We all know there is a problem with plastic pollution. Five trillion (万亿) plastic bags ar

used every year. One million plastic drinking bottles are bought every minute.

What if we could use plastic waste to build roads? This is exactly what Toby McCartney

has done

In 2019, McCartney's UK-based company, MacRebur, built the world’'s first plastic road

in Elgin town, Scotland. The plastic waste was made into grains (颗粒) and then mixed with

bitumen (沥青). The road looks just like any other road. But it is more stretchy(有弹性的)

thanks to the plastic.

"Our technology can help solve the problem of plastic waste. It can also produce roads that

deal better with changes in the weather, reducing potholes (坑洼)," McCartney told the BBC.

McCartney's idea came from a trip to India. "I saw people in India would put plastic waste

into potholes and burn it. The plastic would melt down (熔化) in the hole," said MeCartney.

"I know there must be some similarities between the plastic and bitumen, which both

come from oil. 'That's how I started to think about mixing them," he said.

After lots of testing, McCartney found the perfect idea. And now his company has built

many plastic roads around the world, from Australia to Europe. A one-kilometer stretch of road

uses about 684, 000 plastic bottles or 1.8 million plastic bags. The road itself can be recycled

at the end of its lifespan(寿命). The materials can be reused to build new roads.

"We are just a small part of ending the plastic problems, but it is nice to be part of it,"

McCartney said. “I just don't want my daughters to live in a world where there are more plastics

in our oceans than fish."

56. Paragraph I is written to show that plastic pollution is

A. faster than imagined B. better than other pollution

C.mostly unknown D. a serious problem

57. Compared with common roads, the plastic road

A. is easy to break B. is afraid of hot weather

C. is more stretchy D.costs more money

58. What inspired(激发) MeCartney to build the plastic road?

A. Indian people's way of repairing roads.

B. Seeing cracks and potholes on roads one day.

C. His wish of reducing plastic pollution.

D. His knowledge of plastic and bitumen

59. plastic bottles are needed to build a 10-kilometer stretch of plastic road.

A.684,000 B.6.84 million C. 1.8 million D.18 million

60. What does McCartney mean in the last paragraph?

A. Children should also join to reduce plastic pollution.

B. Plastic pollution will soon be solved with his help

C. Plastic pollution will become more and more serious

D. He is willing to offer help in reducing plastic pollution

Here’s a difficult question. Are you happy?

It’s difficult because it depends on who you compare yourself to. Most people compare themselves with those around them. Am I happier than my classmates or my friends? We also compare ourselves with people we never meet. When we compare so, we may feel sad easily.

People like sad stories. We are interested in other people’s sadness, but we don’t let others know our own. Psychologists(心理学家) find that people don’t feel like telling others when they’re sad or upset, but they will shout if they are happy.

People often show their happiness in public while hiding their sadness.

As the famous thinker Montesquieu(孟德斯鸠) said about 350 years ago:

“If we only want to be happy, it would be easy, but we want to be happier than other people, and that is almost always difficult, since we think them happier than they are.”

46．When we often compare ourselves with others, we may feel ______.

A．excited B．interested C．sad D．surprised

More children in China are putting on weight. In 2018, 16 percent of Chinese children and teenagers were overweight or obese（肥胖的）, according to the National Health Commission.

Being too fat is bad for children's health. According to the World Health Organization（WHO）, overweight and obese children are more likely to develop diseases like diabetes（糖尿病）at a younger age. This can lead to a higher chance of premature（过早的）death.

On Oct 23, the National Health Commission, together with five other national departments（部门）, worked out a plan to prevent and control obesity. The plan aims to cut the average annual（每年的）growth rate of obesity among children aged 0-18 years by 70 percent from 2020 to 2030, Xinhua reported.

Kids are putting on weight because of changes in their diet and lifestyle, according to experts. Too much schoolwork and greater use of electronic devices（电子产品）could also be a cause.

According to the plan, teachers should not allow their classes to run too late or too early. They should make sure that students have breaks and enough physical activity. Primary and secondary school students should have at least three hours of vigorous（剧烈的）physical activity each week.

Parents should reduce their children's use of electronic devices and stop their children from eating foods that are high in sugar, fat and salt.

21．Paragraph 2 is about _________.

A．a recent WHO report B．the causes of childhood obesity

C．Chinese children's obesity rate D．the effects of being too fat

C．stop children from getting fat D．encourage children to live happily

23．The plan suggests that schools should _________.

B．Why Chinese children love junk food.

Thailand is one of the world’s largest “supporters” to plastic pollution in the ocean. The problem is so serious that dead sea animals have been seen with plastic in their stomachs.

At last, the country decided to take action. The movement introduced a nationwide ban（禁令）on single-use plastic bags. The ban came into effect on January 1, 2020. Stores are not allowed to offer customers single-use plastic bags. On television, plastic bags are pixelated（打马赛克）. Many companies and supermarkets are encouraging people to say no to single-use plastics.

What do the local people think of the ban? How are they going without plastic bags? Well, it seems Thai people are among the most humorous in the world. They are filling their T-shirts, fishnets and suitcases with the things they buy. Pictures of creative shoppers have become popular on the Internet.

One shopper Stupanee Burut-thong, said, “At first, I wasn’t used to shopping without plastic bags. It’s not easy to change your way of thinking and behavior. But I would often remind myself of the harm that plastic has done to sea animals. So I have been trying to forget about plastic bags.”

In 2019, another Asian county China announced a national standard for biodegradable（可生物降解的）plastic shopping bags. It is technologically prepared for their production. Some areas have also got valuable experience that others can learn from. For example, Mexico City introduced a ban on plastic bags in 2020. There, the law is bringing back traditional ways of packing things. They are using bamboo baskets again.

Scientists hope more countries will introduce a plastic bag ban. Everyone should do something to save this beautiful planet.
