in fact the accident rate of workers in the chemical industry is less than that of almost any of human activity, and almost as safe as staying at home. the trouble with the chemical industry is that when things go wrong they often cause death to those living nearby. it is this that chemical accidents so newsworthy. fortunately, they are extremely rare. the most famous ones happened at texas city (1947), flixborough (1974), seveso (1976), pemex (1984) and bhopal (1984). some of these are always in the minds of the people even though the loss of life was small. no one died at seveso, and only 28 workers at flixborough. the worst accident of all was bhopal, where up to 3,000 were killed. the texas city explosion of fertilizer killed 552. the pemex fire at a storage plant for natural gas in the suburbs of mexico city took 542 lives, just a month before the unfortunate event at bhopal. some experts have discussed these accidents and used each accident to illustrate a particular danger. thus the texas city was caused by tons of ammonium nitrate, which is safe unless stored in a great quantity. the flixborough fireball was the fault of management, which took risks to keep production going during essential repairs. the seveso accident shows what happens if the local authorities lack knowledge of the danger on their doorstep. when the poisonous gas drifted over the town, local leaders were incapable of taking effective action. the pemex fire was made worse by an overloaded site in an overcrowded suburb. the fire set off a chain reaction of exploding storage tanks. yet, by a miracle, the two largest tanks did not explode. had these caught fire, then 3,000 strong rescue team and fire fighters would all have died. 1. according to the passage, the chemical accident that caused by the fault of management happened at _. a. texas city b. flixborough c. seveso d. mexico city2. which of the following statements is true?a. working at the office is safer than staying at home. b. travelling to work on public transport is safer than working at the office. c. staying at home is safer than working in the chemical industry. d. working in the chemical industry is safer than traveling by air. 3. from the passage we know that ammonium nitrate is a kind of _. a. natural gas, which can easily catch fire b. fertilizer, which cant be stored in a great quantity c. poisonous substance, which cant be used in overcrowded areas d. fuel, which is stored in large tanks 4. from the discussion among some experts we may conclude that _. a. to avoid any accident we should not repair the facilities in chemical industry b. the local authorities should not be concerned with the production of thechemical industry c. all these accidents could have been avoided or controlled if effective measureshad been taken d. natural gas stored in very large tanks is always safe【参考答案】14、bdbc阅读理解。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的a.b.c和d项中，选出最佳选项。 phil white has just returned from an 18,000mile, aroundtheworld bicycle trip. white had two reasons for making this epic journey. first of all, he wanted to use the trip to raise money for charity, which he did. he raised 70,000 for the british charity, oxfam. whites second reason for making the trip was to break the world record and become the fastest person to cycle around the world. he is still waiting to find out if he has broken the record or not. white set off from trafalgar square, in london, on 19th june 2004 and was back 299 days later. he spent more than 1,300 hours in the saddle (车座) and destroyed four sets of tyres and three bike chains. he had the adventure of his life crossing europe, the middle east, india, asia, australia, new zealand and the americas. amazingly, he did all of this with absolutely no support team. no jeep carrying food, water and medicine. no doctor. nothing!
