2．Humans are very social creatures.In addition to verbal （语言的） communication，we also use our bodies to help us better express our thoughts and feelings.This non-verbal communication is known as body language.
Body language includes things like facial expressions，eye contact and posture（姿势 ）.It actually developed as a form of communication before humans could speak or write.We can tell a lot about what a person is thinking or feeling just by looking at them.
In fact，body language is so common that you may not even realize that you are communicating many messages to others every day without even using words.For example，you might move your head from side to side to express the word "no" instead of actually saying the wjye.aid.Or，you might give a "thumbs （拇指） up" to show that you like or agree with something.
But now that we are spending more time online，we may not have as many in-person interactions as before.Because of this，our means of non-verbal communication has changed，but is still an important way to express our thoughts.
Our "digital body language" is becoming increasingly important as we change how we communicate.Instead of using voice messages，we can video chat with our friends to show them our smiling face.Another way to express our emotions digitally is through emojis （表情符号）.When we are communicating online，we are only revealing the content and leaving out tones and facial expressions.That's when emojis can help in communication.
Whether using video chat to show our expression or sending an emoji，don't forget the importance of digital body language and non-verbal communication.
（1）What does the author mean by saying "Humans are very social creatures"？
A．Humans like living in groups.
B．Humans need to communicate.
C．Humans depend on each other.
D．Humans differ from other beings.
（2）Why are the two examples mentioned in Paragraph 3？
A．To explain how to express no.
B．To prove how much one likes something.
C．To demonstrate how to communicate messages.
D．To show how much we underestimate body language.
（3）What makes digital body language more and more important？
A．The way of communication.
B．The voice messages we use.
C．The time we spend online.
D．The invention of emojis.
（4）How can emojis help in communication？
A．By revealing the content.
B．By helping us video chat.
C．By expressing our emotions.
D．By leaving out facial expressions.组卷：7引用：5难度：0.5 -
3．Margot doesn't have a garbage can.It doesn't need one because Margot simply doesn't cause anything to get thrown away.The restaurant doesn't allow any type of single use plastic.Margot，which opened last year，is one of the small but growing restaurants around the world aiming to avoid not only food leftovers，but also any garbage.
"Food waste has been increasing as an issue for restaurants over the last 10 years，" says Calvin Brown.He runs the Sustainable Restaurant Association.Based in the United Kingdom，the organization helps food business become more environmentally responsible.He says that food waste contributes to releasing the greenhouse gas，so there is strong motivation to reduce waste and help the environment.
In the USA，food waste and packing account for nearly half of the material sent to landfills.Restaurants from McDonald's to Starbucks are addressing this issue with "no straw Mondays" and limits on single-serving plastic，but a handful of restaurateurs are trying to get rid of rubbish entirely.There's also economic case to be made for waste reduction.One study shows that restaurants save seven dollars for every dollar invested in anti- waste methods.
Avoiding food waste is the first and perhaps most obvious challenge for sustainable restaurants.Doug McMaster，chef at Silo in London，only serves a set menu.This removes the worry that one particular item won't sell well，and will spoil in the refrigerator.Compost （堆肥） is a necessity as well.Nolla （meaning "zero" in Finnish） in Helsinki，Finland is giving compost to its suppliers as well as its diners.Nolla also has food- tracking software more commonly used among corporate food service companies to keep track of what sells and what rots.
Sometimes restaurants call themselves environmentally friendly，but they might just be using the label.Calvin offers some pointers on what to look for to make sure a restaurant is truly committed to sustainability.
（1）What does Margot feature？
A．Its large size.
B．Its opening hours.
C．Its zero-waste goal.
D．Its plastic garbage cans.
（2）What is paragraph 3 mainly about？
A．Ways of packaging food.
B．The issue of investing in services.
C．The importance of environmental protection.
D．Efforts of some restaurants to reduce rubbish.
（3）Which of the following does Nolla try to do？
A．Only serve a set menu.
B．Hardly use refrigerators.
C．Supply compost to its customers.
D．Keep track of diners' preferences.
（4）What does Calvin think restaurants should do？
A．Expand food business.
B．Use eco-friendly labels.
C．Save money on dealing with kitchen garbage.
D．Contribute to sustainable development of the food industry.组卷：3引用：7难度：0.5
