        Lego is considering a brick rental scheme in an attempt to cut down on plastic waste. The Danish toymaker has promised to make all its bricks from sustainable (可持续的) sources by 2030 and is ploughing significant resources into finding alternatives.

        Tim Brooks, vice-president responsible for sustainability, said the company was "totally open" to the idea of a product rental scheme but acknowledged that lost pieces could cause a significant problem. He said the rental scheme was "possible" but admitted there were some "technical barriers", one of which is the complexity of some Lego kits (配套元件), many of which contain thousands of pieces.

        "What are the chances of giving them to an eight-year-old child and getting them all back again?" Mr Brooks added. "There is a lot of technical thinking that needs to be done.

        We are right at beginning of that." Mr Brooks said Lego was exploring several ideas with a view to producing the highest value from products while consuming the least amount of resources. He said many would "probably never see the light of day" and there was no current plan to try a rental scheme.

        Lego has come under increasing pressure to reduce its carbon footprint amid growing international alarm about the impact of plastic waste on the environment. It manufactures 19 billion pieces per year—36,000 a minute——that are made only of plastic while much of the internal packaging is also plastic.

        So far, the only breakthrough has been the development of a line of bricks made from plant-based plastic sourced from sugarcane. The green trees, plants and flowers were first included in Lego sets late last year but account for only one-two percent of the total amount of plastic elements produced. Henrik Ostergaard Nielson, a production supervisor in Lego's factory in Billund, told the New York Times last year: "We need to learn again how to do this"

    1. (1) How will Lego cut down on plastic waste?
      A . By considering a brick rental scheme. B . By producing a new kind of toys instead of bricks. C . By replacing common plastic with a renewable material. D . By investing large amounts of money into market.
    2. (2) What does Tim Brooks expect of the product rental scheme?
      A . It'll cause certain serious problems. B . It'll be of great complexity. C . It'll require more mature technical skills. D . It'll involve much more kits of bricks.
    3. (3) What does the underlined word "many" in Paragraph 4 refer to?
      A . Ideas. B . Values. C . Products. D . Resources.
    4. (4) What can be inferred from the passage?
      A . Lego has to explore a new product to earn a profit. B . A brick rental scheme has been put into mass production. C . plant-abased plastic is environmentally friendly. D . Lego is optimistic about the brick rental scheme.

        A small group of people around the world have started implanting(移植) microchips to link the body and the computer.

        Mr. Donelson and three friends, who had driven 100 miles from their homes in Loockport, New York, to have the implants put in by Dr. Jesse Villemaire, whom they had persuaded to do the work, are part of a small group, about 30 people around the world, who have independently put in microchips into their bodies, according to Web-based reports.

        At a shop William Donelson was having a four-millimeter-wide needle put into his left hand. “I'm set,”he said with a deep breath. He watched as the needle pierced(刺穿) the fleshy webbing between his thumb and a microchip was set under his skin. At last he would be able to do what he had long imagined: strengthen his body's powers through technology.

        By putting the chip inside—a radio frequency identification device (RFID)—Mr. Donelson would have at his fingertips the same magic that makes safety gates open with a knock of a card, and bridge and tunnel traffic flow smoothly with an E-Zpass. With a wave of his hand he plans to connect with his computer, open doors and unlock his car.

        Implanting the chip was relatively simple task but very meaningful to Mr. Doneselson, a 21-year-old computer networking student so interested in the link between technology and the body that he has data-input jacks(数据输入插空) inside his body. They might lead to an imagined future when people can be connected directly into computers. His new chip is enclosed in a glass container no bigger than a piece of rice and has a small memory where he has stored the words “Technology”.

        Some doctors have done the piercing in people's homes, and others have implanted chips in their offices after patients signed forms showing the fact that long-term studies have not been done on their safety. Piercers treat the implants much like any other medical operation steps, instructing people to keep the site dry, and advising them that swelling and redness should last a week.

    根据短文内容,选择最佳答案,并将选定答案的字母标号填在题前括号内。

    1. (1) With a RFID implanted, which of the following will Mr. Donelson be able to do?

      A . Make a safety gate open with a knock of a card. B . Make bridge and tunnel traffic flow smoothly with an E-Zpass. C . Open doors and unlock his car with a wave of his hand. D . Turn his body and brain directly into computers.
    2. (2) The underlined word “they” in paragraph 5 refer to “___________”.

      A . glass containers B . implanted computer chips C . data input jacks D . computer and networking students
    3. (3) Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

      A . High Tech, Under the Skin B . A Needle, So Magic C . Donelson, a Powerful Man D . Data-input Jacks, Inside the Body
    4. (4) We can conclude from the passage that __________________.

      A . Mr. Donelson has made a large sum of money by the piercing. B . the Piercers are people working in the computer field C . the piercing has no side effect and it will make people intelligent D . the long term effects of these implants are not yet known
    5. (5) What will happen to the site on the body after the operation?

      A . There will be swelling and redness. B . The site will be dry. C . Nothing will happen at all. D . The pain will remain for a week.

        Even if trees cannot walk, they are still on the move.

        In parts of the Arctic, entire forests are moving northward. Across the Arctic, temperatures are rising faster than anywhere else in the world. As that happens, the tree line that marks where forests stop and the treeless tundra(冻土地带) starts has been shifting northward. Trees growing along the tree line must protect themselves from the cold wind. To do this, plants tend to grow horizontal(水平的) branches low to the ground. The energy it takes for trees to grow this way means they don't have enough energy to make seeds.

        But as Earth's climate has been warming, trees no longer have to just grow horizontally. Many can instead grow up toward the sky. This takes less energy. And with all the leftover energy. these trees have started producing more seeds. This happens especially in places where the white spruce(白云杉) grows.

        White spruce, which is a North American tree, is quite able to produce a lot of seeds, which can move long distances in the wind. When wind-blown seeds end up on the tundra beyond the tree line, they eventually can sprout(发芽) new trees. This explains how a forest can move. Of course, the process would work only if the tundra were warm enough. But in recent years, the whole planet has been warming.

        New trees will provide shelters for some snow, keeping the sun's rays from making the white surface disappear. Instead, the trees absorb the sun's heat. This warms the surrounding air. The extra warmth encourages even more trees to produce seeds. That further boosts a forest's ability to expand. In addition, more trees will trap more snow, preventing much of it from being blown away. Snow can trap heat in the soil below, which encourages trees to grow. The recent rise of temperature has helped more trees grow. The recent rise of temperatures has helped more trees grow past the tree line. People worry about impacts on the animals that depend on frozen conditions for food and shelter.

    1. (1) What is the main cause of the trees in the Arctic moving northward?
      A . The rising temperature. B . The shrinking of northern tundra. C . The fierce and cold wind. D . The abundant resources in the north.
    2. (2) What does the underlined word“this”in Paragraph 2 mean?
      A . To produce more seeds. B . To move northward. C . To respond to the climate change. D . To protect themselves from the cold wind.
    3. (3) What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
      A . New trees can trap the snow, which may make the soil colder. B . The trapped snow prevents new trees from producing more seeds. C . New trees can make the surrounding air warmer. D . New trees can bring more food and shelter for local animals.
    4. (4) The passage is most probably taken from _______.
      A . a health report B . a science report C . a fashion magazine D . a children's magazine

    Generally speaking, a British is widely regarded as a quiet, shy and conservative person who is1 only among those with whom he is familiar. When a stranger is present, he often seems nervous, 2 embarrassed. You have to take a commuter train any morning or evening to witness the truth of this.
