4、recyclable by2025 and using at least 50%recycled material in its packaging by 2030.Sprite,an important brand of Coca-Cola,currently uses plastic bottles containg a green additive calledPolyethylene Telephthalate（PET）.These bottles are commonly changed into single-use items like clothingand carpeting

5、 that cant be recycled into new PET bottles.“Taking colors out of bottles improves the quality of the recycled m aterial,said Julian Ochoa,CEO ofR3CYCLE,which is working with Coca-Cola to improve bottle-to-bottle recycling.When recycled,clearPET Sprite bottles can be remade into bottles,helping driv

6、e a circular economy fbr plastic.Sprite,the popular lemon-flavored soft drink,which first hit shelves in 1961,is also getting a new logoand packaging design.Sprites packaging will keep the brands recognizable green colour and includenoticeable Recycle Me“message.Other drinks that use green bottles,i

7、ncluding Fresca,Seagrams,andMello Yello,will also transition to clear packaging in the coming months.Both Coca-Cola and PepsiCo have been criticized for contributing to the worlds plastic pollution.In2021,both companies ranked as the worlds top plastic polluters for the 4th consecutive（连 续 的）year by

8、the environmental organization Break Free From Plastic.Global beach cleanups were carried out by morethan 11,000 volunteers in 45 countries to identify the most common plastic polluters.Break Free From Plasticfound that 20,000 Coca-Cola branded products were picked up,representing more pollution tha

13、.Sprite retiring its signature green plastic bottles after more than 60 years.02（江 苏 省 南 京 市 2022-2023学 年 高 三 上 学 期 期 初 考 试 英 语 试 题）Plastic fishing nets,the so-calledghost nets,abandoned yearly in the sea-about 1 million tons-are more than just rubbish;theyre a killer.Fish,sea birds,and turtles get

14、caught in the netting and die,with more species at risk.Much shocked at this,Pranveer Singh Rathore,a materials-science engineer and materials R&Dmanager at Samsung,and his team set themselves the task of giving new life to the deadly nets.Last month,Samsung revealed a new line of Galaxy products ma

15、de in part from recycled plastic fishing nets for the firsttime.The company estimates this year alone it can recycle over 50 tons of ocean-bound plastic into the keycomponents that will go into its smartphones,tablets,and computers,thus taking a bite out of the global ghostnets problem.Its no small

16、task to give waste fishing nets a second act.The nets are typically made of a substancecalled nylon which tends to dramatically degrade（降 解）the longer it sits in the ocean and is exposed to thesun.This makes it nearly impossible to use abandoned fishing nets directly,Rathore explains.Besides,high-pe

17、rformance smartphone,tablet,or PC has to be wateiproof and can survive severe weather.The nylonin the fishing nets falls far short of that level of durability（耐 用）.To deal with that problem,Samsung last summer teamed up with two partners:one to collect andtransform the nets into tiny nylon pellets（颗

18、 粒）while the other to strengthen their toughness and durability.The end result:The partners hit upon an eco-friendly and high-performance plastic material thafs being usedto build the component parts for its latest line of products.For example,two parts of the Galaxy S22 mobilephonethe key bracket a

19、nd the inner cover-are made of these fishing-net plastic materials.Samsung aimsto use even more upcycled materials in future product lines.Thats the hope fbr the globe and our mission,“Rathore smiles.5.What does the underlined word this in paragraph 2 refer to?A.Rubbish in the sea.B.Recycling the de

23、eat”microplastics in water bodies and repair itself if damaged.Microplastics,pieces of plastic smaller than 5 millimeters,are numerous and widely distributed in theocean.They are easily eaten by marine organisms（海 洋 生 物）and transmitted through the food chain,presenting a serious threat to human and

24、ecosystem health.Inspired by nacre,also known as mother of pearl,a strong,durable and flexible material obtained fromhard shells,scientists from Sichuan University modeled nacre9s graphene-based gradient nanostructure（石 墨 烯 基 梯 度 纳 米 结 构）to create a durable,flexible and self-repairing nanocomposile（

25、纳 米 复 合 材 料），according to a study published in the journal Nano Letters.The research team then used the new material to develop a 15-mm fish-like soft robot,enabling it toswim rapidly and absorb microplastics in water.Soft robots need to have high adaptability andenvironmental tolerance when working

26、 in complex water environments,9,said Wang Yuyan,the first authorof the research paper,who added that existing traditional soft robots are generally made of rubber,whichpoorly performed in mechanical capacity,easily damaged and have difficulty integrating（整 合）functions.The study showed that compared

27、 with traditional uniformly dispersed（均 匀 分 散 的）material structures,the new material used in the fish-shaped soft robot has many supramolecular（超 分 子）interactions betweenlayers,allowing the robot to recover its stability and functionality even when damaged and continue itsmicroplastic harvesting ope

28、rations.The robotic fish can swim at a speed of 2.67 times its body length per second,exceeding the speeds ofpreviously reported soft swimmers and comparable to the speed of other small forms of plant and animal lifethat live in water.At present,the soft robot can only achieve the function of direct

29、ionally collecting microplastics fromthe water surface.All these functions need to be developed and improved before large-scale application.The researchers are currently working on a new material that could detect microplastic underwater andshare live data online,the paper said.The new nanostructura

43、res,mushrooms,even pineapple fibers!What if you want such a pair of shoes?Thaely is here to help.This sneaker brand out of Dubai wants to fight the growing problem of plastic pollution.Led by 23-year-old Indian businessman Ashay Bhave,they may have found a winning approach:making shoes out ofplastic

44、 grocery bags.Thaely“means“plastic bag“in the Hindi language.“I was looking to create footwear that is cost-effective and safe for the environment,Bhave said in aninterview with a newspaper.t6I needed to come up with something that uses recycled plastic without creatingany more plastic waste.Plastic

45、 bags were the perfect solution.He said five trillion plastic bags arc usedaround the world each year.4i was motivated to find a solution to this problem,v Bhave said.That solution was the fiber called ThaelyTex.Made entirely from plastic bags,the material looks andfeels like leather.That sounds pro

46、mising.Better yet,the production process requires no additional chemicalsand produces no poisonous by-products.The result is a smart-looking pair of white low-top sneakers.Bhave wouldnt expose the full process for making ThaelyTex,but he said that each pair of shoes wasmade from up to 15 plastic bag
