People can clear the information away on the light-printable paper by heating it to 120and it can be reused more than 80 times.The research was carried out in order to reduce the effects of paper production on deforestation (滥砍滥伐). The researchers, from Shandong University in China and the University of California, Riverside, said that the secret behind the technology is a color-changing chemical. A thin coating of the chemical can be used on usual paper and turn it into a reusable, light-printable one. Heating the paper for 10 minutes can help clear the information away more quickly.Professor Yadong Yin, a chemistry professor at the University of California and a co-author of the study, said, The greatest importance of our work is the development of a new technology to produce an ink-free rewritable paper that has the same feel and appearance as usual paper. Our work is believed to have great economic and environmental influences on the modem society. Paper production has a bad influence on the environment. Its the main cause of industrial pollution and paper thrown away by people makes up about 40% of landfills where waste is buried under the ground.It is predicted that light-printable paper will be inexpensive in the future. The printing process is also more cost-effective than the usual one as no ink is needed. Most importantly, it can be reused many times, which greatly reduces the cost.（1）Why did researchers do the research? A . To make more money by selling the paper.B . To save more ink and more money.C . To make people interested in writing on the paper.D . To stop people from cutting down more trees.（2）What does the underlined word it refer to? A . Usual paper.B . The chemical.C . The technology.D . Ink.（3）What cant we know from Paragraph 3? A . The rewritable paper looks the same as the usual paper.B . Wasted papa: is the most serious pollution.C . The research will make a difference to our economic development.D . Our environment will be influenced by the rewritable paper.（4）What are the advantages of the rewritable paper?a. It can be recycled many times.b. It can help save money.c. It is environmentally-friendly.d. It will help save time.A . abcB . bedC . acdD . abd23. （10分）阅读理解 Robots are playing an important role in our life. They help us a lot.In factories, robots can help people do lots of work.

Most of them cover huge areas of land where nobody lives. However, the National Parks in England include places where people live and work, as well as wild areas where there are few human activities.The National Parks in England are called “Englands Breathing Spaces” because they are places where people can go to be in the open air, away from the dirt and noise of cities. They provide wonderful scenes of mountains, woods, grasslands and wetlands. And there are plenty of activities to do in all of the National Parks in England. Visitors can walk or ride bikes for fun. Many of the parks put on activities for families.Every year there are about 110 million visitors to the parks, bringing many benefits(益处) to the areas. At the same time, it creates problems too. First, life can be difficult for local people. Car parks and roads are too crowded. Gift shops and cafes take the place of many everyday shops. Even house prices in some areas can become too high. Besides, country roads can be damaged, for too many people walk, cycle or ride horses on them. Roads can be rebuilt, but then they look less natural. Another big problem to the National Parks is litter. In the parks it is a danger to wild animals. Broken glass can also cause fires by focusing the rays of the sun. Such fires in wild places can be out of control. ? All National Parks in England are making more rules, which tell people how to take good care of their environment. If these rules are followed, the National Parks will be well kept and continue to give pleasure to many people for a very long time.（1）Visitors to the National Parks in England can .A . give food to wild animalsB . drive cars on the grasslandsC . enjoy fresh air and peaceful timeD . have fun farming with local people（2）The third paragraph mainly tells us .A . the problems of the National ParksB . the pollution caused by visitorsC . the development of the National ParksD . the benefits brought by visitors（3）Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank in Paragraph 4?A . What can people getB . How can people helpC . What are the National Parks likeD . How are the National Parks set up（4）The passage is probably taken from the part of a magazine .A . transportB . wildlifeC . historyD . geography25. （5分）阅读短文，按要求完成短文后的各项任务。Smog is a big problem in many Chinese cities.
