The cost of complexity in supply chains
Adam Smith, the father of modern capitalism, famously thought that fair markets required a common moral
framework between buyer and seller. That’s no surprise, considering that his ideas came out of the 18th-century
marketplace, in ___21___ producers and consumers were likely to be neighbours. Advances in technology,
transport and communications have taken us a long way since then, ___22___ (create) complex global supply
chains. These ___23___ (reduce) consumer prices but introduced risks of their own, from labour exploitation andenvironmental degradation.
One of the costs of these supply chains has been the rise of powerful corporate middlemen between home
buyers and sellers. These middlemen, including Big Tech platforms like Amazon, make it possible for us to buy
goods made ___24___ the other side of the world, but this connective power is threatening accountability by
creating so much separation between buyers and sellers ___25___ it’s impossible to match up with the real cost of
convenience and low prices.
There are plenty of examples ___26___ (support) the case, from textiles made with child labour, to the
unequal rents taken by middlemen in financial services or platform technology. In the latter, lack of information
equality makes it difficult for market participants to have a(n) ___27___ (share) understanding of what is being
bought and sold.
The two big questions are how to create system change and ___28___ will bear the cost of it. There are no
simple answers to ___29___ of the questions, though technology offers new possibilities to connect buyers and
sellers. Direct-to-consumer retailers and 3D printing, which ___30___(allow) for shorter supply chains, are both
examples of this, though neither currently provides anywhere near the scale to replace current systems of finance or
manufacturing.
Section B

Planet Plastic
Here’s a shocking statistic. Scientists have calculated the total amount of plastic ever made: 8.3 billion tonnes.
Looked at another way, that’s as heavy as 25,000 Empire State Buildings or one billion elephants. And ___31___,
almost all of it has been made in the last 65 years.
So what’s the problem? Much plastic is in the form of packaging which is used just once and then thrown
away. According to a major new study from the University of California, 9% of this is ___32___, 12% is burned
and 79% goes to landfill. And because most plastic doesn’t biodegrade (生物降解), once it’s in the ground, it
stays there.
It’s a situation that has led the paper’s lead author, ecologist Dr. Roland Geyer, to say that we are “rapidly___33___ towards ‘Planet Plastic’”. He believes that there’s already enough waste out there to cover the whole of
Argentina.
The team behind this report also estimate that eight million tonnes of plastic waste are ___34___ into the sea
every year. This has ___35___ concern that plastic is entering the food chain through fish and other sea life which
consume the smaller pieces.
Of course, the reason why there’s so much plastic around is that it’s an amazingly useful material. We can’t get
enough of it. It’s durable and ___36___, and is used for everything from yoghurt pots to spaceships. But
it’s___37___ this quality that makes it a problem. The only way to destroy plastic is to heat or burn it — although
this has the side effect of harmful emissions.
So what’s the ___38___ other than using less plastic? Oceanographer (海洋学家) Dr. Erik van Sebille from
Utrecht University says we’re facing a flood of plastic waste, and that the ___39___ waste industry needs to “get its
act together”.
Professor Richard Thompson, a marine biologist from Plymouth University, says it’s poor design that is at
fault. He says that if products are currently designed “with recyclability in mind”, they could be recycled around 20
times over.
Dr. Geyer agrees: “The ____40____ of recycling is to keep material in use and in the cycle forever if you can.
But it turns out in our study that actually 90% of that material that did get recycled — which I think we calculated
was 600 million tonnes — only got recycled once.”
Ⅲ. Reading Comprehension
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.
Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

What will you do when you are hungry? Of course, anyone would go and grab something to eat. And then,
what determines the ___41___ of food you take in? You may not be right if your answer is the degree of hunger.
The conventional concept that ____42____ is the key factor is open to challenge. In recent years, a growing body
of research has shown that our appetite and food intake (摄入) are influenced by a large number of factors besides
our ____43____ need for energy. Some of the factors include our eating ____44____ and our perception of the food
in front of us.
Studies have shown that ____45____ eating, for instance, eating while watching TV, or a similar distraction,can increase both hunger and food consumption. Even simple ____46____ clues, like plate size and lighting, have
been shown to affect consumption.
A new study suggested that our short-term ____47____ also may play a role in appetite. Several hours after a
meal, people’s hunger levels were predicted not by how much they’d eaten but rather by how much food they’d
seen in front of them — ____48____ , how much they remembered eating.
This difference suggests that the recall of our previous meal may have a bigger influence on our ___49___
than the actual size of the meal, says Jeffrey M. Brunstrom, a professor of experimental psychology at the
University of Bristol.
These findings agree with the earlier research that suggests our perception of food can sometimes
______50______ our body’s response to the food itself. In a 2011 study, for instance, people who drank the same
380-calorie milkshake on two ______51______ occasions produced different levels of hunger-related hormones
(荷尔蒙), depending on whether the shake’s ______52______ said it contained 620 or 140 calories. Moreover,
the participants reported feeling ______53______ when they thought they’d consumed a higher-calories shake.
What does this mean to our eating habits? Although it hardly seems practical to cheat ourselves into eating
less, the new findings do highlight the benifit of focusing on our food, avoiding TV and multitasking while eating.
The so-called mindful-eating strategies can fight against ______54______ while we are eating. By
______55______ mindful eating techniques, you have the opportunity to change your current eating habits by
becoming more self-aware and in tune to your body’s hunger cues.

Section B
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished

If you search the internet these days, you’ll likely run across some strange-looking, yet cheerful cartoon
characters. These computer-created people have small heads and overdone bodies. They’re created in daring color
with arms and legs that look like giant wet noodles. The happy figures are often moving or doing something
creative.
In 2017 Facebook paid a design team to develop a positive illustration system. One of the designers took that
,
message to heart. She worked to show human connection motion, energy and joy in her drawings. She “wanted to
picture that sense of joy people feel when they’re sharing things together....” The name which was given to the new
art form when it was completed was very appropriate. They named it Alegria, which means joy in Spanish. Before
long Alegria became the go-to style for many technology and media businesses. Corporations such as Google,
Airbnb and YouTube began using Alegria or art with Alegria-type similarities. Today you can find Alegria art
across the internet, in print, on magazine covers and more.
Why did Alegria art become popular so quickly? There are many reasons. As websites depended on
illustrations to fill space, Alegria-type art became increasingly useful. The style is flat, simple and easy to create.
By comparison, more detailed art designs require extra time, skill and money to produce. Businesses also love the
fact that Alegria’s characters celebrate diversity by featuring international cultural events. The illustrations convey
good feelings. Those feelings help people believe they can trust the companies that feature them on their pages.
For some consumers, though, that’s a problem. These people think some companies have simply papered over
their problems with positive images. They’ve failed to address their wrongdoings or make lasting changes. For
many, however, Alegria is a nice visual language that represents happiness. From children hugging to couples
dancing, the images are all about positive energy. All in all, it seems that Alegria is the perfect name of this playful,
fun art style.
56. Which of the following features makes Alegria art style so well received quickly?A. Its cheerful room-filling images.
B. Its trustworthy figures.
C. Its role as cultural representatives.
D. Its eye-catching details.
57. We can learn from the passage that ______.
A. Alegria images may help hide faults
B. positive images convey funny messages
C. illustrations can be audio in some way
D. small-sized cartoon characters enjoy popularity
58. Alegria is thought as the perfect name for the art style because of its ______.
A. system and creativity B. technology and impact
C. popularity and profit D. meaning and function

2023届上海市青浦区高三下学期二模
Do you want to open a shop in London? First: you must be aware that, as of today, running a local independent
shop is anything but simple. Second: you must know which is the most responsive area of the city for what
concerns your specific business. Or as an alternative, you must gain full knowledge of which areas have proved to
be super high-paying basically for any kind of business.
As for London, everybody knows that it is one of the world capitals of trading and commerce. The enormous
number of residents, combined with the continuous inflow of tourists, makes it a highly wanted city for every kind
of commercial activity.
Clearly, everyone — whether he/she is a British citizen or a foreigner investor — who wants to start a business
in London must detect first the most profitable areas. And the four most appealing ones are listed below.
Covent Garden
Opening a commercial space in Covent Garden, or in the West End in general, is always a winning idea. This
area represents the perfect balance between luxury and sustainability. A band of musicians that never cease to
attract both clients and new investors.
Carnaby
For over sixty years, Carnaby Street and the other surrounding secondary roads have represented an authentic
oasis or paradise for those who want to go shopping in London. First, the Swinging London vibe, then the punk
rock revolution: everything — especially in terms of fashion — has been created or passed through there. And evenin the Third Millennium, it remains a landmark for everything related to fashion and new trends.
Mayfair
Are you planning to open a luxury shop? Then Mayfair is undoubtedly your spot. Renting a place here is
highly expensive, but it’s a risk worth taking. If you play your cards wisely, profits will not be long in coming. The
only question is: have you got enough funds to start a business in such an expensive area?
Bond Street
Another luxury area with a gathering of many established high-end brands, maybe the most complicated one.
It is recommended only to those investors who aim to start a real first-rate business. Many small entrepreneurs or
businessmen work a lifetime in order to gain the privilege or the great advantage of upgrading their business in this
area.
59. This article is intended for ______.
A. British citizens who want to buy luxury goods
B. visitors looking for recreational activities in Britain
C. investors interested in starting a business in London
D. foreigners participating in commercial activities in London
60. According to the article, if you are planning to do business in London, which factor is worth considering the
most?
A. London appeals to high-paying investors from all over the world.
B. London is the most promising center for trading, commerce and fashion.
C. London is where many landmark buildings and every kind of business lies.
D. London boasts ongoing floods of tourists and enormous potential consumers.
61. If you get enough funds and fancy opening a luxury shop, which is the last area to choose?
A. Bond Street. B. Carnaby.
C. Mayfair. D. Convent Garden.

Plugs across America
The United States has around 150,000 fuel stations to re till fossil-fuel-burning vehicles. Despite the rapid
growth of all-electric vehicle in America — 400,000 of them were sold in 2021, up from barely la, 000 in 2012 —
the country has only 6,000 fast electric charging stations, the kind that can rapidly charge a battery-powered car.
A glance at America’s charging map reveals a lot of charging deserts. This makes sense, as EVs (electricvehicle) still represent less than 3% of new car sales. Large cities have a growing number of fast charges, but not
nearly enough to accommodate so many EVs. Away from cities, these charters are along interstate highways closely
enough to allow electric cars safe passage. Otherwise, they are nearly nonexistent in rural America. And EV
stations have a problem that gas stations don’t: “Even the fastest Tesla supercharger is still going to take 15 minutes
to put a couple hundred miles on the vehicle,” says Jeremy Michalek, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University.
Michalek says American charging facilities fall far behind what’ needed for the whole country to transition to
electric driving. On the bright side, there is time to catch up, because not all Americans will embrace at once. Most
early adopters were those with access to a charge at home in their garage or parking space. Those owners can wake
up with a full battery and only need to rely on public charters when they leave town on an extended trip. But as the
country gets to higher levels of EV adoption, the current facilities won’t be enough. That is why Michalek says the
US needs to prioritize increasing the number of charges at rest stops along well-traveled highways, especially as
more people use electric cars for summer-time road trips.
“As we act to higher levels of EV adoption, if we don’t have enough chargers for peak demand, the wait times
are going to be unlike what we see with gas stations,” he says.
Charging dead bones will be larger as more Americans consider an EV. Renters who do not have the option to
install a home charges will be hesitant to go fully electric until they can feel confident a public plug will be there
when they need it. And as more households drive only electric vehicles, it will be crucial that people can get to all
the places they want to go.
In the best case, Michalek envisions public-private cooperation to build a national charging network. The US
government has promised to install plugs throughout rural areas, while companies constructing charging stations
across America will have a strong motivation to fill in the country’s biggest cities. After all, companies like
Electrify America, EV go, and Charge Point charge customers of energy they use.
62. It can be learned from the 2nd paragraph that ______.
A. there is a shortage of charging stations in the rural areas of America
B. it takes about 15 minutes for an average charge to charge a battery-powered car
C. more electric vehicles are sold than fossil-fuel burning cars in large cities in America
D. there are enough charges in America considering the limited sales of new electric vehicles
63. Which of the following statements would Michalek most probably agree with ?
A. Companies setting up charging stations are hesitant to go electric.
B. Those who already have a home charge don’t have to find a public plug.C Top priority needs to be given to adding more charging stations across the country.
D. There is enough time to establish a charging network, because not many EVs are uscd.
64. What can be inferred about the renters ?
A. Some renters don’t have the intention to go electric.
B. Some renters might not be authorized to install a home charge.
C. As more renters are unwilling to use public plugs, the charging dead bones are growing.
D. Some renters might not have enough confidence in the public plugs for the safety reasons.
65. Who does Michalek expect to work together to establish the charging network nationwide?
A. The government and some companies.
B. The local government and every household.
C. The charging facility providers and every family.
D. The federal government and the local rural government.

Greening the blue
Is there a “natural” way to enhance the potential of the oceans to lock away climate-warming CO ? Planting
2
more trees on land can help draw down more CO from the atmosphere—the basis of many plans for carbon credits
2
that companies buy to offset their emissions (抵消其排放). _____66_____ Seaweed forests and saltmarshes (盐
碱滩) are common examples.
Some regard the potential for this “blue carbon” as huge, although as yet there is no mechanism for integrating
it into carbon offsetting plans. John Virdin of Duke University in North Carolina says, “_____67_____” He adds,
“You have to go out and measure all the carbon that’s there, you have to show that it’s not going to be lost, you
have to keep monitoring it.” Virdin and others have proposed extending an existing land-based plan called REDD +
(reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation) to the ocean, but that is an idea whose ship has yet
to sail.
_____68_____ In March, the UK government’s climate adviser, the Climate Change Committee, found that
restoring and creating seagrass and saltmarsh ecosystems in the country would only lock away a small amount of
CO, removing “well below” 1 million tonnes a year. Nonetheless, these are efficient carbon stores according to the
2
committee. _____69_____A. Using the oceans as a solution to climate change is hardly a new idea.
B. There is still some doubt about how big the marine offsetting effect might be.
C. It’s really hard to turn blue carbon conservation and restoration into carbon credits that you can sell.
D. Something similar might work in the oceans, by stimulating the growth of marine and coastal ecosystems.
E. And conserving them is important given how much fishing and other activities have degraded them.
F. The big objection to all these plans is the possibility of negative environmental side effects.
Ⅳ. Summary Writing
70.Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no
more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
2023届上海市浦东新区高三下学期二模
A plan to restore green spaces
The UK government has revealed a plan to protect and restore England’s wild life. It focuses on at-risk species
by making canals, rivers and streams cleaner and expanding green spaces.
The new Environmental Improvement Plan sets goals to create or restore more than 5,000 square kilometres of
wildlife habitats across England and restore 400 miles of rivers. It will create or expand 25 national nature reserves.
New woodland will also be planted alongside rivers. At the moment, access to green spaces is not equal across the
UK. Around 4% of people live more than 10 minutes away from their nearest park. The Environmental
Improvement Plan aims to make sure households in England are within a 15-minute walk to a green space.
As well as helping more people to act close to nature, the plan should increase England’s biodiversity. A
species Survival Fund will be set up to help some of England’s most endangered animals, such as red squirrels (松
鼠) and watch rats. The Government has set targets to boost these species by 2030. There are also targets to reduce
food waste, glass, metal, paper and plastic by 2028, and to improve the quality of water in rivers.
New rules mean that the Government will have to consider the environmental effects of any policy it puts
forward. These goals are part of a 25- year plan that was launched in 2018. The aim of the plan is to improve the
environment “within a generation ” which is roughly 25 years.
Although lots of people have welcomed the plan, not everyone is impressed. Pail de Zylva, from the charity
Friends of the Earth, said it wasn’t clear enough how the goals would be met and that many of them were like
promises the Government had already made but not yet delivered.
