Hanfu, the traditinal clthing f the Han ethnic grup, has made a cmeback in recent years. The hanfu bm has seen an increase in available styles. T satisfy the different tastes f tday’s yuth, sellers are putting a fancy spin n this ancient cstume.
Certain hanfu have a clrful reflective effect, as shiny decrative pwders are added int the clth. Mdern material like chiffn (薄绸) is als widely used in hanfu, while paillettes (亮片) have been added t the surface f the dress.

Meanwhile, fans disagree n hw ften ne shuld wear the clthing. Qingzhi wears hanfu every day, while Wu Yue, anther hanfu fan, said the clthing shuld nt be wrn daily.
In Wu’s pinin, hanfu shuld prperly g tgether with mdern living. Fr example, special ccasins like festivals and weddings are gd ccasins fr wearing hanfu. “Only with purpses can hanfu really have vitality (生命力).” she said.

I’m ttally fine with that. I nly hpe that there wn’t be any arguments, and there will be respect tward each side.”

Walls blanketed in mss (苔藓) are ppping up in majr cities, alng with prmises that they can reduce air pllutin—but can a few square metres f plant matter really deal with the smg?
A Berlin-based firm, Green City Slutins, believes s. Its mss walls, called the City Tree, are abut 4 square metres in size. Armed with Wi-Fi sensrs t mnitr the health f mss, a City Tree functins autnmusly and requires very little care. The wall cllects rainwater, which is pumped thrugh a built-in irrigatin (灌溉) system t the plants, pwered by slar energy. As a result, the firm says each City Tree is able t “eat” arund 250 grams f particulate (颗粒) matter a day (nearly 90 kgs a year) and remves abut 240 metric tns f CO2 every year. It als cls the surrunding air.
Aware that getting the surrunding air in cntact with the mss wall is necessary fr the City Tree t be effective, the inventrs make sure that the lcatin f each installatin (安装) is chsen carefully. Spts where pllutin is heavy due t traffic and where air flw is limited are picked. The imprtance f this step is explained by the fact that the waste gas frm a car generally ges up a few kilmetres int the air.
But this desn’t mean mss walls will necessarily prtect peple frm pllutin. In the Netherlands, eight walls installed in Amsterdam failed t reduce the cncentratin f particulate matter (PM) and nitrgen dixide (NO2). Their reprt cncluded that even dubling the number f mss walls wuld d little t imprve their effectiveness.
The City Tree is nt meant fr parks r t take the place f street trees, but t add greenery t cncrete-heavy spaces where planting is nt a chice. It’s imprtant t remember that street trees prvide lts f ther benefits, including shelter and habitat fr urban wildlife, shade and cling fr peple n the street, and reductin f urban heat islands.
26. What d we knw abut the City Tree?
A. It can absrb sme air pllutants.B. It can irrigate ther street plants.
C. It prduces electricity t cl water.D. It is aimed at saving water in cities.
27. What is Paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A. The imprtance f City Tree.B. The functin f City Tree.
C. Hw t perate City Tree.D. Where t place City Tree.
28. Why is the example f Amsterdam mentined in Paragraph 4?
A. T shw that City Tree can’t always wrk well.
B. T prve that City Tree can reduce air pllutants.
C. T emphasize the necessity f building mss walls.
D. T analyze the reasns fr the failure f the prgram.
29. Which statement is NOT TRUE accrding t the passage?
A. City Tree is capable f perfrming tasks autmatically.
B. The inventrs tend t install City Tree in spts with heavy pllutin.
C. Green City Slutins believes sme plant matter can deal with the smg.
D. The effectiveness f mss walls can be imprved if the number f them is dubled.
30. What is the authr’s attitude twards replacing street trees with mss walls?
A. Ambiguus.B. Disapprving.C. Supprtive.D. Cautius.
