Tyler and I stopped by our corner store. A few police cars caught Tyler’s attention. “Mom, can I use

my allowance money and buy the policemen some doughnuts to say ‘thank you’?” he asked.

“Certainly!” I said, feeling proud that I was achieving my aim to raise my children to be grateful,

tender

-

hearted and caring.

After we left the store, Tyler asked a question that would change our lives and the lives of countless

others forever.

“Why were the police so happy about the doughnuts?”

I explained some people are not always friendly to police officers. Tyler was very sad to hear this,

and instead of shrugging it off, he said that he was going to thank every cop in America and buy them

each a doughnut!

I was shocked, but it never occurred to me to say “no”. In fact, I thought it was an excellent but

unachievable

idea.

I

suggested

many

other

options,

but

nothing

was

enough

for

him

on

the

newfound

mission (

使命

).

I didn’t know how to put this passion into action, but I knew one thing: Tyler had found his purpose,

and it was my duty to help him.

I e

-

mailed our local office and asked if Tyler could host a thank

-

you

event for them. They were delighted. At the event, they called Tyler “The Donut Boy”, a name that has

become known throughout the nation.

Then we kept planning thank

-

you events and many caring people joined in. We were invited to TV

stations, and flew to Washington, D.C. for National Police Week. It has been three years since a simple

act of kindness sparked a wonderful idea in an eight

-

year

-

old boy,

In forty

-

eight states, more than 90,000 doughnuts have been delivered so far, with no end in sight.

We’re made memories that will last a lifetime, but most importantly, we have served those who serve us

daily and made our mark on this world.

24. What quality of Tyler made the author feel proud?

A. Kindness.

B. Honesty.

C. Confidence.

D. Independence.

25. How did the author react to Tyler’s wish to thank all the police at first?

A. She tried to change his idea.

C. She praised him for his ambition.

26. What can we infer about Tyler?

A. He is eight years old.

C. He’s influenced many people.

27. What conclusion can we draw from the text?

A. Well begun, half done.

C. God helps those who help themselves.

B. Strike while the iron is hot.

D. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.

We’re

drowning

in

plastic.

If

you

want

to

reduce

your

own

contribution

to

the

plastic

pollution

problem, recycling might seem like an easy solution.

But what happens after you clean out those plastic containers and pour them into a recycling bin?

Unfortunately, the outcome isn’t as rosy as many people think; recycling is unlikely to give plastic to

-

go

containers new life. “Of all the waste produced in 2017, only 8.4% of it eventually got recycled. It’s not

that consumers aren’t motivated to recycle or that they don’t have ready access to recycling programs; the

United

States

simply

doesn’t

have

the

proper

facilities

(

设施

),”

said John Hocevar,

a

marine

biologist

with Greenpeace USA.

A recent report surveyed the United States’ 367 materials recovery facilities—the facilities that sort

our recycling—and found only plastic bottles were regularly recycled. The fate of most other types of

plastic such as packaging usually ends up being buried or burnt.

Not all plastic is created equal. If you turn over a transparent plastic bottle, like those used to hold

water,

you’ll

notice

a

number

“1”

inside

a

triangular

recycling

symbol.

Non

-

transparent

jugs,

like

the

kind that hold milk, get a “2”. At materials recovery facilities, or MRF’s, plastics

get sorted based on

these numbers, which indicate how recyclable they are.

Numbers 1 and 2 are relatively recyclable. Recycling gets more difficult with higher numbers, called

“mixed plastic”. This waste makes up around 69% of all the plastic we use. It’s much more expensive to

process than numbers 1 and 2.

B. He has become world

-

famous.

D. His mission has been completed.

B. She told him it was impossible.

D. She expressed her doubt about it.

So what the United States needs is facilities equipped to process other kinds of plastic. But Hocevar

came up with a different solution: “The really simple answer is that we have to stop making so much

throwaway plastic.”

That said, is recycling worth it? For bottles labeled (

贴标签

) “1” or “2”, the answer is “yes”. There’s

also

a

growing

market

for

plastics

labeled

“5”.

For

other

numbers,

Hocevar’s

answer

was

simple:

a

resounding (

响亮的

) “no” on numbers 3, 4, 6 and 7.

28. Which problem is the USA facing according to the text?

A. People don’t know the best way to recycle.

B. Ready recycling programs are not accessible.

C. People lack awareness about plastic recycling.

D. There isn’t suitable equipment for plastic recycling.

29. What may John Hocevar think of plastic recycling in the USA?

A. Productive.

B. Promising.

C. Unsatisfying.

D. Controversial.

30. What information can the numbers on plastic bottles convey?

A. Whether it is easy to recycle them.

B. The recycling technology they need.

C. They places where they were produced.

D. Which dustbin we should put them into.

31. What should we do with plastic according to Hocevar?

A. Give up the use of plastic.

B. Develop more cheaper facilities.

C. Only recycle plastics labeled 1 to 5.

D. Reduce the production of mixed plastic.

Sometimes, you just can’t say no to another spoonful of ice cream and maybe one more after that.

Why not? You deserve it.

There’s no need to beat yourself up about it later. The truth is that you were probably bound to do

that from the very first spoonful. That’s because there is a switch in your brain, and for whatever reason,

it can get stuck in the “on” position.

According to a new study, this impulse (

) control may come down to a very specific circuit (
