Starbucks is always saying it is a cmpany that cares much abut the envirnment. In recent years, awareness abut the effect that plastic is having n the envirnment—in particular, the cean—has caused scientists t sund the alarm (警报) abut a need t curb the use f plastics.
"What we realize is that these billins f little things in the cean, such as ne man's tthbrush, ne lady's cmb. all can cause the prblem," Emily Penn said. She is the c-funder f an expeditin (探险队). "But what makes us happy is that we can slve it well thrugh ur daily actins. We need billins f small actins—just little daily things t reduce the pllutin."
Custmers wh still want t enjy a Starbucks drink with a straw will be able t request ne, but it wn't be plastic. Instead, they will be given a straw made frm paper r ther ec-friendly materials.

If yur parents were t surprise yu with a present n yur birthday, which ne wuld yu prefer, a trip t the amusement park r a new pair f shes?
Accrding t Science Daily, abut ne-third f the peple are likely t prefer shes t a fun trip. These peple are called "materialists", namely, thse wh value material (物质) gds mre than experiences. But which f the tw chices makes peple happier?
Back in 2009, Ryan Hwell, a prfessr at San Francisc State University, fund that in the lng run, experiences make peple happier than pssessins. This is because the jy f receiving a new bject fades (消退) ver time as yu get used t seeing it every day. Experiences, n the ther hand, can cntinue t bring yu jy in the future thrugh happy memries.
But materialists shuld at least be happy when they first buy smething, shuldn't they?
T figure it ut, Hwell did anther study. He classified (分组) a grup f adults accrding t their persnality types, ranging frm less materialistic t mre materialistic. Each persn was asked different questins t see hw they felt abut spending mney n material gds versus spending mney n experiences.
As expected, the mre materialistic participants gt less happiness frm purchases (购买) than the less materialistic, because such purchases didn't fit with their persnalities and values. But t Hwell's surprise, he fund that materialists weren't any happier even if they spent mney n material items.
This is because materialists wrry that thers may criticize r lk dwn n their chices. "There are certain value systems that are rejected by sciety," said Hwell. "When we find ut smene is materialistic, we think less f them, and that drives their happiness dwn."
Anther reasn is that materialistic peple always fcus n what they dn't have instead f what they have nw. This makes them feel less satisfied and grateful.
If yu happen t be a materialistic persn, there's smething yu can try. "If materialists make mre accurate purchases, rather than trying t impress thers, they will be happier," Hwell said.
Yu shuld als remember what an ancient Greek philspher (哲学家) nce said, "D nt spil (破坏) what yu have by desiring (渴望) what yu dn't have; remember what yu nw have was nce amng the things yu nly hped fr."
36. What did Ryan Hwell find in his studies?
A . Material gds bring peple less happiness than experiences. B . Abut ne-third f the peple prefer material gds t experiences. C . Materialists have mre fun spending mney n gds than n experiences. D . Receiving a new bject brings lasting jy while the jy f an experience fades sn.
37. What did Ryan Hwell want t find ut by ding anther study?
A . Hw t judge whether a persn is a materialist. B . Why materialists are nt happy with their purchases. C . Hw materialists feel when they spend mney n gds. D . Whether materialists are happy when they first buy smething.
38. What des "This" in the 7th paragraph refer t ?
A . Materialists weren't mre satisfied even thugh they bught what they wanted. B . Materialists were happy as sn as they spent mney n what they want. C . Materialists weren't wrried as lng as they spent mney n experiences. D . Materialists were sad if they spent less mney n material items.
39. Why des the authr use the ancient Greek philspher's wrds in the last paragraph?
A . T advise materialistic peple nt t try t impress thers. B . T persuade peple t be satisfied with what they already wn. C . T prve it's unwise t be materialistic and have any desire. D . T tell readers what they desire nw might ne day becme theirs.
