By the year 2050 that number is expected to rise to 3 b
19、illion tons. The World Bank estimates that the largest amount of trash today, about 44 percent, is plastic. But we often have to buy packaged goods. And often that packaging is made of plastic.Now, that may be changing. A new environmentally-friendly shopping model was recently launched at the World
20、 Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. This shopping model, called Loop, aims to replace throwaway containers with reusable ones.Loop is the idea of Terra Cycle, an American-based recycling company. Its chief, Tom Szaky. told the Associated Press (AP) that “removing plastics from the ocean is not en
21、ough.” He said the point is to get away from single-use packages. Szaky said that Loop is the future of shopping. But it comes from an idea of the past.He compared it to the “milkman model” of the 1950s in the United States. Back then, someone brought milk to your doorstep in glass bottles and then
22、left with empty bottles. These could be cleaned and used again. The result is zero-waste.Jennifer Morgan from the environmental non-profit organization Greenpeace also joined in the discussion about Loop at Davos. She said that “Greenpeace welcomes the aim of the Loop Alliance to move away from thro
23、waway culture and disposability.” But Morgan questioned whether companies worldwide are ready to change their business models.Loop is set to launch later this year in three eastern U.S. states, and also in Paris, France and some of the surrounding area. Then Loop plans to expand to the U.S. West Coa

These trees, with their strangely-shaped, wind-beaten limbs(枝干), can live up to 5,000 years. But experts worry that a warming climate in some areas may threaten its futur
27、e.Researchers say warmer weather is permitting a similar kind of tree, the limber pine, to take over good growing places from the ancient bristlecone. They say the tree is being crowded out of mountainous areas where it grows.“The bristlecone pine is the oldest individually growing organism,” resear
28、chers say. They grow in high mountain forests in eastern California, Nevada and Utah. In those mountains, the trees face high winds and extreme temperatures, which leave them with twisted limbs and shapes. “Even in such tough conditions,” Brian Smithers, a researcher at the University of California,
29、 said, “the limber pine is taking all the good spots.”The limber pine is the bristlecones distant relative and competitor. It can also live a long timeup to 2,000 years. And it is usually found at lower altitudes, where temperatures are warmer. However, according to a three-year study which centered
30、 on trees that have started growing in the last 50 years in Californias White Mountains, most of the trees growing at higher altitudes were limber pines.Scientists compared the competing species to two o1d men in a very slow race up a mountainside. This race between such slow-growing trees takes tho
31、usands of years. They say climate change is causing the competition.Smithers said the bristlecone pines are not in danger of disappearing. But he assumes they could be crowded out of some places where they have grown for thousands of years.The researchers say the findings show how climate change can
32、 affect the two kinds of trees. The information, they say, can help scientists understand more complex forests.1、Whats the function of Paragraph 1?ATo introduce a topic. BTo summarize the whole passage.CTo describe the appearance of a tree. DTo praise the hard work of the experts.2、What does the und
33、erlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?AThere will be older trees sent out of those mountains.BThere will be more places covered with bristlecone pines.CThere will be better limber pines replacing the ancient ones.DThere will be fewer bristlecone pines growing in those areas.3、According to the passage
34、, the reason why limber pines can grow at higher altitudes is_.Athe high winds Bthe difficult conditionsCthe changing climate Dthe extreme temperatures4、What is the researchers attitude towards the future of the bristlecone pine?APositive. BConcerned.CEnthusiastic. DIndifferent.24(8分) The Super Bowl
35、 is the annual championship game of the National Football League (NFL) The game is the culmination(高潮)to a season that begins in the late summer of the previous calendar year Normally, Roman numerals are used to identify each game, rather than the year in which it is held For example, Super Bowl I w
36、as played on January 15, 1967, following the 1966 regular season The single exception to this rule is Super Bowl 50, which was played on February 7, 2016, following the 2015 regular season The next game, Super Bowl LII, scheduled for February 4, 2018, will follow the 2017 regular seasonThe game was
37、created as part of a merger(合并) agreement between the NFL and its then rival league, the American Football League (AFL) Currently, the Pittsburgh Steelers have the most Super Bowl victories, with six The New England Patriots have the most Super Bowl appearances, with nineThe day (usually the first S
38、unday in February) on which the Super Bowl is played, now considered as an unofficial American national holiday, is called Super Bowl Sunday It is the second-largest day for US food consumption, after Thanksgiving Day In addition, the seven most-watched broadcasts in US television history are Super
39、Bowls In 2015, Super Bowl XLIX attracted an audience of 114.4millionBecause of the high viewership, commercial airtime during the Super Bowl broadcast is the most expensive of the year, leading to companies regularly developing their most expensive advertisements for this broadcast As a result, watc

43、the annual championship game of AFLClaunches a new season of the National Football League every yearDhas frequently been the most watched American television broadcast of the year25(10分) American families are accustomed to settling in faraway places, which has been a national phenomenon. Decades of
44、data, including a more recent Gallup study, characterizes the US as one of the most geographically mobile countries in the world. “About one in four US adults(24 percent) has reported moving within the country in the past five years.” the reported noted. With the exception of Finns(23 percent) and N
45、orwegians(22 percent), Americans move considerably more than their European peers.Though some may move for love or family, the major reason why Americans choose to move around is, unsurprisingly, related to work. Citing data from the Current Population Survey, a post on the blog of the New York Fed
46、noted that between 58 and 2013, “slightly more than half of interstate(州际的) migrants said they moved for employmentrelated reasonsa category that includes moves undertaken for new jobs, job transfers, and easier commutes(通勤).”The seeking of opportunity, particularly for an immigrant nation, is a nat
47、ional mythology(神话) as well as an emotional attachment to work. A new working paper analyzed by Ben Steverman at Bloomberg suggests that workers in the US now “put in almost 25 percent more hours than Europeans” in a given year. This figure has steadily risen since the 30s, when the hours logged by
48、workers in Western Europe and the US were roughly the same.There are, of course, some internal factors. The US is much vaster than most European countries, plus it boasts(拥有) a common language. It is considered to be a sign of an efficient labor market that US workers can be persuaded to move to reg
49、ions where there is a steady growth in jobs, such as the Sun Belt in recent years. And while American workers often have fewer labor protections than their European counterparts, as a report by the World Bank noted in 2012, American “labor laws give employers the power to fire, hire, or relocate(重新安
50、置) workers according to their needs”, a flexibility that is thought to aid economic growth. The World Band report added that the occupation of the average US employee in 66 was 4 years, compared to 10 years in the European Union.Nevertheless, while Americans remain excessively mobile, FaithKarahan a
51、nd Darious Li at the New York Fed are the latest to note that US workers are moving around less than before. During the 40s, 3 percent of workingage Americans relocated to a different state each year; that figure had been cut in half by 2010. “While part of the decline can be attributed to the Great
52、 Recession,” the authors suggest, “this_phenomenon took place over the course of several decades and is not necessarily related to the economic conditions.”So what accounts for this phenomenon? A roundup of theories by Brad Plumer at The Washington Post included the aging of the US workforce, the fu
53、rther rise of twoincome households, the burdens of real estate, evolving workplace culture, as well as the flat line of wages, which makes moving away for a job, on average, a less rewarding financial proposition.Karahan and Li put much stock in the effects of an aging workforce, to which they attri
54、bute at least half of the decline in interstate migration. “In short, a young individual today is moving less than a young person did in the 40s because of the higher presence of older workers,” they write, suggesting that employers have shifted their employment tactics(策略) to adapt to the changing
55、demographics(人口统计数据) of the workforce. Needless to say, movies about this era in American life, in which fewer people set out to start lives in wideranging places, will probably be much less exciting.1、According to the passage, in the past five years, Americans have moved _.Arelatively less than the
56、 BritishBless frequently than ItaliansCslightly more than NorwegiansDconsiderably more than Finns2、What can we infer from Paragraphs 2 and 3?AAmericans choose to move mainly for work and family.BAmericans have a very strong interest in work.CAmericans invested more time in work than Europeans in 35.
57、DAmericans tended to move to Europe between 58 and 2013.3、Which of the following is NOT the reason why American workers move more than their European peers?AThere is a common language in the US.BThe US is much vaster than most European countries.CAmerican labor laws give employers more freedom to de
58、al with them.DThey are offered more efficient labor protections.4、The underlined part “this phenomenon” in Paragraph 5 refers to _.Athe Great RecessionBthe decline of workingage Americans interstate migrationCthe reduction in the number of workingage AmericansDAmericans tendency to remain mobile5、Ho
59、w do American employers deal with the aging workforce according to the passage?ABy sticking to their previous policies.BBy adjusting to it.CBy improving their employees job skills.DBy raising employment standard.6、As to the current situation of Americans migration, the author might feel _.AcuriousBs
