Wasted food produces gas that will cause global warming, and brings other problems like energy emergency. To reduce food waste, people in the food packaging industry are working to develop products for longer shelf life.Jonathan Deutsch, a professor of food science, says, “All food packaging is designed to explain the contents, protect the quality, and make sure the safety of the product.” When packaging keeps food safe and fresh for a longer time, less waste happens.Making food last longer is not easy because different foods need different packaging. Fats, for example, change when meeting air and light. That’s why fatty foods, like potato chips, are always kept in packages which light can’t get through. And cookies are afraid of getting wet. Keeping those snacks in a fully closed package will help them stay fresh and tasty longer.Packaging can extend shelf life by keeping out gases in the air, like oxygen. Oxygen causes problems for many different foods. So many food packages are designed to solve the air problem. Vacuum-sealed(真空封闭的) packaging takes off any oxygen between the food and packaging, which can increase shelf life from a few days to a few weeks. Modified atmosphere packaging(气调包装) is another solution. Unlike vacuum-sealed packaging which takes off as much air as possible, this packaging replaces the air with a right mixture of gases. Red meat needs some oxygen to keep its colour, but too much oxygen can make it go bad. This kind of packaging can extend shelf life while keeping the product’s colour.While packaging can help reduce food waste, people also need to consider the environmental influence of the packaging itself. Scientists are working to develop more proper materials. And more people get to know the importance of reducing food waste. “Unlike many of the challenges we face right now on our planet,” said Shukla from Food & Wine magazine, “Food waste is something that every single person can do something about.”26.In Paragraph 3, the writer mentioned potato chips and cookies to ________.A.explain food must be kept without light B.explain packaging depends on the food typeC.show wasted food is bad for the environment. D.show food goes bad quickly when getting wet27.What can we learn from the passage A.Packages are designed to keep oxygen inside.B.Vacuum-sealed packaging is used to package red meat.C.The materials of packages are friendly to the environment.D.Modified atmosphere packaging mixes air properly in packages.28.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage A.How to Package Food B.Creative Packaging DesignsC.Food Waste: Causes and Solutions D.Packaging: A Way to Fight Food WasteSweden is Northern Europe’s largest country. Known for its natural beauty, Sweden is also home to Stockholm, the capital city made up of 14 islands. Here are several interesting facts about this Land of the Midnight Sun.People in Sweden can enjoy only a few hours of light in winter. Or if people live above the Arctic Circle, none at all. To keep safe in the dark, Swedes have different ways of seeing and being seen. Many places are lighted with high-powered spotlights, and kids wear reflectors sewn onto their clothes. Drivers keep their eyes open because they know children will be outside in the dark.Being close to the Arctic Circle also means months of ice. Ice is especially good for sparking, which is both a form of transportation and a fun choice for walking. “Spark” means “kick” in Swedish, which is what a person does-kicks the spark along the ice while holding onto the back of the little seat and standing on one blade.When it comes to waste management, Sweden is ahead of its time. Swedes recycle nearly 50% of what they throw away. What about the other half This is what makes Sweden different from the rest of the world: the waste goes to a power station where it is burned and changed into energy. In 2016, Sweden even began bringing waste from other countries. In this way, Sweden gets 100 million dollars every year.Want to know more Head over to http:/www.go-to-sweden.com.29.How many aspects does the writer tell us about Sweden A.One. B.Three. C.Five.

We had just finished our meal, when there was a loud knocking at the door. Dupin opened it. There stood Mr. Germain, the chief of the Paris Police.We welcomed him warmly, for he was an old acquaintance (熟人) whom we hadn’t seen for a great time.“I need your assistance,” said Germain. “I met a case(案件) that has been giving me a great deal of trouble. It is very simple but very strange.” “Also, please keep this secret. If anyone found out that I told you this. I would certainly lose my job.”“Well, then,” said the Chief, “I have learned that a very important letter has been stolen from the king. We are sure who stole it and that the letter is in his house.”“But who would dare do such a thing” I cried.“The thief,” said Germain softly, “He’s a man who dares do many dangerous things. He is one of the most powerful and important ministers in the government. He is Minister Danton.” “Have you searched his house ”“A lot of times. While Minister Danton was out, a lot of well-trained police officers carefully searched the entire house, room by room. In fact, we examined everything in the house but found nothing.”…A month later, Dupin asked Germain and me to his house. There he took out a letter and handed it to the Chief. We were both very surprised.Dupin explained, “I know Minister Danton very well. He could not hide the letter in any of the usual hiding places. I realized that he might have left the letter out in the open, right under everyone’s nose, where no one would search for it.”“Then I visited him with my dark glasses on to help me observe(观察) better. While we were chatting, a dirty, torn letter in the letter holder suddenly caught my eyes—unusual for the Minister, who is careful and neat.”“I was sure it was the letter.” “Then I purposely left my gloves behind so I could come back again.”“The next morning, I hired a man to fire a gun on the street, while the Minister went to see what happened, I stole the letter by replacing it with a similar one.” On it Dupin wrote these words:Your plan was good, but mine was better.As you can see, I took the letter.—Based on a story by Edgar Allan Poe33.The underlined word “assistance” in the third paragraph probably means ________.A.hobby B.help C.habit D.holiday34.Who is the best at solving difficult cases according to the passage A.The writer.
