Can everything be recycled? N, nt all things can be recycled. But yu might be surprised t learn hw many things can be recycled. Yu may already knw abut plastic bttles. Did yu knw yu can als recycle glass?
Glass can be recycled t make all srts f things. Recycling glass really helps the planet. Making new prducts frm recycled glass causes less air and water pllutin. It als uses less energy than making new glass.
When glass arrives at a recycling plant, peple and machines srt it by clr. Similar clrs f glass must be recycled tgether. That way, recycled prducts are as pure as pssible. This makes them strnger and less likely t break. Once the glass is srted, it's washed. That's when the breaking begins. That's right! T be recycled, glass has t be brken t make a material called cullet(碎玻璃).
Glass manufacturers lve cullet. It's cheaper than the raw materials they'd need t make new glass. It als melts at a lwer temperature. That means they save energy during the prductin prcess. Glass manufacturers mix cullet with ther materials like sand and sda ash. Then they heat it t ver 2,600℉. This makes liquid glass, which can then be pured int a mld (模具). There, it cls and frms a finished glass prduct.
Mst recycled glass is used t make new glass cntainers, such as jars and bttles. Hwever, recycled glass can als find its way int all srts f ther prducts including a variety f cnstructin prducts.
D yu recycle at hme r schl? What glass prducts shuld yu be sure t recycle when yu’ re dne with them? With everyne ding their part, recycling glass can make a huge difference t the planet!
24. What is the first step in recycling glass?
A. Srting it accrding t clr.B. Cleaning it with water.
C. Remving the clr in it.D. Breaking it int cullet.
25. Why d glass manufacturers lve cullet?
A. It is easy t get.B. It helps cut csts.
C. It can be easily brken.D. It can be mixed with ther materials.
26. Why des the authr ask the questins in the last paragraph?

Ada Lvelace was brn n December 10th 1815. Ada’s mther and father (the famus pet Lrd Gerge Grdn Byrn) parted just weeks after she was brn. Her mther feared her grwing up with her father’s changeable nature. T stp this frm happening, Ada was frced by her mther t learn science and mathematics which was unusual fr wmen at the time. She was als punished if her wrk was nt up t standard. Hwever, she was greatly interested in mathematics and science and wuld perhaps have learned abut them n her wn.
Ada was partially disabled and as a result spent much time studying. Ada knew f her mther’s thught abut keeping the creative side f her frm germinating (萌芽) hwever, as Ada herself is knwn t have said, “If yu can’t give me petry at least give me petical science.” Ada married at 19, t William King wh was made Earl f Lvelace in 1838, at which pint she became Lady Ada King, the Cuntess f Lvelace, but was knwn as Ada Lvelace. Ada and King had a relatively happy marriage, with King even encuraging his wife’s lve fr numbers.
During her yuth Ada was intrduced t the Sct, Mary Smerville, wh was knwn as the “Queen f 19th Century Science” and was the first wman t be accepted int the Ryal Astrnmical Sciety. It was thrugh Mary Smerville that Ada first heard f Charles Babbage’s idea fr a new calculating (计算) engine. Attracted by this idea, Ada began a perid f letter-writing with him that wuld cme t decide her prfessinal life.
Ada met Babbage when she was arund 17 and the tw became clse friends. Babbage was wrking n an “Analytical Engine”, smething he was designing t deal with cmplex ( 复杂的) calculatins. Ada was later asked t translate an article. She nt nly translated the article but added pages and pages f ntes, calculatins and innvatins (创新). Her ntes were published in 1843 and it turned ut that what she had written was s riginal, it is nw seen as the first cmprehensive cmment n what wuld becme mdern-day cmputer prgramming. Althugh impressive, Ada was nt actually given credit fr the article until 1848.
28. What happened t Ada in her childhd?
A. She was pushed t learn scientific knwledge.
B. She had t cmpare herself with ther wmen.
C. She gave up learning because f her father’s nature.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了女科学家阿达·洛芙莱斯的主要事迹，展现了她对科学知识的热爱。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“T stp this frm happening, Ada was frced by her mther t learn science and mathematics which was unusual fr wmen at the time. (为了阻止这种情况的发生，艾达的母亲强迫她学习科学和数学，这在当时的女性中并不常见。)”可知，阿达的母亲强迫她学习科学知识。故选A。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“Ada’s mther and father (the famus pet Lrd Gerge Grdn Byrn) parted just weeks after she was brn. Her mther feared her grwing up with her father’s changeable nature. T stp this frm happening, Ada was frced by her mther t learn science and mathematics which was unusual fr wmen at the time.(艾达的母亲和父亲(著名诗人乔治·戈登·拜伦勋爵)在她出生几周后就分手了。她的母亲担心她在父亲喜怒无常的性格下长大。为了阻止这种情况的发生，艾达的母亲强迫她学习科学和数学，这在当时的女性中并不常见。)”可知，阿达的父亲是英国诗人拜伦。她的父母分开之后，她的母亲不愿阿达继承拜伦身上感性、多变的特质，于是她强迫阿达学习数学和科学，并对她严格要求。对于母亲的想法，阿达了然于心。划线处与上文中的“keeping the creative side f her frm germinating(让她的创造力无法萌发)”为顺承关系，目的是为了引出阿达说的话“如果不让我学习诗歌，那么至少让我学习富有诗意的科学”。结合上文中提到的阿达对数学表现出了浓厚的兴趣，我们可以推断，阿达将 petry和science进行比较，说明她认为科学如诗歌般具有创造性。故选B。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Attracted by this idea, Ada began a perid f letter-writing with him that wuld cme t decide her prfessinal life.(被这个想法吸引，阿达开始和他一起写信，后来决定了她的职业生涯。)”可知，阿达与查尔斯·巴贝奇针对科学知识展开的交流一定程度上决定了阿达以后的职业生涯。故选D。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“She nt nly translated the article but added pages and pages f ntes, calculatins and innvatins (创新).(她不仅翻译了这篇文章，还添加了一页又一页的注释、计算和创新。)”可知，她不仅翻译了学术文章，并加注了很多自己原创的见解。故选C。

A Beijing-based gene firm n Mnday annunced the debut (首次亮相) f the wrld’s first, clned wild article wlf via vide. 100 days after its birth in a Beijing lab. Experts said its birth pineers the breeding f mre rare and endangered animals thrugh clning technlgy.
“T save the endangered animal, we started the research cperatin with Harbin Plarland n clning the arctic wlf in 2020. After tw years f painstaking effrts, the arctic wlf was clned successfully. It is the first case f its kind in the wrld,” Mi Jidng, the cmpany’s general manager f the Beijing-based Singene Bitechnlgy C., said at a press cnference in Beijing.
Brn n June 10, the wlf, named Maya, is in very gd health. Its dnr cell came frm the skin sample f a wild female arctic wlf, which had been intrduced frm Canada t Harbin Plarland. The clning f the arctic wlf was accmplished by cnstructing 137 new embrys (胚胎), fllwed by the transfer f 85 embrys t the uteri f seven dgs, f which ne was brn as a healthy wlf-Maya, Zha nted. The selectin f a dg as Maya’s surrgate (代孕) was made because dgs share genetic ancestry with ancient wlves and it’s mre likely t succeed thrugh clning technlgy, experts said.
He Zhengming, the head f Chinese Experimental Animal Resurces Research Institute fr Fd and Drug Cntrl, said that the clned animals still have the ability t reprduce if they have intact fertilized eggs. The clning technlgy can cpy all genetic infrmatin fr selective breeding, and in this way, it diversifies the ppulatin f endangered animals.
Frm the wrld’s first mammal clne “Dlly”, clning technlgy has prvided the pssibility t diversify the ppulatins f sme species such as cattle, pigs and hrses. When endangered species in sme places are identified, clning f cells preserved frm freezing technlgies culd als generate new life, experts said.
Hwever, sme raised cntrversy relating t the clned arctic wlf. Sun Ouanhui, a scientist frm the Wrld Animal Prtectin rganizatin, insisted that clning technlgy has made great prgress since its birth, but it is still being perfected and in the explratry stage f research, and there are many technical and ethical issues that need t be tackled and treated with cautin.
32. What is the significance f the first clned wild arctic wlf’s birth?
A. T prduce mre endangered species thrugh clning.
B. T help the scientists win an award.
C. T prmte the research cperatin.
D. T increase the prfit f wildlife reserves.
33. What can be inferred frm Paragraph 3?
A. Maya is the first clned arctic wlf in the wrld.
B. Wild arctic wlves are easily available in Harbin Plarland.
C. There is n scientific supprt fr chsing a dg as Maya’s surrgate.
D. Researchers experienced trial and errr t achieve the successful birth f Maya.
34. What’s the authr’s attitude tward clning technlgy?
A. Dubtful.B. Favrable.C. Objective.D. Oppsed.
35. Which is the best title f the passage?
A. The Research n the Rare and Endangered Animals
B. The Debut f the Wrld’s 1st Clned Wild Arctic Wlf
C. The Beginning f the Clning Technlgy Applicatin
D. The Cnservatin f Endangered Wildlife thrugh Clning Technlgy

推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“Experts said its birth pineers the breeding f mre rare and endangered animals thrugh clning technlgy. (专家表示，它的诞生开创了通过克隆技术培育更多珍稀濒危动物的先河。)”可知，该北极狼克隆的成功为培育更多珍稀濒危动物开创先河，因此其重要意义也在于此。故选A项。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段二三句“The clning f the arctic wlf was accmplished by cnstructing 137 new embrys (胚胎), fllwed by the transfer f 85 embrys t the uteri f seven dgs, f which ne was brn as a healthy wlf-Maya, Zha nted. (赵指出，北极狼的克隆是通过构建137个新胚胎完成的，随后将85个胚胎移植到7只狗的子宫中，其中一只出生时是健康的狼——玛雅。)”可以看出该克隆过程很艰辛，85个胚胎才产出一只健康的狼，即成功前科学家经历了实验和失败。故选D项。
【34题详解】

【解析】
【分析】
本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在过生日的那天要选择一个同学作“生日助手”，作者有两个最好的朋友，她不知道选哪一个，因为她知道选了一个那另外一个就会非常生气。作者的一个同学丽萨被全班同学嫌弃，只有作者对她友好，所以丽萨说作者是她最好的朋友，但是事实上作者心里也很不喜欢她。在最后要选择“生日助手”的时候，丽萨很受伤地说自己从来没有被选中过，于是作者选择了她。丽萨非常开心，即使作者的两个最好的朋友很生气，但是作者依然因为自己做了正确的事情而高兴。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“突然间，我明白了自己的决定。”可知，第一段可描写作者决定选择丽萨作为“生日助手”，丽萨和作者的两个最好的朋友的反应。
②由第二段首句内容“就在我放学后冲出去赶公共汽车时，丽莎拦住了我。”可知，第二段可描写丽萨对作者表示了感谢，作者觉得很高兴。
