In the past, man did not have to think about protection of the environment. There were very few people on the earth, and natural resources seemed to be unlimited.
Today things are different. The world has become too crowded. We are using up our natural resources too quickly, and at the same time we are polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals. If we continue to do this, human life on the earth will not survive.
Everyone realizes today that if too many fish are taken from the sea, there will soon be none left. Yet, with modern fishing methods, more and more fish are caught. We know that if too many trees are cut down, forests will disappear and nothing will grow on land. Yet, we continue to use more powerful machines to cut down more and more trees.
We realize that if rivers are polluted with waste products from factories, we will die. However, in most countries waste is still put into rivers, but there are few laws to stop this.
We also know that if the population of the countries in the world is to rise at the present rate in a few years, there will not be enough food.
What can we do to solve these problems?
If we eat more vegetables and less meat, there will be more food available for everyone. Land that is used to grow crops can feed five times more people than land where animals are kept.
Our natural resources will last longer if we learn to recycle them.
The world population will not rise so quickly if people use modern methods of birth control.
Finally, if all of us think about the problem, we will have a better and cleaner planet in the future.

A. the problems we are facing today about environment and the ways to solve them

B. In the past, there was no need for people to think about environmental protection.
C. If we keep on cutting trees, forests will disappear.

3.What is implied (暗示) in the passage?
A. Man is cleverer than any other animal.
B. Man will destroy himself if he doesn’t solve the problem.

In the past industries had more freedom than they have now, and they did not need to be as careful as they must today. They did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed. They did not have to pay much attention to the health and safety of the people who worked for them. Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them; often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.
Of course sometimes there were real disasters which attracted the attention of governments and which showed need for changes. Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore. At such times, there were inquiries into the causes of the disaster or the problems. New safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquiries; however，the new rules came too late to protect the people who had died or become seriously ill.
Today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers. In the U.S., for example, there is a department which tests new airplanes and gives warnings about possible problems. It also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow. Another department controls the foods and drugs that companies sell. A third department looks at the places where people work, and then reports any companies that are breaking laws which protect the health and safety of workers.
1.
According to Paragraph 1, compared with today, industries in the past __________.
A. were controlled less strictly

A. paid much attention to the results of scientific discoveries
B. seldom introduced safety laws before disasters occurred
C. hardly ever looked into the causes of tragedies
D. imposed safety rules as soon as disasters occurred
3.
The main topic of the passage is __________.
A. industries in the past and at present
B. changes in the development of industries
C. the protection of industrial workers and customers
D. the freedom of industries

People who traveled in the past had to put up with many discomforts which we do not have nowadays, and of course they traveled far more slowly. Roads were bad indeed and you often found you could not get along at all because of the mud. In dry weather many places were thick in dust and when it was stormy, trees might fall across the road and it was nobody’s business to clear them away.
Ordinary people traveled on foot or on horseback, but everyone who could afford it kept a private coach. There were public coaches too. called “stage coaches” because long journeys took several days and were done in stages, with stops over night at inns. Some stage, coaches ran only in the summer months. Others all the year around. They were very slow and crowded and passengers often became in on the way because of the swaying (摇晃).
Break downs were frequent, since many roads were not smooth. So a coach might very easily turn right over. Early in the century coach and wagon builders were encouraged to put very wide wheels on their vehicles. So that these might level the roads a little. But many people complained of this since it slowed travel down a good deal.
Most travelers during the 18th century wrote bitterly about the state of the roads. One visitor to Sussex took six hours to travel nine miles in his coach; another wrote to a friend that on time of his journeys “almost every mile was marked by the overturn of a carriage”.
1.Which of the following mainly prevented people from travelling fast in the past?
A. Falling trees B. Thick dust
C. Muddy road D. Many discomforts
2. The underlined word “them” in the first paragraph refers to _____.
A. the discomforts B. the blocked roads
C. the dusty places D. the fallen trees
3. Public coaches were called “stage-coaches” because ______.
A. the long journey was broken into several parts
B. they were slow and crowded
C. they stopped for meals at inns
D. they served public people only
4. The sentence “almost every mile was marked by the overturn of a carriage” suggests that ______.
A. the coaches were of poor quality
B. the writers liked to describe the road bitterly
C. the road condition was really poor
D. travelling about in the past was extremely slow
