“It can't be done.” Boyan Slat heard this over and over when he first suggested a way to clean up millions of tons of plastic that pollutes our oceans.
Slat was on a diving trip in Greece three years ago when he was troubled by plastic. “There were more plastic bags than fishes,” he says. “That moment I realised it was a huge problem and that environmental problems are really the biggest problems we will face.”
That fall, Slat decided to study plastic pollution as part of a high school project. Soon, Slat learned that no one had yet thought of useful ways to clean up all the rubbish. Most people wanted to “fish” up the plastic using ships with nets—which might need more than 1,000 years, cost too much, and leave sea life along with the rubbish.
Slat decided to avoid these problems: a solar-powered system using a moving plastic tube(管) which will go around the rubbish and collect it. Wind and waves will push the rubbish to the tube. A ship will pick up the rubbish and take it back to the land.
Slat organised a team of volunteers for the Ocean Clean-up, which has about 100 members.
Over the next three to four years, Slat will continue testing if his project is good enough.

答案
四、1. plastic; polluting 根据第一段中"Boyan Slat heard this over and over when he first suggested a way to clean up millions of tons of plastic that pollutes our oceans."可知,Boyan Slat第一次提出一种清理海洋的数百万吨塑料来阻止污染海洋的方式。"塑料"可用plastic来表示;动词短语stop doing sth.意为"阻止做某事","污染"是动词pollute,其现在分词形式为polluting。
2. fewer; than 根据第二段中"Slat was on a diving trip in Greece three years ago when he was troubled by plastic. 'There were more plastic bags than fishes,' he says."可知,三年前,Slat在希腊潜水时,受到了塑料的困扰。塑料袋比鱼还多说明鱼比塑料袋少,应用"fewer ... than ..."表示"比……更少"。
3. centuries; much 根据第三段中"Most people wanted to 'fish' up the plastic using ships with nets-which might need more than 1,000 years, cost too much, and leave sea life along with the rubbish."可知,用渔网清理需要1 000多年,而且花费很高。1 000多年是10个多世纪。
4. pushed; tube 根据第四段中"Slat decided to avoid these problems: a solar-powered system using a moving plastic tube which will go around the rubbish and collect it. Wind and waves will push the rubbish to the tube."可知,Slat希望风和海浪可以把垃圾推进管子里。would后用动词原形;the rubbish和动词push构成逻辑上的动宾关系,用被动语态。
5. take; go 根据最后一段"Over the next three to four years, Slat will continue testing if his project is good enough."可知,Slat将会花费三到四年去继续测试他的项目是否足够好。will后面用动词原形;go on doing sth.意为"继续做某事"。
6. He is creative and hard-working.(答案不唯一)
