He started with tys and even brke a cmputer,which made his parents nt t pleased.As he gt lder,he shifted frm breaking things t building things, which greatly cmfrted his parents. In middle schl,he started wrking n prjects in his kitchen labratry,and his first prject was making bifuels.
Althugh Jaggi's parents initially thught his experiments were just a byhd fancy, he remained determined t make a difference t the envirnment. Eventually,his parents came arund and started supprting his dreams. Jaggi's interest cntinued as he grew up, but he fcused mre n slving real prblems,especially thse related t the envirnment.
At 17, Jaggi went beynd his schl prjects and c-funded Ecviate, a cmpany that uses technlgy t slve everyday energy and envirnmental prblems. He planned t transfrm peple's idea that ging green is expensive, by making available a series f affrdable prducts that are easy t use. Thrugh Ecviate, he designed prducts that culd cntribute t a greener future. One f his ntable inventins was the “CO2ube”, a device that culd reduce carbn emissins,and it's available t many peple at lw prices.
Yung Jaggi, nw a third-grade cllege student studying engineering and ecnmics, has becme a famus ec-innvatr and his cmpany is develping prmisingly. Hwever, Jaggi's visin t save the envirnment ges beynd creating prducts. He plans t launch an nline platfrm thrugh Ecviate, which will encurage yung students interested in science and technlgy t get actively invlved in innvatin and inventin.Students can submit a science prject nline,and talk abut the help that they need t make the prject a reality.

Abut 12% f the ttal glbal energy demand cmes frm heating and cling hmes and businesses. A new study suggests that using undergrund water t maintain cmfrtable temperatures culd reduce cnsumptin f natural gas and electricity in this sectin by 40% in the US. The apprach is called ATES, shrt fr aquifer thermal energy strage (含水层热能储存).
“We need strage t absrb energy frm the sun and wind. It's crucial t creating affrdable, reliable, and deeply envirnmental-friendly electricity systems. Mst peple are interested in batteries and ther kinds f electrical strage. But we were wndering whether there was any pprtunity t use gethermal(地热的)energy strage," said first authr A.T.D Perera.“With ATES, energy can be stred fr a lng perid f time, withut adding an additinal burden t the grid(输电网).”
ATES is a pleasantly simple cncept that takes advantage f the heat-absrbing prperty f water and the natural gelgical features f the planet. Yu simply pull existing undergrund water up and heat it at the surface in the summer with envirnmental heat r energy. Then yu send it back dwn. It stays fairly ht because the Earth is a gd insulatr (绝热体).
“Unlike abve-grund tank-based water r ice strage systems, ATES will nt need space. It's als mre efficient and can supprt larger cmmunities in cling r heating than traditinal gethermal heat pump systems that rely n heat mving with the undergrund sil," added c-authr Hng Tianzhen.
A majr benefit f ATES is that it will becme mre efficient as weather becmes mre extreme in the cming years due t climate change. The htter summers and severer winters culd increase the amunt f free thermal energy that can be stred with ATES.“It's very much a realistic thing t d and this wrk is really abut shwing its value," said Perera. "This technlgy is ready t g,s t speak. We just need t d it.”
28.What d we knw abut ATES?
A.It is technlgically demanding.
B.It is aimed at replacing natural energy.
C.It helps achieve an envirnmentally friendly sciety.
D.It mainly relies n batteries t functin.
29.Hw des Hng Tianzhen explain ATES's advantages?
A.By giving examples. B.By discussing results.
C.By analyzing principles. D.By making cmparisns.
30.Which will affect ATES's efficiency mst?
A.Insulated materials.B.Temperature variatins.
C.The duratin f strage.D.The categry f energy.
31.What can be the best title fr the text?
A.A Slutin t Green Cling and Heating
B.A Turning Pint in Energy Usage
C.A Transfrmatin in the US Electricity System
D.A Discvery Abut Gethermal Energy Strage

That artificial fd dyes(染料)are unhealthy is nt news. Sme are knwn t cause hyperactivity(多动症)in sme children, affecting their ability t learn. But regulatry agencies arund the wrld dn't necessarily agree n which fd dyes are a prblem, r why. That may sn change. A 2021 peer-reviewed reprt by Califrnia's Office f Envirnmental Health Hazard Assessment cncluded that artificial fd dyes“cause r wrsen neurbehaviral prblems in sme children”and that the current levels that are regarded safe fr cnsumptin by the federal gvernment are t high.
Califrnia is nw cnsidering requiring warning labels n fd prducts and dietary supplements cntaining the seven mst cmmnly used artificial dyes. The warning label requirement wuld put Califrnia n par with the Eurpean Unin, which since 2010 has required fd prducts cntaining certain artificial fd dyes t carry warning labels abut their negative effect n activity and attentin in children.
Artificial dyes are used in fds fr ne reasn:t make prducts lk prettier. Bright clrs make candies appealing, especially t kids. But dyes are als in chclate cake mixes,salad dressings and ther prducts that dn't seem t cry ut fr a clr bst.
In Eurpe, it was the 2010 label lawmaking that triggered(引发)cmpanies' decisins t refrmulate.“If yu're a cmpany,yu d nt want t put a warning label n yur prduct.”says Lefferts, an envirnmental health cnsultant.Warning labels are why Eurpean Starburst Fruit Chews are nw clred with natural prducts,nt the artificial dyes that brighten their Nrth American cunterparts (同类商品).
Given that artificial fd dyes are used far mre than needed,we need t be mre cautius.After all,we dn't dye fresh fruits and vegetables,but we d dye candy and sprinkles,pints ut Je Schwarcz, a chemistry prfessr at McGill University in Mntreal."The fds in which yu find fd dyes are fds that are pr in nutritin."he says."If yu limit fds that cntain fd dyes,yu autmatically make yur diet better."
32.What can we learn abut artificial fd dyes frm paragraph 1?
A.The fact that they are harmful is newly revealed.
B.A 2021 reprt cnfirmed their negative effects.
C.Regulatry agencies cnsider them a serius prblem.
D.The Federal gvernment thinks their current standard t high.
33.What des the underlined part"n par with"in paragraph 2 mean?
A.In line with.B.In ppsitin t.C.Ahead f.D.Behind.
34.Which might be a pssible result f the new rule accrding t the article?
A.Fd cmpanies will stp clring their prducts.
B.Mre fresh fruits and vegetables will appear in the market.
C.It will be hard t find packaged fds withut warning labels f dyes.
D.Fd cmpanies may replace artificial dyes with natural prducts.
35.What's Je Schwarcz's attitude twards artificial fd dyes?
A.Apprving.B.Neutral. C.Cncerned.D.Tlerant.

When Param Jaggi was five years ld,he had a passin t take things apart t see what was inside. He started with tys and even brke a cmputer,which made his parents nt t pleased.As he gt lder,he shifted frm breaking things t building things, which greatly cmfrted his parents. In middle schl,he started wrking n prjects in his kitchen labratry,and his first prject was making bifuels.
Althugh Jaggi's parents initially thught his experiments were just a byhd fancy, he remained determined t make a difference t the envirnment. Eventually,his parents came arund and started supprting his dreams. Jaggi's interest cntinued as he grew up, but he fcused mre n slving real prblems,especially thse related t the envirnment.
At 17, Jaggi went beynd his schl prjects and c-funded Ecviate, a cmpany that uses technlgy t slve everyday energy and envirnmental prblems. He planned t transfrm peple's idea that ging green is expensive, by making available a series f affrdable prducts that are easy t use. Thrugh Ecviate, he designed prducts that culd cntribute t a greener future. One f his ntable inventins was the “CO2ube”, a device that culd reduce carbn emissins,and it's available t many peple at lw prices.
Yung Jaggi, nw a third-grade cllege student studying engineering and ecnmics, has becme a famus ec-innvatr and his cmpany is develping prmisingly. Hwever, Jaggi's visin t save the envirnment ges beynd creating prducts. He plans t launch an nline platfrm thrugh Ecviate, which will encurage yung students interested in science and technlgy t get actively invlved in innvatin and inventin.Students can submit a science prject nline,and talk abut the help that they need t make the prject a reality.

Abut 12% f the ttal glbal energy demand cmes frm heating and cling hmes and businesses. A new study suggests that using undergrund water t maintain cmfrtable temperatures culd reduce cnsumptin f natural gas and electricity in this sectin by 40% in the US. The apprach is called ATES, shrt fr aquifer thermal energy strage (含水层热能储存).
“We need strage t absrb energy frm the sun and wind. It's crucial t creating affrdable, reliable, and deeply envirnmental-friendly electricity systems. Mst peple are interested in batteries and ther kinds f electrical strage. But we were wndering whether there was any pprtunity t use gethermal(地热的)energy strage," said first authr A.T.D Perera.“With ATES, energy can be stred fr a lng perid f time, withut adding an additinal burden t the grid(输电网).”
ATES is a pleasantly simple cncept that takes advantage f the heat-absrbing prperty f water and the natural gelgical features f the planet. Yu simply pull existing undergrund water up and heat it at the surface in the summer with envirnmental heat r energy. Then yu send it back dwn. It stays fairly ht because the Earth is a gd insulatr (绝热体).
“Unlike abve-grund tank-based water r ice strage systems, ATES will nt need space. It's als mre efficient and can supprt larger cmmunities in cling r heating than traditinal gethermal heat pump systems that rely n heat mving with the undergrund sil," added c-authr Hng Tianzhen.
A majr benefit f ATES is that it will becme mre efficient as weather becmes mre extreme in the cming years due t climate change. The htter summers and severer winters culd increase the amunt f free thermal energy that can be stred with ATES.“It's very much a realistic thing t d and this wrk is really abut shwing its value," said Perera. "This technlgy is ready t g,s t speak. We just need t d it.”
28.What d we knw abut ATES?
A.It is technlgically demanding.
B.It is aimed at replacing natural energy.
C.It helps achieve an envirnmentally friendly sciety.
D.It mainly relies n batteries t functin.
29.Hw des Hng Tianzhen explain ATES's advantages?
A.By giving examples. B.By discussing results.
C.By analyzing principles. D.By making cmparisns.
30.Which will affect ATES's efficiency mst?
A.Insulated materials.B.Temperature variatins.
C.The duratin f strage.D.The categry f energy.
31.What can be the best title fr the text?
A.A Slutin t Green Cling and Heating
B.A Turning Pint in Energy Usage
C.A Transfrmatin in the US Electricity System
D.A Discvery Abut Gethermal Energy Strage

That artificial fd dyes(染料)are unhealthy is nt news. Sme are knwn t cause hyperactivity(多动症)in sme children, affecting their ability t learn. But regulatry agencies arund the wrld dn't necessarily agree n which fd dyes are a prblem, r why. That may sn change. A 2021 peer-reviewed reprt by Califrnia's Office f Envirnmental Health Hazard Assessment cncluded that artificial fd dyes“cause r wrsen neurbehaviral prblems in sme children”and that the current levels that are regarded safe fr cnsumptin by the federal gvernment are t high.
Califrnia is nw cnsidering requiring warning labels n fd prducts and dietary supplements cntaining the seven mst cmmnly used artificial dyes. The warning label requirement wuld put Califrnia n par with the Eurpean Unin, which since 2010 has required fd prducts cntaining certain artificial fd dyes t carry warning labels abut their negative effect n activity and attentin in children.
Artificial dyes are used in fds fr ne reasn:t make prducts lk prettier. Bright clrs make candies appealing, especially t kids. But dyes are als in chclate cake mixes,salad dressings and ther prducts that dn't seem t cry ut fr a clr bst.
In Eurpe, it was the 2010 label lawmaking that triggered(引发)cmpanies' decisins t refrmulate.“If yu're a cmpany,yu d nt want t put a warning label n yur prduct.”says Lefferts, an envirnmental health cnsultant.Warning labels are why Eurpean Starburst Fruit Chews are nw clred with natural prducts,nt the artificial dyes that brighten their Nrth American cunterparts (同类商品).
Given that artificial fd dyes are used far mre than needed,we need t be mre cautius.After all,we dn't dye fresh fruits and vegetables,but we d dye candy and sprinkles,pints ut Je Schwarcz, a chemistry prfessr at McGill University in Mntreal."The fds in which yu find fd dyes are fds that are pr in nutritin."he says."If yu limit fds that cntain fd dyes,yu autmatically make yur diet better."
32.What can we learn abut artificial fd dyes frm paragraph 1?
A.The fact that they are harmful is newly revealed.
B.A 2021 reprt cnfirmed their negative effects.
C.Regulatry agencies cnsider them a serius prblem.
D.The Federal gvernment thinks their current standard t high.
33.What des the underlined part"n par with"in paragraph 2 mean?

34.Which might be a pssible result f the new rule accrding t the article?
A.Fd cmpanies will stp clring their prducts.
B.Mre fresh fruits and vegetables will appear in the market.
C.It will be hard t find packaged fds withut warning labels f dyes.
D.Fd cmpanies may replace artificial dyes with natural prducts.
35.What's Je Schwarcz's attitude twards artificial fd dyes?
