19、k and she wanted more than anything to bring people together under the name of peace,respect,and love.Since her teenage years,Orly has worked extensively with tweens and teens as well as local charities in her community providing a helping hand for those who need it most.Orly began her career in kin

20、dness as a middle school educator at the Yeshivah of Flatbush in Brooklyn,NY,teaching the children to use the power they have to influence the world for good.With 8,000 cards,she started a wave of pay-it-forward kindness.Each card contained an act of kindness that once completed,would be passed onto

21、 another person.Her project succeeded,enhancing the lives of her students and raising their sense of self-worth as they saw their direct hand in causing a ripple(涟漪)effect.Even now,people may encounter Orly giving out her famed Acts of Kindness Cards on the subway.Desiring to make a larger impact wi

22、th her beneficent work and after having been inspired by a small sign on a plane labeled“Life Vest Inside”,Orly founded(2011)Life Vest Inside,a non-profit organization with a mission to encourage people to embrace(拥抱)the incredible power of giving and recognize that in times of hardship,kindness,lik

27、 to show kindness to others.DOrly receives international awards for her contribution.For astronomers who are sighted,the Universe is full of visual wonders.From shimmering planets to shinning galaxies(星系),the universe is impressively beautiful.But those who are visually impaired cannot share that ex

28、perience.So astronomers have been developing alternative ways to convey(传递)scientific information.Recently,the journal Nature Astronomy published the latest in a series of articles on the use of sonification in astronomy.Sonification describes the change of data into digital audio(声音)files,which all

29、ows them to be heard,as well as read and seen.In August,Kimberly Arcand,a data-visualization expert and science communicator at the Center for Astrophysics and others transformed some of the first images of the black hole at the centre of the Perseus cluster from the James Webb Space Telescope into

30、sound.They worked under the guidance of people who are blind to map the intensity and colours of light in the headline-grabbing pictures into audio.The sonification of an image of gas and dust in a distant nebula(星云),for instance,uses loud high-frequency sounds to represent bright light near the top

31、 of the image,but lower-frequency loud sounds to represent bright light near the images centre.The black hole sonification translates data on sound waves travelling through space-created by the black holes impact on the hot gas that surrounds it-into the range of human hearing.Scientists in other fi

32、elds have also experimented with data sonification.Some have explored whether it can help with discovering Alzheimers disease from brain scans.Sound has even been used to describe ecological shifts caused by climate change in an Alaskan forest,with researchers assigning various musical instruments t

33、o different tree species.In the long run,such approaches need to be strictly evaluated to determine what they can offer that other techniques cannot.For all the technical accuracy displayed in individual projects,the Nature Astronomy series points out that there are no universally accepted standards

34、 for sonifying scientific data,and little published work that evaluates its effectiveness.28.What does the underlined word“impaired”in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?AAppealing.BDamaged.CDirected.DImpressive.29.The examples in Paragraph 4 are intended to _.Ashow the widespread use of sonification Bi

36、cation has yet to be achieved.CSonification can transform some data that other techniques cannot.DLower-frequency sounds show bright light near the top of the image.Clothes were once used until they fell apart-repaired and sewed to be re-used,ending their lives as dishcloths.Not today.Clothing,footw

37、ear and upholstered furniture are increasingly frequently bought,thrown away and replaced with new fashions,which are themselves soon abandoned and replaced.Fast fashion is so called partly because the fashion industry now releases new lines every week,when historically this happened four times a ye

38、ar.Today,fashion brands(品牌)produce almost twice the amount of clothing that they did in 2000.But incredibly,more than 50 billion clothes are deserted within a year of being made.The trend is having an astonishing environmental impact.Take water.The fashion industry,one of the worlds largest users of

39、 water,consumes anywhere from 20 trillion to 200 trillion litres every year.Besides,plastic fibres are released when we wash polyester(聚酯纤维)and other polymer-based textiles(纺织物),and make up between 20%and 35%of the microplastics choking the oceans.Added to this are specific chemicals used to make fa

40、brics dirt resistant and the pesticides required to protect crops such as cotton.Change is badly needed,but will require the fashion industry to work harder to embrace more of what is known as the circular economy.That will involve at least two things:refocusing on making things that last,and so enc

41、ouraging reuse;and more rapidly expanding the technologies for sustainable manufacturing(制造)processes,especially recycling.There is work to be done for researchers on improving and expanding textiles recycling.Most used textiles go to landfill(废物填埋场),in part because there are relatively few systems

42、that collect,recycle and reuse materials.Such recycling requires the manual separation of fibres,as well as buttons and zips.Different fibres are not easy to identify by eye,and overall such manual processes are time-consuming.Machinery is being developed that can help.Technologies also exist to rec

43、ycle used fibres chemically and to create high-quality fibres that can be reused in clothing.But these are nowhere near the scale(规模)needed.Another challenge for researchers is to work out how to get consumers and manufacturers to change their behaviour.Small steps are good,but big changes are neede

44、d.The shameful environmental cost of a new cupboard needs to be tackled immediately,at scale,with style.31.What are the first two paragraphs mainly about?AClothes should be used until they fall apart.BFashion brands are replaced with new ones frequently.CFast fashion leads to a significant increase

45、in fashion waste.DFashion brands produce twice more clothing than necessary.32.According to the author,what does the circular economy focus on?AImproving the production of natural textiles.BStudying how fast fashion affects the environment.CReleasing new lines four times a year instead of every week

46、.DMaking durable things and expanding the technologies for recycling.33.What can you infer from the passage?AConsumers are fond of chemically recycled fibres.BSystems that collect,recycle and reuse are insufficient.CManual separation of fibres is preferred by manufacturers.DEnvironment damage is mai

47、nly caused by using chemicals.34.What does the author think of the future of fashion industry?ABig changes are needed to follow fashion styles.BHuge steps should be taken for the needs of consumers.CMore should be done to deal with the heavy environmental cost.DConsumers and manufacturers will chang

48、e their behaviour immediately.五、未知 Late-night eating has long been connected to a higher risk for obesity or overweight,which can pose all kinds of risks to your heart.35 A recent study found that when meals are delayed by four hours-say eating at 10:30 PM rather than 6:30 PM-and keeping all other l

49、ifestyle factors the same,people burn fewer calories,have stronger appetite,and experience changes in fat tissue that promote weight gain,according to the studys author.The study was rather small,featuring only 16 overweight or obese people.36 In the weeks before,they maintained a regular sleep sche
