In a corner, under some old sacks, he found some large fragments (碎片) of an antique (古董) bowl. Out of curiosity, he took them
17、 into the kitchen and, much to the anger of his wife, washed the mud off them. That evening he spread newspapers over the kitchen table and carefully stuck the fragments together. However, two pieces were found missing.Two days later, having pulled down the barn, Mr. Fox was digging over the ground
18、in preparation for the installation (安装) of a greenhouse, when he discovered the two missing pieces. When he had stuck them in position, the bowl looked so fine that Amelia agreed to its being placed on a table in the living room, in front of the window.“We might have something a bit special here,”
19、he said to his wife. A few days later, Jeremy took several photographs of the bowl, which he sent off to Sothebys in London.Unexpectedly, Sothebys was extremely interested in the bowl and sent an expert to inspect it. It turned out that it was a Chinese Ming fish bowl, dating back to around 1500, an
20、d might be expected to get a five-figure sum at an auction(拍卖).A week later still more unexpectedly, two police officers called and told the Foxes the bowl was stolen property(财产).So the bowl never reached the auction room, and Mr. Fox never received the five-figure sum that had been mentioned.

24、o protect themselves from being infected ( 感染) with the novel coronavirus (新型冠状病毒), a concern now is how they are dealing with their used masks. As used face masks may carry the coronavirus, they shouldnt be carelessly thrown away as waste. Since the virus can survive for one or two days in wet cond
25、itions, the used masks may become a new source of infection.Given that the garbage sorting（垃圾分类） has recently been carried out in only a few cities, mixed waste commonly exists. The mixture of polluted masks and recyclable waste may cause a possible danger to rubbish collectors when they put hands i
26、n the garbage cans to collect recyclable items. Whats worse, if someone just throws a used mask on the street, someone might pick it up, or try to collect it to sell second-hand. With the spread of the novel coronavirus, there has obviously been a high demand for protective equipment such as face ma
27、sks among ordinary people, with the resulting generation of a huge quantity of what may be considered medical waste. Thus, the problem is how to deal with this mass of medical waste, particularly the used face masks outside of hospitals. Communities should have special trash cans around to collect u
28、sed masks.If these are not provided, people should put the waste into plastic bags before casting them aside, so they are not exposed to the air.As the main risk of medical waste is infectivity, disinfection (消毒) , whether by steam, chemicals or microwave, is very important.

32、te.B. The hospital infection is mainly from medical waste.C. The rules of dealing with medical waste are very strict.D. License companies should be responsible for infection.DFriendship is an important part of human life. Friends can share our joys and sadnesses. We arent alone. Many different anima
33、ls also make friends.Recently, a British research team finished an eight-year study of Indo-Pacific dolphins off the coast of Western Australia. These dolphins can use different tools to search for food. The researchers found that these dolphins are more willing to hang out with partners that like t
34、he same tool. Other factors, like family closeness or sex, have no impact on this relationship. It suggests that dolphins form social bonds based on shared interests.Apart from dolphins, elephants and horses are also known to form friendships.

35、se not, The Atlantic reported. In 2015,Timur, a goat, was left in the enclosure（围场） of a tiger, Amur, as a meal. But instead of eating Timur, Amur liked to play with him and got angry when others were close to his friend. Thats because in captivity(圈养）, animals dont need to spend much time and energ
36、y marking their land or looking for mates the way they would in the wild. They are actually more likely to feel bored.More interestingly, animals not only make friends but also try to keep lasting friendships. Take bats for example. In 2011, scientists found bats often hang out with a few particular
