More

11、than 60 million of them are thrown away each day. Many of the plastic bottles end up in landfills or are burned with other waste products.A San Francisco start-up company called Rothys, however, turns this plastic waste into environmentally friendly shoes. Roth Martin is the companys co-founder. He

12、explains how ihey turn plastic into soft material for womens feet. They take the plastic, clean it, and break it down into small pieces. Then they press them through a device that makes soft fibers. Those fibers arc then combined together. This is done by a 3D machine. It is designed to reduce waste

13、 while making the shoes. The knitted stuff and the inner part of the shoe arc then attached to the shoes outer part, called the sole (鞋底).This outer sole is also made from environmentally friendly material: responsibly sourced no-carbon rubber.Rolhys shoes are sold online. They are flat shoes, with

14、either a rounded or pointed toe. They come in different colors and designs. They cost either $ 125 or $ 145 per pair, depending on the design. After American actress Gwyneth Paltrow discovered them last year, the demand for the shoes grew. Martin says there is no shortage of material to fill that de

15、mand. “Were not going to run out of water bottles any time soon. So we have a limitless supply of material, and I think that is a good sign for our future. When the environmentally friendly shoes wear out, customers can return them at no cost to a company that uses the recycled material to make othe

16、r products.For now, the shoes are only available to be shipped in the United States.

19、serts and a high demand for imported fuel. And thats why the Moroccan government is moving ahead with a huge concentrated solar power plant near the desert city of Ouarzazate one of four plants in total which, when completed, will have generating capacity(发电量) of 580MW. Combined with the countrys wi

20、nd and hydro-power (水力发电) efforts, Moroccos ambitious solar push will mean the country will get close to 50% of its electricity from renewable generation as early as 2020.Phase I of the project, the 160MW Noor l, is going to start generating electricity next month and includes a capacity for molten

21、sand energy storage which will allow up to 3 hours of electricity generation after the sun goes down. Phases 2 and 3 will have the capacity for up to eight hours of storage, meaning that solar energy really could be used to power homes around the clock.Besides the scale of such plans, whats impressi

22、ve to me is how quickly the renewable energy can be developed. What other forms of energy could so greatly change a countrys energy composition in just a few short years? Not only should this be an encouraging sign for those of us who favor renewable energy, but it also should give reason for would-

23、be investors in traditional fossil fuel generating industry.If renewable energy costs continue to fall, even existing(现有的) coal and gas plants will find themselves limited by newer, cleaner forms of energy that can be increased rapidly.Interestingly, some analysts suggest this is happening already.

24、In the US, for example, coal power plants are being retired earlier than expected due to a combination of increased competition from gas and renewable energy, as well as tighter regulations of emissions (排放). Also, increasing amounts of solar and wind cause gas and coal plants not to use, significan

25、tly reducing their profits and further giving an edge to the clean energy competition.If this proves to be the case in North Africa too, Moroccos solar ambitions could help transform the energy system well beyond its own borders.1、Whats the main theme of the passage?ASolar energy is fully developed

26、in Morocco.BThere are advantages of developing solar energy.CMorocco is a country with quantities of deserts.DMoroccos efforts to generate renewable electricity.2、What is the advantage of Phase l?AIts energy storage can last up to three hours.BIt has the capacity for as many as eight hours.CIt conti

CSensitive. DDoubtful.4、Coal power plants in the US are being retired earlier than expected because of _.Avarious

28、reasons Bheavy pollutionCfierce competition Dthe governments limitation23（8分） Every year around the world, humans waste an estimated 1.3 billion tons of food.This happens even though many people go hungry.
