Kyra Peralte thought keeping a diary during the pandemic might help her sort out her complicated feeling. In April 2020, the mother of two in Montclair, New Jersey, started writing frankly about the challenges of balancing work, marriage and motherhood during a global crisis.
Peralte wanted to know how other women were doing. "I wanted an interaction that felt human," so she invited women from near and far to fill the remaining lined pages of her black-and-white marbled composition notebook with their own pandemic tales. She named the project The Traveling Diary. She came up with a system: Each person gets to keep the diary for three days and fills as many pages as she wishes. Then she is responsible for mailing it to the next person, whose address Peralte provides.
So far, more than 2,000 women from 30 countries have participated, some as far away as South Africa and Australia. More than 50 of these notebooks are currently in circulation, and about 20 completed ones are back in Peralte's possession.
It felt meaningful to pass on something so personal. It felt like these were women that they had known even though they didn't know them at all. Some did get to meet the women whose stories they read, through a virtual get-together that Peralte organized. Peralte often hosts Zoom events so the women get the chance to get to know one another more, share stories and connect more closely. Some of the women have even become close friends.
Peralte feels a strong bond with the people who filled its pages, none of whom she would have otherwise known. Her spontaneous (自发的) idea has had a profound effect on her and the other women who were part of it. "The Traveling Diary," she says, "is making sisters out of strangers."
24. Why did Peralte start The Traveling Diary
A. To help sort out her feeling. B. To finish her pages of notebook.
C. To have an interaction with other women. D. To write a book covering pandemic tales.
25. What do we know about the project
A. It has become popular across the world.
B. Each woman keeps the diary at least three days.
C. Each person fills pages based on Peralte's wishes.
D. It requires Peralte to post the diary to the next person.
26. What can be inferred about participants from the last two paragraphs
A. They are totally strangers before. B. They often hold parties themselves.
C. They have met each other in real life. D. They have been known to Peralte before.
27. Which of the following best describes Kyra Peralte
A. Generous and tolerant. B. Creative and helpful.
C. Romantic and imaginative. D. Demanding and adventurous.
C
When humans are feeling lonely, we can call or video chat with friends and family who live far away. But, scientists asked, what about pet parrots New research suggests that these chatty creatures may also benefit from virtually connecting with their peers.
The idea for this study was not random: In the wild, parrots tend to live in large flocks. But when kept in captivity (圈养), these social birds are often on their own. Feeling bored and isolated, they may develop psychological issues.
During the first two weeks of the study, owners taught their birds to ring a bell, then touch an image of another pet parrot on a tablet screen to initiate a video call. Though 18 parrots began the experiment, three dropped out. Once the birds had learned how to make video interactions, the second phase of the experiment could begin. In this "open call" period, the 15 participating birds could make calls freely; they also got to choose which bird to dial up. Over the next two months, pet parrots made 147 deliberate video calls. Their owners took detailed notes about the calls and recorded more than 1,000 hours of video footage (片段).
Some of the parrots learned new skills from their virtual companions. The birds also forged strong friendships, which researchers measured by how frequently they chose to call the same individual. Some birds were even reported to have developed attachments to the human caretakers of their virtual friends.
As for other parrot owners, the researchers caution it might not be wise to suddenly begin launching chats on behalf of their pets. "We were really careful about training the birds' caregivers thoroughly to ensure that they could offer an appropriate level of support to empower their parrots but also help them avoid any negative experiences," says study co-author Rebecca Kleinberger.
28. What does the underlined word "initiate" in paragraph 3 mean
A. Cancel. B. Answer. C. Start. D. Delay.
29. What can we learn about the study
A. 18 parrots took part in the entire experiment.
B. The participating birds enjoyed making video calls.
C. Some parrots were attached to their own caretakers.
D. The birds learnt to dial in the "opening call" period.
30. Where is the text probably taken from
A. A health report. B. A science magazine.
C. An academic article. D. An official document.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. A Guide to Pet Parrots Training. B. The Impact of Technology on Parrots.
C. Parrots: Social Creatures by Nature. D. Parrot Socialization: A Video Chat Solution.
D
Nearly a fifth of items that households place in their recycling bin could end up in landfill, according to new data, because people are wrongly "wish-cycling". Toothpaste tubes, coffee cups, juice cartons and salad bags are among the biggest items to be incorrectly thrown in the recycling bin, according to Biffa.
Non-recyclable items are removed before the recycling process. But the company warned that other contaminants such as food or liquids can mean that potential recycling is also thrown away.
The amount of non-recyclables placed in the wrong bin is rising even as people are becoming more eco-conscious. The company called on people to stop "wish-cycling" and advised always checking labels before putting items in the recycling bin.
David Heaton, a business director at Biffa, said this of the findings, "Contamination (污染) happens when items are thrown away in the wrong bins or haven't been cleaned before being recycled."
"It means recyclable resources are lost and cannot be reused. It's important that people understand what should go in the recycling bin and how to 'pre-cycle (to clean a tub or tray (托盘) if it's got food on it, for example)' so we can recycle as much material as possible." When a contaminant can't be recycled, pickers will remove the waste and send it for processing further, with landfill being a last resort (步骤).
Campaigners have argued that packaging labels and different standards make it too difficult for people to understand what they should be recycling. But most packaging will say whether it is recyclable or not. Biffa also recommends checking the resin code-the number in the plastic triangle-to know whether it can be recycled. Numbers 1, 2, 4 and 5 are "generally" recyclable, while 3, 6 and 7 are not.
32. How does the author introduce "wish-cycling" in paragraph 1
A. By giving examples. B. By providing data.
C. By making comparisons. D. By quoting a celebrity.
33. What mainly caused contamination according to David Heaton
A. The loss of recyclable resources. B. Improper procedures of the pickers.
C. Washing containers before recycling. D. Sorting the garbage in a wrong way.
34. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Numbers 1, 2 and 3 mean "generally" recyclable.
B. All packaging gives information related to recycling.
C. Governments will apply the same standard to recycling.
D. There exist some challenges to more efficient recycling.
35. What does the text seem to advocate
A. Landfill. B. Pre-cycling. C. Wish-cycling. D. Non-recycling.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
The good news is that a research shows that the less junk food you eat, the less you crave (渴望得到) it. 36 As I've slowly begun to eat healthier, I've noticed myself wanting pizza and candy and ice cream less and less. Some people refer to this transition period as "gene reprogramming."
37 That is to say, if you can find ways to gradually eat healthier, you'll start to experience the cravings of junk food less and less. I've never claimed to have all the answers, but here are some strategies that might help.
First, you can use my "outer ring" strategy to avoid processed and packaged foods at the grocery store. If you limit yourself to purchasing foods that are on the outer ring of the store, then you will generally buy whole foods (fruits, vegetables, meat, eggs. etc.) 38 But you will avoid a lot of unhealthy foods.
You can also follow the "5 ingredient rule" when buying foods at the store. If something has more than 5 ingredients in it, don't buy it. The chances are, it has been designed to fool you into eating more of it. 39
There's a reason why many people eat as a way to deal with stress. 40 These chemicals can trigger (触发) mechanisms that are similar to the cravings you get from fat and sugar. In other words, when you get stressed, your brain feels the addictive call of fat and sugar and you're pulled back to junk food.
We all have stressful situations that arise in our lives. Learning to deal with stress in a different way can help you overcome the addictive pull of junk food. This could include simple breathing techniques or a short-guided meditation (冥想).
A. My own experiences have mirrored this.
B. Not everything on the outer ring is healthy.
C. Whatever you want to call it, the lesson is the same.
D. When buying these foods, you must make the right choice.
E. Avoid those products and stick with the more natural options.
F. Stress causes certain regions of the brain to release chemicals.
G. No matter what you talk about it, it is of quite great difference.

She was expecting wonderful, lovely birds and beautiful greenery with fresh air, but instead it was the complete opposite. There was garbage right outside their front gate. There were no trees and instead of the sweet chirping (鸟叫声) of birds, there were annoying g traffic noises. Helen was angry. "What is this Why can't someone do anything about it " she thought.

I am sure as long as we work together, our community will become a better place!"
