A mother, Carrie Cort, 51, from Sussex, and her nine-year-old son have been named the UK’s most environmentally friendly family after winning an award for their environmental achievements. Now every aspect of her life is environmentally friendly, from her son Adam’s birthday parties to her clothing, and she recycles everything from empty pens to milk bottle tops. “Changing our family lifestyle to green has saved us around £ 11, 000 every year, which has given us more financial stability,” Carrie says. “Living green has made us healthier and I feel younger now. It is fun seeing what you can make with unwanted or broken things. Growing your own food is great exercise, good for wildlife, and the food is much more nutritious and tastier.” “My concern for the way we humans are treating the planet was really roused in 2008 when Adam was born. When he arrived, I suddenly had this huge, greater awareness of the kind of planet we’re bringing our children into though I learnt something about it in university.” She began going to talks, reading books, watching documentaries and attending green meetings in order to educate herself in the details of green living. Carrie set up the local campaign group Sussex Green Living six years after her son’s birth. Later, she gave up her high-powered job, as she ran a video company with her brother, to do her job full-time. Today, she organizes talks and workshops. She runs a repair café, where people can bring everything to be fixed. Her recycling program helps people reuse wastes. Toothpaste tubes, for example, which Carrie sends to the Philippines, are turned into purses by an organization. “My goal is to inspire more people to lead greener, more environmentally friendly lives, to enable us to live in greater harmony with nature, now and for future organizations. I achieve this using various Sussex Green Living communication programs and working with other organizations who have the same goals and values.” 【1】How did Carrie feel about her environmentally friendly lifestyle? A. unwanted. B. unhealthy. C. expensive. D. economical. 【2】Which of the following is true about Carrie? A. She made good preparations for living green. B. She recycled what people ignored for fun. C. She does daily exercise by growing food. D. She majored in planet protection in university. 【3】When did Carrie begin to form her environmentally friendly lifestyle? A. After winning an award. B. After giving birth to her son. C. After being stuck in poverty. D. After attending green meetings 【4】What does Carrie rely on to make her achievements? A. Her repair café and workshops. B. Her own programs and others’ work. C. Her well-paid job and her brother’s support. D. Her independence of realizing her green dream. |

The alarm sounds. Students swing their backpack over their shoulder, board the school bus, make their way to their homeroom and the bell rings— school is back. But for more homes in America, school looks more like students waking up, making their way to the dining room or home office, setting up laptops and learning in the comfort of home. Virtual(虚拟的)schooling, described as “a public school that offers only instruction in which students and teachers are separated by time and/or place, and interaction occurs via computers and/or telecommunications(电信)technologies”, has increased over the past decade. According to the National Education Policy Center, enrollments(注册人数)in virtual schools was 278,518 between the 2015 — 2016 school year and the 2016 — 2017 school year increased by 17,000. For Arizona Virtual Academy, a full-time online public K-12 school, they use K12 Inc. curriculums. K12 Inc. serves students in all 50 states and more than 100 countries with digital learning platforms and technology, providing online education. “We always are improving our platforms and the technology that we use to make sure that we’re keeping up with the changing trends, not only with education but also with technology,” Dr. Kelly Van Sande said. Another piece of new technology they’ve rolled out is a new app where parents can find virtual schools available in their area. Carrie Faulkner chose to enroll two of her children in Arizona Virtual Academy. She says they’ve done schooling online in Chicago, in California, at restaurants and on her cousin’s floor in Kansas. “It doesn’t matter whether he (her son) is on the couch, in his bed or at the kitchen table, he can do schooling wherever he wants to,” Faulkner said. “I wish they had it for me back when I was in school. That would have been awesome.” 【1】Why does the author compare the two kinds of schooling in the first paragraph? A. To attack real schooling. B. To give an example of virtual schooling. C. To introduce the topic “virtual schooling”. D. To describe vividly students’ going to school. 【2】How many students attended virtual schools during the 2016 — 2017 school year? A. 295, 518 B. 17, 000. C. 278, 518. D. 147, 759. 【3】What can we infer about Arizona Virtual Academy? A. They provide both online and offline education. B. They’re intended for students in the United States. C. Their new app lets people find schools worldwide. D. Their platforms and technology are very advanced. 【4】What is Carrie Faulkner’s attitude to virtual schooling? A. Ambiguous. B. Cautious C. Supportive. D. Disapproving. |

An experimental cleanup device called RemoveDEBRIS has successfully cast a net around a dummy (仿真的) satellite, imitating a technique that could one day collect spaceborne garbage. The test, which was carried out this week, is widely believed to be the first successful demonstration of space cleanup technology, experts told CNN. And it symbolizes an early step toward solving what has already been a critical issue: junk in space. Millions of pieces of junk are turning around in orbit, the result of 50 years of space travel and few regulations to keep space clean. At orbital speeds, even a small bit of paint crashing with a satellite can cause critical damage. Various companies have plans to send thousands of new satellites into low-Earth orbit, already the most crowded area. The RemoveDEBRIS experiment is run by a company and researchers led by the U. K.’s Surrey Space Center and includes Airbus, Airbus-owned Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd. and France’s ArianeGroup. Guglielmo Aglietti, the director of Surrey Space Center, said that an operational version of the RemoveDEBRlS technology would cast a net that remains fastened to the main satellite so the debris can be dragged out of orbit. It could target large pieces of junk, including dead satellites up to 10 meters long. The RemoveDEBRIS satellite will conduct a few more experiments in the coming months, including testing navigation features that could help guide the satellite to a specific piece of debris. Jonathan McDowell, an astrophysicist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, said the success of this week’s experiment was exciting, but he cautioned against “over- publicizing” it. There are still enormous barriers to clear before operational cleanup tasks are underway, he said, and the most discouraging is figuring out how to fund such projects. Aglietti, the Surrey professor who helped lead the RemoveDEBRIS project, said “The challenge will lie in persuading the relevant authorities to sponsor these tasks.” Aglietti said he hopes RemoveDEBRIS will conduct a few cleanup tasks per year, targeting the largest pieces of junk in the most crowded orbits. 【1】What is the use of the RemoveDEBRIS satellite? A. Demonstrating space technology. B. Imitating a developing technique. C. Collecting wastes existing in space. D. Symbolizing great progress in space. 【2】How does the RemoveDEBRlS satellite work? A. By throwing a net to take the junk from orbit. B. By fastening it to the main satellite tightly. C. By dragging satellites up to 10 meters long. D. By targeting large pieces of junk carefully. 【3】What does the underlined word “sponsor” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Accomplish. B. Support. C. Oppose. D. Provide. 【4】What’s the best title for the text? A. The RemoveDEBRIS Project Is Perfect B. How RemoveDEBRIS Is Invented in the Lab C. Why the RemoveDEBRIS Satellite Is Invented D. Satellite Collects Space Junk for the First Time |

Babies have the charm to melt anybody’s heart instantly; no one escapes the twinkling eyes or the innocent smile. Just their presence will cheer you up, make you forget your worries and tempt you to indulge into their world. 【1】 Though I don’t have any answer to the question, I wonder as to what makes their aura so desirable. And I think there is something we can learn from the young ones. Forgive and Forget Babies can laugh and giggle all day because they don’t keep hatred against anyone. 【2】 Do you think they’ve constructed an evil plan against you because you refused them candy last time? Probably not, life moved on and so did they. So why do we hold on to our past and refuse to let go of the emotional baggage? Does it do us any good except prevent us from laughing to the fullest? 【3】 Endless questions of young kids can sometimes be enough to drain the adult mind. They are always busy wondering how things work or why things are the way they are, leaving no room for boredom. Their curiosity gives them an exponential learning curve; they pick up new things quickly and do not refuse to change. Unconditional Love 【4】 They don’t judge you before they come running into your knees and they don’t walk away if you don’t give them the same in return. They have no expectations from you and simply do what their heart desires. If you want a hug, they’ll give you a hug; if you want two, they’ll give you two. So how does the adult world become so materialistic that we decide what we give based on what we think we might receive? Living life to the fullest is not a difficult task; you just need to have the right attitude and an open mind. 【5】 A. Keep smile every day B. Never-ending Curiosity C. What can we do to free from these worries? D. Why do we adore the young ones so much? E. So don’t envy the peaceful life of a baby, start living it yourself! F. Kids have a hug and a kiss for anyone and everyone who wants one. G. Their heart is pure and their mind empty to laugh out loud and enjoy the moment. |
