五、微写作：Which type of pollution among the four is the biggest problem in your hometown? Why? (At least 3 - 5 sentences)

In my hometown, air pollution is the biggest environmental problem. A number of factories near the town always give out harmful smoke day and night. Besides, with more cars on the road, a large amount of exhaust gas is produced every day. This polluted air not only makes the sky grey but also makes many people have breathing problems. We really need to take action to improve the air quality.

写作时先明确家乡最严重的污染类型，此处以空气污染为例，可从工厂废气排放、机动车尾气增多等角度阐述原因，最后提及污染对人们健康的影响，运用本单元所学词汇与简单复合句，保证语句连贯，满足3-5句的要求。

六、阅读理解
Good afternoon, everyone! This is Rose Garden Middle School Radio. John Smith speaking, with something new to share with you today. We all know that thinking green is sometimes the most difficult thing to do, but not impossible! Bed ZED, a new eco-friendly village in the south of London, has done a great job of providing its villagers with a high level living while getting them to pay more attention to protecting the environment.
People in Bed ZED have done many things. They recycle their paper, plastic, glass and other daily things. They build many houses whose windows face south in order to get as much sunlight as possible. The rainwater is collected for use in the toilets. Also, the people there travel to work in shared cars or use public transportation if they don’t live close.
Now, you may think it’s not easy to live such a life, but let me tell you, it’s not! It’s a way of life! We just have to say no to what is bad for the environment, and begin working on ideas to protect it. Life would be much more pleasant if villages like Bed ZED existed (存在) all over the world! Thank you for listening!
