Air pollution can spread from city to city. It even spreads from one country to another. Some northern European countries have had "black snow" from pollutants that have traveled through the air from other countries and have fallen with the snow. So air pollution is a global problem.

In 1948 in a small town of Pennsylvania, 20 people died in a four - day period of air pollution. As often found in cities, air pollution increas the risks of l

Passage 2
1、 Pubs are suppod to be the Englishman's favorite meeting place, where he can get together with a few friends over a pint of beer and talk about football, or hor racing, or business.
You may notice that the pub is the place for men, but not for women. Even now it is still not quite respectable for a woman to go into a pub alone; she must have a man to escort(护卫) and protect her. Perhaps that is partly why pubs depress me - they are inten
ded mainly to provide for male interests, which are often pretty narrow. I think this male-dominated atmosphere also reminds me of my life back at school, or in the army, neither of which is an experience I much want to relive.
However, I'm obviously in the minority. Most Englishmen have their local pubs, where they can escape from the pressures of family life or work, and if they are lucky, tell their troubles to a pretty barmaid. Indeed, many men dream of retiring from their 9 - 5 jobs and buying a little country pub, where they imagine they'll be the host of a ven-night-a-week party. This dream usually dies when cleaning up spilled beer at one o'clock in the morning.
Still, there's pub for every type of man, from the city sophisticate to the rural primitive, and a man for every type of pub. And I must admit that, for someone who doesn't like them, I spent a lot of time in pubs of various kinds.
(1)、For what do Englishmen go to the pubs?
A：They go there to make friends.
B：They go to meet and talk with their friends over some beer.
C：They go there to e the pretty barmaid.
D：They go there to do business dealings.
答案： B

Passage 3
1、 A million tourists go to Barcelona every year. They want to e Antonio Gaude's church. This unusual church has a strange history. Gaude was born in Spain in 1852. He had to work and study at the same time. He often misd class becau he had to work, but one day he designed a very unusual show-ca for an exhibition in Paris. People began to give him work. He designed hous, offices and gardens. They were all very unusual. He was soon rich and famous. Then a rich bookller said, "Will you build a church for the poor people of Barcelona? I will pay. I will build schools and workshops, too. They will help the people." "I will do it," said Gaudi. He worked for forty years, but he could not finish the church. It was too big. He needed $10,000,000. He gave all his money to the church. He was poor again when he died in 1926, and only the front of the church was finished. But architects, engineers and tourists from all over the world come to e it. It is very strange, very modern and very revolutionary.
