You don’ t have to be a scientist to solve big environmental problems. One Dutch designer is finding creative ways to make a change—and he’s inviting bikers to join him.

Daan Roosgaarde, 38, is a designer from Holland. He uses creative ideas to improve city life. For his Smog (雾霾) Free Project, he designed a special tower that cleans air in Chinese parks. In Holland, 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.”

61. 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

62. The air-cleaning machine offers clean air to the hiker 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

63. From the passage, we know that .

A. people who have creative ideas can get free bikes

B. only smog-free bikes can go on the shining bicycle path

C. Daan and his family spent all their time im proving China’s air quality

D. China’s haze in winter happens because of more than three causes

64. 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

63. What is the best title for the passage'?

A. Breathing In and Out

C. Survey from the Government,

D. China’s Air Pollution Problem

Don’t Judge a Book by Its Cover

Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve loved reading crime and detective (侦探) novels, so I guess it was pretty normal that I started writing them when I was older. However, my family is very big on having a traditional career (职业) and so when I said that I wanted to go to college and study writing, my parents told me that I couldn’t. They told me that I had to study for a degree so that I would achieve a career, and not something as risky as writing. I suppose I could have studied joumalism (新闻) ,but I didn’t want to lose interest in writing because it would be something I would do every day for work, not for pleasure. I thought that teaching looked like a pretty good compromise (妥协) , especially because of the long holidays. It was a good choice: by the time I was twenty-five，I’d already finished two novels and had an agent.

To be honest, I never meant to keep my being a crime writer a secret or anything, and my friends have always known. One of the reasons most people don’t know is because my agent told me that my name Hazel sounded too much like a romance (浪漫) novelist for older women. She suggested Brooke Lane and I thought, “Well, if you think it’ll make me successful, okay,” I’d totally forgotten about it until I walked into school one day and saw one of my workmates reading my novel. I asked her some questions about it, and it wa s so clear that she had no idea that I’d written it - she even offered to lend it to me after she’d finished! Of course, sometimes I wonder what my students would think if they knew that their teacher was going home on the weekend to write about murders and dead bodies, but I think my parents probably did me a favor: my teaching job keeps me in touch with the real world.

66. Hazel is probably ．

A. an agent

B. a journalist

C. a teacher and artist

D. a teacher and writer

67. The underlined words “is very big on ” in the passage most probably mean.

A. to give no advice

B. to like something very much

C. to have more experiences

D. to misunderstand something

68. I t’s clear that Hazel.

A. agreed to study journalism for a degree

B. accepted Brooke Lane as her pen name

C. would like to write something for teaching

D. told her workmates about her writing novels

69. Hazel finally realized that her parents’ advice on her career was.

A. helpful

B. exciting

C. disappointing

D. risky

70. We can infer from the passage that .

A. Hazel likes showing off in public

B. Hazel’s students a ll want to write novels

C. Hazel’s agent has played a role in her success

D. older women prefer the name Brooke to Hazel

B Every 30 seconds there is an earthquake. But don't worry because most are so weak that they cannot be felt. Only a few big ones hurt people. Many earthquakes happened in China, such as the big one in Sichuan in 2008. Thousands of people died in it. So it's important to know what to do when one hits. Here are some tips on how to stay safe in an earthquake. 1. If you are indoors during an earthquake, hide under a desk. Stay away from windows and anything that could fall on you. 2. If you are outdoors, move to a clear place. Try to be away from trees, signs, buildings and streetlights. These could fall on you. 3. If you are in a shop and far from the door, don't try to run outside and rush for exits (出口). Everyone will be doing that and you'll find it hard getting out. Don't get into a lift during an earthquake. Just hide under some strong cover near you. 4. When an earthquake has ended, be careful because aftershocks may still happen.
