There was a time when a trip to the supermarket in the United States often ended with a seemingly simple question from the cashier: “Paper or pla

21、stic?” Well, which type of bag would you choose?While all types of bags have some influence on the environment, it has long been supposed that paper bags are kinder. They are made from a renewable source, break down easily, burn without giving off thick smoke and can be recycled. However, the produc

22、ing process behind paper bags uses more energy than that of plastic ones. How can this be true?Studies show that paper bag production requires four times as much energy as plastic bag production. And the amount of water used to make them is twenty times higher. Besides, the influence on forests is v

23、ery serious. It takes about fourteen million trees to produce ten billion paper bags, which happens to be the number of bags used in the United States yearly. In terms of recycling, the idea that paper bags are more environment-friendly than plastic ones can be quickly discarded. Research shows it r

24、equires about 98% less energy to recycle plastic than it does paper.Even though paper bags might be more harmful than plastic ones, plastic still seems to be considered by governments as the more harmful of the two. In Ireland, for example, a tax has been introduced to discourage the use of plastic

25、bags. People have to pay 22 cents for every plastic bag, and as a result, their use has dropped quickly.Theres no doubt that it makes more sense to reuse these bags. However, we dont seem to be doing that at present. That may be because they fall apart quickly. If so, cloth bags are a better choice,

26、 but still, their production also has a bad influence on the environment. So what to do? How should we answer the question of “Paper or plastic?” It seems that we first need to ask ourselves one more general question: “What can I do to help the environment?”32. The questions in Paragraph 1 are used

27、to_.A. introduce points for discussionB. tell readers how to save moneyC. express the authors doubtsD. show the kindness of the cashier33. Compared with plastic bags, paper bags_.A. take more time to break downB. require less energy to recycleC. need more water to produce D. have less influence on f

28、orests34. The underlined word “discarded” in Paragraph 3 probably means “_”.A. shared B. put forward C. discussed D. given up 35. Which question does the author probably hope the cashier will ask?A. Paper or cloth?B. A new bag or your own one ?C. A small bag or big one?D. Paper or plastic?參考答案：ACDB2

29、2. The effects of coffee consumption on health have long been a subject of conflict and uncertainty. Since the 1980s, some have spoken out against coffee as harmful to health, while others have welcomed coffee for its supposed benefits to health.According to a scientific report, mild coffee consumpt

30、ion, three to five cups per day, can be taken as a healthy dietary pattern, along with other healthful behaviors. The report also says that coffee consumption helps reduce the risk of heart disease and it protects against Parkinsons disease.According to Dr. Donaldhensrud of Mayo Clinic, high consump

31、tion of coffee has health risks. Dr.Hensrud mentions the dangers of high coffee consumption for people with a certain illness that slows the breakdown of caffeine in the body. Some studies said that drinking two or more cups of coffee daily can actually increase the risk of heart disease in these peopleAccording to conclusions from a recent study led by Dr Gregory Marcus, a doctor from the University of California San Francisco, daily moderate consumption of caffeine, less than 4 cups, isnot associated with these issues.Until the scientific community reaches a general agreement on the effec
