答案 E
解析 本文的标题是“地球的天使”，主题是环保，介绍的是几个孩子如何以自己的行动来从 事环保事业。第一段主要介绍Joy ing Brescia这个8岁的孩子是怎样从事环保工作的。细节内 容是，她发现很多人在海滩上丢烟头，便筹集钱买来很多塑料桶，放在海滩上，提醒人们把烟头 扔进捅里。选项D ( Don' t Litter）的意思是不要乱扔垃圾，概括了这段的意思，作为第一段的小 标题最合适，故选D。

第二段主要讲一名叫Carter Dunham的孩子和他的伙伴如何保护一片湿地及其里面的 珍奇动物的事情。选项F的意思是“保护野生动物”，正好概括了这段的意思，所以选F。

第三段主要讲一个名叫Barbara Brown的女孩和她的朋友们发现废弃的油污对土地污 染严重，提醒人们不要随便丢弃油污。原文中的“Don' t Be Crude”就是这个意思，与选项E相 同，故选E。

第四段主要介绍一名叫Ryan Hreljac的孩子通过打零工挣来的钱以及通过其他方式筹 来的钱，成立的“水井基金”(Well Foundation)，帮助非洲人喝上干净的水。选项A ( Provide Clean Water）的意思是“提供干净的水”，与本段主题一致，故选A。

此句问的是Joying把一些桶放在公共场所的目的是什么？结合第一段的意思，我们知 道这些桶是用来收集烟蒂的，故选E。

此句问的是人们感谢Carter Dunham所做的什么努力？第二段谈到的是他为保护湿地 和野生动物作出了自己的贡献，故选B。

本句问的是废弃的油回收后可以用来干什么？第三段倒数第二句话讲到女孩们探索 了一些废油再造的方法，并且和当地一家废油回收公司合作来处理这一问题。该句中的recy- cle有“（利用废旧材料）再造（新物品）”之意：因此选A。

本句问的是Ryan和他的朋友们一起帮助非洲人们实现什么梦想？第四段的主题是谈 让他们喝上干净的水，故D为答案。
