As night falls n the streets f Shanghai, Mikik Chen can ften be fund pacing up and dwn thrugh the winding narrw streets f the city hunting fr discarded items.
“I pick up all srts f things, chairs, wine bxes, bwls and cups. . . it’s like treasure hunting fr me, ”she says. The 27-year-ld digital marketer is amng the first adpters f “stping” in China, a practice that refers t picking up discarded furniture and ther gds n the streets fr re-use. She says the cncept “stping” was inspired by New Yrkers wh ften leave unwanted things n the “stps” —r drsteps—leading up t the entrances f buildings.
“The cre cncept f stping fr me is t make the best use f things,” Ms. Chen says. “It can help yu t save mney, but it’s nt just abut lwering cnsumptin.” “It’s wasteful t thrw away smething that’s still usable; it’s better t share it with thers wh need it.”
Ms. Chen says she was amng the first t use the hashtag (话题标签) stping n Xiahngshu. “I initially started with psting items that peple n lnger used and wanted t thrw away r exchange . . . gradually I’m receiving hundreds f messages each day,” she says. Since then, the trend has becme increasingly ppular.
Ms. Chen says she is “very surprised” the cncept has becme a hit n scial media, as lder generatins ften stigmatize picking up things frm the street r using secnd-hand gds. “Peple like my mum cnsider stping as ‘rubbish picking’ and ‘scavenging’ (拾荒),” she says. “She thinks that peple will lk dwn n yu fr ding this.”
Fr Nan Zheng, an envirnmentalist and advcate, stping is mre than the physical act f picking up things frm the streets. He created an app called “Grecycle” where peple can give away r take unwanted items fr free. “I think we can let mre peple knw abut the cncept f stping as an interesting and fun thing t d,” Mr. Nan says. “But then, gradually we can let peple knw this can als be abut charity and helping thers.”

Within the beautiful landscape f Wiscnsin's Lake Chippewa lies a natural wnder that pses a unique challenge fr the lcal cmmunity. This hidden wnder is nne ther than a giant flating island. The island, cmpsed f plants and trees, ccasinally flats arund the lake, causing a significant incnvenience by blcking a vital bridge. Later, the lcal peple prpsed a slutin t this prblem. Every year, lcal bat wners wrk tgether and push the island away frm the bridge.
Lake Chippewa was brn in 1923 when a vast bg（沼泽）was transfrmed thrugh flding. Sn after that, many f the peat bgs started rising t the surface and became perfect grwing spts fr plants, with seeds carried by wind and wild birds t this flating place. Over the years, these bgs have grwn plants and trees and turned int full islands. As time ges by, plants take rt, and the ldest islands even have trees that act as sails when the wind blws, mving the entire flating mass arund the lake.
Althugh the decades-ld flating island des nt relcate cnstantly, when it des, it causes truble fr the cmmunity by blcking the vital bridge that serves as the sle passage between the lake's East and West sides. The nly slutin is t gather a fleet f bats, and nt just ne r tw, but dzens f bats wrking tgether t push the island away. "It takes a cmmunity's effrt, and yu must have the winds at yur back t push them in," said a resident. Mving the island als requires precisin（精确） , as merely relcating（重新迁移）it a shrt distance may result in its return within days.
Sme peple have suggested blwing up the flating islands t get rid f the prblem. Hwever, the big bg in Lake Chippewa has been arund fr decades, and in that time a wealth f animal and plant species have made it their hme. Therefre, lcal authrities prefer they be dealt with in a way that wn't negatively impact wildlife, highlighting the delicate balance between human cnvenience and envirnmental cnservatin.The annual traditin f relcating Lake Chippewa's flating island is evidence t the cexistence f humanity and nature, a heartwarming display f cmmunity unity, and a reminder f the imprtance f preserving the unique habitats that enrich ur wrld.
28. What des the underlined wrd "slutin" in paragraph 1 refer t?
A.Building a new bridge. B.Transfrming the vast bg.
C.Mving the flating island away. D.Recnstructing the lcal cmmunity.
29. What is paragraph 2 mainly abut?
A.The frmatin f the flating island. B.The histry f flding in Lake Chippewa.
C.The abundance f species in Lake Chippewa. D.The impact f the wind n the flating island.
30. What d we knw abut the relcatin wrk frm paragraph 3?
A.It is usually finished within days.
B.It is demanding in cperatin and precisin.
C.It can nly be carried ut during windless days.
D.It greatly disturbs the cmmunity residents' lives.
31. Why have the lcal authrities refused t blw up the island?
A.T save csts fr lcal peple. B.T ensure the safety f residents.
C.T increase the bnd between cmmunities. D.T prtect the wildlife species n the island.

“Many peple cnsider cats t be a largely nnscial species,” Daniel Mills, a veterinary behavirist at the University f Lincln, tells Science. “There is clearly a lt ging n that we are nt aware f.”
T cllect data n these furry subjects, researcher Lauren Sctt f the University f Kansas Medical Center frequented a cat café lcated in Ls Angeles fr abut a year and recrded vides f interactins between 53 cats. In ttal, Sctt gathered 194 minutes f feline (猫科的) films that cntained 186 interactins. With the help f her c-authr, evlutinary psychlgist Brittany N. Flrkiewicz, she analyzed the cats’ facial signals. The pair discvered 276 expressins made up f a cmbinatin f 26 facial mvements, including shifts in ear psitin, blinks, nse licks and whisker (胡须) and muth mvements. Of all expressins, abut 45 percent r 126 were categrized as friendly, 37 percent were aggressive and 18 percent were ambiguus.
“These findings shw it is gd t lk at a cat’s ears, eyes and whiskers t understand if they are feeling friendly,” Flrkiewicz tells. “Their muth prvides a lt f infrmatin abut whether a cat fight is likely. Peple may think that cats’ facial expressins are all abut warning ther cats and peple ff, but this shws just hw scial and tlerant pet cats can actually be.” The team als identified a “cmmn play face” amng cats, which was characterized by a drpped jaw and drawn back crners f the muth.
Still, the scientists detected sme patterns: Cats tended t mve their ears and whiskers tward ne anther during friendly interactins and away during unfriendly nes. When the animals are aggressive, they ften shrink their pupils (瞳孔) and flatten their ears. Cats display negative emtins with flattened ears and curled-back whiskers.
The new study culd be used t help humans adpting cats find ne that’s mre likely t get alng with existing pets, r it culd help pet wners understand their feline cmpanins better, Flrkiewicz tells Science.
32. What did Lauren Sctt d t cllect data abut cats’ facial expressins?
A. She sht vides f cats’ interactin at a cat café.
B. She bserved cats in their natural habitat.
C. She cnducted experiments in a labratry setting.
D. She interviewed cat wners abut their pets’ behaviur.

A. mve its ears and whiskers frward
B. narrw its pupils and flatten its ears
C. clse its ears and twist its whiskers
D. lwer its jaw and draw back the crners f the muth
34. What can we learn frm the passage?
A. Cats’ nnscial nature is well cnfirmed.
B. Cats’ facial expressins are usually ffensive.
C. Cats’ expressin study will assist pet adpters.
D. Cats’ expressins wn’t signal their negative emtins.
