30、 are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center. 30 On cold days in Delhi, the poor light bonfires (篝火 ) of tyres, trees and rags whose fumes mix with the exhaust from the citys 2 million vehicles to form a thick

31、 smog. On most days in Mexico City, a blanket of pollution cuts off views of the surrounding mountains. On one famous occasion it got so bad that birds fell dead out of the sky on to the Zocalo, the citys main square. Throughout the developing world, smogs in many big cities are getting worse as mor

32、e people use cars and more manufacturing firms are belching out (喷出 ) pollution. Congestion is on the rise, too- according to one estimate, a car in Bangkok now spends the equivalent of 40 days a year stuck in traffic. The air in Asias cities, like the water in its rivers, is particularly unhealthy,

33、 containing levels of dust and smoke several times higher than in the rich countries cities. Environmentalists in the developed world also worry about air pollution in poorer countries, not just out of the goodness of their hearts but because they fear it may affect their own backyard. Carbon-dioxid

34、e emissions, thought to be the cause of global warming, are growing particularly fast in developing countries. So are emissions of sulphur dioxide, blamed for acid rain, which sometimes falls hundreds of miles from the source of the pollution. But the harm that air pollution causes in the developing

35、 countries themselves is much more serious and immediate. The biggest concern are indoor air pollution, lead emissions and small particles. Indoor pollution in poor countries is not much talked about, but it is often as damaging to health as smoking cigarettes. Around a third of all energy consumed

36、in developing countries comes from wood, crop residues and dung, which are often burnt in poorly designed stoves within ill-ventilated (通风很差的 ) huts. Studies of women in India and Nepal exposed to smoke from such fuels show that their death rates from chronic respiratory disease are similar to those

37、 of heavy smokers. Lead has long been known to be dangerous in large doses. But only since the 1970s have scientists been aware that relatively small quantities of lead in the bloodstream can be harmful to humans. In particular, many studies show a correlation between levels of lead in childrens blo

38、od and lower IQ scores, hearing loss and hyperactivity (活动过 度 ). But the kind of air pollution thought to cause the most damage to human health in developing countries is that from small particles. Caused by vehicle exhausts, coal-burning smoke from factories and dust stirred up by vehicles, these p

39、articles easily find their way into peoples lungs. Studies the world over have shown a strong positive correlation between small particles in the air and death rates. 31 The first paragraph is engaged in_. （ A） describing several world famous cities in developing countries （ B） illustrating the seri

40、ousness of environmental problems in developing countries （ C） drawing a picture about the seriously polluted future world （ D） comparing the pollution problems in developed and developing countries 32 Environmentalists in the developed countries also worry about air pollution in poorer countries be

41、cause_. （ A） they are very kind-hearted and care much about the people there （ B） they are afraid that more people will immigrate into their countries （ C） they know that governments there are not taking effective measures to deal with the problem （ D） they fear that the pollution there may cause ha

42、rm to their own countries 33 Which of the following statements about indoor pollution in developing countries is NOT true? （ A） It is as damaging as smoking cigarettes. （ B） It is often caused by burning fuels in poorly designed stoves. （ C） It is mainly caused by smoking inside the ill-ventilated h

44、bloodstream （ D） heart 35 Americans usually consider themselves a friendly people. Their friendships, however, tend to be shorter and more casual than friendships among people from other cultures. It is not uncommon for Americans to have only one close friend during their lifetime, and consider othe

45、r “friends“ to be just social acquaintances. This attitude probably has something to do with American mobility and the fact that Americans do not like to be dependent on other people. They tend to “compartmentalize“ (划分 ) friendships, having “friends at work“, “friends on the softball team“, “family

46、 friends“, etc. Because the United States is a highly active society, full of movement and change, people always seem to be on the go. In this highly charged atmosphere, Americans can sometimes seem brusque (无礼的 ) or impatient. They want to get to know you as quickly as possible and then move on to

47、something else. Sometimes, early on, they will ask you questions that you may feel are very personal. No insult is intended; the questions usually grow out of their genuine interest or curiosity, and their impatience to get to the heart of the matter. And the same goes for you. If you do not underst

48、and certain American behavior or you want to know more about them, do not hesitate to ask them questions about themselves. Americans are usually eager to explain all about their country or anything “American“ in which you may be interested. So much so in fact that you may become tired of listening.

49、It doesnt matter, because Americans tend to be uncomfortable with silence during a conversation. They would rather talk about the weather or the latest sports scores, for example, than deal with silence. On the other hand, dont expect Americans to be knowledgeable about international geography or world affairs, unless those subjects directly involve the United States. Because the United States is not surroun
