1、 Hundreds of years ago, life was harder than it is today. People didn’t have modern machines. There was no modern medicine, either.
Life today has brought new problems. 1.最严重的问题之一就是污染。Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. 2 .Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution to all living things in the world.
Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day. 3. Sometimes the polluted air is so thick that it is like a quilt over a city. We call this kind of “quilt” smog(雾霾).
Many counties are making rules to fight pollution. Factories must clean their water before it is thrown away. And they mustn’t let dirty smoke go into the air.
4.我们需要做许多其他的事情。We can put waste things in the dustbin and do
not throw them on the ground. 5.We can go to work by bus or by bike instead of driving a car. If there are fewer people driving, there will be less pollution.
Rules are not enough. Every person must do something to help fight pollution.

24、Is there a strange thing high up in the world's tallest mountains?If so, is it a big bear?Is it a monkey?Or is it a kind of man?
No one knows. This mystery has puzzled(困惑) the world for years.
In 1887, a mountain climber found large footprints in the snow. They looked like the footprints of a very large man. But men don't walk without shoes in the snow!
In 1906, another climber saw more footprints. Far off, he saw a very large animal standing on two legs. As he watched, it ran very quickly.
Fifteen years later,newspaper had new stories about the “something”.A mountain climber said he had seen the “snowman” walk slowly across the snow, far below him. He said it looked like a very large man. From then on, more and more people had stories to tell. But not until 1951 did a mountain climber bring back pictures of large footprints. The pictures showed clearly that the snowman walked on two legs. Could it be an ape(猿) man?The mystery grew! Someday we may find out just what it is that makes the large footprints.
根据短文内容,判断正(T)误(F)。
【1】The passage is mainly about the mystery of the snowman.
【2】The underlined word “footprints” in the passage means “a mark in the shape of a foot that a person or animal makes in or on a surface”.
【3】People were interested in the footprints because they looked like the footprints of a large man.
【4】The pictures of large footprints were taken by a mountain climber in 1951.
【5】Since a mountain climber first found the large footprints in the snow, the mystery of the snowman has puzzled the world for less than one hundred years.
