19、impossible,” says Victor Alvarez, a chemical engineer who sells an eco-friendly alternative to glitter.In the early 2,000s, Alvarez worked for Mercedes-Benz in Germany, where he became fond of any technology that protected the environment. A few years after leaving Mercedes-Benz, he founded Blue Sun
20、 International in Miami, which makes specialty ingredients for the skin and hair care industries.Glitter is a popular ingredient in cosmetics, such as eye shadows and lipsticks. So Alvarez began researching an alternative that didnt contain plastic to make his products safer for the environment. Tha
21、ts when he came across Ronald Britton Ltd., a company which had developed a plastic-free, biodegradable product called Bioglitter. It is made from regenerative cellulose(纤维素) sourced from hardwoods, primarily eucalyptus(桉树). Alvarez worked with the company to become the first retailer to sell Biogli

In 2018, he formed Today Glitter in order to sell the biodegradable glitter directly to consumers through its website.Today Glitter sells two kinds of biodegradable glitter Bioglitter Sparkle and Bioglitter Pure.

A small glass container that contains just 6 grams of Bioglitter costs $10, while the same amount of regular glitter could cost at least half that amount. Alvarez expects the price will come down over time. He also expects the companys sales to cross $

Though the causes of laughter can vary widely across individuals and groups, the sound of a laugh is usually reco
29、gnizable between people belonging to different cultures. In humans, laughter can express a range of emotions from positive feelings like enjoyment to negative ones such as disgust. But what about animals other than humans? Do they “laugh”, and are the causes of their laughter similar to those of hum
30、an laughter?Many animals produce sounds during play that are unique to that pleasant social interaction. Researchers consider such sounds to be an analogue of human laughter. Recently, scientists investigated play sound to see how common it was among animals. The team identified 65 species that “lau
31、ghed” while playing; most were mammals (哺乳动物), but a few bird species demonstrated playful laughter too. This new analysis could help scientists to trace the evolutionary origins of human laughter, according to a new study. When Sasha Winkler, a doctoral candidate of biological anthropology at the U
32、niversity of California. Los Angeles (UCLA), previously worked with rhesus macaques (恒河猴), she had noticed that the monkeys panted (喘气) quietly while playing. Many other primates (灵长类动物) are also known to sound during play. However, reports of playful laughter were notably absent in studies describi
33、ng fish, amphibians and reptiles, perhaps because there is some question as to whether or not play exists at all in those animal groups.Laughter in humans is thought to have originated during play, a hypothesis supported by the play-related panting laughter of many primate species. “Human laughter m
34、ay have evolved from a similar panting sound that over evolutionary time became the sounded ha ha ha that we use today. People still laugh during play, but we also involve laughter in language and non-play behaviors,” Winkler said.“Its really fascinating that so many animals have a similar function
35、of sound during play,” Winkle told the Live Science, a science news website. “But we do have these unique parts of human laughter that are also an important area for future study.”28. What do we know about human laughter?A. It is not shared among strangers.B. It is created out of the same reason.C.

Something similar.C. Something symbolic.D. Something attractive.30. Why is there a lack of reports in laughter o
37、f some animal groups?A. Because they are not well evolved and emotionlessB. Because play is not a definite behavior among them.C. Because they are not as interesting as other animals.D. Because only mammals and primates are able to laugh.31. What is probably the focus of future study on laughter?A.
38、Distinctive features of human laughter.B. Different functions of animal laughter.C. The origin and development of human laughter.D. The relationship between animal laughter and intelligence.DThe word paradigm comes from the Greek. It was originally a scientific term, and is more commonly used today
39、to mean a model or theory. In the more general sense, its the way we “see” the world not in terms of our visual sense of sight, but in terms of perceiving, understanding, and interpreting.A simple way to understand paradigms is to see them as maps. We all know that “the map is not the territory.” A
40、map is simply an explanation of certain aspects of the territory. Thats exactly what a paradigm is. It is a theory, an explanation, or model of something else. You can never arrive at a specific location in a new city with a wrong map.Each of us has many maps in our head, which can be divided into t
41、wo main categories: maps of the way things are, or realities, and maps of the way things should be, or values. We interpret everything we experience through these mental maps. We seldom question their accuracy; were usually even unaware that we have them. We simply assume that the way we see things
42、is the way they really are or the way they should be. And our attitudes and behaviors grow out of those assumptions. The way we see things is the source of the way we think and the way we act.We see the world, not as it is, but as we are or, as we are conditioned to see it. Clearheaded people see th
43、ings differently, each looking through the unique lens of experience. But this does not mean that there are no facts. Instead, each persons interpretation of these facts represents prior experiences.The more aware we are of our basic paradigms, maps, or assumptions, and the extent to which we have b
44、een influenced by our experience, the more we can take responsibility for those paradigms, examine them, test them against reality, listen to others and be open to their perceptions, thereby getting a larger picture and a far more objective view.32. How does the author illustrate the concept of “par
45、adigm”?A. By comparing it to an everyday object.B. By sorting it into different categories.C. By presenting personal examples.D. By highlighting a sharp contrast.33. What can be concluded about the mental maps mentioned in paragraph 3?A. They fail to escape our attention.B. They may be lacking in ac
46、curacy.C. They prove wrong and unreliable.D. They have little influence on behavior.34. Which of the following echoes the main idea of paragraph 4?A. Great minds think alike.B. All men have opinions, but few think.C. Where we stand depends on where we sit.D. The fewer the facts, the stronger the opi
47、nions.35. What does the author advocate in the last paragraph?A. A better understanding of our paradigms.B. A stronger sense of responsibility for others.C. A more objective view of others perceptions.D. A more positive attitude toward life experience.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白
