A
The first day Emma came to our school I felt sorry for her because almost every student was staring,pointing and whispering about her.She was extremely small,very thin and,worst of all,she was a l2-year-old girl with no hair.
Emma ended up in my homeroom.At lunch,Emma sat at a table alone.I said,“Hi,my name is Veneta.Do you mind if I sit with you?” Emma didn’t answer,but nodded,never picking her head up or raising her eyes to see me.By the end of the twenty minutes that we sat together,she was actually looking me right in the eye,but there was still no expression on her face.I felt terrible for the girl because I had been unable to get her to talk or even smile.
It was not until about three days later when l was at my locker getting things ready for class that Emma finally said hi to me.“I just wanted to thank you for talking to me the other day.”She said,“I appreciate you trying to be nice to me.”
Emma had cancer and was not given a good chance of beating her disease.For five months,Emma and I were the best friends.We were together at school every day and every night,studying and hanging out.We talked,laughed,joked about boys and dreamed about our futures.I wanted to be her friend forever but I knew it was not to be the case.
After that,Emma became very sick.One Sunday I was at home when the phone rang.My mom answered it.I could hear her saying something and then she hung up.She walked into my room,her eyes red and tears streaming down her face.I knew instantly what had happened.
Three days later,Emma passed away at home and at a very young age.I felt numb, not believing Emma had left me.Over the next couple of weeks,I quickly learned the hardest lesson I have ever had to learn in life.Not only did I have to learn to deal with death,mentally and emotionally,but I had to learn to grieve.

B
Haiti is among poor countries being troubled by plastic waste,serious poverty and high unemployment.What if you could help create jobs for people in poverty and meanwhile solve an environmental problem there? Thread,a young company,is working in a creative way by hiring people there to collect that plastic waste,which,after being properly treated,is made into fabrics for use in sportswear,boots and many other goods.
Ian Rosenberger,the founder of Thread,used to travel much in Central America,and the Caribbean.Soon after the horrific 2010 earthquake in Haiti,Rosenberger volunteered to help with the disaster relief and was shocked by the piles of plastic trash throughout Haiti,most of which is in the form of plastic bottles Haitians threw away everywhere.It was then that he realized he had to figure out a way to remove the poverty he witnessed.
After returning to the U.S.,Rosenberger soon found a solution to all that plastic trash in Haiti-turning the waste bottles into fabrics,which can create jobs, help the poor Haitians,and solve the terrible waste problem there-and turned his idea into reality.
People collect plastic bottles from their neighborhood,bring them to a plastic- collection center and receive cash right then,helping them to buy food for their families and meet other expenses.
Once collected,the plastic bottles are made into fabrics in Thread, which requires about 80 percent less energy and about 90 percent less water to produce than the fabrics made directly from oil.
“We’re a social company. Our products are environmentally responsible.” Rosenberger says,“Jobs will end poverty.The vaccine(疫苗)against poverty is a good and respectable job.We are hoping to end the problems we face and bring positive change to the people’s lifestyle there.”
25.The second paragraph of the passage is intended to tell the readers .
A.why Rosenberger decided to establish Thread
B.what problems the Haitians were facing after the earthquake
C.how Rosenberger helped with the disaster relief after the earthquake
D.how the Haitians formed a bad habit of throwing trash everywhere
26.By collecting plastic bottles,the Haitians can .
A.help Thread make a lot of money
B.become an employee of Thread company
C.earn some money to support their families
D.do some voluntary work for Rosenberger
27.The fabrics from Thread have an obvious advantage in .
A.style B.strength
C.price D.energy-consumption
28.According to Rosenberger’s words,we can learn that .
A.Thread is an environmentally responsible company
B.products from Thread will end the poverty in Haiti
C.people want to set up a company of their own
D.a(chǎn) good and respectable job must be eco-friendly
