BMF is an indoor garden system.It can be set up for a family.Additionally，it could serve a larger audience such as a hospital，restaurant or school.The innovative design requires little effort to achieve a reliable weekly supply of fresh greens. Specifically，it's a farm that relies on new technology.By connecting through the Cloud，BMF is remotely monitored.Also，there is a convenient app that provides growing data in real time.Because the system is automated，it significantly reduces the amount of water needed to grow plants.Rather than watering rows of soil，the system provides just the right amount to each plant.After harvest，users simply replace the plants with a new pre­seeded pod (容器) to get the next growth cycle started. Moreover，having a system in the same building where it's eaten means zero emissions (排放) from transporting plants from soil to salad.In addition，there's no need for pesticides and other chemicals that pollute traditional farms and the surrounding environment. BMF employees live out sustainability in their everyday lives.About half of them walk or bike to work.Inside the office，they encourage recycling and waste reduction by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single­use plastic.“We are passionate about reducing waste，carbon and chemicals in our environment，” said a BMF employee. 31．What does the text mainly talk about?

In fact, for most businesses, paper cheques are still a thing. As many as one in three business deals are paid this way and 81% of firms in the US are still using paper cheques to settle some of their bills. Stop the eye­rolling because yeah, we know electronic payments are quicker to make, authorize and complete, and they're easier to track and report. They save paper and are good for the environment. They're more secure, efficient and cost less. They can be made and approved from anywhere. A growing number of businesses not only prefer electronic payments, but are requiring customers to do this. Even a leading tech company recently announced that it would no longer accept paper cheques from its partners. But still ... I'm going to miss the paper cheque. I've always enjoyed the circumstance of the biweekly cheque run and the grandest part is the final approval evidenced by the ultimate proof of authority: the signature. Some of my clients take delight in the opportunity to examine and sign every cheque because there's no better example of power than this. Paper cheques are not only a written form of contracts favored by firms throughout history but also a form of marketing where companies can proudly display their logos. They are clear evidence of stability and reliability. Unfortunately, the writing is on the wall for the paper cheque. And that makes me sad. According to the Small Business Administration, the majority of small business owners are over the age of 50. We grew up with Swanson TV Dinners, hockey without helmets (头盔) and appointed smoking sections in airplanes. We'll retire and younger generations will bury us along with our chequebooks. We know this will unavoidably change. For now, many businesses in the US are still relying on paper cheques to pay. Yes, they're inefficient and costlier. But please be patient. Allow me to have this one little enjoyment while it lasts. 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了尽管电子支付日益普及，纸质支票在美国企业中仍然广泛使用，作者表达了对纸质支票的怀念之情。 1．What phenomenon does the author describe in paragraph 1？(　　) A．Doing business is increasingly difficult. B．Everything is going electronic in the US. C．Paper cheques are still in use in business. D．Most American firms fail to pay the bills. 解析：C　细节理解题。根据第一段中“In fact, for most businesses, paper cheques ... to settle some of their bills.”可知，作者在第一段描述了纸质支票在商业中仍然被使用。 2．What does the leading tech company's decision indicate？(　　) A．The growing trend of shifting to electronic payments. B．The change in forms of cooperation in big companies. C．The potential comeback of paper cheques in the market. D．The popularity of electronic payments among customers. 解析：A　推理判断题。根据第二段中“A growing number ... paper cheques from its partners.”可知，这个领先的科技公司的决定表明了转向电子支付的趋势正在增长。 3．What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3？(　　) A．Defend his preference. B．Introduce a new concept. C．Call for readers' support. D．Promote an old tradition. 解析：A　推理判断题。根据第三段可知，作者表达了对纸质支票的喜爱，还提到一些客户喜欢检查和签署每张支票，因为这象征着权力。此外，作者认为纸质支票不仅是历史上的书面合同形式，也是公司展示品牌的一种方式，由此推知，作者在第三段中打算为他对纸质支票的偏爱辩护。故选A。 4．Why does the author mention Swanson TV Dinners and hockey without helmets？(　　) A．To emphasize the outdated nature of past trends. B．To show his attachment to old­school practices. C．To stress his resistance to technological changes. D．To suggest the reliability of traditional methods. 解析：B　推理判断题。根据第四段中“Unfortunately, the writing is on the wall ... smoking sections in airplanes.”可知，这些物品代表了过去的生活方式，而作者借此表达了他对纸质支票这种传统做法的怀念。因此，作者提到这些物品的目的是“展示他对老式做法的依恋”。 B (2026·山西长治模拟)The world of fashion is constantly evolving, and one trend that has been gaining momentum in recent years is sustainable fashion. Sustainable fashion refers to clothing, footwear, and accessories that are produced in an environmentally and socially responsible manner. It's a response to the industry's long­standing issues, such as excessive resource consumption and immoral labor practices. One key aspect of sustainable fashion is the use of eco­friendly materials. Unlike traditional cotton, which requires large amounts of water—up to 20，000 liters for a single pair of jeans—and relies on harmful pesticides, designers now favor organic cotton (grown without chemicals), linen (a durable, water­efficient crop), and recycled polyester (made from plastic bottles, reducing waste). These materials cut down on pollution and conserve natural resources. Another vital factor is ethical production. This means ensuring workers in factories and workshops receive fair wages that cover basic needs, work in safe environments free from dangers, and are not subjected to forced or child labor. Many sustainable brands published reports on their supply chains, letting consumers trace a garment's journey from raw material to store, and partner with NGO to improve working conditions. Consumers also play a crucial role. As awareness grows about fashion's impact—like the 92 million tons of textile waste generated yearly—more people are choosing brands with sustainable practices. This demand has pushed mainstream companies to change: major stores now offer Eco­lines, use recycled packaging, and commit to carbon­neutral goals, proving that consumer choices can drive industry­wide transformation. 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了可持续时尚的相关内容，涵盖其定义、关键要素以及消费者在其中的重要作用。 5．Why are designers using materials like organic cotton and recycled polyester？(　　) A．They are more fashionable.
