B A year after he died at the age of 17, a young man's love of helping others lives on. Through a foundation established by his parents, Benjamin Canlas is still making the world a better place. The Benjamin Canlas Courage to be Kind Foundation gives away mountain bikes to Filipinos who are struggling to make ends meet. Dr. Glennda Canlas and her husband created the foundation to remember their son and his kindness. One time, Benjamin saw a food seller riding a beat-up bicycle with its pedals missing. He used his own savings to replace them. After Benjamin's death, his parents saw a way to connect their private donors with those in need. In the Philippines, many businesses have been closed and many jobs have been lost as a result of the coronavirus crisis. This has left thousands of Filipinos struggling to survive and many have to take odd jobs, which means traveling from one place to another. However, public transportation has been severely restricted. So many people have no choice but to complete those jobs on foot, walking hours in the sun or rain. Benjamin's parents had the idea to give away bikes to deserving individuals nominated by their friends or coworkers. When the giveaway contest was announced, they received more than 50 nominations, all of which were then checked for truthfulness. And on July 11, 27 individuals got bicycles that would help make their lives a little less difficult. Even as the contest ended, nominations continued to come in. The foundation said there are people still in need and much work needs to be done. "We live in a world where it still takes courage to be kind, " said Dr. Glennda Canlas, "The goal of the foundation is to help create a world where kindness does not require courage-it is simply the thing we all do." 24. Why was the Foundation started? A. To offer bikes to those out of work. B. To honor Benjamin Canlas' good deed. C. To promote green travel in the Philippines. D. To help Filipinos working in the countryside. 25. How does the Foundation find out who is in need? A. By conducting a survey. B. By organizing a contest. C. Through others' nominations. D. Through individual interviews. 26. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Filipinos are Suffering a Hard Time B. Parents' Love Makes the World Better C. Benjamin Deserves Filipinos' Respect D. Donated Bikes Keep Kindness Alive C The negative health impacts of plastic on both wildlife and humans have been well-documented. However, plastics, which are used for everything from grocery bags to food packaging, are hard to avoid. Now, French start-up Carbios wants to solve the world's plastic pollution problem with a mutant bacterial enzyme(酶)that digests PET—the most abundant polyester plastic(聚酷塑料)used to produce packaging and plastic bottles-and turns it into its chemical building blocks. The resulting material can be used to create anything and, more importantly, can be endlessly recycled. "Mechanical recycling is limited, " explains Carbios CEO Martin. "After 6 or 7 cycles of recycling, the plastic might only be good enough to use for something like the plastic on the backing of a carpet, and eventually, it will have to be thrown away. So it's not a solution for the end of life of plastics, whereas our solution is an unlimited recycling solution." The company's search for the best plastic-eating bacteria began about a decade ago, with 100, 000 promising candidates. The list was soon reduced to one-a leaf compost bug. Once it had been identified, Carbios scientists introduced mutations(突变). The new and improved enzyme was able to downgrade up to 90 percent of a ton of plastic in only l0 hours. To break down the plastic, the waste and the enzyme will be heated for 16 hours at 65℃. The resulting mix is then purified. This allows for the recovery of the chemical building blocks and removes any additives and colors that may be present. "This technique will certainly help reduce plastic pollution, " Martin said, "But we can only win the battle if people do a better job of ensuring plastic waste ends up in a recycling bin". 27. What is special about the Carbios' recycling technique? A. It can reshape any plastic products. B. It can produce more polyester plastic. C. It makes plastic continuously recycled. D. It changes the system of food packaging. 28. What does the underlined word "candidates" in paragraph 4 refer to? A. Plastic-eating bacteria. B. Negative effects on health. C. Chemical building blocks. D. French start-up, companies. 29. Why were mutations introduced? A. To purify the resulting mix. B. To remove additives and color. C. To keep the temperature at 65℃. D. To improve plastic-digesting ability. 30. What is the author's purpose in writing the text? A. To record the development of Carbios. B. To introduce a plastic recycling technique. C. To persuade people to use fewer plastic products. D. To explain how to identify plastic-eating bacteria. 第二节(共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Children who lack self-control don't lack intelligence.
