China has decided to take actions to stop the use of free plastic bags. Supermarkets and shops in China aren’t allowed to offer free plastic bags.
Every year, people use too many plastic bags and fail to deal with them in a right way. While we offer quick and useful service to customers, the plastic bags cause serious pollution as well. For example, people will throw away plastic bags after they use them. The waste plastic bags may fly with the wind and make the environment ugly. Worse still, animals may eat them by mistake and die. Besides, It’s difficult to find new land to put the waste plastic bags in, so plastic bags are burned. The burning plastic bags give out harmful gas.
So the government encourages people to go back to carry cloth bags and use baskets for their shopping things.

American and British people both speak English of course. But sometimes it does not seem like the same language. In fact, there are some important differences between British English and American English.
First of all, they sound very different. Often, Americans don’t say each word separately. They say several words together. Americans may say “I dunno” instead of “I don’t know”. Or they may say “Whaddya say?” instead of “What did you say?” however, the British are more careful in their speech. They usually say all the words and keep them separate.
Words sometimes have different meanings too. Some American words are never used in England. The same thing is true of some British words in America. For example, the vocabulary（词汇）for cars and driving is very different. Americans drive trucks, but in England people drive lorries.
Many expressions are also different in the two countries. In England, if you are going to telephone your friends, you “phone them up”. In America, you “give them a call”.
There’re also some differences in grammar. For example, when Americans ask a question., they say “Do you have a storybook?” But the British often say “Have you a storybook?”
All these differences can be confusing （易混淆的）if you are learning English. But most languages are like this. Languages change over time. When people live in separate places, the languages change in different ways. This is what has happened to English. It can also happen to other languages, such as French. Many people in Canada speak French but their French is very different from the French of France.

It was a village in India. The people were poor but they were happy. After all, their forefathers had lived in the same way for centuries.
Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frog. However, they did not have enough frogs of their own, and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.
This seemed like money for nothing. There were millions of frogs in the fields around, and they were useless to the villagers. What they had to do was to catch them. Agreement was reached, and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. The villagers were able to dream of a better future. But the dream didn’t last long.
The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops weren’t doing so well. More worry was that the children fell ill more often, and there were more insects around lately. The villagers decided that they couldn’t just wait to see the crops failing and the children getting weak. They would have to use the money earned to buy pesticides (***剂) and medicine. Soon there was no money left.
The people realized what was happening. It was the frog. They hadn’t been useless. They had been doing an important job--- eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed, the insects were increasing more rapidly. They were damaging the crops and spreading diseases.
Now, the people are still poor. But in the evenings they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs. These sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning.

根据短文内容，判断下列句子的正误，正确的用“T”，错误的用“F”。（每小题1分，共5分）

There are many wetlands (湿地) in China and some of them have become the world"s important wetlands.
The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are among them. They are in Yancheng, Jiangsu Province. They are home for many different kinds of birds and animals. The world"s largest Milu Deer Nature Reserve (自然保护区) is in them. More than 700 Milu deer live freely there. There are not many red-Crowned cranes in the world, but every winter you can see some in the red-Crowned Nature Reserve in the Yellow Sea Wetlands.
The temperature in the wetlands is usually neither too high nor too low. There is a lot of rain and sunshine, too. They are really good places for wildlife (野生动物). Offering food and home for some special kinds of animals and birds is not the only reason why we need to protect wetlands. Wetlands are important because they also prevent flood. But some people want to change the wetlands to make more space for farms and buildings. This means there will be less and less space for wildlife.
Luckily, more and more people are beginning to realize the importance of wetlands and wildlife. Every year, on February 2nd, many activities are held to tell people more about wetlands.
小题1:The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are in the west of China.
小题2:Usually the weather in the wetlands is pleasant.
小题3:February 2nd is the world"s wetlands Day.
小题4:We must protect wetlands only because they can offer food to the animals and birds.
小题5:Wetlands are valuable resources of land on the earth.
