（ 24-25 八 年 級 下 ·全 國 ·課 后 作 業 ） Sweden’s programme of producing energy from rubbish is so
successful, but its success has also produced a surprising problem: there is simply not enough rubbish in this
country. It has been reported that only 1% of their rubbish goes into landfills (垃圾填埋場) and the remaining 99%
is reused or recycled. Their waste-to-energy factories are able to deal with more than 2 million tons of rubbish
every year. And this situation has made Sweden face the serious and special problem mentioned above.
Sweden has imported (進口) much waste every year from other countries, such as Norway, the UK and
Italy. These countries depend heavily on landfills. In the United States, only about 35% of rubbish was recycled.
As a result, more than half of their waste ends up (最終處于) in landfills.
Sweden is now paid by Norway to take its waste away. Sweden not only gets paid by other countries but
also changes the waste into energy in Sweden, which provides electricity and heating for so many homes. It’s a
win-win situation. Clever!
Sweden is leading the way in waste management, but it is one of few. Most countries’ technology in
dealing with waste needs improving. Sweden’s waste management offers a look into the future where countries
can make money from their rubbish and not just put it in the sea or put it in landfills.

3．How does America deal with most of its waste

（24-25 八年級下·廣西南寧·開學考試）From September to February each year, Dazhong Mountain in
Chuxiong, Yunnan is home to more than 50,000,000 migratory birds (候鳥). People used to call the mountain
Daqueshan, which means bird-hunting (獵鳥) mountain.
The villagers used to hunt birds on the mountain. Then one year, they couldn’t hear birds singing. People
started to worry if migratory birds would return again. In 1984, the Hongtupo Forest Police Station was set up.
The officers worked on the mountain, trying to find migratory birds and stop people from hunting them. The job
was really difficult. They might lose their way or meet dangerous animals.
The officers also tried to tell villagers the importance of protecting birds and other wild animals. They
visited the villagers door to door and helped them with farm work. They even organized (組織 ) activities in
schools to get their messages across to children. Now, even children know that they should love birds.
The mountain gets greener and becomes a bird-protecting mountain. Many people have opened
bed-and-breakfasts (民宿) for birdwatchers.
“The village has changed a lot, and we don’t hunt birds anymore.” people say. Since people have stopped
hunting, the police station now mainly works to save injured (受傷的) wildlife.

In Hebei, there is a small village called Yeli. Through the village, you can see green trees along the
riverbank. However, you can hardly imagine that, about 16 years ago, this area was covered with rocks and weeds
(雜草). The big change is all because of years of hard work by two best friends: Jia Haixia, who is blind, and Jia
Wenqi, who has no arms. The two friends decided to plant trees to make a living back in 2002. Although both are
disabled, they learned to work together by becoming each other’s eyes and hands. With little money to buy young
trees, they had to collect and plant cuttings (插枝，插條). Every morning, they went to the riverbank together. Jia
Wenqi walked in the front and Jia Haixia followed him by holding one of his friends empty sleeves (衣袖). After
they arrived at the riverbank, Jia Haixia would climb on his friend’s shoulders to get cuttings and Jia Wenqi would
tell him which cuttings were the best. After that, they dug holes on the ground and watered the cuttings together.
They planted 800 trees in the first year, but only two of them survived (存活). They didn’t give up. Instead,
they continued to plant more in the next few years. The riverbank is now home to over ten thousand trees.
Today, the two friends no longer need to make a living by planting trees, but they have no plans to stop.
They aim to plant as many trees as possible in the area so as to protect the village from flooding (洪水) and to
improve the local environment.
1．Where did the story take place
2．How did these two disabled men work together
3．How many trees are there along the riverbank nowadays

My father is quiet most of the time. There is one thing that gets him excited. Just say the word “garbage” to
him! Or I should say, he is very interested in dealing with (處理) the garbage problem.
Last year, my father decided to do something about all the wasted food we were throwing away. Each
family wastes a large amount of food yearly——nearly 0.25 ton. We usually throw away the unfinished rice,
dishes, and more.
However, there is something we can do with it. If we properly deal with food waste, it can be changed into
a kind of rich, dark earth known as compost. This compost can be added to vegetable gardens to make the plants
grow really well.
To deal with food waste in my family, my father came up with a good idea: Instead of throwing away all
our food waste, we put it into the compost bin (儲物箱). Mother Nature will slowly turn it from garbage into earth.
Three months later, we were surprised to find that it was full of rich compost material (材料)!
Next time you eat outside, just order what you need. Similarly, just make what you need at home when
cooking. This also helps to avoid wasting food. Do you have any other ideas Think about it.
1．What is the writer’s father really interested in
2．How much food waste does each family make yearly
3．What can food waste be changed into according to (根據) Paragraph 3

Here’s what Jessie Stevenson did last year on Earth Day. She got up at 7:30 and had her breakfast in a rush.
She left home for school at 8:00 but she didn’t go by bus like she used to. Instead, she rode her bicycle. It was a
beautiful day! On her way to school, she realized how peaceful her neighbourhood was. There were trees on both
sides of the street and a few miles down, there was a beautiful farmhouse. Through the gates, she could see a
breathtaking landscape (令人贊嘆的景色) with a large green field where some animals stood. She had lived there
for years but it seemed she was looking at all that for the very first time.
At school, she attended a meeting with the rest of her class about eco-issues (環保議題), such as pollution
and global warming. She felt angry when she realized that little was being done to protect the environment and a
lot to destroy it. After the meeting, they all wrote to the government claiming (要求) strong actions to protect
nature.
When Jessie got back home, she felt like a different person. She advised her parents, Ava and John, to help
her clean up all the litter in their neighbourhood and then to plant trees in an empty field nearby. From that day on,
Jessie and her parents have been fighting to protect the environment, recycling products as far as they can and
teaching people how to be a friend of nature. They even became known in the neighbourhood as “the green
neighbours”.

（23-24 八年級下·黑龍江哈爾濱·期中）In America and Canada, a new activity known as “zero waste” is
becoming popular. It is carried out in schools, cafes, gyms, parks, restaurants and other places. “Zero waste”
activity calls on people to make less trash (垃圾). It asks people to reduce (減少) things we use. People now are
using more than they need.
According to a new report, American people produce the largest amount of trash in the world. Each person
produces about 4.6 pounds of trash each day. More than half of the trash is put into landfills (填埋場) and then
burned (焚燒). In fact, this is bad for the environment because it produces waste gas (氣) and pollutes water.
“Nobody wants to have a landfill near his house,” said Jon D． Johnston, an expert from the Environmental
Protection Organization.
More landfills are needed to help to carry out “zero waste” activity. “There aren’t enough land-fills, so we
can ’t put all our trash into them. We should try to reduce and reuse as much as we can.”

What can we do to help protect the environment It seems useless to just pick up a piece of trash, 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 look me about 30 minutes to fill one garbage 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.

days, he had made great progress with his cleanup effort. Ile 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 30minutes, but it
really makes a difference and you will be amazed at how good you feel afterwards,” he said.

My father is quiet most of the time. There is one thing that gets him excited. Just say the word “garbage” to
him! Or I should say, he is very interested in dealing with (處理) the garbage problem.
Last year, my father decided to do something about all the wasted food we were throwing away. Each
family wastes a large amount of food yearly——nearly 0.25 ton. We usually throw away the unfinished rice,
dishes, and more.
However, there is something we can do with it. If we properly deal with food waste, it can be changed into
a kind of rich, dark earth known as compost. This compost can be added to vegetable gardens to make the plants
grow really well.
To deal with food waste in my family, my father came up with a good idea: Instead of throwing away all
our food waste, we put it into the compost bin (儲物箱). Mother Nature will slowly turn it from garbage into earth.
Three months later, we were surprised to find that it was full of rich compost material (材料)!
Next time you eat outside, just order what you need. Similarly, just make what you need at home when
cooking. This also helps to avoid wasting food. Do you have any other ideas Think about it.

nature.

her clean up all the litter in their neighbourhood and then to plant trees in an empty field nearby. From that day on,

（23-24 八年級下·黑龍江哈爾濱·期中）In America and Canada, a new activity known as “zero waste” is
becoming popular. It is carried out in schools, cafes, gyms, parks, restaurants and other places. “Zero waste”
activity calls on people to make less trash (垃圾). It asks people to reduce (減少) things we use. People now are
using more than they need.
