The decisin didn’t mean leaving her psitin, but rather limiting her wrk t her cntract (合约) hurs. Nthing mre, nthing less. “If I didn’t quiet quit my teaching jb, I wuld burn ut,” she says.
Like Perkins, “quiet quitters” n Tik Tk defend their chice t take a step back frm wrk, but cmpany managers and wrkplace experts argue that althugh ding less might feel gd in the shrt term, it culd harm yur career—and yur cmpany—in the lng run.
In the wake f the glbal pandemic and the Great Resignatin, emplyees began t reimagine what wrk culd lk like. Gallup’s State f the Glbal Wrkplace reprt in June fund jb dissatisfactin at an all-time high, with 60% reprting emtinal detachment (分离) frm wrk. Disengaged wrkers cst the glbal ecnmy an estimated $7.8 trillin in lst prductivity and an ecnmic slwdwn.
Nw, cmpanies have becme sensitive t wrker burnut. Gerg Vari, CEO f jb bard platfrm Lensa, advcates an alternative t quiet quitting: “ludly persisting”. That is, empwering emplyees t speak up abut hw their rganizatin can serve their gals. “When yu ludly persist, yu have a sense f belnging t the cmpany,” he says.
Career cach Allisn Peck says she views “quiet quitting” as a symptm f emplyees nt cnnecting t their wrk r managers. Her career advice fr quiet quitters is t take even braver actin. “Finding a new jb, team, r cmpany that better suit yu can imprve yur mindset at wrk,” she says.
Sme wrkers, thugh, say that cmpanies’ cncerns abut “quiet quitting” are unfunded. Shini K, a sftware develper, has set limits n her hurs and nw runs a small-scale vegetable farm in her spare time. “It’s negative and dangerus that we regard a healthy wrk-life balance as quitting,” says K. “Can we just call it what it is? It’s just wrking.”
1. What is paragraph 1 mainly abut?
A. An example f quiet quitters.B. An excuse fr quiet quitting.
C. The limitatin f cntract hurs.D. The wrking cnditins f teachers.
2. What’s the cnsequence f “quiet quitting” accrding t the reprt?
A. It cst the disengaged wrkers an estimated $7. 8 trillin.
B. It caused the glbal pandemic and the Great Resignatin.
C. It held ecnmy back and reduced wrkers’ prductivity.
D. It resulted in emplyees’ jb dissatisfactin in the lng run.
3. What can we infer frm Gerg Vari’s wrds?
A. Cmpanies dn’t have t wrry abut wrker burnut.
B. Cmpanies shuld persist ludly t serve wrkers’ gals.
C. Emplyees can ask fr a shrt break while feeling wrn ut.
D. Emplyees can vice their pinins n the cmpany’s management.
4. What is Shini K’s attitude twards cmpanies’ cncerns abut “quiet quitting”?
A. Unreasnable. B. Unfrgivable. C. Unexpected.D. Uncertain.

自然科学类C篇：
第一篇
Micrbilgists have designed a sustainable way t remve plluting micrplastics frm the envirnment by using bacteria. Initial design as it is, it paves the way fr sustainably lwering plastic pllutin levels and stp the “plastificatin”.
Bacteria naturally tend t grup tgether and stick t surfaces, and this creates a sticky material called “bifilm”. Researchers at the Hng Kng Plytechnic University (PlyU) want t use this adhesive bacteria character and capture micrplastics in plluted water t frm an easily dispsable and recyclable blb(团) .
Sylvia Lang Liu, micrbilgy researcher at PlyU and lead researcher n this prject, tgether with his team, has engineered a bacterial bifilm, which can fix and absrb micrplastics flating arund in the water, and make them sink t the bttm f the water. Then the researchers can separate the micrplastics frm the bacteria traps and get them ready t recycle.
Micrplastics are the plastic fragments, usually smaller than 5mm, which are accidentally released int the envirnment during prductin and breakdwn f grcery bags r water bttles, r during everyday activities such as washing synthetic (合成的) clthes r using persnal care prducts with scrubbing micrbeads in them. Micrplastics are visually tiny, making it challenging t develp effective slutins t trap, cllect, and recycle them.
Micrplastics are nt easily bidegradable (生物降解的), s they stick arund fr lng and absrb and accumulate pisnus chemicals. They spread int wastewater and int the ceans, endangering marine animals and eventually threatening human health, Micrplastics had been fund in mre than 114 species living in the water and als salt, lettuce, apples, and mre in 2018 accrding t the Internatinal Maritime Organizatin.
“This is an innvative applicatin f bifilm engineering l0 address the plasti pllutin crisis,” said Dr Janna Sadler, researcher at University f Edinburgh, wh was nt invlved in this study. “One f the biggest challenges in dealing with micrplastics is capturing such small particles. Liu and c-wrkers have denmnstrated an elegant slutin t this prblem, which hlds great ptential t be further develped int a real-wrld wastewater treatment technlgy.”
1. Which f the fllwing best explains the underlined wrd “adhesive” in Paragraph 2?
A. Flating.B. Sticky.C. Diverse.D. Visual.
2. Why are micrplastics hard t capture?
A. They are visually t small.B. They are hard t bidegrade.
C. They cntinue t exist fr lng.D. They are pisnus chemicals.
3. What can be learned frm the last paragraph?
A. Small particles are essential t address water pllutin
B. Bifilm bas been widely used t settle plastic pllutin.
C. Sadler thinks little f the bifilm engineering applicatin.
D. Bifilm applicatin is prmising fr wastewater treatment.
4. What is the text mainly abut?
A. Micrplastic remval.B. Uses f bacteria.
C. Wastewater treatment.D. Plastic pllutin.

this creates a sticky material called “bifilm”（细菌自然倾向于聚集在一起并粘在表面上，这就产生了一种被
称为“生物膜”的粘性物质）可知，细菌会黏在表面上形成一种叫做生物膜的黏性物质，并且科学家们想利
用这种细菌特性。因此可推断出，adhesive 就是“有黏性的”。故选 B。
1.A 解析：根据第四段最后一句 “Micrplastics are visually tiny, making it challenging t develp effective
slutins t trap, cllect, and recycle them. ”（微塑料在视觉上非常微小，这使得开发有效的捕获、收集和回
收它们的解决方案具有挑战性）可知，微塑料很难收集回收是因为他们看起来很微小。故选 A。
3.D 解析：根据最后一段最后一句“ Liu and c-wrkers have demnstrated an elegant slutin t this prblem,
which hlds great ptential t be further develped int a real-wrld wastewater treatment technlgy.”（刘和同
事们展示了一种解决这个问题的优雅方案，该方案有很大的潜力被进一步发展成现实世界中的废水处理技
术）可知，生物学家们已经演示了一个处理微塑料的方法，这个方法很有潜力被研发成一项废水处理科技。
所以 D 项“生物膜工程在废水处理方面很有前景”正确。故答案选 D。
4.A 解析：根据本文第一段第一句“Micrbilgists have designed a sustainable way t remve plluting
micrplastics frm the envirnment by using bacteria.”（微生物学家设计了一种可持续的方法，利用细菌去除
环境中的污染微塑料） 可知，短文主要是讲述微生物学家设计出了一种方法移除环境中有污染性的微塑
料。因此本文的标题为“微塑料的移除”。故选A项。

“Dc, my wife’s breast cancer has cme back and spread t her bnes”. My friend’s eyes filled with tears when he spke thse chilling wrds. Like millins f ther cancer patients, his wife had been treated successfully. Cancer recurrence is never a gd sign, but it desn’t mean yu have t give up hpe. Over the past decade, pwerful new treatments have been develped t fight mst stubbrn cancers. Mst, hwever, are still being tested in s-called clinical trials, and getting yurself enrlled in ne takes sme ding.
Clinical trials are research studies n human patients t test the safety and effectiveness f new treatments. There are hundreds f clinical cancer trials under way, invlving thusands f patients. What mst peple dn’t realize is that the scientists wh cnduct these studies need test subjects almst as badly as the subjects need treatment, and that lately the scientists have been running shrt f willing participants. At a cnference n clinical trials held recently in Alexandria, Virginia, researchers trying t devise strategies fr signing up mre patients nted that ne f the reasns there has been s much prgress in treating pediatric(小儿科的)cancers in the US ver the past 20 years is that 60% f all children with cancer are enrlled in sme kind f trial. With adults, enrllment falls ff dramatically, t nly 2% t 3% f eligible patients.
Why is this? Partly it’s wing t patient miscnceptins. “Patients are cncerned if they enter a clinical trial that they may be part f the unlucky grup that gets the placeb r ‘dummy treatment’ and nt the real medicine,” says Dr. Bb Cmis, president f the Natinal Cancer Cperative Grups. They think the placeb grup get n treatment at all, when in act it gets whatever is cnsidered the best current standard f care.
Cst shuldn’t be a cnsideratin. Mst clinical trials are free t patients; sme even pay their subjects. Insurance cmpanies in the past have been reluctant t cver the nn-experimental part f the treatment, but they are starting t cme arund.
Nw it is true that research scientists dn’t always have the best bedside manner, and smetimes they unnecessarily keep patients in the dark. And the cnsent frms are ften s encrusted with medical jargn that sme patients jke.

(大多数人没有意识到的是，进行这些研究的科学家对测试对象的需求几乎就像研究对象对治疗的需求一样迫切，而且最近科学家们一直缺少愿意参与研究的人。最近在弗吉尼亚州亚历山德里亚举行的一场临床试验会议上，试图为更多患者注册制定策略的研究人员指出，过去20年美国儿科癌症治疗取得如此巨大进展的原因之一是，60%的癌症儿童都参加了某种类型的试验。对于成年人来说，注册人数急剧下降，只有2%到3%的符合条件的患者。)”可知，科学家在临床试验中缺乏癌症患者。故选B。
3.B 解析：根据划线词前半句“Patients are cncerned if they enter a clinical trial that they may be part f the unlucky grup that gets the placeb (患者担心，如果他们参加临床试验，他们可能是不幸的那一组，得到的是安慰剂)”和后半句“and nt the real medicine(而不是真正的药物)”可推断，患者担心得到是假治疗，即无害但无效的治疗。所以dummy为“假的”之意。故选B。
4.C 解析：根据第一段“Mst, hwever, are still being tested in s-called clinical trials, and getting yurself enrlled in ne takes sme ding. (然而，大多数疫苗仍在所谓的临床试验中进行测试，让自己参加一项试验需要一些努力。)”及全文可知，文章主要介绍了癌症大多数疫苗临床试验都正在进行中，尽管存在一些问题。故选C。

ChatGPT is a new AI system that sunds s human in cnversatins that it culd hst its wn radi prgrams. Reading between its instantly generated, perfectly grammatical lines, peple see different visins f the future. Withut dubt, ChatGPT is impressive.
Sme cmpare the emergence f ChatGPT t the impact f the iPhne, but that desn’t d it justice. ChatGPT, as well as the generative AI that will fllw and utsmart it, is mre disruptive. And yet, that desn’t necessarily mean the end f the wrld is upn us. On the cntrary, ChatGPT, I wuld argue, might serve t make us mre aware f ur irreplaceable human qualities.
Take the creative act, writing in particular, as an example. If yu want it t, the AI-pwered chatbt always prduces smething because it has the whle wrld f nline data t draw frm. But unlike us, it lacks the cnsciusness. Thinking is hard, critical thinking even harder, and ChatGPT isn’t gd at either. It just restates what has already been said; it is ne big recycling machine.
There is anther bvius limitatin f ChatGPT. Philspher Harry Frankfurt nce claimed: the difference between a bullshitter (胡说八道的人) and a liar is that the liar knws what the truth is but decides t take the ppsite directin; a bullshitter, hwever, has n regard fr the truth at all. The AI schlar Gary Marcus applies this distinctin t ChatGPT. He believes that we have reached a critical pint when “the price f bullshit reaches zer and peple wh want t spread misinfrmatin, either plitically r just t make a prfit, start ding that plentifully”. Unfrtunately, ChatGPT will reprduce misinfrmatin frm any f its input surces — it is nt an intelligent system that tries t balance r weight different perspectives. In this sense, everything that ChatGPT writes is bullshit.
This is why the s-called AIQ is critical. It is actually an extensin and a measurement f ur human IQ: ur verall knwledge f AI tls, ur mastery f clues, and ur ethical awareness. ChatGPT is ging t change everything and nthing. Creativity, imaginatin and ethics — these will all remain unique human dmains. It is the AI’s very limitatins that will make us appreciate ur wn.

【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文。文章论证了人类的创造力、想象力和道德是ChatGPT无法匹敌的，正在这些独有的人类品质将我们与人工智能区分开来，让人类更加欣赏自己。
1.C 解析：根据第一段中“ChatGPT is a new AI system that sunds s human in cnversatins that it culd hst its wn radi prgrams.(hatGPT是一种新的人工智能系统，它在对话中听起来非常像人类，它甚至可以主持自己的广播节目)”可知，ChatGPT可以与人聊天，进行非常自然的语言应答。故选C项。
2.D 解析：根据第二段中“Sme cmpare the emergence f ChatGPT t the impact f the iPhne, but that desn’t d it justice.(有些人将ChatGPT的出现与iPhne的影响相提并论，但这并不公平)”可知，对于有人将ChatGPT与iPhne相提并论，作者并不赞同。结合划线词前“mre”可推知，作者认为ChatGPT比iPhne更具有创新性和颠覆性，所以划线词与revlutinary意思相近，意为“革命性的，颠覆性的”。故选D项。
3.B 解析：根据第四段中“Unfrtunately, ChatGPT will reprduce misinfrmatin frm any f its input surces — it is nt an intelligent system that tries t balance r weight different perspectives. In this sense, everything that ChatGPT writes is bullshit.(不幸的是，ChatGPT会从任何输入源中复制错误信息——它不是一个试图平衡或权衡不同观点的智能系统。从这个意义上说，ChatGPT所写的一切都是胡扯)”可知，ChatGPT只是复制信息，不能辨别信息的真伪，所以作者认为它是一个胡扯生成器。故选B项。
4.A 解析：通读全文，并结合第二段中“And yet, that desn’t necessarily mean the end f the wrld is upn us. On the cntrary, ChatGPT, I wuld argue, might serve t make us mre aware f ur irreplaceable human qualities.(然而，这并不一定意味着世界末日就要来了。相反，我认为ChatGPT可能会让我们更多地意识到我们不可替代的人类品质)”和最后一段中“ChatGPT is ging t change everything and nthing. Creativity, imaginatin and ethics — these will all remain unique human dmains. It is the AI’s very limitatins that will make us appreciate ur wn.(ChatGPT会改变一切，也不会改变什么。创造力、想象力和道德——这些都将是人类独有的领域。正是人工智能的局限性会让人类更加欣赏人类自己)”可知，本文论证了人类的创造力、想象力和道德是ChatGPT无法匹敌的，正在这些独有的人类品质将我们与人工智能区分开来。ChatGPT无法战胜人类，相反，正是ChatGPT之类的人工智能让我们认识到人类的独特，让人类更加欣赏自己。故“ChatGPT Makes Us Human (ChatGPT让人性的光辉更加辉煌)”是最佳标题。故选A项。
第二篇
It’s nt just in yur head: a desire t curl up n the sfa after a day spent tiling at the cmputer culd be a physical respnse t mentally demanding wrk, accrding t a study that links mental exhaustin t changes in brain physilgy that cause feelings f tiredness.
The study was cnducted by neurscientist Antnius Wiehler at the Paris Brain Institute and his clleagues. T learn the cause f mental exhaustin, the research team enrlled 40 participants and assigned 24 f them t perfrm a challenging task. These included lking at a cmputer screen and matching different letters that appeared. The ther 16 participants did a similar, but easier task. Bth teams wrked fr six hurs, and had tw ten-minute breaks.
While the study participants fcused n their wrk, Wiehler and his team scanned the glutamate (谷氨酸) in the brains f the participants. Glutamate is an imprtant signalling mlecule in the brain that wrks in memry and learning. T much glutamate may upset the brain’s functins, which means the brain is tired and it must rest.
The researchers fund that participants wh labured n the mre difficult task had higher levels f glutamate in the brain than thse wh wrked n the easier task. The result suggested peple wh spend mre than six hurs wrking n a task that requires a lt f thught are mre likely t feel tired.
And nw that a system has been established t measure metablic (新陈代谢的) changes in respnse t mental fatigue, the team hpe t learn mre abut hw t recver frm mental exhaustin. While the researchers haven’t wrked ut a new slutin, Wiehler ffers that, “I wuld emply gd ld recipes: rest and sleep! There is gd evidence that glutamate is eliminated frm a perid f rest. A gd nap can be as shrt as 20 minutes, but can make us feel ttally refreshed.”
1. What d Wiehler and his clleagues try t study?
A. Why thinking hard makes us feel tired.B. Why peple spend lng time n screen.
C. Wh prefers t take a challenging task.D. Hw peple can alternate wrk with rest.
2. Which task may cause mental exhaustin mre easily?
A. Watching a funny mvie n TV.B. Climbing the Muntain Tai ver 6 hurs.
C. Invlving a simple ecnmic-related decisin.D. Playing chess games n the cmputer fr 7 hurs.
3. What is the attitude f Wiehler tward the system?
A. SkepticalB. Negative.C. Indifferent.D. Supprtive.
4. What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?
A. There is n need t find a new slutin.B. It is n use putting the system int reality.
C. Further study is necessary fr mental exhaustin.D. A nap is the best way t reduce the mental tiredness.

What’s mre imprtant in determining life success—bk smarts r street smarts?This questin gets at the heart f an imprtant debate cntrasting the relative imprtance f cgnitive(认知) intelligence(CI) and emtinal intelligence(EI).
Cgnitive intelligence is still recgnized as an imprtant element f success,particularly when it cmes t academic achievement.Peple with high cgnitive intelligence typically d well in schl,ften earn mre mney,and tend t be healthier in general.
But tday experts recgnize that cgnitive intelligence is nt the nly determining factr f life success.Instead,it is part f a cmplex range f influences—ne that includes emtinal intelligence.Many cmpanies nw prvide emtinal intelligence training and use emtinal intelligence tests as part f the hiring prcess.Research has fund that individuals with strng leadership ptential als tend t be mre emtinally intelligent,suggesting that a high emtinal intelligence is an imprtant quality fr business leaders and managers.Accrding t a survey f hiring managers,almst 75% f the respnders suggested that they valued an emplyee’s emtinal intelligence mre than his cgnitive intelligence.
Nw that emtinal intelligence is s imprtant,can it be taught r strengthened?Accrding t ne meta-analysis that lked at the results f scial and emtinal learning prgrams,the answer t that questin is definitely yes.Strategies fr teaching emtinal intelligence include character educatin,mdeling psitive behavirs,encuraging peple t think abut hw thers are feeling,and finding ways t be mre empathetic(共鸣) tward thers.
All in all,life success is a result f many factrs.Bth cgnitive intelligence and emtinal intelligence play rles in verall success,as well as health,wellness,and happiness.Rather than fcusing n which factrs have a prir influence,the greatest benefit may lie in learning t imprve skills in multiple areas.In additin t strengthening cgnitive abilities,such as memry and mental fcus,yu can als acquire and imprve scial and emtinal skills.

第四篇
The COVID crisis has led many scientists t take up arms (r at least keybards) t defend their cmpanies and t be sure,science needs defenders these days.But in their passin t fight back against vaccine(疫苗) rejectin and ther frms f science denial(否定),sme scientists say things that just aren’t true.
One ppular mve is t insist that science is right and that nce we discver the truth abut the wrld,we are dne.Anyne wh denies such truths (they suggest) is stupid r ignrant.Even a mdest familiarity with the histry f science ffers many examples f matters that scientists thught they had decided,nly t discver that they needed t be recnsidered.Sme familiar examples are Earth as the center f the universe,the abslute nature f time and space,the stability f cntinents,and the cause f infectius diseases.
Science is a prcess f learning and discvery,and smetimes we learn that what we thught was right is actually wrng.Science can als be understd as an institutin (r better,a set f institutins) that prmtes this wrk.T say that science is “true” r “permanent” is like saying that “marriage is permanent”.At best,it’s a bit ff-key.Marriage tday is adapted t a wrld that is very different frm what it was in the 16th r 18th century,s are mst f ur “laws” f nature.They are at best,true fr nw r true until prven therwise.
In my view,the biggest mistake scientists make is t claim that this is all smehw simple and therefre t imply that anyne wh desn’t get it is dumb(愚蠢的).Yet science is nt simple,and neither is the natural wrld where the greatest challenge f science cmmunicatin lies.
Scientific theries are nt perfect cpies f reality,but we have gd reasns t believe that they capture(捕获) significant elements f it.And experience reminds us that when we ignre reality,it sner r later cmes back t bite us.
1.What can we learn frm paragraphs 1 and 2?
A.What scientists said is abslutely trustwrthy.
B.Scientific findings call fr further cnsideratin.
C.It’s unwise t deny sme truths scientists have fund.
D.Scial cmmn sense cntributes t discvering a scientific thery.

【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文。文章就“科学是否是正确的”这一话题展开论述。作者认为科学应该是一个学习和发现的过程,科学发现不是永久的,人们应该为变化做好准备。
1.B 解析: 推理判断题。由第一段中“But in their passin t ’t true.”和第二段中“Even a mdest t be recnsidered.”可知,科学家可能会说不真实的事情,有些科学家认为已经解决的问题也可能需要重新思考,由此推知,科学发现需要进一步考虑,故选B项。
2.C 解析: 细节理解题。由第三段中“T say that science is ‘true’ r ‘permanent’ ‘laws’ f nature.”可知,作者将科学与婚姻相比较是因为科学与婚姻都不是一成不变的,故选C项。
3.C 解析: 推理判断题。由第三段中“Science is a wrng.”以及全文内容可推知,科学发现并不是一成不变的,由此推断“我”们应该为变化做好准备,故选C项。
4.B 解析: 主旨大意题。文章主要就科学是否正确进行论述,说明科学应该是一个学习和发现的过程,因此B项“科学真的是‘正确的’吗?”是最佳标题,故选B项。
第五篇
Cmpared with the bvius envirnmental issues we hear abut every day,littering ften takes a backseat—but it’s mre pressing than we may think.
Sme may say that a banana peel ut f yur car alng the mtrway wuld be a harmless actin.Actually,they are wrng.A banana peel can take up t tw years t decmpse(分解),and with a third f mtrists admitting t littering while driving,that’s a whle lt f discarded banana peels,r much wrse.An range peel and a cigarette butt have a similar bidegrading(生物降解) term t that f a banana,but tin and aluminum cans last up t 100 years,and plastic bttles last frever,s d glass bttles and plastic bags.
Despite the fact that lnger-lasting materials will serve t damage the envirnment and its animals fr lnger,we can’t nly measure the severity f a certain type f rubbish by its lifetime.Fr example,despite having a fairly shrt bidegrading time,mre than 120 tns f cigarette-related litter is thrwn away in the UK every day.Similarly,ur regular littering here and there has caused the UK’s muse ppulatin t increase by 60 millin.This suddenly isn’t s mysterius when yu cnsider that since the 1960s ur annual littering has increased by an amazing 500 per cent.
It’s nt a cheap habit either:UK taxpayers spent ￡500 millin n keeping the streets clean.S,it’s nt surprising that if caught fly-tipping,yu culd face a ￡20,000 fine.Regardless f hw severe the punishment might seem,hwever,amng the reprted cases nly 2,000 were punished ut f 825,000,s we still have a lng way t g in making sure peple bserve the rules.
T take back ur beautiful cities,we need t d mre than simply nt leaving rubbish where it ught nt t be.We need t care mre abut the wrld arund us.
1.Which f the fllwing is the easiest t decmpse cmparatively?
A.An range peel.B.A plastic bag.
C.An aluminum can.D.A glass bttle.
2.What can we knw frm paragraph 3?
A.Annual littering has increased a little in the UK since the 1960s.
B.Shrter-lasting materials will be less harmful t the envirnment.
C.Cigarette-related litter is a severe envirnmental prblem in the UK.

【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了“乱扔垃圾往往被置于次要地位”这一问题,其实解决这一问题比我们想象的要更加紧迫。
1.A 解析: 细节理解题。由第二段中“An range peel and a cigarette butt have a similar bidegrading term t that f a banana,but tin and aluminum cans last up t 100 years,and plastic bttles last frever,s d glass bttles and plastic bags.”可知,橘子皮相比较其他三种东西更容易分解,故选A项。
2.C 解析: 推理判断题。由第三段中“Despite the fact that lnger-lasting materials will serve t damage the envirnment and its animals fr lnger,we can’t nly measure the severity f a certain type f rubbish by its lifetime.Fr example,despite having a fairly shrt bidegrading time,mre than 120 tns f cigarette-related litter is thrwn away in the UK every day.”可知,在英国,与香烟有关的垃圾是一个严重的环境问题,故选C项。
3.B 解析: 推理判断题。由第四段中“Regardless f hw severe the punishment might seem,hwever,amng the reprted cases nly 2,000 were punished ut f 825,000,s we still have a lng way t g in making sure peple bserve the rules.”可知,在有关垃圾上的处罚是远远不够的,这与B项(沧海一粟/九牛一毛)意思相符,故选B项。
