The transplant was a success. "It's pretty miraculous to be able to take an organ out of one person's body—a living organ—put it in another person's body, and have it work.” Doug says. "And there's nothing finer than knowing I've helped another person live a better life.

It would not be an overstatement to say that salt is one of the greatest discoveries in the history of
mankind. Just imagine how tasteless our food would have been had salt not been discovered. Apart, from adding flavor to our food, it is also an essential ingredient for the health of both man as well as animals, provided it is taken in the right quantities. Salt is also used by the food processing and meat packing industries as a seasoning or preservative ingredient.
Salt has always been helpful in the building of communities and societies, as man normally built his settlements around the sources of salt. At one point of time, salt was also used as a currency. Today, there are many countries around the world that are working hard to extract （提炼）salt so that we can enjoy our food to the fullest. Some of these are producing enough salt to satisfy the requirement of the entire world, while others are producing just enough to support their own people.
According to the British Geological Survey, China is the top salt producer in the world. The United States of America occupies the second position, and India, finishing a distant third. Other countries that, made it among the top ten salt producing nations' list were Canada, Australia, Germany, Mexico, Chile, France and the Netherlands.
Countries that produced more than 1 million tonnes of salt in 2017 included Peru, Bangladesh, Thailand, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Romania, Egypt, Poland, and the United Kingdom, to name a few. Ranked at the bottom of the list were the African nations of Mauritania and Djibouti.
So, the next time you take your meal and add a pinch of salt to make it more delicious, do share a thought for the numerous salt workers around the world due to whom our food tastes so perfect.

These days, many people are concerned about plastic waste； however, the convenience and cost of plastic food packaging are hard to beat. But now, a growing number of inventors are trying to make edible（可食用的）packaging and tableware from foods like seaweed, milk proteins and potato starch, according to an article in Chemical & Engineering News, the weekly newsmagazine of the American Chemical Society.
Edible films, wrappers and straws have already found a specialty market and are starting to attract attention from larger food and beverage companies, according to freelance contributor Prachi Patel. At the 2019 London Marathon, the start-up company Notpla handed out sports drink, packaged in seaweed-based capsules, to thirsty runners. Although the packaging is safe to swallow, runners can choose to spit out the film. In that case, it breaks down in only 4-6 weeks. The New York-based company Loliware is making
seaweed-based straws that feel like plastic for 24 hours after getting wet. Once used, they can be eaten, or they will break down in the environment within 2 months. Marriott Hotels and alcoholic-beverage firm Pernod Ricard have already started using the straws.
Although edible packaging is gaining ground, challenges remain. Some worry about the hygiene（卫生）of eating packaging that has been touched or exposed to germs during transport or while sitting on the shelf. Experts agree that edible packaging will require an outer layer, but these materials could also be made from sustainable materials, such as. paper. Another obstacle is public acceptance： will people eat something that is usually thrown away? Consumers could perhaps be convinced if the packaging includes nutrients, such as vitamins or proteins, or just tastes good. And finally, improvements in heat and moisture stability need to be made before edible packaging can enjoy widespread use.
32. What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 1?
A. Plastic is convenient and cheap.
B. People are concerned about plastic.
C. Seaweed can be widely used as wrappers.
D. New food packaging is catching more attention.
33. Which of the following can best describe Notpla?
A. It is a computer company. B. It produces edible straws.
C. It is run by Prachi Patel. D. It's a newly founded company.
34. What is implied in the third paragraph?
A. Edible packaging may cause more pollution.
B It takes time for edible packaging to be popular.
C. No one but experts support edible packaging.
D. Edible packaging will certainly replace plastic.
35. What can be the best title of this text?
A. Edible Food Packaging B. Environmental Issues
C. Brand New Inventions D. The Food of the Future

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余
选项。
Atoms and molecules in the air move constantly. 36 In high-pressure systems, the molecules inside the system move faster than those that surround it. The opposite occurs in low-pressure systems, where the air inside the low is moving more slowly than in the surrounding area.
Air flows around a high-or low-pressure system in much the same way as water swirls （旋涡）around a hole. In the Northern Hemisphere, air that moves into a high-pressure system flows outward in a clockwise pattern. Air flowing upward in a region of low pressure moves counterclockwise. 37
Air is more dense（密集的）in a region of high pressure, so the air pushes out toward less dense regions. The air mass begins to warm as it goes down, which prevents the formation of clouds。. The
presence of clouds indicates that rain may be present in the air. 38 In a region of low pressure, the air rises. As it does, the air mass cools and clouds form from the humidity（湿气）inside the air mass.
39 Once the droplets are heavy enough, they fall to the ground. When temperatures are warm, rain is the result. If temperatures are low? the result is snow. When water droplets fall through relatively warmer or colder air masses on the journey to Earth, the low- pressure system may bring snow or ice.
Rain associated with low-pressure systems holds true in much of the Northern Hemisphere. 40 So in tropical areas, rain association with highs or lows is less predictable.
A. This movement creates air pressure.
B. So we can predict rain from the clouds.
C. But the air pressure changes little in tropical climates.
D. The higher the air pressure is, the faster the winds blow in and outwards.
E. Humidity in the rising air of a low-pressure system becomes water droplets.
F. This swirling air results in winds around or near the high-and low-pressure boundaries.
G. High-pressure systems have light or no clouds, indicating fair weather without rain.
