38、to turn used plastic bottles into womens shoes. Every day, millions of Americans drink water and other liquids from plastic bottles. More than 60 million of them are thrown away each day. A San Francisco start-up company called Rothys, however, turns this plastic waste into shoes.Roth Martin is the

39、companys co-founder. He explains how they turn plastic into soft material for feet. They take the plastic, clean it, and break it down into small pieces.

41、ole is also made from a kind of no-carbon rubber.Rothys shoes are sold online.

42、ial,” he says. When the shoes wear out, customers can return them at no cost to a company that uses the recycled materials to make other products.

In a sports magazine.EPeople get angry for all kinds of reasons, from the trivial (瑣碎的) ones to the really serious ones. But, mostly, anger happens for trivial reas

46、ons. Thats why the American Psychological Association has a part of its website which talks about anger management. Interestingly, it reads very much like one of the oldest articles on the subject, On Anger, written by the Stoic philosopher Lucius Annaeus Seneca back in the first century CE.Seneca t

47、hought that anger is a short-time madness. Other bad habits affect (影響) our judgment, while anger affects our minds. Other bad habits come in small attacks and grow unnoticed, but mens minds fall suddenly into anger. Its intensity (強(qiáng)度) is in no way controlled, so it rises to the greatest heights fro

48、m the most trivial beginnings. Then we may make unwise decisions.The perfect modem environment for anger management is the Internet. If you write, read, or comment on a blog, you know what I mean. When someone disagreed about my opinion, I was so angry. But now instead of quarreling with them, I foc

49、us my energy on answering sincere questions from others, doing my best to make them have useful conversations. Through communication, we understand each other better. Then I feel less angry at them.Now, some people say that anger is the right response to certain environment. It can be a motivating (

50、促進(jìn)的) force for action if it is moderate (適度的). But Seneca thinks there is no such thing in the universe. As for motivation, what the Stoic take is that we are moved to action by positive emotions. I agree with him.Marcus, another philosopher thought that if people are doing wrong, what you need to d

51、o instead is “teach them then, and show them without being angry.” That is exactly the useful way.()42. What can be learned from Paragraph 1?A. Ancient people cared little about anger management.B. Americans show the greatest interest in anger management.C. Seneca was the first person to talk about

52、anger management.D. Unimportant things often result in the feeling of anger.()43.

53、ble results()44. Whats the writers opinion about anger management?A. Anger is acceptable if it is moderate.B. Its very easy to control anger.C. Anger is necessary to make people act.D.
