You’ve heard that plastic is polluting the oceans—between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference? Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, foreing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic procts.
你听说过塑料正在污染海洋——每年有480万到1270万吨塑料进入海洋生态系统。但是，一根塑料吸管或杯子真的能带来变化吗？艺术家本杰明·冯·黄想让你知道这是真的。他用塑料垃圾建造了巨大的雕塑，让观众重新审视他们与一次性塑料制品的关系。

At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called“Strawpocalypse,” a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
今年年初，这位艺术家创作了一幅名为“Strawpocalypse”的作品，这是一对10英尺高的塑料波浪，凝结在半空，由从几次海滩清理志愿者中收集的168,000根塑料吸管制成，首次出现在越南胡志明市的埃斯黛拉广场购物中心。

Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source of plastic pollution, but they’ve recently come under fire because most people don’t need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that' s part of Von Wong's artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.
全球只有9%的塑料垃圾被回收利用。塑料吸管绝不是的塑料污染的最大来源，但最近它们受到了猛烈抨击，因为大多数人不需要用吸管喝饮料，而且由于它们体积小、重量轻，无法回收。冯·黄作品中的每一根吸管都可能来自一种只喝了几分钟的饮料。一旦饮料消失，吸管需要几个世纪才能消失。

In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload's worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled "Truckload of Plastic, "Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they’d been mped from a truck all at once.
在2018年的一篇文章中，冯·黄想举例说明具体的统计数据：每60秒，一卡车的塑料进入海洋。在这项名为“一卡车塑料”的作品中，冯·黄和一群志愿者收集了1万多块塑料，然后将它们绑在一起，看起来像是突然从卡车上被倾倒了下来。

Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to rece their plastic footprint.
冯·黄希望他的工作也能帮助大公司减少塑料足迹。

B. 初三英语阅读文，求准确地道的翻译

很多年前人们还没有温度计的时候，他们通常都是通过触摸某样东西来确定它们有多烫回或者多冷。下面这个答实验可以说明这样有多么容易发生错误。
拿三个杯子，第一个装着很热的水，第二个装着很冰的水，第三个装着与室内温度相当的水。然后你将一只手的其中一根手指放到热水里，另一只手的一根手指放到冰水里。你把手在这两个杯子里放上一分钟。然后你用这两根手指一根接一根的放进打三个杯子里看看里面的水有多热或者多冰。你会发现第三个杯子里的水对在冰水里泡过的手指来说很暖，但是在热水里泡过的手指会觉得这个杯子里的水比较冷。
这就是为什么你必须经常要用科学的方法来测量温度。你一定不能用你的感觉来说出温度。
如果你想用你的感觉来说明一个事实，那么你就会经常犯错。比如，当你要坐车去一个公园然后又想很快到达那里的时候，你就会觉得车好像走得好慢。比别的车都要慢。但是如果刚好是星期天你又有很多的时间，你就会觉得所有的公车小汽车都跑得很快。

D. 英语阅读短文环保行动翻译

As we all know, the environment around us is getting worse and worse. In some places we can't see fish swimming in the river or trees on the hills. Some people even have no clean water to drink. So I think we must do something to protect the environment. But what can we do? How to protect our environment? For example, we can go to school on foot or by bike instead of taking a car. We had better use shopping basketbets instead of plastic bags when we go shopping. We should use both sides of the paper when we write. Do't use paper cups. At our school dinning room, use our own bowls and chopsticks instead of disposable ones. We can reuse the water and save the electricity.In a word, if everyone pays more attention to our environment, there will be less pollution and our life will be better.
"There is only one earth", I hope everyone will protect our environment well.
周所周知，我们周围的环境变得越来越糟糕。有些地方我们看不到水了鱼儿在游泳， 山上不再有树。一些人甚至于没有干净的饮用水。因此我们必须做些事情来保护环境。我们能做什么呢？如何保护环境？例如，我们可以走着或骑车去上学，而不乘车。我们卖东西最好使用购物蓝而不用塑料袋。我们写字时要两面的纸张都用。不用纸杯子。在学校食堂，不用一次性筷子，要用自己的碗和筷子。我们再次用水，节约电。总之，如果人人都注意环境，污染会更少，我们的生活会更好。“只有一个地球”，我希望人人都能很好地保护环境。
