New Yorkers looking to reduce, reuse, and save money this year are invited to participate in Stop ‘N’ Swap, a
free community event organized by local nonprofit GrowNYC.
The average NYC household throws away about 2,000 pounds of waste a year. By reusing through events like
Stop ‘N’ Swap, NYC residents can take part in saving over 40 million pounds of material from landfill every year.
Take a break from shopping, support a cleaner future, and join the ever-growing reuse community!
WHAT: Free Stop ‘N’ Swap Community Reuse Event
WHEN: February 19th，12pm-3pm
WHERE: Bronx Works Classic Community Center-286 East 156th Street, Bronx, NY 10451
The public is invited to bring clean and reusable items. No one is required to bring something to take
something-you can simply show up with a bag and see what’s free for the taking. Books, toys, clothing, and
electronics are just some of the offerings. Furniture and other large items are not accepted at the swap. Anything
leftover at the end of the day is donated or recycled.
Stop ‘N’ Swaps have developed a regular following among environmentally conscious New Yorkers. After
almost two years without swaps, GrowNYC has set a goal of hosting one swap in each of the city’s 59 community
districts each year, providing opportunities to make NYC truly livable-a place where every person can enjoy a
healthier life.

At first look, the playground at the Children’s Guild-Transformation Academy in Baltimore, Maryland, looks
like any other. It has swings, slides, and places for children to climb and crawl. But the playground is not just a
place for fun. It is also a place where students can learn, grow and gain independence. Everything — from the kind
of surface it sits on, to the color of its sitting areas, to the placement of the surrounding fence — is specifically
designed for kids with autism (自闭症).
Mark Rapaport is the managing director of autism services at the Transformation Academy. He said the school
accepts students aged 5 to 21 with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and are lower-functioning.
Rapaport said the goal of Transformation Academy is to make the students as independent as possible in an
effort to help them prepare for adult life. The school aims to provide help with developing communication and
social skills, as well as practical abilities like cleaning or cooking.
The playground designed by Maryland company Sparks@Play, using structures manufactured by Landscape
Structures, Inc. took a month to develop, said Dan Hack. He works for Sparks@Play and helped lead the
playground’s design. Hack said he and others spent weeks getting to know the students and understanding their
needs before any building was started. The design process involved physical therapists, occupational therapists, and
other specialists. The huge $500,000 project was funded with support from the state of Maryland and the nonprofit
Orokawa Foundation.
Parts of the playground that seem small are very important for children with autism and other disabilities. The
surrounding fence extends into a wooded area to make it seem more open. And the ground under the play areas is
made of soft, but solid materials to support students using wheelchairs or crutches. The benches on the outside of
the playground look simple from far away, but are “one of our most inclusive sensory” elements, Hack said. They
have many different colors that bring about feelings of calm and curiosity. They are also made with smooth material
that can be felt and moved. The academy’s Rapaport said if a child starts to feel uneasy, they can sit down and feel
the bench, which can help them relax.
4. Why is the playground in Baltimore designed with special materials?
A. To make it superior to other playgrounds. B. To better serve children with autism.
C. To improve the quality of the playground. D. To make it easier for kids to climb and crawl.
5. What can we learn from the playground project?
A. It took a month to complete the project. B. The design process is simple and easy.
C. The result of the project is uncertain. D. It’s a money-consuming project.
6. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The scale and the structure of the playground.
B. Ways for kids to free from the stress and relax themselves.
C
.
The underlying logic and reasonable factors of the playground.
D. The advantages of the playground for autism and disabled kids.
7. Which best describes the playground in Baltimore?
A. Advanced. B. Environmental-friendly. C. Functional. D. Convenient.
C
New findings suggest that when it-comes to learning, the snake may be quite a bit like humans. David
Holtzman, a scientist at the University of Rochester, has found that snakes have a much greater capacity for
learning than earlier studies had indicated.
Holtzman’s study challenged 24 snakes to escape from a black plastic container the size of a child’s pool.
Cards mounted on the container’s walls and tape on its floor provided the snakes with visual and touchable signals
to find their goal: holes in the container’s bottom that offer a dark, comfortable spot to hide.
Simply falling into a hole isn’t the only proof that the snakes are learning something, though. “Speed to find
that goal is one of the measures which shows they’re learning,” Holtzman says. “On average, they take over 700
