Normal plastic is made from chemical materials and takes a very long time to degrade(降解). But bioplastic is good for the environment. It is made by using bacteria(细菌) to process(加工) natural sources like vegetable oils, corn or sugar. It can degrade more easily.But there is a problem with bioplastic. The food that bacteria eat is what we eat. This means that bacteria are competing against humans for the same resources.Now scientists have found a new way to make bioplasticusing two kinds of bacteria and sunlight, according to Newsweek.One of the bacteria can use sunlight to produce sugar. The other kind lives in the salty waters of Bolivia. It eats the sugar that the first bacteria produce and then it can produce polymers(聚合物). Polymers are used to create bioplastics. The way the bacteria store polymers is similar as humans store fats.The new way to produce bioplastic has many advantages. It is 20 times faster than the normal way we produce bioplastic. Moreover, using these two bacteria saves resources.Firstly, producing a lot of bioplastic requires corn and sugar, which are used to feed normal bacteria. And growing corn and sugar needs farmland. But these two bacteria can just use sunlight. The land that is saved can be used to grow food for humans. Besides, this system doesnt need rich land or clean water at all, scientists said to Newsweek.The next problem scientists face is that they want to put their lab research into real-world practice. By doing this, bioplastic made with these two bacteria can be widely produced in the future.（1） The bioplastic is good for .A . animalsB . environmentC . bacteriaD . sunlight（2） The food in paragraph 2 refers to .A . natural sourcesB . normal plasticC . salty watersD . normal bacteria（3） From the passage, the correct order to make bioplastic is . a. eating the sugar b. creating bioplasticsc. producing polymers d. using sunlight to produce sugarA . a-d-c-bB . a-d-b-cC . d-c-a-bD . d-a-c-b（4） The new way to produce bioplastic has the advantages EXCEPT that .A . it is 20 times faster than the normal wayB . it only needs two kinds of bacteria and sunlightC . it doesnt need rich land or clean water at allD . it has already been widely and easily used（5） The passage mainly tells us .A . producing a lot of bioplastic requires corn and sugarB . bioplastic store polymers as humans store fatsC . scientists develop a new way to produce bioplasticD . the ways of producing two kinds of bacteria18. （8分） (2019九上龙岗期末) 阅读理解 Studies have shown that a good nights rest helps us stay healthy. Researchers say sleep is probably the best tool we have for memory and learning. Getting a good nights sleep is important for the learning and memory process. Its important because it stores (储存) the training and learning exercises into our memory forever while were sleeping 7-8 hours in bed. And then the next morning when we wake up our mind is better prepared to act on that information, Twery, an expert on the science of sleep and sleep disorders (失眠) said. But what about getting rest during the middle of the day? Past studies have shown that napping can help babies and young children learn better. In fact, napping can help older adults with their brain performance and may also help this group of people fight off age-related (年龄相关) memory loss.The researchers studied 3,000 people and found that those who took an hour-long nap did much better on mental (智力的) tests. The hour-long nappers also did better on the tests than those who napped for shorter and longer periods. But researchers note that these findings are for those over 65, and for young, healthy adults, an hour-long nap may be too long. At present, were suggesting that we try to nap for about 30 minutes or less. 30 minutes is enough to remove (消除) the pressure and will help us feel more awake. If we nap longer, we will get trapped into (陷入) the deep sleep, which can be hard to get out of, Twery said. This feeling is called sleep inertia the period when you awake from a very deep sleep. For a time, you are unable to think clearly.（1） From Paragraph 1, a good nights sleep _.

The deeper you sleep, the longer youll sleep.（4） What is the passage mainly about? A . How does napping influence peoples health?B . Napping may improve learning and memory.C . The importance of having a good nights sleep.D . How long should people take a nap during the day?19. （8分） 阅读理解 To protect the environment, we are on the way.

Most Asians immigrate because they believe that they can give their children a better education in the west. In Asia, especially in China, Japan and Korea, it is difficult to go to university. Students must first pass the strict national examination. However, in Canada and the United States, it is easy to go to university, and anyone who wants to go can go. As a result, Asian parents decide to leave their countries so that their children can go to university.The problem is that when Asians arrive, they discover that finding a job and making money are more difficult in the west. So these children become satellite kids, and most of their parents do not know how sad it is to be a satellite kid.Only until now are Canadians and Americans discovering the satellite kids problem. Because these children do not speak English and because their parents are not there to take care of them, they are often absent from school. To be a satellite kid means growing up in such a country, where you know you are different and you cant make friends because you do not speak English well. Also, it means growing up alone, because your parents are not there.（1） Satellite kids refer to （指代） the Asian kids . A . without parentsB . living abroad aloneC . with university educationD . not speaking English（2） Some Asian immigrant children become satellite kids because their parents .
