Starting a stamp collection is easy and not very expensive. Before you start, you need to decide what kind of stamps you want to collect. Most people collect stamps that they are interested in: a certain country or an animal, a famous person or even a sport. Whatever you choose, you will find that there is a world of knowledge in stamps: you will learn about people, geography, building, history and culture.

You can collect stamps from letters, ask your friends to let you have their old stamps, or you can buy used stamps. When you get a letter with a stamp on it, carefully cut out the stamp. Leave lots of space around the stamp so that you will not damage it. Put the stamp in water and wait until you can safely remove the stamp. Carefully remove the stamp off the letter. Place the wet stamp between two clean pieces of paper. A stamp can get wrinkled(褶皱的) when it dries, so put some books on top.

( ) 4. What does the writer think of collecting stamps?

A. Hard B. Expensive C. Useful D. Boring

( ) 5. What does the underlined work “damage” mean?

A.损坏 B.保存 C.利用 D.删除

( ) 6. What’s the correct order when we try to get a stamp on a letter?

Remove the stamp off the letter.

Place the wet stamp between two pieces of paper.

Cut out the stamp.

Put the stamp in water.

Put some books on top.

A.→→→→ B.→→→→

C.→→→→ D.→→→→

(C)

It’s important to learn about protecting our environment. Here is a 5R rule for us:

1. Reduce

If you want to reduce waste, you should use things wisely. Millions of trees are being cut down to make paper. If everyone uses a little paper carelessly and throw it out, soon we would not have any trees left. Other things are also being wasted, and people don’t know what to do with the waste in big cities. So it is necessary to reduce the waste.

2. Reuse

You should always think of reusing the usable things before throwing them out. Give your clothes you do not use or the ones which are too small to the poor. With a family, you may pass on such clothes to younger brothers or sisters.

3. Recycle

Bottles, cans and paper can easily be recycled. By doing so, we save lots of time and money. For example, coke cans are sent to a factory, where they are smashed flat(压平) and melted (融化) and the melted things are made into new coke cans.

4. Recover

When you buy a box of apples, there may be a few rotten (腐烂的) apples. You have two choices: one is to throw the whole apple away, or you could cut off the rotten parts and eat the good parts. In this way, you are recovering the eatable parts of food.

5. Repair

If one of the legs of your table is broken, you can repair it instead of throwing it away. If you want to change for better ones, it is better for you to sell the old things or give them to other people who can use them after doing some repair. It is true that North America is a “throw-away” society(社会). But the time has come to change our way of life so that we can protect our environment. Every one of us should try our best.

( ) 7. ___________ can be recycled.

A. Only hard things B. Many things

C. Few soft things D. All things

( ) 8. The “recover” rule mainly requires us ___________.

A. to throw waste things away B. to cover waste things with earth

C. to get back the useful parts D. to throw the whole things away

( ) 9. We can infer (推断) that the writer of this passage may live in _________.

A. China B. Japan C. Australia D. America

( ) 10. Which of the following is true?

A. We will have no resources (资源) of nature if we don’t do with the waste.

B. Recycling is the best way to save resources.

C. If we waste less, we can save more resources of nature.

D. More things are wasted in developed countries than in developing ones.
