21、The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and modern communication means (工具). Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.

Man has been polluting the earth. The more people have, the more pollution comes. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was polluted in one place, man moved to another place. But this is no longer true.

Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.

Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.

Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air. Pollution by sulfur dioxide (SO2) is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. We are sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.

The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must pay attention to the rise in pollution at the same time.

【1】According to the passage, ________, our world is becoming much smaller.

A．because of the rise in pollution

B．thanks to the science and technology development

C．because the earth is being polluted day and night

D．because the earth is blown away by the wind every year

B．The pollution of the earth grows as the world population becomes large.

C．The problem of the pollution is not so serious because there are not so many people living on the earth.

D．Going to work by bus or by bike is helpful in fighting against the air pollution.

【5】What is the main idea of the passage?

A．To explain to us what is air pollution.

B．To ask us to take care of the environment.

C．To tell us how people pollute the environment.

D．To show how people fight against the pollution.

22、   If you really wish to succeed in life, it is very important to be a team player. For example, in a basketball game, Michael Jordan is a great player, but he still has to work well with his team members to win a game, because every member of his team has a very important role and every member of the team is necessary to the success of the team.

The idea of teamwork also works well in other parts of our life. Teamwork is important in school and in college. Lab work and group programs are just some of the experiences calling for good teamwork with others. In the workplace, working together is also necessary for success, for no one person can build a railroad or manage an airline.

Being a team player does not mean that one person should not have any ideas of his own. He doesn’t have to agree with the other team members all the time. A good team member should not be afraid to think of new ideas even seemingly crazy ones. He needs to stick to (坚持) his ideas and share them with the other members of the team. Those crazy ideas may help the team achieve the goals.

Human beings are social creatures(生物). Like it or not, we all need to work with others as team players.

【1】If one wants to succeed, he should ________.

A．work with a great player

B．join in a famous team

C．work well with other people

D．become a leader in a team

【2】Every member of a team has a very important role and every member of the team is ________ to the success of the team.
