In one case, customers were given “smart” reusable cups made mostly from recyclable plastic. They then could drop their empties into collection containers at key locations, for washing and reuse. These cups were printed with RFID chips or QR codes, through which coffee shops can know where there is the greatest need for collection containers and how many are not using them.To reduce coffee cup waste, Cup Club is already replacing millions of takeaway cups in the UK. while Recup in Germany, has performed a deposit system that simply adds a small extra fee to any coffee cup which is returned to the buyer after the cup is deposited in any registered collection point.28. What can we say about the paperbased cups?A. They can absorb water easily. B. They are not popular in life.C. They can’t be easily recycled. D. They are attractive in low price.29. What’s the theme of the NextGen Cup?A. Separating recyclable materials from the cups.B. Making the cups green and easily available.C. Reducing the unnecessary parts of the cups.D. Gaining the support from their partners.30. What’s the function of RFID chips or QR codes?A. Knowing about customers’ preference for coffee shops.B. Collecting the information on which shop is empty.C. Helping choose where customer can drink coffee.D. Making the recycling of cups more efficient.31. What does the word “which” in the last paragraph refer to?A. A collection point. B. A deposit system.C. A small extra fee. D. Any coffee cup.DBlue sharks use large, spinning ocean currents, known as eddies(漩渦), to fast—track their way down to feed in the ocean twilight zone—a layer of the ocean between 200 and 1000 meters deep—containing a large number of fishes according to new research by the Applied Physics Lab.Researchers tagged(給……加上標(biāo)簽) more than a dozen blue sharks off the US. Northeast Coast and monitored them for nine months. The tags relayed data back to the researchers via satellite, showing that the sharks had spent a good part of their days diving down to the ocean twilight zone through the eddies in the ocean. There, they’d spend an hour or so hunting for food like small fish before returning to the surface to warm up before diving again.Dives were less frequent at night, when many twilight zone animals make their daily migration from the ocean’s mid—water to feed at the surface. Camrin Braun, lead author of the study, said that an evening trip possibly isn’t worth the effort for hungry blue sharks since the zone isn’t particularly well filled with fish after dark.Braun said the behavior of the blue sharks was generally similar to that of the white sharks the team tracked in a previous study last year. However, the two species had different preferences when it came to water temperature. White sharks, which are warmblooded animals, used a bination of warm and cold—water eddies to reach the twilight zone, while blue sharks relied only on warm water eddies. because they belong to a coldblooded species.Blue sharks are considered a “near threatened” species due to heavy fishing pressure on populations across the globe. “This research helps fill important knowledge gaps about where they go and why, which can inform decision making to help protect them,” said biologist Simon Thorrold. “It is significant to do further research on the blue sharks.”32. What can we know about the ocean twilight zone?A. It’s a place with spinning ocean currents.B. It provides blue sharks with small fishes.C. It’s part of a surface layer of the ocean.D. It lies off the . Northeast Coast.33. Why do blue sharks less frequently dive to the zone at night?A. The tags are attached to them.B. They can’t warm up on the surface.C. They need to avoid white sharks there.D. Small fishes are not enough for them to have.34. What can we infer from the passage?A. Blue sharks and white sharks feed in different depths of the ocean.B. Blue sharks and white sharks reach the zone with the same eddies.C. Blue sharks can not regulate their body temperature to stay warm.D. Blue sharks suffered from much less overfishing than white sharks.35. What was Simon Thorrol’s attitude to the research of Camrin Braun’s team?A. Favorable. B. Doubtful. C. Opposite. D. Indifferent.第二節(jié)（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中
