29、d to his 85-year-oldneighbor for a few weeks before finally knocking on her door and introducing himself.“the day I enter her apartment and spoke with her face to face was the day my life was changed forever,“ Chris says.He learned that Cook had no family living in California and that she suffered f

31、 of the hospitaveral times. She once spent weeks in the hospital fighting pneumonia （ 肺炎） and breathing issues. Eventually Cook was told by one of her doctors that she could no longer live at home unless she had 24-hour care. Because Cook had no money saved to pay her health care costs, Chris starte

32、d a GoFundMe account to help cover her bills.But caretakers are expensive and Cook quickly went through the $34,445 they raised. Knowing her days at home were limited, Chris invited Cook to move in with him to save money.“She loves it! I do most of my work at home so I am here most of the time to ca

33、re for her. It only made sense to both of us, " Chris wrote. " She is my adopted grandmother after all and I am her grandson she never had.“Cook still has weekly hospice health care visits and regular visits from caregivers, so any funds raised cover those expenses, he wrote.Though doctors

34、 say Cook ' s days are very limited, the pair are enjoying spending time together drinking champagne and snuggling with her cat, Hermes, who also made the move.“She does not want to change, " Chris told Today. " My apartment was the only place she would have moved. She has strong opini

35、ons about where she wants to carry out the rest of her days, and she wants to stay here.”Chris says he feels like the relationship was fate. " Moving her in.it feels as though it was meant to be all along, “ he said. "It ' s really fulfilling （有成就感的） to be there for her."40. Chris

38、 T-shirtWe all probably have a lot of T-shirts, but do you ever stop and think about the influence of a T-shirt on the planet? You ' d probably be surprised to learn what's involved in the lifecycle of just oneiT.There are 5 major stages: material, production, shipping, use and disposal The

39、material stage involves farming, irrigating, fertilizing, harvesting and ginning. While cotton is a natural fiber （ 纖維）and not as harmful to the environment as manmade fibers, it still takes a toll in the material and production stages. Commercial cotton farming uses a large amount of water, and the

40、 use of pesticides （殺蟲劑）is widespread across the globe, especially in cotton farming. Studies have shown that farmers spend around $4.1 billion on pesticides annually, of which 25% was spent on cotton crops in the US.Once the cotton is grown and harvested, so begins the production stage: spinning, k

41、nitting, bleaching, dyeing, cutting, sewing, etc.these processes also use a great deal of water and energy. Commercialdyes and bleaches are harmful pollutants and can eventually pollute groundwater.After the T-shirt is produced, it enters the transportation stage. This often involves overseas shippi

42、ng. Take a look in your closet. Chances are that most of your cotton garments （ 衣服） are made in China or India. Garments can be shipped via plane, ship or truck ，all of which spill CO2 into the atmosphere.Calculations show that C0 2 emissions from light trucks alone amount to 1.15 pounds per mile.On

43、ce the T-shirt reaches the retail market, it is purchased. This stage may seem like the least environmentally damaging part. But consider the number of times you5ve washed and dried your favorite T-shirt. Washing machines are certainly becoming more efficient. However, the average American household

44、 does 400 loads of laundry per year, using about 40 gallons of water per load. Such excessive water use is combined with the large amount of energy used by dryers.The final stage of life is disposal. This releases harmful emissions, or involves a landfill where cotton takes years to break down. Curr

45、ent US records show that an estimated 15% of clothes and shoes are recycled, which means that consumers send a shocking 85% of these materials to landfills.We all need new clothes every once in a while, but let ' as try to keep in mind what goes into the production of clothing. It has a real imp

46、act on the planet.There are a lot of things you can do to help reduce your impact. Reuse and recycle clothes. If they5re too worn out to wear, cut them up and use them as cleaning rags. Donate them to charity or another organization that recycles textiles. When possible, make an effort to buy organi

47、c cotton. Turn down the thermostat on your washer, and line dry your clothes when the weather will allow it.43. The underlined phrase “takes a toll " probably means ”A. wastes water B. takes a lot of time C. uses energy D. has a bad effect44. We can learn from the passage that in the US,.A. pes

48、ticides in cotton farming cost over 4 billion dollars every yearB. C02 emissions of land transport amount to 1.15 pounds per mileC. about 15% of the clothes and shoes are made of materials that are recycledD. about 16, 000 gallons of water is used annually by an average family on laundry45. What can

49、 be inferred from this passage?A. The production process may affect water safety.B .The clothing cost is relatively low in China and India.C. Cotton clothes are buried because they are hard to break down.D. The use stage is the least environmentally harmful of the five stages.46. What is the purpose

50、 of this article?A. To encourage people to donate clothes to charity.B. To promote eco-friendly actions related to clothes.C. To persuade people to purchase more organic cotton.D. To introduce the five stages in the lifecycle of clothing.DEudaimonia is an Ancient Greek word, particularly stressed by

51、 the philosophers Plato and Aristotle, which deserves far more attention than it has because it corrects the shortfalls （ 缺失）in one of the most central, but troubling words in our modem language: happiness.When we nowadays try to clearly express the purpose of our lives , it is the word “ happiness&

52、quot; that we commonly turn to. We tell ourselves and others that the most important principle for our jobs, our relationships and the conduct of our day-to-day lives is the pursuit of happiness. It sounds like an innocent enough idea, but too much reliance on the term means that we frequently unfai

53、rly tend to quit or, at least, heavily question a great many challenging but worthwhile situations. The Ancient Greeks did not believe that the purpose of life was to be happy; they proposed that it was to achieve Eudaimonia, a word which has beenbest translated as “ fulfilment ".What distingui

54、shes happiness from fulfilment is pain. It is very possible to be fulfilled and at the same time under pressure, suffering physically or mentally, overburdened and, quite frequently, in an irritable （易怒的） mood. This is a slight psychological difference that is hard for the word “ happiness” to captu

55、re, for it 'tricky to speak of being happy yet unhappy, or happy yet suffering. However, such a combination is readily accommodated within the respected and noble-sounding idea of Eudaimonia.The word encourages us to trust that many of life msst worthwhile projects will sometimes be in conflict

56、with contentment, and yet will be worth pursuing. Properly exploring our professional talents, managing a household, keeping a relationship going, creating a new business venture or engaging in politics. none of these goals are likely to leave us cheerful and grinning on a daily basis. They will, in

57、 fact, involve us in all manner of challenges that will deeply exhaust and weaken us, provoke （ 激怒）and wound us. And yet we will perhaps, at the end of our lives, still feel that the tasks were worth undertaking. Through them, we ' ll haveeved something deeper and more interesting than happiness

58、.With the word Eudaimonia in mind, we can stop imagining that we are aiming for a pain-free existence and then blaming ourselves unfairly for being in a bad mood. We' ll know that we are trydo something far more important than smile all the time: we're striving to do justice to our full human potential.47. What do we know about “ Eudaimonia " from the passage? A. It was first created by two Greek philosophers.B . It has received a lot of attention fro
