18、for every photoalbum of a beautiful beach,there were 10 photos of trash（垃圾）It was hard to ignore theplastic pollution issue,especially on such primitive and remote beaches.So,we began to sharephotos of the trash we saw and how much we could pick up on our daily dog walks.The more we looked into plas

25、 psychologist will tell you,bottled emotions lead to silent discontent thatcan boil over into frustration and anger.At the University of Florida,emotional outbursts occurabout once a week,the universitys director of housing and residence education says.“It used tobe:Lets sit down and talk about it.”
26、he says.“Over the past five years,roommate conflictshave increased.The students dont have the person-to-person discussions and they dont knowhow to handle them.”The problem is most dramatic among freshmen;housing professionals saythey see improvement as students move toward graduation,but some never

34、ng to walk,fly or swim to anew place.Wildlife such as whales and geese learn migration paths by following their parents.Others,including small songbirds,gain the distance and direction of their migration within theirgenetic code.And some animals use a combination of genetics and culture to guide the
35、irmigration.Another group of migrators does not quite fit either model,and researchers have onlyrecently started to figure out how they find their way.Take the Corys shearwater,an oceangoingsea bird that migrates over the Atlantic every year.The young do not migrate with their parents,so culture can
36、not explain their journeys.And the exact paths vary wildly from individual toindividual,making genetics equally unlikely.Corys shearwaters are long-lived,rarely producing young successfully before age nine.This leaves an opening for learning and practice to develop their migration patterns.Researche
37、rscall this the“exploration-refinement”,and until now it has been hypothetical(假设的)becauseof difficulties in tracking migratory animalsmovements.But a team of researchers has done that by attaching small geolocators to more than 150 ofthe birds aged four to nine.They found that younger birds travele
38、d longer distances,for longerperiods,and had more diverse paths than older birds.“We finally have evidence of theexploration-refinement for migratory birds,”says Letizia Campioni,who led the study.Younger Corys shearwaters are able to fly just as fast as the adults but they do not,suggestingthat the
39、 young do more exploring,which gradually fades as they mature and settle into apreferred course.7Although it may seem less efficient than other strategies,“exploration refinement could bebeneficial to birds and other organisms in a rapidly changing world due to unpredictableman-made changes,”says Ba
40、rbara Frei.“It might be safer to repeat a behavior that was recentlysuccessful than to rely on patterns that were perfected long ago but might no longer be safe.”32What is the first paragraph mainly about?AIt describes animalshabitats.BIt talks about migration models.CIt compares different species.D
41、It introduces a tracking technology.33What does the underlined word“this”in paragraph 3 refer to?AThe opening for learning and practice.BThe unique living habit of Corys shearwaters.CThe way Corys shearwaters form their migration patterns.DThe process scientists track Corys shearwatersmovements.34Wh

44、m their jobs and careers:success andhappiness.They want to do relatively well financially,receive fair recognition for theiraccomplishments,enjoy their work as much as one can,and become happier as a person as aresult.So many people,especially ambitious,hard-working people,simplify them in a logical
45、way:They first seek success and then assume that success will lead to happiness._36_.Chasing success has costs that can end up lowering happiness.This is not to say that you have to choose between success and happiness._37_.Butyou have to reverse(颠倒)the order of operations:Instead of trying first to
46、 get success andhoping it leads to happiness,start by working on your happiness,which will enhance yoursuccess.Whether you are an employee or employer,it is a better investment to increase happiness at8work and in life,rather than simply trying to increase measures of success._38_.No matter how much
47、 you enjoy your work,overwork will become anobstruction(阻碍)to well-being.Once work quantity is under control,happiness at work requires a sense of meaning andpurpose._39_.Earned success implies a sense of accomplishment and recognition for ajob well done,while service to others requires knowledge of
