The gift that never stops giving

People are going for gifts that are reused time and time again, （while also saving money）,

gifts that have recyclable packaging, or the recyclable elements included within them. One of the

best options is to go for a green hamper（篮子）.

Gift hampers can be reused

The fact that green items are frequently reusable is one of their main advantages. With a green

hamper, you can reuse everything that was inside of it, including the container. Many green

hampers are available in wicker（柳条）baskets， allowing you to keep the present for a long

time and reuse it for other purposes.

Gift hampers are eco-friendly

A lot of people are worried about the environment and reducing CO2 emissions（排放）. This

is why green hampers are becoming more popular. Typically, businesses that sell green baskets will

guarantee that the items inside them were manufactured by hand or in facilities with minimum CO2

emissions. However, the wicker baskets are more breakable items.

How to reuse wicker baskets

Why not keep a selection of potted plants in your wicker basket？This will look great in your

dining room. With a wicker basket, for instance, place individual toiletries, towels, and blankets on

the hamper for presentation in your guests' rooms. You can give your visitors a warm, “hotel

inspired” feeling.

Giving someone an awesome gift hamper that is also eco-friendly conveys a unique message to

the recipient because there are so many options for gift baskets, you can fill them as you choose.

This is why green hampers in particular are dominating the market.

1. What is probably the concern of people who choose hampers?

A. Comfort. B. Expense. C. Security. D. Beauty.

2. Which can best describe the advantages of green hampers?

A. Reusable and tough. B. Popular and costly.

C. Multipurpose and recyclable. D. Ever-lasting and eco-friendly.

3. What is the author's attitude to the popularization of green hampers?

A. Favorable. B. Intolerant. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.

There have been numerous attempts to create an all-plastic bike. But most have never passed

through the prototype stage （原始阶段） . Igus ，a Germany-based manufacturer of high-

performance plastics, and Dutch start-up MTRL aim to change that with the igus: bike—the world's

first urban bike crafted almost entirely from recycled plastic.

Igus CEO Frank Blasé first got the idea while vacationing on a Florida beach in 2009. A

conversation with some employees from a rental company made him aware of the challenges of

maintaining beach bicycles. The continuous exposure to sand, wind and salt water caused the bikes

to rust rapidly. Many had to be replaced in only three months.

The igus: bike, unveiled at a German trade show, is maintainable and rust-free. It can be left

outdoors in all weathers and does not require lubricant oil （润滑油） to reduce friction between

parts. Since it does not attract sand, dust or dirt, the bike can be cleaned with a garden hose （水

管）in seconds.

"As all components are made of plastic, no part of the bike rusts, even the gears —bicycle

gears made of plastic were unthinkable for a long time, "Blasé says.

The igus: bike will also help combat the world's plastic pollution. The company says a single

adult bike gives new life to about 16 kilograms of single-use plastic that would otherwise choke our

landfills or waterways.

Currently, 90 percent of the igus: bike is made using recycled plastic. This includes the

bicycle's frame, bearings, pedals and wheel rims. Igus and MTRL believe future versions will be

made entirely from recycled plastic.

"From ocean plastics to motion plastics — the igus: bike concept has what it takes to become a

high-tech ecological product, "says MTRL co-founder Benjamin Alderse Baas.

The plastic bikes are expected to come onto the market in early 2023. An adult model, made

entirely from recycled plastic, will cost about E1400. A slightly cheaper version made using new

plastic and an electric bike are also in the works. Igus also plans on sharing its technology with

other bicycle manufacturers.

4. What makes Igus CEO Frank Blase seek to create the igus: bike?

A. His holidaying in Florida last year.

B. The conversation between him and some bicyclers.

C. The trouble of keeping beach bicycles in good condition.

D. The prolonged exposure of bikes on the beach.

5. What can we learn about the igus:bike from the text?

A. It will certainly sell well. B. It needs to be more portable.

C. It can be used everywhere and freely. D. It is rust less and cleans easily.

6. What is the text mainly about？

A. A bike made from recycled plastics. B. How to make rust-free bikes.

C. An excellent bicycle manufacturer. D. How to maintain beach bikes.

7. What can be inferred about the future plastic bikes?

A. They will be cheaper and lighter.

B. They will be more high-tech ecological.

C. They will be crafted from only recycled plastics.

D. They will be used widely all over the world.

Many people think work meetings are a waste of time, and that might be because most

meetings keep employees from working well: One survey of 76 companies found that productivity

was 71 percent higher when meetings were reduced by 40 percent. Unnecessary meetings waste $37

billion in salary hours a year in the U. S. alone,

Many meetings occur without a specific reason. Another motive for meetings is what some

scholars call the Mere Urgency effect, in which we engage in tasks—such as a meeting where each

person recites what they're working on, whether others need that information or not—to help us feel

like we are accomplishing something actual.

But the real problem with meetings is not lack of productivity—it's unhappiness. When

meetings are a waste of time, job satisfaction declines. And when job satisfaction declines,

happiness in general falls. Thus, for a large population, eliminating meetings—or at least

minimizing them—is one of the most straightforward ways to increase well-being.

Nobody likes excessive and unproductive meetings. First, they generally increase fatigue. You

have probably experienced a day of meetings, after which you are exhausted and haven't

accomplished much. Second, people tend to engage in "surface acting" （faking emotions that are

deemed appropriate ） during work meetings. Finally, researchers have found that the strongest
