22、ension(40 minutes)Section ADirections: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one wordfor each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passagethrough carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is id
23、entified by a letter.Please mark the corresponding letter for each itemon Answer Sheet 2with a single linethrough the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Questions 26 to 35 are based on the following passage.The dream of personalised flight is still vivid in the minds
24、 of many inventors, somedeveloping cycle-powered craft, others26money into jetpacks (喷气飞行背包). However, theflying car has always remained the27symbol of personal transport freedom.Several companies around the world have produced28that can drive on roads and fly.Airbus has a futuristic modular (组件式的)
25、concept involving a passenger capsule that can be29from the road-going chassis (底盘) and picked up by a helicopter-type machine.But all these concepts are massively expensive, require safety certification standards for roadand air, need30controls, involve complex folding wings and propellers, and hav
26、e to be flownfrom air-strips. So they are likely to remain rich peoples playthings rather than practical transportsolutions for the masses.“A car that takes off from some London street and lands in another31street is unlikely tohappen,” says Prof. Gray, a leading aeronautical engineer. “Sky taxis ar
27、e much more likely.” Butthat wont stop inventors from dreaming up new ways to fly and trying to persuade investors toback their sometimes32schemes.Civilian aviation is being disrupted, not by the age-old desires for speed, romanticism and33, but by the pressing need to respond to a changing climate.
28、 New electric engines coupledwith artificial intelligence and34systems will contribute to a more efficient, integratedtransport system that is less polluting and less noisy. That may sound simple, but as Prof. Graysays, “When I travel somewhere I like this notion that when I finish my journey I feel
29、 better thanwhen I started it. Thats completely at35with how I feel today.” Now that would be progress.A) autonomousI) pouringB) detachedJ) prototypesC) dualK) randomD) glamourL) repressingE) imminentM) segmentedF) oddsN) spectrumG) oppositesO) ultimateH) outrageous- 4 -Section BDirections: In this

31、estions by marking the corresponding letteron AnswerSheet 2.CompaniesAre Working with Consumers to Reduce WasteA As consumers, we are very wasteful. Annually, the world generates 1.3 billion tons ofsolid waste. This is expected to go up to 2.2 billion by 2025. The developed countries areresponsible
32、for 44% of waste, and in the U.S. alone, the average person throws away their bodyweight in rubbish every month.B Conventional wisdom would seem to suggest that companies have no incentive tolengthen the life cycle of their products and reduce the revenue they would get from selling newgoods. Yet, m
33、ore and more businesses are thinking about how to reduce consumer waste. This ispartly driven by the rising price of raw materials and metals. It is also partly due to bothconsumers and companies becoming more aware of the need to protect our environment.C When choosing what products to buy and whic
34、h brands to buy from, more and moreconsumers are looking into sustainability. This is opposed to just price and performance they wereconcerned about in the past. In a survey of 54 of the worlds leading brands, almost all of themreported that consumers are showing increasing care about sustainable li
35、festyles. At the same time,surveys on consumers in the U.S. and the U.K. show that they also care about minimizing energyuse and reducing waste.D For the most part, consumers control what happens to a product. But some companies arerealizing that placing the burden of recycling entirely on the consu
36、mer is not an effective strategy,especially when tossing something away seems like the easiest and most convenient option.E Some retailers and manufacturers in the clothing, footwear, and electronics industrieshave launched environmental programs. They want to make their customers interested inprese
37、rving their products and preventing things that still have value from going to the garbagedump. By offering services to help expand the longevity of their products, theyre promisingqualityanddurabilitytoconsumers,andreceivingthereputationalgainsforbeingenvironmentally friendly.F For example, the Swe
38、dish jeans company Nudie Jeans offers free repair at twenty of theirshops. Instead of discarding their old worn-out jeans, customers bring them in to be renewed. Thecompany even provides mail-order repair kits and online videos, so that customers can learn howto fix a pair of jeans at home. Their ph
39、ilosophy is that extending the life of a pair of jeans is notonly great for the environment, but allows the consumer to get more value out of their product.When customers do want to toss their pair, they can give them back to the store, which willrepurpose and resell them. Another clothing company,
40、Patagonia, a high-end outdoor clothingstore, follows the same principle. It has partnered with DIY website iFixit to teach consumers howto repair their clothing, such as waterproof outerwear, at home. The company also offers a repairprogram for their customers for a modest fee. Currently, Patagonia
41、repairs about 40,000 garmentsa year in their Reno, Nevada, service center. According to the companys CEO, Rose Marcario,this is about building a company that cares about the environment. At the same time, offering- 5 -repair supports the perceived quality of its products.G In Brazil, the multination
42、al corporation Adidas has been running a shoe-recyclingprogram called “Sustainable Footprint” since 2012. Customers can bring shoes of any brand into an Adidas store to be shredded and turned into alternative fuels for energy creation instead of being burned as trash. They are used to fuel cement ov
43、ens. To motivate visitors to bring in more old shoes, Adidas Brazil promotes the program in stores by showing videos to educate customers, and it even offers a discount each time a customer brings in an old pair of shoes. This boosts the reputation and image of Adidas by making people more aware of
44、the companys values.H Enormous opportunities also lie with e-waste. It is estimated that in 2014 the worldproduced some 42 million metric tons of e-waste (discarded electrical and electronic equipment and its parts) with North America and Europe accounting for 8 and 12 million metric tons respective
45、ly. The materials from e-waste include iron, copper, gold, silver, and aluminum materials that could be reused, resold, salvaged, or recycled. Together, the value of these metals is estimated to be about $52 billion. Electronics giants like Best Buy and Samsung have providede-waste take-back program
46、s over the past few years, which aim to refurbish (翻新) old electroniccomponents and parts into new products.I For other companies interested in reducing waste, helping the environment, and providingthe sustainable lifestyles that consumers seek, here are some first steps for building a relationshipw
47、ith customers that focuses on recycling and restoring value to products:J Find partners. If you are a manufacturer who relies on outside distributors, then retailersare the ideal partner for collecting old products. Power tool maker DeWalt partners withcompanies, such as Lowes and Napa Auto Parts, t
48、o collect old tools at their stores for recycling.The partnership benefits both sides by allowing unconventional partners (for example, twocompanies from two different industries) to work together on a specific aspect of the value chain,like, in this example, an engine firm with an accessory one.K C
49、reate incentives. Environmental conscientiousness isnt always enough to makecustomers recycle old goods. For instance, DeWalt discovered that many contractors were holdingon to their old tools, even if they no longer worked, because they were expensive purchases and itwas hard to justify bringing th
50、em in to recycle. By offering instant discounts worth as much as$100, DeWalt launched a trade-in program to encourage people to bring back tools. As a result,DeWalt now reuses those materials to create new products.L Start with a trial program, and expect to change the details as you go. Any take-ba
