17、are that great. But I can tell you that I like this guy. Thats because he plans to ban tipping in favor of paying his servers an actual living wage.I hate tipping.I hate it because its an obligation disguised as an option. I hate it for the post-dinner math it requires of me. But mostly, I hate tipp
18、ing because I believe I would be in a better place if pay decisions regarding employees were simply left up to their employers, as is the custom in virtually every other industry.Most of you probably think that you hate tipping, too. Research suggests otherwise. You actually love tipping! You like t
19、o feel that you have a voice in how much money your server makes. No matter how the math works out, you persistently view restaurants with voluntary tipping systems as being a better value, which makes it extremely difficult for restaurants and bars to do away with the tipping system.One argument th
20、at you tend to hear a lot from the pro-tipping crowd seems logical enough: the service is better when waiters depend on tips, presumably because they see a benefit to successfully veiling their contempt for you. Well, if this were true, we would all be slipping a few 100-dollar bills to our doctors
21、on the way out their doors, too. But as it turns out, waiters see only a tiny bump in tips when they do an exceptional job compared to a passable one. Waiters, keen observers of humanity that they are, are catching on to this; in one poll, a full 30% said they didnt believe the job they did had any
22、impact on the tips they received.So come on, folks: get on board with ditching the outdated tip system. Pay a little more upfront for your beer or burger. Support Bill Perrys pub, and any other bar or restaurant that doesnt ask you to do drunken math.24. What can we learn about Bill Perry from the p
23、assage?A. He runs a pub that serves excellent beer.B. He intends to get rid of the tipping practice.C. He gives his staff a considerable sum for tips.D. He lives comfortably without getting any tips.25. What is the main reason why the author hates tipping?A. It sets a bad example for other industrie

Why do many people love tipping according to the author?A. They help improve the quality of the restaurants they dine in.B. They believe wa
25、iters deserve such rewards for good service.C. They want to preserve a wonderful tradition of the industry.D. They can have some say in how much their servers earn.27. What does the author argue for in the passage?A. Restaurants should calculate the tips for customers.B. Customers should pay more ti
26、ps to help improve service.C. Waiters deserve better than just relying on tips for a living.D. Waiters should be paid by employers instead of customers.CThe Paris climate agreement finalised in December last year heralded a new era for climate action. For the first time, the worlds nations agreed to
27、 keep global warming well below 2C.This is vital for climate-vulnerable nations. Fewer than 4% of countries are responsible for more than half of the worlds greenhouse gas emissions. In a study published in Nature Scientific Reports, we reveal just how deep this injustice runs.Developed nations such
28、 as Australia, the United States, Canada, and European countries are essentially climate “free-riders”: causing the majority of the problems through high greenhouse gas emissions, while incurring few of the costs such as climate changes impact on food and water. In other words, a few countries are b
29、enefiting enormously from the consumption of fossil fuels, while at the same time contributing disproportionately to the global burden of climate change.On the flip side, there are many “forced riders”, who are suffering from the climate change impacts despite having scarcely contributed to the prob
30、lem. Many of the worlds most climate vulnerable countries, the majority of which are African or small island states, produce a very small quantity of emissions. This is much like a non-smoker getting cancer from second-hand smoke, while the heavy smoker is fortunate enough to smoke in good health.Th
31、e Paris agreement has been widely welcomed as a positive step forward in addressing climate change for all, although the details on addressing “climate justice” can be best described as sketchy.The goal of keeping global temperature rise “well below” 2C is praiseworthy but the emissions-reduction pl
32、edges submitted by countries leading up to the Paris talks arc very unlikely to deliver on this.More than $ 100 billion in funding has been put on the table for supporting developing nations to reduce emissions. However, the agreement specifies that there is no formal distinction between developed a
33、nd developing nations in their responsibility to cut emissions, effectively ignoring historical emissions. There is also very little detail on who will provide the funds or, importantly, who is responsible for their provision. Securing these funds, and establishing who is responsible for raising the
34、m will also be vital for the future of climate-vulnerable countries.The most climate-vulnerable countries in the world have contributed very little to creating the global disease from which they now suffer the most. There must urgently be a meaningful mobilisation of the policies outlined in the agr
35、eement if we are to achieve national emissions reductions while helping the most vulnerable countries adapt to climate change.And it is clearly up to the current generation of leaders from high-emitting nations to decide whether they want to be remembered as climate change tyrants or pioneers.28. Th
36、e author is critical of the Paris climate agreement because .A. it is unfair to those climate-vulnerable nationsB. it aims to keep temperature rise below 2C onlyC. it is beneficial to only fewer than 4% of countriesD. it burdens developed countries with the sole responsibility29. Why does the author
37、 call some developed countries climate “free-riders”?A. They neednt worry about the food and water they consume.B. They are better able to cope with the global climate change.C. They hardly pay anything for the problems they have caused.D. They are free from the greenhouse affects affecting “forced
38、riders”.30. Why does the author compare the “forced riders” to second-hand smokers?A. They have little responsibility for public health problems.B. They are vulnerable to unhealthy environmental conditions.C. They have to bear consequences they are not responsible for.D. They are unaware of the pote
39、ntial risks they are confronting.31. What urgent action must be taken to realise the Paris climate agreement?A. Encouraging high-emitting nations to take the initiative.B. Calling on all the nations concerned to make joint efforts.C. Pushing the current world leaders to come to a consensus.D. Puttin
40、g in effect the policies in the agreement at once.DTeenagers at risk of depression, anxiety and suicide often wear their troubles like a neon (霓虹灯) sign. Their risky behaviors-drinking too much alcohol, using illegal drugs, smoking cigarettes and skipping school-can alert parents and teachers that s
41、erious problems arc brewing.But a new study finds that theres another group of adolescents who are in nearly as much danger of experiencing the same psychiatric symptoms: teens who use tons of media, dont get enough sleep and have a sedentary (不爱活动的) lifestyle.Of course, that may sound like a descri
42、ption of every teenager on the planet. But the study warns that it is teenagers who engage in all three of these practices in the extreme who are truly in jeopardy. Because their behaviors are not usually seen as a red flag, these young people have been called the “invisible risk” group by the study
43、s authors.“In some ways theyre at greater risk of falling through the cracks,” says researcher Vladimir Carli. “While most parents, teachers and clinicians would react to an adolescent using drugs or getting drunk, they may easily overlook teenagers who are engaging in inconspicuous (不显眼的 ) behavior
44、s.”The studys authors surveyed 12,395 students and analyzed nine risk behaviors, including excessive alcohol use, illegal drug use, heavy smoking, high media use and truancy (逃学). Their aim was to determine the relationship between these risk behaviors and mental health issues in teenagers.About 58%
45、 of the students demonstrated none or few of the risk behaviors. Some 13% scored high on all nine of the risk behaviors. And 29%, the “invisible risk” group, scored high on three in particular: They spent five hours a day or more on electronic devices. They slept six hours a night or less. And they
46、neglected “other healthy activities.”The group that scored high on all nine of the risk behaviors was most likely to show symptoms of depression; in all, nearly 15% of this group reported being depressed, compared with just 4% of the low-risk group. But the invisible group wasnt far behind the high-
47、risk set, with more than 13% of them exhibiting depression.The findings caught Carli off guard. “We were very surprised,” he says. “The high-risk group and low-risk group are obvious. But this third group was not only unexpected, it was so distinct and so large-nearly one third of our sample-that it
48、 became a key finding of the study.”Carli says that one of the most significant things about his study is that it provides new early-warning signs for parents, teachers and mental health-care providers. And early identification, support and treatment for mental health issues, he says, are the best w
49、ays to keep them from turning into full-blown disorders.32. What does the author mean by saying “Teenagers at risk of depression, anxiety and suicide often wear their troubles like a neon sign” (Lines 1 - 2, Para. 1)?A. Mental problems can now be found in large numbers of teenagers. B. Teenagers mental problems are getting more and more attention.C. Teenagers mental problems are often too conspicuous not to be observed.D. Depression and anxiety are the most common symptoms of mental problems.33. Why do the researchers refer to teens who use to
