This was my first time to help my father in his business. I got for my work that day.

Scientists in Britain and the United States have made a new kind of enzyme(酵素) that eats plastics (塑料). With its help, plastics can be turned into smaller parts and go away quickly. Scientists believe that, in the future, it could solve the problem of plastic pollution.
The enzyme is able to break down(分解) PET, a form of plastic. PET was first made in the 1940s and is now widely used to make plastic bottles. It can stay in the environment for many years and pollute large areas of land and water. So it has always been a headache to deal with the waste from PET and other plastics.
The researchers found it while examining the structure a natural enzyme in Japan. They found that the natural enzyme was helping to break down PET plastics. So, they decided to make small changes to the enzyme by adding some amino acids(氨基酸). It made the natural enzyme's plastic-eating abilities work faster and better.
John McGeehan, one of the lead researchers, said, "We have made an improved enzyme. It's better than the natural one. And we are trying to make more improvements to it." He went on, "the enzyme is not bad for humans or animals, and it is friendly to the environment. So we are thinking about putting it into wider use."
The team is now trying to make the enzyme break down PET in large quantities (大量的). “We’ll see that the plastic pollution may be stopped with this technology. However, there is still a long way to go," John McGeehan added.
1.According to the scientists, the enzyme may solve the problem of ______ pollution.
A.air B.water C.light D.plastic
2.The researchers found that a natural enzyme helped eat plastics ______.
A.in Britain B.in the US C.in Japan D.in China
3.Which of the following TRUE according to the passage?
A.The scientists are still trying to improve the enzyme.
B.The enzyme will pollute large areas of land and water.
C.The natural enzyme works better than the improved one.
D.The natural enzyme is bad for humans and animals.
4.The passage is written in a / an______ tone(语气).
A.sad B.hopeful C.angry D.crazy

People are playing video games everywhere they go these days, whether they are riding a bus, waiting for the subway or sitting in a restaurant .Some of them enjoy these games so much that they can't put them down.
But is playing video games a healthy habit? The World Health Organization doesn't think so. In June, it accepted “gaming disorder (游戏上瘾)” as a mental health problem in its International Classification of Diseases (国际疾病分类), CNN reported.
According to the International Classification of Disease, "gaming disorder" means continuous or longtime video-gaming behaviors, whether online or offline. Of course, not everyone who plays video games has this disorder. It does have its main characteristics (特征).
Jack Melville, one of the "gaming disorder" video game players, told China Daily that when he began playing video games, he promised himself to control the playing time less than one hour. But as he played video games more and more and got more pleasure from playing games, he couldn't control the time anymore and he even played video games throughout the night.
Another middle school student, Camilla Liran, has much trouble in her life because of "gaming is order". She used to have quite a few friends and like to join different school clubs. However, playing video games caused serious problems to her normal life. She even argued and fought with her parents a lot because of playing video game too much.
In fact, some countries are working to solve this problem. South Korean has made a law stop children under 16 from playing online games between midnight and 6 a.m., USA Today reported.
Chinese tech company Tencent is also controlling the time that teenagers can play its games. Children between 12 and 18 years old can only play two hours every day.
1.Did WHO accept "gaming disorder" as a mental health problem?

2.What is "gaming disorder" according to the International Classification of Disease?
