23. What is the text?
A
．
A book review.
Consider what goes through your mind after you’ve taken your seat on an airplane. You’ve not seen
the captain, but his or her voice comes over the air. “Hello, this is your captain speaking.” Are you
about to fly the friendly skies? What you probably don’ realize is that you do make quick judgments
(
判断
) based on very few factors the moment you hear “hello”.
Experts have discovered that “hello” carries enough information for listeners to draw judgments
about the speakers personality, such as how reliable (
可信赖的
) he or she is. They recorded 64
students reading a telephone conversation. The word “hello” was then picked from each recording,
and 320 different students listened to that word through a computer. The students were asked to
score the voices according to personality, including attractiveness and warmth, giving them points
from l to 10. Although every voice was played in one third a second, the students formed an opinion
quickly.
It is amazing that from such short voices of speech they can get such an obvious impression of a
person. And whether it is correct, their impressions are mostly the same as what the other listeners
get. The research also suggests that people’ impressions are based on the tone (
语调
) of voice. Men
and women who present the strength of their voices are regarded as more reliable.
The speed with which the students made their judgments makes much sense. Deciding who to trust
can be important to your survival. There’s no point in listening to someone talk for 5 minutes to
decide if they’re reliable or not — you could be dead already. The discovery may help improve
computer-made voice technologies, experts say.

A method to transform a commonly thrown-away plastic to a resin (
树脂
) used in 3D printing could
allow for making better use of plastic waste. A team of Washington State University researchers
developed a simple and efficient way to transform polylactic acid (PLA)(
聚乳酸
), a bio-based
plastic used in products such as filament, plastic silverware and food packaging to a high-quality
resin.
“We found a way to immediately turn this into something that’s stronger and better, and we hope
that will provide people the inspiration to upcycle this stuff instead of just throw it away,” said Yu-
Chung Chang, a postdoctoral researcher in the WSU School of Mechanical and Materials
Engineering and a co-corresponding author on the work. “We made stronger materials just straight
out of trash. We believe this could be a great opportunity.”
Although it’s bio-based, PLA, which is categorized as a number 7 plastic, doesn’t break down
easily. It can float in fresh or salt water for a year without degrading (
降解
). It is also rarely recycled
because like many plastics, when it’s melted down and re-formed, it doesn’t perform as well as the
original version and becomes less valuable.
“It’s biodegradable and compostable, but once you look into it, it turns out that it can take up to 100
years for it to rot away in a landfill,” Chang said. “In reality, it still creates a lot of pollution. We
want to make sure that when we do start producing PLA on the milliontons scale, we will know how
to deal with it.”
While the researchers focused on PLA for the study, they hope to apply the work to poly-ethylene
terephthalate (PET) (
涤纶树脂
), which is more common than PLA and has a similar chemical
structure and presents a bigger waste problem. They have filed a temporary patent and are working

D
．

to further optimize (
优化
) the process. The researchers are also looking into other applications for
the upcycling method.
28. What can the method help do according to paragraph 1?
A
．
Solve financial crisis.
C
．
Control plastic production.
B
．
Change waste into wealth.
D
．
Determine 3D printing skills.
29. What does Yu-Chung Chang think of the method?
A
．
Promising. B
．
Unrealistic. C
．
Imaginable. D
．
Reliable.
30. Which of the following is a feature of number 7 plastics?
A
．
Invaluable to recycle.
C
．
Hard to break down.
31. What is the text mainly about?
A
．
Applications for an upcylcing method.
B
．
A better method to break down plastic.
C
．
3D printing with newly found materials.
D
．
A new way to turn plastic into valuable products.
Working from home has become common, during the course of the pandemic(
疫情
), leaving many
with a newfound appreciation of the freedom and flexibility of working remotely. However, while
the traditional idea of an office—a place away from home, typically owned or rented by the
business—may have changed, the need for specific office space hasn’t.
In fact, this period of working from home has highlighted just how important it is to have a place of
work, which is separate from daily family life. Without that, many have noted concerns over a
worsened work-life balance.
Perhaps the most distinctive characteristic of the office of the future will be its hybrid solution. It
should marry the beneficial parts of a physical company-owned workspace with the benefits of
working from home.
As teams have proven their ability to efficiently get their jobs done remotely, employers will be
much more open to the flexible approach moving forward. The positive impacts of a physical office
on things like company culture, communication, team spirit and shared knowledge should not be
ignored, which is why tangible space is still very much a necessity.
The solution for the future will enable employees to come into the company’s workplace in order not
to miss out on these valuable office benefits, but also work from home when required for a better
work-life balance. Both large and smaller companies have already started to adopt this new
approach, allowing teams to create schedules for when they will be working from home, or even use
an online booking system to secure a desk space in the shared facility. This way, the company can

．
Easy to deal with.
D
．
Difficult to sort out.
