三.阅读理解
It started with a trip to the waste transport station. In 2011, Miranda Wang visited a waste transport station in her hometown of Vancouver. She and her friend Jeanny Yao, now a senior at the University of Toronto, were shocked to see the huge amount of plastic in the station.
So they decided to do something. As seniors in high school, they read through the hundreds of pages of scientific papers and had an idea: find bacteria (细菌) that can degrade (降解) plastic. The University of British Columbia invited Wang and Yao to use their lab space to start working on their project.
Now four years in, Wang and Yao finally made it. They are turning their high school science project into a multi-million dollar, award-winning business. They set up BioCellection last May, a company that takes plastic pollution out of the ocean and then uses bacteria to break down these plastics into a product used in the textile (纺织) industry.
“Basically, we recycle ocean plastic pollution into usable materials,” Wang said.
BioCellection recently won the Grand Prize in Pennvention. It was also the top undergraduate team and the winner of the Social Impact Prize in the Wharton Undergraduate Business Plan Competition.
Though Wang and Yao have been developing their idea throughout college, this year they take their project to the next level, getting two patents ( 专 利 ) and nearly $300,000 in funding. BioCellection makes money by both clearing plastic from the ocean and selling the product produced from the waste plastic. Under their business plan, BioCellection aims to become a $100 million company, taking 243,000 tons of plastic out of the ocean every year. “The most sustainable (可持续的) technology comes from sustainable business,” they said.
However, the pair's main focus is on the influence of this technology. “We hope that the younger generation would never see plastic pollution.” They said.
1. When did Wang and Yao begin their project
A. When they studied in the university. B. When they were in high school.
C. After they finished high school. D. Before they found a job.
2. According to the passage, what's the main problem that Wang and Yao have been solving
A. The waste transport station can no longer accept plastic.
B. They need a lot of money to run the plastic company.
C. There is much waste plastic pollution in the ocean.
D. Plastic industry is facing difficulties to develop further.
3. According to the passage, how did Wang and Yao deal with their project
A. They sold their project to a technology company to make more money.
B. They kept working on it while studying in the University of British Columbia.
C. They did nothing special but worked on it with the help of the government.
D. They turned the project into an award-winning business called BioCellection.
4. Which of the following statements is NOT true about BioCellection
A. One way to make money is selling bacteria that can degrade plastic.
B. It can recycle plastic and produce usable materials.
C. It was set up by Wang and Yao last May and develops fast this year.
D. It aims to take 243,000 tons of plastic out of the ocean every year.
