Garbage(垃圾) Island
You can’t see it from the air. It’s almost impossible to see from a ship. But somewhere in the North Pacific is a huge island of garbage, just below the water surface.
What is the island made of?
The garbage island is not an island, but a collection of millions of plastic and other objects. The water movements of Pacific Ocean bring the objects together and cause them to go around in a big circle.
Charles Moore found it in 1997 and named it “the Great Pacific Garbage Patch” .
Where does all the plastic come from?
Much of the garbage comes from everyday objects, such as shopping bags and water bottles. Some of these objects finally reach the ocean. Garbage from the western coast of North America takes about six years to reach it. Objects from East Asia take about a year. Other garbage comes from ships passing through the area.
Is the Garbage Patch dangerous?
The larger pieces of garbage are a problem for wildlife. For example, sea turtles（海龟）and seabirds often think the plastic is their food. They eat the plastic and die.
In addition, the plastic stops sunlight from reaching deeper water. Without sunlight, very small sea animals die. Then, there is less food for larger fish to eat.
What can we do to help stop it?
Cleaning up the island isn’t easy. But we can make people realize the problem. One environmentalist(环保主义者), David de Rothschild, is sailing around the world in boat made of plastic bottles to teach people about the problem of garbage in the sea.
Another idea is that we can recycle the plastic garbage. Environmental engineer Cesar Harada is building a robot that collects pieces of plastic. Harada hopes to use his robot in the Pacific. Harada also has a website for reporting environmental problems. He says, “I hope everybody can become an environmental activist.”

The boy’s father had a meeting with the family doctor. “Could anything be done?” he asked the doctor.
“I believe I could graft (移植) a pair of outer ears, if you could get them,” the doctor said.
However, two years went by, but nobody wanted to offer the young man ears. Then one day the father said, “Son, someone will donate his ears to you. But it’s a secret.” The operation (手术) was a great success.
Time kept the secret, but the day did come… The young man stood with his father beside his mother’s body. Slowly, the father held out a hand and raised the thick, brown hair. To his surprise, the son found his mother had no outer ears.
“Mother said she was glad she never let her long hair be cut,” he said gently, “and nobody ever thought Mother less beautiful, did they?”
Real love lies not in ( lie…in 在于) what is done and known, but in what is
done but not known.

Shanghai started a new garbage-sorting (垃圾分类)program in July this year. People are always asking“which is the right bin(垃圾箱) for my garbage?" They need to put different kinds of garbage into different bins. Other cities in China will do the same soon.
Why is garbage sorting a big problem?
It's because there is too much garbage these days. It's bad for our soil, air and water. Actually, we can make use of some garbage again. And first, we need to sort our garbage. For example, if you put an battery(电池) into the“harmful waste(有害垃圾)”bin, people can use it to make new batteries. But if you don't, the battery will be somewhere else. It will be bad for the environment. Many people may not know how to sort it in a right way. China's tech companies are working hard to solve this problem. For example, if you want to know which bin your milk box should go in, you can just open a mini app(小程序) in WeChat or Ali pay and look for“wet wipes". The app will give you the answer right away. Maybe you can just take a photo of the garbage and then you will know which bin you should put it into.
The future of garbage-sorting looks good. But it's not the best way. The best thing we can do is to make less garbage in the first place.

Everyone can change the world
What can we do to help protect the environment? It seems useless to just pick up a piece of trash (垃圾), but what will happen if you keep doing it every day? Tommy Kleyn, an ordinary man from the Netherlands, may give you the answer.
Tommy Kleyn walked past a polluted river on his way to work every day. It used to be a beautiful view, but the trash on the bank made it dirty and smelly. So Tommy decided to pick up the trash along the river a little bit at a time after work. “It took me about 30 minutes to fill one garbage(垃圾) bag with trash, but one garbage bag didn't seem helpful in a place as polluted as this. I decided to fill one bag of trash each day as I passed by," Tommy said. Every day, Tommy took pictures of the river and shared them on his Facebook page. To his surprise, in just six days, he had made great progress with his cleanup effort(努力). He felt happy and kept doing it. Gradually, more and more people knew about Tommy's story. Other people in the community began following in his footsteps and cleaning up trash on their way home, too.
“The idea is to encourage people to fill one garbage bag with litter each day. It only takes 30 minutes, but it really makes a difference and you will be amazed at how good you feel afterwards," he said.
People from all over the world have been moved and inspired(激发) by Tommy's story. No effort is useless if we keep doing it every day. Ordinary people like you and me can also make a difference to the world we live in if we take actions right now.
1.Did Tommy Kleyn walk past a polluted river on his way to work every day?
2.What did Tommy decide to do after work?
3.Where did Tommy share the pictures of the river that he took?

阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容回答问题。
The sun is always shining. But it can only shine on one side of the earth at one time. When the sun is shining on one side of the earth, it is night on the other side. At night, you can see the stars. The stars are in the sky all day. But the light from the sun is so bright that you can’t see them. When night comes, there is no light, and the stars are bright enough to see. The stars look very small. But some of them are even bigger than the sun. They look small because they are so far away from you. Big things look much smaller when they are far away. The sun is closer to the earth than other stars, so it looks bigger.
1.Can the sun shine on only one side or two sides of the earth at one time?
2.Are the stars in the sky all day?
3.When are the stars bright enough to see?
4.How do big things look when they are far away?
5.Why does the sun look bigger than other stars?
