五、完形填空。
Do you often use plastic straws(吸管)? You probably use them to 1 lots of things such as soybean milk(豆浆), cola or milk tea. Plastic straws are small 2 they are a big problem. They are made in 10 minutes, used in 20 3 and normally remain on the earth for over 100 years since they cannot be 4 easily.
But how do plastic straws get into the 5? Because of human mistakes, they are often thrown away, left on beaches, or blown out of bins. The waste management in some areas are so poor and remember, all gutters(排水沟) lead to our ocean. 6, plastic straws kill ocean life. Once a 7 was found bleeding because a 12-centimetre-long plastic straw was pushed into 8 nose. How terrible!
In fact, around 500 million plastic straws are used every day in the US alone. That is enough to circle 9 two-and-a-half times around our planet! If we don't take action now, there will be 10 plastic in the ocean than fish by 2050.
Luckily, more and more people around the world have realized this problem. They begin to think about 11 plastic straws are necessary or not when drinking drinks.
So what can we do right now to reduce plastic pollution? The simplest way is to say " 12 " to single-use plastic, like straws. For example, next time if you go to a restaurant, make sure you order your drink without a straw. What if people need to use a straw? There are reusable(可重复使用的) straws instead. These straws can be used, 13, and reused over and over again.
The coffee house chain Starbucks has started to 14 lids(盖子) without straws and paper straws instead of plastic straws in almost 1,000 stores in Shanghai and Shenzhen. Starbucks is not alone. McDonald's has 15 taken action to reduce the use of plastic straws. It is hoped that more businesses and customers will work together to protect our environment.

你经常使用塑料吸管吗？你可能会用它们来喝很多东西，比如豆浆、可乐或者奶茶。塑料吸管虽小，但却是个大问题。它们在10分钟内被制造出来，在20分钟内被使用，而且由于它们不容易被分解，通常会在地球上留存100多年。
但是塑料吸管是如何进入海洋的呢？由于人类的失误，它们经常被丢弃，被遗留在海滩上，或者被吹出垃圾桶。一些地区的垃圾管理非常糟糕，要记住，所有的排水沟最终都会通向我们的海洋。更糟糕的是，塑料吸管会杀死海洋生物。有一次，一只海龟被发现流血了，因为一根12厘米长的塑料吸管被插进了它的鼻子里。多么可怕啊！
事实上，仅在美国，每天就有大约5亿根塑料吸管被使用。这个数量足够绕我们的星球将近两圈半了！如果我们现在不采取行动，到2050年，海洋中的塑料将会比鱼更多。
幸运的是，世界上越来越多的人已经意识到了这个问题。他们开始思考喝饮料时塑料吸管是否有必要。
那么我们现在能做些什么来减少塑料污染呢？最简单的方法就是对一次性塑料，比如吸管，说“不”。例如，下次你去餐馆的时候，确保你点的饮料不要吸管。如果人们需要使用吸管怎么办呢？有可重复使用的吸管可供选择。这些吸管可以被使用、清洁，然后反复使用。
咖啡连锁店星巴克已经开始在上海和深圳的近1000家门店提供不带吸管的盖子和纸质吸管来代替塑料吸管。星巴克不是唯一这样做的。麦当劳也已经采取行动来减少塑料吸管的使用。希望更多的企业和顾客会共同努力来保护我们的环境。
