if we could use plastic waste to build roads?This is exactly what Toby McCartney has done.In 2019,McCartneys UK-based company,MacRebur,built the worlds first plastic road in Elgin town,Scotland.The plastic waste was made into grains and then mixed with bitumen（沥青）.The road looks just like anyother road.But it has improved strength and is more stretchy（有弹性的）thanks to the plastic.“Our technology can not only help solve the problem of plastic waste but also produce roads that deal betterwith changes in the weather,reducing cracks and holes on the roads J McCartney told the BBC.McCartneys idea came from a trip to India.I saw people in India would put plastic waste into the holes onthe roads and bum it.The plastic would melt down and cover the hole,said McCartney.“I knew that there must be some similarities between the plastic and bitumen,which both come from oil.Thats how I started to think about mixing them J he said.After lots of testing,McCartney found the perfect recipe.And now his company has built many plastic roadsaround the world,from Australia to Europe.A one-kilometer stretch of roads uses about 684,000 plastic bottles or1.8 million plastic bags.The road itself can be recycled at the end of its lifetime.The materials can be reused tobuild new roads.“Were just a small part of ending the plastic problems,but ifs nice to be part of it,“McCartney said.justdont want my daughters to live in a world where there are more plastics in our oceans than fish.”30.Compared with usual roads,which of the following are the advantages of the plastic road?a.saves moneyb.is not

journey in space has left many curious about the differencesbetween male and female astronauts,especially in extravehicular(舱夕卜的)activities(EVAs).Although femaleastronauts may face lots of physical challenges,they have unique advantages.Understanding between astronauts is very important for carrying out EVAs.Women are better incommunication and language expression,and this helps female astronauts conduct EVAs.Their strongcommunication skills and energy also cheer up the crew throughout their stay,according to Pang Zhihao,aspaceflight researcher in Beijing.Men and women are different in body size,which also gives women unique advantages for spacewalks.Theirgenerally smaller size is an advantage,as women will be able to control their weight better and thus perform awider variety of tasks,“Pang told China Daily.Women in general weigh less,eat less food,consume less oxygen,and therefore required less fuel to get into space.A taikonaut must weigh between 55 kilograms and 70 kilogramsto fit in the cabin of spacecraft and consume less fuel!A different body shape requires a different spacesuit.A personalized spacesuit was prepared fbr Wangs EVAs,which was lighter than that of the male.Designers optimized the pattern of this spacesuit in the lower limb(下肢)area to make it more suitable fbr astronauts with slimmer figures.According to Pang,many studies have found that female astronauts are well adapted to space missions morequickly,and have advantages over male astronauts in qualities such as attention to detail and thinking morecarefully.Men are considered to perform better in short-term tasks with clear goals,while women are better inlong-term tasks,according to National Geographic.Womens participation in EVAs is a necessary part of space missions,and we are experiencing history thanksto Wangs bravery,according to Yang.37.Which of the following statements about Wang Yaping is TRUE?A.She is the first female space walker in the world.B.She is curious

physical challenges.B.She has better communication skills.C.She is stronger and healthier.D.She performs better in short-term tasks.40.Whats the main idea of the article?A.The challenges female
