26、Everyone knows by now that plastic pollution is a huge problem for the environment. Beijing, for example, has dealt with this by banning (禁止) thin plastic bags, plastic tableware (餐具) and others made of plastic in supermarkets, restaurants and hotels since May 1.

But an even better way to solve the problem might be around the corner. Researchers at a French company called Carbios have discovered a bacterial enzyme (细菌酶) that can break down plastic. The enzyme, which was first found in compost (混合肥料) leaves, turns plastic into chemical “building blocks” that can then be used to create new products.

The new enzyme was uncovered in research. Researchers studied over 100,000 microorganisms (微生物) to find one that could break down plastic quickly. The leaf compost enzyme was first discovered in 2012. Scientists changed its genes (基因), allowing it to break down 90 percent of one ton of plastic in less than 10 hours.

“It had been completely forgotten, but it turned out to be the best,” said Professor Alain Marty, a science officer at Carbios.

The enzyme especially breaks down PET, a type of plastic that is most commonly used to produce plastic bottles and food packaging. It is the fifth most common type of plastic that we use.

Carbios said it is working together with companies like Pepsi and Nestle— major consumers (消费者) of plastic themselves —to develop their research and start using the enzyme on an industrial scale (范围).

【1】What do we know about the enzyme?

A．It is a type of bacteria.

B．It can break down plastic quickly.

C．It can break down PVC.

D．It is the fifth-most common type of plastic.

【2】What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?

A．How the scientists found the new enzyme.

B．Where the scientists found the new enzyme.

C．When the scientists found the new enzyme.

D．How the scientists changed the enzyme’s genes.

【3】What does Alain Marty mean in Paragraph 4?

A．Better late than never.

B．Never too late to find the new enzyme.

C．Change the enzyme’s genes.

D．It was a pity to forget the new enzyme.

【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A．Carbios will turn its focus toward production.

B．Carbios will keep looking for a more efficient enzyme.

C．Carbios will search for more companies like Pepsi to work with.

D．Carbios will work together with companies that use a lot of plastic.

【5】Which can be the best title for the passage?

A．Natural way to reuse plastic

B．Natural way to recycle plastic

C．The new enzyme used in plastic

D．The man-made way to break down plastic
