He was talking t the grundnut seller. “Yes, yes, I'm ready t leave nw. Cme! Hw many bks d yu want? Why did yu get wet in the rain? Yur mther must be getting wrried.”
Neil was tuched and turned t the seller. There was an instant when they bth made the perfect eye cntact. Neil had the lk f I knw what it is t be a father.

On a sunny but bitterly cld February day a line f small children snaked their way frm Dale t Dale Frt n the Haverfrdwest estuary. They were the last f mre than 2,000 vlunteers wh ver the last year have cllected, stred and put seagrass seeds int little bags, ready fr planting. These seagrass seeds were sn t jin thers n the seaflr a few hundred metres ff-shre frm Dale t recver tw hectares f seagrass meadw(草甸）。This recvery is the latest attempt t change a century f destructin.
In the UK we can nly estimate the lss but in Denmark, seagrass recrds dating back t the
1880s give a very serius and accurate picture. At the turn f the last century fishing was vital t
the Danish ecnmy. It was knwn then that seagrass meadws were a vital habitat fr yung sea
fish and s in 1908 btanist Carl Ostenfeld was asked t study the seagrasses then fund in all the
estuaries and entrance f Denmark. That study prvided a clear standard against which t measure
the lss f seagrass in Denmark, a lss that currently stands at 95 percent.
Why des this matter? Seagrass nt nly prvide a nurturing habitat fr fish but als stabilises the shre and absrbs energy,reducing the impact f strms. Bat anchrs(船锚）are ne cause f damage t seagrass; seashre develpment anther. But the main cause is river water pllutin, particularly nutrients frm fertiliser and dirty water. These excess nutrients cause algal(藻类） grwth that blankets the seagrass, cutting ut light, and then later,when it dies ff and rts,remves all xygen.
One f the imprtant messages is, if yu stp killing sea life and prtect it, then it des cme back. We can turn the ceans arund and we knw it makes sense ecnmically, fr human health and,f curse,fr the envirnment.
28.What did the kids d in Dale ver the last year?
A.Have an interesting trip.
B.Gather seagrass seeds.
C. Prtect seagrass frm snakes.
D.Make an imprtant study.
29.What can we knw abut Carl Ostenfeld's study?
A. It was carried ut in the UK and Denmark.
B. It cntributed t Danish ecnmy greatly.
C. It shwed the lss f seagrass in Denmark.
D. It made sme practical measures fr Denmark.
30.Which f the fllwing affects seagrass mst seriusly?
A.Algal grwth.
B.Seashre develpment.
C.Air pllutin.
D.Bats anchrs
31.What is the purpse f the text??
A. T shw recvering seagrass is beneficial.
B. T ask peple t plant much seagrass.
C.T present the dangers t seagrass.
D. T persuade peple t catch fewer sea fish.

The UK gvernment has a plan t reduce waste that shifts the respnsibility fr dispsal(处置）frm the state t the cmpanies that make it.
The legislatin requires waste prducers t pay int the system themselves r thrugh their suppliers that is what the gvernment termed, a “plluter pays” principal. Businesses will have t change their waste prcessing befre the tax cmes int play. This is similar t the anti-waste legislatin passed in France in February 2020 that prhibits the destructin(销毁）f unsld clthing, csmetics, hygiene prducts and electrical prducts. Cmpanies will have t reuse,r recycle the items.
Dealing with waste is a glbal prblem and we must deal with the ver 2 billin metric tns f slid waste generated every year. The Wrld Bank estimates that verall waste will increase t 3.4 billin tns if nthing is dne t change the situatin.
The demand fr legislatin like the tugh attitude the UK is taking has been increasing accrding t Psitive News. And it is nt just envirnmental grups calling fr the changes. This is a cnsumer driven mvement and peple are willing t pay mre fr sustainable brands. Jsh Bwden,c-funder f Nissue tld Psitive News.
What is abslutely certain is that lcal gvernments will save a lt f mney as the respnsibility shifts t the plluters. That culd be better invested in things like scial care r parks r libraries.” Other cuntries have made great prgress in reducing waste. Sweden's recycling prgram is s efficient that the cuntry is running ut f trash. The recycling rate is almst 99 percent and they are rapidly appraching zer waste. Tday, large cmpanies are greening their brands and mving t sustainable packaging including Clgate,Waitrse,Nestle, and Unilever which nw has recyclable black packaging. The gvernment f the UK hpes that ther cmpanies will fllw their example. A partnership between gvernment legislatin and private cmpanies will g a lng way t reducing the tns f waste ging int ur envirnment every year. Laws like the nes in the UK and France can be implemented arund the wrld.
32. Wh will pay fr the csts dealing with UK's waste in the future?
A.The UK gvernment.
B.The cmpanies.
C.The Wrld Bank
D.The custmers.
33.Hw shuld French shps deal with unsld gds?
A.By destrying them.
B.By thrwing them away.
C.By dnating them t pr peple.
D.By reusing them.
34.What des The Wrld Bank think f wrld waste dispsal prblem?
A.Serius. B.Optimistic. C.Uncntrlled. D.Hpeful.
35.What can we infer fr the last paragraph?
A.Lcal gvernments will spend mre mney cntrlling pllutin.
B.Almst all cmpanies are willing t reduce the waste
C.Sweden has dne a gd jb in dealing with waste.
D.Laws cntrlling waste in the UK and France is cmplete.

As muntains g,1,642-ft Squaw Peak isn't particularly grand. But its inviting views f western Massachusetts have tricked hikers int becming self-satisfied with its steep,slippery cliffs(悬崖），resulting in cuntless injuries and even deaths.
Henry Grant, a week shy f starting his freshman year at Ithaca Cllege, respected Squaw Peak's recrd.Therefre, he stayed a gd ten feet frm the edge while waiting fr his mther t catch up t him ne day. He watched 15 r s ther hikers enjy the vista; ne hiker, arund 60 and dressed in pink, was peeking ver the lip f the cliff with her husband.
When Grant's mther rejined him, the tw turned t cntinue n their way. Suddenly,he heard a heavy dull sund, he tld the Crnell Daily Sun. Then he heard smething chilling: “Paula! Paula!” a man yelled wildly. Grant wheeled arund. The wman in pink was n-where t be seen. She'd fallen ff the side f the muntain.
Several hikers immediately started lking fr her, but their view was blcked by trees.Grant tld his mther,“I hate t say this, but they're prbably ging t find a bdy.”
Uncertain they culd help, Grant and his mther headed dwn the trail. But when he saw hikers still searching, he decided t lend a hand. “My yung dumb brain was like, 'I can d it,'”” he says.After assuring his mther that he wuld be safe, he made a lng and difficult jurney alne, hping he wasn't t late.
After 15 minutes f scrambling ver the large rck, pushing past prickly(多刺的）brush,and slipping dwn patches f lse dirt, Grant sptted a figure abut 25 feet abve him. She was dressed in pink and crumpled in a kneeling psitin n a small rcky.
The wman had fallen abut 75 feet.

She was maning and barely making sense. Her head, arms, and legs were bleeding.
