Question

11．Most 20-year-olds are still trying to figure out what they want to do in life．Boyan Slat is not like that．Ever-since he was 16 years old，the Dutch teenager has had one mission 一 to clean up the trillions of pieces of plastic that are polluting our oceans and killing precious marine life．What's amazing is that this young man who started with what sounded like a strange dream may actually be able to complete this huge task!
    Slat's first exposure to ocean garbage came during a diving vacation in Greece．The teenager was astonished to see that there was more plastic on the beaches than fishes in the sea．Upon completing high school，he stated to pursue his lifelong dream of becoming an Aerospace Engineer．However，he could never remove the images of the plastic debris from his mind．
    So in 2013，Slat dropped out of college and established The Ocean Cleanup Foundation．Its mission was to create an environmentally friendly large-scale and efficient way to remove the plastic pollution from aquatic ecosystems （水生生態(tài)系統(tǒng)），while increasing awareness by communicating this process intensively．
    Within a year，the determined youngster and his team of 100 volunteer scientists and engineers from around the world managed to come up with a 530-page study that laid out the technology and the financial needs for such a concept to be practical．
    Called the"Ocean Cleanup Project"，it did not require chasing after every piece of floating plastic．Instead，the plan focused on the five"garbage"patches that have been accumulated by ocean currents or gyres（渦流） in specific areas．According to experts，the five have about 5.25 trillion of the 8 trillion pieces of plastic estimated to be floating around the world's oceans today．
    Slat's team thought that if we create a stationary （固定的）collection area around each one，the plastic could be picked up in an economicaJ and efficient manner．The plan was convincing enough to help the team raise close to﹩2.2million in a crowdfunding campaign．

56．What has Boyan Slat dreamed of doing since he was 16？（No more than 10 words）
Cleaning up the trillions of pieces of plastic．
57．Why was Boyan Slat surprised during a diving vacation in Greece？（No more than 10 words）He saw more plastic than fishes．
58．What was Boyan Slat's purpose of establishing The Ocean Cleanup Foundation？（No more than 15 words）
To create an environmentally friendly large-scale and efficient way to remove the plastic pollution．
59．How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph？（No more than 15 words）The plan was so convincing that a lot of people supported it．
60．What do you think of Boyan Slat's action？Give your reasons．（No more than 20 words）It is admirable，because it help protect the environment where we live．
