32、 also increases pollution, wastes energy, and surprisingly wastes water. Only 23% of all plastic in America ends up in a recycling bin, meaning over $1 billion worth of plastic is wasted a year. Just the production of water bottles uses enough oil annually to fuel 1.3 million cars for an entire year
33、, and a single bottle requires three times more water to produce than to fill it.Instead of carrying around a reusable water bottle, which youll either lose or leave at home, causing the purchase of yet another disposable bottle, Skipping Rocks Lab has come up with a different solutionan eatable, bi
34、odegradable (可由生物降解的）water bottle.Ooho is a convenient, clear water pod that can either be drunk or eaten. To drink it, you can either peel off the membrane (薄膜） or tear a hole in the membrane with your teeth to pour the water into your mouth. To eat it, you simply pop the whole pod in your mouth. T
35、he casing may appear fragile (易碎的 )，but Ooho creator Rodrigo Garcia Gonzalez says the bubble casing is like the skin of a fruit. The membrane packaging biodegrades in four to six weeks, like a piece of fruit.One problem the scientists and designers at Skipping Rocks Lab have run into is how to ship
36、large amounts of Ooho bubbles without arriving with a very wet truck. Fortunately, they have successfully packaged units of individual Ooho bubbles together inside a larger and thicker membrane, similar to the ones found around the smaller spheres (球体).The price for an individual bubble or a unit of
37、 bubbles has not been set yet, but it costs about two cents to create a unit, which is significantly cheaper than plastic bottles.Ooho is initially targeting large outdoor events, such as marathons, music festival, and sporting events, where tons of plastic bottles are used, or only partially used,
38、and frequently left behind as litter. It has already appeared at events in London, San Francisco, Boston, at conferences, festivals, and so on.Ooho is catching many peoples attention and has raised over $1 million and gained 1,000 investors in only three days. It is quickly making a rise, so keep an

What can we know about Ooho from the passage?A. It has to be
41、shipped in wet trucks.B. Its membrane is made from the skins of fruits.C. It would be sold at a lower price than disposable plastic bottles.D. It has taken the place of disposable plastic bottles at conferences.CProcrastinators (拖延症患者) ，take note: If youve tried building self-control and youre still
42、 putting things off, maybe you need to try something different. One new approach: Check your mood.Often, procrastinators attempt to avoid the anxiety or worry aroused by a tough task with activities aimed at repairing their mood, such as checking Facebook or taking a nap. But the pattern, which rese
43、archers call “giving in to feel good,” makes procrastinators feel worse later, when they face the consequences of missing a deadline or making a last-minute effort, says Timothy Pychyl (rhymes with Mitchell), an associate professor of psychology at Carleton University.Increasingly, psychologists and
44、 time-management consultants are focusing on a new strategy: helping procrastinators see how attempts at mood repair are destroying their efforts and learn to control their emotions in more productive ways.The new approach is based on several studies in the past two years showing that negative emoti
45、ons can damage attempts at self-control. It fills a gap among established time-management methods, which stress behavioral changes such as adopting a new organizing system or doing exercises to build willpower.Researchers have come up with a playbook of strategies to help procrastinators turn mood r
46、epairto their advantage. Some are tried-and-true classics: Dr. Pychyl advises procrastinators to just getstarted, and make the doorstep for getting started quite low. “Procrastinators are more likely to put the technique to use when they understand how mood repair works,” says Dr. Pychyl, author of
47、a 2013 book，“Solving the Procrastination Puzzle.” He adds ，“A real motive power comes from doing what we intend to dothe things that are important to us.”He also advises procrastinators to practice “time travel”projecting themselves into the future to imagine the good feelings they will have after f
48、inishing a task, or the bad ones they will have if they dont. This cures procrastinators tendency to get so stuck in present anxieties and worries that they fail to think about the future.Another mood-repair strategy, self-forgiveness, is aimed at dismissing the self-blame. University freshmen who f
49、orgave themselves for procrastinating on studying for the first exam in a course procrastinated less on the next exam, according to a recent study led by Michael Wohl, an associate professor of psychology at Carleton.Thomas Flint learned about the technique by reading research on self-control, including
