• 1．Greatest Scientists of All TimeAlbert Einstein

  Marie Curie
     Born Maria Salomea Sklodowska in 1867 in Warsaw，Poland，she lived a hard life in her youth.In 1903，Curie，her husband and Becquerel won the Nobel Prize in Physics for their work on radioactivity，making Curie the first woman to win a Nobel.In 1911 Curie won her second Nobel Prize，this time in chemistry，for her work with polonium and radium.She remains the only person to win Nobel prizes in two different sciences.
  Ada Lovelace
     Ada Lovelace earned her place in history as the first computer programmer - a full century before today's computers appeared.She couldn't have done it without British mathematician，inventor and engineer Charles Babbage.Their cooperation started in the early 1830s，when Lovelace was just 17.Babbage thought Lovelace threw her magic around the most abstract of Sciences and has grasped it with a force which few male intellects（知识分子） could have placed over it.
  Nikola Tesla
     We owe much of our modern electrified life to the lab experiments of Nikola Tesla，the Serbian-American engineer，born in 1856 in what's now Croatia.His designs advanced alternating current（交流电）at the start of the electric age ，powering American homes across the country.He developed the Tesla coil - a high-voltage transformer（高压变压器）- and techniques to convey power wirelessly.Cellphone makers（and others）are just now using the potential of this idea.

• 3．CTK Bio Canada（the "Company"）has developed a new bioplastic resin（树脂） designed to degrade（break down）by both industrial and home compostin（堆制肥料），as well as in unmanaged environments like soil and seawater，in order to reduce microplastic pollution.The Company is now undertaking detailed experimental trials with academic partners to further strengthen and prove its technology ahead of expected commercial release in 2022，meanwhile a temporary patent（专利）has been applied for.
     Over 360 million tons of plastic waste are now produced every year，with only 9% of that being recycled.CTK Bio Canada is aiming to replace conventional plastic used for packaging with a safer，more sustainable（可持续的） choice.
     Bioplastics currently account for only 1% of global plastic production，and much of this requires specialized composting equipment in order to break them down.High costs，issues with production equipment，and poor long-term steady state have also limited the broader commercial consumption of bioplastics.
     Now，CTK Bio Canada founded by JK Park and Daniel Shum believes they have found a solution.The company is the new Canadian subsidiary（附属公司）of Korean cosmetic giant CTK Cosmetics（"CTK"）.In a push to reduce their environmental footprint，CTK has paid much for the research being done by the Canadian team. "CTK shares our vision for the future of the packaging industry，and has been a perfect fit.""Canada has tremendous strength in the bioresources sector，giving us a real competitive edge，" said Park，CEO of CTK Bio Canada. "The goals we set for ourselves were high，so we wanted to work with the very best in the field to produce a material that could do better than what was currently on the market."
  
  （1）Why is the new bioplastic resin developed？

  
  A．To degrade it by home composting.
  B．To prove its technology.
  C．To conduct detailed experimental trials.
  D．To reduce microplastic pollution.
  （2）How many tons of plastic waste is recycled？

  
  A．360，000，000.
  B．32，400，000.
