5. plants that absorb smog yeah, right. plants vs smog. it is scientifically justified (证明) that some plants doabsorb pollutants(污染物)from the air. many plants and calla lilies are among the best-sellersin the market. even if they dont work, its good to have some plants in the house anyway.29. according to the passage, smog _ . a. encourages people to run away from it b. keeps people stay indoors day and night c. gives businessmen chances to make money d. has nothing to do with the economy30. salt lamps are useless, because . a. its high boiling point may cause a big fire b. people dont know how to increase its low boiling point c. it may make the air even worse and dirtier d. it actually cant give off the negative ions31. how many products does the author think of as useful ways to fight against the smog?a. two. b. three . c. four. d. five.【答案】29.c30.d31.a【解析】试题分析: 雾霾天气给人们的健康造成危害，却给商家带来机会，作者例举了和大雾有关的产品，一一说明它们的功能，和是否真的有用。29.c细节理解题。从文章第一段的句子：with the crazy smog going on in china, businessmen are now ready to grope for your wallet.可知大雾给商人带来了机会，故选c30.d细节理解题。从第五段的句子：so how on earth can negative ions be released at only 500 degrees?可知盐灯是没有用的，因为它实际上不能释放负离子，故选d31.a细节理解题。从文章的内容：可知作者认为口罩，空气净化器，和植物都是能够对大雾有用的，所以是3种，选b考点：考查说明文阅读d every day our life is full of images, videos, music and news. in this age of visual andaural hyperstimulation（视听的高度刺激），the medium of radio is making a markedcomeback. “were at the dawn of a golden age of audio, said us-based podcaster alex blumberg inan article in the sydney morning herald. in the last month alone, 15 percent of us adultslistened to a radio podcast. these data, released by edison research, reveal the successfulevolution of traditional radio broadcasts to the present days digital podcast format（播客形式）. the term podcast, was coined in 2004, but the trend only started gaining mainstreampopularity in recent years. since the leap in consumer demand for smart phones and tablets,podcast subscription rates have only accelerated. you can tune in during those extra minutes of the day when youre walking to the shops,waiting in a queue or riding the subway. similar to television shows, podcasts are generallyfree to download on computer or ipod and most offer new content every week. donna jackson, 22, sydney university media graduate, listens to podcasts two or threetimes a week, via-itunes. i listen while im hanging out in the house doing something else.it makes completing a boring task a lot more enjoyable. and its an easy way of keeping intouch with whats going on in the rest of the world, she said. “i mainly listen to bbcpodcasts, but recently ive also been tuning into this american life and serial.” unlike television and music, the audio format has the ability to create a deep impressionon readers. blumberg says this comes down to the podcasts ability to create emotionalconnection. sydney university undergraduate hazel proust, major in social work and arts,agrees. when youre tuned in, it feels as if the podcaster is talking directly to you. itscomforting, said proust. it seems the age-old tradition of verbal（口头的）storytelling is very much alive and well.32. according to the passage, which of the following is not a suitable time to listen to procasts ?
