29、orld a better place. Bike Batman is one of them. Bike Batman is a 30-year-old married engineer who lives in Seattle, Washington. Hes a cyclist who also buys and sells bikes as a hobby.About three years ago, he was looking for a bike for his wife. He found one on Craigslist, a website where people li

30、st things they want to sell. As he often does, he also looked at Bike Index, a popular website that allows users to register their bikes and post reports when theyre taken. The bike, which he was considering purchasing, clearly matched one reported stolen onBike Index. Then he called the person who

31、claimed to be the bikes owner and arranged to meet him supposedly to complete the sale. When the two men met, Bike Batman told the thief, “Youve got two options. You can wait until a police officer gets here, or you can just get out of here. You can imagine what the thief did. After that first succe

32、ss, Bike Batman developed a safer routine. When he sees questionable bike ads on Craigslist, he cross-references the image with bikes reported on Bike Index. Once he has confirmed it with the owner, he arranges a meet-up with the thief and will call the Seattle police department so that officers can

33、 participate in the action. In more than half of the 22 cases in which he has got back and returned bikes, the thieves have been arrested. In one case, Bike Batman even helped a family recover a wide range of prized possessions that suspects had stolen during a home burglary. His nickname came from

34、a discussion with a police officer who suggested he be called “Robin Hood. Since he wasnt exactly stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, “Batman seemed a better fit. The idea of a superhero punishing criminals feels pretty silly to him, but the main reason he continues his work is to keep up

35、 Seattles reputation as a friendly city. 39. Bike Batman is _. A. a superhero B. a website managerC. a Seattle citizen D. a police officer40. When Bike Batman discovers a questionable bike, he will first _. A. contact the owner of the stolen bikeB. look up the bikes information C. call the police de

36、partment D. arrange to meet the thief41. Bike Batman helps find the lost bikes to _. A. become famousB. help poor people C. punish bike thieves D. build a friendly city42. From the passage, we can learn that _.A. Bike Batman felt relieved to see the thieves arrested B. Bike Batman began his good dee

37、ds by accident C. the police failed to perform their dutiesD. the thieves refused to return the bikesCThe online takeaway industry is growing in China along with the rapid development of the Internet economy. But environmental activists complain that the huge volume of plastic utensils (用具), wrappin

38、g and containers presents a great challenge to the environment, and that the heavy use of throwaway wooden chopsticks is reducing natural resources.On September 1, the Beijing No.4 Intermediate Peoples Court accepted a lawsuit filed by the Chongqing Green Volunteer League, an environmental non-gover

39、nment organization (NGO), against the countrys three largest food delivery platformsBaidu Waimai, Ele.me and Meituan. The NGO stated that the companies failed to provide customers with the choice to not receive throwaway plastic utensils along with their food deliveries. Meanwhile, these utensils ha

40、ve created large amounts of rubbish and caused serious ecological damage.In response, both Meituan and Ele.me, which acquired Baidu Waimai in August, have promised to take measures to reduce plastic waste. Meituan announced that it would appoint a chief environmental officer to oversee environmental

41、 issues from plastic waste and upgrade its smartphone app to provide consumers with the option of ordering food without single-use chopsticks, spoons or napkins. Ele.me followed by offering a similar choice and putting forward a plan to introduce suppliers of degradable (可降解的) plastic utensils to re

42、staurants in the long term.Is there a possible way out? Combined efforts by delivery platforms, consumers, restaurants and government departments are required to address plastic waste pollution.For platforms, promoting environmental protection and introducing this idea to consumers are a meaningful

43、move. Moreover, in the future, they should also make strict rules on the use of plastic utensils. For example, no more than one plastic bag should be used to wrap soup dishes, and all plastic products should be degradable. It is a long and difficult task for them, and the recent reactions from Ele.m

44、e and Meituan are just beginnings.Considering most takeout food packaging is thrown into garbage bins and then taken away along with other household garbage, sorting of waste also becomes more important. Government departments could play a major role in this, and by recycling some materials, waste p

45、ollution could be reduced and resources saved. Furthermore, there have been growing calls that the government should also invest more in developing degradable plastic products or environmentally friendly alternatives.Though consumers enjoy the convenience yet also suffer exposure to the pollution, m

46、any of them have paid little attention to the plastic waste problem. Environmental groups suggest that consumers change their habits a little by using their own utensils and dishes and refusing unnecessary plastic containers. 43. The Chongqing Green Volunteer League accused the three food delivery p

47、latforms of _. A. causing damage to peoples health B. violating environmental standards C. using many wooden chopsticks D. offering no utensil option 44. The author suggests food delivery platforms _. A. Raise peoples awareness.B. Research possible alternatives. C. Upgrade their application design.D

48、. Hire a chief environmental officer.45. Who probably plays a more important role in promoting the categorization of rubbish? A. government departmentsB. food delivery platforms C. environmental groupsD. fast food restaurants46. The passage is mainly concerned with _. A. why environmental problems a

49、rise B. who food delivery platforms affect most C. how plastic utensil pollution can be solvedD. what efforts environmental groups have madeDOwnership used to be about as straightforward as writing a cheque. If you bought something, you owned it. If it broke, you fixed it. If you no longer wanted it

50、, you sold it or threw it away. In the digital age, however, ownership has become more slippery. Since the coming of smartphones, consumers have been forced to accept that they do not control the software in their devices; they are only licensed to use it. As a digital chain is wrapped ever more tig

51、htly around more devices, such as cars and thermostats, who owns and who controls which objects is becoming a problem. Buyers should be aware that some of their most basic property rights are under threat.The trend is not always harmful. Manufacturers seeking to restrict what owners do with increasi

52、ngly complex technology have good reasons to protect their copyright, ensure that their machines do not break down, support environmental standards and prevent hacking. Sometimes companies use their control over a products software for the owners benefit. When Hurricane Irma hit Florida this month,

53、Tesla remotely updated the software controlling the batteries of some models to give owners more range to escape the storm.But the more digital strings are attached to goods, the more the balance of control leans towards producers and away from owners. That can be inconvenient. Picking a car is hard

54、 enough, but harder still if you have to dig up the instructions that tell you how use is limited and what data you must give. If the products are intentionally designed not to last long, it can also be expensive. Already, items from smartphones to washing machines have become extremely hard to fix,

55、 meaning that they are thrown away instead of being repaired.Privacy is also at risk. Users become terrified when iRobot, a robotic vacuum cleaner, not only cleans the floor but also creates a digital map of the inside of a home that can then be sold to advertisers (though the manufacturer says it h

56、as no intention of doing so). Cases like this should remind people how jealously they ought to protect their property rights and control who uses the data that is collected. Ownership is not about to go away, but its meaning is changing. This requires careful inspection. Devices, by and large, are s

57、old on the basis that they enable people to do what they want. To the extent they are controlled by somebody else, that freedom is compromised. 47. What benefit does it bring to customers if companies control the ownership of products? A. It provides them with knowledge to prevent hacking. B. It giv

58、es them the chance to be protected from danger. C. It enables them to own the copyright of the products. D. It helps them know more about complex technology.48. The underlined words “that freedom in the last paragraph refer to the freedom to _. A. control other peopleB. share the ownership C. inspec

59、t devices at any timeD. use devices as one wishes49. The author may agree _. A. customers should buy fewer digital devices B. producers should control property rights C. property rights need to be protectedD. better after sales service is required50. Which of the following shows the development of i

60、deas in the passage? A. B. C.
