more greenways available, an increasing number of people are walking on the greenways as a way to relax and exercise. And it has become a popular lifestyle choice among people living in Shenzhen.

People often decide where to live based on the natural resources in the area. Natural resources are things that are useful to people and come from the earth. Materials for building houses are natural resources. So are foods, such as fruits, vegetables, animals that could be caught or hunted and water.

The weather and land forms let certain things grow in different areas. They also determine(决定)which living things will be able to grow there. Areas with very rich soil are made to be good farming communities. Poor soil may send farmers to look for better places. However, areas with poor soil may attract those who have other purposes for the land. Poor soil doesn’t matter if you want to build a factory. It also doesn’t matter if it grows grass well.

Each area attracts people based on their interests and purposes. Areas that support many different interests will naturally have larger populations. You may not think of the mountains, lakes or oceans as natural resources. In fact they are. Villages and cities built near water sources have been the most successful. People who want to catch fish for a living choose to live by the ocean, instead of the desert. People living near water can use it to meet their daily needs.

Places that are difficult to reach will naturally have fewer people. Places that are high on mountain tops are not very desirable to most people. Neither are places that are in the middle of hot, dry deserts.

For too long, humans have destroyed resources. We have been using up those that can’t be easily replaced. Renewable(可再生的) resources are those that can be replaced easily. We are lucky to have many resources that are renewable, such as the sun, wind, water and trees. We need to use more renewable resources. This will protect our planet.

1.Areas with very rich soil can be used as_______.

A. fishing places　　 B. ranching places

C. a factory　　 D. farming communities

2.What does the third paragraph mainly tell us?

A. What people living near water live on except fishing.

B. How big villages and cities by the oceans come out.

C. People choose places to live according to interests and purposes.

D. People don’t live in places that are difficult to reach.

3.Which of the following does NOT belong to natural resources?

A. Animals that could be caught.　　 B. Beds, tables and chairs.

C. The mountains, lakes or oceans.　　 D. Materials for building houses.

4.What is the best title for the passage?

A. The natural resources.　　 B. An area’s weather.

C. How to choose your house.　　 D. Renewable resources.

5.This passage may come from________.

A. a story　　 B. a fashion magazine　　 C. a school report　　 D. a cartoon film

Nowadays more and more people care about the exploitation(开采)of the natural resources, such as oil. Though there’re many kinds of resources, with the fast increase of population and the increase of many more factories, the more we use, the fewer there will be left for the future. Oil is getting less and less year after year. It’s said that oil can last for only 50 years. Natural gas perhaps will last about 38 years.

Oil can be used in many ways and it’s difficult to imagine what the modern world will be like without oil. But oil isn’t easy to find and get out of the earth. Men must study the rocks. When they think the rocks in a certain place may have oil, a metal tower is built. A machine in the tower cuts a hole down into the ground. At the same time, a steel pipe(钢管)is pushed down to stop the sides from falling in and to keep out water. At last if the men are right, usually the oil rushes up the sides with great force(力量)by the pressure(压力)of the gas in the top of the rock, and it rushes high into the air. If the oil catches a light, there will be a terrible fire. So a kind of cover is fixed on the top of the pipe, and the oil can run out through taps(活塞).

If we are near the middle of the oil field, we can also get gas. Such gas is sent through pipes to towns far away and used in houses and factories like coal gas.

Today oil is under pressure as never before. The price of oil keeps rising all the time. In many countries, the governments encourage people to save oil as much as possible.

1.The word “resource” in the passage means ___________.　　　　　 .

A.资源　　　　　　 　　　　　 B.现象　　　　　

C.商品　　　　 　　　　　　　 　 D. 资金

2.Which is the right order of the exploitation of oil?

a. push down a steel pipe.　　　　　　　　 b. study the rocks.

c. build a metal tower.　　　　　　　　　　 d. oil rushes up.

A. b, c, d, a　　　　 　　 B. b, a, c, d　　　　

C. b, c, a, d　　 　　　　 　 D. c, a, d, b

3.Which of the following can be true according to (根据)the passage?

A. Coal gas can’t be used in houses and factories.

B. Oil is very important in the modern world.

C. Many governments encourage people to waste oil as much as possible.

D. It’s very easy to get the oil.

4.The oil is getting______________ but its price is getting _____________.

A. more and more, lower and lower　　　　　　

B. less and less, higher and higher

C. less and less, lower and lower　　　　　　　　

D. more and more, higher and higher

5.The governments are ________ because the resources are under pressure.

A. Reuse things.

B. Save natural resources.

C. Try not to use anything just one time.

D. Stop riding in cars.

E. Recycle paper.

F. Use the car less often.

We know our planet is getting warmer. The earth needs help. “What can I do?” you may ask and you may think you are just a kid. In fact, everyone can do something to help. What can you do?

1. Don't ask your parents to drive you somewhere when you could easily walk or ride your bike. The car is one of the biggest causes of the pollution. Getting more exercise is good for your body, too.

2. Recycling means reusing something old to make new things. Newspapers, old magazines, phone books and white paper can be recycled. Recycling a ton of paper can save seventeen trees. Visiting your town's recycling center. Learn the rules and start to recycle.

3. Buying used things is cheaper than buying new things. Sell or give away your used things and toys to those needed. They can use them again instead of buying the new ones. Reuse plastic or glass bottles instead of throwing them away in the trash. Reuse the plastic bags when shopping.

4. Turn off the water when you brush your teeth. Turn off lights, radios, TVs, computers, and other electrical things when you leave the room. When you don't use the computer, shut it down. It saves much electricity if you let it “sleep”.

5. Don't buy single-use water bottles. Use a glass or plastic container(容器) that can be washed and reused. Use a lunch box or bag instead of paper bags to pack lunches for school or picnics.

What we do today affects our future generations. Let's take care of the earth!

Rivers are one of our most important natural resources (资源). Many of the world's great cities are located(坐落) on rivers, and almost every country has at least one river running through it that plays an important role in the lives of its people.

Since the beginning of the history, people have used rivers for transportation(运输). The longest one in the United States is the Mississippi. The lifeline of Egypt is the Nile. To the people of India, the Gangs is great, but it is also important for transportation; Ships can travel along it for a thousand miles. Other great rivers are the Congo in Africa and the Mekong in southeast Asia. The greatest of all for navigation (航海), however, is the Amazon in Brazil. It is so wide and so deep that large ships can go about two thousand miles upon it.

Besides transportation, rivers give food, water to drink, water for crops(庄稼), and chances for fun and entertainment for the people who live along their banks. In order to increase(增加) the supply of crops, engineers sometimes build a dam (大坝) across a river and let a lake from behind the dam. Then people can use the water not only to irrigate (灌溉) their fields but also to make electricity for their homes and industries.

However, large cities and industries that are located upon rivers often make problems. As the cities grow in size and industries increase in number, the water in the rivers becomes polluted with chemicals(化学物质) and other materials. People are learning the importance, however, of doing more to keep their rivers clean if they want to enjoy the benefits (利益) of this natural resource.

1.The greatest river for navigation is ___________.
