22、ightest thinkers and innovators. With a significant portion of plastic waste entering through rivers, the Alliance to End Plastic Waste is supporting the work of Renew Ocean to _31_ the lack of waste infrastructure in developing regions.Research published in Environmental Science & Technology in 201

23、7 shows that rivers _32_ dump anywhere from a half to three million tons of plastic into the seas every year. According to the data, ten rivers alone carry 93 percent of the river-borne plastics that end up in the ocean. To help prevent this plastic waste from reaching the ocean, the Alliance to End

24、 Plastic Waste will sponsor Renew Oceans, a localized _33_ and investment project focused on high-leakage rivers. As a Founding Global Oceans Sponsor, the Alliance will _34_ its materials and logistics (物流) capabilities. The National Geographic Society has also supported the Renew Oceans _35_.Renew

25、Oceans is part of the Renewology partnership, a brainchild of Priyanka Bakaya. Growing up in Australia, Bakaya became fascinated by science, chemistry, and the environment. Trips to India as a child _36_ her of the need to do something positive for an environment _37_ strained by plastic waste. At S

26、tanford University, she became aware of social entrepreneurship and continued developing her ideas for ending plastic waste in business school at MIT.How does Renew Oceans plan to tackle a(n) _38_insurmountable (难以克服的) problem? First, using proprietary (专利的) “biofence” technology designed by Renewol

27、ogy, plastic waste is collected as it flows down rivers and branches. ReFences divert the plastic and thus keep it from accumulating and entering the ocean. As _39_, the program has major side benefits. The plastic collected across the developing world will be converted into fuel, while waste picker

28、s will receive compensation directly tied to the fuel generated from the plastic they collect. Renewology can become a powerful _40_ for empowering local communities while cleaning up the worlds trash and providing necessary fuel.六、完形填空Today we continue our series on ecology and conservation with a

29、look at a particularly endangered member of the black bear family. One in ten black bears is _41_ born with a white coat, which is the result of a/an _42_ gene that surfaces in a few. Local people have named it the spirit bear. And according to the legends of these communities, its snowy fur brings

30、with it a special power. Because of this, it has always been highly _43_ by themso much that they do not speak of seeing it to anyone else. It is their way of protecting it when strangers visit the area.The white bears _44_ is quite interesting. The bears strong relationship with the old-growth rain

31、forest is a complex one. The white bear relies on the huge centuries-old trees in the forest in many ways. _45_, the old-growth trees have extremely long roots that help prevent erosion (腐蚀) of the soil along the banks of the many fish streams. Keeping these banks undamaged is important because thes

32、e streams are home to salmon, which are the bears main food _46_. The bears feeding habits nurture the forest _47_. As the bears eat the salmon, they abandon the skin and bones in great amounts on the forest floor, which provide vital nutrients. These produce vegetation that _48_ thousands of other

33、types of life forms, from birds to insects and more.Today, the spirit bear lives off the coast of the province of British Columbia on a few islands. There is great concern for their survival since it is estimated that less than two hundred of these white bears remain. The best way to protect them is

34、 to make every effort to preserve the _49_ balance of their forest environmentin other words, their ecosystem.The greatest _50_ to the bears existence is the loss of its habitat. Over many years, logging companies have stripped the land by _51_ a large number of trees. In addition, they have built r

35、oads which have fractured the areas where the bear usually _52_, and many hibernation sites have also been lost. The logging of the trees along the streams has damaged the places where the bears fish. To make matters worse, the number of salmon in those streams is declining because there is no legal

36、 _53_ on fishing at the moment.All these _54_ have a negative impact on the spirit bears very existence, which is made all the more fragile by the fact that reproduction among these bears has always been _55_ low. While it is important to maintain the spirit bears habitat, there also needs to be mor

37、e emphasis on its expansion. The move is justified as it will also create space for other bears that are losing their homes.41AoriginallyBactuallyCspeciallyDcautiously42AexternalBscarceCcircularDspecial43AjustifiedBthreatenedCregardedDinstructed44AhabitatBbehaviorChabitDdata45AMoreoverBFor exampleCI

The federal government wants to change that. They are spending money to do it. The

40、government will invest three billion dollars in the education of young Americans in science, technology, engineering and math. The four areas together are kown as STEM. Many jobs in the STEM fields will open in the coming years. The U.S. governments investment aims to increase the number of American

41、s who can take those jobs. Yet girls appear far less interested in STEM subjects than boys. Only 25 percent of STEM students are girls. Debbie Sterling is an engineer. She invented a construction toy for girls. The name of the toy is Goldie Blox. Ms. Sterling hopes Goldie Blox will help girls develo

42、p skills in space and shapes, which help engineers and builders to think about objects in three dimensions.To interest girls, Sterling created the character Goldie. Goldie does not care about beauty or clothes. Goldie tells stories, solves difficult problems and creates imaginary worlds.Mia is a sev

43、en-year-old girl who likes science. In her room, she has no fashion dolls. Instead, she has a pegboard, wheels, blocks and an inventors journal to write her observations. Mia received a set of Goldie Blox from her grandmother. She learned to make machine with the blocks.When my grandmother first sen

44、t me the present, a spinning machine, I was really excited. I knew it had to do with engineering, so I grabbed the box and opened it. Then I went for moreI went to the website; I went on YouTube to find more videos. My mom asked me why I was just watching videos instead of building. I told her I did

45、nt have enough pieces. She got me the builder survival kit.Experts say parents should do more than just buy toys to interest their girls in STEM subjects. They should also provide a good education. At school, girls should participate in projects that require teamwork and creative thinking.Women in s

46、cientific and technical jobs are also working to encourage young women to explore STEM. One is Anu Tewary. She studied Applied Physics and worked for technology companies. After she had a daughter, she started Technovati Challenge. The challenge is an international competition for young women from 1

47、0 to 18 years old.There is a good chance that soon, more young women using mobile phones will also be developing programs for them.56We can learn about STEM that_.AThe U.S government will invest in STEM education.BThe market of STEM will be highly competitive.CGirls like STEM better than boys.DStem stands for science, technology, economy, and math.57Why does Mia like Goldie blox?ABecause Goldie ca
