Ⅲ.阅读理解

A company has designed a water bottle, the Memobottle, which is ideal for the office worker's bag, because it's completely flat. With the same shape as a piece of paper, the Memobottle is a reusable water bottle that slides into your bag to lie next to books and laptops. The bottle, which can also be washed in a dishwasher, is designed to help reduce the number of plastic bottles in landfills (填埋)．

Two creative people Jesse Leeworthy and Jonathan Byrt, both 28, designed the bottle to be convenient to carry and environmentally friendly. It is made from a durable and dishwasher­friendly “green” plastic.

Leeworthy and Byrt, from Australia, say more than 600 billion single-use bottles were sold globally last year. In America alone, studies show that around 1,500 single-use water bottles are consumed every second — only 20 percent of these are recycled. And the cost of buying more and more plastic bottles adds up —

the pair say that bottled water costs approximately 1,400 times more than tap water. “We've always been passionate about the environment，”

said Leeworthy. “For years we have been focused on creative design that provides environmental remedy while improving social convenience. The Memobottle was designed to overcome two problems that we see in our society: our attachment to the outdoors, and our inability to fit water bottles in laptop bags.”

The bottle will be available in

three different sizes —

A5 which holds 750 ml, A4 which holds 1.25 litres and letter size which stores 1.25 litres. The product is seeking funding on Kickstarter and has already soared (飙升) past its primary goal of raising ￡8,310 (D|S13,500), reaching it in just 36 hours. Jonathan Byrt said, “The feedback we've received has been overwhelmingly positive！The emails of support and interest, and social media comments have been amazing！”

The product is expected to be on the market by Christmas and will be available for global delivery. 语篇解读：无论你身处何地，你都需要时刻补充水分。而当出门在外的时候，水的携带就变得不那么方便了，澳大利亚两名很有创意的年轻人设计了形状和纸张一样的水壶，携带方便且环保实用。
