Passage One The fourth round of heavy smog that hit Beijing in four weeks has nt more people to the hospital with respiratory(呼吸的) illness and led to calls for laws to control the pollution.
Pan Shiyi, a real estate developer, said he is planning to propo(提出) a Clean Air Act to the local government. As a reprentative of the Beijing Municipal People’s Congress, he started an online survey at 9:20 am. Within three hours，more than 25,000 web urs, or 99 percent of total respondents, welcomed his proposal on Sina Weibo, China’s Twitter.
They have good reasons to stand alongside Pan. The latest round of haze(雾霾) reduced visibility to under 500 meters in many parts of the city. The smog has also led to a great increa in respiratory illness, particularly among children and the elderly. Anxious parents and doctors about all blame the smoggy air for the illness. Though most schoolchildren are home for the winter holidays, the bad air can easily move indoors. Besides, ordinary medical masks fail to provide adequate protection, so some people have turned to gas masks and respirators(呼吸器).
The caus of the scary smog are rather mysterious, though experts blame excessive emissions and the mountains around Beijing that trap pollution in winter, unless there is adequate wind to clear it away. Some critics have pointed fingers at China’s top two oil firms, China National Petroleum Corp and China Petrochemical Corporation, saying the companies’outdated production technologies produce large quantities of substandard, highpolluting gas fuel.
Meanwhile, concerned Beijingers have moved their brainstorming ssions to cyberspace. If Pan’s proposal for a Clean Air Act is adopted, netizens say the new law should include items providing for “carfree days”in times of smog, higher standards for vehicle fuel, stricter restrictions on industrial and exhaust gas emissions，and more effective protection for the public.
Beijing is not the only city that has ever lost the blue sky.Five days of thick fog caud thousands of deaths in Britain in December 1952, urging the government to pass the first Clean Air Act in 1956, which introduced smokeless zones and cleaner fuels to reduce pollution.That may provide some experience for Beijing to refer to.
C-1.Why did Pan Shiyi started an online survey?
超兽武装冥王语录A.To investigate the public’s opinions on pollution.
B.To tell people the danger of the smoggy weather.
C.To call on more people to support his proposal.

Passage Three
I recently heard a story about a famous rearch scientist who had made veral very important medical achievements. A newspaper reporter interviewed him why he was able to be so much more creative than the average person. What t him so far apart from others?
He responded that it all came from an experience with his mother that occurred when he was about two years old. He had been trying to remove a bottle of milk from the refrigerator when he dropped the slippery bottle, spilling its contents all over the kitchen floor—a real a of milk!
When his mother came into the kitchen，instead of shouting at him, giving him a lecture or punishin
g him, she said, “Robert, what a great and wonderful mess you have made! I have rarely en such a huge pool of milk. Well, the damage has already been done. Would you like to get down and play in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up?”
Indeed, the boy did. After a few minutes, his mother said, “You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, eventually you have to clean it up and restore everything to its proper order. How would you like to do that? We could u a sponge(海绵), a towel or a mop. Which do you prefer?”He cho the sponge and together they cleaned up the spilled milk.油菜霜霉病
His mother then said, “You know，what we have here is a failed experiment
in how to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands. Let’s go out in the back yard and fill the bottle with water and e if you can find a way to carry it without dropping it. ”The little boy learned that if he grasped the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could make it. What a wonderful lesson!
This famous scientist then said that it was at that moment that he knew he didn’t need to be afraid to make mistakes.
