35、ormsHumans produce more than 300 million tons of plastic every year.Almost half of that winds up in landfills(垃圾填埋场)，and up to 12 million tons pollute the oceans.So far there is no effective way to get rid of it，but a new study suggests an answer may lie in the stomachs of some hungry worms.Research

36、ers in Spain and England recently found that the worms of the greater wax moth can break down polyethylene，which accounts for 40% of plastics.The team left 100 wax worms on a commercial polyethylene shopping bag for 12 hours，and the worms consumed and broke down about 92 milligrams，or almost 3% of i

37、t.To confirm that the worms chewing alone was not responsible for the polyethylene breakdown，the researchers made some worms into paste(糊状物) and applied it to plastic films.14 hours later the films had lost 13% of their massapparently broken down by enzymes(酶) from the worms stomachs.Their findings

38、were published in Current Biology in 2017.Federica Bertocchini，coauthor of the study，says the worms ability to break down their everyday foodbeeswaxalso allows them to break down plastic.“Wax is a complex mixture，but the basic bond in polyethylene，the carboncarbon bond，is there as well，”she explains

39、.“The wax worm evolved a method or system to break this bond.”Jennifer DeBruyn，a microbiologist at the University of Tennessee，who was not involved in the study，says it is not surprising that such worms can break down polyethylene.But compared with previous studies，she finds the speed of breaking do

40、wn in this one exciting.The next step，DeBruyn says，will be to identify the cause of the breakdown.Is it an enzyme produced by the worm itself or by its gut microbes(肠道微生物)?Bertocchini agrees and hopes her teams findings might one day help employ the enzyme to break down plastics in landfills.But she

41、 expects using the chemical in some kind of industrial processnot simply “millions of worms thrown on top of the plastic.”本文是一篇说明文。作者介绍了一项科学发现：一种吃塑料的虫子大蜡螟。它胃中的酶能够降解塑料，从而为人们解决塑料污染问题提供了新的途径。24What can we learn about the worms in the study?AThey take plastics as their everyday food. BThey are newly evo

42、lved creatures.CThey can consume plastics. DThey wind up in landfills.答案：C解析：推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“.found that the worms of the greater wax moth can break down polyethylene.”和第二句中的“the worms consumed and broke down about 92 milligrams”可知，研究人员在研究中发现大蜡螟蠕虫可以分解塑料中的聚乙烯，显然也可以分解垃圾中的塑料，与选项C中提到的“吃塑料”吻合。选项A与第三段第一句不吻

43、合；选项B“新进化的生物”，文中没有这样的信息；选项D张冠李戴，由第一段第一、二句可排除。25According to Jennifer DeBruyn，the next step of the study is to _.Aidentify other means of the breakdown Bfind out the source of the enzymeCconfirm the research findings Dincrease the breakdown speed答案：B解析：细节理解题。根据第四段最后两句“The next step.Is it an enzyme pr

44、oduced by the worm itself or by its gut microbes(肠道微生物)？”可知，接下来人们需要证实的就是酶是从哪里产生的。选项B“查明酶的来源”与此吻合。其他选项显然与the next step of the study不匹配。26It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the chemical might_.Ahelp to raise worms Bhelp make plastic bagsCbe used to clean the oceans Dbe produced in factori

45、es in future答案：D解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段第二句“But she expects using the chemical in some kind of industrial processnot simply millions of worms.”可知，研究人员期望不仅仅能用大蜡螟蠕虫去清理塑料垃圾，也期望在某种工业流程中用这种化学制品，这与选项D中提到的“今后工厂可能生产这种化学制品”吻合。A、B、C三项属于无中生有。27What is the main purpose of the passage?ATo explain a study method on worms.

46、 BTo introduce the diet of a special worm.CTo present a way to break down plastics. DTo propose new means to keep ecobalance.答案：C解析：推理判断题。作者通过本文介绍了一项降解塑料垃圾的研究，显然是为人们提供了一条降解塑料垃圾的新途径。选项C与此意吻合。CIn ancient Egypt, a shopkeeper discovered that he could attract customers to his shop simply by making change

47、s to its environment. Modern businesses have been following his lead, with more tactics (策略)One tactic involves where to display the goods. For example, stores place fruits and vegetables in the first section. They know that customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will

48、buy more junk food (垃圾食品) later in their trip. In department stores, the womens shoe section is generally next to the womens cosmetics (化妆品) section: while the shop assistant is going back to find the right size shoe, bored customers are likely to wander over and find some cosmetics they might want

49、to try later.Besides, businesses seek to appeal to customers senses. Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping, so they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day. Music sells goods, too. Researchers in Britain found that wh

50、en French music was played, sales of French wines went up.When it comes to the selling of houses, businesses also use highly rewarding tactics. They find that customers make decisions in the first few seconds upon walking in the door, and turn it into a business opportunity. A California builder des

51、igned the structure of its houses smartly. When entering the house, the customer would see the Pacific Ocean through the windows, and then the pool through an open stairway leading to the lower level. The instant view of water on both levels helped sell these $ 10 million houses.这是一篇说明文。作者介绍了几种吸引顾客的

52、策略，包括商品的摆放位置、气味、背景音乐等。28Why do stores usually display fruits and vegetables in the first section?ATo save customers time. BTo show they are high quality foods.CTo help sell junk food. DTo sell them at discount prices.答案：C解析：细节理解题。依据第二段的第二、三句可知，商家知道那些购买新鲜蔬菜、水果的人会感到高兴，随后会买更多的垃圾食品，因此商家这样摆放的目的是想销售更多的垃圾食

53、品。29According to Paragraph 3, which of the following encourages customers to buy?AOpening the store early in the morning. BDisplaying British wines next to French ones.CInviting customers to play music. DFilling the store with the smell of fresh bread.答案：D解析：细节理解题。依据第三段可知，烘焙食物的香味能激发人们的购买欲望，因此商家在早上把食

54、物烘焙好，让香味在商场飘荡，以促使人们更多地消费。30What is the California builders story intended to prove?AThe house structure is a key factor customers consider. BThe more costly the house is, the better it sells.CAn ocean view is much to the customers taste. DA good first impression increases sales.答案：D解析：推理判断题。依据尾段的第二句

55、和尾句可知，因为有好的环境，顾客很快决定买房，因此良好的第一印象能促进销售。31What is the main purpose of the passage?ATo explain how businesses turn people into their customers. BTo introduce how businesses have grown from the past.CTo report researches on customer behavior. DTo show dishonest business practices.答案：A解析：主旨大意题。文章介绍了商家采用不

56、同的吸引人们消费的策略，因此选项A能概括文章的大意。DIn the future those who are taking care of old or sick people my get help from the house itself.Over the last few years, new technology, such as WiFi and flat TV screens, has changed our homes and the way we live.Now another_technology revolution is happening.A new project

62、2 refer to?AThe WiFi. BThe Interhome. CThe flat TV screens. DThe Internet.答案：B解析：词义猜测题。根据画线短语后的“A new project at the University of Hertfordshire wants to create a home that monitors people living in it who are weak or elderly”及下文内容可知，another technology指的是智能房屋，故选B。33Why do the researchers develop the

63、 Interhome project?ATo help look after the elderly. BTo take place of the existing services.CTo help students design new engineering.
