Back in 1989, a NASA study found that plants put in sealed rooms could reduce the levels of pollutants, some of which can cause cancer. That finding led to the widespread notion worldwide that adding houseplants to rooms will lower levels of indoor air pollution, but later studies suggest that the effect is too small to make a difference in people's homes.So, Stuart Strand at the University of Washington in Seattle decided to enhance the pollution-reducing power of golden pothos(绿萝) by adding a rabbit gene for a liver enzyme(酶) that breaks down a wide range of pollutants. This approach boosted the effect several times. But even so, to make a meaningful difference, Strand concluded that a fan would be needed to move air over the plants.Now, a start-up enterprise called Neoplants has created another GM pothos. It has two added genes from bacteria as well as extra copies of some of the plant's own genes. This enables it to break down certain harmful air pollutants, the company says.Comprehensive tests done in cooperation with the University of Lille in France suggest that the plants are 30 times better at removing these air pollutants than the best plants tested by NASA, says Patrick Torbey of Neoplants. The firm released a paper last week describing its work, but hasn't submitted it to a scientific journal.“This new paper looks pretty good,” says Strand. It isn't possible to directly compare the effectiveness of his GM pothos with that of Neoplants's one as different tests were done, he says.It remains unclear whether Neoplants's pothos will make any difference in an actual home. But Torbey says the company is setting up a research facility near Paris that will include two “bedrooms” to test this.1.What did the NASA study in 1989 find A.Sealed rooms contained air pollutants. B.Sealed rooms could be cleaned by plants.C.Plants could lower the levels of pollutants. D.Plants could cure cancer caused by pollutants.2.How does Stuart Strand improve the golden pothos A.By breaking down pollutants. B.By moving the air over the plants.C.By modifying the genes of the plants. D.By using the power of golden pothos.3.What can we know about GM pothos from paragraph 4 A.Its satisfying effect. B.Its practical application.C.Expectations of future studies. D.Limitations of copies of some plants' genes.4.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text A.A new approach to solving air problems B.Houseplants improved to clean pollutantsC.Scientists testing plants to reduce pollution D.Genetically modified versions of houseplantsⅡ.七选五What to do about climate changeWith scientists warning that 2024 could be the warmest ever, and destructive wildfires tearing through communities, the climate crisis is no longer a distant threat. 1 Use energy wisely.Using energy with wisdom is one way to cut your carbon footprint. It's not just about how much energy you use, but when you use it. 2 When demand is low, or during the brightest part of the day, to use solar energy can help. 3 Aviation(航空) brings a significant challenge of achieving net-zero(净零) emissions. Despite accounting for just three percent of global emissions, it is a rapidly growing source and difficult to reduce carbon emissions. Reducing air travel is recommended until battery-powered and hydrogen-powered planes become practical. 4 There is also a recovery of Europe's night trains for low-carbon travel. Grow your own.Whether you have a windowsill(窗台) or a smallholding, growing your own herbs, flowers or vegetables can be beneficial not just to pollinators(传花粉者), which can feed off the plants, but to your mental health. Sure, cultivating a garden isn't going to absorb much carbon. 5 And the research suggests it is good for our mental health—particularly amid alarming news about the climate. A.Avoid the skies.B.Heat water less.C.Cultivate a garden to absorb carbon.D.But it will help you reconnect with nature.E.Set timers for appliances to run through the night.F.No-fly travel companies are making overland travel more attractive.G.Listed below are three things you can do to reduce your carbon footprint and save yourself from climate despair.1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

of pollutants, some of which can cause cancer.”可知,植物可以降低污染物的水平。故选C。2.C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Stuart Strand...decided to enhance the pollution-reducing power of golden pothos by adding a rabbit gene for a liver enzyme”可知,Stuart Strand通过增加一种兔子的肝酶基因来改良绿萝,即通过调整植物的基因来改良绿萝。故选C。3.A 推理判断题。第四段中提到了转基因绿萝清除空气污染物的能力比美国国家航空航天局测试的最好的植物强30倍。由此可推断,转基因绿萝清除空气污染物的效果让人满意。故选A。4.B 主旨大意题。本文第一段主要提出了“室内植物有降低污染物水平的能力”这样一个观点,下文主要介绍了Stuart Strand和Neoplants公司通过调整植物的基因来提升其降低污染物水平的能力,所以B项“被改良以清洁污染物的室内植物”最适合作为文章标题。故选B。【高频词汇】 1.concern n.担心;忧虑 2.make a difference有影响;起作用 3.break down使分解4.approach n.方法;临近 5.boost v.使增长 6.conclude v.得出结论;推断出 7.in cooperation with...和……合作 8.modify v.调整;稍作修改【差距词汇】 notion n.观念长难句原句 Back in 1989, a NASA study found that plants put in sealed rooms
