This athletics event is held in Llanwrtyd Wells in Wales．At the event, men and women race (赛跑) a horse for 35 kilometers．People often think that the horse will win easily, but the race is planned so that the horse and runners finish at nearly the same time．How’s that done?

We all know there is a problem with plastic pollution．Five trillion（万亿）plastic bags are used every year．One million plastic drinking bottles are bought every minute．
What if we could use plastic waste to build roads? This is exactly what a company has done．McCartney’s company built the world’s first plastic road in Elgin town, Scotland．The plastic waste was made into grains（颗粒）and then mixed with biturnen（沥青）．The road looks just like any other road．But it has improved strength and isn’t easy to break．
“Our way can not only help solve the problem of plastic waste but also produce roads that deal better with changes in the weather, reducing potholes（路面的坑洼）, ” McCartney said．
The idea came from a trip to India．“I saw people there would put plastic waste into potholes and burn it to repair roads,” said McCartney．
After lots of testing, McCartney found the perfect method．And now his company has built many plastic roads around the world．A one-kilometer stretch of road uses about 684, 000 plastic bottles or 1.8 million plastic bags．The road itself can be recycled in the end．The materials can be reused to build new roads．
“We are just a small part of ending the plastic problems, but it’s nice to be part of it,” McCartney said．“I just don’t want my kids to live in a world where there are more plastics than fish in the sea.”
46．What does the numbers in Paragraph 1 show?
A．People cannot live without plastics.
B．Plastics are better than other materials.
C．The plastic pollution is a serious problem.
D．Plastics help companies make lots of money.
47．Which of the following is TRUE about the plastic roads?
A．It is easy to break a plastic road.
B．The first plastic road was built in India.
C．Plastic roads look different from other roads.
D．People can recycle plastic roads to build new ones.
48．How many plastic bottles are needed to build a one-kilometer stretch of plastic road?
A．684 thousand. B．1 million. C．1.8 million. D．5 trillion.
49．What does McCartney mean by saying the last sentence?
A．He will keep more fish in the sea.
B．He enjoys fishing with his children.
C．He can end plastic problems alone.
D．He wants to help build a green world.
50．What is the best title for the article?
A．Ways to reuse B．Trip to India C．Road to recycling D．Journey to the sea
C
The two boys, Tom and Huck, were very frightened because they worried about being found by Injun Joe and his friend．Through the hole in the floor, the two boys upstairs saw the men eat and talk．Then the men were tired and fell asleep．Tom and Huck lay there for a very long time.
Finally, the two men woke up and lifted up a stone in the ground and took out some money they had stolen．Then Injun Joe lifted up another stone and found a box.

“What will we do with it?”

Are you an “I” person or an “E” person? We hear this question a lot these days． 56 So what is the MBTI test? It’s a personality (人格) test that helps us better understand our personality preferences (偏好)．It was developed in the 1940s．When you take the MBTI test, you are provided with several sets of questions． 57 For each question, you need to choose the answer that best matched you．Then you’ll know what your personality type is.
58 First, people want to understand themselves．It’s hard to say human personality, but this test provides a simple way for people to learn about themselves．Next, taking the MBTI test is both relaxing and enjoyable, because its questions are really interesting． 59 The MBTI test offers a way to connect with others deeply．Last but not least, though there are many kinds of personality tests on the market, the MBTI test is the most believable．
The MBTI test may show something we don’t know about ourselves and can be a fun way to help us make new friends．But knowing someone’s MBTI results doesn’t mean we really know that person． 60
