Pat set herself a task to clear the plastic from 52 beaches in Cornwall and Devon. The former teacher jumped into action after watching a film called A Plastic Ocean, which described the range of plastic pollution damaging the world's oceans and killing sea life.“It was really life-changing for me ," says Pat. "Until that point, I hadn't realized there was a problem with plastic in the ocean. I went home from the theater and was really bothered. We have been consuming so much plastic that we are causing an ocean crisis. I said to myself 'I've got to do something about it."From January 1 until December 31, 2018, Pat cleaned one beach every week. Yet even with the year over and her task completed, she hasn't stopped.

According to scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the US, it might be artificial (人工的）leaves.Natural leaves are able to change sunlight and water into energy, which is known as photosynthesis （光合作用）.Now researchers have found a way to imitate this process.The artificial leaf developed by Daniel Nocera and his colleagues at MIT can be seen as a special silicon chip with catalysts （催化剂）,Similar to natural leaves, it can split water into hydrogen and oxygen when put into a bucket of water. The hydrogen and oxygen gases are then stored in a fuel cell （电池）,using those two materials to produce electricity, located either on top of a house or beside the house.Though the leaf is only about the shape of a poker card, scientists claimed that it is promising to be an inexpensive source of electricity in developing countries. "One can imagine villages in India and Africa not long from now purchasing an affordable basic power system based on this technology；' said an American scientist,Nocera.An artificial leaf is not a new idea. The first artificial leaf was invented in 1997 but was too expensive and unstable for practical use. The new leaf, however, is made of cheap materials, easy to use and highly stable. In laboratory studies, Nocera showed that an artificial leaf could operate continuously for at least 45 hours.The wonderful improvements come from Nocera's recent discovery of several powerful new, inexpensive catalysts. These catalysts make the energy transformation inside the leaf more efficient with water and sunlight. Right now the new leaf is about 10 times more effective at carrying out photosynthesis than a natural one. Besides, the device can run in whatever water is available. This is important for some countries that don't have access to pure water.Hopefully, each home could have access to the new application in the future.61. The purpose of this article is to .A. introduce a new kind of deviceB. ask people to do the researchC. advertise the new productD. show the process of photosynthesis62. Which of the following is NOT the advantage of the new leaf?A. It's low in cost.B. It's small in size.C. It has a wonderful fuel cell.D. It's convenient for people to use.63 . What conclusion can be drawn from the text?A. Nocera thought the new leaf is expensive for developing countries.B. Villages in Africa have benefited a lot from the new invention.C. Silicon chip can help the new leaf work more effectively.D. The equipment doesn't necessarily operate in pure water.64. What's the writer's attitude towards the new device?A. Negative.B. Optimistic.C. Doubtful. D, Uncertain.65. According to the text, what will take place in the future?A. Natural leaves will take the place of artificial leaves,B Scientists will develop more ways to produce energy.C The new invention could be widely used in the future.D. Developing countries will contribute more to the research.DTo grow sugary dates in the sand, Siwa's farmers must first make the desert suitable for farming. An oasis （绿洲） in Egypt, Siwa has been home to humans for thousands of years. Since ancient times, the oasis has hosted farms producing some of the most valuable dates in Egypt, and sugary dates have appeared on Egyptians, tables.The desert environment in Siwa is not quite fit for plants to grow. For example, the water there contains much salt. However, with local people's efforts, the Siwa oasis contains complex agricultural fields, where date trees, crops and other plants grow in harmony. That impressed me a lot during my visit to the oasis. To make a new piece of field, farmers first remove the top soil and replace it with a mixture of sand and waste matter from animals. The first plants are medicinal plants. Then, farmers plant date trees and olive trees. These farming skills are passed down from generation to generation.To grow date trees is demanding. And it takes 10 years for a new date tree to mature, but once it does, thetree produces generous fruit: around 110 pounds of dates per year. Each farmer picks dates with the skilled hands. They climb the trees using nothing more than a belt. In total, Siwa grows more than 25,000 tons of dates from 280,000 trees per year.The dates can be eaten fresh, or made dry. Every part of the date tree is significant in Siwa, from leaves made into beds and boxes to wood used to build houses. And then, of course, there's the fruit itself. The dates can be cooked with goat meat or mixed with eggs for breakfast. They can also be mixed with flour, water, and olive oil, and boiled slowly to make a local dessert.Local farmers once developed many unique date varieties, which their camels carried to Cairo. But later many of those varieties perished. And today only several major varieties remain and some have become quite rare and been at risk. The 1985 construction of a road in the oasis made the survival of local agricultural tradition even tougher.66. What can we learn about sugary dates from Paragraph 1?A. They can adapt to tough environment.B. They have existed for a long time,C. They're introduced to Egypt from abroad.D' They're the most valuable fruit in Egypt67. What impressed the author a lot during his visit to Siwa?A. The great variety of plants grown there,B. The hard but happy life of local people.C. The great complexity of the local agriculture.D. The local farmers5 wisdom and contribution to farming.68. What do the figures mentioned in Paragraph 3 show?A . It's worthwhile to make an effort to grow date trees?；B. It's easy for farmers to pick dates from the trees；C. It costs a lot to grow date trees in the basis.D. It's necessary to develop agriculture in Siwa,69. What's Paragraph 4 mainly about?A. People's preference for dates.B. The introduction to local food,C. The usage of date trees' different parts.D. The locals' high expectations of date trees,70- What does the underlined word “perished” in the last paragraph probably mean?A. Died out.B. Spread out.C. Got created.D.
