The Inevitable Plastics Revolution
The Guardian once called plastic “Man’s worst invention”. One of the lesser-known uses of
plastic is to reduce carbon emissions. For example, plastics make vehicles lighter thereby
increasing their (31) ______; it also increases the shelf life of foods, reducing food waste and the
need to transport more. So plastics have an important role to play in creating a (32) ______ future.
Currently that isn’t the case. Of the 24.5 million tons of plastic waste (33) ______ in Europe
each year, only 14 per cent is recycled. The rest is burned, buried or lost on land or at sea. Indeed,
the European plastics industry emits 95 million tons of CO2 each year, about 3.7 per cent of total
(34) _______. One-third of this comes from the burning of waste plastics.
That has to change, says Marc, one of the world’s leading chemicals and plastics
manufacturers. “With a (35) _______ population, we need to find a way to make better use of our
resources.” In (36) ______ with the recycling technology company, Mura Technology, it wants to
(37) ______ the plastics economy by dramatically increasing the amount of plastic that is recycled

Today most plastic is made from petrochemicals, using processes (38) ______ by fossil fuels.
While a great deal is thrown away, a large proportion of plastics waste can be collected and sent to
be (39) ________ recycled. This involves washing, drying and grinding the material, then heating
and (40) _______ it into a new product. But at no stage is the chemical structure of the plastic
changed. In order to reduce pollution, the plastics manufacturing sector needs technological
innovation.
III. Reading Comprehension
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.
Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
What do you know about fashion The fashion industry, which has become one of the most
___41___ to the planet, is having a moment of punishment. But which changes make a difference,
and which ones just ___42___ in the wash In fact, the fashion industry is second only to the oil
industry, the most environmentally unfriendly industry.
A friend of mine ___43___ an antique clothes store in the north of London. Business has been
good for many years, which makes her acquire a large fortune. Every few weeks, she visits a vast
storehouse on the edge of the city to go through piles of clothing. Most of it is ___44___, but if
you know what you are looking for, there are raw diamonds. The storehouse has a long history. It
was once a clearing house for the low-quality wool scraps(碎料) that were used to make cheap
clothing for the ___45___ in Victorian Britain. A century on, ___46___ has changed. Nowadays, it
is full of modern-day inferior products, all ___47___ cheap clothing made for the masses around
the world. Except that this stuff is going to be burned or buried, not being reused.
The items are the products of an industry that, in the past 30 years, has become one of the
most successful and also most ___48___ on the planet. Known as fast fashion, it has filled our
wardrobes(衣柜) with cheap and cheerful clothes. But after three decades of continuous growth,
the model is in ___49___ with fundamental environmental limits and there is widespread
agreement – even from within the industry – that it is time to ___50___. Otherwise, “Fast fashion”
creates a mountain of unsellable, cheap clothing that ends up in a terrible place.
“The fashion industry represents a key environmental ___51___,” says Kirsi Niinim ki at
Aalto University in Espoo, Finland. “Eventually, the long-term stability of the fashion industry
___52___ the total abandonment of the fast-fashion model.” Like fast food, fast fashion is all
about instant ___53___ on the cheap.
One wonders: What can we do about it Don’t you have any clothes on It’s not that
___54___. More importantly, don’t waste, learn to control your desires and ___55___ falling into
this “Fast fashion” lifestyle. As the guardian columnist Lucy Seagal once said, the “Fast fashion”
industry is profit-driven, but consumers who have experienced “over-consumption” will naturally

Section B
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished
statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best
according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
Adjusting to a new sleep schedule at the start of the school year can lead to disturbed rest,
daytime tiredness and changes in mood and focus for teens. Although they need eight to ten hours
of sleep per night to maintain physical health, emotional well-being and school performance,
according to the National Sleep Foundation, most adolescents get less than eight.
Newly published research from RUSH in the journal SLEEP reveals how adolescents can get
more shut-eye. “There are a lot of changes a teen goes through,” said Stephanie J. Crowley, PhD.
“One specifically is a change to sleep biology that happens during adolescence.” Crowley said,
“there are two competing forces: one to go to bed earlier for the school schedule and the other a
biological change that happens naturally to a teen’s body.” Because of this complex conflict,
RUSH researchers set out to test a two-week intervention that targets the circadian(昼夜节律的)
system with different behavioral measures and tries to help the teens figure out a better nighttime
routine.
To solve teen sleep shortage, the researchers used bright light therapy on two weekend
mornings for a total of 2.5 hours. The bright light helps the internal clock to wake up a little earlier.
This shift should make it easier for the teens to fall asleep at an appropriate time. Crowley and her
team then helped them make up for sleep problems by providing time management tools and
addressing barriers to an earlier bedtime, like limiting certain after-school activities.
Researchers were able to shift the teens’ bedtime by an hour and a half earlier, and their total
sleep time increased by approximately an hour. “The interesting thing is that teens with late
circadian clocks shifted by up to two hours earlier,” Crowley said. “And the teens who had an
earlier circadian clock didn’t need to be shifted any earlier. They just needed the behavioral
support of trying to manage their time in the evening and increase their sleep duration.” The
researchers also found the teens in the intervention group were less tired, and less angry, and they
exhibited better concentration. The students’ morning attention improved as well.
56. According to the author, what’s the major sleeping problem in teens
A. Most teens’ circadian clocks have changed.
B. Most teens get less than eight hours of sleep.
C. Too much sleep affects teens’ academic performance.
D. Teens have to get more sleep in order to go to school.
5
57. What’s the author’s purpose of mentioning two competing forces
A. To highlight the importance of circadian clock changes in teens.
B. To emphasize the significance of teens’ night-time routine.
C. To show the conflict between sleeping early and not wanting to sleep.
D. To build connection between sleeping earlier and rising earlier.
58. What can we learn about the bright light therapy
A. It makes teens go through many different changes.
B. It makes teens without enough sleep concentrate on their study.
C. It helps teens go to bed three hours earlier every day.
D. It does help teens develop good sleep patterns.
59. What is the best title of the passage
A. Teens’ Sleeping Time B. Helping Teens Get More Sleep
C. Experiment on Teens’ Behavior D. Improving Teens’ Concentration

Wildlife populations around the world are facing dramatic declines, according to new figures
that have led environmental campaigners to call for urgent action to rescue the natural world. The
2022 Living Planet Index(LPI), produced by the Zoological Society of London(ZSL), reveals that
studied populations of mammals, birds, reptiles(爬行动物) and fish have seen an average decline
of 69 per cent since 1970, faster than previous predictions. The LPI tracked global biodiversity
between 1970 and 2018, based on the monitoring of 31,821 populations of 5230 vertebrate(脊椎
动物) species. Mark Wright of WWF says the degree of decline is destructive and continues to
worsen. “We are not seeing any really positive signs that we are beginning to bend the curve of
nature,” he says.
Freshwater vertebrates have been among the hardest-hit
populations, with monitored populations showing an average
decline of 83 per cent since 1970. The Amazon pink river
dolphin, for example, has experienced a 65 per cent decline in
its population between 1994 and 2016. Meanwhile, some of the
most biodiverse regions of the world are seeing the steepest falls
in wildlife, with the Caribbean and central and south America
seeing average wildlife population declined by 94 per cent since
1970. Habitat loss and reduction is the largest driver of wildlife loss in all regions around the
world, followed by species overexploitation by hunting, fishing or poaching(偷猎).
In December, governments from around the world will gather in Montreal, Canada, for the
COP15 Biodiversity Framework, a much-delayed summit that aims to agree on a set of new
targets intended to prevent the loss of animals, plants and habitats globally by 2030. “This is a
once-in-a-decade opportunity that’s coming up,” says Robin Freeman of ZSL. He says it is vital
that governments use the summit to agree on “meaningful, well measurable targets and goals”.
“We need governments to take action to ensure that those goals deal with the complicated
combined threats of climate change and biodiversity, in order for us to see a meaningful action,”
says Freeman. But some researchers are critical of the LPI’s use of a headline figure of decline,
warning it is easy to be misunderstood.
The findings don’t mean all species or populations worldwide are in decline. In fact,
approximately half the populations show a stable or increasing trend, and half show a declining
trend. “I think a more appropriate and useful way to look at it is to focus on specific species or
7
populations,” says Hannah Ritchie at Our World in Data. But Wright says the LPI is a useful tool
that reflects the findings of other biodiversity indicators. “All of those show they all scream there
is something going really very badly wrong,” says Wright.
63. What does the underlined phrase in the first paragraph mean
A. Loving and protecting nature. B. Preserving the diversity of nature.
C. Underestimating the benefits of nature. D. Destroying and changing nature.
64. In paragraph 2, the author mentions the Amazon pink river dolphin to show ______.
A. the number of Amazon dolphins is on the rise
B. freshwater vertebrates are at risk of extinction
C. there are no positive measures to protect nature
D. some of the world’s wild animals are in decline
65. What can we learn about people’s response to the issue mentioned in the passage
A. It makes sense to focus on a particular species.
B. Preventing the loss of habitats by 2030 is certain to happen.
C. New agreement on the prevention of habitat loss will be in vain.
D. The Caribbean wildlife has been well protected in recent decades.
66. Which of the following is the best title of the passage
A. The COP15 Biodiversity Framework B. Wildlife Population Declining Sharply
C. Urgent Action to Save the Earth D. Correct Interpretation of LPI
Section C
Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each
sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
A. A. The study shows parents of older children were more likely to talk about their own weight
with the child.
B. They found parents with better family communication were more likely to participate in
family meals.
C. There was no significant difference between male and female children in this study.
D. This was the first study specifically to examine the home eating habits of adult patients.
E. Previous study has shown parental obesity(肥胖) is the strongest risk for children’s obesity.
F. Someone has no power to influence the family, but they are influencing each other.
Engaging in Family Meals
Engaging in family meals may be a matter of improving communication and support at home.
A new study in the Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior, published by Elsevier, connects
less family discouragement and better family communication with a higher likelihood to eat
evening family meals and family breakfasts together, and not in front of a television. The
researchers surveyed 259 patients who participated in weight management and weight loss
programs at the Ohio State University or Wake Forest University. _____67_____
“It’s important to note all family members in the home have influence,” lead study author
Keeley J. Pratt, PhD, the Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, USA, said of the findings that any
family member can influence the adoption and maintenance of healthy patterns and behaviors in the
home. _____68_____ The study also found parents who perceived their child to be overweight were
8
more than four times as likely to talk to them about the kid’s weight, also called “weight talk.”
“While open communication with children about health is beneficial, it’s important to ensure
communication directly about children’s weight is not harmful in their development of a healthy
body image and behaviors. That includes older children and adolescents who are at greater risk of
developing eating disorders and disordered eating behaviors,” Professor Pratt said. _____69_____
As kids grow up, the relationship between kids and their parents becomes better.
_____70_____ “Understanding these associations will provide essential evidence needed to
design future family-based interventions for these patients to help in their behavior change and
weight loss, prevent the beginning of obesity in children, and enhance positive family meal
practices and healthy communication about weight,” Professor Pratt said.
IV. Summary Writing
71. Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in
no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
Graduates Turn to Teaching
China has witnessed a 66-fold increase in the number of applicants for teaching qualification
tests over the past decade, and experts say the popularity has mainly been driven by more
graduates chasing stable jobs. According to the latest figures from the Ministry of Education, the
number of applicants for teaching exams each year has grown from 172,000 to 11.44 million in the
past decade.
Experts said the sharp increase corresponds with the increase in teachers’ salaries and status
within society, and it is expected to bring about an overall improvement in quality teaching.
However, another big reason for the enthusiasm for teaching posts is that the challenging and
complicated employment situation is driving graduates toward stable jobs such as working as
teachers and government officials.
Chu Zhaohui, a senior researcher at the National Institute of Education Sciences, said the
popularity of teaching posts is closely associated with people’s changing perception of the
economic situation, job stability and security, which are major concerns for graduates.
In view of the coronavirus epidemic(新冠病毒) in recent years, many college graduates just
want a stable job, so teaching suddenly becomes a very popular profession, and many students
from well-known universities have joined the competition. Of course, everyone has their own
ideas. Take Wang Lin for example. Wang Lin, who graduated from a famous university, said she
had wanted to be a history teacher since middle school, inspired by her own history teacher. She
added she had a good impression of her teachers from an early age and was grateful to those who
had taught her. In fact, there are many such cases.
While passing the teaching qualification test is the first step to becoming a teacher in China,
landing a post at schools in big cities can be very competitive.
