The summer reading seasn is here. Sme peple will pt fr paperbacks because they're easy t brrw and share. Others will g fr e-readers. But which is the mre envirnmentally sustainable ptin?
Accrding t 2023 data frm the literary industry research grup Wrds Rated, when it cmes t pulp(纸浆) and paper, print bk publishing is the wrld's third-largest industrial greenhuse gas prducer, and 32 millin trees are cut dwn each year in the United States t make paper fr bks.
S many publishers are switching t n-demand printing. Fr example, Chrnicle Bks, are reducing their initial print runs t see hw well the titles sell befre they print mre. “We felt that it was better t have a higher cst and have less waste,” said Chrnic le Bks president, Tyrrell Mahney.
Publishers are als rethinking bk design. It might be a surprise, but certain fnts(字体) can be mre climate-friendly by using less ink and less paper.
Digital reading seems t have a cnsiderable ec-advantage ver print because it is paperless, s it saves trees, pulping and shipping. Mrever, tech cmpanies that make e-readers such as Amazn, which sells the market-leading Kindle e-reader, ffer recycling prgrams fr ld devices.
“By chsing e-bks as an alternative t print, Kindle readers helped save an estimated2.3 millin metric tns f carbn emissins ver a tw-year perid,” said Crey Badcck, head f Kindle prduct and marketing.
But digital devices als cme with a substantial carbn ftprint, mainly at the prducing stage. Their cases are made with fssil-fuel-derived plastics and the minerals in their batteries require resurce-heavy mining.
Berners-Lee, the authr f The Carbn Ftprint f Everything , said the average e-reader has a carbn ftprint f arund 80 punds. “This means that I've gt t read abut 36 small paperback bks-wrth n it befre yu break even,” he said.
“If yu buy an e-reader and yu read lads and lads f bks n it, then it’s the lwest carbn thing t d,” Berners-Lee said. “But if I buy it, read a cuple f bks, and decide that I prefer paperback bks, then it's the wrst f all wrlds.”
28. Why are publishers switching t n-demand printing?
A. T further reduce csts.
B. T increase market sales.
C. T make bks mre durable.
D. T be mre envirnmentally friendly.
29. What is the authr's attitude twards digital devices' carbn ftprint?
A. Optimistic. B. Dismissive. C. Objective. D. Defensive.
30. What can we say abut the carbn ftprint f reading accrding t Berners-Lee?
A. Heavy e-readers will have a lwer carbn ftprint.
B. Paperback readers cntribute less t carbn emissins.
C. The carbn ftprint f reading is unwrthy f attentin.
D. There's n way t measure the carbn ftprint f e-readers.
31. What is the best title fr the text?
A. An Ec-Debate: Is My E-Reader Really Greener?
B. The Decline f Paper: A Lk at Mdern Publishing
C. The Future f Reading: E-ink Technlgy Advances
D. What's Better fr the Climate: A Paper Bk r an E-Reader?

In the 1960s and '70s, a series f questinable experiments claimed t prve that plants culd behave like humans, and that they had feelings, respnded t music and culd even take a lie detectr test.
Thugh mst f thse claims have since been prved wrng, climate jurnalist Zë Schlanger says a new wave f research suggests that plants are indeed “intelligent” in cmplex ways.
In her new bk, The Light Eaters: Hw the Unseen Wrld f Plant Intelligence Offers a New Understanding f Life n Earth, Schlanger, a staff reprter at The Atlantic, writes abut hw plants use infrmatin frm the envirnment, and frm the past, t make “chices” fr the future.
Schlanger ntes that sme tmat plants, when being eaten by caterpillars(毛毛虫), fill their leaves with a chemical that makes them s unappetizing that the caterpillars start eating each ther instead. Crn plants have been knwn t sample the saliva(唾液) f caterpillars——and then use that infrmatin t release a chemical t attract bees that will attack the caterpillars.
We have nthing at the mment t suggest that plants feel pain, but d they sense being tuched, r sense being eaten, and respnd with a series f defensive chemicals that suggest that they really want t prevent whatever's ging n frm cntinuing? Abslutely. S this is where we get int tricky territry. D we ascribe human cncepts like pain... t a plant, even thugh it has n brain? And we can't ask it if it feels pain. We have nt fund pain receptrs(感受器) in a plant. But then again, I mean, the devil's advcate view here is that we nly fund the mechanreceptrs fr pain in humans, like, fairly recently. But we d knw plants are receiving inputs all the time. They knw when a caterpillar is chewing n them, and they will respnd with defensiveness.
Schlanger acknwledges that ur understanding f plants is still develping—as are the definitins f “intelligence” and “cnsciusness”. “Science is there fr bservatin and t experiment, but it can't answer questins abut this cmplicated cncept f intelligence and cnsciusness,” she says.
32. What did experiments in the 1960s and '70s claim abut plants?
A. They culd predict natural disasters.
B. They had emtins and culd react t music.
C. They culd slve cmplex math prblems.
D. They culd cmmunicate with humans.
33. What d tmat plants d when facing caterpillars?
A. They signal t ther plants fr help.
B. They let ut a cry t warn the insects.
C. They make themselves mre appetizing.
D. They prduce a chemical t defend themselves.
34. What des the underlined wrd “ascribe” mean in Paragraph 5?
A. Apply. B. Reduce. C. Translate. D. Limit.
35. What des the text suggest abut the definitins f “intelligence” and “cnsciusness”?
A. They are utdated and n lnger relevant.
B. They are t cmplex fr scientific study.
C. They are still develping and subject t change.
D. They are well-established and universally agreed upn.

It was an rdinary weekend. The supermarket was crwded with shppers grabbing their weekly grceries. I was n exceptin, purchasing fresh prduce and a few cmfrt fd items, and then I reached the checkut line. As the cashier scanned my items and I reached fr my wallet, my heart sank. It was missing. N cash, n cards, just an empty pcket and a grwing sense f panic.
“I'm s srry,” I stammered(结结巴巴地说), my face burning red as I began t gather my grceries, ready t make my embarrassed retreat.
But a calm vice frm behind interrupted my retreat. “N wrries at all,” a stranger said in a cmfrting tne. “I'll cver this.”'
I turned t see a wman with kind eyes and a warm smile, hlding ut her card t the cashier. She had a cart full f her wn grceries, yet here she was, ffering t pay fr a stranger's mistake.
“Are yu sure?” I asked, my vice filled with a mix f gratitude and disbelief.
“Abslutely,” she replied. “But I’ll need smething frm yu in return.”
“Anything, ”I said, ready t d whatever it tk t repay her kindness.
“Prmise me yu'll pay it frward,” she said, her gaze (目光) meeting mine with a sincerity that tuched my heart.
I ndded, my prmise as firm as the reslve t make a difference. “I prmise.”
As I left the stre with my grceries, I culdn't shake the feeling that I had just been given a gift—a chance t make a difference in smene else's life.
Mnths later, I fund myself driving thrugh a quiet cuntryside, the scenery passing by peacefully. Up ahead, I nticed a lne figure by the radside, a backpacker with her thumb ut, trying t ask fr a ride. Car after car sped past, leaving her in their dust. Smething abut her lne figure tuched my heart.
