An eco-friendly Danish company has come up with a new product—plantable pencils, as a way of highlighting the concept of sustainability(可持续性). The creations made by Danish company Sprout focus on things you can recycle and plant like pencils, cards and stickers.

Their plantable pencils are one of their hot products, As the name suggests, plantable pencils are fitted with a small capsule at the end that contains seeds. Michael Stausholm, Sprout’s chief manager, says once the pencil is too short to use, it can be planted in soil instead of being thrown away. “It shows people—kids, grownups—in a very easy way what sustainability is all about. Don’t just use things and throw them away. Use things, and then use them for something else. In this case, we give it new life. ”

The seeds inside the capsules range from flowers to herbs and fruiting plants. The botanist says they are testing out more varieties, especially those difficult to grow in cooler northern European homes to ensure their pencils contain the best possible variety of a particular seed.

Stausholm said, “People seem to really love the eco pencil and the fact that it has so many practical uses. I also think the fact that it is 100 per cent sustainable and is handmade from only natural materials makes it more appealing.

Sprout now sells between 300,000 and 400,000 pencils a month. IKEA, Disney, Pepsi, and Bank of America, as well as public bodies and citizens, are all on Sprout’s customer list.

They are also developing small waterproof boxes called “Tiny Gardens”, targeted at people who don’t want to keep soil in the kitchen.

Though some are ignoring their importance when it comes to longer term sustainability, Stausholm says the plantable products can still make an impact. “We don’t think that we save the planet at all, but it’s a small thing, it’s the small things that we do in our everyday lives, step by step. We can all make a difference in the way we think when we consume.”

33. What’s special about the plantable pencil?

A. It can grow into different plants.

B. It can be made into different seeds.

C. It can be planted in special soil.

D. It can be kept in waterproof boxes.

34. What can we learn from the passage?

A. Plantable pencil is the only successful product of Sprout.

B. Only handmade products will have sustainability.

C. The plantable pencils have become popular in many countries.

D. The eco pencil are refused in northern European countries.

35. The author writes the passage in order to .

A. advertise the plantable pencils to the world

B. introduce a new and sustainable way of writing

C. make a difference in the world step by step

D. introduce a new and eco-friendly product

高中英语素养阅读限时练习(高二上11)附答案解析

高中英语素养阅读限时练习（高二上11）（附答案详细解析） （建议用时：40分钟） In seventeen seventy-six, a new nation declared its freedom from Britain. The Declaration of Independence was the document written to express the reasons for seeking that freedom. It stated that all men were created equal. It said that all men had the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Not every citizen of the new United States of America had one important right, however. That was the right to vote. At first, the only people permitted to vote in the United States were white men who owned property and could read. By eighteen sixty, most white male citizens over the age of twenty-one had the right to vote. The Fourteenth and Fifteenth corrections to the Constitution gave black male citizens the right to vote. These corrections were passed in eighteen sixty-eight and eighteen seventy. In America in the eighteen hundreds, Women had no economic independence. For example, everything a woman owned when she got married belonged to her husband. If a married woman worked, the money she made belonged to her husband. In addition, women had no political power. They did not have the right to vote. In the eighteen fifties, women organized in an effort to gain voting rights. Their campaign was called the women's suffrage movement. American women sought to gain that right for more than seventy years. One of the leaders of the movement was Susan B. Anthony of Massachusetts. Miss Anthony was a teacher. She believed that women needed economic and personal independence. She also believed that there was no hope for social improvement in the United States until women were given the same rights as men. The rights included the right to vote in public elections. Susan B. Anthony was born in eighteen twenty. Her parents were members of the Quaker religion. She became one, too. The Quakers believed that the rights of women should be honored. They were the first religious group where women shared the leadership with men. 1. What right don’t some people have in the new nation? A. The right to life. B. The right to the pursuit of happiness. C. The right to vote. D. The right to be equal. 2. What can be inferred from the 3rd paragraph? A. Women had to work. B. Women fought for political power. C. Women fought against their husbands for economic independence. D. Women were not really full citizens in America in the 1800s. 3. What can we know about Miss Anthony? A. She was born in 1820. B. She was a white teacher of twenty-one. C. She didn’t hope women were given the same rights as men. D. She fought for women’s economic and personal independence. 4. The underlined word “suffrage” in the last paragraph probably means “________ ” .

Now he was free as a bird — free to draw, paint, play basketball, and watch television…anything he wanted to do. Suddenly, the doorbell rang, startling (使惊吓) him. It was his pain of a cousin, Max. “Hi!” screamed Max as he jumped on Kevin’s bed. “I have come to stay here for the holidays.” Kevin had never expected his mother’s surprise to be this bad. If this was the start of his vacation, then the next few weeks were going to be the worst experience of his life. The next few days were horrible for Kevin. After breakfast, Kevin decided to make a painting. Luckily, Max was not around. Kevin spread out all his art supplies and started painting some beautiful scenery. When he was doing the finishing touches, Max entered the room with a Pepsi bottle. He slipped on some water, spilling Pepsi all over the painting and totally ruining it. The next day was even worse. Everything was peaceful until the evening. It all started when Max put the dirty clothes in the washing machine. After some time, Kevin heard some strange sounds from the washing machine. He went to check and found that Max had put his best pair of shoes into the machine, along with the clothes. One day, Kevin was looking through the newspaper when some interesting news caught his attention. He read it aloud: “The world famous philatelist (集邮家) Dick Brown’s stamps were stolen last week from his house. Several other stamp robberies also have taken place, and police suspect that all the robberies are linked.” This piece of news concluded by warning all stamp collectors to keep their stamps safe.
