二、阅读理解
You don’t have to be a scientist to solve big environmental problems. One Dutch designer is looking for creative ways to make a change-and he’s inviting bikers to join him.
Daan Roosgaarde is a designer from the Netherlands. He uses creative ideas to improve city life. For his Smog (烟雾) Free Project, he designed a special tower that cleans air in Chinese parks. In the Netherlands, he designed a shining bicycle path.
Now Daan and his team are working with engineers at Chinese bike-sharing company ofo to create a new product for public use. It’s an air-cleaning machine connected to a bicycle and is part of the Smog Free Project. In smoggy weather, the machine would breathe in the air in front of the bike and blow out a stream of clean air toward the biker’s face.
It’s no secret that air pollution is a big problem for China. In winter, it’s common for thick clouds of haze (霾), caused largely by factory production, burning of coal and car emissions (排放物), to cover areas of China.
In 2016. only one-fourth of Chinese cities met the country’s air quality standards, according to a survey of 338 cities nationwide from the Ministry of Environmental Protection.
“Of course one tower and a few bikes won’t solve China’s air pollution problem,” Daan said, “but smog-free bikes are an exciting idea that will hopefully inspire communities to create greener cities.”
24．According to the writer, ________.
A．air pollution is not a big problem in China
B．creative ideas may help improve city life
C．only scientists can solve big environmental problems
D．the survey of 338 cities nationwide was not necessary
25．The air-cleaning machine offers clean air to the biker by ________.
A．blowing out dirty air B．running fast with the bike
C．cleaning the air around the biker D．breathing in dirty air and cleaning it
26．Daan is inviting bikers to join him in order to ________.
A．raise money for the tower B．test his new machine
C．help solve the air pollution problem D．make more Chinese friends
27．What is the best title for the passage
A．Breathing in and out B．Biking for fresh air
C．Surveys from the government D．China’s air pollution problem

In poor countries, people have to walk far to work, or to school, or simply to collect water. Workers in the countryside earn less than one dollar a day. By walking around with the Bitwalking app, they could earn three times more.
