When Tanvi Sinha first gt int accunting 17 years ag, she wrked frm the ffice every day, even Saturdays in the busy seasn. She enjyed lunches ut with clleagues and pprtunities t learn just by listening and watching thers. She grew prfessinally rapidly. Hwever, a new reprt frm Gallup finds that large numbers f wrkers, especially Gen Zers, are nt engaged with their jbs in the USA.
The Gallup survey f rughly 67,000 peple in 2022 fund nly 32% f wrkers are engaged with their wrk cmpared with 36% in 2020. The share f wrkers fund t be“ disengaged” has risen since 2020, while the share f thse in the middle, thse cnsidered "nt engaged", has remained abut the same.
Engagement had been rising in the decade befre 2020, but started t fall in 2021. Yunger wrkers have seen a bigger drp in engagement than lder nes. Thse under 35 reprted feeling less heard and less cared abut at wrk. Fewer Gen Zers and yung peple reprted having smene at wrk wh encurages their develpment and fewer pprtunities t learn and grw.
Having disengaged wrkers can be highly damaging the cmpanies. Emplyees, wh are nt getting mst f their wrkplace needs satisfied, ften share their negativity with ther peple. That culd bring dwn cmpany mrale(士气). And, the whle cmpany will stay in a strange situatin: Half-dead. And the number f wrkers wh said their cmpany cares abut their verall wellbeing has fallen dramatically, frm abut 50% early in the pandemic, when many cmpanies prvided all kinds f accmmdatins fr emplyees, t nthing tday, which, hwever, wrsens the engagement.

Humans prduce mre than 300 millin tns f plastic every year. Almst half f that winds up in landfills, and up t 12 millin tns pllute the ceans. S far there, is n effective way t get rid f it, but a new study suggests an answer may lie in the stmachs f sme hungry wrms.
Researchers in Spain and England recently fund that the wrms f the greater w ax mth can break dwn plyethylene, which accunts fr 40% f plastics. The team left 100 wax wrms n a cmmercial plyethylene shpping bag fr 12 hurs, and the wrms cnsumed and brke dwn abut 92 milligrams, r almst 3% f it. T cnfirm that the wrms’ chewing alne was nt respnsible fr the plyethylene breakdwn, the researchers made sme wrms int paste(糊状物) and applied it t plastic films. 14 hurs later the films had lst 13% f their mass — apparently brken dwn by enzymes(酶) frm the wrms’ stmachs. Their findings were published in Current Bilgy in 2017.
Federica Bertcchini’ c-authr f the study, says the wrms’ ability t break dwn their everyday fd — beeswax — als allws them t break dwn plastic. " Wax is a cmplex mixture, but the basic bnd in plyethylene, the carbn-carbn bnd, is there as well, " she explains, " The w ax wrm evlved a methd r system t break this bnd. "
Jennifer DeBruyn, a micrbilgist at the University f Tennessee, wh was nt invlved in the study, says it is nt surprising that such wrms can break dwn plyethylene. But cmpared with previus studies, she finds the speed f breaking dwn in this ne exciting. The next step, DeBruyn says, will be t identify the cause f the breakdwn. Is it an enzyme prduced by the wrm itself r by its gut micrbes(肠道微生物)?
Bertcchini agrees and hpes her team’ s findings might ne day help emply the enzyme t break dwn plastics in landfills. But she expects using the chemical in sme kind f industrial prcess — nt simply " millins f wrms thrwn n tp f the plastic."
32. What can we learn abut the wrms in the study?
A. They take plastics as their everyday fd.
B. They are newly evlved creatures.
C. They can cnsume plastics.
D. They wind up in landfills.
33. Accrding t Jennifer DeBruyn, the next step f the study is t .
A. identify ther means f the breakdwn
B. find ut the surce f the enzyme
C. cnfirm the research findings
D. increase the breakdwn speed
34. It can be inferred frm the last paragraph that the chemical might .
A. help t raise wrms B. help make plastic bags
C. be used t clean the ceans D. be prduced in factries in future
35. What is the main purpse f the passage?
A. T explain a study methd n wrms.
B. T intrduce the diet f a special wrm.
C. T present a way t break dwn plastics.
D. T prpse new means t keep ec-balance.

Dear Peter,
Last week witnessed my participatin in the city-wide English and Chinese language cmpetitin fr middle schl students. I wanted t share with yu my invaluable experience.
During the cmpetitin, I had t demnstrate my language skills thrugh different activities, like a speech and a written test. A bit nervus thugh I was initially, I managed t stay fcused and tried my utmst. What I have gleaned frm this cmpetitin is that new expressins and vcabulary shuld be accumulated n a daily basis rather than cramming befre tests. Additinally, I had the chance t interact with peer students frm diversified schls and t make new friends. Overall, it was an enriching and fruitful experience.
I hpe t hear frm yu sn and learn abut any cmpetitins r events that yu have participated in.
Best regards,
Li Hua

【原文】W: Gd evening, everyne. I recently learnt Arabic in Cair as part f my degree. My interest in the language was due t the passin f ur Arabic lecturer and as the curse prgressed, my interest in the culture als grew with it. I cnsidered studying in the Middle East, but ultimately decided n Cair due t its energetic cultural scene. Hwever, in the city, we faced sme challenges, including difficulties finding a htel and accmmdatin as we were a grup f unmarried individuals. Once settled, the culture shck was intense fr sme f us. One member f ur grup returned hme within the first week. Luckily I became accustmed t the life in Cair gradually. The biggest challenge f learning Arabic is the discnnectin between the written and the spken frms. Despite these challenges, learning Arabic has been a rewarding experience, including absrbing myself in the culture and getting t knw the lcals and even negtiating at a lcal market. Highlights were being invited t a traditinal Arabic meal at ne f the lcals’ hme and being able t cnfidently cmmunicate. Overall, this experience was utside f my cmfrt zne and allwed me t learn and grw in interesting ways. I encurage thers t cnsider invlving themselves in new cultures and languages. Thanks fr listening.
