24、How do you deal with plastic(塑料) bags from the supermarket? Throw them away or reuse them? How about eating them?

       Envi Green in India has made a bag with natural ingredients(成分). It looks and feels just like plastic, but can be broken down. The bags bring no harm to the environment. Both humans and animals can safely eat them. Envi Green founder(创始人) Ashwath Hedge spent four years trying out such a thing of 12 natural ingredients(原料). They include potatoes, corn, vegetable oil and bananas. He made the ingredients into liquid(液体) and used the liquid to make the bag.

       Although the Envi Green bags are much more expensive than those usual plastic bags, they are good for our environment. Usually, it takes 1, 000 years for usual plastic bags to break down. But an Envi Green bag can be naturally broken down in less than 180 days. It can also be broken down in less than a day in water, and in about 15 seconds in boiling water.

26、Picture the scene: It’s midnight. You’re very hungry after studying for a long time. Then you see a nice pie in the fridge. Should you eat it? It seems that you shouldn’t for many reasons, including its influence on your brains.

Scientists have long known that eating late at night can make us put on weight. But now a new study has shown that late-night eating can also have a bad influence on our brains — it might hurt our ability to learn new things and store memories.

“We believe that late-night eating may affect(影响) our learning by affecting the parts of the brain that control learning and memory,” Dawn Loh. PhD, a project scientist at the University of California, Los Angeles, said. “We believe the timing of when we eat is the main cause of the damaged memory.”

For the study, the researchers did an experiment on mice. The mice were either allowed to eat during the daytime or during the night. They received the same amount of sleep and calories. Then the researchers tested the brains of the mice and noticed that the mice eating during the night were less able to remember things well.

So think twice before the midnight snack — it might be bad for more than your weight.

【1】The writer asks readers to picture the scene in the first paragraph to __________.

A．interest them and lead into the topic

A．to test whether eating late can affect memory

B．to check the brains of different mice

D．to prove mice are not good at remembering things

A．Eating snacks affects memory

B．Late-night eating hurts brains

C．Staying up late is bad

D．Keep away from snacks

27、Human activity is bringing big trouble to Mount Qomolangma. Both microplastics(微塑料) and climate change are polluting the mountain and causing its ice to melt, scientists say.

The highest mountain in the world is facing the problem of microplastics. A recent study found that the mountain is full of these plastics, which are usually less than 5 millimeters in size. They can be found in many things, including the clothing, tents and ropes that are left behind by climbers.

Microplastics take thousands of years to break down on their own. They are already known for posing a danger to sea animals. Now people are worried about Qomolangma, as the mountain already suffers from serious pollution.

Global warming is also affecting the mountain, as well as its climbers. Another study points out that the glaciers around Qomolangma have thinned by nearly 100 meters since the 1960s. As the ice melts, cracks in the ice are becoming deeper and more dangerous, bringing danger to those who try to climb the mountain, according to Global News.

Landslides(滑坡) are also becoming more probable. There are many parts of the mountain that are held together by just frozen rocks or permafrost(永久冻土), according to Professor Joseph Shea at the University of Northern British Columbia, Canada. When this permafrost melts, the risk of dangerous landslides goes up.

【1】Why is Mount Qomolangma full of microplastics?

A．Because of climate change.

B．Because microplastics are tiny.

C．Because of human activity.

D．Because the mountain ice melts.

【2】What does the underlined word “posing” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A．Causing.

B．Sensing.

C．Warning.

D．Controlling.

【3】How much have the glaciers probably thinned every ten years since the 1960s?

A．By 11 meters.

B．By 17 meters.

C．By 23 meters.

D．By 29 meters.

【4】What do we know about the glaciers around Mount Qomolangma?

A．They are more dangerous than landslides.

B．They made landslides happen all the time.

C．Landslides are caused by melted permafrost.

D．The cracks in the ice were made by climbers.

【5】In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?

A．Education.

B．Health.

C．Technology.

D．Environment.

28、Read the passage and fill in the blanks with suitable words（在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺。每空格限填一词,首字母已给）

Like many lovers of books, Mary and her husband, Richard Goldman, s【1】 walked past a bookstore without stopping to look inside. They often talked of opening their own store one day.

In o【2】 to realize their wish, they started by talking to bookstore owners and researching（调查） the industry. One figure caught their attention: they’d read some- where that roughly 20 percent of books sold were mysteries（推理小说）, and many buyers spent more than 300 a year on books. Mary and Richard were t【3】 mystery readers and owned a big collection of such books.

On Halloween 1992, they opened the Mystery Lovers Bookshop and Cafe near their home. With three children in college it was i【4】 for the couple to spend all the family’s money to start a shop. To cover the whole $100, 000 cost, they drew some of their savings, borrowed from relatives and from a bank.

The store broke even in its first year, with only $120,000 in sales. But Mary was always coming up with new ways to a【5】 customers. The shop had a coffee bar and it offered gifts to mystery lovers and served dinners for book clubs that met in the store. She also invited dozens of writers to d【6】 their stories. Today Mystery Lovers make sales of about 420,000 a year. After paying taxes, business costs and the six part-time sales clerks, Richard and Mary together earn about $34,000.

“The job you love may not go hand in hand with a million-dollar income,” says Richard. “This has always been about an e【7】 life for ourselves, not about making a lot of money.

29、Have you ever made something that no one else had made before? People who make something new are called ________. Victor Ochoa was one of those people.

Finally, he used what he had learned to build a plane. The body of the plane was made of two ________ side by side. The plane had a small motor (发动机) that sat between the two bikes. The back was shaped like a bird’s tail. The wings were ________ from a common plane. They could even be folded (折叠) down like a bird’s wings. Amazing!

Victor wanted to help people with his ideas. His ________ was like a motor that never turned off. He was always trying to make life better and easier. He did not let any difficulties (困难) ________ him from making other things.
