Mre than ne-third f the wrld’s fd is wasted r thrwn away, mst f which ends up in landfills, prducing very large amunts f planet-warming greenhuse gases. Nw, many studies shw that it is becming harder t grw enugh fd t feed an increasing ppulatin due t climate change and sil degradatin.
But ne f the mst prmising and simplest slutins lies in the prblem itself: this wasted fd — if cmpsted (堆肥) — culd slw climate change and imprve sil quality. Higher-quality sil als cntinues t absrb mre carbn frm the atmsphere, helping t imprve plants and cntributing further t fighting climate change. Returning ne tn f rganic matter t each hectare f sil wuld increase the prductin f cereal crps each year in Africa, Asia and Suth America by millins f tns.
While it is true that peple can cmpst in their yards, cmmunity gardens, r even n their kitchen cunters, larger-scale effrts, including infrastructure (基础设施) and incentives (激励) fr cnsumers, wuld take it t the next level. Imagine if cnsumers culd just leave unwanted fd in a radside bin fr pickup, r drp it ff at a lcal stre, earning a few cents a bucket, just like what has been ffered fr recycling bttles r newspapers.
Mrever, in the case f cmpsting, the payment incentive system wuld be sustainable because the end-prduct f cmpst can be sld t farmers, making it an ecnmically wrkable mdel, smething that is ften lacking in recycling, especially fr certain materials, like many types f plastics.
Eventually, mre widespread cmpsting f fd wuld pave the way fr slutins t additinal waste challenges, such as the dispsal f packaging and clthing. This will have ther psitive effects as well; if mre cnsumers cmpst, cmpanies will be mre inspired t make and use cmpstable packaging, clthing, and ther prducts. While mre cmpstable items are starting t emerge tday, additinal cmpsting will further drive demand and innvatin, and ffer a game-changing slutin fr the planet.
24.What is paragraph 1 mainly abut?
A.The uneven distributin f fd arund the wrld.
B.The burden f ppulatin grwth n the planet.
C.The urgency f prperly dealing with wasted fd.
D.The great impact f climate change n fd.
25.What can be learned abut the apprach t cmpsting wasted fd?
A.A gd system is needed t carry ut it effectively.
B.It wuld take a lng term t have an effect.
C.It is nly wrkable n a small scale.
D.It may raise peple’s awareness f reducing fd waste.
26.What des the authr think f the payment incentive system f cmpsting fd?
A.It is highly prfitable.
B.It is easy t carry ut.
C.It is a sustainable ecnmic cycle pattern.
D.It is mre effective than ther recycling systems.
27.What can be a suitable title fr the text?

C.Hw Wasted Fd Culd Impact Humans
D.Hw Wasted Fd Culd Becme a Business

Obese peple experience discriminatin (歧视) in many parts f their lives, and the wrkplace is n exceptin. Studies have lng shwn that bese wrkers, defined as thse with a bdy-mass index (BMI) f 30 r mre, earn significantly less than their slimmer c-wrkers.
Yet the csts f weight discriminatin may be even greater than previusly thught. “The verwhelming evidence,” wrte the Institute fr emplyment Studies, “is that it is nly wmen living with besity wh experience the besity wage penalty (薪资损失).” They were expressing a view that is widely aired in academic papers. T test it, The Ecnmist has analyzed data cncerning 23,000 wrkers frm the American Time Use Survey, cnducted by the Bureau f Labur Statistics. Our number-prcessing suggests that, in fact, being bese hurts the earnings f bth wmen and men.
The data we analyzed cver men and wmen aged between 25 and 54 and in full-time emplyment. At a general level, it is true that men’s BMIs are unrelated t their wages. But that changes fr men with university degrees. Fr them, besity is assciated with a wage penalty f nearly 8%, even after accunting fr the separate effects f age, race, graduate educatin and marital status.
The cnclusin — that well-educated wrkers in particular are penalized fr their weight — hlds fr bth sexes. Mrever, the higher yur level f educatin, the greater the penalty. We fund that bese men with a Bachelr’s degree (学士学位) earn 5% less than their thinner clleagues, while thse with a Master’s degree earn 14% less. Obese wmen, it is true, still have it wrse: fr them, the equivalent figures are 12% and 19%, respectively (分别地).
Yur line f wrk makes a difference, t. When we dealt with the numbers fr individual ccupatins and industries, we fund the greatest differences in high-skilled jbs. Obese wrkers in health care, fr example, make 11% less than their slimmer clleagues; thse in management rles make rughly 9% less, n average. In sectrs such as cnstructin and agriculture, meanwhile, besity is actually assciated with higher wages.
These results suggest that the ttal csts f wage discriminatin brne by verweight wrkers in America are greater than expected. Nw, it’s time fr ur gvernments t take it seriusly.
28.What des the underlined wrd “it” refer t in paragraph 2?
A.Obese men earn less salary.
B.Only bese wmen earn less salary.
C.Bth bese men and wmen earn less salary.
D.Weight discriminatin may be greater than previusly thught.
29.Wh may experience mre discriminatin cmpared t their clleagues accrding t the data?
A.A fat wman ffice directr.
B.An bese cnstructin wrker.
C.An bese man with a bachelr’s degree.
D.A heavier female dctr with a Dctr’s degree.
30.What is the writer’s attitude f verweight discriminatin?
A.SupprtiveB.ObjectiveC.SubjectiveD.indifferent
31.What might the authr cntinue talking abut?
A.Overweight discriminatin in ther cuntries.
B.The reasn f discriminating bese peple in their lives.
C.American peple’s attitude twards verweight discriminatin.
D.Actins taken against verweight discriminatin in wrkplaces.

Placed befre yu are tw pts. Each cntains 100 balls. Yu are given a clear descriptin f the first pt’s cntents, in which there are 50 red balls and 50 black balls. The ecnmist running the experiment is tight-lipped abut the secnd, saying nly that there are 100 balls divided between red and black in sme percentage. Then yu are ffered a chice. Pick a red ball frm a pt and yu will get a millin dllars. Which pt wuld yu like t pull frm? Nw try again, but select a black ball. Which pt this time? Mst peple chse the first pt bth times, despite such a chice implying that there are bth mre and fewer red balls than in the secnd pt.
This fact is knwn as the Ellsberg paradx after Daniel Ellsberg, wh called the behaviur hate uncertainty. It reveals a deeper prblem facing the wrld as it struggles with climate change.
Ignrance f the future carries a cst tday: uncertainty makes risks uninsurable, r at the very least expensive. The less insurers knw abut risks, the mre capital they need t prtect their balance-sheets against pssible lsses.
Insurance is a tl f climate adaptatin. Indeed, insurance calculatrs have as big a rle t play as activists in the fight against climate change. Withut insurance, thse whse hmes burn in a wildfire r are destryed by a fld will lse everything. Insurance can als be a mtive fr crrective actin. Higher insurance expenses, which accurately reflect risk, stimulate peple t adapt sner, whether by discuraging building in risky areas r encuraging peple t mve away frm high fire risk land. If prices are wrng, sciety will be mre hurt by a htter wrld than therwise wuld be the case. Pliticians cnsidering financial aid fr hme insurance n fld plains ught t nte.
32.The experiment f the tw pts shws that ___________.
A.instinct smetimes wrks better than reasningB.mst peple prefer predictability t uncertainty
C.peple are willing t take risks t get a rewardD.it is impssible t always make the right decisin
33.What’s the functins f insurance?
A.It raises peple’s awareness f climate change.
B.It prevents peple frm taking risks.
C.It mtivates peple t adapt t risky envirnment.
D.It helps climate refugees t relcate.
34.What’s authr’s attitude twards financial aids fr hme insurance?
A.OppsingB.SupprtiveC.UncertainD.Ambiguus
35.Which f the fllwing culd be the best title fr the text?
A.Preventin is better than remedy
B.Imprving frecast can reduce uncertainty
C.Uncertainty pushes up the price f insurance
D.Speedy actin is urgently needed fr climate change

A teenage by with Dwn syndrme (唐氏综合征) wh was traveling with his family had becme upset and wuld nt return t his seat, in spite f the cabin crew’s warnings ver the ludspeaker that it was almst time t land. In terms f such 56 situatin, the pilt was frced t circle abve the airprt 57 (temprary), delaying (延迟) the landing and angering peple n the already tense flight.
Thugh the by’s elderly parents and adult brthers and sisters tried t persuade him t get ff the flr and back int his seat, he was 58 (ppse) t their advice reslutely. They seemed t be 59 despair. Subsequently, Murphy, 42 — wh had been a teacher fr abut 20 years-glanced at the by, std up and quickly headed t the back f the plane.
She fund the by in the passage between rws f seats, lying n his belly (腹部). S she als lay dwn n her stmach t face him.

Thanks t his timely assistance, the plane was finally able t land safely n the grund. 61 ne might expect, n ne was impatient t step ff the flight with parcels. Instead, calmed passengers — bviusly fllwing Murphy’s amazing example — allwed the by and his family 62 (depart) first, smiling at them as they passed.

Sptted lanternflies (斑点灯笼蝇) are an invasive species. Since 2014, they have been seen all acrss the eastern United States. The insects are harmful t many plants, and can disturb entire ecsystems. State fficials have urged peple t kill sptted lanternflies wherever they see them.
When Jy saw the pests in her schl curtyard, she thught she had t d smething. “I’ve always wanted t take envirnmental actin,” she says, “and shw peple that n ne is ever t small t make a difference.”
S she started a club called Squash (压扁). Its missin is t kill sptted lanternflies arund the schl. Mre than 20 students have jined. At first, they trapped the pests in empty water bttles and then squashed them. In a single day, the club managed t kill mre than a hundred sptted lanternflies.
Jy wanted t d mre. With research, she discvered a plant called milkweed. It’s nutritius fr pllinatrs (传粉昆虫) such as mnarch butterflies but pisnus t sptted lanternflies.
