In 1900, the main causes of death were diseases that were spread by bacteria (细菌 ) and viruses (病毒 ). If you had lived then, the danger of your dying from pneumonia (肺炎 ) would have been

14、 three times greater than the danger of your dying from cancer. The diseases that were most common in 1900 affected people of all ages.

15、d or cured by improved medicines and methods of sanitation (卫生 ). Most diseases now are likely to occur later in life. You as a teenager will probably not have to think about the same threats to your health as your grandparents did. These improvements in health conditions mean that not only can you

16、now enjoy a better life, but you also have a greater chance of having a longer life. Controlling diseases has in-creased the life expectancy in the United States.

23、he basis for life on Earth, and we must take care of it.

When the catch drops below the cost of op

28、erating expenses, the industry will die, taking the health of the ocean with it. We will then all stand back and wonder why we let it happen. Now match the name of each person (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements. Statements A Overfishing results from extensi

29、ve use of new technologies. B Many people in my place support stricter regulation on fishing. C I think that you failed to point out the real reason for overfishing.
