The problems of the American cities——pollution,

crime, transportation, a lack of planning——are bad,

but they were worse in the so-called “good old

days”, according to Dr. Charles Adrian. He gives

pollution from automobiles as one example. He agrees

that it may be bad now, but he states that there was

a lot of pollution from horses and other animals in

American cities in the 19th century.

“Most cities had their own slaughterhouses (屠宰场) where cows and pigs were killed a century ago.

They were careless about throwing out the remains of

the animals and that sort of thing,” he said. “And

no measure was taken for waste disposal.”

Some of the problems that bothered people living

in the cities during that period are still with us——poor planning, problems in low-income

neighborhoods, police relations, and public

transportation.

“Pollution was a very important problem for

city governments in the last century, particularly

with regard to water supplies,” Dr. Adrian said.

“They had some idea that water could be polluted,

but they didn’t know how.” Trying to get pure

water was a big problem.”

“People like to talk about the good old days,

but, actually, the cities of the 19th century were

dirty. Communicable diseases like smallpox were

great concerns. The infant death rate was high, and

there were other dangers as well.”

A. worse than the cities in the “good old days”

B. polluted by horses and other animals

C. more seriously polluted than in the “good old

D. better than the cities in the so-called “good

2. Which of the following can describe Dr. Adrian’s

attitude towards today’s cities

A. Disappointed. B. Worried C. Pessimistic. D.

Optimistic.

3. In the last paragraph, “communicable diseases”

refer to _______.

A. the diseases that cause people unable to

communicate

B. the diseases that result in deafness C. the diseases that spread from person to person

D. the diseases that result in blindness

of the cities in the “good old days”

A. A lack of waste disposal.

B. Poor planning, problems in low-income

neighborhoods, and public transportation.

The world’s population continues to grow. There

now are about 4 billion of us on earth. That could

reach 6 billion by the end of the century and 11

billion in a further 75 years. Experts have long

been concerned about such a growth. Where will we find the food, water, jobs, houses, school and

health care for all these people

A major new study shows that the situation may

be changing. A large and rapid drop in the world’s

birth rate has taken place during the past 10 years.

Families generally are smaller now than they were a

few years ago. It is happening in both developing

and industrial nations.

Researchers said they found a number of reasons

for this. More men and women are waiting longer to

get married and are using birth control devices and

methods to prevent or delay pregnancy. More women

are going to school or working at jobs away from

home instead of having children. And more

governments, especially in developing nations, now

support family planning programs to reduce

population grow.

China is one of the nations that have made great

progress in reducing its population growth. China

has already cut its rate of population growth by

about half since 1970.

Each Chinese family is now urged to have no more

than one child. And the hope is to reach a zero
