21、 Day 6.Eradajere Oleita thinks she may have a partial solution fbr two of our countrys long-standing problems: garbage and poverty. If s called The Chip Bag Project. The 26-year-old student and environmentalist from Detroit is asking a favor of local snack lovers: Rather than throw your empty chip b
22、ags into the trash, donate them so she can turn them into sleeping bags for the homeless.Chip eaters drop off their empty bags from Lays （乐事公司）at two locations in Detroit: a print shop and a clothing store, where Oleita and her volunteer helpers collect them. After they clean the chip bags in hot so
23、apy water, they slice them open, lay them flat, and iron them together. It takes about four hours to sew a sleeping bag, and each takes around 150 to 300 chip bags, depending on whether its single-serve or family-size. The result is a sleeping bag that is waterproof, lightweight, and easy to carry a
24、round. Oleita told The Detroit News.Since its start in 2020, the Chip Bag Project has collected more than 800,000 chip bags and, as of last December, it has created 110 sleeping bags. Sure, it would be simpler to raise money to buy new sleeping bags. But thafs only half the goal for Oleita-whose fam
25、ily moved to the United States from Nigeria a decade ago with the hope of attaining a better lifeand her fellow volunteers. “We are committed to making an impact not only socially, but also environmentally. she said.And, of course, theres the symbolism of salvaging bags that would otherwise be aband
26、oned in the trash and using them to help the homeless. Its a powerful reminder that environmental injustice and poverty often go hand in hand. As Oleita told, I think its time to show connections between these issues.”4. What is the purpose of the Chip Bag Project?A. To make donations fbr the homele
27、ss.B. To deal with garbage and sleeping bags.C. To stop pollution caused by snack lovers.D. To protect the environment and reduce poverty.5. . How does Oleita get materials for sleeping bags?A.

29、t describes Eradajere Oleita?A. Determined and honest.B. Ambitious and humorous.C. Devoted and creative.D. Caring and dependent.One third of adults over 65 in America have never used the Internet, and half dont even have Internet access at home. In San Francisco, the center of technology”, 40% of ol
30、der adults do not have basic digital literacy skills.This situation is becoming appalling as over 10,000 Americans turn 65 every single day. By 2050, 22% of Americans will be 65 or older. Meanwhile, technology is developing very fast. This means that a large number of people will be unable to profic
31、iently use emergent technology.Many people believe that seniors arent required to participate in our technological future because theyll be retired and relaxed soon. But this is the farthest thing from the truth. Baby boomers are currently experiencing a different boom: With more people getting olde
32、r than ever before, their life expectancies （寿命）are also increasing dramatically. With medical advancements, the number of American people projected to live into their 90s has doubled since 1965.However, they dont have strong financial or educational support. It is not a problem, itsa crisis. More t
33、han half of employees over 50 have been laid off in whats being called forced retirement. And few organizations are actively helping older employees make the transition from full-time jobs to part-time ones. For those fortunate enough to be employed, 3 out of 5 older workers experience prejudice.The
34、 easiest solution is to teach digital literacy. If they want to survive the forthcoming retirement crisis, they should get enough digital knowledge and skills to operate todays tools and tomorrows platforms. With every crisis comes an opportunity. Tutoring, customer service, editing, research, book-
35、keeping, and other virtual assistance-based work open the doors. But again, digital knowledge is first required to live in our high-tech society and growing economy. So try to get more online and navigate the growing number of sites andapps.8. What does the underlined word appalling probably mean in
36、 paragraph 2?C. Controllable. D. Inspiring.B. A possible decline in aging.D. Tending to double their life span.B. The way out for baby boomers.D. The importance of developingA. Confusing. B. Terrible.9. What problem may baby boomers face?A. A possible crisis after they retire.C. Failing to receive g
37、ood healthcare.10. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. The features of high-tech jobs.C. Potential industries in the future.technology.11. What does the author advise baby boomers to do?A. Have a good sense of crisis.B. Avoid retiring at an early age.C. Look for many part-time jobs.D. Improve
38、 digital literacy actively.As online learning becomes more common and more and more resources become digital form, some people have suggested that public libraries should be shut down and, in their place, everyone should be given an iPad.Supporters of this idea state that it will save local cities a
39、nd towns money because libraries are expensive to maintain. They also believe it will encourage more people to read because they wont have to travel to a library to get a book; they can simply click on what they want to read and read it from wherever they are. They could also access more materials b
40、ecause libraries wont have to buy physical copies of books.However, it would be a serious mistake to replace libraries with iPads. First, digital books and resources are associated with less learning and more problems than print resources. A study done on tablet and book reading found that people re
41、ad 20-30% slower on iPads, remember 20% less information, and understand 10% less of what they read compared to people who read the same information in print. Additionally, staring too long at a screen has been shown to cause some health problems, including dizziness, dry eyes, headaches, shoulder a
42、nd back pain and so on. We should not add to these problems by giving people, especially young people, more reasons to look at screens.Second, it is incredibly narrow-minded to assume that the only service libraries offer is book lending. Libraries have more benefits, and many are only available if
43、the library has a physical location. Some of these benefits include acting as a quiet study space, giving people a way to communicate with their neighbors, holding classes on a variety of topics, providing jobs and keeping the community connected. One neighborhood found that, after a local library i
44、nstituted community events such as play times fbr kids and parents, job fairs fbr teenagers, and meeting spaces fbr senior citizens, over a third of residents reported feeling more connected to their community. Similarly, a survey conducted in 2015 found that nearly two-thirds of American adults fee
45、l that closing their local library would have a major impact on their community. People see libraries as a way to connect with others and get their questions answered and benefits iPads cant offer nearly as well or as easily.While replacing libraries with iPads may seem like a simple solution, it wo
46、uld encourage people to spend even more time looking at digital screens, despite the issues surrounding them. It would also end access to many of the benefits of libraries that people have come to rely on. In many areas, libraries are such an important part of the community network that they could n
47、ever be replaced by a simple object.12. Digital reading supporters may agree that.A. the price is too high to maintain librariesB. iPads make peoples learning less convenientC. printed books are more efficient than digital onesD. iPads encourage people to spend more time on line 13. The author suppo
48、rts his idea in Paragraph 3 by. A. listing figures and showing studying resultsB. highlighting the differences between the two mediaC , comparing reading efficiency through different mediaD. showing advantages and disadvantages of reading with iPads14. What is the authors attitude towards the functions of public libraries?A. Unconcerned. B. Confused.C. Positive.D. Negative.15. What is the best title of the passage?A. Why IPads Encourage People to Read? B. Should Public Libraries Be Shut Down?C. Will IPads Take the Place
