Pollution occurs whenever unnatural substances are introduced into an environment. Most

ocean pollution caused by humans are concentrated along the 【M1】______ coasts of continents. Lets see what some of the pollutants are. Industrial wastes sometimes get to seawater. Often, 【M2】______ these contain(concentrations)of metals and chemicals that harm organisms. Solid wastes, such as plastic bags and fishing line left lying on the beaches, can entangle in animals. Medical waste such as needles, plastic 【M3】______ tubing, and bags are a threat to both humans and animals. Pesticides, which include herbicides(weed killers) and insecticides(insect killers), used in farming reaching the ocean as runoff. They become 【M4】______ concentrating in the tissues of marine organisms. 【M5】______ Crop fertilizers and human sewage create a different kind of problem. They fertilize the water. This causes some types of algae to produce very rapidly. 【M6】______ When these algae die, theyre decomposed by huge amount of bacteria. The problem is that the bacteria use 【M7】______ up much of the oxygen in the water during respiration. However, other organisms such as fish cant get the 【M8】______ oxygen they need, and they die. Oil spills also pollute the ocean. Youve heard in the news about major oil spills caused to tanker 【M9】______ collisions, and leaks at offshore oil wells. Another source of oil pollution is oil mixed with wastewater thats pumped out of ships. In addition to these resources, oil discarded from cars and industries is 【M10】______ sometimes dumped into streams. It, too, eventually reaches the ocean.

Light Night, Dark Stars

Thousands of people around the globe step outside to gaze at their night sky. On a clear night, with no clouds, moonlight, or artificial lights to block the view, people can see more than 14,000 stars in the sky, says Dennis Ward, an astronomer(天文学家) with the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) in Boulder, Colo. But when people are surrounded by city lights, he says, they're lucky to see 150 stars.

If you've ever driven toward a big city at night and seen its glow from a great distance, you've witnessed light pollution. It occurs when light from streetlights, office buildings, signs, and other sources streams into space and illuminates(照亮) the night sky. This haze(薄雾) of light makes many stars invisible to people on Earth. Even at night, big cities like New York glow from light pollution, making stargazing difficult.

Dust and particles of pollution from factories and industries worsen the effects of light pollution. "If one city has a lot more light pollution than another", Ward says, "that city will suffer the effects of light pollution on a much greater scale".

Hazy skies also make it far more difficult for astronomers to do their jobs.

Cities are getting larger. Suburbs are growing in once dark, rural areas. Light from all this new development is increasingly obscuring(使变模糊) the faint(微弱的) light given off by distant stars. And if scientists can't locate these objects, they can't learn more about them.

Light pollution doesn't only affect star visibility. It can harm wildlife too. It's clear that artificial light can attract animals, making them go off course. There's increasing evidence, for example, that migrating(迁徙) birds use sunsets and sunrises to help find their way, says Sydney Gauthreaux Jr., a scientist at Clemson University in South Carolina. "When light occurs at night", he says, "it has a very disruptive(破坏性的) influence". Sometimes birds fly into lighted towers, high-rises, and cables from radio and television towers. Experts estimate that millions of birds die this way every year.

On a clear night, people can see______

A.150 stars.

B.hundreds of stars.

C.one thousand stars.

D.more than 14,000 stars.

根据以下材料,回答题Air PollutionThere is no question that the old style. of air pollution

根据以下材料,回答题

Air Pollution

There is no question that the old style. of air pollution could kill people. In one week following the infamous "peasouper" fog in December 1952,4,700 people died in London. Most of these people were elderly and already had heart or lung diseases. A series of these killer fogs eventually led to the British Parliament passing the Clean Air Act which restricted the burning of coal.

Fortunately, the effect of smog on the lungs is not so dramatic. Scientists have now conducted a number of laboratory experiments in which volunteers are exposed to ozone inside a steel chamber for a few hours. Even at quite low concentrations there is a rewrsible fall in lung function,an increase in the irritability of the lungs and evidence of airway inflammation. Although irritable and inflamed lungs are particularly seen in people with asthma(哮喘 )and other lung diseases, theseeffects of ozone also occur in healthy subjects. Similar changes are also seen after exposure to nitrogen dioxide, although there is some disagreement about the concentration at which they occur.

Other studies have found that people living in areas with high levels of pollution have more symptoms and worse lung function than those living in areas with clean air. Groups of children attending school camps show falls in lung function even at quite low concentrations of ozone.

There is also a relationship between ozone levels and hospital admissions for asthma, both in North America and Australia. It is suspected that long-term exposure to smog may result in chronic bronchitis (支气管炎) and emphysema (肺气肿) , but this has yet to be proven.

Recently an association has been found between the levels of particles in the air and death rates in North American cities. The reason for this association is not understood and as yet there is no evidence this occurs in Australia. However, we do know that hazy days are associated with more asthma attacks in children.

Which of the following is NOT the result of laboratory experience? 查看材料

A.Low concentrations.

B.Fall in lung function.

C.Irritability of the lungs.

D.Airway inflammation.

A useful definition of an air pollutantis a compound added directly or indirectly by humans to the atmospherein suchquantities as to affect humans, animals, vegetation, or material adversely (有害地). Air pollution requires avery flexibledefinition that permits continuous change.
