18、a team of researchers in Melbourne may have the solution. Theyve discovered that adding millions of discarded face masks to road-paving (铺路) mixtures would actually lower the cost of the road, while preventing billions of them from landfills. Just one kilometer of road would need three million masks

19、, and the polypropylene (聚丙烯) plastic used to make single-use surgical face masks also increased the flexibility and durability of the road. The new material is a mixture of about 2% torn masks, with recycled concrete aggregate (RCA)a material obtained from waste concrete and other minerals from des

20、troyed buildings. This recycled material was found in the study to be ideal for two of the four layers generally required to create roadways.

28、g only to post photos on social media for likes. After the “outfit (装束) of the day” makes it online, they return it to the store.
