With their stiff leaves and large flwers, brmeliads can add drama t a plant stand r windw sill. Thugh they are nt the flashiest f huseplants, sme pllutin scientists are ready t give them credit. Their new data shw these plants are experts at cleaning the air.
Paints, furniture, phtcpiers and printers, cleaning supplies and dry-cleaned clthes can all release vlatile rganic chemicals, r VOCs. Chrnic VOC expsure pses serius health risks, frm dizziness and asthma t ptential rgan damage and cancer. But certain types f greenery can suck the pllutants up, which keeps them safely away frm us. Chemist Vadud Niri’s fund that a single brmeliad can remve at least 80 percent f six different VOCs frm the air inside a 76-liter cntainer. His team tested five huseplants against eight VOCs, finding brmeliads utperfrmed thers. Only tw VOCs, dichlrmethane and trichlrmethane were ignred by all plants.
Plants absrb VOCs frm the air, explains medicinal chemist Webe Kadima. Thse gases enter thrugh tiny penings in plant leaves and stems. Once inside, the plant’s enzymes (酶) break dwn the VOCs int smaller, harmless chemicals.
Of curse, a huse, r even a bedrm, is much bigger than the cntainer Niri and his team used. But their wrk suggests peple might breathe easier if they can figure ut what type and hw many plants it takes t clean the air in a rm. This is imprtant because indr air usually has three t five times greater cncentratins f VOCs than utdr air.
Niri says he plans t test hw many huseplants it takes t clean the air in an average-size rm. After that, he will repeat the experiment in a nail saln. With bttles f nail plish and remver, the air in thse salns tends t have high levels f VOCs, he ntes.
While special air filtering machines might d the same jb as green plants, they cst a lt mre, Niri says. And they are nwhere near as pretty as a brmeliad, especially ne in blm.
28. What is ne f Niri’s findings abut brmeliads?
A. They beat machines in air cleaning. B. They lead in VOCs remval during tests.
C. They absrb mst pllutants in a rm. D. They break dwn VOCs thrugh enzymes.
29. What des Webe Kadima try t explain in paragraph 3 ?
A. The necessity t slve air pllutin. B. The pllutant remval prcess f plants.
C. The medical value f plants’ enzymes. D. The absrptin capability f different plants.
30. What will be the fcus f Niri’s research?
A. Designing cheap air-filtering device.
B. Researching blming brmeliads.
C. Repeating the tests in varius salns.
D. Testing plant perfrmance in larger space.
31. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Plants: Efficient VOCs Remver B. Enzyme: Air Pllutin Slutin
C. Brmeliads: Nature’s Air Purifier D. Nail Salns: Indr VOCs Prducer

As pressure grws t get artificial clrs ut f the U.S. fd supply, the shift may well start at Abby Tampw’s labratry desk. Tampw is part f the team at Sensient Technlgies Crp., a tp dyemaker (色素生产商), helping thusands f U.S. businesses change clrs fr prducts like cereals and sprts drinks.
Last week, U.S. health fficials annunced plans t persuade fd cmpanies t vluntarily remve petrleum-based (石油基的) artificial dyes by the end f 2026. Health Secretary Rbert F. Kennedy Jr. called them "pisnus cmpunds" that endanger children’s health and develpment, citing limited evidence f ptential health risks.
But making the change frm the petrleum-based dyes t clrs taken frm vegetables, fruits, flwers and even insects wn’t be easy, fast, r cheap, said Mnica Giusti, an Ohi State University fd clr expert. "If all cmpanies were t remve artificial clrs frm their prducts, the supply f the natural alternatives wuld nt be enugh," Giusti said.
"It’s nt like there’s 150 millin punds f beet juice sitting arund waiting n the ff chance the whle market may switch," said Paul Manning, the cmpany’s chief executive. Natural dyes are harder t make and use than artificial clrs. They are less cnsistent in clr, less stable and subject t changes related t acidity, heat, and light. Als, a natural clr csts abut 10 times mre t make than the artificial versin.
In 2016, fd giant General Mills remved artificial dyes frm Trix cereal, switching t natural surces. But the cereal lst its nen clrs and became less vibrant, resulting in cnsumers’ negative reactin. Trix fans said they missed the bright clrs and familiar taste f the cereal. In 2017, the cmpany switched back.
Kennedy, the health secretary, said U.S. fficials have an "understanding" with fd cmpanies t phase ut artificial clrs. Industry fficials tld The Assciated Press that there is n frmal agreement. Hwever, several cmpanies have said they plan t accelerate a shift t natural clrs in sme f their prducts.
32. What can be inferred abut Abby Tampw’s wrk?
A. She wrks t replace artificial clrs. B. She develps a new artificial clr.
C. She markets cereals and sprts drinks. D. She researches health risks f clrs.
33. Why are health fficials urging the remval f petrleum-based dyes?
A. T lwer the prductin csts. B. T prevent pssible health risks.
C. T prmte natural alternatives. D. T push fd cmpanies’ refrm.
34. What is paragraph 4 mainly abut?
A. Why natural dyes are hard t make. B. Which dyes are mre ppular.
C. What limitatins natural dyes have. D. Hw natural dyes are prduced.
35. What can be learned abut General Mills’ attempt?
A. Health is a tp cncern in fd cmpanies. B. Clr is a pwerful driver f cnsumer behavir.
C. Taste is the decisive factr in the fd sales. D. Surce is the pririty in fd clr research.

Sft glden light frm the autumn sun shne thrugh the tree tps as high schl students Chle and Nah walked thrugh Whispering Pines Frest in ne f their hiking trips. Their bts stepped n the fallen leaves and made a crackling sund, making them pile up. A strange nise brke the quiet - a high, sad cry, fllwed by vilent mving in the bushes. The nise came frm abut 40 meters t the suthwest, hidden by thick berry bushes full f ripe fruit.
Nah had learned abut surviving in the wild at summer camp. He held up a fist t tell Chle t stp. They listened carefully, and sn knew it was a hurt animal breathing heavily. Brken small trees and disturbed dirt shwed a messy path ahead. They mved frward very carefully, stepping sftly ver small sticks. The sunds gt mre desperate - lw cries and weak, unsteady mvements. Chle instinctively (本能地) pened the part f her backpack with first aid supplies, fingers brushing against bandage edges. "Let’s mve slw and talk quiet," Nah whispered. "Scared animals get mre frightened if we make sudden mves." He remembered what he’d learned abut animal behavir in bilgy class last semester.
As they gt clser, the frest became very quiet. Birds stpped singing in the middle f their sngs. Thrugh the shaking tall, feathery plants, they gt a quick lk at the animal’s light brwn fur, like a fast-mving shadw. A leg stuck ut at a wrng angle, twisted where it shuld be straight. Chle thught f what she knew abut first aid: the way it was psitined meant a bad injury, and they needed t stp the bleeding right away.
Nah checked his cmpass with a quick mve f his wrist; they had ninety minutes befre dusk painted the sky sft pink. "Pririty: stabilize, disinfect, retreat," he murmured (低声说), mentally ging ver the wilderness first aid steps he’d memrized. Chle ndded, clean clth already in hand, her expressin a blend f deep cncern and steady determinatin.
