11、 toilet paper,until he got to a point where his trash（垃圾）for an entire year fit in just two plastic bags!Karwat,who is originally from India,started the trash-free experiment when he lived in Ann Arbor,Michigan,and managed to keep it going for two and a half years.In the first year,he produced only

12、7.5 pounds of trash,and in the second year,he brought that number down to 6 pounds,which is a mind-blowing 0.4 percent of the 1,500 pounds of yearly trash produced by the average American.Looking back,Karwat says that his inspiration to start the project came from a radio show The Story,on which he

13、heard of a British couple who lived trash-free.His trash mostly consisted of a few chip bags,glass milk-bottle caps,fruit stickers,and broken glass.He obviously had to make lots of sacrifices to achieve this he stopped buying any kind of packaged food 3including cheeses,only drank milk from recycled

14、 glass bottles,and gave up on buying new clothes or stuff for his home no gadgets,furniture,or even cups.He began carrying his own fork,spoon,plate,and a bowl everywhere he went,just to avoid plastic cutlery（餐具）.I needed to change the way I lived,and I had to get creative,he added.When a restaurant

15、furnished a napkin-wrapped（包纸的）fork and knife,I asked the server to change them for cutlery without the napkin.Id remember to say No straw!after asking for water and to make sure the veggie（素食者）burger I ordered didnt come with a wooden pick holding it together.I did what I had to do,and it was awkwa

17、t Karwat said in the last paragraph shows that.Ahe seldom went to a restaurantBit wasnt convenient to live the lifeCthe server seemed cold to himDhe was proud of what he had been doingBTo move visual technology into the future,sometimes it helps to make a little noise.Researchers have used sound wav

18、es to produce floating 3-D images,create a sense of touch and even supply a soundtrack.Since the 1940s,scientists have toyed with the concept of acoustic levitation(声悬浮),the use of soundwave vibrations（震动）to trap tiny things in midair.The technology has gained greater capabilities in the past decade

19、.Some researchers believe this improvement could lead to applications such as contributing to novel 3-D printing methods,or creating displays that would be visible from any angle without requiring a screen.Other researchers have also worked on visual displays that use acoustic levitation.In addition

20、 to visuals,the system can also produce audible noise to give the display a soundtrack.And the ultrasound speakers can also concentrate vibrations in one spot so that a finger might feel a sense pushing backa little like the object shown by the floating image is really there.Soundwaves create a 3-D

21、display!Display without a screen is remarkably useful.It means that everybody in the room can see the imageany angle,locationand thats extremely helpful.As a communications system,such a display might one day allow users to chat with a 3-D projection(投影)of a person who can turn his or her head to fo

22、llow as they move around a room.The display will require a lot more work before you can install it in your living room,however.So far,this has been done in the research laboratory.We need to push it a little bit harder.We need to do more analysis to see if it would make sense to create a real displa

23、y that people would have at home.The current system can only show simple graphics,such as a smiley face or figure eight,in real time.Still,we are optimistic about the potential for this type of technology.If the system had only one speaker-covered surface instead of two,it could generate images that

24、 are bigger than the device itself.We cant make a TV image thats bigger than the TVeven a projector has to have a projection screen thats bigger than the image itself.But with a volumetric(容积的)display,a small,portable device might produce a much larger picture.We can imagine,in the future,having vol

28、cing Sense of Touch3-D Images Float in the AirDPromoting TV TechnologyChat with 3-D ProjectionsCThe world we live in is becoming increasingly complex and uncertain.And with it,the conventional thinking of yesterday is no longer sufficient.Creating real breakthrough opportunities requires a fundament

29、al change in our thinking.As Einstein said,We cant solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.Theres no better example of this than the myth of the four-minute mile.For centuries,runners had been attempting to run a mile in under four minutes.In the 1950s,the atte

30、mpt to break the barrier took on renewed importance,and a number of famous runners publicly and unsuccessfully attempted the challenge.Many of the newspapers of the day began to question whether humans would ever be able to run a sub-four-minute mile.Then,in 1954,a man named Roger Bannister did the

31、unthinkable.He broke through the imaginary barrier,running the mile in 3 minutes and 59.4 seconds.It was an amazing achievement.But heres whats really interesting:it was only forty-six days later that another runner broke Bannisters record.And the following year,two new runners broke the four-minute

32、 mark in the same race.Dozens followed,and as of this writing,more than 1,400 runners have accomplished the goal,including one runner who ran two miles in less than eight minutes.Did something change with respect to human body,track conditions,weather patterns,running shoes,or the human diet between

33、 the start of Bannisters race and the few years that followed?No.So what explains the sudden and dramatic explosion of athletic achievement?The myths unimaginable power over runners had lifted.What Bunnister had done was not just break the four minute mile barrier;he shattered(粉碎)the myth that creat

34、ed the barrier in the first place.This paradigm(榜样)had offered a set of actions available for runners to take.Runners were really free to run through the invented boundary.Creating breakthroughs requires shattering the myths that limit our imagination and lock us into conventional thinking.Think abo

35、ut your own situation.What myths are you stuck in?And what would be 5possible if you had the courage to challenge the myths?28What is needed to create breakthroughs?AConventional thinking.BChanges in our thinking.CComplex situation.DEinsteins encouragement.29What was the real barrier that kept runne

36、rs succeeding in the four-minute mile?AThe belief that it was unachievable.BLack of professional training.CThe poor track conditions.DLack of sufficient diet.30The example of Roger Bannister is used to _.Alist a new record in the raceBprove newspapers are wrongCshow barrier can be brokenDcall on us

37、to learn from him31What does the writer try to explain in Paragraph 6?AThe power of the myth.BThe achievements of Bannister.CThe importance of running freely.DThe significance of breaking barriers.32What is the best title of the passage?ACreating BreakthroughsBAccepting the MythsCLocking Your Imagin

38、ationDBecoming the Best AthleteDIts difficult to imagine now,but at certain points in the Earths history,ice covered the entire planet.This frozen Earth,nicknamed Snowball Earth,was so severe that the Earths entire surface,from pole to pole,including the oceans,completely froze over,said Melissa Hag

39、e,an environmental scientist at Emory University in Georgia.In 1840,Louis Agassiz,a Swiss natural scientist,was among the first to acknowledge and provide evidence that the Earth had gone through ice ages.Joseph Kirschvink,an American geologist,later created the term Snowball Earth in a 1992 textboo

40、k.Scientists believe that four severe ice ages occurred between 750 million and 580 million years ago,probably because the Earths lands were all located at or near the equator(赤道),which resulted in increased weathering(风化).Weathering is happening when wind and rain break down rocks and minerals on t

41、he planets surface.The process leads to decreased carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere,which allows more heat to get away from the surface and into space,cooling the planet,causing the planet into a deep freeze.The severe ice ages eventually melted away.Scientist believe that volcanoes continued

42、to pump carbon dioxide into the atmosphere throughout the ice ages,eventually warming the planet enough that the water cycle could restart.As the Earth warmed and came out of its deep freeze.a huge explosion of life occurred.known as the Cambrian(寒武纪)explosion.Will we see another Snowball Earth in o

43、ur future?According to Hage,its unlikely,due to the spread-out of the continents.Even with extreme winters,continental ice sheets would form,which would stop continental weathering and allow carbon dioxide to build up in the atmosphere,leading to warming rather than freezing,she said.33What do we kn

44、ow about the Earth according to the passage?AThe term Snowball Earth was first used in 1840.BMillions of years ago,the Earths lands werent where they are now.CWeathering was the main factor of warming the Earth.6DThe Earth was completely covered with ice during the Cambrian period.34What probably le
