阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Five years after launching its first ocean cleanup system, Dutch non-profit The Ocean Cleanup has shifted focus upstream. Their latest invention, the Interceptor, is a solar-powered barge that extracts plastic from rivers before it reaches the sea. Twenty-three Interceptors now operate in eight countries, removing 5 million kilograms of trash annually.
Each Interceptor processes 50,000 kilograms of waste daily, operating autonomously with minimal human oversight. A conveyor belt lifts floating debris onto a shuttle, which distributes trash among six dumpsters. When full, the system texts local operators for collection. "Rivers are the arteries carrying plastic to the ocean's heart," explains founder Boyan Slat. "Stop the flow at the source."
Jakarta's Citarum River, once called the world's most polluted, hosts three Interceptors. Since installation, plastic pollution downstream dropped 65%. Local fisherman Warso, who previously caught more trash than fish, now nets 30 kilograms daily. "I thought my river was beyond saving," he says. "Now children swim here again."
Critics note that Interceptors treat symptoms, not causes. "We're still producing 400 million tons of plastic annually," says environmental policy expert Dr. Lisa Chen. "Technology alone won't solve addiction to disposables." Slat agrees: "Interceptors buy time. Real solution requires reducing production."
The organization has open-sourced Interceptor designs, encouraging local fabrication. India built four using domestic materials at half the cost. "Our goal isn't monopoly—it's multiplication," Slat says. Next target: the 1,000 most polluting rivers, responsible for 80% of ocean plastic. "That's achievable by 2030 if governments partner with us."
21. What is the primary purpose of the Interceptor?
A. Cleaning ocean plastic. B. Removing river plastic before it reaches oceans.
C. Recycling plastic waste. D. Monitoring water pollution levels.
22. How does the Interceptor notify workers to collect waste?
A. Through daily emails. B. Via automated text messages.
C. By sounding an alarm. D. Through mobile apps.
23. What does the example of India demonstrate?
A. Interceptors are too expensive. B. Local manufacturing reduces costs.
C. India has the most polluted rivers. D. Technology cannot be shared.
B
In Norway's Svalbard archipelago, reindeer have learned a surprising trick: stealing birds' eggs. For generations, researchers assumed reindeer were strict herbivores, surviving on lichen, grass, and leaves during brief Arctic summers. But camera traps installed in 2023 revealed a different story.
Footage shows reindeer approaching Arctic tern nests, waiting for parents to leave, then swallowing eggs whole—shell and all. "We've documented 47 egg-eating events across three summers," says ecologist Dr. Anna Lindqvist. "This isn't desperation. It's learned behavior passed to calves." Genetic analysis confirms that reindeer in egg-eating regions have elevated cholesterol-processing genes, suggesting adaptation over decades.
Climate change may drive this dietary shift. Warmer summers cause plants to flower earlier, mismatching with reindeer birthing seasons. When mother reindeer lack protein from peak vegetation, eggs provide critical nutrition. "We're watching evolution in real-time," Lindqvist notes. "But it's evolution forced by warming."
The behavior has cascading effects. Arctic tern populations in egg-eating areas declined 30% compared to predator-free zones. Meanwhile, reindeer calf survival rates increased 15% during poor plant years. "Nature doesn't have moral judgments," says biologist Dr. Paul Andersen. "It has trade-offs."
Svalbard's government is considering supplemental feeding programs to reduce egg predation. But Lindqvist warns against quick fixes: "Intervening in one species affects others. We need long-term study before acting." The reindeer's new diet has become a case study in how climate change rewrites ecological rules—sometimes with species eating breakfast foods their grandparents never imagined.
24. What did researchers previously believe about reindeer?
A. They only eat plants. B. They hunt small animals.
C. They migrate long distances. D. They hibernate in winter.
25. What evidence suggests this behavior is learned, not instinctual?
A. Reindeer teach their young. B. Only older reindeer eat eggs.
C. The behavior appears suddenly. D. Genetic changes support adaptation.
26. Why are reindeer turning to eggs according to the passage?
A. Plants have become poisonous. B. Bird populations are increasing.
C. Climate change affects plant availability. D. Reindeer populations are too high.
27. What dilemma does Svalbard face?
A. Protecting reindeer or birds. B. Stopping climate change or adapting.
C. Feeding reindeer or reducing tourism. D. Tracking reindeer or saving plants.
C
The world's largest biodiversity database just got bigger—and greener. Brazil's Rio de Janeiro Botanical Garden has digitized 2.5 million plant specimens spanning 400 years, using AI to transcribe handwritten labels in Portuguese, Latin, and even 19th-century German cursive. The collection, now freely online, helps scientists track extinction rates and climate impacts.
"This isn't just about preservation—it's about connection," says director Dr. Lucia Mendes. "A German botanist in 1882 described a plant now extinct. A researcher in Kenya can use his notes to understand why." The AI, trained on 50,000 manually transcribed labels, achieves 96% accuracy, reducing 400 years of cataloging work to 18 months.
The collection includes specimens from Captain Cook's Pacific voyages, Darwin's Beagle expedition, and plants that inspired modern chemotherapy drugs. "When we digitize labels, we're decoding history's scientific conversations," says archivist Carlos Silva. "Handwriting reveals urgency: neat labels mean routine collection; shaky script suggests malaria or seasickness."
Climate scientists use the database to measure changes. One 1883 specimen of Bromeliad was collected at 800 meters elevation. Today, the same species grows at 1,100 meters—chasing cooler temperatures upward at 5 meters annually. "That's three times the global average," says Dr. Mendes. "Brazil's mountains are warning us."
The project faced near-cancellation when funding dried up in 2024. Local tech companies donated servers, and 3,000 volunteers transcribed 100,000 labels from home during lockdowns. "This collection belongs to humanity," Mendes says. "We found a way."
Next phase: photographing pollen samples under electron microscopes to train AI predicting future plant distributions. "Imagine knowing in 2026 which trees will survive 2050's climate," Mendes envisions. "That's not science fiction. That's our next grant proposal."
28. What challenge did the digitization project overcome?
A. Translating extinct languages. B. Reading 400 years of handwriting varieties.
C. Preserving fragile specimens. D. Convincing scientists to share data.
29. How does shaky handwriting on labels help researchers?
A. It identifies the plant's medicinal uses. B. It suggests the collector's physical state.
C. It indicates the specimen's age. D. It reveals the collection location.
30. What does the Bromeliad elevation change demonstrate?
A. Plants adapt quickly. B. Climate warming is occurring.
C. Brazil's mountains are growing. D. Specimen labels are inaccurate.
31. How was the project saved from cancellation?
A. Government emergency funds. B. Corporate and volunteer support.

Every morning, 70-year-old Mei Xiang walks 30 minutes to a "time bank" in her Shanghai neighborhood, where she trades two hours of tutoring migrant children for "time credits" she spends on acupuncture sessions. No money changes hands. Just time.
Shanghai's Elderly Time Bank, launched in 2019 and now spanning 200 communities, allows retirees to deposit volunteer hours and withdraw services later—from housekeeping to nursing care. "Young people work; older people have skills and time," explains program director Feng Jian. "Why not exchange both?"
The math seems promising. China's over-60 population will reach 400 million by 2035. Meanwhile, professional caregivers face severe shortages. Time banking doesn't replace paid care but supplements it—67% of participants report reduced loneliness, and 42% say they've avoided hospital visits through early intervention from nurse volunteers.
Not everyone is convinced. Critics note that complex services like dementia care require professional training, not time credits. "You can't trade babysitting hours for brain surgery," says gerontology expert Dr. Han Wei. Additionally, without formal valuation, a dentist's hour equals a driver's hour—potentially discouraging high-skill volunteers.
Feng acknowledges limitations: "Time banking complements, not competes with, professional care." The program is testing "skill multipliers" where one hour of specialized service earns 3-5 credits. A retired surgeon earned 200 credits teaching first aid—enough for a year of grocery delivery.
Similar programs operate in the UK, Japan, and Switzerland. But Shanghai's version includes blockchain technology preventing fraud and enabling cross-district credit transfers. "My credits follow me if I move," Mei Xiang explains. "That's security."
The central government plans national expansion by 2027. "Aging isn't a crisis—it's a redesign opportunity," Feng says. "Time banking reminds us: everyone has something to give."
32. What is the main function of the Time Bank?
A. Providing free healthcare to retirees. B. Exchanging volunteer hours for services.
C. Employing seniors in childcare. D. Funding nursing homes.
33. What problem does the Time Bank attempt to address?
A. High unemployment rates. B. Shortage of professional caregivers.
C. Low retirement savings. D. Lack of community centers.
34. How does Shanghai's Time Bank differ from international versions?
A. It uses blockchain technology. B. It serves only wealthy seniors.
C. It requires cash payment. D. It focuses on medical care.
35. What is Feng Jian's attitude toward the Time Bank's future?
A. Cautiously optimistic. B. Deeply skeptical. C. Fully confident. D. Completely indifferent.

Synthetic media is becoming harder to detect. Here's what experts recommend for identifying AI-generated videos spreading online.
Look at lighting and shadows. 36 AI often struggles with consistent shadows across moving objects. If a person's face is lit from the left but their shoulder shows right-side shadow, suspect manipulation.
Check skin texture. Deepfake algorithms smooth skin unnaturally, removing pores, freckles, and small scars. 37 Pause the video and zoom in. Does skin look like plastic or wax? That's a red flag.
Watch mouth movements. 38 Humans blink, swallow, and make micro-expressions. AI typically generates perfect, symmetrical mouth movements that ignore tongue position or teeth visibility. If speech seems "too clean," it might be fake.
Examine eyes. Many deepfakes fail to replicate realistic blinking patterns. 39 Also check for inconsistent catchlights—the reflections in eyes should match the scene's lighting source.
Test audio-video sync. 40 Watch for mismatched jaw movements or unnatural pauses between lip movement and sound.
A. If something feels wrong, trust your gut.
B. Humans require air, so mouths open slightly between words.
C. Some systems blink too rarely or with synchronized eyes.
D. Deepfakes often fail to synchronize lips with audio precisely.
E. Real videos have natural skin irregularities AI cannot reproduce.
F. Lighting inconsistencies often reveal digital manipulation.
G. Background elements give away many deepfake videos.

The letter arrived on a Tuesday, tucked between a pizza coupon and an electric bill. But for 12-year-old Elena, it might as well have been a time machine. "Dear Elena," the handwritten note began, "I found your message in a bottle on a beach in Costa Rica. I'm 70 years old, and it's the most ___41___ thing that's ever happened to me."
Elena had ___42___ the bottle into the Pacific Ocean during a family trip to Oregon two years earlier. Inside: her name, address, and a drawing of a whale. "I was bored," she ___43___. "Dad said messages in bottles ___44___ work. I wanted to prove him wrong."
She did—spectacularly. The bottle traveled 3,000 miles, ___45___ by currents that pushed it past California, Mexico, and Central America before ___46___ on a remote Costa Rican beach. Retired marine biologist Dr. Roberto Sanchez found it while ___47___ sea turtle nests.
"I recognized the whale drawing immediately," Sanchez writes. "It's a blue whale—my life's study. I've ___48___ them for 40 years. The universe sent me a colleague."
That colleague is now his pen pal. Elena and Sanchez exchange monthly letters—his in careful English, hers with Spanish phrases she's learning.

On a cloudy morning in western Turkey, archaeologists made a discovery that rewrites history. Beneath 12 feet of sediment, they uncovered a wooden tablet dating to 1200 BCE—the earliest known example of a ___56___ (write) contract between two merchants, complete with witness signatures and penalty clauses for late delivery.
"Previously, we believed such legal ___57___ (document) emerged in ancient Greece, 500 years later," says excavation director Dr. Ayşe Yılmaz. "This tablet proves commercial law existed in Bronze Age Anatolia." The tablet, preserved by a collapsed roof that sealed it from oxygen, details a shipment of 200 clay jars ___58___ (fill) with olive oil.
The text, written in Luwian hieroglyphs, includes ___59___ (surprise) modern elements: "If goods arrive damaged, seller ___60___ (replace) within 30 days." A "force majeure" clause excuses delays due to war or earthquakes, a common risk in seismically active Turkey. "These weren't primitive traders," Yılmaz notes. "They were sophisticated enough to plan for disasters."
___61___ tablet also reveals women's economic roles. One witness signature belongs to "Tarhunza, merchant's wife," suggesting she co-owned the business. Another tablet fragment mentions "daughter's share of profits"—evidence of female inheritance rights ___62___ (previous) thought absent in the period.
The discovery challenges assumptions about literacy. "We assumed only scribes could read," says linguist Dr. Markus Wagner. "But witnesses signed their ___63___ (individual) names, meaning common people could write." This pushes back the timeline of widespread literacy by centuries.
The Turkish government has declared the excavation site a protected zone. Meanwhile, the tablet ___64___ (tour) major museums, with Barcelona hosting it next spring. "Every artifact ___65___ (tell) a story," Yılmaz says. "This one tells us that business contracts—and clever ways to avoid blame—are ancient human traditions."

The abandoned subway station beneath London's King's Cross had been sealed for 40 years—until architect Tom Hartwell found a forgotten door during a survey in 2023. What he discovered wasn't trash or rats. It was a jungle.
In the absence of humans, nature had reclaimed the 10,000-square-foot space. Ferns grew from platforms. Birds nested in signal lights. A small pond, formed from leaking pipes, supported frogs and newts. "I expected dust," Hartwell recalls. "Instead, I found a secret ecosystem."
DNA analysis later identified 127 plant species, including three believed extinct in London. The station's constant 15°C temperature and 90% humidity created a microclimate similar to prehistoric peat bogs. "This isn't just abandoned," said ecologist Dr. Helen Okonkwo. "It's actively rewilding itself."
The discovery sparked fierce debate. Should London preserve this accidental nature reserve or redevelop the station for housing? The site sits above two planned rail lines. Property developers argued for demolition: "Thousands need homes, not a museum to rats and weeds." But schoolchildren launched a "Save the Subterranean Jungle" campaign, gathering 50,000 signatures.
Hartwell proposed a compromise: glass floors allowing commuters to see the ecosystem below while building above. "Don't pave paradise—display it," he argued. But engineers worried about light damaging plants, and costs tripled initial estimates.
As the debate continued, something unexpected happened: the jungle's existence was leaked to international media.
Paragraph 1:
Within a week, scientists from six countries requested access to study the station.

Hi everyone, and thanks for coming to the community meeting. I'm here to talk about our new rooftop farm project. Last year, this city produced 50,000 tons of food waste. Our farm will turn 500 tons of that into compost for urban gardens. We need volunteers every Saturday to sort waste and water plants. If you can't come, consider donating a trash can or soil. Together, we can feed our neighbors instead of landfills. Sign-up sheets are by the door.

Dear fellow students,
Our school's "Plastic-Free Campus" campaign reminds us: single-use plastics choke our planet. One plastic bottle takes 450 years to decompose, harming wildlife and polluting oceans.
Let's act now! Bring your own water bottle—our school has refill stations. Use cloth bags at the campus store. Say no to plastic straws. Small actions, massive impact.
Join us this Friday at noon in the cafeteria for a reusable cup giveaway. Together, we can turn the tide on plastic pollution. Our planet can't wait.

Paragraph 1:
Within a week, scientists from six countries requested access to study the station. Biologists discovered bacteria that digest plastic waste—a potential solution to ocean pollution. Botanists found that ferns had evolved larger spores for low-light environments. The station became a living laboratory. London's mayor declared it a protected research site, and UNESCO provided emergency funding. Property developers withdrew their plans. "Sometimes the best use of space is no use at all," Hartwell said. Glass viewing platforms were installed at street level, allowing commuters to watch the jungle thrive below without disturbing it.
Paragraph 2:
The jungle taught London an unexpected lesson about resilience. School curriculums added "urban rewilding" units. Other cities—Paris, New York, Tokyo—began surveying their own abandoned spaces. "We spent centuries fighting nature," Okonkwo reflected. "This station proves nature fights back quietly, beautifully, effectively." On the first anniversary of the discovery, Hartwell returned with his daughter. She pressed her face against the glass platform, watching a fox drink from the pond. "Daddy," she whispered, "can we build more jungles?" Hartwell smiled. In that forgotten station, buried under concrete and history, London had found its future.

The 2025 International Youth Film Festival kicked off last Friday in Shanghai, bringing together young filmmakers from over 30 countries and regions. The five-day event features 120 short films, workshops, and panel discussions aimed at nurturing the next generation of cinematic talent.
At the opening ceremony, 17-year-old director Chen Xiaoman from Beijing presented her award-winning documentary "Voices from the Alley," which captures the daily lives of elderly residents in traditional Beijing alleyways. "I wanted to preserve these disappearing stories before the old neighborhoods are gone," Chen told reporters.
The festival's competition section is divided into three categories: narrative, documentary, and experimental. A jury of established filmmakers will select winners in each category, with the top prize including a fully-funded scholarship to a summer film program in Paris.
"I've never seen such raw talent and fresh perspectives," said jury member Maria Santos, an award-winning Spanish director. "These young people aren't just imitating what they see — they're creating new visual languages."
One of the most talked-about entries is "Pixel Painter," an animated short created entirely on a smartphone by 16-year-old Indian student Raj Patel. The film explores how digital technology affects modern friendships. "I made it during my commute to school every day," Patel shared. "You don't need expensive equipment to tell a good story."
Beyond screenings, the festival offers masterclasses led by industry professionals. Topics include sound design, screenwriting, and fundraising for independent projects. Organizers say 85% of attendees from last year's festival have gone on to create new works or enroll in film-related studies.
The festival runs through Wednesday at the Shanghai Film Art Center. Tickets are available online and at the door, with discounts for students.

When Sarah Williams retired from teaching after 35 years, most people expected her to relax at home. Instead, the 68-year-old launched "Books on Wheels," a mobile library service that delivers books to rural communities across Kentucky.
The idea struck her during her final year of teaching. "I had a student who lived 30 minutes from the nearest public library," Williams recalled. "His family couldn't afford internet access for e-books. That's when I realized the book desert problem was worse than I thought."
According to a 2023 report, nearly 15% of rural Americans lack access to a public library within a 10-mile radius. Book deserts — areas with limited access to reading materials — disproportionately affect low-income families and communities of color.
Williams converted her old minivan into a mobile library, painting it bright blue and filling shelves with over 500 books donated by community members. She visits four towns each week, spending two hours at each stop. "Some kids have never owned a book of their own," she said. "Watching them pick out their first book — that's pure joy."
The operation isn't without challenges. Gas costs eat up half her monthly pension, and maintaining the aging vehicle has become increasingly difficult. Last winter, the van broke down three times during snowstorms. Still, Williams refuses to give up.
"I remember one grandmother who walked two miles in the rain just to return a book and borrow another," Williams shared. "She told me reading was her only escape. How could I stop after hearing that?"
Local businesses have started taking notice. A car repair shop now offers free maintenance, and a grocery chain donated $5,000 for fuel. Recently, two retired teachers from neighboring counties launched similar services after visiting Williams' operation.
"One person can start a ripple," Williams said with a smile. "I just happened to be the first stone."
24. What problem did Sarah Williams discover during her teaching career?
A. Students lacked interest in reading.
B. Rural areas had limited library access.
C. E-books were too expensive for families.
D. Schools couldn't afford enough textbooks.
25. What does the underlined phrase "book desert" in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. A region without bookstores.
B. An area lacking reading materials.
C. A library with few visitors.
D. A place where books are banned.
26. What difficulty does Williams face in running the mobile library?
A. Shortage of book donations. B. Lack of volunteer support.
C. High vehicle expenses. D. Limited time for each stop.
27. What message does Williams' story convey?
A. Retirement is the start of new adventures.
B. Individual actions can inspire broader change.
C. Rural communities need government funding.
D. Teaching experience leads to community service.
C
A growing number of Chinese universities are introducing "micro-majors" — short-term, intensive programs designed to equip students with specific job-ready skills outside their primary field of study.
Unlike traditional minors that require two to three years of study, micro-majors typically last three to six months and focus on emerging industries such as artificial intelligence, big data, and digital marketing. Students who complete the required courses receive a certificate recognized by participating companies.
Tsinghua University launched its first micro-major in AI Application Development in 2023, attracting over 2,000 applicants for just 150 spots. "Employers keep telling us they need graduates with both technical knowledge and specialized skills," said Professor Li Wei, director of the program. "A computer science major might understand coding, but does he know how to apply AI to medical imaging or financial forecasting? That's what micro-majors address."
The trend responds to China's rapidly changing job market. According to the Ministry of Education, 47% of employers report difficulty finding candidates with the specific technical skills required for new positions. Meanwhile, traditional university programs often cannot update their curriculum quickly enough to keep pace with industry changes.
Critics argue that micro-majors risk creating a fragmented education system where students chase certificates instead of building deep knowledge. "Education shouldn't be reduced to a shopping list of skills," warned Professor Zhang Min from Beijing Normal University. "There's value in studying literature, history, and philosophy — even if they don't lead directly to a job."
Supporters counter that micro-majors complement rather than replace traditional education. "Students still complete their primary degree," explained Liu Yang, a junior who earned a micro-major in User Experience Design while studying psychology. "The certificate helped me land an internship at a tech company. My psychology background helps me understand user behavior, and the micro-major gave me practical design skills."
More than 60 universities have now launched micro-major programs, with subjects ranging from blockchain technology to environmental policy. The Ministry of Education has issued guidelines encouraging universities to develop flexible learning pathways while maintaining academic standards.
28. What is a key feature of micro-majors compared to traditional minors?
A. They focus on theoretical knowledge.
. They take less time to complete.
C.They require a higher tuition fee.
D.D. They are only for graduate students.
29. What problem in the job market do micro-majors aim to solve?
A. Lack of university graduates.
B. Mismatch between skills and job needs.
C. Low salaries for entry-level positions.
D. Competition from international workers.
30. What is Professor Zhang Min's concern about micro-majors?
A. They might lower academic standards.
B. They could narrow students' education.
C. They are too expensive for most students.
D. They lack recognition from employers.
31. How does Liu Yang's example support the pro-micro-major argument?
A. It shows micro-majors replace traditional degrees.
B. It proves micro-majors guarantee job placement.
C. It demonstrates micro-majors provide practical value.
D. It indicates micro-majors are easier than regular courses.
D
Every day, the average person produces about 1.2 kilograms of waste — enough to fill two large soda bottles. By 2050, global waste generation is expected to increase by 70%, reaching 3.4 billion tons annually, according to the World Bank. But what if that waste wasn't just trash? What if it was a resource waiting to be used?
Enter the circular economy — an economic model that challenges our traditional "take-make-dispose" approach. Instead of mining raw materials, using them once, and sending them to landfills, a circular economy keeps resources in use for as long as possible, extracts maximum value from them while in use, then recovers and regenerates products at the end of their life.
The concept isn't entirely new. For generations, poor communities repaired clothes, reused glass bottles, and composted food scraps. But industrialization made disposal cheaper than repair, and convenience trumped conservation. Now, with resource prices rising and environmental costs mounting, the circular economy is gaining mainstream attention.
The European Union has adopted a Circular Economy Action Plan, requiring all packaging to be recyclable by 2030. France has banned supermarkets from destroying unsold goods, requiring them to donate or recycle instead. In the Netherlands, a company called Fairphone produces modular smartphones designed to be easily repaired, with components that snap in and out like Lego bricks.
Critics point to real challenges. Recycling is often more expensive than landfilling, especially for complex products like electronics. Consumer habits are hard to change — people prefer new products over refurbished ones. And current infrastructure favors linear production.
Yet evidence suggests the transition is possible. A study by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation found that applying circular principles to just five key sectors — cement, aluminum, steel, plastic, and food — could reduce global carbon emissions by 40% by 2050. The same study estimated a $4.5 trillion economic opportunity by 2030.
Some companies are already profiting. Patagonia, the outdoor clothing brand, operates a used clothing marketplace and repairs worn gear for free. Philips now sells "light as a service" to airports — customers pay for illumination while Philips retains ownership of the light fixtures, maintaining and recycling them as needed.
For individuals, the circular economy means thinking differently about consumption. Borrow instead of buying. Repair before replacing. Choose products designed to last. Separate waste for recycling. As one activist put it: "There is no such thing as 'away' — when we throw something away, it must go somewhere."
32. What does paragraph 2 mainly explain?
A. The history of waste management.
B. The definition of circular economy.
C. The problems with traditional models.
D. The benefits of reducing consumption.
33. Why does the author mention Fairphone in paragraph 4?
A. To illustrate a successful circular product.
B. To compare different European policies.
C. To criticize poor product design.
D. To promote smartphone repairs.
34. What does the Ellen MacArthur Foundation study suggest about the circular economy?
A. It faces too many obstacles to succeed.
B. It requires government funding to work.
C. It offers environmental and economic benefits.
D. It works only for certain types of products.
35. What is the author's purpose in writing this text?
A. To criticize wasteful consumer behavior.
B. To introduce an alternative economic model.
C. To report on new environmental regulations.
D. To compare different recycling technologies.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Procrastination — the act of delaying important tasks — affects nearly everyone at some point. ___36___ The good news is that researchers have identified effective strategies to overcome this common habit.
First, break large tasks into smaller steps. A project like "write a research paper" feels overwhelming, which triggers avoidance. ___37___ "Open a document," "write three sentences," or "find one source" feel manageable enough to start. Once you begin, continuing becomes easier.
___38___ Many people procrastinate because they fear their work won't be perfect. This perfectionism creates anxiety that leads to delay. Remind yourself that done is better than perfect. Your first draft doesn't need to be award-winning — it just needs to exist.
Third, use the "five-minute rule." Commit to working on a dreaded task for just five minutes. ___39___ Most people find that after five minutes, they're willing to continue because starting was the hardest part.
