With its help, plastics can be turned into smaller parts and go away quickly. Scientists believe that, in the future, it could solve the problem of plastic pollution.The enzyme is able to break down PET, a form of plastic. PET was first made in the 1940s and is now widely used to make plastic bottles. It can remain in the environment for many years and pollute large areas of land and water. So it has always been a headache to deal with the waste from PET and other plastics.The researchers made the discovery(发 现) while examining the structure of a natural enzyme in Japan. They found that the natural enzyme was helping to break down PET plastics. So, they decided to make small changes to the enzyme by adding some amino acids(氨基酸). It made the natural enzymes plastic-eating abilities work faster and better.John McGeehan, one of the lead researchers, said, Weve made an improved enzyme. Its better than the naturl one. And we are trying to make more improvements to it. He went on.The enzyme is not harmful to humans or animals, and it is friendly to the environment. So we are considering putting it into wider use.The team is now trying to make the enzyme break down PET in large quantities(大量的). Well see that the plastic pollution may be stopped with this technology. However, there is still a long way to go, John McGeehan added.（1）According to the scientists, the enzyme may solve the problem of pollution. A . airB . waterC . lightD . plastic（2）The underlined phrase break down in the passage probably means in Chinese. A . 实验B . 生产C . 发明D . 分解（3）Researchers discovered that a natural enzyme helped eat plastics . A . inB . in the USC . in JapanD . in China（4）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A . The scientists are still trying to improve the enzyme.B . The enzyme will pollute large areas of land and water.C . The natural enzyme woks better than the improved one.D . The natural enzyme is harmful to humans and animals.19. （8分）阅读理解 Franz Schubert was a famous musician in the world. But he lived a very hard life and often went hungry.
