Section I Reading and Thinking (1)阅读理解AFor some people, walking or running outdoors is a great way to work out. What may not be so pleasant is seeing trash all over the ground.

The name combines the Swedish word “plocka” , which means to pick up, and the word “jogging” , which means to run slowly. A Swedish man named Erik, started the movement in 2016. On the World Environment Day website, Erik says that he moved to Stockholm from a small community in northern Sweden. Each day he would ride his bike to work. Concerned about the amount of trash and litter he saw each day on his way to work, he took matters into his own hands.Plogging, by that term, may have officially begun in Sweden. But many people who exercise outdoors have been doing this for years. Take Jeff Horowitz for example. He is a personal trainer in Washington, D. C. He often picks up trash while running outside. He even has turned it into a game; he will try to pick up the trash without stopping. "I didn' t know it was a thing really. This is just my personal ethics (道 德标准)，where I go for a run and if I happen to see a piece of garbage lying around and it' s within reach一it is a. kind of a little test for me to see if I can grab it and throw it in a near trash can without stopping.

Snow or no snow, I would be on time for my scheduled donation at the local 3 centre.When I got there, I discovered I wasn' t 4 . Four more uhero-typesn were already lying back in donor chairs with lines 5 to their veins（静脉），and machines quietly pumping away to collect their life-saving gifts.Seeing my fellow donors honouring their own commitments, I realised why I was there.

But a few months ago, during one of my 7 donations I learned that my blood was specifically for a cancer patient and for a newborn baby一both patients needed what I would give in order to live. I' ve viewed my visits to the blood centre 8 ever since.My wife Karen is a 9 , too. And more importantly, she has been on the bone marrow（骨髓）list for fifteen years, ever since she 10 to provide bone marrow to a kindergartner with leukemia（白血病）.That little girl died before Karen' s bonemarrow could help her, but Karen was called again recently. Her test results were still on file, and it turned out that she was a potential 11 for someone else. The caller asked Karen if she would still be willing to become a bone marrow donor.“Yes, " she said and then immediately began answering questions on the pages of paperwork for further testing. It was a race against time.I wish I could say that this race was 12 . Unluckily, it wasn, t. The caller later thanked Karen for her participation and asked a few more questions一including whether or not she' d 13 on the donor list. "Of course, " Karen answered.Last week Karen gave blood and next week I' 11 make my usual donation. I' 11 clear an afternoon from my schedule and make an appointment. I don' t know whose life my donation may 14 . Most likely it will be a 15 , but on any day the person needing blood could be you or me or maybe a loved one.

In fact, it was noticed as early as ancient Roman times. Today we see how green living has influenced our everyday lives. There is a growing community of people who embrace a zero waste lifestyle and make changes to the way they live to reduce their carbon footprint.Living a zero waste lifestyle means doing one' s best to achieve the aim of not sending anything to a landfill. People who adopt this lifestyle ultimately cut down on their waste by reducing what they need and want. They reuse what they own, sending few things to be recycled.Many people who adopt the zero waste lifestyle claim to be frustrated by the many harmful chemical substances found in beauty and cleaning products. They also find the uses of disposable items and excessive packaging the same. For example, how many times have we had to peel away layers of plastic wrap and cardboard before finally taking out the item which we had bought? Instead of buying prepackaged food and goods, those who identify with the zero waste philosophy tend to shop in stores that allow them to make purchases and bring their own cloth bags and glass jars to store their purchases.Many people have the misconception that it is easier to live a zero waste lifestyle in the West. Nevertheless, Malaysian environmental journalist, Ms Aurora Tin, has proven that a zero waste lifestyle is possible even in the Asian context.Instead of going to the super-market to buy prepackaged foods, Ms Tin now visits the wet market and brings her own bags for vegetables. She has even stopped using store-bought toothpaste and make her own toothpaste from coconut oil and baking soda. This lifestyle may be too big a change for the average person, but we could follow her suit to make gradual changes to our own lives.1. Which of the following is a zero waste lifestyle?A.

Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants(抗 氧化物质).The yellow and orange stone fruits such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into vitamin A and which are antioxidants. As for cherries, they are so delicious. Who cares? However, they are rich in vitamin C.When combined with berries or slices of other fruits, frozen bananas make an excellent base for thick, cooling fruits shakes and low fat “ice creamv . For this purpose, select ripe bananas for freezing as they are much sweeter. Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and freeze. If you like, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown. Frozen bananas will last several weeks, depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer.If you have a juicer, you can simply feed it with frozen bananas and some berries or sliced fruit.
