Throughout the day, rumors (传 言)warned that the newest employee froni each depar linen I would be laid off. I was the newest one in the training department.My boss appeared. "You probably know we' re cutting back, “ he said. Administration wants us to offer outplacement classes to help those employees find other jobs, showing them how to act in an interview, for example. ” “Fine, " I answered unwillingly, not knowing what else to say.I decided to go home early that day. In the hall, I met the lady who brought us cookies every Friday. She was a little woman with gray hair. Only her head and the top of her green apron were visible over the cart （小车）loaded with cleaning supplies. At least she had a job!At the final meeting, laid-off workers formed a line at the door. A colleague whispered, "I can' t believe our Cookie Lady is being laid off. We' 11 miss her as much as we' 11 miss her cookies. " When the colleague spoke to her in Spanish, I knew my classes would be useless for her and I realized how much better off was than this poor woman.I decided to do something for her. I wrote to a newspaper expressing how I felt about the unselfishness of the Cookie Lady who needed a job. A few days later, my article appeared in the newspaper and the Cookie Lady was allowed to stay in her position. On the same day, I received a letter, which seemed so unlikely that I read it twice.

Producing food that people don, t consume swallows up roughly 20% of America' s cropland and agricultural water, and produces greenhouse gas emissions （排放物）equal to 37 million passenger vehicles each year. Yet, 37 million Americans lack consistent access to adequate and nutritious food.NRDC' s Food Matters Initiative partners cities to confront food waste. Food Matters is piloting all-round, cutting-edge strategies that are easy to follow and share. The first two strategies-and arguably the most critical ones-are to estimate a local baseline level of food waste and then assess the potential for rescuing surplus food. A baseline is necessary in order to understand the scale and natural of the problem. It is also a prerequisite （先决条件）to assessing any progress made, which will help in form future program developnienl.Using a calculator tool NRDC developed based on the Food Matters research models , the Atlanta' s Mayor, s Office of Resilience had a better understanding of the qualities of wasted food and where it was likely occurring. This allowed the city to focus the attention on the solutions that were more closely related to the situation in Atlanta.As in many cities across the U. S. , much of the food wasted in Atlanta occurs in households and consumer-facing businesses such as restaurants. Armed with this information, the Mayor' s Office of Resilience, creates a restaurant challenge encouraging restaurants to work on the entire system of reduction, rescue, and recycling. After 90 days and participation from 6 restaurants at Atlanta' s Hartsfield Jackson airport, the program rescue 21,000 meals and saved owners over $62000.Atlanta' s restaurant challenge is one of a handful of examples where cities have engaged（吸弓I） consumer-facing food businesses to reduce their food waste. New York led the charge with a Mayor' s challenge to restaurants . Denver recently completed a series of neighborhood restaurant challenges. Nashville has an ongoing Mayor? s Food Saver Challenge including not just restaurants but other food businesses as well. Several other cities and countries throughout the country have similar business engagement success stories.28. What are the data mainly about in paragraph 1?A. the harm of food wasteB.the cause of food pollutionC. the importance of food safety D.the solution to food waste.29. How does Atlanta benefit from the calculator tool of NRDC?A. It makes new plans for banning food wasteB. It helps the city better work on the solutions.C.It tests the work efficiency of the governmentD. It increases the potential for recycling food waste.30. What is the restaurant challenge mainly about?A. Inspiring customers to order food based on actual needB. Teaching waiters to deal with food waste in the greener way.C. Encouraging restaurants to reduce food waste in every process .D. Making restaurants compete with each other in waste recycling.31. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Restaurant challenges only work in AmericaB. More and more cities are focusing on food waste .C.Food businesses are the main sources of food waste .D. It is difficult to complete the restaurant challenges.DOver the last several years, Japanese and Korean beauty services have moved over to the North American market, which may partly explain why we' re now seeing activated charcoal （i舌f生炭）in so many products - it has long been used in those countries as a cleaning ingredient （原料）.But there, s another reason for its recent popularity: marketers know we aoe suckers for anything novel. uActivated charcoal is highly popular on the Internet, “ says dietitian Abby Langer. The charcoal in activated charcoal is created by burning carbon-rich materials such as wood and bamboo, turning them into a concentrated black material. Then the charcoal is” activated” by steaming it at high temperatures, which opens up its carbon structure and makes it full of very small holes that can join together dirt, oil, and bacteria on its surface.However, does it really improve beauty and other products? Here' s the thing: despite some stories of clear skin from nutritionists, personal trainers and movie stars, there is no clinical evidence for the effectiveness of activated charcoal as a beauty quality. Likewise, there is no good evidence showing that using charcoal products for health in the mouth will make your breath fresher or teeth whiter. In a CBC story last year, the Canadian Dental Association wouldn' t recommend using charcoal products because they have no proven health benefits, and they may even damage your enamel （the hard white outer layer of your teeth）.Activated charcoal also enjoys a high status in the food industry, being used by restaurants and food brands to turn a long list of food and drinks a deep black color. So before you shell out extra cash for a lemonade with activated charcoal, remember that you' re paying for the look - there' s no scientific evidence for the“ deZox（排毒）“ action it promises.There are some proven uses for this stuff, though. In the emergency room, doctors sometimes feed some activated charcoal to patients who have been poisoned. If it' s done quickly - ideally within minutes but up to an hour after being poisoned, while the poisonous substance is still in the stomach - it prevents the body from absorbing it. So yes, activated charcoal might save your life. However, everyday users should know that it doesn' t combine with alcohol, so it won' t magical erase the effects of late-night drinking. Also, be aware that it doesn' t tell the difference between the bad and the good: it will mix with blood pressure medication pills and get them through your system, too.32. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Are crazy aboutB.Tend to ignoreC. Pretend to knowD. Are doubtful aboutWhats the Canadian Dental Association' s attitude towards activated charcoal Products ?A. Supportive.B. Tolerant.C. Unconcerned.D. Disapproving.33. Which one is a tested use for activated charcoal?A.Controlling blood pressure.B. Keeping food and
