One out of every six Americans works at putting together the parts of cars, driv

11、ing trucks, building roads or filling cars and trucks with gas. Americans wont live without cars!Most Americans would find it hard to think what life could look like without a car. However, some have realized the serious problem of the air pollution that is caused by the car. The polluted air become

12、s poisonous (有毒)and dangerous to health.One way to get rid of the polluted car is to build a car that does not pollute. Thats what several of the large car factories have been trying to do. But to build a clean car is easier said than done. Progress in this field(领域) has been slow.Another way is to

13、take the place of the car engineby something else. Inventors are now working on steam cars as well as electric cars. Many makers believe that it will take years to develop a practical model that pleases man.To prevent the world from being polluted by car, well have to make some changes in the way ma

14、ny of us live. Americans, for example, have to cut down on the number of their total cars. They are encouraged to travel and to go to work by bicycle. Bicycling is thought to help keep the air clean.But this change doesnt come easily. A large number of workers may find themselves without jobs if a c

15、ar factory closes down. Thus the problem of air pollution would become less important than that of unemployment(失业).Although cars have led us to a better life, they have also brought us new problems.1、How many ways to get rid of air pollution are suggested in this article by the writer?AOne BTwoCThr

18、save lives, but it doesnt save money,” reported researchers. “It was a small surprise, for it is against the common belief,” said Pieter van Baal, who led the study. “But it makes sense. If you live longer, then your costs of the health system will be more.”The researchers found that from age 20 to

19、56, obese people racked up (累计) the most expensive health costs. But on average, healthy people lived 84 years. Smokers lived about 77 years, and obese people lived about 80 years. Smokers and obese people tended to have more heart disease than healthy people. Therefore in the long run, the thin and

20、 healthy group spent about $ 417,000, from age 20 on. Smokers spent about $ 326,000 and obese people $ 371,000.“The result throws a bucket of cold water onto the idea, based on guesswork, that obesity is going to cost trillions of dollars,” said Patrick Basham, a professor of health politics. “If we

21、re going to worry about the future of obesity, we should stop worrying about its financial impact,” he said.“The benefits of obesity prevention may not be seen immediately in terms of cost saving in tomorrows budget, but there are long-term gains,” said Baal. “These are often immeasurable when it co

22、mes to people living longer and healthier lives.” In the meanwhile, he said that governments should recognize that successful smoking and obesity prevention programs mean that people will have a higher chance of dying of something more expensive later in life.“Lung cancer is a cheap disease to treat

23、 because people dont survive very long. But if they are old enough to get Alzheimers (早老性痴呆病) one day, they may survive longer and cost more. We are not advising that governments stop trying to prevent obesity,” Baal said. “But they should do it for the right reasons.”1、Among middle-aged people, who

Be very afraid,” says a character in The Fly, a

34、horror film about a man who turns into an enormous insect. It captures the unease and disgust people often feel for the kingdom of cockroaches, Zika-carrying mosquitoes and creepy crawlies of all kinds. However, ecologists increasingly see the insect world as something to be frightened for, not frig

35、htened of. In the past two years, scores of scientific studies have suggested that trillions of murmuring, droning, honeybees, butterflies and beetles are dying off. “If all mankind were to disappear”, wrote E.O.Wilson, a respectable entomologist, “the world would regenerate If insects were to vanis

36、h, the environment would collapse into chaos.”Most of the studies describe declines of 50% and more over decades in different measures of insect health. The immediate reaction is shock. Insects enable plants to reproduce, through pollination (授粉), and are food for other animals, so a collapse in the

37、ir numbers would be catastrophic.But a second look leads to a different assessment. Rather than causing a panic, the studies should act as a timely warning and a reason to take precautions. That is because the worst fears are unproven. There are no studies at all of wild insect numbers in most of th

38、e world. Reliable data are too scarce to declare a global emergency.Moreover, where the evidence does show a collapsein Europe and Americaagricultural and rural ecosystems are holding up. Farm production still remains high. As some insect species die out, others seem to be moving into the niches (生态

39、位) they have left, keeping ecosystems going, although with less biodiversity than before. It is hard to argue that insect decline is yet causing significant economic damage.But there are complications. Agricultural productivity is not the only measure of environmental health. Animals have value, ind

40、ependent of any direct economic contribution they may make. The more species make up an ecosystem, the more stable it is likely to be. The extinction of a few insect species among so many might not make a big difference. The loss of hundreds of thousands would.And the scale of the observed decline r

41、aises doubts about how long ecosystems can remain resilient (能复原的). An experiment in which researchers gradually pulled out insect pollinators from fields found that plant diversity held up well until about 90% of insects had been removed. Then it collapsed. Given the lack of data, it is impossible

42、to know how close Europe and America are to an ecosystem collapse. But it would be reckless to find out by actually triggering one.1、What does the underlined sentence in the first paragraph imply?AEcologists have long been afraid of those disgusting insects.BEcologists are worried about the disappea

43、rance of some insects.CEcologists have already got rid of the prejudiced feeling about insects.DEcologists are respectful of the insects ability to regenerate themselves.2、What conclusion can we draw from the studies conducted in the past 2 years?AThough there is a decline in the number of insects,

44、we still have the reason to be optimistic.BBiodiversity can cause immediate damage so that we should take precautions right away.CData collected from all over the world is convincing to prove our environment is at risk.DThe consequence of decreasing biodiversity may be more serious than we can imagi

46、e traffic jams, the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel. It is all right to have a tiger in a cage, but to have one in the drivers seat is another matter altoget

47、her.Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense too. It takes the most cool-headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving. On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fight

48、ing. A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and calm so necessary in modern traffic condition. But such behaviors of politeness are by no means enough. Many drivers nowadays dont even seem able to recognize politeness when they

49、 see it.However, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous. Typical examples are the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may be not able to stop in time. The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever th

50、ey want to. It always amazes me that the highways are not covered with the dead bodies of these grannies (奶奶).An experienced driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant f

51、eelings. Unfortunately, modern drivers cant even learn to drive. Years ago, experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand moregive-and-takefrom all road users. It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.1、According to the passage, trouble on the road are

52、 often caused by _.Aroad conditionsBthe speed of modern lifeCthe large number of carDthe behavior of the drivers2、In the writers opinion, _.Adrivers should show road politeness properlyBstrict traffic rules are badly neededCunskillful drivers should be punishedDdrivers should avoid traffic jams3、The
