Acrss the wrld, humans purchase arund 1. 3 billin single-use plastic water bttles a day. Because nly abut 9% f plastic is recycled, the vast majrity f thse bttles wind up in landfills, the cean, r elsewhere in nature.
When beach-lving Madisn nticed thse plastic bttles during her family's trips t Califrnia, the 12-year-ld 'just felt like this needed t change, "she tld Smithsnian Magazine.
S as she began thinking abut what t d fr her schl science fair back in 2021, the idea f a prject centered n reducing plastic pllutin quickly came t her mind: she wuld design an eatable water bttle called the Ec-Her.
"One f my biggest ambitins fr my prject was wanting t help the wrld, "the cnfident yung inventr said in a vide n the website.
T bring her idea t life, Madisn built upn the already established methd by experimenting with cmmn fd materials. She als tk inspiratin frm previus versins f eatable water bttles, thugh she fcused n making hers bigger and mre durable. She fund that the cmbinatin f water, lemn juice, natural gum, and Alginic acid(褐藻酸) resulted in a gel puch that wuldn't break, culd hld up t 3/4 cup f water, and wuld last in the fridge fr three weeks.
Thugh she'd like t imprve the Ec-Her by making it able t hld mre water, she believes her current versin wuld wrk well as a replacement fr the paper cups used by runners in races. All ne needs t d is bite a hle in the water ball, drink the water, and then eat the puch r thrw it away t bidegrade.
Madisn hpes the Ec-Her inspires thers t take better care f the planet. "It desn't necessarily have t be in a big way, " she tld Smithsnian. "Peple can still make a difference in the wrld, even if it's just in a small way. "

Demgraphic changes, such as aging ppulatins and declining birth rates, pse challenges as well as ffer pprtunities fr industries and cuntries. T vercme the challenges and seize the pprtunities, especially t achieve lng-term ecnmic sustainability, ecnmies need t enhance plicies prmting innvatins.
Nw many cuntries in East Asia are facing the aging ppulatin and declining wrking-age ppulatin prblem. Cmpared with ther advanced cuntries, Japan encuntered the ppulatin aging prblem at a slightly earlier stage, starting in the mid-1990s. As Japan's percentage f elderly ppulatin t the ttal ppulatin increased, it impacted the cuntry's ecnmy, leading t a cntractin in dmestic demand and decline in bth prductin and cnsumptin, and restricting the grwth f ecnmy.
Sme innvative cmpanies have actively increased utward FDI(Freign Direct Investment), prviding cst advantages frm inexpensive verseas labr t maintain their cst cmpetitiveness. Hwever, the glbal ecnmy is facing the challenge f declining trade wing t the prtectinism practiced by certain cuntries. Cnsequently, the chances f bsting grwth thrugh utward FDI may be limited.
Develping artificial intelligence is anther slutin t the negative impacts f the demgraphic changes. AI and rbtics will play a crucial rle in stimulating prductivity and innvatin by making payment fr the decline in the wrking-age ppulatin, and the fllwing increase in prductivity will in turn raise the demand fr labr by creating new emplyment pprtunities.
AI, rbtics and ther advanced technlgies give rise t new tasks within their fields and acrss ther sectrs. Therefre, it is necessary t emply cperatin plicies t supprt crpratins that prmte innvatins by increasing investment in research and develpment, facilitating the grwth f new cmpanies, and building a perfect system t prtect intellectual prperties. Since AI and rbtics may replace certain jbs, it is essential t address the ptential challenges they may create in the labr market and wrk ut strategies t ensure a balanced and cmprehensive transitin.
28. What d we knw abut demgraphic changes frm the first tw paragraphs?
A. There is n need t wrry since the changes ffer pprtunities.
B. The changes wn't affect the lng-term ecnmic sustainability.
C. Japan is the nly advanced cuntry facing the changes at present.
D. Things shuld be dne t vercme the challenges psed by the changes.
29. What des the underlined wrd "cntractin" mean in the secnd paragraph?
A. Push. B. Decrease. C. Pause. D. Change.
30. What is the writer's attitude t FDI?
A. Favrable. B. Intlerant. C. Objective. D. Indifferent.
31. What des the writer advise t tackle the new tasks psed by advanced technlgies?
A. Withdrawing investment in research and develpment.
B. Adpting plicies that encurage innvatin f crpratins.
C. Establishing new cmpanies t prtect intellectual prperties.

Figuring ut bidiversity patterns and detecting rare r just-gd-at-hiding species has lng psed challenges fr ecsystem mnitring and cnservatin effrts. Traditinal survey methds are labr intensive and cver limited areas. Nw, emerging envirnmental DNA(eDNA) techniques pen new pssibilities.
Scientists cllect water r sil samples frm an envirnment and extract(提取) any DNA traces left behind by rganisms. This is the envirnmental DNA(eDNA). They then use ne f the tw analysis methds -quantitative PCR (qPCR)r DNA sequencing (DNA 测序). Similar t COVID tests, qPCR is used t detect if a specific species' DNA is in the sample. Fr example, researchers tested river water eDNA t see if endangered fish X was present. When it was detected, they cnfirmed that the fish lived in that river withut directly seeing it. DNA sequencing analyzes all DNA in the sample at nce. Scientists can then match the DNA barcdes t databases t identify which species were in the sampled envirnment.
Althugh eDNA sampling cannt identify new species r thse nly knwn frm phts and vides if they are nt already listed in the reference databases, the real pwer f it lies in its ability t capture a wide range f rganisms. With just ne sample, scientists can detect all kinds f living things, frm bacteria t whales, in almst any envirnment where life exists, including the deep sea and undergrund caves. One f the mst significant advantages f eDNA sampling is that it allws scientists t detect species that are difficult t see r capture. This is particularly useful when studying rare r very small species, r when wrking in envirnments like dark water where visibility is limited.
This is just the start. Imagine a future where eDNA data culd be cllected frm the mst remte ceans by autnmus vehicles, analyzed by the drne r n bard a research vessel(船舰), and integrated with ther mnitring data s marine managers and the public can see near-real-time data abut the cnditin f the cean. Science fictin? Nt any mre.
32. What's the authr's purpse f mentining the example in Paragraph 2?
A. T explain the prcess f qPCR analysis methd.
B. T intrduce the definitin f envirnmental DNA.
C. T tell the difference between tw analysis methds.
D. T shw the similarity between qPCR and COVID tests.
33. What's the advantage f eDNA sampling?
A. It can detect species frm phts and vides.
B. It can help scientists capture endangered species.
C. It enables scientists t wrk in invisible envirnment.
D. It can identify any living creature with a sample f it.
34. What culd eDNA data be applied t in the future?
A. Studying micrbial cmmunities. B. Analyzing diversity changes ver time.
C. Cllecting species in new envirnments. D. Offering statistics fr cean supervisin.
35. What's the main idea f the text?
A. Scientists have made a breakthrugh in undersea research.
B. Rare species have been discvered with tw analysis methds.
C. New bidiversity mnitring techniques are arund the crner.
D. Traditinal survey methds are abandned fr their shrtcmings.

While the sun washed ver the grass f my grandmther's frnt garden, I sank int ne f her armchairs familiar t me. Life, as I knew it, had changed. My belved grandmther, my Nanny, as a "parent" in the absence f my father, had cancer. It was terminal (晚期的).
As she watched Getaway, a Sunday afternn TV prgram, she remarked t me that she'd never left Australia and that nw she never wuld. Seeing her restricted t "travel" by watching TV, I swallwed the sadness that came with knwing that chapters f her life were t be left unwritten.
At wrk, feeling helpless, I wiped tables and tk rders and thught. Hard. The Saturday afternn lunch rush was nt enugh t stp me frm my thughts. Cllapsed with grwing srrw, I was reminded f the pwer f Facebk and the cllective strength f human sympathy. I raced frm the end f my shift t ask strangers n the Internet fr help.
My Nanny Del has cancer. It's terminal and she will never see the wrld. Please send her pstcards s she can see the wrld frm her armchair. I can ffer nthing but gratitude.

Days turned t weeks: Nthing. And Nanny's health declined rapidly. I was trying t balance my full-time study, babysitting and waiting tables with the tiring respnsibility f caring fr my grandmther. As I helped Nanny in the early hurs f thse mrnings, she wuld chat t me, smetimes reflectins f her lifetime, and ther times, the disturbance caused by medicatin.
