It could reduce the trash by 42% over 10 years.Easy-On ShoesIn 2012, Matthew Walzer, a high school student with a disability, sent a note to Nike.

Alice Moore is a teenager entrepreneur（企业家）, who in May 2015 set up her business AilieCandy． By the time she was 13, her company was worth millions of dollars with the invention of a super﹣sweet treat that could save kids' teeth, instead of destroying them．It all began when Moore visited a bank with her dad． On the outing, she was offered a candy bar． However, her dad reminded her that sugary treats were bad for her teeth． But Moore was sick of missing out on candies． So she desired to get round the warning, "Why can't I make a healthy candy that's good for my teeth so that my parents can't say no to it? " With that in mind, Moore asked her dad if she could start her own candy company． He recommended that she do some research and talk to dentists about what a healthier candy would contain．With her dad's permission, she spent the next two years researching online and conducting trials to get a recipe that was both tasty and tooth﹣friendly． She also approached dentists to learn more about teeth cleaning． Consequently, she succeeded in making a kind of candy only using natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria．Moore then used her savings to get her business off the ground． Afterwards, she and her father secured their first business meeting with a supermarket owner, who finally agreed to sell Moore's product﹣CanCandy．As CanCandy's success grows, so does Moore's credibility as a young entrepreneur． Moore is enthusiastic about the candy she created, and she's also positive about what the future might bring． She hopes that every kid can have a clean mouth and a broad smile．Meanwhile, with her parents' help, Moore is generally able to live a normal teenage life． Although she founded her company early in life, she wasn't driven primarily by profit． Moore wants to use her unique talent to help others find their smiles． She donates 10% of AilieCandy's profits to Big Smiles． With her talent and determination, it appears that the sky could be the limit for Alice Moore．（1）How did Moore react to her dad's warning？________A.

Internet Time Tied to Teen Depression（抑郁） SymptomsSpending time online is normal behaviour for teenagers． But too much Internet use by teens ﹣or too little, for that matter ﹣might be related to depression, a new study finds． The findings, reported in the journal of Pediatrics, do not mean that the Internet is to blame． For one, teens in the study who spent no time online were also at increased risk of depression symptoms． Instead, the researchers say that both heavy Internet use, and non ﹣use, could serve as signals that a teenager is having a hard time．For the study, Dr Pierre﹣Andre Michaud and his colleagues at the University of Lausanne, Switzerland, surveyed 7, 200 individuals aged 16 to 20 about their Internet use． Those who were online more than two hours per day were considered "heavy" Internet users, while those online anywhere from several times per week to two hours per day were considered "regular" users．The teenagers also answered a number of health﹣related questions, including some standard questions about "depressive tendencies" that gauge （判定） how often a person feels sad or hopeless． Compared with regular Internet users, the study found, kids who were heavy users or non﹣users were more likely to be depressed or very depressed．Among male teens, heavy users and non﹣users were both around one﹣third more likely to have a high depression score, compared to "regular" users． Among girls, heavy Internet users had an 86 percent greater chance of depression, while non﹣users had a 46 percent greater likelihood compared to regular users．That was with factors like family income and any chronic health problems taken into account． Since teenagers typically go online to contact friends, the researchers guess that those who are never online may be more socially ________．（1）What' s the purpose of Dr Michaud and his colleagues' study？________A.
