4.阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题.
    A Dutch artist and environmentalist has brought a project that shows how tiny smog particles(雾霾颗粒)can be made into jewellry like rings to China.
   Dann Roosegaarde is attempting to raise public awareness of cleaning the air.He has made a Smog Free Tower,which began to operate in September,2015,in Rotterdam,the Netherlands,and he brought it to China in September,2016.The pollutants are collected from the 7-meter-high tower before being processed and condensed into cubes (压缩成立方体) measuring 4 mm to 5mm.The cubes,which can be used to make rings,are not for sale but have been presented as gifts to supporters at Kickstarter,a large crowdfunding site where Roosegaarde  collected more than 110,000  curos for his tower project.
"I bring the project to China because Beijing is Where I got the inspiration,"he said.He said he visited the city years ago and saw the huge difference in environmental conditions on good days and smoggy days,which gave him the inspiration for the project.
"But it is more than just cleaning the air,I hope the project develops public awareness of environmental protection."He said his tower project would travel around the world,visiting cities such as Paris,Los Angeles and Mexico City.
    Roosegaarde said his tower would suck in(吸入)polluted air like a huge vacuum cleaner,before removing the pollutant particles and returning clean air."It has performed well in reducing air pollutants by 75 to 80 percent in a surrounding area."Roosegaarde said.
    Liu  Guozheng,secretary-general of the China Forum of Environmental journalists,said."The Smog Free Tower is designed to be abandoned eventually,because the ultimate goal is to improve air quality to the extent that the tower will be useless."
"The tower works as a warming and reminder for people to take part in smog control efforts."Liu said.

11.What about the effect of long working hours on your weight?A new paper,written by Joelle Abramowitz,an economist,has some surprising results.She starts out by showing a simple graph:those who work longer are easy to be bigger.
That seems interesting,but is not as good as expected.After all,there may be other factors that mean that hardworking people tend to be overweight.So Ms Abramowitz uses regressions(回归),which allows her to control a variety of other factors,like income.Her results have a few surprises:those with a college degree are likely to be slimmer(苗条).Rather depressingly,marriage results in women getting thinner,but men fatter.
She shows that for workers in"non-strenuous(不繁重的)"jobs,like secretarial work and accountancy,ten additional hours spent working per week are connected with an increase in body size index 0.4for women and 0.2for men.That translates,on average,into an increase of 2.5pounds and 1.4pounds respectively(各自地).Unsurprisingly,for those whose jobs require a bit of physical effort,the effect no longer holds.
So why do long hours result in weight gain?Only 20% of American jobs are even mildly stressful,compared to 50% in 1960.In 1960,a tenth of the American workforce was involved in agriculture,but today it's more like 1%.More time at the desk means less movement.Busy people may have less time to prepare good meals,instead choosing a take-away.( management consultants,in my experience at least,tend to be rather knowledgeable about fancy restaurants near them).They exercise less.And workaholics sleep less:inadequate shut-eye is associated with weight gain.
Women gain more weight than men,Ms abramowitz reasons,because they tend to replace work for health-improving activities like exercise.However,men are prettysedentary,whether or not they work long hours.So maybe desk-jobbers should include a bit of physicality in the daily hard work.Standing up while working is one choice.
32.What can we know about Joelle Abramowitz's graph?D
A.The author thinks it's puzzling.
B.Many people don't think it's good.
C.It includes many factors on fatness
D.It shows people working long put on more weight.
33.What kind of people tends to put on weight according to the passage?C
A.People who feel depressed.
B.People who have college degrees.
C.People who work on secretarial work.
D.people who often eat in fancy restaurants
34.Compared to the past,A.
A.Americans are fatter because of lack of exercise
B.Americans are fatter because of improvement of life
C.Americans become fatter because of less stressful work
D.Americans men are more likely to put on weight than women.
35.What's the meaning of the underlined word"sedentary"in paragraph 5?B
A.Hard-working.B.Inactive     C.Thoughtful    D.Changeable.
