I dislike making school lunches.Each morning,I am in a hurry busy slicing cucumbers, washing berries,and filling water bottles,all the while feeling annoyed and even slightly angry. The lunches aren't particularly challenging to prepare.My daughters are content with the food in their lunch box.1. There's no good reason for my annoyance.
And then one morning a thought suddenly came into my mind-I am so lucky.
Within seconds,those four words bloomed throughout my awareness.2.I am so lucky to live in a home with electricity,running water,and a functional refrigerator.I am so lucky to live near a grocery store with a plentiful selection of fresh food and snacks and so lucky to have enough money to afford them.I am so lucky to have two daughters who are healthy enough to eat and digest the food I send with them.
I can't tell you where this sudden burst of gratitude came from,but I do know this:that small shift immediately made my morning lunch routine extremely easier.Rather than feeling impatient and annoyed,I felt calm and pleased.Rather than mentally complaining through the whole morning,I was able to appreciate my situation.3.
I am so grateful for peanut butter.Thank goodness for this magical source of protein that my daughters will actually eat.And jelly,sweet,sweet,jelly.I can't forget sliced bread-oh,the magic of sliced bread!Imagine if I had to cut those slices myself each morning? 4.
Don't get me wrong-I still don't enjoy making lunches. 5. It gives me just enough space from my bad temper to choose a different response to whatever is going on.
A.Even so,I can't stand it.
B.What a mess that would be!
C.My husband also likes my breakfast.
D.All I could think about was how fortunate I am.
E.I found the cure for my bad feelings that morning.
F.I am so lucky to have a job and to have so many good workmates.
G.But the process doesn't feel like such a struggle when I remember to be grateful.
Why is poverty so difficult to overcome?Why are poorer people less likely to spend money on their own learning and ability development,but more likely to be addicted to television and video games?
In the past,a poor person was normally considered to have bad virtue or have no ambition. The Nobel Prize winner Banerjee corrects such views and explains the truth behind the poor. Poor people tend to live with more worries in their lives,he said,so they need tools such as televisions,cell phones,junk food and video games to get rid of worries more than others.But learning something often takes a lot of time and money to get rewards,while the poor are often impatient due to economic(经济的）reasons,and their life in the meantime is getting more boring.
Banerjee's research has found that the poor often need to borrow short-term loans(贷款）.Thus,the poor tend to take higher financial risks-they often have unstable incomes and are unable to get money to start a business from banks,so they rely more on these high-interest loans.And these small loans put a brake on their savings against risks.
How could the poor step into the middle class?Maybe starting a business is a way out.But for the extremely poor,it's impossible to get help from banks to start a business.In most cases,a more practical option is getting a job in government agencies because comparatively speaking, government jobs are very stable,which give the poor the opportunities lo be hired for the long term,to increase the“bandwidth(带宽）”of their thinking,and thus making it possible for families to move from poverty to the middle class.
What's the role of government then?When the market can't solve a problem,the government will solve it.And the problem behind the poor is actually the failure of the market. The poor often lack the necessary information to make the right choices and they often carry too much responsibility for their survival to make the best choices.In this sense,Banerjee's research provides a new perspective for governments to understand poverty,so that policies can be tailored to reduce poverty and eventually remove it.
1.What do the poor need to improve their ability according to Banerjee?
A.Ambition.
B.Money.
C.Guidance.
D.Patience.
2.What will probably cause the poor to face financial risks?
A.The high-interest loans.
B.Their small incomes.
C.The financial policies.
D.Their educational backgrounds.
3.What may be a right choice for the poor to get out of poverty?
A.Setting a high goal..
B.Working as civil servants.
C.Opening their mind.
D.Seeking support from banks.
4.What can the government do to get rid of poverty?
A.Adjust the policy.
B.Control the market.
C.Do more research.
D.Offer enough information.
For decades,Americans have been sorting their trash believing that most plastic could be recycled.But the truth is that the vast majority of all plastic produced can't be or won't be recycled.In 40 years,less than 10% of plastic has been recycled.
A news programme Frontline,by NPR and the PBS,found that oil and gas companies- the makers of plastic-have known that all along,even as they spent millions of dollars telling the American public the opposite.The plastics industry officials said the industry is providing money for new technology that they believe will get recycling plastic up to scale.The goal,they said,is to recycle 100% of the plastic they make in 5 years.
But the more plastic is recycled,the less money the industry will make by selling new plastic.And those profits have become increasingly important.Companies have told shareholders（股东）that profits from using oil and gas for transport are expected to decline in coming years with the increasing use of electric cars.The industry leaders expect oil and gas demands from the chemical industry will be much greater than the demand from the transport side in the coming decade.Plastic production overall is now expected to rise three times by 2050,and once again,the industry is spending money on advertisements and public relations to promote plastic recycling.
Plastic is now more common than it's ever been and harder to recycle.Gas prices remain at historic lows,making new plastic cheaper than recycled plastic.And the industry now produces many more different-and more complex-kinds of plastics that are more costly to sort and in many cases can't be recycled at all.Efforts to reduce plastic use are mounting nationwide,but any plan to slow the growth of plastic will face an industry with billions of dollars of future profits to lose.
1.What do we know about the goal of 100%plastic recycling?
A.It's modest.
B.It's achievable.
C.It's urgent.
D.It's unreal.
2.How will the oil and gas companies make more profits in the following years?
A.By selling electric cars.
B.By adding emphasis on recycling.
C.By increasing plastic production.
D.By meeting the needs of transport.
3.What does the underlined word"mounting"in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.Increasing.
B.Working.
C.Failing.
D.Decreasing.
4.What may be the best title for the text?
A.Should Plastic Be Recycled?
B.Can Plastic Waste Be Handled?
C.Recycle Plastic or Sell More?
D.Plastic Products or Substitutes?
