Straws are made of oil,
19、 a precious and finite resource. Is making single - use plastic straws, which will be used for a matter of minutes before being tossed away, really what we want to do with this resource?”Cress started asking restaurants in Burlington, Vermont, where he lived at the time, to stop providing straws aut
20、omatically to customer and make them optional instead. Many agreed and his request made ripples (涟漪) nationwide.

After the announcement, many smaller chains and pubs across the country followed suit. According to Wet
22、herspoons CEO John Hutson, the move will save 70 million plastic straws a year and the reaction from patrons has been “very positive”.

27、eel use- less, along with more and more families with young children who desperately need more support. Its a major problem in many societies.Thats why intergenerational programmes, designed to bring the old and the young together, are growing in popularity all over the world, supported by UNESCO an

The children and the residents eat lunch together and share activities such as music, painting, gardening and caring for the pets which the residents are encour

Unless, of course, theres a new block of time that suddenly opens up. The average American now spends about 48 minutes in a car every day, a sizable opportunity for
42、increased cellphone use.So as the public conversation around autonomous cars highlights the safety advantages, dont forget the tech industry s powerful desire for more profits, which goes well beyond simply saving us from ourselves.32.

46、ulture and here are some of their similarities. Both language and music have a writing system.In English we record language using the alphabet, which is a collection of letters. Similarly, we use notes to keep a record of music. Musicians read notes and create meaning in the form of music. 37 By wri
47、ting pieces of text or music, we are able to share experiences through time. We can read the ideas or hear the composition of someone who lived hundreds of years ago. 38 You can make a good guess at where someone is from by listening to the language they use. In the same way, we know that styles of
48、music are different around the world, giving us the opportunity to explore many different cultures through their music and providing us with music for every situation. Both share emotion. 39 Of course you may be able to see it in my face, but you will know for sure through my words. Similarly, music
49、 can sound angry, sad or happy. Music can show you exactly how the composer was or is feeling, and allows us to share in that emotion. When you feel happy, you might want to sing and dance to a happy song to celebrate your happiness. 40 I think we have all used music to express or process our emotio
50、ns, often combining it with language in the form of song lyrics.A. Both are expressive.B Both vary with culture.C How do you know that I am angry?D. We use language to express our thoughts.E.
