Edward Davis was a prfessr wh wrked n cean research. Hwever, bred with writing death recrds f cean species, he quit his jb in 2007. Rather than spend any mre f his life recrding the dying, Edward decided t try t prtect the living creatures in the few re-maining areas f the cean.
These areas are the last wild places f the sea still undamaged by verfishing, pllutin and climate change. “It is necessary fr us t g t places that still lk like the cean as it was 500 years ag,” Edward says. “These places are the examples f sustainable(可持续的) develpment. Maybe we can’t bring all f the cean back t this state, but these places shw us what the ptential is.” Beneath the surface f a strmy sea ff Palau in the western Pacific lie varius lively crals. The tiny island natin has prtected 80 percent f its waters as a n-fishing area—the largest percentage f prtected cean area in the wrld. The remaining 20 percent can be fished nly by Palauans.
T prtect these places, Edward and his team started a prject n cean prtectin in 2008. Over the past years, the prject has helped create 22 cean reserves. These make up tw-thirds f the wrld’s fully prtected cean areas. Nw Edward and his team have set an even bigger gal—t prtect mre than a third f the wrld’s ceans fr the purpse f keeping bilgical diversity.
Fr Edward, ne f the mst satisfying aspects f his jb is wrking with lcal cmmuni-ties in the places he and his team are seeking t prtect.

Yu dn’t have t use a dandelin(蒲公英) t knw which way the wind blws. But it can help. Dandelin seeds fly freely in the wind. But thse seeds n any given dandelin have different fates. Sme are t flat nrth when the wind blws them, while thers are fated t fly east, suth, west r sme directin in between. “Hw d dandelin seeds respnd t the wind depends n where they sit n the dandelin head?” says Jena Shields, a biphysicist at Crnell University in Ithaca.
One day, Jena happened t watch her little child play with dandelins. She nticed that the dandelin seeds didn’t all fall ff the same. Sme came lse mre easily than thers, but it depended n hw the child blew n the seed heads. Jena gt the inspiratin fr the research frm it. S Jena set ut t study what was ging n.
She measured the frce it takes t blw dandelin seeds away. T start with, she glued (粘贴)a wire t the different seeds. Then she pulled them at varius angles. This seed-by-seed study mimicked what happens when the wind pushes them ver.
The findings shw that each seed falls ff mst easily in the wind frm ne directin, and seeds frm ne head dn’t g the same way. The feathery seeds n the side facing the wind will fall ff mst easily. The thers hld n mre tightly until the wind shifts. Besides, nce blwn ff a dandelin, a seed’s umbrella-like feather carries it n the wind that pulled it away. And it helps explain why the plants are s successful in spreading.
Hwever, Jena als fund an exceptin. A sudden strng blw was still able t blw all the seeds away in the same directin. S when a strng wind blws r excited children try their best t blw, all the seeds culd be blwn ff at nce.

B．They fly fr the similar distance.
C．They cme ff easier in the wind frm ne directin.
D．They break free frm feathers t fly nce cming ff.

Plastic waste is chking ur planet. Peple are trying t help fix it by recycling, but their effrts aren’t ging far enugh. Even when plastic prducers are held respnsible and attempt t slve the prblem, it desn’t always g smthly. Such has been the case fr the cmpany Trus Pak, which prduces nvel packaging fr frzen meals n a large scale.
Like many ther black plastic prducts, the Trus Pak packages used a carbn-based pigment(颜料). This pigment trubles the srting technlgy which is used by many recy-cling facilities, s black plastic usually ends up being thrwn away because the machines can’t identify it. Nw the cmpany is midway thrugh the cmplex prcess f phasing ut that pig-ment and switching that pigment t ne that desn’t use carbn.
But that desn’t mean the prblem is slved, fr the recycling rate at the waste facility itself is nt encuraging. Yur discarded plastic may end up in a landfill even if yu send it t be recycled. Wrldwide, nly abut nine percent f all the plastic waste has been recycled, which amunts t less than 600 millin tns ut f ver 6 billin. While ne might assume the prprtin f plastic being recycled is n the increase due t imprved tech and increased public awareness f envirnmental prtectin, it’s actually becme even lwer in many places in recent years.
“The wrld wasn’t always flded with single-use plastic prducts,” said Lisa Ramsden, senir plastic campaigner fr Greenpeace USA. “We knw hw t live withut them. We’ve just gt used t a cnvenience culture that relies s heavily n them.”
The slutin is bvius. T get ut f this habit, we shuld stp using s much plastic, starting with many f the items we use just nce fr a few minutes. Cmpanies need t shift tward using mre refillable and reusable cntainers, and packaging made frm materials that are less harmful t the envirnment. Gvernments must mandate(强制执行) such changes—a gal we’re nw finally inching clser t every day.
32．What is the prblem with the Trus Pak packages?
A．They are expensive fr custmers.
B．Their pigment is hardly appealing.
C．They are hard t define as “recyclable”.
D．Their prductin prcess is very cmplex.
33．What des the authr mainly stress in paragraph 3?
A．The reasn fr recycling plastic waste.
B．The utcme f recycling plastic waste.
C．The ptential f recycling plastic waste.
D．The bjective f recycling plastic waste.
34．What is advised t slve the plastic pllutin in the text?
A．Making sme stricter laws.
B．Reducing the use f plastic prducts.
C．Advancing the technlgy f recycling.
D．Setting sme higher envirnmental gals.
35．Which can be the best title fr the text?
A．Recycling fails t slve plastic pllutin
B．A cmpany cntributes a lt t recycling
C．Great changes happen in recycling plastic
D．Plastic pllutin is increasingly wrsening
