10、 $200 more for her son, Sivert Klefsaas.As a 12-year-old, Sivert wasnt using social media much. The only app he had prior to the bet was Snapchat which he deleted a day after trying it out. So it wasnt too difficult to live without social media, and he didnt think about it much during the six years.
11、 “I wouldnt say there was ever a time when I thought I was about to break,” he said. “As it went on, it was more of a pride thing.”Lorna never had to check for any secretly downloaded apps. “I got to avoid all the unnecessary drama that was on there. I had my friends to keep me up to date on the lat
12、est information or trends.” Sivert said. “It meant I had more time to focus on my grades and sports instead.”On February 19, 2022, Sivert claimed his prize. Now $1,800 richer, Sivert hasnt thought about what to buy, but itll likely be something for his dorm room at the University of St. Paul, which
13、hell attend in the fall.After Siverts success, Lorna turned to Facebook to share the challenge. She said it was some of the best money she ever spent. Other parents seemed interested in trying it out too. “We are certainly not against social media, but its the healthy using of it,” Lorna noted. “Its
14、 about not letting yourself get weighed down by it, or addicted to it, or affected by things that people post.”Now Sivert has a new perspective on staying off social media. “It was awesome. Ah, what about 6 more years? Thank you, Mom.”4Why did Lorna bet her son?ATo challenge.BTo persuade.CTo punish.

17、, and strong winds are blowing atop a hill in southwest Uganda. The wind rattles the giant metal insect trap. A 400-watt bulb is fixed at its center. The light is blinding to human eyes, but its a magnet for local bush crickets.Protein dense and full of iron, zinc, and other essential minerals, bush
18、 crickets, and edible insects in general, have been praised by the UNFAO as a “food source of the future”, key to establishing food security. Thats important in countries such as Uganda, where nearly half of the children and a third of women suffer greatly from poor nutrition due to food shortage.Th
19、e visitors, as theyre called locally, come together to mate and feed in huge swarms after each rainy season in the autumn and pring, when hundreds of people across the country set aside their day jobs to catch then. Salted and fried, the crickets are a delicacy in Uganda, sold for two dollars a bag
20、at open-air markets, taxi parks, and roadsides. Now what once was a small-scale and personal harvest in Uganda has become an increasingly commercialized undertaking, with giant traps taking tons of the insects at a time to meet the growing demand. “You see how you enjoy a movie with popcorn? Me, its
21、 movie with crickets,” says one fan.However, this month, it should be the middle of the autumn harvest in Uganda. Legend has it that the insects come from the moon, and tonight its full. Yet “weve got nothing,” says a cricket catcher and wholesaler. “Where are they?”Decreasing catches suggest the pr
22、oblem is not just overharvesting. Logging to clear land for cash crops has destroyed much bush cricket habitat. And climate change is making the rainy seasons unpredictable, affecting the crickets swarming patterns. With so many problems accumulating, there is still a long way to go. Thus, scientist

25、 a tricky problem to deal with.CBecause its too late to save the bush crickets.DBecause peoples awareness should be raised.The story of the most sustainable pair of jeans is also the story of a family whose members have dedicated their lives to denim innovation. It is the great-great-grandson of the
26、 family business founder who has brought Candiani and whole fashion industry to new heights by creating the first fully biodegradable stretch denim.Alberto Candiani, the current owner of Candiani, created the first fully biodegradable jeans using a plant-based yarn obtained from natural rubber. Once
27、 the innovative denim came to life, a brand new pair of jeans was put to the test by being buried in forest land for six months. At the end of that period, Candianis team discovered the fibers had almost fully broken down. The new technology is called Coreva. “These garments are extremely durable, b
28、ut at the end of their life, you could send them back to us and we recycle them, or you could fertilize your vegetables with them,” Alberto Candiani said.Jeans generate an environmental impact that has become a real global challenge. According to the United Nations Environment Programme, it takes ar
29、ound 2000 gallons of water to make a typical pair of jeans. And during production, around 71 pounds of carbon dioxide are released. Whats more, most jeans are manufactured with stretch denim made with plastic, which can take hundreds of years to degrade.But by creating a circular model in which fabr
30、ics are biodegradable at the end of their lifecycle, tons of garments can be prevented from ending up in landfills. Candiani has not only achieved this by going plastic-free, but the manufacturer has also reduced water use by 75 percent and the use of chemicals by 65 percent. Although Candiani creat
31、es a product that is about double the price of traditional denim due to the higher labor and more manufacturing costs involved, business is booming. Not only has the company tripled its production, but its motto of “the greenest mill in the blue world” is credible.12What is highlighted about Candian
