　　When Tom Szaky sees a juice container thrown away，he doesn’t see

　　rubbish，but

　　sees

　　pencil

　　case.Sweet wrappers? A beautiful kite! But these are not the imaginings of a dreamer.For the 28-year-old CEO of Trenton，New Jersey-based TerraCycle，they’re a business model.

　　The fast-talking Szaky is leading the new industry of upcycling (升级改造)．Instead of recycling，TerraCycle takes packaging headed for landfills (废物填埋地) and reuses it—more or less whole.TerraCycle’s 85 employees make nearly 200 products，sold at shops such as Petco，Kmart，Whole Foods Market，and Target.

　　Szaky’s $7.4 million company，now also moving ahead in Mexico，Canada，the United Kingdom and Brazil，is quite different from the business he founded with his classmate Jon Beyer in 2002 as a freshman at Princeton University.The two entered a business competition with a plan to sell organic plant fertilizers made from worm waste.They lost the competition，but started the business anyway.

　　With their goal—to make products entirely out of rubbish—suddenly clear，Szaky knew the time was right to drop out of Princeton.

　　TerraCycle’s first product used dining-hall waste to feed the worms and thrown-away bottles to package the fertilizer.The result: a cheap，green breakthrough.Word spread，and in 2004，Home Depot began carrying the fertilizer in its Canadian stores.

　　To Szaky，waste does not exist in nature.TerraCycle ’is a “second chance” employer of，say，a piece of furniture，an ice-cream container.As Szaky points out，“The biggest problem with most green，fair-trade，and organic products is that they tend to cost more.At TerraCycle，everything is made from rubbish，and rubbish is free.People should be able to protect the planet without having to pay a cost for that right.”

　　1．What is Tom Szaky now?

　　A．The CEO of TerraCycle.

　　B．An employee of Home Depot.

　　C．A student at Princeton University.

　　D．The manager of a food company.

　　2．How did Szaky get the idea of upcycling?

　　A．From his visits to foreign companies.

　　B．From his studies at Princeton University.

　　C．Through shopping at big stores in America.

　　D．Through the experience of a business competition.

　　3．What is the goal of TerraCycle?

　　A．To make cheap and green products.

　　B．To recycle waste materials in another way.

　　C．To make products completely out of rubbish.

　　D．To change worm waste into organic plant fertilizers.

　　4．What is the advantage of upcycling according to Szaky?

　　A．The cost is kept rather low.

　　B．More materials are available.

　　C．It has a large promising market.

　　D．Its products are environmentally friendly.

　　【语篇解读】　本文介绍了Szaky创立TerraCycle公司对垃圾进行升级改造，从而制造出新产品的经过及理念。

　　1．解析：选A。根据第一段中的“the 28-year-old CEO of Trenton，New Jersey-based TerraCycle”可知，Tom Szaky是TerraCycle公司的首席执行官。因此，该题选A。

　　2．解析：选D。根据第三段中的“The two entered a business competition with a plan to sell organic plant fertilizers made from worm waste.They lost the competition，but started the business anyway.”可知，Szaky从事升级改造产业的想法源于一次商业竞争的经历。因此，该题选D。

　　3．解析：选C。根据第四段中的“With their goal—to make products entirely out of rubbish...”可知，TerraCycle公司的目标是“完全用垃圾制造产品”。因此，该题选C。A、D两项都是该公司做的具体事情，而非其目标。B项与第二段中的“for landfills(废物填埋地)and reuses it...”的表述不一致。

　　4．解析：选A。根据最后一段中的“At TerraCycle，everything is made from rubbish，and rubbish is free.People should be able to protect the planet without having to pay a cost for that right.”可知，升级改造产业的优势在于原材料是免费，制造成本相当低廉。因此，该题选A。

　　Last Saturday，my 8-year-old son，Chase，and I were shopping in a supermarket.Chase was busy weighing each new bag of vegetables I collected.I handed him a bag of tomatoes and he walked over to the scale and waited patiently in line.Suddenly，an old man walked up behind Chase，and stepped before him，bumping Chase out of the way. Chase looked shocked and scared.Seeing this I left my shopping cart and walked over to Chase，saying loudly，“Are you all right，honey? I saw what that man did to you.That was very，very wrong.”

　　When the man finished weighing his bag，he turned around too quickly and all of his onions spilled out of his bag and onto the dirty floor.The three of us froze for a moment.Then I got down on my hands and knees and started collecting onions while the old man accepted them from my hands and put them back into his bag.After Chase and I retrieved all the onions，the old man walked away.We didn’t discuss the event until we got back in the car.

　　On the way home，Chase said through tears，“Mommy，I’ve a frustrating day.That man cut right in front of me.And we had to help him pick up his onions! Why did we do that? That didn’t make any sense.”

　　I took a deep breath and said，“Chase，that man seemed to have a very bad mood today.We should forgive him.I was also angry with that man for treating you rudely.I really wanted to kick him.But doing that doesn’t make any sense.If we hadn’t helped that old man，we might have felt good for a moment，but then I bet we would have felt really sorry for a long time.You and I have a lot of love to share.Maybe that man doesn’t have much.People who behave badly still need love.”

　　A cheerful smile appeared on Chase’s face.It was a smile of a promise kept.It was the best smile I have ever seen.God，it was a good moment.It may have been my best mommy moment ever.

　　【语篇解读】　文章介绍了几种有助于快速进入睡眠的方法。

　　1．考查同位语从句。设空处引导同位语从句，对thought进行解释说明，从句中不缺少成分，故用that引导。

　　that

　　of/about

　　3．考查冠词。play an important part意为“起重要作用，扮演重要角色”。

　　4．考查副词。由语境和句子结构可知应填副词especially。

　　especially

　　5．考查非谓语动词。make it＋difficult/easy etc.＋for sb.＋to do sth.中的it为形式宾语，真正的宾语为后面的不定式短语。
