31、ant leave trash along the way any more. Each climber will have to come down the mountain with at least 18 pounds of garbage. Thats the amount of trash that a climber usually leaves behind on Everest.“We are not asking them to pick up trash left by someone else,” said Maddhu Burlakoti, who works for
32、the Nepal Tourism Ministry. “We just want them to bring back what they took up.”More than 4,000 people have reached the summit (顶点) in the past 60 years. Leaving trash along the way helps climbers keep their bags light so they have the energy to reach the top. “The trash problem is not new,” said Bu
33、rlakoti. “When people started to climb, they started to leave their garbage there. They have left behind cans, tents and equipment.”The new rule came into effect in April, 2014. To make sure it is followed, climbers have to deposit (存入) money before the climb. Once they climb back down the mountain,
34、 officials will check to make sure they have the required trash. If they do, their money will be returned. If they do not, climbers will not receive their money and they will not be given a permit the next time they want to climb Everest.The goal is to make sure no more litter will be left on Everes
35、t, which has earned its nickname The Worlds Highest Garbage Dump. “As we offer Everest to all the people of the world, they should take responsibility for cleaning it,” said Burlakoti. “After seeing the results from this, we will extend this rule to other mountains too.”43.

36、koti, the climbers should . A. be responsible for their own trashB. only take necessary things with themC. serve as volunteers to pick up the trash D. bring back all the trash along their way44.

39、res in the sea were thought to live completely independent of fresh water by certain type of adaptation (适应), but now researchers have discovered that one species, the yellow-bellied sea snake, in fact relies on rain for drinking water, and in between the rains is able to make do in an extreme state
40、 of dehydration (脱水).Several studies have shown a link between fresh water availability and the places where yellow-bellied sea snakes live. The only source of freshwater in the sea is rainfall. During rainy periods, rainwater floats at the top of the seawater and provides a drink for those thirsty
41、yellow-bellied sea snakes. Since sea snake populations often gather around those places where there are heavy rainfalls, researchers believed they depend on the water for survival.If this is true, it must mean the yellow-bellied sea snake can survive extreme dehydration. To see if this is indeed the
42、 case, researchers caught 500 yellow-bellied sea snakes on the coast of Costa Rica.They found that the snakes tended to drink more water following periods of low rainfall, and the lighter they were (and thus the more dehydrated they were), the more they drank. Their findings show that the yellow-bel
43、lied sea snake can live in a dehydrated state for several months at a time, depending on the length of the dry season. The study proves that animals that once lived on land but then moved into the sea have developed a unique way of adaptation to their salty home. For instance, whales and sea turtles
44、 no longer need any freshwater at all by having salt glands (盐腺) that deal with seawater. Instead of adapting to the sea environment like many others, sea snakes have taken a different approach.47. According to the text, people used to think that .A. sea snakes can go without fresh waterB. sea snake
45、s can take salt out of their bodies C. sea snakes adapt to saltwater in a special way D. sea snakes can turn saltwater into fresh water 48. The underlined phrase “make do” in the first paragraph probably means “ ”.A. stay up late B. manage to live C. live an easy life D. pretend to be dead49. What d
46、id the research on the 500 yellow-bellied sea snakes prove? A. They seldom drink except when it is raining. B. They become lighter after drinking fresh water. C. They can live in a dehydrated state for a long time. D. They refused to drink after being caught.50. What is the best title for the text?A
47、. What sea snakes drink for livingB. How sea snakes survive without water to drinkC. How sea snakes differ from other sea animalsD. Why sea snakes move from land to the seaEBritains pub landlords are looking with a worried eye to the UK Chancellors budget for fear that the annual tax gathering round
48、 will strike another blow to a traditional industry already reeling (蹒跚). Thousands of pubs have closed since the financial crash in 2007. The Plough, which was once a coaching house for travelers, has been serving Britains famous warm beer since the days of Shakespeare. Now it is under threat too.
49、“Yeah. So many pubs have been closed over the last few years even in this area,” said Derek ONeil, the manager of The Plough Pub.Many reasons are the causea ban on smoking in public, severe laws against drinking and driving and high taxes have all combined to kill off nearly 10,000 pubs in the last
50、seven years, according to the British Beer and Pub Association. With the closures, pubs are being redeveloped. Many have turned into supermarkets, where the beer is sometimes cheaper.Britains pubs continue to play an important part in the UK economy, selling thousands of different beers and employin
51、g more than a million people. The reality, though, is pubs are suffering something of a hangover (遗留物). In the last 15 years the amount of beer sold in pubs has fallen by eight million barrels to just under 36 million a year. Pub landlords want tax breaks (税务减免).“People have less money in their pock
52、ets, so they cant go out and spend it and habits are changingso much alcohol is nowadays drunk at home,” said Brigid Simmonds, Chief Executive of the British Beer and Pub Association. “Yeah, I miss the pubs where theres a lot of character, especially 30 years ago. You know there was great fun in the
