We produce 500 billion of plastic bags in a year worldwide and they are thrown away polluting oceans, killing wildlife and getting dumped in landfills where they take up to 1,000 years to decompose. Researchers have been unsuccessfully looking for a solution.

The 16-year-old Canadian high school student, Daniel Burd, from Waterloo Collegiate Institute, has discovered a way to make plastic bags degrade(降解) in as few as 3 months, a finding that won him first prize at the Canada Wide Science Fair, a $10,000 prize, a $20,000 scholarship, and a chance to revolutionize a major environmental issue.

Burd’s strategy was simple: Since plastic does eventually degrade, it must be eaten by microorganisms(微生物).If those microorganisms could be identified, we could put them to work eating the plastic much faster than under normal conditions.

With this goal in mind, he grounded plastic bags into a powder and concocted(调制) a solution of household chemicals, yeast(酵母) and tap water to encourage microbes growth.Then he added the plastic powder and let the microbes work their magic for 3 months.Finally, he tested the resulting bacterial culture on plastic bags, exposing one plastic sample to dead bacteria as a control.Sure enough, the plastic exposed(暴露) to the live bacteria was 17% lighter than the control after six weeks.

The inputs are cheap, maintaining the required temperature takes little energy because microbes produce heat as they work, and the only outputs are water and tiny levels of carbon dioxide.

“Almost every week I have to do chores and when I open the closet door, I have piles of plastic bags falling on top of me.One day, I got tired of it and I wanted to know what other people are doing with these plastic bags.The answer: not much.So I decided to do something myself.” Said Daniel Burd.

1.Daniel Burd won first prize at the Canada-Wide Science Fair because ________.

A. he found a way to degrade plastics in shorter time

B. he contributed much to environmental protection

C. he found a new kind of microorganism

D. he could encourage microbe growth in an easier way

2.Daniel Burd exposed one plastic sample to dead bacteria to ________.

A. make the live bacteria work better

B. know which bacteria worked faster

C. test how effective his method was

D. control the temperature in the process

3.Maintaining the required temperature takes little energy because ________.

A. plastics can get hot easily

B. microbes can produce heat themselves

C. much carbon dioxide is produced

D. the temperature can be controlled

4.Daniel Burd got his idea from ________.

A. his school textbook

B. the failure of researchers

C. his everyday work

D. the practice of other people

Some people surveyed tasted the sweet, salty, and crunchy together with other tastes of food as they listen to different noises. It shows that louder noises reduced the reported sweetness or saltiness of food while increasing the measure of crunchiness(松脆).

It may go some way to explain why airline food is widely complained about by both the workers and passengers. Andy Woods, a researcher, said, “It’s a general opinion that plane foods aren’t fantastic, but I’m sure airlines do their best, so we wondered if there were other reasons. One thought was that perhaps the background noise may have an effect. NASA gives their space explorers very strong-tasting foods, because for some reason, they can’t taste food that strongly—again, it may have something to do with the background noise.”

In a study, 48 people were fed sweet foods or salty ones, while listening to nothing or noise through earphones. Meanwhile they rated(划分等级) the foods. In noisier settings, foods were rated less salty or sweet than they were when it was silent, but were rated crunchier. “The evidence shows that if the background noise is loud, your attention might be drawn to that, away from the food.” Dr. Woods said.

“We are still at an early stage of progressing and this is a rather small study to really draw definitive(最完整可靠的) conclusions from,” Dr Woods said, “but they suggest that restaurants could well adapt their choice of food for a given environment.”

Also in the group’s findings there is the suggestion that the overall satisfaction with the food is also related to the degree to which people like what they are hearing.

1.How does the food taste when it is eaten in a noisy environment?

A. Less salty but crunchier.B. Sweeter and saltier.

C. Sweeter but less crunchy.D. Less sweet and crunchy.

2.Why does NASA give their space explorers very strong-tasting foods?

A. Foods become less tasty in space.

B. The explorers lose their sense of taste in space.

C. Loud noises in space may weaken the explorers’ sense of taste.

D. The explorers need tastier foods to keep energetic in space.

3.We can infer from what Dr. Woods said in the 4th paragraph that ________.

A. the environment influences the food a restaurant sells

B. the researchers have made an effective conclusion

C. music will weaken people’s sense of taste while eating

D. listening to nothing while eating is the best choice

4. What would be the best title for the text?

A. The best dinner environment

B. How to change plane foods

C. Listening to music while eating

D. Background noise affects the taste of foods

There is no doubt whether setting a goal is very important. By set goals you are

taking control of your life. It is having a map to guide you to where you want to head.

With a clear direction, and with certain plans, you will straightly get what you want. On the contrary, without the goal, you do not know where to go or what you want. Then your life becomes dull or meaningless just like the dead water in a muddy lake.

We find that successful people were always those having and achieving their goal.

They set goals, short-term or long-run, to help realize our dreams. Therefore, from my point of view, we should make clear what we really want it and follow our plans as many winners do.

Black Friday is the Friday following Thanksgiving Day in the United States. It has been regarded as the beginning of the holiday shopping season. Although it’s not an official holiday, millions of employers give their employees the day off, and many people use that day to get a jump-start on their holiday shopping. A similar day in Canada and Great Britain is called “Boxing Day”.

Black Friday has become somewhat of a marketing sensation in recent years. Since 2005, it has been the busiest shopping day of the year. To lure shoppers, retailers (零售商) routinely open their doors as early as 4 a.m. and offer special sales and promotions to the shoppers that arrive early. Some of the special deals offered by stores are only available in limited quantities. That is why some shoppers intent on getting the best deals often camp out in front of stores overnight so that they’ll be the first in line when the doors open.

But why Black Friday? Historians believe the name started in Philadelphia in the mid-1960s. Bus drivers and police used “Black Friday” to describe the heavy traffic that would block city streets the day after Thanksgiving as shoppers headed to the stores.

Businesses, however, didn’t like the negative tone associated with the “Black Friday” name. In the early 1980s, a more positive explanation of the name began to circulate. According to this alternative explanation, Black Friday is the day when retailers finally begin to turn a profit for the year. In accounting terms (会计行业), operating at a loss is called being “in the red” because accountants traditionally used red ink to show negative amounts. Positive amounts were usually shown in black ink. Thus, being “in the black” is a good thing because it means stores are operating at a profit.

Recently, for those who are too busy to shop on Black Friday or who just don’t want to fight the crowds, the Monday following Black Friday has become known as Cyber Monday (网络星期一) for the many online deals.

1.On Black Friday, the Americans ________.

A. don’t have to go to work as usual

B. look exactly like the Canadians

C. are usually busy doing shopping

D. stay at home and relax themselves

2.The underlined word “lure” (in Paragraph 2) probably means ________.

A. protectB. attractC. persuadeD. remind

3.How do the retailers understand Black Friday?

A. It is totally different from Boxing Day.

B. They usually lose some money on the day.

C. It never keeps them very busy.

D. It probably brings them more money.

4.The author writes this passage in order to ________.

A. state the development of Cyber Monday

B. tell the difference between red and black

C. introduce Black Friday to the readers

D. explain the meaning of Boxing Day
