22、Dessi Sieburth's love of birds started about six years ago. Now, he has his own group called Protecting Our Birds.Recently,Dessi,14 years old, chatted with TFK about his work and goals for the future.
TFK:
What is Protecting Our Birds?
DESSI：
Birds are citizens of the world, so they need protection. I basically try to do conservation work to help birds get protected throughout the world. I recently wrote an article about a bird called the bartailed godwit(斑尾）.I interviewed a biologist named Nils Warnock, who had studied the bartailed godwit. He expressed the concern about the threat that the bartailed godwit is facing. I wrote an article about his answers to the questions, which is published on the American Birding Association Website.
TFK:
What impelled you to start this project?
DESSI:
When I was eight years old, our class had to do a woodworking project, so I chose a bird feeder(喂食盒). I didn't like birds at the time. I made the feeder, filled it up with seed, put it in my backyard and then the birds started coming. I got really interested in birds as more came. I later got involved in my local Audubon Society, which is devoted to conserving and restoring natural ecosystems. It really got me into birds and I realized bird populations were declining, and many are becoming endangered quite rapidly. I wanted to help them, so I started the project.
TFK:
What are some future projects you plan to work on?
DESSI：
I live in L.A., where there are a lot of parrots. Most of the parrots' native range is in Mexico, but they’re really declining there because of habitat loss. I want to study the parrots and help them in their native range in Mexico, so they can start increasing again.
TFK:
How can people learn more about Protecting Our Birds and the work you're doing?
DESSI：
I have a website. It's my free website about protecting our birds. There people can learn about what I do and how to help birds.
【1】What's Nils Warnock's attitude to the bartailed godwit?
A. Worried. B. Changing.

【2】When did Dessi start his project “Protecting Our Birds”?
A. After he prepared a feeder for birds.
B. After he interviewed Nils Warnock.

C. Set up a website to teach how to help birds.
D. Recreate his own conservation organization.
23、Eradajere Oleita thinks she may have a partial solution to two of our country’s persistent problems: garbage and poverty. It’s called the Chip Bag Project. The 26-year-old student and environmentalist from Detroit is asking a favor of local snack lovers: Rather than toss your empty chip bags into the trash, donate them so she can turn them into sleeping bags for the homeless.
Chip eaters drop off their empty bags from Doritos, Lay’s, and other favorites at two locations in Detroit: a print shop and a clothing store, where Oleita and her volunteer helpers collect them. After they sanitize the chip bags in soapy hot water, they slice them open, lay them flat, and iron them together. They use padding and liners from old coats to line the insides.
It takes about four hours to sew a sleeping bag, and each takes around 150 to 300 chip bags, depending on whether they’re single-serve or family size. The result is a sleeping bag that is “waterproof, lightweight, and easy to carry around,” Oleita told the Detroit News. Since its start in 2020, the Chip Bag Project has collected more than 800,000 chip bags and, as of last December, created 110 sleeping bags.
Sure, some people believe it would be simpler to help the homeless by raising money to buy new sleeping bags. But that’s only half the goal for Oleita — whose family moved to the United States from Nigeria a decade ago with the hope of attaining a better life — and her fellow volunteers. “We are dedicated to making an impact not only socially, but environmentally,” she says.
And, of course, there’s the symbolism of recycling bags that would otherwise land in the trash and using them to help the homeless. It’s a powerful reminder that environmental injustice and poverty often go hand in hand. As Oleita told hourdetroit.com, “I think it’s time to show connections between all of these issues.”
【1】What’s Oleita’s solution to the problem of garbage and poverty?
A．Talking people out of eating chips.
B．Conducting garbage classification.
C．Buying sleeping bags for the homeless.
D．Recycling chip bags to make sleeping bags.
【2】Which word below can be used to replace the underlined word “sanitize” in Para.2?
A．Clean.
B．Displace.
C．Classify.
D．Analyze.
【3】Which statement best describes the sleeping bags made by the Chip Bag Project?
A．Costly and time-consuming.
B．Complex and fireproof.
C．Functional and light.
D．Fancy and environmentally friendly.
【4】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A．Environmental protection comes first.
B．Poverty results in environmental issues.
C．Garbage and poverty could be dealt with together.
D．The homeless should help each other hand in hand.
24、 When a computer works on a group of programs, it can get very hot. Cooling the computer can cost a lot. So some scientists wonder what would happen if the heat from the computer could be used.
Large Internet companies such as Google and Microsoft have thousands of computers. As these computers deal with information, they produce lots of heat, so they need huge cooling systems. These systems send the heat into the air.
A computer in Holland thinks paying to make the computer work and then paying again to cool them are a waste of energy. So the company developed a special device — the e-Radiator.
Boaz Leupe, head of the company, says that e-Radiator works as a heating system and saves money. He explains that the energy is used twice — once to heat the home and once to cool the computer and that the users don’t have to pay to cool their computers.
Five homeowners in Holland are testing the heating system in their homes.
“We pay for the computer using. so, in that way, homeowners get heating for free,” Boaz says. Jan Visser is one of the homeowners. “If you use the computer more, the e-Radiator produces more heat,” he says, “It cannot provide enough heat if you don’t use your computer often.” But he is ready to try it, It’s a great help for his family.
The company says e-Radiators produce heat temperatures of up to 55℃. It says the system could save its users about $440 a year.
【1】Before the e-Radiator appears, usually the heat of a computer ________.
A.is sent into the air B.helps the five homeowners
C.is used twice D.makes the computer work better
