In 2011,during
his freshman year at the University of Maryland,
Simon was struck
by how much food was thrown
away in the college cafeteria. “ I was shocked to
see
someone buy a full sandwich, eat half of
it, and throw the other half out,”
said Simon.
“It was not the values I grew up with. ”To him,
discarded food was
a “natural goldmine” he
could source to do good.
Four years
later, Simon cofounded Imperfect Produce, a
subscription-based
home-delivery service for
discounted “ugly” fruits and vegetables that are
perfectly good on the inside, but otherwise
rejected from the food supply chain for
their
looks.
“Up to 20% of the fruits and vegetables
grown on farms in America are thrown
away
because the produce doesn’t meet grocery stores’
standards,” said Simon.
“It’s often for
discoloration, scarring on the surface caused by
the fruit rubbing
against a tree limb or an
atypical shape,”he said. “Sometimes it’s the
size. ”Simon, 29,and Chesler,27,decided to
source this “ugly” produce directly
from farms
and deliver it to customers for about 30% less
than conventional grocery
store prices.
“The reason why we created Imperfect Produce
as a direct-to-consumer business
is because
grocery stores didn’t want to partner with
us,”said Simon. “So we
became our own store.
”The San Francisco-based service launched in
August 2015.
Today, Imperfect Produce has more
than 200,000 subscribers in 22 cities. The company
sources its produce from 250 growers
nationwide, and slightly more than half of it
is organic. To date, Simon said the service
has helped recover 40 million pounds
of food
from going to waste.
Simon declined to
disclose income but said this year’s sales are
expected to
double last year’s. The business
is not yet profitable, but he hopes to expand the
service to 40 cities by the end of 2019 and
eventually take the company public at
some
point.
does the underlined word “discarded”
in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Wasted. B.
Rejected. C. Disliked. D. Eaten.
are many
fruits and vegetables wasted?
A. They are not
tasty. B. They are not nutritious.
C. They are
poorly looking. D. They are not good inside.
made Simon create Imperfect Produce as a direct-
to-consumer business?
A. High price offered by
him.
B. The wish to set up his own business.
C. His desire to offer service to
others.
D. Grocery stores’ unwillingness to
cooperate with him.
27 .What can be inferred
about Simon?
A. He wants to help the poor.
B. He thinks a lot about the wasted food.
C. He has expanded his service to 40 cities.
D. He expects to make profits from his
business.

North America’s birds are
disappearing from the skies at a rate that’s
shocking
even to ornithologists (鸟 类 学
家).Since the 1970s, the continent has lost 3
billion birds, nearly 30% of the total, and
even common birds such as sparrows and
blackbirds are in decline, U. S. and Canadian
researchers report this week online
in
Science. The findings raise fears that some
familiar species could go the way
of the
passenger pigeon, a species once so abundant that
its extinction in the early
1900s seemed
unthinkable.
The results, ever done to North
American birds, point to ecosystems in disorder
because of habitat loss and other factors,
researchers say. Yet ecologist Paul
Ehrlich at
Stanford University, California sees some hope in
this new bad news :
“ It might encourage
needed action in view of the public interest in
our feathered
friends. ”
In past decades,
Ehrlich and others have recorded the decline of
particular bird
groups, including migratory
songbirds. All together, they studied 529 bird
species,about three-quarters of all species in
North America, accounting
for more than 90% of
the entire bird population. Rosenberg and his
colleagues report Grassland birds have
declined by 53% since 1970—a loss of 700
million adults in the 31 species studied.
Habitat loss may be to blame.
The familiar
birds that flock by the thousands in suburbs were
not exempt(例
外).“There’s a decline of the
numbers of common birds,” Rosenberg says. His team
determined that 19 common species have each
lost more than 50 million birds since
1970.
Twelve groups, including sparrows, warblers,
finches, and blackbirds, were
particularly hard hit. Even introduced
species that have increased in North America,
such as starlings and house sparrows, are
losing ground.
is happening to North
America’s birds?
A. Most of them are dying
out.
B. They are disappearing quickly.
C.
Some of them are decreasing.
D. They are
raising fears to humans
does Paul Ehrlich
mean?
A. The bad news will bring interest to
the birds.
B. The bad news might alarm people
to take action.
C. North America’s birds need
our help.
D. North America’s birds suffered
great loss.
is the last paragraph mainly
about?
A. Some common birds are also
decreasing.
B. Some birds die from losing
their habitat.
C. The research team found some
unusual things.
D. The research team studied
birds in North America.
which section of a
website may this text appear?
A. Environment.
B. Health.
C. Education. D. Science.
Yellow is usually the color of happy, joyful
emotions. But according to a new
study, not
all people associate the sunshine shade with good
atmosphere.
To find out what factors might
play a role, researchers tested a new hypothesis
(假
设):What if people’s physical surroundings
affect their feelings about certain
colors?
For instance, if someone lived in cold and rainy
Finland, would they feel
differently about the
color yellow from someone who lived near the
Sahara Desert?
The researchers looked at
color-emotion data from an ongoing international
survey
of 6,625 people in 55 countries. The
survey asks participants to rate 12 colors on
how closely they are associated with feelings
including joy, pride, fear and shame.
The team
looked only at the data for yellow, and analyzed
how different
factors—including hours
of sunshine, hours of daylight, and amount of
rainfall—lined up with the emotions people
reported for the color. The two best
predictors of how people felt about yellow
were the annual amount of rainfall ,
and how
far they lived from the equator (赤道),the team
reports this month in the
Journal of
Environmental Psychology.
The farther someone
lived from the equator, the more likely they were
to
appreciate some bright colors: In Egypt,
the likelihood of yellow being associated
with
joy was just 5.7% , whereas in rather cold Finland
it was 87. 7%.In the United
States, with its
moderate climate and amber(黄褐色) waves of grain,
people’s
yellow-joy association levels were
between 60% and 70% .The team also checked whether
associations changed with the season— whether
,for example, people in a certain
country
liked yellow more in the winter than they did in
the summer. The researchers
found that
opinions about color remained fairly constant
year-round—even when the
weather changed, the
data on yellow-joy associations were as good as
gold.
did the researchers survey to test the
hypothesis?
A. People in Finland.
B.
Someone living near the Sahara Desert.
C.
Travelers in the United States.
D. Many people
from different countries
may affect the
emotions associated with yellow most?
A. Hours
of sunshine. C. Amount of rainfall.
B. Hours
of daylight. D. Seasons in a year
34. are
more likely to appreciate bright colors?
A.
People living in warm areas.
B. People growing
yellow grains.
C. People growing up in Egypt.
D. People living far from the equator
is
the text mainly about?
A. Yellow is the color
of happiness and joy.
B. Researchers did a
survey on the color yellow.
C. A study
shows the connection between emotion and yellow
can vary.
D. Different people have different
emotions to the color yellow.

You probably spend a lot of time preparing for
job interviews. But it’s not
just about being
ready with answers to the interviewer’s questions.
36 You should
come prepared with insightful
questions to learn more about the role and to make
sure the company is a good fit.
37
Dompanise are looking woo (争取)candidates in
this job market and want to put
their best
foot forward—but it’s important that you go into
the conversation
knowing what you are looking
for from an employer. Asking what a typical day
looks
like can give you a helpful sense of the
workplace balance and responsibilities.
Ask
about career growth and development
But be
careful with how you ask this question. You don’t
want to come off as
if you are expecting a
promotion before even starting the job. Asking
about employee
support and development
programs can also show how much an employer
invests (投
资)in employee development.
Ask
how to be successful
39,so be sure to ask
about it. To help get a sense of what employers
will be
looking for, try asking something
like: “What does success look like for someone
in this role?” or “How will my performance be
evaluated? ”
Ask autonomous questions
While most interviewers will finish the
meeting asking if you have any questions,
you
don’t have to wait for that moment. 40,ask a
question to get more details.
That not only
shows you are listening, but also
engaged and
want to learn more.
A. Ask what it’s like to
work there
B. The process is a two-way street
C. If you have some important questions
D. We all want to make a living by working
hard
the interviewer says something
interesting or vague
F. Knowing how your
performance is going to be measured is important
G. We all want to work at a place where we
have the opportunity to grow professionally
