The Suth Brnx is ne f the prest and mst plluted places in America, with smg-chked freeways and smelly wastewater treatment plants.
“We’re a dumping grund,” Omar explains. “All the garbage frm the rest f New Yrk City ends up here.”
But Omar started lking at garbage in a different way. “A lt f what peple thrw away is perfectly gd,” he says. “Just lk at that stuff frm cnstructin sites — drs, sinks, tilets. Peple will buy thse things. It’s nly called garbage because smebdy threw it away.” Omar was just ut f cllege and wrking fr an envirnmental grup called Sustainable Suth Brnx when he started cnsidering hw t get this “gd garbage” t peple wh culd use it. Instead f destrying ld things, why nt clean them up and resell them? Why nt hire peple in the cmmunity t d the wrk? Better yet, why nt make this business a “cperative,” which means the peple wrking in the business wn it and share the prfits?
Out f this, Omar started the first cperative in the cuntry dedicated t reusing cnstructin waste. T start his business, Omar put up flyers alng the truck-jammed, trash-filled neighbrhd streets, lking fr peple t wrk with him. He sn fund fur ther dedicated wrkers. They rented a warehuse and started lking fr dnatins f used materials.
In April 2008, Omar’s cperative, ReBuilders Surce, pened its business and began selling cnstructin supplies — at reasnable prices — t neighbrhd builders and hme wners. With the help f city fficials, he als began planning a new training prgram t help lcal residents learn the skills t get gd jbs that help the envirnment and even start their wn cperatives. Wrkers were trained t carefully take buildings apart s that things like drs and windws can be reused instead f being smashed and sent ff t a landfill. Decnstructing buildings this way culd be a huge industry with many gd jbs fr peple wh need them.
“If yu have a use fr smething,” Omar says, “it’s n lnger waste.”
24. Why is the Suth Brnx mentined in the first paragraph?
A. T serve as the backgrund infrmatin. B. T aruse readers’ interest.

C. T make mney frm garbage.
D. T increase cperatin amng neighbrs.
26. Which f the fllwing wrds best describe Omar?
A. Idealistic and business-minded.B. Practical and self-fcused.
C. Creative and actin-riented.D. Devted and irn-hearted.
27. Which saying might interpret Omar’s actin?

Fr generatins, we’ve spent the first third f ur lives acquiring the cllege degrees we need t find jbs. These degrees are the stamps n ur prfessinal passprts that pave the way fr the remaining tw-thirds f ur jurney. Hwever, the future f wrk wn’t be abut cllege degrees, it’ll be abut jb skills.
Accrding t the Wrld Ecnmic Frum, ver ne billin jbs, almst ne-third f all jbs wrldwide, are likely t be transfrmed by technlgy in the next decade. We’ve already seen this happen. Think f the apps yu use t shp, track rders and simply stay infrmed. The stres need t keep them up and running at all hurs, day after day, all year rund, meaning they need thse wh can analyze and secure custmer data.
In these and ther similar situatins, peple are the rganizing frce making sure technlgy wrks the way we want it t. This means a quick rise in new kinds f digital jbs. Accrding t the Frum’s Jbs f Tmrrw reprt, there’ll be a rapid influx f rles at the frefrnt f the data and AI ecnmy, as well as new rles in engineering, clud cmputing and prduct develpment. These jbs need talent with relevant skills, and imprtantly these skills can be learnt even by thse withut cllege degrees.
Shifting ur fcus frm degrees t skills will mean transitining (过渡) t always-n skills-based educatin and emplyment rganizatins that acknwledge nt just certificatin but fitness-fr-jb and emplyment as utcmes. In recent years, several cmpanies have fcused n cntinuus learning fr the wrkfrce — the trend will becme strnger.
When it cmes t skills, emplyers lk fr mre than just technical skills. Cmpanies want peple with an eye fr detail, creative prblem-slving skills, a cllabrative(协作的)mindset and an ability t handle cmplex issues. These als are skills that can be learnt. Anyhw, lifelng learners with ever relevant skills will be in greater demand in the wrkplace.
Hw des technlgy influence the future jbs?
It calls fr higher demands fr degrees.
It makes many jbs less challenging.
It cnnects them with degrees clsely.
It reduces their dependence n degrees.
What des the underlined wrd “influx” in paragraph 3 prbably mean?
Change. B. Recvery. C. Decline. D. Increase.
What will future emplyers value mst cncerning their staff?
Their traditinal technical skills. B. Their cnstant learning abilities.
C. Their certificatin-based educatin. D. Their desire t start their wn business.
What might be the best title fr the text?
Skills Are Different Frm Degrees
Skills Are Mre Vital fr Future Wrk
Degrees Will Shape the Future f Wrk
Degrees Will Be Mre Cmpetitive

As the sun shines, peple will flck t parks t breathe the fresh air. But air pllutin is wrsening in many places arund the wrld.
Unfrtunately, in the western traditin, neither materialist nr idealist thereticians give enugh cnsideratin t this basic cnditin fr life. As fr pliticians, despite prpsing restrictins n envirnmental pllutin, they have nt yet called fr it t be made a crime. Wealthy cuntries are even allwed t pllute if they pay fr it.
But is ur life wrth anything ther than mney? And why d we find it mre difficult t get the clean air? D the wds, which are ften described as “the lungs f the planet”, n lnger ffer us the gift f breathable air by releasing xygen? N! In fact, they d give ff the xygen, but their capacity t renew the air plluted by industry has lng reached its limit. If we lack the air necessary fr a healthy life, it is because we have filled it with chemicals and weakened the ability f plants t regenerate it. As we knw, rapid defrestatin cmbined with the massive burning f fssil fuels is an explsive recipe fr a permanent disaster.
The plant wrld urges us in silence that it’s time fr us t care fr ur breath and put emphasis n the interdependence which exists between ur humans and the plant wrld. We will have access t clean air nly when humans learn t share life, bth with each ther and with plants. This task is bth ethical and plitical because it can be fulfilled nly when each takes it upn himself and nly when it is accmplished tgether with thers. The lessn taught by plants is that sharing life expands and enhances the sphere(范围) f the living, while dividing life int s-called natural r human resurces reduces it. We must cme t see the air, the plants and urselves as the cntributrs t the preservatin f life and grwth, rather than prductive ptentialities at ur dispsal. Perhaps then we wuld finally begin t live, rather than being cncerned with bare survival.
32. The western pliticians are accused by the authr because they ______.
A. give pririty t wealthy cuntries.
B. dn’t prtect rdinary peple’s right.
C. fail t pass laws t limit envirnmental pllutin.
D. attach imprtance t thery rather than practical actin.
33. What is paragraph 3 f the text mainly abut?
A. Our relatinship with the plant wrld.
B. Large-scale defrestatin acrss the wrld.
C. The capacity f plants t renew plluted air.
D. The reasns hidden behind the serius air pllutin.
34. Hw can humans accmplish the gal f prtecting the planet?
A. By shwing respect fr plants.B. By pling their effrts tgether.
C. By preserving all frms f life.D. By using all natural resurces.
35. What des the authr suggest in rder nt just t survive?
A. Expanding the sphere f the living.B. Cntrlling the resurces.
C. Develping nature’s ptentials.D. Sharing life with Mther Nature.
