B After the season for giving. it is the one for throwing away. Each year in late December a massive amount of plastic packaging is thrown worldwide, most of which goes to landfill. Lithuania will do less damage than many countries. though. The county now recycles at a record level. Almost three -quarters of plastic packaging waste was recycled in 2017. the highest in Europe The EU average was 42%. and the worst performers. including Finland and 8


France, under 30%. Much of Lithuania's success is due to a deposit refund scheme(押金制)introduced in 2016. Customers pay 0.10 extra when baying drinks containers. After use, these can be fed into vending machines in shops. from whose mouth the deposit comes out. The machines’ contents are sent directly to recycling centers. By the end of 2017. 92% of all bottles and cans sold were being returned. close to 3 times the amount as before. The Lithuanian government says the scheme has started a potential love for recycling in is citizens. Nearly 90% of Lithuanians have used the machines at least once. The eagerness of Lithuanian recyclers may come no from a love of the earth but from a low net worth. Lithuania has the second-most unequal income in Europe. A tenth of the population live on less than 245 S272a month. In big cities it is common to see people picking recyclable items out of bins to take to the machines. Less litter and money for people who need it seems like a win-win. But it might not be best for the environment in the long run. In Germany -where a similar deposit refund scheme has been in place since 2003- the earnings from keeping the deposits from unreturned bottles seem to have discouraged producers from switching to more sustainable packaging. 24. How much packaging waste did Lithuania recycle in 2017? A. Under 30%. B. Above 42%. C. About 74%. D. Nearly 90% 25. What do we know about the deposit refund scheme?

They love the earth. B. Some of them are short of money. C. They are environmental protectors. D. The government promotes recycling. 27. Which word best describes the author's attitude to the scheme? A. Objective. B. Tolerant. C. Positive.
D. Conservative,
C In a grey office building of Helsinki a social worker is meeting six elderly people from around town for lunch- via tablets平板电脑 on heir kitchen table. For the next half-hour she talks to them about their day and reminds them to have something to drinkbecause dehydration is particularly dangerous for older people. The virtual lunch group is part of Helsinki's remote-care program for its elderly. While many counties with large elderly populations are building new care homes. Finland is not planning to do so and, instead, is looking after people in their own homes for longer. The guiding principle in Finland is that for anyone, no matter what their age. home is best”. In Helsinki's home -care program. about 4, 000 old people are equipped with various safety devices. These include wristbands with GPS, a fall detector and a phone line linked to care 8


workers. who monitor the wearer' s location on their computer screens. Most of the old people are too weak to walk about much, so they rarely leave their homes. But if they venture out in the middle of the night, care workers are to find them. Local tech companies have developed systems that use a network of motion sensors to gather data on things like how much a person moves about, visits the bathroom or opens the fridge. Not opening the fridge as much, for example, is a sign that memory problems may be getting worse. Technology sometimes misfires不奏效. Wristbands give out the wrong location, setting off false alarms. A sensor may fail because Grandpa covers a towel over it. Some elderly people forget to charge their tablets. Such problems can be fixed. The biggest gain from technology may be that it makes it easier to keep old people fit enough to remain in their own homes for longer. This is much cheaper than an institution, and usually nicer, too. 28. What does the underlined word “dehydration” in paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Talking less. B. Eating alone. C. Watching their tablets. D. Losing too much water. 29. Why does Finland carry out the “remote-care program”?
A. To build more lunch groups.
B. To make the old stay at home. C. To guide elderly people to care homes. D. To care for the old in their own homes. 30. What is the function of motion sensors? A. To find the missing old people. B. To monitor the wearers location. C. To collect the wearer' s activity data. D. To check people's memory problems. 31. What may cause technology to fail? A. Grandpa uses a towel. B. The tablets are out of power. C. Wristbands send out an alarm.
D. The elderly forget their location.
D Innovation(创新)comes from environments where ideas can connect. So what kind of environment does an epidemic传染病)create when it comes to quickening innovation? This is the very question a new information chart from Top Masters looks to answer. According to the report, ground- breaking innovations have come despite the tragic effect of epidemics throughout history. This is a timely report because people are coming up with some innovative ideas to address many of the challenges brought on by COVID-19. As epidemics go, the Black Death of the 1300s was extremely shocking. The plague(瘟疫)as it is also known, wiped out up to 60% of the population in Europe. According to the report, it was responsible for changing the economic and social structure of Europe and the creation of a middle class. There were other outbreaks of the plague in England later on. In 1592, London faced an outbreak that shut down theaters for six months, This led Shakespeare to start writing poetry to make a living. And it was during this time that he wrote Venus and Adonis, and The Rape of Lucre. Another plague in 1606 also closed the theatres in London, and this time Shakespeare wrote King Lear and Macbeth. 8


In the US, the Boston smallpox epidemic of 1721 led to the spread of variolation天花接which was responsible for reducing the death rate from 14% to2%as well as the first steps towards vaccines疫苗. COVID-19 is causing serious damage around the world. And although the death rate is nowhere close, the economic impact has been overwhelming. On the negative side, it has highlighted many of the shortcomings in the healthcare industry as nurses and doctors battled virus unfortunately underequipped. With increased connectivity and technology, innovators around the world have responded by making the equipment that healthcare workers desperately need. Todays innovators are addressing ventilator呼吸机)shortages by using 3D printers and designing simpler ventilators; companies are making washable and reusable masks; app are tracking the virus and fighting the spread of misinformation. 32. What can be inferred from the first paragraph? A. Epidemics can promote creative ideas. B. Creative ideas can influence epidemics. C. Innovation exists in any environment. D. Epidemics have more negative effects on the environment. 33. According to the passage. What result did epidemics have in history? A. The death rate was decreased. B. European economy was improved. C. Shakespeare changed his writing focus. D. The Boston smallpox killed 14% of the population. 34. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. The COVID- 19 will soon be wiped out. B. Medical workers are making equipment. C. Healthcare equipment has been made in large quantities. D. Innovators rely on technology to solve medical problems. 35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Epidemics Speed Up Innovation B. Innovation Changes the Economy C. Epidemics Damage the Environment D. Innovators Prevent COVID-19 二、阅读七选五(共5小题,共10分)
