We all have one shirt in the closet that we don’t want to get rid of, yet keeping around

because we can’t bear to just throw it in the garbage. We don’t wear it anymore. Being a little

out of style, your old T-shirt needs a new home where it can be appreciated. One city in

Toronto has started a project to give it one .

Earlier this year the Toronto suburbs of Markham introduced a new program encouraging

its residents and residents of nearby suburbs to donate their old unwanted clothing. The

program is exceptional because unlike most of those second-hand stores, they are accepting

old clothing that isn’t quite in perfect condition. It is breathing new life into these typically-

trashed items. Contrary to common belief, textiles（纺织品）are not only used for clothing,

and these items are being re-purposed in a variety of interesting ways.

The city has set up many different donation centers around the suburbs and residents are

encouraged to donate any unwanted textiles they happen to have lying around their house. It’s

volunteers’ duty to divide the donations into different sorts. Those items in usable and good

condition are donated to local homeless shelters and other aid centers. Those which are not

are shipped off to be used for industrial purposes. Only when there is no more industrial need

for fabric and textiles will they begin to use their last place — a landfill outside the city.

The program isn’t the city’s only green initiative (倡议). It has already had one of Canada

and the world’s largest solar panels, and it is said that they are steadily working towards a

shift to 100% renewable energy. The city also has subsidized ( 补助 ) farmers’ markets and

over 125 miles of bike paths. As a result, Markham also has a much lower rate of obesity than

other Canadian cities. Now, it’s working towards another goal — 100% recycling of unwanted

textiles.

1. What does the underlined word “one” in paragraph 1 refer to?

3.What does the author want to say in the last paragraph?

A. The city has been the best place to live in Canada.

B. The program is more successful than expected.

C. The citizens have fallen in love with the city.

D. The city is working hard to be a green one.

4. What is the main idea of this text?

B. Old clothes are becoming more useful in Canada.

C. Rubbish has been put into wide use in Canada.

D. Donation centers become popular in Canada.

Want to get your package delivered via robots? Now there’s an app for that. If you live in

Washington D. C. , or Redwood, you may have glimpsed a small, boxy robot rolling along a

local sidewalk, minding its own business, but attracting the attention of many curious

onlookers.

The autonomous machines were part of a pilot program last year by Starship

Technologies focusing on delivering meals from local restaurants in dozens of cities around

the world. This week, the company unveiled plans to broaden its delivery service beyond food

to include package, a move that led it to declare itself “the world’s first robot package delivery

service”. The next time you order food, this cute robot might roll up to deliver it. The package

delivery service is not available to everyone yet.

The wheeled robots have a top speed of 4mph and can detect obstacles from 30 feet away.

“The robot can operate through anything,” Nick Handrick, head of operations for Starship’s

D.C. office, said. “ If you had something in the way — a stick — it’s able to climb sticks.”

To sign up for the service, which costs a little more than $ 10 per month, customers need

to download the company’s app. Customers then create a “Starship Delivery Address”, a

unique address inside a Starship facility, where they can have package sent from places such

as Amazon.com. Once a package is delivered to the Starship address, customers receive a text

notification（通知）that allows them to schedule a home delivery via robot. The robots are

opened by customers via a mobile phone code.

Barriers exist for robotic ground delivery, with many states requiring that humans be in

control of delivery robots. Those regulations haven’t stopped Starship Technologies from

accumulating experience on streets around the globe ahead of the company’s latest launch.

The company says its robots have covered more than 125,000 miles in more than 100 cities in

20 countries.

5. What can we know about the robotic delivery?

A. It is part of a trial project by Starship Technologies.

B. You can use the service free of charge via smart phones.

C. The robots are opened by customers with a text notification.

D. The robotic delivery is available to everyone at present.

6. Which word can replace the underlined word “unveiled” in paragraph 2?

A. Revised B. Released C. Restored D. Reset
