We had several babysitters (临时保姆) as my parents had to work long hours. The only time we could be together was the weekend, and that was my happiest time. However, every Sunday morning was torture because we had to leave our beautiful holiday house then.
Last year my dad sold our big house near London and my parents gave up their jobs. They bought a smaller car. We are now living in our holiday house—two adults, three kids and a dog. My parents got jobs that allow them to work at home. We never have babysitters then.

“Green mountains and clear waters are as good as mountains of gold and silver”. To make our water clearer and our mountains greener, we should start doing garbage classification(垃圾分类).
There are four kinds of wastes: the hazardous（有害的）, the recyclable（可回收的）, the dry and the wet. The used books and notebooks should be put into the recyclable garbage bins, the batteries should be put into the hazardous garbage bins, the dry leaves should be put into the dry garbage bins and the leftovers（剩饭菜）should be put into the wet garbage bins.
The other day, I found a lady in my neighborhood. She put all the garbage into one garbage bin. She was not doing the garbage classification. When I went to tell her to do it, she looked confused（迷惑的）. I realized she knew little about garbage classification. It’s not hard to imagine things like this happen a lot every day.
There is a question coming to my mind—Are we doing enough to let people realize the right way to classify the garbage It seems many people need education on that. We can start to help children know the right thing to do with garbage. As students, we can set up a volunteer team in the garbage station to help those uncles and aunts to put the garbage in the right bin. We can also let them know the benefits of doing this.
If we keep on doing this, our environment will get better. We can see more green mountains and clear waters around us in the near future.

C. There is still a lot to do about garbage classification.
35. What can we learn from the passage

15 years ago, my parents bought a small house in the countryside, which they used for holidays. After I was born, they started to go to the holiday house more. We used to drive 3 hours to get to our lovely house every Friday evening.
During the week my parents worked in London. My two brothers and I went to expensive private schools and we were all very busy. We hardly saw each other. We had several babysitters (临时保姆) as my parents had to work long hours. The only time we could be together was the weekend, and that was my happiest time. However, every Sunday morning was torture because we had to leave our beautiful holiday house then.
Last year my dad sold our big house near London and my parents gave up their jobs. They bought a smaller car. We are now living in our holiday house—two adults, three kids and a dog. My parents got jobs that allow them to work at home. We never have babysitters then.
The best change for me is that now I go with my brothers to a small local school. My life is just so different. We feel calm and happy. I am so glad that we have changed our way of life.
26. The writer’s family used to go to the holiday house ________.
A. by bus B. by bike C. by car

“Green mountains and clear waters are as good as mountains of gold and silver”. To make our water clearer and our mountains greener, we should start doing garbage classification(垃圾分类).
There are four kinds of wastes: the hazardous（有害的）, the recyclable（可回收的）, the dry and the wet. The used books and notebooks should be put into the recyclable garbage bins, the batteries should be put into the hazardous garbage bins, the dry leaves should be put into the dry garbage bins and the leftovers（剩饭菜）should be put into the wet garbage bins.
The other day, I found a lady in my neighborhood. She put all the garbage into one garbage bin. She was not doing the garbage classification. When I went to tell her to do it, she looked confused（迷惑的）. I realized she knew little about garbage classification. It’s not hard to imagine things like this happen a lot every day.
There is a question coming to my mind—Are we doing enough to let people realize the right way to classify the garbage It seems many people need education on that. We can start to help children know the right thing to do with garbage. As students, we can set up a volunteer team in the garbage station to help those uncles and aunts to put the garbage in the right bin. We can also let them know the benefits of doing this.
If we keep on doing this our environment will get better. We can see more green mountains and clear waters around us in the near future.
31. How many kinds of wastes are mentioned in the passage
A. 4. B. 5. C. 6.
32. Where should we put the leftovers
A. In the hazardous garbage bins. B. In the dry garbage bins. C. In the wet garbage bins.
33. Which of following is TRUE according to the 3rd paragraph
A. The lady has learned a lot about garbage classification.
B. The writer told the lady to do the right thing.
C. The writer laughed at the lady.
34. What is the main idea of the Paragraph 4
A. People have got enough education on garbage classification.
B. Students don’t know much about garbage classification.
C. There is still a lot to do about garbage classification.
35. What can we learn from the passage
A. Garbage classification helps us see more green mountains and clear waters.
B. Garbage classification can make mountains of gold and silver.
C. Garbage classification is too hard to do it in our daily life.
