10、h a limb of my azalea（杜鹃花）bush. By the time I got outside, hed broken it. “Can I take this to school today?” he asked. With a wave of my hand, I sent him off. I turned my back so he wouldnt see the tears gathering in my eyes.The washing machine had leaked on my brand-new linoleum. If only my husband

11、 had just taken the time to fix it the night before when I asked him instead of playing checkers with Jonathan.It was days like this that made me want to quit.

I nodded.“Well, yesterday she was almost hysterical. Her mother and father are going through a nasty divor

15、ce. She told me she didnt want to live, she wished she could die. I watched that little girl bury her face in her hands and say loud enough for the class to hear, Nobody loves me. I did all I could to comfort her, but it only seemed to make matters worse.” “I thought you wanted to talk to me about J

16、onathan,” I said.“I do,” she said, touching the sleeve of my blouse. “Today your son walked straight over to that child. I watched him hand her some pretty pink flowers and whisper, I love you. “I felt my heart swell with pride for what my son had done. I smiled at the teacher. “Thank you,” I said,

17、reaching for Jonathans hand, “youve made my day.”Later that evening, I began pulling weeds from around my azalea bush. As my mind wandered back to the love Jonathan showed the little girl, a biblical verse came to me: “. these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” W

23、ing solid, making it much easier to store.Carbon capture isnt new, but previous methods call for the gas to be compressed into liquid and then injected underground. Widespread usage of that technology has been locked by economic and environmental concerns due to possible leaks. Instead, in a study p

24、ublished in Nature Communications, the group details their sustainable and cost-effective plan for transforming CO2 into coal.This new process involves a liquid metal catalyst( 催化剂 )that is efficient in conducting electricity. CO2 gas is dissolved in a container with some liquid. Once electricity ch

25、arge is introduced, the CO2 begins to turn into solid pieces of carbon, which can be collected and stored.What makes this particularly unique is that the entire process can occur at room temperature. Previous experiments have only shown a gas to solid conversion at extremely high temperature, which

26、made it impossible on a large scale. Now, the researchers are hoping that their work will be used to create even further when it comes to carbon storage.In an interesting side benefit, the solid carbon also works as an electrode( 焊 条 ), which opens up a world of possibilities. “A side benefit of the

27、 process is that the carbon can hold electrical charge, becoming a super battery, so it could potentially be used as a part in future vehicles,” explains Dr. Dorna Estrafilzadeh, a researcher. “The process also produces fuel as a by-product, which could also have industrial applications.”24. What ca

28、n we know about the previous carbon capture methods?A.People have to inject liquid to the gas.B.The previous methods can be done easily.C.The previous methods are not very popular.D.People have widely accepted previous methods.25.What is the special part of the new method?A.It needs electricity to m

39、5.25 trillion pieces of plastic trash in the worlds oceans, and each year, 8 million tons of plastic are added to the figure. Though the oceans seem vast enough to stomach a lot of plastic, the level of waste is starting to reach a crisis point: According to a new report by the Ocean Conservancy, by

40、 2025, the ocean could contain one ton of plastic for every three tons of fish.All these floating bits of plastic not only disrupt marine ecosystems, but also poison the global supply of seafood. “Its reaching crisis proportions,” says Andreas Merkl, CEO of the Ocean Conservancy. “Plastic breaks dow

41、n into small pieces that look like plankton (浮游生物) and is eaten by everything from plankton to whales.”The new report calls for a focus on improving waste management systems in a handful of developing countries that account for the plastic leakage into the ocean. China, Indonesia, the Philippines, T

42、hailand and Vietnam contribute more than half of the oceans plastic since their waste facilities havent kept up with rapid industrialization.How can countries reduce the leakage of waste into the ocean? The Ocean Conservancy report suggests that by providing more waste collection services, closing t

43、he leakage points within the collection system, getting rid of waste with effective landfill, and building more recycling facilities, the plastics leakage could be cut by 50% by 2020.Its not just an environmentalists daydream. Coca-Cola and Dow Chemical, along with some other multinational companies

44、, have joined forces with Ocean Conservancy to fight ocean pollution. “Were committed to working toward a future of a plastic-free ocean. Companies dont make plastic with the intention of it ending up in the ocean, and we acknowledge the strong role industry must play in order to help eliminate ocea

45、n plastic waste by 2035.” Says a Dow Chemical director.“While building landfills and incinerators (焚化炉) across these developing countries might not be pretty, its far more environmentally friendly than letting waste slide into the worlds oceans.” Says Andreas Merkl.32.
