A young Nepali climber is seeking to popularize a toilet fashioned from a plastic bucket with a lid to promote eco—friendly climbing on Mount Qomolangma．Hundreds of climbers flock to the world’s tallest peak at about 8，850 meters every year，with many simply squatting（蹲）in the open or hunching behind rocks as the Qomolangma base camp has no proper toilet facilities．Dawa Steven Sherpa，25，who led an eco-Qomolangma expedition to collect trash dumped by previous climbers，said his team used a plastic bucket as well as a gas-impervious（不可渗透的） bag designed to safely contain human waste． “It is portable and very secure，”Sherpa said，“I want to promote anything that manages human waste on the mountain．”

    Sherpa’s team，during its month-long expedition，picked up 965 kg of cans，kitchen waste，tents，parts of an Italian helicopter that crashed 36 years ago and remains of the body of a British climber who died in 1972．In addition，his team also brought down 65kg of human waste produced by its 1 8 members，which is handed over to a local environment group at the base camp for management．“To date，no other container designed for human waste exists in this size，weight or strength，”Sherpa said of the U． S． -designed bucket，which is 11 inches tall and weights 2． 4 pounds，and has an opening that is eight inches in diameter（直径）．

    Tourism，including mountain climbing，is a key source of income and accounts for nearly 4 percent of Nepal’s total domestic product．About 3,000 people have climbed Mount Qomolangma since it was first scaled（登上）by New Zealand’s Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa in 1953，and there are growing concerns about the environmental impact of the large numbers of climbers．“There is a heightened need for environmentally friendly practices in climbing，not only to have a neutral impact on the mountains but a positive impact．”Sherpa said．

My horse，Treasure，is my hero because she helped me discover how t6 relate to her．In the process，she“fixed”my relationship with my husband and my children．

    When I got her，she was 2 years old．She was not going to accept any kind of instructions from me．In the interest of not getting myself killed，I started to read and educate myself on ways to manage a high-spirited horse．

I discovered horsemanship（马术），a method of training that focuses on communication．In order to communicate with another person，you must be understood．The very definition（定义）of understanding is two or more persons share the same idea．This simple definition had a big influence on me．I realized that communication is a two-way street!

When I started to adopt horsemanship in my life，I noticed a change in the way other people related to me．My husband，when I stopped ordering him around，became happier and more helpful．My children，when I practiced being fair，firm and most of all，considerate（体贴的），were motivated（激发）to act sooner，at the polite request instead of the orders from me．

    I think the most valuable life skill I learned from my horse is that pressure motivates．but release（释放；放松）teaches．My children were more considerate of each other．and started to ask first，without telling．I became aware of my position as a role model．

My horse was not hard to catch．Today，five years later，I have the perfect horse．I also have very polite kids and a very happy husband．There’s nothing in the world that can compare to being loved by ones you love most—even if it all started with the attitude of a very special horse．

A device that stops drivers from falling asleep at the wheel is about to go through testing at

Department of Transport laboratories and could go on sale within 12 months

       The system, called Driver Alert, aims to reduce deadly road accidents by 20% - 40% that are caused by tiredness. Airline pilots can also use it to reduce the 30% of all pilot-error accidents that are related to tiredness

       Driver Alert is based on a computerized wristband （手表带） The device, worn by drivers or pilots, gives out a sound about every four minutes during a car journey. After each sound the driver must respond by squeezing（挤压）the steering wheel （方向盘）. A sensor in the wristband detects this pressing action and measures the time between the sound and the driver’s response.

       Tiredness is directly related to a driver’s response time. Usually, a watchful driver would take about 400 milliseconds to respond, but once that falls to more than 500 milliseconds, it suggests that the driver is getting sleepy

       In such cases the device gives out more regular and louder sounds, showing that the driver should open a window or stop for a rest. If the driver’s response continues to slow down, the sounds become more frequent until a nonstop alarm warns that the driver must stop as soon as possible

       The device has been delivered to the department’s laboratories for testing. If these tests, scheduled for six months’ time, are successful, the makers will bring the product to market within about a year

1．According to the text, Driver Alert ______

A．aims to reduce tiredness-related accidents

B．has gone through testing at laboratories

C．aims to prevent drivers from sleeping

D．has been on sale for 12 months

2．How should a driver respond to the sounds from Driver Alert?

       A．By sounding a warning

       B．By touching the wristband.

C．By checking the driving time

D．By pressing the steering wheel

3．When the driver gets sleepy while driving, Driver Alert ______

       A．moves more regularly

B．stops working properly

  C．opens the window for the driver     

       D．sounds more frequently and loudly
