But a

10、New Jersey based company, called TerraCycle, has taken on the challenge, and has come up with a way to recycle millions of cigarette ends and turn them into industrial plastic products. Its aim is to recycle things that people normally consider impossible to reuse.Obviously it would be even better f

11、or the environment if everyone just stopped smoking, but the statistics show that although there has been an increase in anti-smoking ads and messaging, between 2000 and 2014, global sales of cigarettes increased by 8 percent, and a whole lot of those cigarette ends are ending up as trash. Since mos

12、t of our litter eventually ends up in waterways, cigarette ends can surely pollute the surrounding environment. “It only takes a single cigarette end to pollute aliter of water,” Terra Cycle founder, Tom Szaky, said. “Animals can also mistake littered cigarette ends for food.”So how do you go about

13、turning all those poisonous ends into something useful? Terra Cycle does this by first breaking them down into separate parts. They mix the remaining materials, such as the tobacco and the paper, with other kinds of rubbish, and use it on non-agricultural land, such as golf courses. The filters (过滤嘴

14、) are a little harder. To recycle these, Terra Cycle first makes them clean and cuts them into small pieces, and then combines them with other recycled materials, making them into liquid for industrial plastic products.Theyre now also expanding their recycling offerings to the rest of the 80 percent

15、 of household waste that currently cant be recycled, such as chocolate packaging, pens, and mobile phones. The goal is to use the latest research to find a way to stop so much waste ending up in landfill (垃圾填埋), and then get companies to provide money for the process. And so far, its working.“We hav

16、ent found anything that we cant recycle,” communications director of Terra Cycle, Albe Zakes, said. “But with the amount and variety of packaging and litter in the world, we are always looking for new waste streams to address.”4. What does Terra Cycle intend to do?A. Search for recyclable materials

What Albe said in the last paragraph implies that .A. there is more and more waste to be recycledB. it is difficult for T

19、erra Cycle to recycle everythingC. Terra Cycle is trying to meet the challenge of new wasteD. Terra Cycle has successfully recycled a large amount of wasteCRats and other animals need to be highly tuned to social signals from others so that they can identify friends to cooperate with and enemies to

20、avoid. To find out if this extends to non-living beings, Loleh Quinn at the University of California, San Diego, and her colleagues tested whether rats can detect social signals from robotic rats.They housed eight adult rats with two types of robotic rat - one social and one asocial-for 5 days. The

21、robots rats were quite minimalist, resembling a chunkier version of a computer mouse with wheels-to move around and colorful markings.During the experiment, the social robot rat followed the living rats around, played with the same toys, and opened caged doors to let trapped rats escape. Meanwhile,

22、the asocial robot simply moved forwards and backwards and side to side.Next, the researchers trapped the robots in cages and gave the rats the opportunity to release them by pressing a lever.Across 18 trials each, the living rats were 52 percent more likely on average to set the social robot free th

23、an the asocial one. This suggests that the rats perceived the social robot as a genuine social being. They may have bonded more with the social robot because it displayed behaviours like communal exploring and playing. This could lead to the rats better remembering having freed it earlier, and wanti

24、ng the robot to return the favour when they get trapped, says Quinn.The readiness of the rats to befriend the social robot was surprising given its minimal design. The robot was the same size as a regular rat but resembled a simple plastic box on wheels. “Wed assumed wed have to give it a moving hea

25、d and tail, facial features, and put a scene on it to make it smell like a real rat, but that wasnt necessary,” says Janet Wiles at the University of Queensland in Australia, who helped with the research.The finding shows how sensitive rats are to social cues, even when they come from basic robots.

26、Similarly, children tend to treat robots as if they are fellow beings, even when they display only simple social signals. “We humans seem to be fascinated by robots, and it turns out other animals are too,” says Wiles.8. Quinn and her colleagues conducted a test to see if rats can .A. send out warni

What did the asocial robot do during the experiment?A. It followed the social robot.B. It played with some toys.C. It moved ar

According to Quinn, the rats released the social robot because they_ .A. tried to practice a means of escapeB. expected it to do the same in returnC. wanted to display their intelligenceD. considered that an interesting game11. It can be learned from th

29、e text that .A. rats are more sensitive to social cues than expectedB. rats are more socially active than other animalsC. rats behave differently from children in socializingD. rats appear to be adaptable to new surroundingsDYouve probably heard that brick-and-mortar retail(实体零售) is in trouble.
