    Some developed countries in the world have begun to shorten "working hours. Japan, on the other hand, has been in the culture of overwork. The problem is so severe that the country has even created a term for it: karoshi, which means death by overwork from stress-induced illnesses or severe depression. If the system of the four-day workweek is tested in Japan, what will happen?

    A growing number of smaller companies are adopting a four-day workweek. Now the results of a recent trial at Microsoft (MSFT) suggest it could work even for the biggest businesses.

    The company introduced a program in Japan called the Choice Challenge "Work Life ". During the program, Microsoft shut down its offices every Friday in August and gave all employees an extra day off each week.

    The results were promising: while the amount of time spent on work was cut dramatically, productivity – measured by sales per employee – went up by almost 40% compared to the same period of the previous year, the company said in a statement last week.

    In addition to reducing working hours, managers urged the staff to cut down on the time they spent on meetings.

    They suggested that meetings should last no longer than 30 minutes. Employees were also encouraged to cut down on meetings altogether by using an online messaging app (Microsoft's, of course).

    The effects were widespread. More than 90% of Microsoft's 2,280 employees in Japan later said they were impacted by the new measures, according to the company. By shutting down earlier each week, the company was also able to save on other resources, such as electricity.

    (1)、Why is the system of the four-day workweek tested in Japan?
    A、Because overwork has caused serious problems. B、Because the offices must be shut down on Friday. C、Because the staff can get extra days to rest easily. D、Because smaller companies have taken the measure.
    (2)、What's the result of adopting a four-day workweek?
    A、It is a waste of energy. B、The workers earned less money. C、The working efficiency increases greatly. D、Japan's unemployment rate is barely rising.
    (3)、How could the time the staff spent on meetings be reduced?
    A、By cancelling meetings. B、By using emails to respond. C、By cutting down on working hours. D、By using a certain online messaging app.
    (4)、What is the staff's attitude to the new measures?
    A、Supportive. B、Negative. C、Critical. D、Indifferent.

    A new study on the link between chili and dementia ( 痴呆) may bring bad news for spicy food addicts. Researchers have found that eating lots of chili may cause an increased risk of dementia.

    The study, led by Shi Zumin, analyzed 4,582 Chinese adults aged 55 and above between 1991 and 2006 and found evidence of faster cognitive decline in those who consistently ate more than 50 grams of chili a day. "Chili consumption was found to be beneficial to body weight and blood pressure in our previous studies. However, in this study, we found negative effects on cognition among older adults," Shi said in a press release published

    "Chili is one of the most commonly used spices in the world and particularly popular in Asia compared to European countries," Li Ming from the University of Southern Australia said in the press release. "In certain regions of China, such as Sichuan and Hunan, almost one in three adults consumes spicy food every day.

    The researchers said people of normal body weight maybe more sensitive to chili intake and hence their memory and weight suffer a bigger impact. Worldwide, around 50 million people have dementia, and Alzheimer's disease is the most common form that may contribute to 60 percent to 70 percent of the cases, according to the World Health Organization. At present, no treatment can cure dementia or change its progressive course.

    (1)、According to the text, what aspect is chili consumption harmful to?
    A、Body shape. B、Body weight. C、Blood pressure. D、Cognitive abilities.

    Ramen noodles have been a go-to food for students for decades. After all, they only take eight minutes to cook in a dorm hotpot and are easy on the budget. Holly Grounds, a recent project design graduate who used to eat a lot of ramen noodles when she studied, started thinking that the packaging of a product shouldn't take decades or more to be broken down. That was why she decided to make eatable wrappers (包装材料) for ramen noodles, avoiding the need for plastic.

    Grounds wanted to produce a product that the user could watch actually melt in the pot. "While other biobased alternatives to plastic claim to be able to be broken down, in a consumer's eyes, it's not always that simple," she said. "Many of the bio-based films are only broken down at 50 degrees Celsius, so they often end up in the wrong place without the consumer really knowing that they cause damage to the planet.

    Now, instead of plastic packs of seasonings, the dried spices and flavorings (调味品) are part of a flavorless bioplastic film that wraps the noodles and keeps them fresh. The film melts in less than a minute when it comes into boiling water, and the liquid becomes the sauce for the noodles.

    "The sauce is heated until the mixture is thick enough. At this point, I add the spices and flavorings before pouring it into a mold (模子) to set for 24 hours," Grounds said. These noodle parcels are then packaged in waxcoated paper bags.

    With plastics taking hundreds of years to be broken down, eatable packaging and single-use articles are seen as the way to go. Grounds sees opportunities to use her eatable packaging for other ready meals and she wants to contribute to the global fight against single-use plastics.

    (1)、Why does Grounds want to replace plastic wrappers with eatable ones?
    A、The plastic ones are not eco-friendly. B、The plastic ones do harm to our health. C、The eatable ones appeal to more consumers. D、The eatable ones save more cooking time.
    (2)、What makes the bio-based films fail to be broken down in practice?
    A、The immature technology. B、The high cost of the process. C、Their very special material composition. D、Their specific condition for being broken down.
    (3)、What do we know about the eatable wrapper according to Paragraph 3 ?
    A、It ensures longer preservation time. B、It requires a special cooking method. C、It ends up as the sauce for food. D、It improves the nutrition of noodles.
    (4)、The fourth paragraph mainly talks about the _______the eatable noodle wrappers.
    A、The method of using B、the process of making C、the packaging design for D、the storage requirements for
