36、 by no means thebiggest source of plastic pollution,but theyve recently come under fire because mostpeople dont need them to drink with and,because of their small size and weight,theycannot be recycled.可知，塑料吸管最近已经受到了抨击，由于它们体积小并且重量轻，所以不能被回收利用。故 选A。30.B 推理判断题。本题询问艺术作品“Truckload of Plastic”对观看者有什么影响。根据

47、的“Thats why I have a membershipat the co-working space across the street-so I can focus.”可知，采访者是街对面的共享工作空间的会员，在那里他能集中精力。所以，那位采访者更喜欢共享工作空间的原因是那里有助于他集中精力。故 选A。33.C I细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“the participants in the 70decibels group-those exposed to a level of noise similar to background chatter in acoffee shops
