It looks and feels just like plastic

19、, but can be broken down easily. The bags bring no harm to the environment. Both humans and animals can safely eat them.EnviGreen founder Ashwath Hedge spent four years doing experiments with a combination of 12 natural ingredients. They include potato, corn, vegetable oil and banana. He made the in

20、gredients into liquid and used the liquid to make the bag. Although the EnviGreen bag is about 35 percent more expensive than a common plastic bag, it has many advantages. According to the Wall Street Journal, it takes 1,000 years for common plastic bags to break down. But an EnviGreen bag can natur

21、ally break down in less than 180 days. It also breaks down in less than a day in water, and in about 15 seconds in boiling water. Hedge was happy to show it in his interview with The Better India. In the interview, he put an EnviGreen bag in water and ate it with a smile.According to Indias Minister

26、 typically work five days a week for eight hours each day. However, many employees want to work a four-day week and are willing to accept less pay in order to do so.If a law required companies to offer their employees the option of working a four-day workweek for four-fifths of their normal pay, it

27、would benefit the economy as a whole as well as the individual companies and the employees who would decide to take the option. The shortened workweek would increase company profits because employees would feel more rested and quicker, and as a result, they would make fewer costly errors in their wo

28、rk. More staff would be hired to ensure the accomplishment of the same amount of work, but it would not result in additional pay that the company has to prepare for these people. It is because four-day employees would only be paid 80 percent of the normal rate. In the end, companies would have fewer

29、 overworked and error-prone（容易出错的）employees for the same money, which would increase company profits.For the country as a whole, one of the primary benefits of offering this option to employees is that it would reduce unemployment rates. If many full-time employees started working fewer hours, some

30、of their workload would have to be given to others. Thus, for every four employees who would go on an 80 percent week, a new employee could be hired at the 80 percent rate.Finally, the option of a four-day workweek would be better for individual employees. Employees who could afford a lower salary i

31、n exchange for more free time could improve the quality of their lives by spending the extra time with their families, pursuing private interests, or enjoying leisure activities.13.To take the option, the employees would like to .A.work longerB.give up private interestsC.get less payD.make fewer cos
