" I saw people in India would put plastie waste into potholes and burn it.The plastic would melt down（熔化）in the hole，"said McCartney."I know there must be some similarities between the plastic and bitumen，which both come from oil.That's how I started to think about mixing them，" he said.After lots of testing，McCartney found the perfect idea.And now his company has built many plastic roads around the world，from Australia to Europe.A one﹣kilometer stretch of road uses about 684（寿命）.The materials can be reused to build new roads."We are just a small part of ending the plastic problems，but it is nice to be part of it，" McCartney said.

D．Mammals have thick fur covering their whole bodies because they have no sweat glands.18．（10分）How nice are you？Do you give money to homeless people？Do you offer your seat to someone in need on a bus？Many people believe that confident people think more highly of themselves，while those who have low self﹣esteem（自尊）think less of their good qualities.However，reported The Guardian.The study was done by Jonathan Freeman，a psychology professor from the University of London，UK.He found that 98 percent of British people consider themselves to be among the nicest 50 percent of the population.In the study（评级）their own niceness.Then he got people to answer questions like "Do you give directions to strangers？" and "Have you ever donated blood？".The results showed that people are not as nice as they think they are.Two thirds of them seldom helped others carry heavy shopping bags，and only a quarter of them donated blood.In another study by psychologists from universities in Chicago and Virginia，US，some people were shown pictures of themselves.Some pictures had been more or less changed to make them appear more attractive.When asked to pick the unchangedSo，why do we think we're nicer than we actually are？There are many theories（理论）.A popular one says we cheat ourselves unknowinglyHow can we solve it？Other studies show that there is a simple way：feedback （反馈）.Compare others' opinion toward yourself with your own and you will see a clearer picture.根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
