【题目】 IKEA (瑞典宜家家具公司) is set to launch (上市) an air-purifying curtain coated with a mineral-based surface that breaks down common pollutants. The surface of the curtain is treated with a photocatalyst (光催化剂) mineral that causes air pollution to break down when light shines through it, allowing users to purify the air in their own homes.

The technology works in a similar way to photosynthesis - the natural process that plants and some other organisms use to change carbon dioxide and water into food, using light.

Developed over several years by IKEA in collaboration with universities across Europe and Asia, the purifying technology works with both natural and artificial light. “For me, it’s important to work on products that solve actual problems and are relevant to people,” explained IKEA product developer Mauricio Affonso. “We are creating an affordable and space-saving air purifying solution that also makes the home more beautiful,” he continued.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) has stated that even now, 91 percent of the world's population live in areas where air pollution goes over WHO guideline limits. The effects of poor air kill about seven million people worldwide each year, research by the WHO has found.

“Besides enabling people to breathe better air at home, we hope that the curtain will increase people's awareness of indoor air pollution, inspiring behavioral changes that contribute to a world of clean air,” said IKEA head of sustainability Lena Pripp-Kovac. “It is the first product to use the technology, but the development will give us opportunities for future applications on other textiles (纺织品).”

“We know that there is no single solution to air pollution. We work long term for positive change, to enable people to live healthier lives,” added Pripp-Kovac.

1What do we know about the air-purifying curtain?

A.It needs light to work.B.It keeps the pollutants out.

C.It's made from a mineral.D.It works as a photocatalyst.

2What did Mauricio Affonso think of the curtain?

A.costlyB.practical

C.power-savingD.obvious

3What’s the advantage of the curtain?

A.It helps decrease the world population.B.It purifies the air in the city.

C.It changes people’s bad habits.D.It promotes green lives.

4What is the text mainly about?

A.IKEA's profitable eco curtains.

B.IKEA's plan to decrease air pollution.

C.IKEA's efforts to make a healthier life.

D.IKEA's eco curtains to improve indoor air quality.
