On a recent day, Katie Baldwin took a break from work to talk about moving from a wealthy neighborhood near New York City to an organic farm on Long Island. "Farming for where I grew up was a very unusual career choice, said the 32~year~old American, "but everybody belongs to the land in their own way. None of us should feel separate from it.”
Katie was raised in an upper middle class town outside New York, where most people never thought about working on a farm. Today, Katie grows potatoes, wheat and other crops at Quail Hill, a property in Amagansett, New York.
In the United States, organic farming is a growing industry. Women operate some of the best-known organic farms on Long Island. Women make up a little more than 37 percent of all organic farmers nationwide. That information comes from the U. S. Department of Agriculture
(USDA). Experts predict women's share in farming is likely to continue to grow.
“The new young farmers choose organic farming with their desire to have an influence on society," Katie and several farmers said. She said, "They are choosing it to protect natural resources for future generation, to fight climate change, to feed their community good and healthy food.''

On a Wednesday morning. when most kids of his age are just settling into class. 9-year- old Camden Myers and his mom are settling into the grand opening of his new coffee shop.
“My favorite coffee is Cappuccino," Cam says. This work isn't really a tiring thing for him, but it's a labor of love, as he says "The most fun part is making the coffee, and I can earn what I need for my life."
Cam's Coffee Creations on South Broad Street in Winston-Salem was brewed (酝酿)from heartache. Cam suffered a serious brain injury when he was born. It has impacted his speech and motor skills, but not his passion or drive. "A little over a year ago, we both were in a car crying because we were asked to leave school. The school didn't have resources to support him," says Cam's mom Latasha Barr-Lewis. "Fast forward a year later, we are now a resource for students like him. " Cam says, "I want to help people with special needs because I have special needs.”

Already on opening day, Cam has got his site set on something more. Cam says he wants to have a bigger coffee shop. For his mom, the dream is bigger than an early-morning pick me-up, “We don't want to be a coffee shop. We want to be an experience. We want to be a community
partner,” Barr-Lewis says. She hopes they can expand to somewhere with classroom

"When I look now at the starting of the farm. it seems really audacious,” Katie Baldwin said. "But in that environments in 2008, everybody had lost their jobs and there weren't jobs. So, it didn't feel strange to start something, ” she said. 28. What does Katie think of working at the organic farm?

UK supermarkets are producing more plastic waste despite promises to cut down, new research suggests, as sales of bags for life increase to 1. 5 billion.
Retailers (零售商)were responsible for more than 900,000 tons of plastic waste in 2018, according to a report from the Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA) released Thursday. Seven of the 10 largest supermarket chains reported a higher plastic packaging tonnage in 2019 compared to last year, although exact figures for this year have not been released.
Compared to 2018, this year the number of sold eco-friendly bags for life rose by about 25%, the report stated. Campaigners said the rise showed that the bags are now being used by many as a replacement for single-use carrier bags.
Campaigners recommend that supermarkets increase the price of bags for life to 70 pence ($0. 9). They point to the 90% reduction in bags for life sales in Ireland, where prices are set at 70 cents ( $0. 77). However, in an ideal world bags for life would be removed completely, enforced by a government ban, said campaigners.
“It's shocking to see that despite unprecedented (空前的)awareness of the pollution crisis, the amount of single-use plastic used by the UK's biggest supermarkets has actually increased in the past year,” said Juliet Phillips, EIA ocean campaigner. He added. Our survey shows that
grocery retailers need to tighten up targets to drive real reductions in single use packaging and items. We need to address our throwaway culture at it's root through systems change, not materials change. Substituting one single-use material for another is not the solution.”
The report reveals that plastic use among suppliers is also to blame, and supermarkets have failed to make them reduce plastic packaging. Tesco has led the way in this area, threatening to delist (退市)products for suppliers who fail to cut excessive plastic. Campaigners are urging other supermarkets to do the same.
Plastic waste is a global issue and various countries have taken action to reduce its impact
32. What does the new research in the UK find?
A. What results in more plastic waste.
B. Why customers use more bags for life.
C. How many plastic bags have been used now.
D. How UK supermarkets cut down plastic waste.
33. What do we know about the plastic waste in the UK in 2019?
A. It decreased slightly. B. It became more serious.
C. It got controlled well. D. It was out of control.
34. What's Juliet Phillips's suggestion for the UK's supermarkets?
A. Banning the use of bags for life.
B. Charging more for producing plastic bags.
C. Taking practical steps to reduce plastic waste.
D. Changing the materials to make plastic bags.
35. What did Tesco do to cut down the use of plastic?
A. It required suppliers to cut down plastic packaging.
B. It found out a replacement for single-use carrier bags.
C. It called on consumers to use fewer plastic bags.
D. It forced supermarkets to fight against plastic pollution.

Making Ice Cream
Nothing tastes better in the middle of summer than cool and sweet ice cream. 36 You
can make your own ice cream at your home or campsite with very little time and effort. In fact, making ice cream is so easy, you might soon leave plain vanilla (香精)behind and put into your own specialty flavors.

The coffee-can method is very similar. But it uses a 1-pint coffee can nested inside a 3-pound coffee can. Whichever method you use. you can adjust the recipe, making it richer by adding eggs, or bits of candy or chocolate. A couple of tablespoons of chocolate syrup (糖浆) will give you chocolate ice cream. 40
A. Remove the small bag, open it carefully, and enjoy it.
B. And it's much better if that ice cream is home made.
C. Besides, a cup of fruit juice makes a nice fruit flavor.
D. These are easy ways to make ice cream at your home.
