(D)waist“Stay inside” is no longer a safe way to escape from unhealthful air. Recent studies have shown that indoor airpollution is almost always two to five times worse than outside pollution. Buildings create their own pollution, and the airinside many homes, office buildings, and schools is full of pollutants including chemicals, bacteria, and smoke. Thesepollutants are causing a group of unpleasant and dangerous symptoms such as eye or throat discomfort, headache,dizziness, and tiredness, which experts call “sick building syndrome.”There is a possible solution to the problem of “sick” buildings. A scientist at NASA was trying to find ways to cleanthe air in space stations. He discovered that houseplants actually remove pollutants from the air. But we don’t knowenough yet. There are many questions. For instance, which pollutants can plants remove? Which can’t they remove?How many plants are necessary to clean the air in the room? When we are able to answer these questions, we might findthat plants offer an important pollution-control system for the 21st century.請回答下列第41 題至第45 題

(D)I’m sorryPandas are in danger of dying out. One answer to this problem is obvious: the Chinese should give them morespace and more bamboo. In recent years the Chinese, with considerable help from panda lovers worldwide, have triedto do that. They have set aside twelve reserves that have different varieties of bamboo; if one dies out, the pandas willnot starve to death, as at least 138 did during a major bamboo famine in the mid 70s. Indeed, William Conway, directorof the New York Zoo, gives the Chinese high marks. “They are spending more effort on pandas than the US is ongrizzly bears, which are even rarer in the 48 US states other than Alaska,”he says. “They are an example to us.”請依上文回答第42 題至第46 題。
