题目内容：

Not too long ago, our teacher, being a “tree-hugger” (as the kids call her), had us write an essay on an environmental issue . I was eager to start, but something made me stop.

“What is an environmental issue ?” one kid asked . “What if we don’t care about the environment ?” another complained. “ It’s not like it affects me .”

These comments astounded me .I have always cared about the environment and assumed that others did too. From the surprised look on my teacher’s face, I could tell she felt the same way.

In no time, I finished my essay . In my essay I wrote about logging(伐木), which is an important industry, but if we continue to cut down trees without replacing them, it will damage the environment.

There are so many things that we can do to save our world. Recycling, of course, is always a good thing, but not everyone has a recycling plant nearby ( I don’t ) . There are other ways to help the environment . Plant a tree. Don’t waste water.

I can’t stand it when a person’s excuse for not caring is “Nothing’s going to happen in my lifetime, so why should I care ?” Sure, the chances of something terrible happening are slim, but I want people to realize that if we don’t deal with it, someone will have to eventually. Do you want that to be your children ?

When my teacher told me to read my essay to my class, I was a little embarrassment because I didn’t want everyone to call me “tree- hugger”. I realize now that if being a tree-hugger means you cares about the environment, I’m a tree-hugger 100 percent. I just wish more people were too.

答案解析：

文章大意：本文是记叙文。文章讲述了一位老师让学生们以环境为话题写文章的故事。

小题1:D 推断题。由第一段中的had us write an essay on an environmental issue 及最后一段中的being a tree-hugger means you care about the environment 可知，老师的外号源于她关心环境。故D正确。

小题2:C 词义猜测题。由第三段中的I have always cared about the environment and assumed that others did too. From the surprised look on my teacher’s face, I could tell she felt the same way 可知，作者和老师一样对学生们的评论感到震惊。故选shocked。

小题3:B大意题。第五段主要介绍了保护环境的方法，如回收利用、植树、节约用水。故B项正确。

小题4:B 推理判断题。由最后一段首句中的When my teacher told me to read my essay to my class 可推测，作者的文章符合老师的本意，所以老师才让作者在课堂上给同学们朗读自己的文章。故B项正确。
