Question

   A recent study found people's lives are made shorter in North China. It showed the life expectancy (平均寿命) had been cut by 5. 5 yeays there. Researchers think that the heavy air pollution in China should be to blame (承担责任) . It's really the truth. Our government has already done something. However,it doesn’t seem to work so well.

   “Air pollution in China is doing harm to people's health. The harm is much more serious than we can imagine,” said Chen Yuyu of Beijing University,one of the researchers of this study.

   Dirty air brings serious problems in North China. In January this year,the air pollution was worse than that in other places. That was caused by rising temperature and waste gas (废气) from coal heating.

   Chinese government should strongly fight against air pollution. They should think of more proper ways to deal with the problem. People should be encouraged to take buses,ride bicycles or walk,instead of driving cars. The factories that pollute heavily should be closed.

   “We need to improve our environment,although it might be expensive. Protecting our environment means protecting ourselves”’ Li Hongbin,another researcher of the study said.

1. C推理判断题。文章第一句的“ A recent study found... ”提示该文章可能来自一项研究报告。

2. C细节理解题。由最后一段第一句“We need to improve our environment,although it might be expensive. ”可知， 李洪彬认为虽然可能要付出很大代价，我们仍需要减 少污染，以保护环境。

3. B主旨大意题。通读全文可知，第四段第一句“Chinese government should strongly fight against air pollution. ”是文章的主题句，也就是为了保护环境政府应该做更 多的事情，故选B项。
